JFC, where was this sort of tenacity when it came to the Russia Hoax, or "fine ppl on both sides" or "Trump wants to execute Liz" or ... ???

Finish the thought!
Why break thru that particular idea? To take one more step down the path to Marxism. Marx saw the importance of dissolving the nuclear family for the sake of the village, or some other silly, dystopian idea with a 0% chance of success.
Google "Tiger Mom."

As a general rule, you're right. But this remark by Jackson makes her an exception to the rule.
Racism is her hammer, and everything she sees is a nail.
It's the wrong lens through which to view a trans case, Jesse.

Someone should ask her exactly what rural area she is talking about. I have many friends out in the middle of nowhere, and they ALL have access to TV, cable, and the Internet. Cellular coverage is a different story, but good grief, the gaslighting never ends with this woman.

This is lying by omission.
The FBI had 26 spies interspersed in the crowd, none of whom were authorized to engage in any form of lawbreaking.
Why not report the news instead of presenting a slanted perspective that favors Team Blue?

Ken, watch the HD slo-mo vid. It will change your mind, like it did mine.
It is appalling the amount of gaslighting our media has engaged in, and I bought most of it, like you did. But then I watched what happened for myself.

Honest Q, Ben: as a journalist, do you have any interest in finding out who 'the big guy' is?
As recently as 10 years ago, we would have had dozens of journalists from both sides of the aisle investigating.

This smacks of pure revenge via pure power politics, Robert. It's as childish as it is biblical, and of course it's anti-democratic.

This is beyond grotesque for soooo many reasons:
1. Interracial black/white crime is 80/20 black on white. Think about that.
2. Police shoot FAR more white than black ppl. Disproportionately you might say, and I will agree, but the disproportionality disappears completely

Murdering an innocent person is wrong. And the dude WAS innocent both legally and morally. Period.
