Like I said in another comment, I could have been more clear on my initial comment.

I edited my comment. I could have been more clear. I should have added that I think it depends on what the creator of the graphics/information is trying to show. If it's a pure death rate comparison, then sure you could lump eve

I'm not a statistician or a scientist, but I don't it does any good to lump everything together over the past ~9 months and compare it to Influenza and Pneumonia. Just think about it. We barely knew anything about covid or how to

Ahhh, I didn't think about the Lumber Industry pushing for less prescribed fires. Makes sense.

Politicians lie, so get over it. Trump just isn't as good as the others because 1) he doesn't give a fuck and 2) they've had more practice. And honestly, I don't care if what he says isn’t accurate all the time. Nobody

I don't know who is right, but I always think it's always good to look at important issues from multiple points of views. If anyone is interested in understanding another point of view, check out Tucker Carlson. He has black gues

I get what you are saying and agree there is a difference between knowing something and believing something. However, when someone believes something is true, that can mean multiple things, I take it to mean they think there is a high proba

That's a fair point. I will say that he isn't afraid of calling out the BS on the right.

Help me understand what is wrong with that statement. If he fishes there regularly and sees (what he believes) are immigrants dumping trash, then isn't that statement true? How do you what he saw? This seems like splitting hairs.

Alright, so he was wrong 8 times out of ~10,000 statements in the last 4 years? Or, am I missing something?

Why not Tucker Carlson? Just for the record, I subscribe to The Intercept and am a fan of Glenn Greenwald.

I just don't get it. Are some people just incapable of doing basic research or reading an entire article? Trump sought to clarify his comments Friday afternoon again on Twitter: "Looting leads to shooting, and that's why a m

Please stop spreading lies. He never said Mexicans are rapist. He said: "When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best," Trump said. "They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people t
