James Carville says Democrats can't afford
to lie like 'Republicans do' because they
would lose credibility

Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 5/4/2025 1:49:12 PM

Democratic political strategist James Carville expressed frustration with the state of his party on his podcast Thursday, arguing that Republicans are able to get away with lying while Democrats are held to a higher standard of credibility. Talking to guest Ryan Lizza, a journalist, he said, "People say to me all the time, ‘James, why don’t we just do like the Republicans do? Just stand up and lie?’ Because our f*****g people wouldn’t stand for it!" Carville said. "If I stood up and lied, you would be the first person to say, ‘James Carville lost all credibility last night when he said X, Y and Z.’"

Anyone who ever back-checks a political statement already knows that many Republicans have little credibility and most Democrats have none.

When all one appears to hear is Satan's voice, it becomes very difficult to recognize sin. I am not saying that Carville or the Dims are Satan, but it would do them good and the people who only listen to Dimocrat politicians and the leftist media, to listen more closely. Because the lies they tell have NEVER done their voters anything but harm.

Dems brand everything the Republicans say as a "lie" and then claim that the Republicans "get away with lying" because no one believes the dems. Dems have been caught lying egregiously for a long time. Sometimes it has taken a while to expose them but more recently the words barely leave a dem's mouth when they are proven to be a lie. Their credibility is nonexistant. What Carville is ranting and whining about is that he and his ilk can no longer get away with their lies, including the lies that Republicans are lying. Carville might say such things to the dem Kool-Aid drinkers and get a good reception but most people are laughing at him. He has no audience.

When he stands (instead of slithering on his belly), it's a wonder that Serpenthead's trousers don't immediately crumple onto his shoes, because he's projecting his ass off. Completely off. There's nothing there to hold up slacks or undergarments. Then gravity does its thing. Projecting their faults onto Republicans is what Democrats do ... accuse the opposition of what they habitually do, a thousand times worse. What hypocrites. These people are not what they claim to be. Projection is just another variety of lie.

CNN thought it was a good idea to air a sympathetic interview with a Sinaloa Cartel member, and it shockingly didn’t go the way they wanted. X users are dragging the network for asking the anonymous gang member how he felt about President Donald Trump labeling him and his group terrorists after Trump vowed to crack down on drug trafficking. Perhaps the most shocking part of the bizarre interview, filmed in a secret location in Mexico, was that the gangster said that Trump has his “respect.”

Pro-migration advocates are denouncing and urging illegal migrants to reject President Donald Trump’s offer of $1,ooo and free airline tickets to leave the country. “This option might be WORSE for people who take advantage of it,” claimed Aaron Reichlin, a pro-migration advocate for the Immigration Council advocacy group. “For people [illegal migrants] in immigration court, it would likely mean a deportation order. For others [not detained for deportation], it would abandon clear options for staying.” The economic payoff from subsidized re-migration home could be a huge economic windfall for ordinary Americans who will see better wages, more workplace investment, and cheaper housing.

Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) is pushing amnesty for millions of illegal aliens in the United States in response to President Donald Trump’s newly announced self-deportation program. On Monday, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced the launch of a program that will provide illegal aliens with a $1,000 stipend after they have proven to federal officials that they self-deported from the United States using the CBP Home mobile app. Similar self-deportation programs, Breitbart News reported, have been adopted by European countries such as Germany, Denmark, and Sweden with much success in cutting illegal immigration. In response, Gallego suggested he opposed self-deportations and instead offered an amnesty plan

Liberals will tell you that all illegal immigrants are just good-hearted people who want to work as maids, gardeners, crop pickers, and do the “jobs that Americans don’t want to do.” We always knew that sounded kind of racist and wasn’t true, but Donald Trump has fully exposed the lies of the Biden administration by proving that—despite Ole Joe’s assertion that he couldn’t stop the human tsunami—it could actually be done relatively quickly. Which is course, is exactly what Trump did. More and more news has been coming out about how among the millions of illegals Biden welcomed into our country, there are numerous gangbangers and vicious criminals.

There have been a couple of aphorisms the press loves to trot out to the public as a means of describing – or more accurately deflecting away from - their actions and practices. The first is “We are not the enemy of the people.” Another is that they do not need to give equal airtime to issues because if they give Republicans a fair shot at coverage they are platforming what the press deems to be misinformation. Giving both sides of a story will legitimize the “wrong” side, in their elevated thinking. Now keep these chestnuts in mind

MSNBC's "Morning Joe" had to retract a false claim by former FBI official Frank Figliuzzi suggesting FBI Director Kash Patel spent more time partying at nightclubs than working. It marks another embarrassing blunder that underscores the network's vulnerability to airing unverified allegations made by Figliuzzi. Figliuzzi, a top FBI official during Obama’s first term and current NBC News analyst, made a sensational claim on Friday's show, suggesting there is "chaos" under Patel's leadership and that he spends significantly more time at nightclubs than he does working. "Reportedly, he's (Patel) been visible at nightclubs far more than he has been on the seventh floor of the Hoover building," he claimed without evidence.

TEL AVIV, Israel — Israel approved plans Monday to capture the entire Gaza Strip and to stay in the Palestinian territory for an unspecified amount of time, two Israeli officials said, a move that, if implemented, would vastly expand Israel’s operations there and likely draw fierce international opposition. Israeli Cabinet ministers approved the plan in an early morning vote, hours after the Israeli military chief said the army was calling up tens of thousands of reserve soldiers. The new plan, which the officials said was meant to help Israel achieve its war aims of defeating Hamas and freeing hostages held in Gaza, also calls for hundreds of thousands of Palestinians

common talking point trotted out to defend congressional Republicans’ failure to advance conservative priorities is that the party has slim majorities, and therefore, trying to pass anything outside of the usual “uniparty” slop is next to impossible. But if that’s true, why does the same dynamic exist in states where Republicans have much larger legislative majorities and control the governor’s mansion?
