    There is seriously dark stuff going on in the background in America !

    What-ever about Fauci ~ Having to pardon the members of the Jan 6th Committee is another level ~ Why would they have to be pardoned ? !

And Trump is going to take action against those who tried to hold him accountable? They did try to hold him accountable and found nothing, and then the evidence (apparently exonerating him) went missing. And the "chief" J6 commissioner Liz Cheney could very well have been going to jail for her role in all of it. But Joey put paid to that didn't he.

      So it's ok to try to find Trump accountable, but not Fauci?

      Its appears like "go ahead and get Trump and if you don't succeed sure I'll pardon you anyway."

      But keep on tuning into the BBC that bastion of truth and honesty. It probably explains why yore relying on my posting history rather than knowing the story yourself?
      Who do you blame for the 1.2 million deaths in the US during COVID - the president who wanted to know if injecting bleach would cure the disease, or his chief medial advisor who made recommendations to save lives?

          The BBC is one of the most renowned journalistic sites in the world. Your contribution, let's not forget, has been a YouTube video, which had already been removed, of someone who specialises in outrage and has a penchant for hysteria.

          I think I know which source I'd read more into, thanks.

            Really? I'd like to see some examples of him admitting his stuff was rubbish.

              Well, why don't we ask Joe himself? On the debate stage prior to the 2020 election, Joe told the world that anyone (meaning Trump) who allowed even one person to die of Covid (at the time there were 220K deaths) did not deserve to be president. Yet Joe took the reins thereafter and the better part of another million people died. So who exactly do we blame again? And did Joe (the upstanding man of his word that we all know him to be) step down, like he said Trump should have?

              And why on earth (which is the point of the original discussion) does Mr Fauci need a pardon? Again, did he do something wrong? Joe sure doesn't want anyone to know what Fauci did? Doesn't the world have a right to know? But Joe also didn't want anyone to know about Hunter's antics did he, and he stood on the same debate stage that night and told the world that his son did nothing wrong. And then went ahead and gave him a pardon too. Forgive me for feeling that old Joe isn't exactly above board about his actions and the actions of those around him.

                The BBC WAS one of the most renowned journalistic sites in the world (with a major emphasis on "was"). But that was many years ago now.

                  And what do you base that on exactly?

                  The BBC is listened to worldwide for a reason.

                  Mark Levin...isn't.

                      Why indeed? I tend to think that pardons are reserved for people who have done wrong.

                        You apparently didn't know there was evidence (once in the hands of the J6 commission) which went missing? And the BBC is listened to worldwide. You're right, they do have a worldwide audience - but they choose what to report and what not to. Like I said, they once were very reputable, but not anymore.

                          Do you believe the media tells all of the truth all of the time?

                            Can you elaborate on that?

                            You're not very good at elucidating on your points beyond the most basic of Trump-like rebuffs, are you?

                            What sort of bull**** question is that?

                            I certainly believe some media outlets are more equal than others. BBC >>>> Mark Levin for example.

                              He is unashamedly Democrat but does a great job of pointing out the flaws with all sides of the argument. He is a hawk for Israel though. Anyway, for someone who doesnt mind acknowledging that there is fault for sh!tty American politics all over the place, id recommend the stand-up. Its a good laugh.

                                My basic stance on the media, here in America anyways, is as follows:

                                About 11 - 12 weeks ago the media was telling Americans that Trump is Hitler.
                                Yet since that time, many of the leading lights on the Democratic side have met with and shook hands with him.
                                And the American people are supposed to take the media seriously?

                                As I write I am watching Mark Zuckerberg at Trump's inauguration. He, Bezos and the CEO of Google have all backed Trump in recent days.
                                But this is the guy who is compared to Hitler? So hopefully you can see that the media is far more propaganda than truth these days, and indeed has been for a long time.
                                Most Americans have this opinion - you'll just have to trust me on that one.
                                And I could go all the way back to Russia Collusion which held America to ransom for the bulk of Trump's first term. Crap of the highest order it was.
                                And then there was the Hunter laptop which the media played a big part in suppressing.........there are many many examples of media lies and bias in America.
                                And none of them, to my knowledge, have ever come out after the fact and apologized for getting their stories wrong. And their mistakes always seem to benefit the Democrats, never the other way around.

                                Ultimately I would much prefer if (in the words of Rodney King) we could all just get along and turn over a new leaf for the New Year.
                                Maybe that is wishful thinking, but hopefully not.
