  It’s very telling that most of the articles you post are from notthebee.com.

  Try living in the real world some time.

    Zombie, do you have anything to add? Like maybe how reliable notthebee is, hell even an example of notthebee lying for extra points.

    Please remember that this sub is about discussing right wing stories.

      Not The Bee regularly posts properly sourced highly factual articles that are heavily biased towards the right.

      Fox News, OAN and NewsMax could all take a page from NTB’s book because those three fail fact checks regularly.

    Fox News has pay walls, not the bee doesn’t and has mostly the same info. It’s basically the same thing as wapo or commondreams or salon, just from the other side of aisle.

    !politics@lemmy.world has those as sources right now.

      Fox News is garbage, too. They have been shown to be proven liars in court multiple times.

      Who took the Washington Post to court for defamation and won a record-setting judgement? Fox defames people and institutions as a matter of course.

      Politics has those bad commentary sites (which I would prefer they didn’t), but there are actual news sources posted there.

      All I see here is commentary from people who are motivated to enrage conservatives based on spurious reasoning and culture war bullshit.

  Someone very wise recently told me:

  Just crying and throwing a fit because people disagree with you doesn’t make it a bad bill

    But a bill that effectively opens borders while keeping any sort of welfare is a bad bill.

      Except it doesn’t effectively open the border, where you getting that from? Democrats really want that aid for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, so were willing to compromise. That’s how this works. If the border is a really pressing and important issue, then I think there would be some motivation to make a deal quickly, even if republicans can’t get everything they want. Otherwise it seems like the urgency is entirely manufactured for dramatic effect. I’m not saying anything new: an ex-president doesn’t want the “border crisis” solved. Are republican voters going to catch on to such blatent duplicity?
