I can't believe that DUers are repeating ReTHUG psychobabble about

[malaise]

the Democratic Speaker being responsible for a ReTHUG failed coup - you're doing what they want - repeating their bullshit.

[jmbar2]

1. Repeating or slapping down disinformation?

I think there is value in demolishing dishonest talking points quickly, before they grow legs. JMHO

[Thunderbeast]

2. Wait!....Pelosi didn't take precautions?

I thought they were tourists!

Which is it, Kevin?

[malaise]

5. And of course it was antifa pretending to be the Slobfather's supporters but they don't want a

Commission to expose that.

It's all bullshit - they tried to overthrow the newly elected President

[wnylib]

11. Who is parroting that RW garbage about Pelosi?

I haven't seen it.

[AZ8theist]

18. Neither have I...

I don't know what the OP is talking about.
Besides, parroting Reich wing talking points is cause to get your post removed.

21. There was a post about

GQPers blaming Speaker Pelosi for poor security. I was the first one to comment on the post, yesterday, and I said that blaming Pelosi was a distraction and I commented about how it was being repeated here.

[NullTuples]

13. I agree, but that's not what this is about

This comment is about awarding you all my Internet points for the day for "The Slobfather".
It's such a perfect moniker, right down to them needing to kiss the ring.

3. K & R & Thank You

Between that & the amount of irrelevant tRump posts somedays ...

Ya know?
smdh

[Treefrog]

4. I must have missed this.

For real?

[cutroot]

6. There are trolls here. They are always trying to sneak stuff in

[Kingofalldems]

25. Yes, they post RW talking points in the form of a news item.

[BoomaofBandM]

7. The no publicity is bad publicity seems to be working for repubs.

Sorry to see it here. I will not open anything with a conservative in the heading. They don't have anything new to say, And they all say the same thing. I may start putting people on ignore who continue to keep us educated as to their latest propaganda. It just gets to be too much.

8. The false GOP claim that Pelosi turned down National Guard before Jan. 6 attack

The GOP bs claims are being fact checked

Link to tweet

The Pinocchio Test
Repeating a false claim does not make it truer. No evidence has emerged to suggest that Pelosi ignored intelligence reports about potential threats or turned down a request for reinforcements from the National Guard as officials prepared for Jan. 6.

Under pointed questioning in the Senate on Jan. 23, security officials did not say Pelosi blocked requests for backup. Irving, the former House sergeant-at-arms, testified: “It was not until the 6th that I alerted leadership that we might be making a request. And that was the end of the discussion.”

McCarthy, Stefanik and all the others leveling this baseless charge earn Four Pinocchios.

9. Which i why I can't believe DUers are repeating their BS

Back in the day mods would take that rap down and tombstone the perpe(traitors).

[gab13by13]

22. I'm with you malaise,

I commented the same way regarding a post yesterday.

[2Gingersnaps]

28. I didn't see the post yesterday....

but since "Pelosi is to blame" is the first talking point out of the mouth of McCarthy, and Gym when he was throwing his tantrum about being thrown off the Jan. 6 Committee (plus that scumbag can only speak in bullet points), we can all assume that memo made the rounds at morning meeting.

[SharonClark]

10. I haven't notice it. Any proof of your statement?

[gab13by13]

23. There was a post yesterday,

I responded the same way that malaise responded.

[Bucky]

24. Wait, there was exactly ONE POST saying this and so yall're freaking out?

I think we need to get out of panic mode.

There is not any problem of DUers spewing right wing propaganda. Let's relax and have some perspective, cool?

[Elessar Zappa]

12. That shit

should be deleted as right wing talking points.

[Demsrule86]

15. I have not seen it...we have options if we do.

[Mr. Ected]

14. What they say on camera and what they testify to under oath are oftentimes 180 degrees opposed

They know the rubes don't fact check, so they use their power over the general population to subvert law and justice.

[2Gingersnaps]

29. Exactly!

A certain Orange Menace staked a career on that concept.

[Shellback Squid]

16. as many have asked, could you back your statement malaise?

I'm here every day but I have not seen what you are describing

[marble falls]

17. There is an undercurrent of constant negativity from a bunch of DUers.

[uponit7771]

19. If that post hasn't been removed then something's wrong

[Escurumbele]

20. I haven't seen anyone parroting the new talking points of the repubs, but nonetheless

This has to posted everywhere to refute the lie that Nancy Pelosi did not deploy the Nat. Guard

Under federal law, the president is the commander-in-chief of the D.C. Guard. The president authorizes the secretary of defense to supervise and control the D.C. Guard while in its militia status (i.e., not deployed overseas). The secretary may order the Guard mobilized to aid D.C. civil authorities, but subject only to the direction of the president.

republicans cannot be more of SOBs, its impossible to be such low creatures. Why their base doesn't see the lies is something I cannot understand.

[Bucky]

26. I'm sorry, this post seems like paranoid thinking

I've not seen this phenomenon in the comments. Here in the thread, one person has cited exactly one post that had this perspective, but didn't quote it or link to it.

This is panic mongering. This is a McCarthy witch hunt for hidden Republicans under the bed.

Get over yourselves, folks. This is a discussion board for Democrats, 99%+ people here are left center, and the trolls are few and far between.

If you're really worried, inhale some oxygen and read this:

27. Recommended.

If one steps in cat or dog feces, it is best to immediately wipe it off your shoes. Same thing holds true for republican talking points. Don't spread shit.
