Diary of disturbing disinformation and dangerous delusions
This headline:
“Trump’s ‘won’t have to vote’ remarks undermine our elections”
We say: Donald Trump’s obvious joke in a recent speech that if Christians “get out and vote” in this election then “we’ll have it fixed so good you’re not gonna have to vote” is a clear reference to undoing the damage of the Biden years, not election-rigging.
How obtuse — or disingenuous — can you get?
Spot the difference:
“There’s no question I’m in favor of banning fracking.”
vs.
“Trump’s false claims about fracking bans are an obvious attempt to distract from his own plans to enrich oil and gas executives at the expense of the middle class.”
We say: Look, if Harris wants to flip-flop on a fracking ban because she knows it’s pure political poison, that’s her business. (And even good policy!)
But this is 1984-style memory-holing. It’s even more shameful that journos at Politico and elsewhere are going along with it.
This claim:
“[JD Vance’s] natalism . . . comes from an authoritarian playbook, that there need to be more ‘white children.’”
— MSNBC contributor Molly Jong-Fast, Tuesday
We say: Uh, if Vance wants more white children, he’s falling down on the job.
Trump’s veep pick has three biracial kids with his Indian-American wife Usha.
The only racist here is Russiagate promoter and nepo baby Jong-Fast.
This prediction:
“[Trump] will weaponize the Department of Justice against his political enemies.”
We say: No, that’s what Team Biden does. Like when the White House sicced the FBI on parents who protested woke nonsense in schools. Or Catholics. Textbook projection, Kam.
