I think the Freedom Convoy may have already accomplished something…

Short clip? It's over an hour long. Ain't nobody got time for that!
To be fair to jcpro - I'm sure the whole show wasn't about the truckers, it was probably just the A block. 10-20 minutes tops.

One would think Fox would release segments as self-contained videos to share more easily, but maybe they don't.

Bet you I know what he'll say. Trudeau is against freedom. He was wrong to say the protesters were racist. Liberals are bad and want to control you. Something about elites....
He will have to add in how brave the truckers are or maybe how brave his guest or right wing reporter is for bringing this story that the MSM won't touch or report fairly is.
Something like that is part of the deal.

I'm sure there are some misrepresentations as well. The cops are blocking fuel, right? That will probably be spun as the cops are *stealing* fuel.
GoFundMe said it would distribute the money to the charities the organizers indicated - that will be spun as "GoFundMe is stealing the money and giving it to charities it chooses".

The normal Tucker approach.

Isn't Carlson just an angry version of America's Funniest Home Movies?
Where you get to laugh at everyone else below your status in their misery while simultaneously blaming them for all that's wrong with your own life.

Here's the letter the GOP is sending through the pretend truckers demanding the GG turf Trudeau.
That's some batshit stuff, but not GOP.
Just part of the same transnational movement.
Definitely influenced by the "one weird trick" understanding of government.
(They want non-confidence votes against individual people? Dictated by the Governor General?)

At least they are pretending less and less that this is about mandates.

Over 92% support for the right to protests, let the covid nazis triple down on their grasp for straws!
Not sure what the figure is, but we should all support the right to protest. However, that doesn't mean we need to support the occupation of a major Canadian city where they block traffic, cause noise pollution and build semi-permanent structures. I think back to when the First Nations protested pipelines or blocked rail lines, they were removed swiftly and with violence.

What started as a simple protest has been infused with right-wing causes and led by deplorable people. And their stated goal is basically the overthrowing of the democratically elected government. That is unacceptable. It is also unacceptable that the interim leader and leading leadership candidate of the PCs are flirting with this crowd. It reeks of American MAGA views.

I agree. That's why I am curious to read what the actual poll question is. "92% support right to protest" as drewstar posted disappoints me, IMO 100% should support the right to protest. But I am skeptical 92% support this protest and I would be equally skeptical to read 92% are against this protest.

Oh, wait, was I right? So, I saved myself the time to hear disinformation or half truths.

And while Fox might be popular, I'm not sure I'd call it mainstream. It's sort of like Playboy, in which some people claim to watch it for a different take on things, but most are just looking for dirty pictures, or in this case, news that reinforces their political views. Unlike the other MSM, it doesn't attempt to have things like journalistic integrity or ethics. It does't attempt to tell the story with little bias. It acts as a propaganda outlet for the GOP.
Yeah, I know. You prefer the MSM along your own line of bias.

They pulled their MOU already. I'm sure this letter will get a similar reaction.

Project much? I mean, you are constantly posting articles for extreme right-wing outlets like Breitbart. I will say, I recognize my biases, but I also read articles from multiple news sources. Fox, as someone pointed out, has made a fortune exploiting anger from white people that they need to share their privilege to minorities. Those are the culture wars. They don't want things like the reality of slavery taught in schools. Hell, they don't even want much time spent on the holocaust or anything that might make their precious snowflake feel uncomfortable.

Now, are your news sources fair and balanced? Fuck no. I mean, Fox even dropped that when Trump got elected... Here is the way they operate. I'll keep it simple so you can follow along. Find a story that will make Biden/AOC/Democrats look bad, torque it so it seems like the shat on the flag and have sold America to its enemies. Do that until the next outrage happens! Wash, rinse, repeat. Now, when it's Trump/GOP/DeSantis (or some other right-wing friendly) that's done something questionable, defend them, give them an opportunity to lie, and of course find a way to blame it on cancel culture or simply ignore it.

Now, that's the clear difference between the right-wing media and the MSM. The MSM will attempt to cover both stories the same way. They won't sugar coat shit for either side. They will criticize both parties, slam those in power. As the old quote goes “Comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.” Hold those in power accountable for the poor decisions they make. Fox only does that with Democrats. Prove to me I'm wrong by either showing me slamming a GOPer (in good standing) for something, or an example of the MSM pulling its punches on a Democrat. While I'm sure there are examples, they probably aren't recent, and they probably are rare.

LOL. Loonie left vs the fascists right...Here's the thing: Tucker appeals to the fascists
.

No he appeals to people who get a kick out of jest at the expense of the loonies

The ones who want to overthrow the government.
Oh, I doubt many communist watch Trucker

The ones who are threatened by POC enjoying the same rights as everyone else.
More ridiculous stereotyping
The loonie left Go to - Pull out the race card whenever lacking anything of substance


The ones who realize they are being left behind because the political party they supported never had their best interests at heart, the party that cut spending on education and a social safety net that makes them dependent on their employers.
Just about every nightmare shithole city in he US is controlled by democrats

I understand why the GOP is so laser focused on AOC.
Stupid does draw attention as does comedy,
She is a clown who thinks she is a serious person

They need to put an outspoken women in her place.
If that were true she would be traveling with the circus


So, they look for any way they can to knock her down a peg.
No need to look, she makes a habit of exposing how stupid she is

They of course question her intelligence.
There is no intelligence to question
She is an ideologue reading from a script and she does not have the common sense to know when to say nothing

They try to intimidate her by posting violent videos.
Happens to anyone who demands attention. This is not a partisan

They try to make it seem like she lied about her background.
Alex from the hood growing up in Westchester?
If that bothers her, then she will not make it.
Washington is a tough town and she is not a team player.

They look for any dirt they can find...and there isn't much.
An idiot who wants to abolish capitalism and dictate how Americans will live their lives
No need for dirt

Your sweetheart will self destruct or cross the wrong person in Washington.
