Wow. That's mind boggling.

Is anyone disputing that the picture is what it is purported to be? I also think Breitbart is trash fwiw.

So, let me continue to try to get your shit straight. Trump supporters endlessly and blindly following him, despite his avalanche of illegal and otherwise highly immoral acts as president, no problems here. People suggesting the Hunter Biden story may just be a bunch of crap? "YoU mUsT hAvE lImItS". Trump and his crowd continually blaming everything wrong with the US on Mexico and China? Nothing to see here. Wondering if a story which no major outlet - even Fox - wants to run with might be a ploy by Russians, who absolutely would do and have done shit like this, suddenly liberals are collectively deranged.
You're lost, man. Get a grip. Worst part is tweet quoting Glenn Greenwald in an attempt to continue to downplay Russian influence: https://www.emptywheel.net/2020/10/18/steve-bannon-guccifer-2-0-glenn-greenwald-and-me-how-glenn-greenwald-defends-smear-artist-cowards/Good read. Empty Wheel is a great source to be quoting. Basically the equivalent of Seth Abramson. Yeah, says the guy quoting GG. Point out the issues in that article and maybe I'll cede that. You won't. If you don't like that one, here's another going over what we still haven't learned from the Mueller report that you and your kin gleefully cheer as a hoax: https://www.lawfareblog.com/whats-new-unredacted-mueller-reportTry that one if you prefer. You seem to know a lot about Flynn et al, enlighten us. I got far enough in to the empty wheel article to see that he/she is defending the excommunication of maggie haberman for merely linking to the NYP story. And he/she is dim enough to think that it was Maggie's tweet, more so than the viral reaction to Maggie's tweet, that actually drew attention to the NYP story. As for flynn I've posted plenty about his case. If you think the criminal and national security theories that were dreamt up against him for his (randomly surveilled) phone call were well founded, I've got a bridge for you. The NYP is a tabloid newspaper owned by Murdoch and MH is predominantly a self-serving journalist. That story has been amplified despite it being a complete load of bullshit and most respectable organizations know as much. That's why she's been called out (in her follow-up tweets, MH admits as much). Maybe think a bit more about how that 'viral reaction' came to fruition; why someone might push for such a reaction to this (and who). Flynn's a scumbag and has admitted guilt multiple times. His lawyer is just a complete rat-fucker which is suitable given the rest of the people connected to Trump that have been found guilty by their peers. Stop defending these crooks you hack. I'd recommend checking your TDS. Maggie linked to the NYP article in a single tweet and resistance twitter lost its mind. Similar to how, in trumps town hall recently, there was a woman nodding her head in the background in agreement with trump - and the resistance lost its collective mind. Also the mueller team threatened flynns son so he cut a deal. That's actually a very simple matter. You are only trying to criminalize your political opposition, because like many, you haven't gotten your TDS in check yet. I can only imagine what things will be like if trump wins again. TDS, really? We reddit now? Again, read the articles and the underlying sourced material. Gave you two options and you're doing nothing but gaslighting like that hack you are. The hostility you direct toward someone who has the gall to point out the silliness of some of the attacks on trump and those around him, is itself evidence of derangement. But your empty wheel is some nonsense about "MAGA Haberman" and I've read enough lawfare to know how eager they are to criminalize trump. I might get around to the flynn article though because I do find that stuff interesting and I imagine it would be easy to point out the overzealousness of the lawfare writers' arguments. You seem to think you're some sort of hero when all you're doing is gaslighting. I get it upsets you to be called out but that shit just shouldn't fly here. The man is a criminal through and through and a complete wreck of a POTUS. Keep grasping at those Hunter straws while the dipshit lines his pockets with taxpayer dollars, basically all in plain sight, and fights tooth and nail to not disclose his finances and or whom he owes a half billion dollars (or more) to. It's pathetic man.
He owes $400 million or so to Deutsche Bank and we knew that before the 2016 election. But I assume you think he owes it to Putin directly or that Deutsche Bank is Putin's alter ego.

It's very lazy to dismiss any individual story without actually addressing that story, especially when there are documents and/or pictures.

Breitbart makes Murdoch look like a responsible, ethical news person. You have to understand, we're not talking about just "far right". We're talking about white ethno-nationalists who are also afraid of jews. No one besides xdaunt has ever even tried using them as a source, iirc, before this.
Some of their headlines:
'Political Correctness Protects Muslim Race Culture'
'Birth Control Makes Women Unattractive and Crazy'
'Gay Rights Have Made Us Dumber, It's Time To Get Back Into The Closet'
'Bill Kristol: Republican spoiler, renegade Jew'
'Would you rather your child had feminism or cancer?'
'The solution to online 'harassment' is simple: Women should log off'

I literally don't believe anything from brietbart, so yes, I do suspect it of being manipulated in some way. Them pushing it makes me actually think the whole thing is made up. Their credibility is that low.

Does this mean I can start citing The Onion or The Beaverton?

The irony of him making that statement.

Yet you guys will be into headlines from the collusion conspiracists hook, line and sinker.

The real truth is that you just want to avoid stories that are unfavorable to Biden. Memories of Comey's 2016 announcement are coming up.

Breitbart is a pretty useful news source to see what a certain segment of society believe and value, less of that veneer or hiding behind weasel words on there.

If your story has any value, it will be relayed by other medias that are not conspiracy mongering neo fascists crap, I think that's what people are trying to tell you.
And if the only source you find is from said conspiracy mongering neo fascists goons, maybe it's not a good story and there is something majorly wrong with it. Because there are plenty of serious outlets who would be delighted to post a serious story against Biden right now if it has any credibility.

The real truth is that Trump is a lying piece of shit 100% of the time, while Biden, as any politician, probably has some skeletons in his closet.
Latest exemple ? (well it was already advanced by DOJ a few days ago, since the court asked them to go fucking confirm with the president, and here is the result).
Trump publicly and very cleanly said he had ordered the declassification of everything related to the Russia probe. As with everything he says, he suddenly didn't say it, or not like that, when it's convenient to him. This president will not take responsibility for everything, EVER.
White House lawyers told the judge hearing the case in Washington, D.C. federal court, Reggie Walton, that the president's tweet had no relevance to the BuzzFeed case, but the judge said he wanted to know what the president's personal position was.
“It seems to me when a president makes a clear, unambiguous statement of what his intention is, that I can’t rely on the White House Counsel’s Office saying, ‘Well, that was not his intent,’” Walton said at a court hearing last week, according to The Washington Post.
“I think the American public has a right to rely on what the president says his intention is,” added Walton, a former presiding judge of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.

You reckon maybe that you ought not to be leaning on things like 'the real truth' on a story that's a long way from confirmed legitimacy?
You going to be telling us all about how we should have given heed to pizzagate next?

Comey's 2016 announcement also wound up being pure bullshit, so I guess that's a good comparison. The announcement "New emails may have been found" wound up being "absolutely nothing new was found".
