Remember the Faux audience. Big words, explanations, background - nope. Parroting the current GQP buzzwords; Antifa, CRT, Fake News, Fraud, Woke, Libbberrrrallllls, Hunter Biden, Sleepy Joe, Hillary … all without any basis or reasoning is standard messaging. Sound bites, not nuance. More projection than a 35 screen cineplex. “We’re lying our asses off so ‘they’ must be too”. ---

First put in the Stupid Republican shitshow thread; here’s Faux News take on it. > **[Pro-Trump Man Found Guilty of Fraud for Arson Hoax and Blaming it on BLM...](https://www.theroot.com/pro-trump-man-charged-for-staging-arson-and-blaming-it-1849174547)** > > He put on quite the show for the officers who responded to his call. Fox News host Laura Ingraham and Ben Shapiro [commented](https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-fan-accused-of-faking-political-hate-crime-insurance-scam-2022-7) on the incident claiming it was “a message being sent by the far left.” “-I think people are beginning to see that arsonist behavior, looting, even murder — none of it is off the table,” Ingraham said. “We all know that if this were right-wingers performing this kind of violence, Joe Biden would be out there on the front lines proclaiming that right-wing ideology was innately linked to violence and cruelty,” said Shapiro." No word of any apologies, retractions, self-awareness, morals, ethics, brain cells. You pieces of manure [Ingraham and Shapiro]; it is Reich-wing ideology that IS linked to violence and cruelty. It’s your entire schtick. Why aren’t you out there blaming your own cesspool of viewers for these actions? ---

Oh and the top headline news of the day is that the 10 year-old Ohio girl who was raped and needed to leave the state to get an abortion was raped by an “ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT”. Which I guess means that its all Biden’s fault and if Biden would just protect the border then no 10 year old would ever get raped and abortion bans would be all good. ---

> [@enipla](#): > > I’m guessing they will say that the 10 year old consented. We have been saved from that atrocity by the fact that the perpetrator is “An Illegal” (as the right likes to say)–in other words, an undocumented immigrant. If he’d been a US citizen the right would, no doubt, have relied on some combination of “God’s will” and “she was known to be a bad girl” or something of that ilk. ---
