    Ridiculous. "Several staffers" isn't a person, and it's not a people either. It's a made up lie. It doesn't matter how many "sources" say
    it, there's no truth in it unless you (at least) have names.

    It's the usual misinformation that they push.

    A number of years ago they tried a similar thing with guns. Just quoting made up talking points. They don't seem to understand that saying a falsehood many times doesn't make it true.

    You know. Something just occured to me. I've never heard any of them say "beetlejuice".

    No, no, and no. And they didn't even tell you their name(s). Some idiot said "several staffers" and you fell for it.

    People like Alan only listen to "facts" that they agree with and ignore everything else.

    If that was his only problem, then he'd be better off, but he's going to random websites that include the keywords "factcheck" in their domain, and he's using that as justification for believing whatever they say.

    He doesn't know what he believes until a website tells him what he believes. It's sad, but true. A few of us on here have been trying to rehabilitate him for years already, but it's hopeless.

    It is. That's why I don't bother reading his (and other's) messages anymore.

    They are completely disconnected from Reality and cannot reason - let alone listen to reason.

    Mediabiasfactcheck.com isn't a government agency. What authority do they ha

    Wait I'm confused; aren't you right wingers all "oh no! deep state!"? I woul
    have thought conservatives would *prefer* a non-governmental fact che... ahhh yea, FACTS. That's where we got off the rails. Facts are anathema, forgot that heh.

    Once you are around this echo a while, you will realize that the individual on the other side of this particular discussion is just as allergic to facts as any conservative supposedly is.

    Like a blind squirrel, they will sometimes stumble upon an acorn of fact,
    but that will be the exception and not the norm.
