Let’s talk about undermining the Supreme Court — and who benefits.

POLITICO just got an award for publishing the leaked Dobbs opinion (the leaker is still at large). In accepting the award, the journos claimed that Dobbs was part of ongoing judicial activism from the Right.
First off, Dobbs reversed judicial activism. Returning the power over abortion to state legislatures is pro-democracy not activism.

If anything Roe v. Wade was part of a larger Left wing effort to paint with a national brush rather than pursuing a controversial agenda on the… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
But let’s talk about undermining the legitimacy of the Supreme Court.

Whether it is @SenWhitehouse and the Left's attacks on Brett Kavanaugh’s yearbook, Amy Coney Barrett’s faith, or Clarence Thomas’ skin color and wife, Dems and the media have been using PERSONAL attacks to… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Time to once again shame everyone who lied and tried to shut this discussion down!

A thread:
WaPo: “Tom Cotton keeps repeating a coronavirus conspiracy theory that was already debunked”

“Sen. Cotton (R-Ark.) repeated a fringe theory suggesting ongoing spread of a coronavirus is connected to research in the disease-ravaged epicenter of Wuhan”
washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/…
In a now-retracted fact-check, Politifact gave a Tucker Carlson guest a “Pants on Fire” for the “debunked conspiracy theory” that COVID came from a lab. politifact.com/li-meng-yan-fa…

After YEARS of calling Republicans child killers, monsters, and science deniers for wanting to reopen schools, WaPo is now acting like it was some unavoidable consequence of COVID that kids fell way behind. They’re truly shameless.

A thread:
WaPo said that Trump was “causing even more needless illness and death” by tweeting that schools should reopen.

washingtonpost.com/opinions/trump…
“The zeal with which President Trump, a batch of Republican governors, right-wing media and Trumpist followers demand that children go back to school amid a pandemic surge should shock one’s conscience.”

"Booming Democrat economy" where Americans are struggling to afford groceries and utilities, parents have a hard timing finding medicine or baby formula for their children, and credit card usage has hit an all time high among record interest rates
This administration is a failure

Daily Beast in August: “Tucker Carlson ‘Shitting Himself’ Scared That His Alex Jones Texts May Leak!!” Would be “highly embarrassing” for Carlson.”

HuffPost today: “The texts alone are not the bombshell some media reports had hinted at” huffpost.com/entry/exclusiv…

Womp womp
HuffPost claims that Alex Jones got Tucker to repeat the “unfounded conspiracy theory” that UV light kills COVID.

Except one of the other outlets to tout that “conspiracy theory” was… HuffPost. huffpost.com/entry/uv-light… ImageImage
ABC, NBC, and CBS touted UV light to fight COVID too. Alex Jones’ influence knows no bounds! ImageImageImage
