Jesse Watters sounds like your kinda “news” reporter, eh Whell? No doubt you admire his “honesty” when he attacks “libs”.
Sure is funny when the laughing hyenas go at each other, tooth & claw.

Rep. Crenshaw is a big Trump booster who should know better.

Twenty-five percent of Americans say it is “probably” or “definitely” true that the FBI instigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, a false concept promoted by right-wing media and repeatedly denied by federal law enforcement, according to a new Washington Post-University of Maryland poll.

If this keeps up, world as we know will be devoid of facts and just opinions. Before the internet revolution, all we had was National Enquirer and now we have a multitude of virtual tabloids spreading disinformation which is doing serious damage to this country's future. Of course the ubiquitous smartphone makes it all instantaneous and seamless.

Gavin Newsom Slams Wall Street Journal Over Wealth Tax Editorial: 'I Think It's Done Very Intentionally'

Of course it’s intentional. Conservative media is pure propaganda.

Is this Republican shaming or just fat shaming?

The meme would read differently if it was some blond babe wearing Trump clothes, methinks.

I posted the meme not mindful of the image. I guess I could have just posted the quote because IMO it rings quite true.

No. I think it's harder to poke fun at attractive people.

I also think it's important to not dismiss those everybody who votes differently than us as being ugly or stupid.
