    her mother called in to CNN a few months after the assault and talked about it and she has multiple witnesses who said she told them about it in the 1990s as well

    in some way

    she was quite specific about the manner in which Biden raped her

      This is a few degrees removed from the “Obama faked his birth certificate” line, where people tried to claim senior officials in Hawaii were part of a conspiracy dating back to the 60s to make a black man President.

      Of course, it’s hard to get people to even recall the Larry King interview happened, nevermind its validity.

    It was a woman who goes against and criticizes American/Democrat leadership, so she is a “lunatic” . Convenient.

    Credit were credit is due, ChapoTrapHouse did say that the nomination and precedency would kill the #metoo movement and now we’re seeing the scraps of what was; now being torn up by this draconian “journalist.”

    “but in the end”

    like people just dispassionately cranked the truth lathe and the fortune cookie said “all made up” instead of a coordinated PR carpet bombing to save face for a bumbling zombie man

    “But in the end,” liberals killed me too because they too are rape-culture perpetuating scum-bags.

    No point reading any Mother Jones unless the editorial team is completely replaced. “Means Testing Really Isn’t So Bad”

      here is Matt Yglesias in a recent post at his new Substack home

      imagine being more of a degenerate reptilian that Matt

      I like this ad:

      FACT:

      Mother Jones was founded as a nonprofit in 1976 because we knew corporations and the wealthy wouldn’t fund the type of hard-hitting journalism we set out to do. please join us with a tax-deductible donation today so we can keep on doing the type of journalism 2021 demands.

        Imagine if someone had told you in 2016 that Shoe0nhead would criticise Mother Jones from the left, while Mother Jones is criticising Yglesias from the right.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
