“About Ten Paragraphs In It Notes In Passing That Of The More Than 45 People The Reporters Spoke To

“About ten paragraphs in it notes in passing that of the more than 45 people the reporters spoke to for the piece over several months “most of those who said Biden performed poorly were Republicans.” The use of Johnson and McCarthy as the two main fact witnesses is extraordinary on a few levels. The first and most obvious is that “Biden archrivals currently running against him say he’s way old and losing his edge” doesn’t have quite the punch of the article as presented. The other is that Biden famously managed to overmatch McCarthy in the debt ceiling negotiations that led to his fall from power and Biden’s personal lobbying seems to have played a key role in the eventual passage of Ukraine aid this spring. In other words, if Biden’s really losing it, he still managed to handle both guys pretty well.”

Breaking from the Journal: Kev McCarthy and Mike Johnson Say Biden’s WAY Old

A couple of lying clowns told lies about President Biden, and the WSJ dutifully reprinted the lies without context or criticism.

This shit is crazy. Huge papers like the WSJ and NYT are just constantly presenting right wing lies – easily disproved lies, at that – as a matter of opinion, not a colossal and horrifyingly effective effort to gaslight and mislead voters.

It’s exhausting, and now that the Washington Post is on its way to being consumed by the British tabloid cancer its new editorial team is bringing to America from the Murdoch Bullshit factory, it’s only going to get worse.

“What we’re witnessing online during and in the aftermath of these hurricanes is a group of people desperate to protect the dark, fictitious world they’ve built. Rather than deal with the realities of a warming planet hurling once-in-a-generation storms at them every few weeks, they’d rather malign and threaten meteorologists, who, in their minds, are “nothing but a trained subversive liar programmed to spew stupid shit to support the global warming bullshit,” as one X user put it. It is a strategy designed to silence voices of reason, because those voices threaten to expose the cracks in their current worldview. But their efforts are doomed, futile. As one dispirited meteorologist wrote on X this week, “Murdering meteorologists won’t stop hurricanes.” She followed with: “I can’t believe I just had to type that.” What is clear is that a new framework is needed to describe this fracturing. Misinformation is too technical, too freighted, and, after almost a decade of Trump, too political. Nor does it explain what is really happening, which is nothing less than a cultural assault on any person or institution that operates in reality. If you are a weatherperson, you’re a target. The same goes for journalists, election workers, scientists, doctors, and first responders. These jobs are different, but the thing they share is that they all must attend to and describe the world as it is. This makes them dangerous to people who cannot abide by the agonizing constraints of reality, as well as those who have financial and political interests in keeping up the charade.”

Dial H for HERO was a great mid 80′s back up feature in a lot of Superboy comics, this series was fun for me.  I don’t remember how long I kept up with it though. Most likely because 03 to 05 was an utter shit show in my life and kind of PTSD.
