For years, the left advanced utter untruths for cheap partisan purposes that it knew at the time were all false.
And now when caught, they just shrug and say they were lying all along.
Once it was known that the first COVID-19 case originated in or near a Chinese communist virology lab engineering gain-of-function deadly viruses — with help from Western agencies — the left went into full persecution mode. They damned as incompetent, racist and conspiratorial any who dared follow logic and evidence to point out that the Chinese government and its military were both culpable for the virus and lying.

It seems democrat voters like lying cheating politicians. Even when they are getting ripped off too. I can't understand it. Hopefully the wake up, they are dragging everybody down with them.

The only inaccuracy in the article is that Biden won the 2020 election. Massive cheating brought him those imaginary 81 million votes. The COVID lab leak would have not been possible if Fauci and the government had not funded the Wuhan lab. Why is Fauci still breathing air and why haven't we shut down all of the gain-of-function labs at our universities and in foreign countries. I hope Elon finds that budget item soon.

I think everyone got the same talking points when it came to COVID. Have any of you all heard the phrase social distancing before covid? I never did and then suddenly it was all over the news, comments etc.
I will never say the phrase again, and I hold the newspapers and the MSM in utter contempt.

There are two parties to share blame: the liars and those who believed the liars.
A liar is not dangerous when no one trusts the words they say.

Bubba answered that question years ago when he said " You gotta do what you gotta do".

They finally admitted that the 6' distancing was just a number pulled out of thin air...aka, they lied. They are incapable of telling the truth if the truth harms their communist dreams.

The sentence from the article that irritates me most is "No one involved has ever been held legally accountable." (and likely never will be)

I remember seeing part of an older interview with one of Fauci's buddies back in Nov. 2019 years before Covid came out. He stated that Fauci sent money to this Chinese lab to do research that was not allowed in the U.S. The lab was not rated for and did not have the equipment or personnel to handle the kind of research it was doing. He even stated that a lab leak was going to happen at some point because of the lax security at the lab. I wonder why this interview was never shown or referred to during the entire Covid ordeal.

I don't think the Left understands the concept of "lying".

The border is closed, men can become women (and all the fallacy that goes with that belief) and there is no waste, fraud and abuse. Throw in the covid "vaccine" prevents covid and prevents you from passing it on (basically all the covid crap they fed us). These are my favorites. They lie every second of everyday. Lie, lie some more, keep on lying, experiment with different ways of lying, point fingers at the others and insist they are the liars, lie about lying - rinse and repeat. Until the people rise up and no longer support them not much will change. When AOC and Bernie Sanders are your showcased "leaders" then you have a problem. Time to recognize that problem and push them off a cliff.

I think there's truth in the saying..."made in China"...because covid was made in china...with help from fauci...and the commies used it to stop our economy and cause fear...BUT... something happened on their way to America...President Trump shut down travel from china to the USA...so the globalists had to devise a new plan...in walks biden...and the election 2020 coup by the democrats ...so they could get rid of President Trump....BUT President Trump came back stronger than ever.....

The only change I am waiting for is the point when I can talk to a doctor about my bad side effects from the vaccine and he will actually talk to me instead of just staring at the wall and then changing the subject. One doctor actually just briskly turned and walked out of the room.
I have managed to have several whispered conversations with low level nurses who have told me about things they have witnessed.

FTA: "The legacy media permanently ruined its reputation and will likely never be seen as credible again."
Too bad this is not necessarily correct. I know several individuals who still listen to the lying legacy media clowns and surmise there are millions of Americans who still listen to them. This has to be so considering all the absolute idiocy occurring across the country to this day. I think there are fewer people listening to the lying Enemedia, but still WAY too many cannot seem to ween themselves from the prolific prevaricators masquerading as journalists.
I just had one of these diehard legacy media lovers blowup on me the other day, and in the middle of their rant came up with this jewel - "They're just doing their jobs!" Oh the humanity of that statement. Tried to get another to watch Higbie, Van Sustern, Schmitt, or Finnerty on Newsmax just to get a different perspective. Whelp, that ain't happenin'. This one said "I don't need anyone to tell me what to think." Yeah, they don't need any facts to make decisions. SMDH I don't think there's much hope for them coming to grips with the fact they've been fooled, lied to, and used for decades.
