I wonder if there's anyone collecting a list of things Trump is being vindicated on.

Amazon is buying some of the best PR it can through the courageous and upstanding Fourth Estate of Journalism.

In a newsletter sponsored by Amazon, increasingly desperate for goodwill from lawmakers, Politico allowed the company to advertise a ranking from the Progressive Policy Institute, which named Amazon to the top of its “Investment Heroes” list, citing infrastructure investments and $15-an-hour starting wage.

In 2019, Fast Company reported “Facebook, Google, and Amazon all donated last year to the Progressive Policy Institute (PPI), a pro-business think tank that regularly sponsors briefings for Democratic elected officials.”

Amazon and other Big Tech companies funding a think tank to create and publicize research that can be carried by media outlets and newsletters... that you also fund. This particular news outlet was funded by Scamazon and operated by Politico, but Axios has a similar setup with much of the same Big Tech players involved in a near identical scheme.

How Amazon Used Politico Playbook To Trumpet An Award From A Think Tank It Funded

Last week, Politico's popular "Playbook" newsletter produced a particularly telling example of Beltway subterfuge.

Liberals aghast as American TV news host says ‘traitors’ who stole election from Trump can face ‘execution’

One America News (OAN) host Pearson Sharp triggered plenty of Donald Trump critics when he argued on the network that thousands were behind a “coup” against the former president and should be possibly executed.

One America News (OAN) host Pearson Sharp triggered plenty of Donald Trump critics when he argued on the network that thousands were behind a “coup” against the former president and should be possibly executed.
During a segment discussing the 2020 presidential election on OAN, known for being a heavily conservative network, Sharp implied there were thousands involved in “undermining the election” and branded them “traitors.”
He started by saying there were “widespread problems with voter integrity” in the election. Officially, these claims are denied over lack of evidence. Sharp then discussed potential multiple state audits of election results and asked what will happen in the end to those “responsible for overthrowing the election?”

“When all the dust settles from the audit in Arizona and the potential audits in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Nevada, and Wisconsin, what happens to all these people who are responsible for overthrowing the election?” Sharp then asked. “What are the consequences for traitors who meddled with our sacred democratic process and tried to steal power by taking away the voices of the American people? What happens to them?”
Sharp then offered up an answer himself, one that triggered moral outrage as the clip spread across social media.
“Well, in the past, America had a very good solution for dealing with such traitors: Execution,” Sharp said.
The host went on to accuse “foreign governments,” including China and Pakistan, of “meddling” in the last US presidential election, making anyone involved in alleged fraud a traitor, “the highest of all crimes.”

It is Russian.
I don't trust it.
I trust it more then CNN thiugh

Well, it is a pretty stark statement only insofar that he seems to be the first person with a larger audience to claim what the ordinary consequences of what we have seen would be, in a somewhat normal state. Obviously you wouldn't get thousands of executions under a civilian court system, since there would be a wide number of degrees of culpability for those involved. Still, we also do all understand - I hope - that none of this, even the mildest versions, will come to pass. The game is over.

Here's the video that RT was talking about.



The libtards are adamant in thinking that he meant that all Biden voters should be executed.

More media lies lol

Good thing only 29% of the public trusts them.

Gee, I wonder why

Gee, I wonder why

The idea that 29% still trusts them terrifies me.

 

[Rocinante]

The idea that 29% still trusts them terrifies me.

The stats I have seen shows it's mostly boomers.

I'd expect the 29% to go down as time goes on.

 

[Zachowon]

One also needs to remember twitter is 95% that 29%

Another ESPN analyst named Jalen Rose is seeing racism... mainly in that the only reason a White Player, Kevin Love, is on the team is because they don't want to send an all-Black Basketball team to the Olympics.



This is a few days after ESPN Journalist Jay Williams stated the Boston Celtics finally had a Coach of Color, Ime Udoka. for the first time in their franchises seventy five year history. This is untrue because Ime Udoka was actually the FIFTH Person of Color that coached the Celtics and in fact, the Boston Celtics were the first team to have a Coach of Color when they hired the legendary Bill Russell... back in 1966.

Jay Williams later stated his account was hacked. Because hackers go around to journalist Twitter accounts and have them post incorrect takes on sports history...

I am adamant that the Onion or the Babylon Bee has written this article before. It's so stupid I can barely believe it's real.

My parents are among them, unfortunately.

The outcome of feminism.

Lets check in on jim sterling

This sort of thing is only to be expected from a sociopath like Jim Sterling; the man has always been an abusive jackass, so him virtue signaling like this (as he has for the past decade or so) was only ever about him having an excuse to attack people, as well as a defense whenever he was called out for his appalling behavior.

It's a she now.

 

[Husky_Khan]

It's.

FTFY

 

[Terthna]

It's a she now.

Of course it is. It's what people like him do in order to garner praise and attention from their equally-damaged peers; they all eventually embrace trans-trenderism. Well, it's not as if I have one single iota of respect for the narcissistic fat bastard, so I've no reason to show him any by using his "preferred gender pronoun".

I just wanted to add that little bit
