The biggest lie is to suggest that Republicans are spreading lies and misinformation, and the Democrats are not
The following was posted on social media recently by a widely respected California-based journalist:
I don’t like being an alarmist but the epidemic of misinformation is becoming critical and increasingly dangerous. It was bad enough when we had a lying POTUS but it is now clear that it’s become a political tactic of a large part of one of our main political parties. And, if one major party can get away with mass lying, so can the other one, so I fear this will spread across ideological boundaries.
It’s fair to say this reflects a majority opinion among journalists throughout the American media, and it invites a response. This journalist accuses “one of our main political parties” of engaging in “mass lying,” obviously referring to the Republicans and obviously blind to the lies promulgated by the Democrats.
The biggest lie allegedly spread by Republicans, now called “The Big Lie,” is to claim the 2020 election was illegitimate. But even if the 2020 election was not compromised due to a relentlessly hostile and partisan media, endless political persecution designed to damage Donald Trump’s reelection campaign, voting rules that were violated and manipulated in swing states, Zuckerbucks, and possibly much more, this assertion still isn’t a Republican “lie.” For better or for worse, there are diverse opinions within the ranks of Republicans. Some think it was a stolen election; others don’t.

Funny I can’t find this alleged “widely respected California-based journalist”.
He is accusing the Republicans of doing what the Democrats do, and claims to be worried that democrats could do it too.
Up is down...
98-1-1 for nuclear confrontation, arming, supplying and manning 800 more miles of new deadbeat NATO border. This is in our best interest? Looks like 99-1 liars perpetrating another big lie in the Senate.
Funny no one accuses Stacy Abrams of a “big lie”
Wee morning hours of November 4, 2020....
The Big Steal.
I’d like to ask him to name the big lies of the past 5 years and their outcomes, so who’s spreading misinformation?
Russia collusion/Mueller investigation
Hunter Biden laptop
Covington kids vs native american
Charlottesville fine people
and on and on...
The other side has the same problem. They cannot prove it was an honest election.
Trump lost by just 43,000 votes spread across Georgia, Arizona, and Wisconsin.
Three Questions...
(1) How many votes were cast by ineligible voters?
(2) How many ballots did not have a verifiable chain of custody?
(3) How many ballot signatures were not checked by a Republican poll watcher?
Once a mail-in or drop box ballot leaves the security envelope, there is no way to prove anything!
Good questions - heck, just eliminate mail-in lots alone, which were illegal per state voting laws, and Trump wins.
“The other side has the same problem. They cannot prove it was an honest election.”
It’s not quite the same problem though. If the government can’t demonstrate to the people that elections are fair and honest, then government has a rather large problem on its hands. If I as an individual can’t prove the election is crooked, then the problem is just mine.
“The other side has the same problem. They cannot prove it was an honest election.”
I think that can be proved, one way or the other, but they WILL NOT, because they know/suspect that will proved to be a steal. They can only scream “NO!!”
The guilty flee where no one purses them.
The interesting question to me is whether is knows he is full of bs or if he really believes his own lies.
My bet is that he knows the truth and is deliberately lying.
I.e. He is a paid propagandist and is frustrated that his propaganda no longer works on 1/2 or more of the population.
I stopped reading when I got here: *** The reality of climate change is not in dispute.***
Sorry, I dispute that, too.
When I was a teenager, the talking heads warned us of a soon coming ice age. When my kids were little, they starting with global warming. Now they call it climate change. Well, change is the only constant. They have gone back to the old record books and changed the numbers to what they think things should have been recorded as. So now all of the previous stuff should really have asterisks by that data.
I refuse to go along with this BS. When we can control the sun and its activity, when we can control volcanoes, and tectonic plates shifting, well, maybe that’s when I’ll start going along with any of their nonsense. These people are full of it. JMHO.
Yes it can be proved.
Watch 2000 mules
It contains actual evidence. Enough to overcome the criminal fraud.
And that’s even with their very conservative and strict rules. For example mules that went to a drop box more than 35 times. Mules where there was corresponding video and cell phone data
