The fact that I know more about Fani Willis’ and Nathan Wade’s relationship than I do about the crimes committed by Ginni Thomas and Clarence Thomas shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

The fact it mattered at all & Trumps grifting crimes could be washed away because she had an adult relationship with another adult (yet Matt Gatez didn’t) is astounding.
Willis and Wade aren't members of The Super-Rich Club who *also* can (and do!) offer SCOTUS-level decisions to other, super-rich people in exchange for lavish vacations and expensive gifts.
Mainstream media is run by the super-rich. Et, voila!
And apparently it DIDN'T end well. So the fact that she tapped him anyway would say something about the level of his abilities and her putting aside her own personal feelings about him.
MSM is a joke and run by Republican billionaires. I can't imagine Walter Cronkite getting on there and telling us his opinion about the news. It's not news anymore it's opinion and they're too busy sucking somebody's dick to tell us the truth
This is a power grab by the ultra-rich
Musk has no authority
GoldmanSachs says dont cure illness, ration health to keep prices high
Like gas
Like housing
Like education
Like Food

The MSM is going to be hurt very bad by the intelligent people who will tune out to the BS. We will watch movies play games with our friends and family. I hope every one of them hit rock bottom.
There's been talk of getting rid of Thomas and Alito and I'd be all for it if it weren't for the fact they would get meaner, nastier and younger assholes to replace 'em. They have to stick around 4 more years so we can replace them with humans.
The media is consolidated under huge corporations who have a not-so-vested interest in not talking about the crimes of their wholly owned subsidiaries in government.
The media has been worse than worthless the last four years. They distract and misinform intentionally. I scan Reuters and AP a couple times a day and if my psyche can stomach the anxiety, dig deeper into the stories that seem more than a news cycle distraction.
humorously enough, the fact that you're posting about this and not about the dire threats that are facing this country... is actually the whole problem
and why "the media" keeps spooning people this preteen gossip column bs instead of actually important news
1, what's terribly wrong with Fannie Willis for jeopardizing such a massively important case when she absolutely knows the law and the current political climate well enough to know better
2, what's terribly wrong with *people* that the media knows have an appetite for this
You are so right about that!!! I could care less about Fani and Wade BUT I DO CARE about holding Clarence and Ginni accountable for the bribes and their participation in J6!!!
I want to know why we were not protected from these people after January. Why were they permitted to be so emboldened. They all should have been arrested. Put in military prisons!
Alt.true-crime has several posts detailing the crimes and unethical behaviour of Clarence Thomas he should be long gone from the bench. Google Groups has alt.true-crime. Have no idea who Fani Willis and Nathan Wade are.
The media has a tendency to report on what gets the most clicks and what tidbit glitters the most. It’s more about entertainment than about the basic facts.
3/ It’s a bad look and bad for the justice system. Willis made a grave error having a relationship with a subordinate, but it was, as far as it seems (and apparently the trial judge agrees) not disqualifying. 3/
2/ the trial judge actually hears the evidence, sees the witnesses, and the law has long thought they were in the best position to decide within that standard. This iteration of the Ct of App is populated with too many judges who want to put their personal opinion in the place of the trial judges /2
1/ We should take issue with the Ga Court of Appeals second guessing trial judges when the matter involves discretion. When the standard of proof is “abuse of discretion”, since the beginning of our system, appellate courts have given trial judges great latitude because /1
Add Mark Meadows, Trump’s past chief of staff, to the Ginni and Clarence Thomas’ relationship and connect all of them to Trump and the January 6 riot at the Capitol. Right now the GOP is trying to sweep that riot under the rug.
What ever happened to that binder of Americas most dangerous secrets? It was all the buzz after the mar-a-Lago raid. WHERE’S THE BINDER? They screamed! Then all at once everyone just stopped mentioning it?
Legacy media is fucked. They're done. I will never trust them again.
I remember Cronkite, Rather, Jennings, Wallace, Brokaw, and others who reported the news instead of focusing on sensationalism.
I just posted that about Cronkite. I can't imagine him telling us the news and then giving us his opinion. His job was to report the news not sensationalize it just report the news. This country is going to hell in a hand basket as quick as it can and these people are voting for it
“Exactly. The media feeds us drama, not accountability. Fani Willis gets scrutinized for her work while Ginni and Clarence Thomas evade real consequences. This isn’t journalism—it’s complicity. The imbalance shows who gets protected and who gets exposed. Enough is enough. 🔥 #JusticeNow”
The M$M is dead
Filling our lives with dread
We need to stop watching it
It’s all such nonsense and bullshit
The advertisers will flee
The owners will soon see
We’re showing the media we’re not taking it anymore!
I havn't turned on the TV since the election. Four years of Biden bashing. Hour after hour of Afghanistan. Hour after hour of he's so old. A whisper of reporting on new infrastructure, NATO, COVID success and strongest post covid economy. Just he's so old and no reflection on their bias for bucks.
Ppl should be able to have bedroom gymnastics with who tf they want to,co-workers or not as long ppl wanna hump eachother.
Wonder how many families that wouldn't exist if not for meeting eachother at work....?
They got fooled into thinking it's only one side, the same way we're getting fooled into supporting what we blame the other side for when "our" side does it
Turns out they're all corrupt bastards & are just trying to get us to normalize their corruption so long as "our team" does it
R/L issues are a diversion.
The wealthy could care less about how people feel about politics, religion, race, etc.
As long as we are preoccupied arguing with each other, they can continue to rob us all.
Why would anyone normalize tax breaks for the wealthiest people?
Politicians enable corruption.
Yep that's what culture wars are all about. I wonder what these fuckers did behind closed doors while we're all freaking out over president musk and vice president Trump. Can't trust any of these people
Get it all to be no different than team sports. Like how athletes can do the most horrific things and are excused with "but he'll make us win the big game"
In an interview, Ginni's uncle said of the couple, "I can guarantee you I was surprised when I found out she was going with a black man", to which her aunt added, "but he was so nice, we forgot he was black, and he treated her so well all of his other qualities made up for his being black."
I wonder if even in 1950 those sorts of comments would have raised eyebrows? Are some people only able to feel alive, important, worthy by denigrating others?

How sad is that.

Normalizing oligarchs doing whatever they want with no accountability to insure revenue streams.
In the attention economy clicks and checks are all that matter.
We need an army of independent journalists that are vetted to adhere to pure journalistic principles. FACTS and TRUTHS.
We need to independently fund them so they aren't slaves to billionaire money, but to the peoples money.
If they exist now, let me know, but we need an ARMY of them

Yes indeed. The powerful are protected by the highest levels of the USG. Democracies can not survive this level of corruption. 🚩
and why "the media" keeps spooning people this preteen gossip column bs instead of actually important news
It's called supply and demand

Let's finish the job by bankrupting them as we turn them off, cancel our subscriptions, boycott their advertisers and finally walk away for good.
L. F. G. people.
We’re going to have nothing but propaganda news from here out.
Too many greedy corporate news station owners. They’ve all become
“Fox-Light”.

AND a very important case along with her/them
(boyfriend has blame in this as well; THEY should have known better)
The end.
🤔🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
The MAGA prefers S.A and forced sexual relation it seem like..
Wonder how many families that wouldn't exist if not for meeting eachother at work....?
needs to be called out for what it is.
US law enforcement is a joke when it comes to the rich.
Epstein's list exists... they rape children for ffs.
Trump was convicted of 34 felonies... no sentence.
The examples are endless.
Trump and his ilk laugh at the law.
Why wouldn't they?

One rich guy gets prosecuted and they hire a law firm to upend the lives of everybody involved in the prosecution.
Quite the system we have.
what are your solutions to not have it happen again

In addition, the "youngsters" (taken from comments on TikTok) who think it's fine to allow Musk to dictate what is going on in congress.
