Why do I think you only read the headline, then posted an article detailing how Republicans are becoming the party of Nazism as a scoreboard own of the libs?

Because that is probably what happened.

YAWN....

Indeed.

When someone describes the deletion of hate speech from social media as censorship of “alt Media” they are not correctly identifying the party that is behaving in a problematic way.

And zero surprise that kidcarter8 buys into it.

I yawned without reading one of Kid's twitter links.  You're a better person than me for doing so.

Kavanaugh is about to get Me Tooed. In the firing line for how he used his thumbs in the hiring line for the disgraced and ejected judge, Alex Kozinski, he toadied for even in the role as feeder for Justice Kennedy. More of that deep stank rank republican corruption is ready to erupt from the ground and spread all over the airwaves as soon as hearings officially get underway. Will hearings get underway? Is the chance better or worse than that of trump sitting down with Mueller?

Jones conjured a fake Google conspiracy.

 “Google, because we’re also trending on Google, Google does not list us. It does not show that the app exists.” Jones showed a video that an Infowars staffer had tweeted out earlier. The video shows a phone displaying Google Play Store’s trending list.

Infowars said it was because Google didn’t want you to see the success of the app. However, it seems Jones and his crew neglected to notice that Google by default hides apps from the Play Store list that have already been installed on a user’s phone.

Had they changed that setting to display all apps, their conspiracy theory would have fallen apart.

Jones is not media.   He is an attention-seeking clown and pathological liar.   Kid,  it took me literally one minute to fact check his Google conspiracy.  It's worth your time to do the same with anything that emanates from his paranoid hate machine.

Outside of some other possibilities, this is why Trump won’t release his tax returns.
The fiasco of democrats jousting with the Emlouments Windmill would certainly be a 24/7 futile exercise if Trump’s tax returns were available.

Quote
The hyped benefits are, so far, all hype.  Republicans sold the cut as primarily a booster for middle class wages. Wages this year haven’t kept up with inflation, so real wages have gone down in 2018, especially for people below the top 25%. 
Wrong. Real wages have gone UP for everyone along with the GDP while unemployment has gone DOWN. Any rise in inflation does not change that.  But I notice your faulty logic begs the question “ “ what if there were no tax cuts while inflation went up”?

Quote
The same people Paul Ryan & Co. promised big raises to (remember that $4,000/year number?) haven’t seen squat while stock buybacks set records.  People who don’t pay attention to the daily back and forth of politics notice when they look at their paychecks once or twice a month and see that they have been lied to.
LOL. More people now have paychecks to look at thanks to the tax cuts
Quote

Democrats have done a good job articulating the trade-offs, and (accurately) describing Republican priorities.  I think it was Connor Lamb who had the ad that highlighted how quickly Ryan pivoted from passing the $1.5 Trillion tax cut to proposing cuts in social spending.
the increase in Social Spending was the democrats’ price tag for the tax cuts.
Quote
Republicans spent 8 years hyping the dangers of a deficit, and while they are strangely silent on that now, people remember.  And no one who isn’t a deeply indoctrinated right winger believes the bullshit that tax cuts pay for themselves anymore.
Hypocrisy, squared. Hillary ran on eliminating energy jobs and higher taxes.  Trump ran on lowering taxes and preserving energy jobs.

His enormous bullshit crawls out from under its rock,

My Hypocrisy, is squared. Hillary ran on eliminating energy region killing jobs and higher taxes on the wealthy and parasitically wealthy.  Trump ran on lowering taxes on the wealthy and parasitically wealthy and preserving energy region killing jobs”

Trump sure bends over to deliver for any region killing and for all parasites.

FIFY.
