Oh I watched the first few minutes, and it was ridiculous. Not that anyone would need to watch to know. Your description is enough to know. You “saw” what you wanted to see. Only right wing Alex Jones type nut jobs use bogus terms like “crisis actors” and assume a Black Lives Matter protest is fake because, “oh my god! There are a lot white people there!” as if it is an issue only black people care about.


I'll bet most of those people hadn't even been shot by the police! Posers!

(Why we should be afraid of a Jim Jordan-led Judiciary subcommittee | The Mehdi Hasan Show)

Quote:
House Republicans want you to believe that a new, Jim Jordan-led Judiciary subcommittee is the second coming of the ‘Church Committee,’ the gold standard for congressional investigations led by former Sen. Frank Church. And while they’re pretending, Mehdi says, the rest of us aren’t buying it. Former Church aide Loch Johnson and MSNBC legal analyst Barb McQuade join him to discuss.

Willful abandonment of reason and reality simply to escape the pain of living in or merely thinking of living in a more just, equal, kind world is the saddest of mental illnesses.

(US forces kill Islamic State leader in Somalian cave complex, officials say – BBC News)

Quote:
US forces have killed Islamic State leader, Bilal al-Sudani, and 10 of his operatives in northern Somalia, American officials say.

A remote cave complex was raided by US special forces in a bid to capture Al-Sudani, who allegedly funded the group's activities globally.

Analysts say the fact that US troops were sent to kill or capture Sudani, rather than using a less risky drone strike, indicates his significance.

"Al-Sudani was responsible for fostering the growing presence of ISIS in Africa”, US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin said.

I just watched more of that ridiculous video, so if that is one of the "better" ones, I can only imagine how bat-s#!† crazy the others are. The part where he is pointing to random things on the road like tar marks and pieces of tread as "marks" on the road for targets for events had me in stitches it was so laughably stupid.

(Trump and Barr lose as ‘deep state’ bomb goes off: Failed DOJ plot revealed in exposé)

Quote:
A New York Times bombshell investigation exposes new details and "ethical" breaches in the failed effort by Trump Attorney General Bill Barr to tarr the DOJ, and find a "deep state" bias against Donald Trump. Barr's handpicked prosecutor failed to find supporting evidence or win the few cases he filed, and the Times reports intelligence agencies contradicted Barr's theories -- and ultimately his “strained justification” for the probe fell apart. MSNBC Chief Legal Correspondent Ari Melber analyzes the story on the day it broke, and, while carefully noting there were no alleged crimes, the account raises other questions of ethics and abuse of power by Barr.

The Young Turks

(SCATHING Must-See Ad Nails "Maserati" Manchin)

Quote:
Republicans released a scathing, but true, ad against Joe Manchin. John Iadarola and Cenk Uygur discuss on The Young Turks.

"The National Republican Senatorial Committee is portraying Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.V.) as a Davos-trekking elitist in a direct mail and digital ad campaign directed at West Virginia voters.

Why it matters: The NRSC's early anti-Manchin messaging is part of a pressure campaign designed to dissuade him from seeking a third term. Manchin is the only Democrat who can realistically hold a Senate seat in one of the most conservative states in the country.

"I haven't made a decision what I'm going to do in 2024. I've got two years ahead of me now to do the best I can for the state and for my country," Manchin said on NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday."

White Crisis actors Lives Matter

LINK REMOVED. THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO BE PROMOTING YOUR CRANK THEORIES.


Motivated reasoning plus confirmation bias plus anomaly hunting plus post-hoc rationalization does not equal a persuasive "breakdown." It equals more crankism.

In any event, this is not the platform for you to post that. I redacted your links. Don't like it? Then when you're in your next echo chamber you can complain about how you were kicked off this platform for speaking the truth.

('Atrocity, worse than Trump’: George Santos hammered for mounting lies by Stephen A. Smith)

Quote:
GOP lawmaker George Santos faces growing pressure to resign over the growing number of falsehoods and lies unearthed after his election. "We need to fall back on anyone in the Republican party who is supporting him staying on board," says ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith, calling the entire episode "a disgrace” in an MSNBC interview. “This man did something Donald Trump hasn’t even done,” Smith added. He joined MSNBC Contributor Mike Barnicle and MSNBC host Ari Melber for Fallback Friday, discussing the Santos story, Gov Ron DeSantis, and other topics in The Beat's "Fallback" segment. (An excerpt of this extended discussion aired on MSNBC.)
