Seems to me the tide has been going out pretty vigorously since a bunch of smart folks started writing on Substack and Twitter files. Looking forward to more of the same.
I just feel immense sadness when I see someone like Ken Burns (among so many others), who are obviously intelligent and wiser than your average college kid or panelist on The View, degrade themselves in service of the Cause and shrink themselves down into dime-a-dozen talking heads, preaching to the choir and becoming just another politician. (21st-century culture seems to have transformed everyone, from rock stars to filmmakers etc, into the same dreary politician preaching tribal dogma. Intellectual conformity is the real toxic pandemic of our time.)
That being said, I don't know where liberals can go from here: if every conservative belief is ipso facto beyond the pale, if every conservative is just a Nazi Klansman under a thin coat of paint, if every time the Democrats lose an election it's (cue hysteria) the death of democracy and encroaching fascism—how do we live together and come to some sort of agreement or compromise? Where is their off-ramp? How do they share a country with people they so obviously despise?
I really wish Shelby Foote were still alive (though of course he'd be cancelled) to explain to us how much all this is starting to smell like 1850s America.
I’m holding strong to NO AMNESTY for anyone who has keep the false narrative going. NO AMNESTY for anyone involved with getting these experimental jabs into people - especially children. NO AMNESTY for anyone connected to the WEF in any capacity.
These people can all screw off -- they had plenty of time to demand access to the actual footage, but they were complicit with Pelosi's attempt to hide it all. They only complain after Tucker gets access but they don't. (They should release all the video to the public)
Is Tucker just preaching to the choir? I certainly feel some vindication for my perspective on this topic but wonder if there will be any movement of the public attitude needle on this topic. The entire system has failed at this point and I don’t see how it gets righted. I always saw the judiciary as the last line of defense but the federal judges in DC are as corrupted, if not more so, as anyone in the swamp.
What the useful idiots like Ken Burns miss is that "our Republic" includes a growing body of people who have had it with the lying idiocracy that has infested our once great nation, like worms at a trash dump. Ken, YOUR republic is one of lying, stealing sociopaths & liars and we aren't part of it.
The Burns guy accusing Tucker of rewriting history for showing raw footage made me do a spit-take. I guarantee this guy is fully in favor race-swapping historical characters in movies, adopting the 1619 project for the official curriculum, and wildly exaggerating events such as the Tulsa riots. I say this without knowing him, so how can I know that he favors these things? Because his side act like herd animals.
I think what I find most curious is realizing just how much cast-iron gall it took to suppress this. The startling cynicism, hypocrisy, and arrogance here is simply beyond me.
Has any Senator come to Tucker’s defense? What a tell. Maybe someone did, but the only one I have seen is Rep. Massey. It would be nice for someone to stand up for We the People. I forgot the turtle explained it all. The J6 committee heard from the Capital Police Chief. She knows an insurrection when it happens. Know she is head of security at Communist U. There is nothing here.
"I now see I was lied to an conned. I am ashamed I believed it, and held it against you. Next time, even if i disagree, I promise to at least listen. I am sorry."
That is really all I ever want to hear. Instead everyone acts like McConnell.
One part I disagree with. I don’t know the pastor from Adam, but someone is lying, either the pastor or the health officials.
If there’s anything I’ve learned over these last three years, it’s that govt health officials lie every bit as much, if not worse, than politicians. Definitely worse than used car salesmen.
If I had to choose, I’d say the health officials perjured themselves knowing that there is no penalty for official perjury these days. See Russiagate for examples.

Don’t believe your lying eyes, comrade.

I must've been asleep at the wheel... when did Ken Burns become an authority on what democracy is or isn't?

And he accuses us of rewriting history?
I just ... I ... What....

Ken Burns is such a disgrace. I expect this from Schumer and Cocaine Mitch. Ken should at least smart enough to STFU.

Hope you're right Chris. The jackals undoubtedly have plans for more entertainment for us.
