Can corporate media become worse?! Yes but this Politico headline on front page this AM about Hunter Biden pardon is one of the worst. We all KNOW Trump was going to pardon the Jan 6 terrorists and other criminals who can help him. Biden's pardon meant nothing. This is called Normalizing FASCISM: - ThreadSky

I find it interesting that when SCOTUS said trump had virtually unlimited powers, the republicans had no issue with that. Now that Biden is exercising the power that trump used and pardoned a family member, suddenly, he cannot do that.

If only Biden hadn’t pardoned his son, Trump would have behaved with decorum and decency?

He’s not even in office yet and I’m already so exhausted by this nonsense.

thetimeline.bsky.social•163 days ago

WTF?? Look at the unprecedented pardons the felon tossed our like his stupid paper towel stunt. And to folks who already admitted they were guilty.

Hate to go here, but…

The felon started it. And NO ONE was ruffled then?! Ugh

Does Politico know about the 246 pardons Trump issued on his way out the door? Many of them having committed far more serious crimes than Hunter. It’s like they woke up last week and just learned of the pardon power.

Holding Dems to a higher standard is how this works. The same conduct is softly covered when Repubs do it, but when the Dems do it, the uproar is deafening. It's a subtle tool to keep the Dems from fighting back in the street brawl. The corporate media is fighting on the side of the fascist GOP.

LMAO Trump is going to do whatever he wants and can get away with. He could give a damn about Biden, other than to play his moronic base with see I told you.

I stopped getting Politico on my feed about 6 months ago. They have been terrible. Even The Atlantic is caving. These people need to step away from their electronic world and spend 6 months talking to real people around the country. They only understand data and research, not human emotions.

According to the media, searches for the word “tariff” increased 1650% after the election. If I were in the information business, I’m not sure I’d be proud of the fact that so much of my audience had so little that was useful when it was needed most. But that’s just me…

I don’t listen to terrestrial radio. I am sure the 1500+ corporate right wing radio stations are hammering this. This is ratings for them!

tomtrainor.bsky.social•163 days ago

Whatever happened to actual journalism where there would be a story with research, investigation and interviews? This is just a random opinion backed up with no facts masquerading as news.

excannbiz.bsky.social•163 days ago

I suspect corporate media will get worse.
This non-sense around the Hunter pardon and it now giving Trump 'license' for pardoning the J6 terrorists is especially disgusting. I guess we'll need to prepare for the 'retroactive blame' to be placed on dems for all the bad shit Trump will do next year

deanobeidallah.bsky.social•163 days ago

I suspect you are correct!!

cjmcg1966.bsky.social•163 days ago

Normalizing, and blaming Joe Biden?

cjl8305.bsky.social•163 days ago

Unfollowed Politico on all Social Media. Seem to be propaganda 🤔

deantomasula.bsky.social•163 days ago

There's a reason Charlie Pierce calls Politico "Tiger Beat on the Patomac." Do they really think Trump needs to pint to Biden as justification for what he does and will do?

davidcchord.bsky.social•163 days ago

It should be called "Politicized"

lrw63.bsky.social•163 days ago

Looks like the media swallowed the fascist agenda

ginadee57.bsky.social•163 days ago

Exactly!

ristox.bsky.social•163 days ago

It would be amazing argument if Biden's pardon would have any efect what Trump is going to do. I can tell you a secret, Biden's pardon has no efect on anything what Trump and maga does. Stop acting otherwise.

Politico=Garbage

justinebayarea.bsky.social•163 days ago

Fuckin A.

Can I say that here?

alwayskaty.bsky.social•163 days ago

Nazi journalism, plain and simple.

saneresponz.bsky.social•163 days ago

Give me a break, Politico! Do you think Trump plays fair? Biden leaving his son vulnerable to the cruel vengeance of Trump would be the equivalent of staking a goat in front of a hungry lion.

Gonna have to leave them the way we left X. Let them talk amongst themselves.

aramintas-legacy.bsky.social•163 days ago

All of it.. legacy media has to crash & burn.
Its the only way out.

jeffwaid.bsky.social•163 days ago

Murc's Law. The notion that anything Democrats do alters what Republicans will try to do is deliberate nonsense. Trump and Republicans will always do everything they can do. They will not stop; they can only be defeated.
