    Funny how Trumpists say libruhls hate Amurrica, yet Trumpists are falling all over themselves trying to be among the first to praise a traitor in uniform. Ya see, it's OK if one of our brave troops leaks info while a libruhl is president because that leakage harms the libruhl president an therefore exalts Amurrica.

    LOL. I wondered when you'd gone off the rails and if I simply hadn't noticed.

    Of course, but that's a feature, not a bug.

    They tried it in Virginia, and the hotline failed miserably from spoofers and spammers.

    Your Honor, we’re totally sorry and this time we really mean it!

    Washington (CNN) — Fox News formally apologized to the judge in the Dominion defamation case, taking responsibility for the “misunderstanding” regarding Rupert Murdoch’s role at the network that led the judge to launch an investigation into potential legal misconduct by Fox, according to a letter obtained by CNN.

    In the letter, which was dated Friday and filed with the court, Fox attorney Blake Rohrbacher said the right-wing network “never intended to omit information” and that its inaccurate representations about Murdoch’s formal role at Fox News were “not meant to mislead the Court or evade the question.”

    “We understand the Court’s concerns, apologize, and are committed to clear and full communication with the Court moving forward,” Rohrbacher wrote, later adding that, “we should have provided to the Court a complete and prompt response to the Court’s questions concerning the identities of all of Fox News’ officers. We apologize and never intended to avoid responding to a question from the Court.”

    The legal spat revolves around Murdoch’s roles at Fox News and its parent company, Fox Corporation. In past court filings, and when asked directly by the judge, Fox lawyers have repeatedly said he didn’t have an official title at Fox News. But last week, Fox disclosed that he is also an executive officer at Fox News.

    Dominion says this distinction may have narrowed what Fox turned over as part of the discovery process in the case – potentially blocking the voting technology company from obtaining more Murdoch-related emails and text messages. The judge was livid over Fox’s misrepresentations and said he would bring in a third-party lawyer to investigate whether Fox lied to the court and withheld evidence from Dominion.​

    Which Democrat is going to win national office - or think they can - on an abortion restriction platform?

    When people mention the Democratic Senators from the Midwest they’re talking about politicians who largely supported anti-abortion positions.

    When you write "if anything we need more conservative Democrats" ...we had those for a long time. Biden was actually one of them. 30 years later, we don't.

    Why do you think that is?

    I argue that the Democratic Party has changed from a big tent to a long list. But, hey, it's winning elections in a lot of places. So I don't think Democrats see a need to change. And maybe they don't have to change.

    You went from “a Democrat” to “one running for national office.” You moved the goalpost.

    Now do the GOP’s ever shrinking tent.
