They do have gaslighting down pat.

Actually, it is their opinion, the same as people believe the earth is flat. The REAL issue here is the DEMS / FBI had asked MSM to suppress the story.

In other words, none of them reacted to anything Taibbi presented. They simply attacked the messenger instead, without even trying to cite the reasons they are attacking him or pointing out what is wrong with the message Taibbi presented.

This is what the once-great Democrat party has descended to. When they can't refute the message, or even answer it at all, they attack the messenger instead, and try to pretend they have some valid point to make.
Yeah the left is an echo-chamber. They get their DNC talking points and run with it in the media. There are tons of examples on YouTube of news anchors using the exact same catch phrases across dozens of outlets.

Almost as if they are marching in lockstep to an agreed narrative like the MSM did for other shoddy journalistic hit pieces.


Talking points were beamed down from the DNC mother ship.

3) Claiming that as long as the government just uses its power and influence to stifle or promote certain information...but doesn't do it directly is not a violation of free speech because um...it's a private company. Yet more gaslighting.
Okay, here's the problem. Three years ago the contents of the lap top were given to federal investigators. Which also means that that information was also given to the Senate Republican lead Ron Johnson, Chuck Grassley investigation by the senate Homeland Security and Finance committees. Ron Johnson, you know that same Ron Johnson that passed that love note with fake electors for Trump vs Biden, was chomping at the bit to dig up dirt on Joe Biden before the 2020 election. Guess what. They found no wrong doing by Joe Biden.

So, you want to fall for yet another conspiracy theory and lame go nowhere investigation by the new Congress at tax payer expense, or do you want the new Congress to focus on getting things done?

You know the votes are not there in the Senate to remove Biden right? So what's the point?

Elon Musk is losing 4 million dollars a day on Twitter. He needs something sensational to bolster his revenue. Why not charge $8 dollars a month with the promise of yet another conspiracy theory to entice the rabid? Go read the report. It's public knowledge for anyone interested.

Those are laughable and just shows the coordinated collusion of MSM and the DNC.

There are others where all the left propaganda outlets were using "existential threat" and "threats to Democracy" about those crazy radical Republicans.

I want the truth, simply put. While recognizing I might not ever get it. At times in history, people who call themselves journalists have cared about shining a light on the truth. Not redirecting the light away from it, so "Congress can get things done."

I don't want the Congress to get anything done anyway. I think we're at the point where Congress "getting things done" is actively harmful to the American people.

A possible investigation into Hunter laptop could implicate others including the 'big guy' into money laundering and tax evasion and selling government influence.

I am sure the left will spin and toss and turn thinking of a message to deflect the true story...just like the Wuhan lab and the Twitter stories to throw the 2020 election into Biden favor by suppressing the damaging Hunter Biden laptop story.

Man you are full of surprises.
Republican trying to find dirt on Biden....wow..After the Steel dossier paid for by the DNC and Hillary digging up dirt on Trump. Which turn out to be just that.
Tax payer expense? Another just WOW....after nearly two years of Jan 6th committee and four years of two impeachments and the one sided 'investigations' you have the nerve to make such a comment about cost to the taxpayer.

With the republican taking the House that is exactly what I want....get nothing done by further a Biden costly agenda.

Why exactly why is Hunter Biden's laptop a conspiracy theory? I think its a leftist conspiracy to deny the laptop story just as it was with the Steel dossier and two impeachments.
Read this and watch the video:

Do you think that video is evidence of an impeachable offense.

After 6 years of witch hunts and persecutions of Trump....now it's suddenly time for Congress "to focus on getting things done". Yeah, lol. You libs are a laff riot.

<Insert clown emoji>
