Remember that time Fox argued "No reasonable person would think Tucker Carlson's show is news!"? Well, it seems that argument is getting its day in the sun again with Sydney Powell as she seeks to dismiss the $1.3B Dominion lawsuit -



Basically, all the things Powell was claiming were facts? Weren't actually facts, and she never said they were, and nobody would ever believe they were, so please don't sue her for $1.3B.

So if that's the argument they're going with, that means that she intentionally filed false claims and lied to the courts? Probably not as much as $1.3B, but still kinda bad.

But then the real fun comes in; porque no los dos?

"No reasonable person would think Tucker Carlson's show is news!"

Ah, good times...good times...

Say Edge- was Carlson the only person on FOX News to make election fraud claims? And also, how do you feel about leading questions?

Oh? I've only seen something from a few local Democrats in Texas. I generally don't seek out PV's garbage, if it comes across my radar so be it, but I ain't wasting time with idiots that forget they're logged into their actual LinkedIn accounts when working on a "target", letting the "target" know that PV is creepin on their account. That or just like, you know, have a whole planning session recorded on a "targets" voicemail because they're galaxy brains and forgot to hang up.

These idiots would be far more hilarious if people didn't take them seriously.

I saw it trending on Twitter and decided to see what it was about. Seems to be a mix of that and their New York lawsuit.

Ah, I never pay much attention to Twitter trends and try not to dig deep into political Twitter. I regret it almost every single time I do : |

Amusing time! Trump apparently gave his "list" of Trump approved candidates for 2024.

DeSantis is in there, so is Hawley. Cruz and Paul are both there, same with Huckabee Sanders and SD Governor Noem.

Conspicuously absent from this list? His former running-mate and vice president, Mike Pence.

Yeah I'm regretting it too, lol. Seeing a bunch of the same tools who argued that the Inhumane conditions on the border were 'Punishment for Criminals' immediately 180 and shit their pants over Biden's 'Cruel and Inhumane treatment of poor innocent souls :,,,,(' makes me want to hit something with a brick. The utter shamelessness that they can keep getting away with because their target demographic has the critical thinking ability of toast just infuriates the fuck outta me..

So apparently the kraken lady lawyer in her defamation case used the Fox news excuse. No reasonable person would believe anything she was saying so she can't be guilty of defamation.

"Your honor, nobody could reasonably believe the multiple cases I brought in front of state and federal courts were serious!"
"So, Ms. Powell, are you saying you intentionally wasted the courts time?"

[Breccia]

His former running-mate and vice president, Mike Pence.

Would it matter? Pence is not an idiot. He knows his political life is basically over. I don't see him even running for Senator, Rep, or governor. I think he's going to hide in shame, possibly having a secret affair with Mrs. Buttersworth.

(checks news)

...oh. I guess not that last part.

Mrs Butterworth...all woman.

Add Ron Johnson to, "Republican politicians that know neither their history nor their geography.", in his rush to dismiss the significance of anthropogenic climate change he fell back on the "THE CLIMATE IS ALWAYS CHANGING!" argument and used....the country of Greenland for his example.

In his view, Greenland got its name because it used to be green!

“You know, there’s a reason Greenland was called Greenland,” Mr. Johnson told WKOW-TV in Madison back then. “It was actually green at one point in time. And it’s been, you know, since, it’s a whole lot whiter now so we’ve experienced climate change throughout geologic time.”

Before walking it back just a touch -

“I could be wrong there, but that’s always been my assumption that, at some point in time, those early explorers saw green,” Mr. Johnson said. “I have no idea.”

He really should have started and ended with the bolded, because he'd at least be honest and accurate with that statement. Because the truth -

Since most of Greenland is covered in ice, snow and glaciers, the Arctic nation is mostly white. So how did it get its name “Greenland” when it’s not really green? It actually got its name from Erik The Red, an Icelandic murderer who was exiled to the island. He called it “Greenland” in hopes that the name would attract settlers. But according to scientists, Greenland was actually quite green more than 2.5 million years ago. A new study reveals that ancient dirt was cryogenically frozen for millions of years underneath about 2 miles of ice.

Is that it wasn't green when it was "Discovered", nor for the 2.5 million years prior. It was just some branding to attract settlers. You know branding, like naming something "Trump University" to make people think it's like, an actual university!

More like a murderer tried to grift a bunch of settlers... which seems par for the course in how it was used by Johnson... oh and the reason his name is Johnson, is because he is a giant dick... explorers looked at his forefathers and based on what they saw, called them a bunch of dicks... at least that’s what I assume... I have no idea...

Monday's quick report:

45,748 new cases and 636 deaths. Both a biiiit lower than last Monday but once again, Sundays and Mondays don't have reliable numbers overall. Spring Break is causing issues with Florida. Whodathunkit?

Stay safe, folks.

[Machismo]

At least the Proud Boys are trying to keep busy, by marching against gay people in Oregon. It's good to know they are just as homophobic, as they are racist.

Trump loves them for it.

If any of you thought... who in their right mind could possibly believe Trump’s election fraud claims... you might have just qualified to be Sidney Powell’s lawyer:

According to the perpetrator of Trump’s lie... what percentage of GOP is unreasonable? Would it qualify as a basket of unreasonable?

...which, of course, begs the question of why she knowingly wasted the court's time with it.

I look forward to LegalEagle's assessment on the matter.

[Shadowferal]

Trump said he had considered naming her as a special counsel to investigate voter fraud allegations.

...my head hurts.

[Breccia]

...which, of course, begs the question of why she knowingly wasted the court's time with it.

I imagine that's the very first thing that will be used to destroy her defense. Simply put, she'll either have to defend the lawsuit on the merits, or basically beg to be disbarred.

oh the old Alex Jones / Fox News defense huh?

Whelp its 1-1 wonder if it will pull ahead with a winning record!

I do not celebrate the loss of life.

That said, Eric Spinato, the head booker and senior story editor for the Fox Business Network, died over the weekend, the network said Monday.

I have no reason to believe Mr. Spinato personally directed FOX News' direction when it came to COVID stories, including Trump downplaying it, "hoax", etc etc. But I have every reason to suspect that, with FOX News taking a direct hit due to the COVID outbreak, that loss will change their direction in the future. We'll see if that happens.

By the way, there was a mass shooting in Colorado, 10 dead including a police officer. So...thoughts on the motive? Because based on the last four months, I think there's a pretty safe guess.

Saw the story on Facebook from someone commenting on it from Fox News, and ho fuck do people there have issues. The usual "if libs had guns this wouldn't happen" and the usual other shit.
