Lol! Two out of four of the actions were unintentionally misrepresented and for whom? Not the Trump campaign but Carter Paige who the Russian spy network reportedly concluded  wasn't even worth the effort to talk to in the first place...

The FBI just dumped all over Comer and his clown show today:
"The FBI declined Wednesday to provide House Oversight Chairman James Comer with an internal law enforcement document that some Republicans claim will show Joe Biden was involved in an illegal scheme involving a foreign national."
“It is critical to the integrity of the entire criminal justice process and to the fulfillment of our law enforcement duties that FBI avoid revealing information — including unverified or incomplete information — that could harm investigations, prejudice prosecutions or judicial proceedings, unfairly violate privacy or reputational interests, or create misimpressions in the public,”
"In a six-page response to Comer, Dunham said that FD-1023 form is “used by FBI agents to record unverified reporting from a confidential human source,” and noted that there are strict Justice Department guidelines about when that information can be provided outside of the FBI."
"Dunham also outlined the shortcomings of relying solely on this law enforcement document – which includes unverified allegations – to draw conclusions."
“An FD-1023 form documents information as told to a line FBI agent. Recording the information does not validate the information, establish its credibility, or weigh it against other information known or developed by the FBI,” Dunham wrote. “The mere existence of such a document would establish little beyond the fact that a confidential human source provided information and the FBI recorded it"
"Dunham added that such documents include “leads and suspicions” and “later and more complete reports might exonerate individuals cast in a negative light by reports from earlier in an investigation.”
"Pressed in media interviews for more details about the whistleblower’s claims, Grassley has admitted he does not know whether they are true or false."

Well, at least ONE GOP senator has the balls to break with Trump:
"When asked what his reason was for refusing to endorse Trump, who has a commanding lead in GOP primary polls, Young replied, “Where do I begin?”

PS:  Anybody catch Trump's take on the debt ceiling? Short answer: Default! Another prime example that Trump and his MAGA extremists want the government to fail...

Oh, and just a quick question for Ron:
"Bob Iger to Ron DeSantis: Does Florida want our jobs and taxes or not?"
"Disney CEO Bob Iger said Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ attacks on the company threaten its plans for $17 billion of investment and 13,000 new jobs at Disney World over the next 10 years."

Its funny how you don't know who the host is, and you don't know what the demographics of the listeners is, how they lean politically, but it is a bad sample.  

And here's a clue for you.  I stated that it was purely anecdotal.  

The polls that you post are accurate and the rest are bad samples.  

Got it.  

So the radio host you listen to is a lib? A moderate? Or a conservative? I think it's safe to assume it's likely the latter if you are listening to it. Does the radio host even have a name? Or is it just radio host?  And if it's purely anecdotal, as you say, then it's not a particularly accurate representation of much of anything, other than a sample of the dedicated audience of it,  now is it?...

There is certainly tons of left wing content.  Look at the pod casts Rod posts all the time.  I imagine that the lefty demographics get their echo chamber fix on line, or maybe from MSNBC etc. not the radio.   It takes a genuine old-timer to listen to talk radio.   I'm not nearly old enough to be a talk radio regular.   (Although I loved Mike Rosen when he was on the air.)

I think you knew all this of course and are just baiting Richard, but what the hell....

Do you remember extreme lefty Randi Rhodes on Air America?   I used to hate her!   When I was younger and more easily fired up.  She is still out there:   Streaming her content to adoring lefties.   https://randirhodes.com/   Lots more like her.   No doubt you've heard of Keith Olbermann!

Maybe it's just my take on it but I don't consider a youtube presentation that I link to from time to time to be the same thing as a talk radio show. I consider the latter to be along the lines of an AM radio station broadcast like that of the Rush Limbaugh genre. Basically, it's a loud and obnoxious right wing echo chamber that's fact-challenged, to put it mildly. It's where these guys get their "news"...

And it takes more than what you tried to give to work me up.

Where did I look agitated?  

Well now, I wasn't but your hypocritical screed there needed to be addressed, and since all you've got at this point is a cat with your tongue in its mouth, that's a pretty good indication that you haven't a scintilla of a comeback to try and wipe away the facts that I wrote about you and your hypocritical nature.  

Anything you'd like to refute in regard to the facts that I stated about you previously?  

"Where did I look agitated?"
Lol! Lol! Lol!
What, me worry?...

I mean to say, with these kinds of responses you're giving, wouldn't it just be easier to just open up your mouth and say "I'm a Raging hypocrite"?

It would be much faster than you desperately trying to cover for the corrupt guy you voted for?

And then you say this:  I believe Carroll in large part because a jury believed her. 

Well, no the jury did not believe her.  They said they did not believe that she was raped by Trump so they called her a liar plain and simple since she was suing him for rape and defamation.  

Tara Reide, at the time told friends and she told her mother.  Her mother called the Larry King show shortly after it happened, and told him that her daughter was raped by someone who was high in the gov't.

It turned out to be Joe Biden.  

But of course since she's accusing your guy, then she's not credible.  

Got it.  

 

Here's who Rich believes:
"Reade has misrepresented herself and her life experiences on numerous occasions, including lying under oath and in court proceedings. For example, she falsely claimed to hold a bachelor's degree from Antioch University.[2]"
"Before accusing Biden of sexual assault in 2020, Reade made various other comments that cast her encounters with Biden differently. In April 2019, Reade said that she filed a complaint in 1993 against Biden with a Senate human resources office in which she alleged that Biden had made her feel uncomfortable through comments she deemed demeaning, allegedly including a compliment about her looks and a request for Reade to serve drinks at a Senate event. However, in her complaint, Reade did not accuse Biden of any kind of sexual misconduct and made no mention of the alleged assault.[3] A few years before she accused Biden of sexual assault, Reade repeatedly praised Biden on her personal Twitter account, retweeting or otherwise endorsing comments which characterized Biden as a leader in combating sexual violence.[4]"

Is this to make some sort of statement?
https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/12/middleeast/massive-us-embassy-middle-east-mime-intl/index.html

"The Georgia base, which was named for Confederate Gen. Henry L. Benning, was redesignated in honor of Lt. Gen. Harold “Hal” Moore and his wife, Julia “Julie” Moore."
"Harold Moore commanded the 7th Cavalry Regiment stationed at the base during the Vietnam War, while his wife served as an advocate for military families."
