@TomiLahren Was encouraged this morning at my polling location because it was packed much more than the past, even in the rain. I’m in Alabama so I know it’s not as important but still encouraging!
@DianeCarolRoy1@stitcher25@JessicaTarlov It’s clear you think you’re better than everyone else so won’t matter what anyone says to you, but I know a LOT of rational people that think that exact thing.
@JessicaTarlov He’s honestly thinking what a LOT of Americans think too. It’s really not that crazy to think to be possible considering how unhonest and crooked they have been. Clinton’s, Biden’s, Obama’s… 🤔 saying it’s “sooo crazy” over and over doesn’t make it less possible.
This clip may be the most egregious example of ABC debate moderators' direct actions/inactions to affect viewers’ perceptions of the information presented at the debate.
There are at least seven instances of this within a two-minute span.
This is not “bias."
It’s much worse.
This is direct, planned interference in the debate outcome. When moderators take on the role of “fact checkers" the inference is that the absence of a “fact check” confers validity to the non-fact-checked information.
When one side is repeatedly “fact checked,” while the other is not, that is a signal to the viewer that one side is not reliable and truthful, while the other side is.
The ABC moderators had their orders, and here you see those orders executed.
In this clip:
1) Trump says Pelosi is responsible for security at the Capitol. True. Muir intervenes on Kamala’s behalf by cutting him off with snarky retort, doesn’t acknowledging the validity of Trump’s statement, and immediately redirects to Kamala to set up her “answer" he knows is coming. This is direct action by Muir to affect the outcome of this exchange.
2) Kamala says she was at the Capitol on J6. She was there in the morning, but left to go to DNC HQ prior to the riot. Critical information is omitted. No fact-check.
3) Kamala says Trump incited a mob to attack the Capitol. False. Trump’s “peacefully and patriotically” comments are ignored. Trump is not charged with inciting violence. No fact check.
4) Kamala says that “some" police officers died on January 6. False. No fact check.
5) Kamala recites the Charlottesville “Fine People” hoax. This has been thoroughly and repeatedly debunked. No fact check.
6) Kamala recites the “stand back and stand by” hoax. This is designed to infer that Trump was ordering a “militia” to act on later orders, when he was clearly asking for a cooling of tensions. No fact check.
7) Kamala recites the “bloodbath" hoax. Trump was talking about the automobile industry, not violence. No fact check.
To quote Megyn Kelly on the ABC moderators:
"They did exactly what their bosses wanted."
@ABC ABC is so bias it’s sickening. They are bought just like so many others now. They don’t care about America or Americans. It’s sad. I still have hope for a United America that sees through all this corruption.
@FirstTake@stephenasmith Stephen A on Tuesday morning: “Dallas beat a bad Tampa team. They should beat them. Just be patient and they’ll self district against a good 49ers team.” 🙄
@willcain Brother, you are phenomenal on prime time! Happy for you and good to have someone that has integrity and honesty bringing out issues we are facing today.
@willcain@FoxNews@foxandfriends@PeteHegseth@JedediahBila Congrats brother! Will miss you everyday during the week but looking forward to seeing/hearing you on the weekends! Good luck with your new career. I know you'll crush it!
@willcain He was one of two that I was hoping for. I also feel really good about Meyer but honestly, he could be amazing or a complete loss too. He’s a risk, but one I was good with.
