    It's funny that even Fox realizes what it did was way past any semblance of impartial journalism. Even Fox couldn't pretend.
    Yet there are those here who would defend what it did.

    It still is amazing to me that in 2023, the FBI, perhaps the most uniformly Right Wing organization in terms of personnel in the US Government, never having a Democrat as leader in its history even when Dems controlled the WH, is viewed as some left wing cabal.

    I mean, the Modern Right has literally broken with reality, and I don’t mean Ms. Winner, although that is another example of the point, if they think the FBI is consciously trying to help Dems

    It's clear the American right is dependent on being able to label someone the enemy who is out to deprive of the natural and earned rights.

    Just looked at the Fox website. Its top stories, in order:
    1. Catholics vs. gay nuns group
    2. Biden rude awakening on border
    3. Media and trans minors
    4. Disney financial woes
    5. Schiff to face fine for 'false accusations'
    6. Former cop criticizes Newsom
    7. Bud Light

    Just all about the dividing war. Relentless

    I’m sure that’s what it looks like to you.
    That doesn’t make it true for all.
    But I like that you’re giving fox a chance. You’re really up in there. Try fox biz with Payne, Neil C or Varney.
    You might learn something about the American right for once.

    And let's not forget that the disclosure of the discovery by the FBI of Hillary Clinton's emails on a laptop shared by Huma Abedin and Anthony Weiner less than a week before the election may have very well thrown the election to Trump.

    My divisiveness is very specific.
    I think you got the point…as you should.

    And they gobble it up like Turkey on Thanksgiving. Ham on Easter. And then you can see the talking points repeated on here. I had to turn it off years ago. I bet a large amount of seniors do nothing but consume that trash all day long. At night, they add some younger viewers but Fox has really destroyed the Right's moral compass. Look at how they defend known criminals and lies. When faced with facts they fall back on whataboutisms. Biden is going to get elected again because of the extremism of the Right which is constantly fed by Fox News and other far right entertainment companies posing as news sources. Look at all the lunatics they have voted in. LUNATICS.

    "As opposed to the Trump indictment" which unlike a typical indictment in a criminal case just didn't layout the charges against the defendant, it also included a detailed description of the evidence. It just seems like certain people are completely willing to ignore the evidence.

    Fox business inappropriately uses the word business for several reasons

    1) less than 10% of the programming actual discusses business investments markets etc. the rest in devoted to politics. If you want to hear about that you have to go to Bloomberg or CNBC.

    2) No one there knows much about business outside of Gasparino and Cavuto and the latter also talk politics 50% of the time - to his credit he’s pretty straight about it. The Ewok (Bartiromo) used to know something but she’s lost her mind and doesn’t discuss it anyway.

    3) When they do bring on guests to talk about Markets Investments etc, they similarly have no knowledge. If it want to find out if I should trim my NVDA stake a 400% mover (I know I should but I’ve got a stop). Faux Business News) has no useful info.

    Why thank you for that. I'm so grateful to the DOJ for their kind treatment of Donald Trump.

    I'm also grateful to Mussolini for keeping the trains running on time.

    I’ve learned a valuable lesson in life. Don’t take seriously an old man (actually any man) who communicates with snark memes and gifs. It’s a waste of time

    I suppose that you feel that as an ex-president and current candidate for the office Trump should be treated as if the law applicable to every other American and in fact every person who sits foot on American shouldn't apply to him.
