Hmm. I went through my posts on this thread and I couldn't find where I referenced the Pelosi situation. Maybe I missed it. Could you point it out? Why do feel the need to be so defensive about it? I don't care about it at all. Don't care about the Democrats trying to politicize it. Don't care...

Snopes fact checks satire. I ain't kidding you. If a self appointed truth arbiter feels compelled to respond to memes and comedic commentary, there's something wrong with them. If they feel compelled to respond to the satire of mostly one side of the narrative I'd say that's also pretty sus...

I don't think you understand what my position is. You really don't. I'm not obligated to defend someone I disagree with simply because they oppose someone else I disagree with. Violence is bad m'kay? If the prosecution can prove beyond a reasonable doubt that an individual or individuals are...

How many citations are needed before one can have legitimate misgivings about certain media/fact checking sites? Two, five, ten a hundred? This was one example. The particular topic isn't what was important. The methods used are what was important. They can be applied and are applied across...

You have no good reason to have problems with Newsguard. If you did, you would cite them. Or maybe you wouldn't. It doesn't matter. Since the power balance in this situation is unequal do whatever you like. https://tnc.news/2022/10/18/reuters-fact-check-pfizer/ Breaks down the nasty games fact...

I have my problems with your fact checkers and the news sources you cite. So does Randall. With good reason. At an impass we are hmm? (Insert Yoda emoticon here)

Fox News and MSNBC both fail to uphold basic journalistic standards. [Link no longer works.} All my references are Newsguard certified. Yours are not.

I know what happened. You failed to show how Trump orchestrated the whole thing. The officers that opened the doors didn't testify. Trump was not in command of the Capitol police. Steven Sund was. He resigned. Have all the violent rioters been tried yet? There's tons, hundreds, of cases yet...

People who rioted, vandalized property or attacked the police need to be charged, tried and put in jail. Hapless folks who wandered into the Capitol after the doors were opened for them by the police need to be set free. There is video of that too. Oddly, no one asked those officers to testify...

Links behind paywalls again? Fiddlesticks. Oh, I was watching alright. I was also paying attention to the games played by the committee. If Trump had done the things he was accused of he would have been charged by now. Name one crime Trump committed for which there is enough evidence for...

Ad hominem attacks on valid news sources is not a fact check. That's all you have. I expect that's all you will ever have. So disappointed. You also failed to produce hard documentation of your claims. I did. Text messages. Emails. Actual Government documents. The Jan 6th hearings were/are a...

You got a fact check for that? The difference between challenging the results of an election and interference on social media platforms by government agencies to influence the narrative prior to an election is vast. The challenges were presented in the courts and rejected. Trump's statements...

The Intercept. Newsguard certified. Fact check this...... https://theintercept.com/2022/10/31/social-media-disinformation-dhs/ From Timcast also Newsguard certified.

Link behind a paywall. Boo.

Reality can be checked but it cannot be mocked. Not without consequences.
