Fox News Deposition Statements On the Big Lie

  There is a good amount of evidence that ballots were dropped off in ballot collection boxes by the hundreds in many areas, as those occurrences are on video of single people doing that very thing.

  I know that nobody here on the right claimed that it was enough to overcome the amount that Donald Trump lost by, yet I do recall that You personally, our resident communist and dossier conspiracy peddler did come on and say that the Dossier was real and not made up by the Russian operative hired by Christopher Steele who was paid by Hillary Clinton to develop it and the lies that were in it.

  I do remember you doing that.  Tell me, do you still buy the BS Steele Dossier as being factual as you've put forth all along since day 1?  I mean if that isn't at this point peddling a conspiracy theory I don't know what is.  

  Now then do you accept Robert Mueller's assertion that there was/is no evidence to support the conspiracy theory that was peddled by You for over 3 years that Donald Trump colluded with Vladimir Putin, to win the general election for President in 2016?  Are you still supporting that conspiracy theory that You peddled here for all that time or do you accept Robert Mueller's investigation findings?  smile
Here you go again with a array of diversions to the Mueller probe and the Steele dossier of which I've stated, that as per the fact-checking, portions of the dossier are accurate. That said, back to the topic on hand:
"There is a good amount of evidence that ballots were dropped off in ballot collection boxes by the hundreds in many areas, as those occurrences are on video of single people doing that very thing."
Lol! That's bogus and has been repeatedly debunked over and over again:

Because your leftist news outlets make that assertion, it means nothing. 

There are videos out there that show people in the middle of the night, 2am, 3am, etc... dropping off garbage bags fuil of votes into drop boxes in various areas of the nation.  

  This is what your links say about that fact:   "But that’s based on faulty assumptions, anonymous accounts and improper analysis of cellphone location data, which is not precise enough to confirm that somebody deposited a ballot into a drop box, according to experts".

Let me just address some of the accusations above that your links assert:  

First, let's talk about the claim above that "anonymous accounts" can't be trusted, as if that is some sort of evidence of "debunking".  

Virtually every person in articles that the Washington Post, NY Times, LA Times, Boston Globe, USA Today, uses and cites as EVIDENCE is referred to in their articles of "Fact" as "anonymous sources".   

That is how all of the above "News Outlets" report on stories, using anonymous sources.  

But now YOU are going to say that citing anonymous sources are not credible?   LOL!  

No, if your newspapers above are going to cry foul because the sources that show ballot box stuffing are "
anonymous" and can't be trusted, then every single article that these newspapers print are lies and not credible.  IF they are going to cite anonymous sources in every article they pen, then they don't get the luxury of calling out others for their 'anonymous' sources.  

Next, their claim is that the people in the videos shown dropping off garbage bags full of ballots to drop boxes in the middle of the night, and using cellphone GPS as the indicator of their location, is faulty.

Really?  GPS from cellphones is "faulty" and can't be trusted?

Well you might want to inform the FBI itself of that statement, because the FBI Itself USES GPS Cellphone data in their investigations and Has used that same cellphone GPS data in trials of criminals to prove their locations when committing crimes.

Well then, if it good enough evidence for the FBI to take and use in court then I think that is good enough evidence to show that these people were at these locations in the middle of the night, regardless of what your leftist news outlets and fact checkers say.

Do you have anything else that I can destroy with facts and contrary evidence or is that enough of a beatdown for one afternoon?   smile
Resident Dick:
So the Denver Post and AP news are liberal sources and therefore are incapable of providing a fact check?
Lol!, and you, on the other hand, are some sort of credible source in judging what the FBI says and does in their investigations and comparing it and judging it to be the same thing that's being discussed in the facts checks?! Lol times infinity -squared! And that's not even mentioning the fact that you've panned the FBI as some sort of biased and diabolical organization that goes after Trump and conservatives if their findings don't meet their and your narratives which are one in the same.
Coming back on topic:
That said, care to comment about the lies by Fox news and their primary propagandists on air while acknowledging in private communications that Trump's election lies are just that???

Fox News Deposition Statements On the Big Lie

Posted By Rod Kaufman

With the Dominion lawsuit defamation trial against Fox news set for the end of April, excerpts of the depo have surfaced:

"The most prominent stars and highest-ranking executives at Fox News privately ridiculed claims of election fraud in the 2020 election, despite the right-wing channel allowing lies about the presidential contest to be promoted on its air, damning messages contained in a Thursday court filing revealed."
"The messages, included in a legal filing as part of Dominion Voting System’s $1.6 billion lawsuit against Fox News, showed that Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and Laura Ingraham brutally mocked lies being pushed by former President Donald Trump’s camp asserting that the election was rigged."
"The messages also revealed that Rupert Murdoch, the chairman of Fox Corporation, did not believe Trump’s election lies and even floated the idea of having Carlson, Hannity, and Ingraham appear together in prime time to declare Joe Biden as the rightful winner of the election."
"Such an act, Murdoch said, “Would go a long way to stop the Trump myth that the election stolen.”

Hunter's laptop? Let's talk about the other laptop.

https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-aide-laptop-copies-of-classified-docs-report-says-2023-2

"Lawyers for former President Donald Trump discovered more classified materials in January and gave them to federal investigators, multiple reports say.

Among the materials turned in were papers with classified markings, an empty folder with classified markings, and the laptop of one of Trump's aides, multiple news outlets reported.

The classified documents were discovered at Mar-a-Lago, but not in the area where Trump stored the batch of materials seized during the August search of his home by FBI agents, ABC News reported.

Sources told ABC News that James Trusty, Trump's attorney, told federal investigators that classified materials had been electronically copied onto the laptop of the aide. The aide apparently did not know that they had scanned classified materials onto their laptop, sources told CNN."
"...they are all hypocrites and partisan hacks."
Just like the cons on this forum...

Well, the point is, Dave, it's only being viewed as a unilateral partisan "investigation" into Hunter Biden's laptop by right wingers who presently control the house of representatives. And, of course, neither Hunter or Hillary were ever the president at any time so the apples and oranges deflections by the likes of Davis or the non-response from Greg to Jim M's post are a mirror of the GOP attitude in congress as well as their right wing media propagandists...

Which of course makes what either of them did so far worse that it is incalculable

They didn't have the Constitution behind them and they had NO business removing classified docs for any reason while Trump as the Pres, possessed the Consitutional power to declassify any documents he wanted to at any time.

I can just imagine how utterly irate the left would have been, to the point of apoplectic had Don Jr. or any other Trump been caught red handed with Classified docs in their possession, yet you are just that stupid that you will defend Hunter, a drug addled loser of all time having classified docs in his possession.

I can't make up this story and just how damned stupid you are for trying to defend it.  LOL!  

Thanks for making my job easy here.  smile
Really? The GOP investigations of Hunter Biden's laptop have concluded and you've got the early scoop on their findings? My gosh, we've got breaking news on the astromart!  Other other hand, Hillary's emails and the like have been investigated to the hilt and we're still waiting for her to be "locked-up", right?
That said, and Rich's moronic commentary notwithstanding, we're still waiting on his and Greg's response to Trump's laptop of classified information that HAS been documented...

So Greg is deflecting to Hillary's emails, too. OK, the FBI reviewed the 5 "classified emails" on the computer in question. The outcome of the latter:
"Then-FBI Director James Comey wrote top congressional leaders that discovery of the messages meant that the bureau would review them in considering its conclusion about Clinton’s use of a private email server. Comey subsequently announced that the messages had not changed the FBI’s decision to not charge Clinton..."
So, Greg, are you now going to give your response on whether or not Trump's laptop containing classified documents bothers you? Or, is this going to be another case wherein you STILL don't know enough about it just like in the case where Trump stated the biggest mistake in the world was Dubya's decision to invade Iraq over imaginary WMDs?

Another thing that should be painfully clear is that no high-level current or former government executive will be charged for the simple mishandling of classified documents. I mean, if Trump is not going to be charged, no one will ever be charged. His abuse is egregiously wrong compared to the other cases we know about, including Hillary's. I remember the popular refrain against Hillary: "If it were anyone else, they would be in jail already!" Well, that sentiment applies to Trump to a very high degree. We are far from the ideal that "no one is above the law."
"Yeah but" it was Trump's aide's laptop so Trump is (somehow) absolved of wrongdoing in this thread...

Except that: 1. Hillary was not the president and 2. Her emails and documents were investigated to the hilt by the FBI. 
Now about the classified documents on Trump's aide's laptop, what say ye?...
