Dipped into OAN

THey're reporting the events of yesterday's insurrection as an attack against police. No mention of resignations, chryon of fencing being put up around Trump Properties to protect them.

Some tool on FOX is making false equivalencies to BLM protests and how outraged he was that they "trashed his neighborhood." (not likely). "Unlike them," he said, "we don't play favorites with our riot responses." The black man is speaking truth, and the tool in the center is angry, visibly angry, eyes bugged out angry, and shouting. Their whole business model is done.

Boycotts of advertisers work.

they already are if they try and justify what went on. Lots of republicans, but probably not enough, have to be appalled. Quite a few disillusioned that nothing worked and Trump will be gone.

The last thing I can see is some guy thinking, by golly maybe I was wrong voting for Biden. Those people are right and we should let Trump stay. Those two networks are stuck fighting for the bottom feeders with no way to grow other than steal from each other.

Trumplicans and Fascists/anarchists

The GOP as we knew it is Gone with the Whigs...

These are great because they are conspiracy theories which are falsifiable.

They can and will be debunked conclusively as the ringleaders are unmasked.

Isn't that right Geraldo Rivera?
