If you could choose ONE thing to right the ship, what would it be?

[Lesh]

1. ELECTIONS. Make elections honest and fair and get big money and lobby groups out of politics.
2. RUNNER UP: End the authoritative unelected deep state which has its hands into every aspect of my life now trying to control how I think.

1. Great idea. Republicans will never go for it

2.What the **** does that even mean?

 

[foggedinn]

It used to be a crime to lie to a witness. Pre-emptive undercover police operations changed all that. Witnesses are now being lied to on a regular basis. All the police have to do is call a drug abuser a suspect.
But wait, it has been so successful in ending the drug problem in this country.

That's all the news is, and evidently you watch the news and believe every word is the news, seeing as everything you wrote was a regurgitation from your favorite MSM news source.

Okay. What did I post that was untrue? Did Barr make the claim that he informed Trump that there was no widespread Fraud? Bar made the claim.

Did Georgia announce they had completed the investigation into the people the Radical Right said stole the election? I posted from the Georgia Secretary of States website. Did the SOS lie? I have no evidence that he did.

Fox News happened. They paid three quarters of a Billion dollars to Dominion. That again is factual.

Is Florida having problems finding laborers for crop production?

Republicans are telling Illegals in Florida not to leave. The law wasn’t meant for them.

Video shows Florida Republicans beg migrants not to leave state over DeSantis' anti-immigrant law

"The farmers are mad as hell. We are losing employees."

Couldn't care less what Barr thinks. You linked AP in your first post. You linked SALON in your second post. I rest my case. You want me to cherry pick articles from the Federalist, Conservative Treehouse and Fox News? The media on both right and left tells you what you want to hear and it's better not to pay attention to it at all. It creates these pointless back-and-forths online "my propaganda is more truthful than your propaganda! so-and-so link proves it!" You need to be more skeptical and stop getting your emotions inflamed by what you read on AP -- that's what they want.

Choosing one thing would be hard but it would be either strict campaign finance reform or an end to gerrymandering.

 

[Coyote]

I agree. I would install a free and non partisan press that would report ALL the news honestly and thoroughly. I believe that would help right the ship in a big fat hurry, most especially when big organizations like the NYT and WAPO would be investigating the deep state instead of protecting it.

That is impossible and incredibly dangerous because by definition, it would neither be be free nor non-partisan.

Who installs it?
Who sets the criteria for “honesty” and what would it be?
Who decides what is “thorough” and how?

Despite the problems, I would rather have the media we have now, where we make our choices from a large array of sources and decide for ourselves lives what our criteria should be

 

[Arlette]

To me, it’s censorship.

If the Democrats and their complicit media would stop silencing opposing voices and instead report on what’s going on, then voters would be fully informed and could make decisions based on knowledge of what is really happening.

Everything else would follow. The truth about the migrants would come out….the real harm of liberal policies would be shown….the truth about why blacks have a higher poverty and crime rate would be discussed….the suffering of normal Americans trying to buy groceries would be better revealed….and evidence against the Biden Crime family would lead the news.

Representative Buddy Carter

There isn't a one thing that would fix it all but since I have to pick just one I say tax the super rich. Inequality is a huge problem in America

 

[Father O'Blivion]

You're actually taking this seriously......

My mistake.

 

[airplanemechanic]

I would say Ignorance

The right embraces it as it substitutes and alternate reality to facts they don’t like.
Dont like that you lost an election?….claim it is fake
Don’t want to get a COVID shot?….claim it will kill you
Don’t want to make sacrifices for climate change?…..call it a hoax

Translation:

Don't want to accept a stolen election: Fight like all hell
Don't want to get a shot that was fast tracked to vaccine status without the regular years of testing? Show evidence that people who got it died. The left will deny it.
Don't want to change your lifestyle for the "climate change" hoax the left has been touting for decades that used to be "global cooling" and when that didn't happen, they changed it to "global warming" and when that didn't happen, changed it to "climate change" that way any change can be used to further their agenda? Call it what it, FAKE.

 

[Billiejeens]

You mean we don't? Some idiots won't even accept the recounts or results of the many court challenges?

How does simply recounting fraudulent ballots verify anything?

 

[Billiejeens]

Maybe you should, and you wouldn‘t be so uninformed. Start with the straight news programs like Brett Baier - and with the knowledge you’d gain, you’d vote Republican too.

She is too deeply into the cult.

 

[Billiejeens]

Your repubicans are all for defunding the FBI.

Your cult makes you remarkablely ignorant.

We don't have a large array of sources now. More than 90% of the media are solidly in bed with the Democrats and protect them from any negative news about them while dutifully reporting every flattering thing they say about themselves. Conversely they trash Republicans every chance they get and will report almost nothing positive that they do.

Millions of Americans therefore are woefully uneducated or undereducated re current affairs and are easy pawns for the government and their surrogate media to use.

Just one example. (Examples are hard to find quickly because Google also censors anything unflattering to Democrats.)

Collusion Between Democrats and the Media Reaches a New Low

The Democrat-media cabal is clearly starting to worry that President Trump might be re-elected.

Did Rudy say there was anything fraudulent, when standing before a judge?

The Google creates mass quantities of search results that one has to weed through to find accurate information on Democrat malfeasance.

 

[Billiejeens]

Nonresponsive.

 

[whitehall]

If the mainstream media stopped being the propaganda arm of the democrat party and became fair and balanced it could go a long way toward a fair and balanced society. Sadly if it hasn't happened in the last hundred years it ain't likely to happen in the next.

 

[White 6]

Nonresponsive.

Correctamondo! Rudy was Nonresponsive, when the judge asked the same thing, or more correct, he said he was not charging that, even though it is exactly what he had charged on TV and on courthouse steps, when not in front of a judge. It is one of the reasons, he's losing his license.
