US Elections (& Politics) :)

it goes WAY beyond "being criticized". If you can't see that then you have a problem. they LIE, then call it "comedy", and they do it in a way that is far closer to propaganda than anything resembling entertainment.

I watch all these shows and do find them entertaining, but I don't see the lies/propaganda you mention... I do see Trump lying all the time... I not going to try to start listing them :) ... if you think Trump doesn't lie more than most politicians/people then we can just disagree and leave it at that.

And the BIG problem with being so completely and totally one-sided is that they are using PUBLIC airwaves to do it. There is more than a little hypocrisy in those who claim to be champions of equity... I guess that's qualified with the silent part "... well-- unless we don't like it."

I don't disagree with you on this... my point is that Kimmel wasn't removed from the air because of capitalism as Portney argues. It seems pretty obvious to me that Trump wants Kimmel and the others off the air for speaking the truth because the truth hurts Trump.

The funny thing ... I see at least SOME of the lies in the late night shows, as well as the lies from the White House ( both parties ) ..

the gaslighting has been and still is strong here in the USA

"The concept of the "big lie," often attributed to Goebbels, was first articulated by Adolf Hitler in his 1925 manifesto Mein Kampf, where he argued that the larger the lie and the more often it is repeated, the more likely people are to believe it, as they would be too ashamed to conceive of such a large-scale falsehood themselves."

LGB has OFFICIALLY SPLIT from TQ+ and Charlie Kirks murder was the LAST STRAW!

Premiered Sep 22, 2025 LGBT Insanity!
For several years there has been talk of a LGBT divorce. It seems that LGB Alliance has finally had enough and made an official declaration of independence. In the wake of Charlie Kirks assassination there is even more talk about free speech and violent far leftists groups that appear to currently be the problem. While many of us still support our transsexual allies, the divorce was been on the horizon for many moons due to extremist ideology that has lead to negativity and violence across the board.

Brings to mind no tax on social security, drug prices will be reduced by 1000%, and there's no inflation. I wonder how many times I have heard these?


On the other hand, maybe it's all just bullshit...
