Thinking a lot about this @washingtonpost headline again which, were it a person, would be on trial for abuse of the English language

"Biden relies on pattern of activity to blame Russia for release of data from what is said to be his son’s laptop"
washingtonpost.com/politics/russi…
That’s a headline! It’s meant to quickly convey meaning!
I am haunted by this wanton mangling of diction and syntax.
I’m going to run for President so that I can use the full weight of the US legal system exclusively to persecute whoever constructed this monstrosity.
Wars have been started for less than this offense.
I will be buried in the cold hard ground before I stop being mad about this.

The Hunter Biden story broke two months ago. Most of the media ignored it or called it “Russian disinformation,” despite no evidence that it was.

Now that the election is over, the story, it seems, is fit to print.

Who’s up for a little before and after?
You’ll remember that one of the key players in all this was Tony Bobulinski, a former business associate of Hunters.

Well, you might not if you’ve only read @CNN. As of last night, they’d never mentioned him. But their homepage featured Hunter and China.

Funny, that.
And surely you’ll remember that @CNN had former DNI James Clapper on the program to say that the Post’s reporting - that blew the lid off of the Biden family corruption in the first place - was “classic textbook Soviet Russian tradecraft” back in October.

Despite their homepage headline about Hunter Biden, a search for “Bobulinski,” the former business associate of Hunter who spoke out before the election about the Biden family’s shady dealings, still comes up empty at @CNN.
The guy who went on national television to blow the whistle about all of this *before* the election goes right down the memoryhole.
More of the same at @NPR. Bobulinski turns up three results - all about other Bobulinskis.

Can we be honest here for a second?

There is no mass voter fraud conspiracy, and the people claiming otherwise are mostly doing it to make a buck or get attention.
These claims have been laughed out of courts across the country and rejected by Trump’s own DOJ. The campaign has even distanced itself from Powell & co.

You’re being asked to believe the most outlandish, unbelievable story in American history.

There is no reason to believe it.
Others have made the “well how do YOU know that?!” case better than I’ll be able to. But this is just black helicopters/lizard people stuff at this point. Lots of you don’t want to hear that but need to.

So check out this article for the unpleasant truth: google.com/amp/s/www.nati…

Raimondo has presided over the sixth-most COVID deaths per capita of any state, more than double the rate of Wisconsin, Ohio or California.

If RI were a country, its deaths per capita (130/100,000) would be the third highest in the world, behind Belgium & San Marino (pop 1,650).
stats on mortality here: coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/mortality

on US state data here: statista.com/statistics/110…
I don't know why these stats don't matter to so many left-leaning thought leaders. The governors who consistently get plaudits - Cuomo, Murphy, now Raimondo - often have the worst records in addressing the coronavirus.

Minneapolis, ground zero of “defund the police,” is on pace for its 2nd highest annual murder rate this year.

The year-over-year increase alone (30, just through the first 11 months) is more than the *total* number of unarmed people in the city killed by police since 2000 (28).
Stat on that last one based on data compiled by @StarTribune data, linked here: m.startribune.com/fatal-police-e…
Officer involved killings are tragic and complex. But the way that we talk about addressing them has become increasingly unmoored from the data, which is bad.

Today’s news about China’s poor and deceptive handling of the coronavirus outbreak should serve as a wake up call for those in the media who praised and defended it.

Because it’s a long, long list of those who served as an apologist for China’s response. 👇
Given @CNN broke the bad news today on China, it seems like a good place to start the list of those who vouched for them.

They carried water for China’s propaganda for months, and criticized @VP for rightly blaming their response for the global death toll.
Of all of @CNN’s people on the anti-Trump beat, it seems @jgriffiths was dedicated to covering for China in their response, and obfuscating the truth in criticism from Trump and others.
