It's like you have a jar full of Everybody Does It and you're using a trowel to smear it everywhere, get it all over, spread it out plplpppoppblbpblblblllb
It's required when everyone else carries around their jar of "the only bad people are the ones I don't like"

That was kind of a stupid post my dude
Give him a break. He's still trying to pretend that the GOP hasn't gone completely off the rails in the last few years, and that both parties now present the same level of danger to democracy. Shilling like that ain't easy, is it really a surprise that braindead hit and run shit like that is the best he can come up with?

For 8 months this committee has been sold as "Exposing the truth about Trump's orchestrating of the greatest assault on American democracy" I figured we'd get something more than a partisan circle jerk.
Jesus, the executions happened yesterday, did you sleep through it all?
I thought you were following this.

Come on. Get it together

Any body know of a podcast that’ll give me an “up to now” on this topic? Preferably as little biased as possible.

I dont listen to them anymore since I'm a progressive who has had enough of Saagars takes for a lifetime, but if you want to get a relatively unbiased take on the hearings, the Breaking Points youtube channel will probably do a decent job at covering this compared to MSM

Yeh. Saagar is a right-wing populist and Krystal is a left-wing populist

So they share some views and disagree on others

Most importantly, their views on policy and culture topics aren't biased by the standard "my team vs your team" narratives

They may not be for you, but they are worth a shot. Will have much better opinions and analysis than Fox, CNN, or MSNBC for sure

I’m gonna be golfing with my son so won’t be able to watch live. Hoping for something good though. I’m reading there’s new info coming out so…
I was wondering if thats what you meant by "cooking up"

Yeh, I keep hearing theres going to be new stuff, but I'm don't expect much

I have a feeling that they will try to focus on the alternate electors plan as well as the texts about saying to keep the meetings a secret, which plays into the conspiracy angle

But ultimately, I doubt establishment politicians are going to try to penalize or lock up other establishment politicians since they are all actually friends behind-the-scenes

I doubt public opinion changes much regardless of what is or isn't presented

I'll be tuning in regardless tho lol
