Then it should be considered false advertising to always have chyrons saying "Fox News"

Joe is a decent guy and appears personally clean but his brother James, and Hunter, do have some serious soiled laundry, and he has been, at best, selectively blind to their shenanigans. https://www.politico.com/ma....

Yes, it can be parsed away from Trump's much more direct grift and graft, but when you are explaining about hedge funds you are losing, and this is not good for Biden or for us in the Short Attention Span Theater of American politics.

Another irrelevant Repuke who should be ignored. Monitored, but ignored with nothing printed about her or her bullshit.

Her decision, like Josh Hawley's, to throw in with the MAGAts is a signal indicator that they read the future of the party as such. They are not marginally educated goobs like Greene and Boebert and they both once played a more "reasomable" song but now, as young politicos planning a lifetime at the public trough, they foresee that this is the path to success.

They don't see the ginned-up base as a wolf they have to hold by the ears. They see it as a glide slope.

I think that they are correct.

There's no need to "Well, but..." this. The Trump Crime Family grift is orders of magnitude above anything Biden has done, with extra attempted coup sauce. Democrats need to hammer Jared's payoffs from MBS and Ivanka and her Chinese trademarks, and pretty much everything Donald has done in his entire life. Make Republicans defend the real scandals.

Most voters do not care - they assume that everyone is crooked. What we do not need, though, while trying to save democracy and make women persons again and keep the planet from burning, is a distraction about our guy.

I'm confused--so you're saying we shouldn't push back when the Republicans try to make it about Hunter Biden?

For that matter, the grift of the Trumps is orders of magnitude above anything from the Bush Crime Family, which at least had the knowledge and organization to not put actual family members on the payroll.

No, to the extent that he is defensible we should, but also with the knowledge that the things that he has done force Joe into explanations, and that is never a good position to be in.

The whole point in these lies is that there are so many people out there who are want to hear them and are willing to believe them.

That's why Elise (and others) will keep telling such lies on air. That and there's absolutely NO consequences at all whatsoever that they might incur for telling such lies, there are only benefits!

And let's not forget all those Chinese trademarks Ivanka got early on in his term, before Daddy declared trade war on China.

Just once, really—once-I’d like to see a photo of Elise Stefanik with that fat, lying, garbage-spewing mouth her hers shut. This is a person ugly inside and out, apron who has traded common sense for naked ambition.

I would say that I wonder how she sleeps at night, but Stefanik clearly is a person of no conscience or remorse.

Stefanik is just doing her job, representing her constituents. Not the people in NY's 21st district, silly, the people who pay her.
