Journalists generally assess our politics through the same lens as Democratic operatives, which assumes Democrats are the good guys and Republicans are not. For some in the corporate media, that’s not so much a conscious partisan calculation as it is the consequence of their shared cultural leftism.This is a key driving force behind our national discord. A better lens generally assumes politicians are the bad guys, whether they’re friendly to the press, progressive, Christian, rich, poor, or whatever. That’s not only more accurate, it’s more fair and more constructive for the so-called fourth estate, which exists to hold powerful people accountable on a nonpartisan basis. When journalists

If it's a "conspiracy theory" to be convinced that the 2020 election was stolen, I'm all in.

Way, WAY too much effort put Greene and the fraudulent election off as just the latest looney conspiracy theories that "those damned stupid folks out there away from DC" have. I don't know much about Greene, but nothing that was reported here makes me anything but supportive of her. Putting vote fraud out there with other "crazy conspiracy theories" is just Swamp Juice. We are supposed to calm down and
let the fine folks in DC sort this out, and stop believing that crazy stuff that they are ALL crooks and traitors.
Sorry. IMO, there was a substantial amount of vote fraud. I think the Dominion vote tabulation system was specifically DESIGNED for fraud. The voting tabulation machines ARE connected via wifi to the internet, and that is VERY, VERY wrong. I think there were hundreds of thousands of fraudulent paper ballots dumped into the systems in multiple states. Nothing is going to change my mind on that.
I never bought into Q. I looked at it for a few hours, twice. Came away feeling like reading about Nostradamus.....lots of vague, useless BS which could mean about ANYTHING and more likely means exactly nothing. Q was either a hoax or CIA disinformation psy ops, more likely the latter.
Clearly the "missile hit the Pentagon" and the "bombs blew up the twin towers" are absolute nonsense. I know from my own personal knowledge of how the twin towers were built that this is just how they would fail. I must admit, when I first heard that they "just fell down" I was incredulous, and my first thought as a structural engineer is "that can't happen". but, that was because I assumed that they were conventional
steel beam skyscrapers. I looked up how the twin towers were built, and they were nothing at all like a 1920s through 1950s skyscraper, which are a series of boxes made of steel girders. The World Trade Center towers were NOT made like that. The primary strength was their external steel skins, but those skins required the internal cross bracing from the steel floor beams to remain stable. The tens of thousands of gallons of flaming jet fuel heated those internal floor beams to their weakening temperature (1000 F, approx), and they failed. After a few floors worth of cross beams were gone, the exterior walls buckled and the ~18 upper stories dropped a few floors......and even though the floors below it were still relatively intact, the upper section now had the momentum to be a million ton hammer, acceleration to the ground. The twin towers went down due to their innovative design and the aircraft hits and the resulting huge fires.

Just because something is labelled a conspiracy theory, does that make it untrue? With the evil forced upon us by our own people and our own government in recent decades, I suspect not. I also suspect there is far more evil being done to us than even the theorists can fathom.

Good point #3. It is sort of a variation of the old "just because you are paranoid doesn't mean no one is after you".

"...fourth estate, which exists to hold powerful people accountable on a nonpartisan basis."
That was too much for me. I couldn't read any further, as I figured it must be some kind of satire after reading that.

Come on #2. Next you will be saying steel gets soft when heated for a period of time by combustibles fueled by jet fuel. I had my doubts, but then metallurgical expert, Rosy O'Donnell pointed out that steel doesn't melt, or something.
People are eager to believe 'stories' that explain horror that can't be controlled or understood. Evil adapts. Often faster than the statue quo can imagine. Ban knives, they use a broken CD held to the throat of an innocent. Arabs learning to fly big jets, but not making an effort to learn how to land them, should have been a big enough clue for even the slobs at FBI and CIA headquarters. A large jet, with it's fuel load, smashing it's way thru the exterior support structure of a building full of combustibles, is going to destroy that building. Especially one built without proper fire proofing at critical support joints and with inadequate sprinklers. Although no sprinkler made at the time those building were built, could have stopped that inferno. It's simple physics and basic chemistry. Absolutely no need for stupid theories about demolitions. Blame Gore for voting with airlines for less stringent screening at airports or the named slobs at the FBI and CIA who did nothing about behavior they are paid to stop.
