Rejoinders to Tovarich Tucker's gaslighting / whitewashing Jan. 6 insurrection --
We all saw the attempted coup on January 6 w/our own eyes. Now, Fox, Elon & a bunch of other folks are trying to convince us we didn't see what we saw. Why? Because acknowledging reality permanently discredits most GOP leaders & undercuts the goals of their foreign sponsors.

Schumer: Last night, millions of Americans tuned into one of the most shameful hours we’ve seen on cable television. By diving deep into the waters of conspiracy and cherry-picking from thousands of hours of security footage, Mr. Carlson told the bold-faced lie… pic.twitter.com/dKEw2tJVKw

The story here isn't "Tucker presents new footage but a fact check challenges his claims." Rather, it's "Republicans help Tucker find another way to propagandize and lie about 1/6."

Weird how Tucker Carlson, the guy who said Trump was a demonic force & that it was better to lie than to upset his followers, somehow managed to cherry pick 5 minutes out of 4,000 hours where the rampaging hoard didn’t look quite as bad as WE ALL remember them being.

So. Weird.
The Republican nominee for president will either believe or pretend to believe that Trumpists were the real victims of Jan. 6. The pressure to adopt insane views on this will be quite strong. pic.twitter.com/XNtLMDdxQP

Glory to this Hero and Glory to the Heroes of Ukraine. History will judge Vladimir Putin and the Russian government. They will eventually… https://t.co/q5bWzInekt pic.twitter.com/xf37yCLWvP
What's that Musk-y smell? World's Worst Boss (and Jan. 6 insurrection denier) --
Elon Musk talking shit about his own employee for being “independently wealthy” is the first funny thing he’s posted on this website. https://t.co/iOXAYVm2Dk

Expecting women sue over Texas' misogynist anti-choice laws --
Five women who say they were denied abortions despite grave risks to their lives or their fetuses have sued the State of Texas. It appears to be the first time that pregnant women themselves have taken legal action against abortion bans since the end of Roe.
