Pitting Honeybadger

[Dissonance]

@Atamasama

This morning as I was flipping through stations, I got to one of those stations and one guy (didn’t catch his name, I didn’t pay attention or care) was talking about how Joe Biden was cooked because there was evidence of his criminal activity. And he was crowing about how he was right all along, and he predicted it back in February. He then played a clip of himself back then.

At no point did he ever give a shred of evidence. He was just repeating today the same vague allegations he had said months ago. Somehow, in his world, you can use your own baseless claims from months ago as proof of something. Like, if I said this a long time ago, there you go, that’s my evidence.

So his post was his cite?

@Atamasama

It was insane. The general premise was that Joe Biden was trying to keep his son from being investigated for tax crimes because if they did, they’d find evidence that Joe was getting bribes from Ukraine, and that’s the only reason Joe supports Ukraine. Yes, in the right wing world, people need to have dirt on you before you care whether a ruthless neighbor invades a country without provocation.

It was insane. How can anyone fall for this tripe?!

Somehow Seymour Hersh of all people has been buying into this tripe.

In defence of Russia

This gotcha of another Russian apologist, veteran investigative journalist Seymour Hersh, is wild! Here’s what Seymour Hersh wrote in an article, published on the Substack platform and repeated on Russian state media: Bellingcat guy looks into the phrase “waif in his underwear”. Compare the number of google hits for the phrase in English and Russian:
