The Las Vegas Review-Journal, Mikey’s Employer is owned by Sheldon Adelson. Adelson owns The Sands and The Venetian. So as long as that Mobbed up casino Money keeps coming, Mikey will continue to be the Holier than Thou, Right wing Tool of Sheldon Adelson.
It may just be that having freedom of speech and a free press will both have had a large part in having gotten us into this mess, and perhaps, can help get us out of the mess. The cancerous news from Fox, Breitbart, Infowar, etc., was a large part of the disinformation and propoganda campaign that brought us here, amplifying trump’s malignancy and that of his base. Add in trump’s conspiracy with the Russians and it’s a volatile toxic mess of lies, distortions and trump’s synchophants who lie and distort with ease. Truth means nothing to these people. Power is all.
But the NY Times, Washington Post, and the other mainstream media continue to report extensively on the regressives’ naked, raw, unbridled lust for power. The press continues to enjoy first amendment protections that will, hopefully, keep the regressives from murdering reporters the way Putin does.
Given the tone of the fascist trump rallies, I certainly wouldn’t put murder of journalists beyond trump and his minions. Think that’s beyond the pale? Think again. He loves Putin, who murders journalists. He loves Kim, who has no journalists, but would surely murder them the way he murders his political rivals. Think about trump’s second amendment solutions, very nice Nazis, lock her up, and the rest of the sleazy fascist crap spewing forth from the sociopathic psychopath day and night. Oh yeah, if he could get away with it Nobel prize winning economist Paul Krugman would be sleeping with the fishes.
The regressives’ greedy lust for raw power is stark and obvious. Except for that greed and lust for power, they have expressed few guiding motivations, principles, or ethical aspirations. There’s no “working for the common good,” because for these clowns, compromise is a dirty word, and collaboration to solve problems is likewise an obscenity.
At least the NYT, Washington Post, NPR, The New Yorker, Atlantic, Wired, Scientific American and the like keep truth as a first principle. Somebody has to.
Newspapers have always been useful for birdcages. They were once even useful in their former role as “watchdogs” until in the last 50 years or so they morphed into the PR wing of the Democrat Party. The MSM was in its infancy when it led the coup d’etat against Nixon. It is on a roll today. For perspective, if they had gone after Obama as he was “transforming” American culture like they are going after Trump for trying to recover as much of it as possible, Obama and many of his deep state cronies would already be behind bars.
“Ruined Brett Kavanaugh’s life”? Say what? And what “we”? It seems to me that people who tell lots of lies sort of ruin their own lives, though if you’re the president you can get away with it for a long time. I doubt that most people hold K.’s underage drinking against him, or his teenager loutishness (unattractive as that is), but lying about it is going too far.
This is a response to The McChuck. I didn’t want it to languish in the replay category because it gets to the heart of many of our disagreements. .. I never did understand the way you RWNJ have decided that I hate America. I think you are simply misguided and stupid but I have never claimed you WANT to destroy America I just think that is the result. I am a Former Infantry Combat Soldier. I have carried weapons and fired at human beings because I Love America and all that she stands for. I want to fix our problems and uphold the ideals of our founding. You see fellow citizens as the enemy that needs to be destroyed. I think if you had more education, understanding and empathy you would see things the way I do. You see me as the enemy, I see you as patriotic but ill informed. That is how you and I are different.

Ramirez is safe taking a shot at the NYTimes, they don’t hire political cartoonists.

Ugh. The bird deserves far better than the NYT to crap on. You could wrap dead fish in it, but that would be insulting to the fish.

And the Republicans lose another member. Tom Nichols doesn’t like the Democrats but has finally become disgusted with the Trumpublicans.

Ramirez cartoons are very appropriate for the bottom of bird cages.
Especially if the bird is a ChickenHawk.

The NY Times may lean left but it has integrity. Fox News is an unapologetic mouthpiece for the right.

Not surprisingly Mr. Ramirez came up with a bird brained cartoon.
