    You guys don't have to watch football head or anyone else on 🦊

    He doesn't want to go into obscurity with the BLAZZzE or OAN and doesn't want to go independent on some shitty podcast or youtube stream.

    Seems like he made the right move imo.

    Powell and Rudy are well past the point of put up or shut up. And I say that as someone who admires the work she did on the Flynn case.

    I’m betting Tucker leveraged his Contract negotiations at precisely the right moment and staked out some expanded airtime and editorial control in the process. Good for Tucker.

    I’m just enjoying the heavyweights throw their weight around. at SOME point, somebody is going to have to throw down hard evidence in Court or GTFO. Now that TeamTrump has built a glorious bonfire 🔥 he had better be right or the Tug is gonna have its biggest BBQ thread of all time.

    No matter which team you? pull for, there is always an out ... an explanation for why something did or didn't happen as you said it would.

    As for Trump, there's nothing to lose here. For all his positives, he's not the guy who's going to worry about what he leaves behind. He's definitely a character who, when backed into a corner, comes out swinging and screaming.

    If it were me, I'd be glad to get back to my old life before stepping into all this.

    Carlson has always been rude, insulting and demanding. Is this new?

    It's what I've always liked about him. Come on guysm. There's a lot of bitching in the Tug about cutting through the bullshit and getting the straight straight.

    If someone reporting the news is being honest and truthful, it stands to reason at some point they're going to tell you what you don't want to hear.

    I have no idea of the validity of any of Trump's suits. I would expect they are taking a guerilla warfare, scorched earth, "sue everybody and every thing" approach. But I wouldn't begin to doubt or believe the merits.

    I doubt Tucker sold out. Besides, he's WAY past the point of no return and will never be embraced by the left. He's a smart dude. He knows there's no place for him at MSN.

    This is a problem. If it’s not what someone wants to hear, they dismiss it and/or make it out to be something different. They frame it the way they want it to be or when they can’t escape the truth, they point the finger at the other side for doing something worse. It seems very few want the truth unless the truth is what they want to hear. It’s not a left or right thing because both do it.
    Then they blame the media for it.

    Rude, who knows. Demanding, however, is how The Fifth Estate should be postured when questioning those in power.

    You mean like they did to Biden/Harris during the campaign?


    Hard hitting that shit.

    Never said that was anything but a fail. They dug in on Biden some during primaries. After he was the nominee and with the crud providing cover, I can't think of a major candidate covered less than Biden. Even worse than the pass Obama was given, and that's really something.

    Tucker has always been hard on the "donor class" GOP and what we now commonly call the deep state. He's right about the two parties being one in the DC power center. He has DNC guests on and some interesting debate. That's why I watched.

    ATBS

    He's not going to stake his reputation on the word of the Kraken or Lin Wood. I wouldn't either. I'd love it if it was all true but it has to be something 81% o the people can sink their teeth into. Time is running out

    And FOX signed up Tucker to try to keep some of the massive audience bleed they are going through. We'll see

    This whole voting affair should be treated with the utmost critical thought by journalists. The stakes are too high to take Trump at his word, or to dismiss it completely. After watching that Tucker bit last night, I think that's where he's at.

    I give zero fucks whether Ms. Powell's feelings were hurt.

    I do love her voice though.

    It's been 2.5 weeks and they have not shared any substantial that would overturn the election. If it's not time to dismiss it, when will it?

    Substantial to whom?

    What has been shared?

    What hasn’t?

    Why are you in such a hurry?

    What are you afraid of?

    My mind is made up, but that's complete inconsequential. When's the electoral college? Dec. 12-ish? Then.

    Trump has the right to play it out in court. Anything you might want to do to stop that would be worse than the problem.

    The burden of @proof is on Team Trump. The election is valid until shown otherwise.

    This sums up my feelings on the matter precisely. If it it's there, I want to see it and have it see the light of day. If it's not there, then STFU until you have something.

    I agree. He's not obliged to acknowledge Biden's win until the states certify their elections, and he goes through all the legal challenges at his disposal.

    It makes him a cunty sore loser, IMO, but that's his right.

    Plus, it keeps the losing going on for weeks - which I find delightful. Because of the TDS.

    That, and somehow denying due process under law to an alleged aggrieved party is as much an attack on the republic as voting issues.

    2 weeks to flatten er prove the case

    https://newsmax.com/politics/sidney-powell-maria-bartiromo-election-trump/2020/11/20/id/998020/

    "We have more evidence now than the present population is imprisoned on," Powell told Fox Business' Maria Bartiromo, while laughing off a statement from Dominion Voting Systems denying the attorneys' claim that the company's software was used to pull votes away from President Donald Trump and give them to Democrat challenger Joe Biden, and that the company had ties to Venezuela.

    "All I can tell you is that well, the company might have somehow severed or tried to sever the relationships recently, I don’t know how they are parsing their words, but I can tell you that the company was started with Venezuelan money in Venezuela for the express purpose of rigging elections for Hugo Chavez," Powell said.

    She also claimed that there were people who were "in the control room" and how they "watched how the votes" were flipped in real time.
