Misleading GOP videos of Biden are going viral. The fact-checks have trouble keeping up. It’s no secret that in today’s age of social media and a 24-hour news cycle, disinformation and lies can spread like wildfire. The GOP seems to have mastered the art of the “firehose of falsehood,” bombarding the public with misleading videos and fake news about Joe Biden. These videos, often taken out of context or doctored to fit a specific narrative, are meant to deceive and manipulate viewers into believing lies about the Democratic candidate.
It’s both frustrating and disheartening to see the lengths to which the Republican National Committee, major conservative media outlets, and right-wing influencers will go to spread misinformation.… Continue reading
As I sit back and reflect on the current state of affairs in the United States, one thing that continues to weigh heavily on my mind is the composition of the Supreme Court. The recent comments made by President Joe Biden about the potential for additional Supreme Court appointments in a second Trump term struck a chord with me. And I couldn’t agree more with the sentiment that this is indeed one of the scariest aspects to consider.
The idea of a Supreme Court packed with judges who are more concerned with pushing a political agenda rather than upholding the principles of justice and equality is deeply troubling.… Continue reading
It’s no secret that the upcoming debate between Trump and Biden, hosted by CNN, is going to be a heated one. The fact that Trump’s microphone will be muted when his time is up is sure to throw a wrench in his plans. Trump thrives on being in control, and being muted will undoubtedly enrage him. But for those of us who are tired of his chaotic and disrespectful behavior, it will be a small victory to see him struggle when he isn’t able to dominate the conversation.
There are already speculations that Trump may try to find a way to back out of the debate, citing unfair rules or some other excuse.… Continue reading
As I watch the video of Trump struggling to remember the name of the doctor who tested him, I can’t help but shake my head in disbelief. Here is a man who is so fixated on cognitive tests and challenging Biden to take one, yet he can’t even recall the basic details of his own examination. It’s both ironic and concerning to witness this display of forgetfulness from someone who claims to be mentally sharp and fit to lead.
The idea that Trump believes cognitive tests involve merely identifying colors or pictures of elephants is laughable. These tests are designed to assess a person’s cognitive abilities, memory, attention, and problem-solving skills.… Continue reading
Judge says Biden’s ban of ‘gun show loophole’ invalid in 4 states
The recent ruling by Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk that deemed Biden’s ban of the so-called ‘gun show loophole’ invalid in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Utah has sparked controversy and debate among firearms advocates and opponents alike. The White House’s attempt to regulate repeated sales of guns of the same make and model within a year, requiring individuals to become licensed dealers under the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, has been challenged and overturned in these four states.
The argument put forth by the attorneys general in these states, claiming that the rules infringe upon Americans’ constitutional right to privately buy and sell firearms, raises an important question about the balance between gun control measures and individual rights.… Continue reading
Older voters are abandoning Donald Trump, and it’s about time. As someone who has witnessed the detrimental impact of Trump’s policies and divisive rhetoric firsthand, I can understand why the tide is turning against him. The recent Marist poll in Pennsylvania, showing a decline in support among voters over the age of 45, is a clear indication that older Americans are waking up to the reality of Trump’s failed leadership.
The fact that Trump is losing ground among older voters, a demographic that has traditionally been more conservative, speaks volumes about the disillusionment and frustration that many Americans are feeling. The mishandling of the Covid-19 pandemic, which led to countless unnecessary deaths among the elderly, must have been a wake-up call for many older voters.… Continue reading
As a veteran who supports Trump, I was initially proud to have a president who I believed respected our veterans. However, the incident where Trump refused to honor the servicemen buried at the WWI cemetery due to rain while making time to meet with Vladimir Putin alone was truly disheartening. It made me question how someone who avoided serving his country due to alleged bone spurs could disrespect those who made the ultimate sacrifice. It’s a shame that someone who claims to support the military could hold such contempt for our fallen heroes.
The comments made by Trump, labeling these brave individuals as “suckers” and “losers,” not only showcase a lack of respect but also a complete disregard for the sacrifices made by these servicemen.… Continue reading
More than half of Biden supporters say the main reason for backing him is to oppose Trump, according to a CBS poll. And you know what? I’m one of them. The idea of stopping Trump from dismantling the Constitution and pushing his fascist agenda is enough to make me support Biden without a second thought. The thought of facing another term with a man who has no redeeming qualities, who is a convicted felon and a rapist, is enough to drive me to vote for anyone but him.
Biden may not be the perfect candidate, but between him and a man who actively tried to overthrow a democratic election, the choice is clear.… Continue reading
Conservatives seem to be up in arms about President Biden’s anti-Nazi D-Day speech defending democracy, calling it an attack on Trump. But let’s take a step back and really look at the situation here. If defending democracy and denouncing hateful ideologies is seen as an attack on Trump, what does that say about his supporters?
It’s no secret that Trump has made derogatory comments about soldiers who sacrificed their lives, showing a lack of character and respect for those who fought against the very ideology he seems to be cozying up to. So, when Biden speaks out against Nazis and in defense of democracy, it’s not just about history – it’s very relevant to the present moment.… Continue reading
When I think about the outrageous lie that convicted felon Trump recently escalated about President Biden authorizing the FBI to shoot and kill him during a raid, it is truly mind-boggling. The fact that he can spew such blatant falsehoods without any repercussions is alarming. It is very telling about the state of our political landscape when a former president can openly make such dangerous and baseless claims without consequence.
Trump’s assertion that President Biden ordered his assassination is not only absurd but also incredibly dangerous. By perpetuating such outrageous lies, he is fueling the fire of division and hatred among his followers.… Continue reading
