The Press and TV media unfair to Pelosi

[Cetacea]

I have not seen one report that Nancy said the following words after Mueller testified: "The stronger our case is, the worse the senate will look for just letting the president off the hook."

I have not seen one pundit or journalist refer to this quote. That doesn't sound like someone who is only approaching impeachment from a purely political standpoint, or someone who will only impeach if she knows the senate will convict.

Furthermore, virtually all of the headlines screamed that Mueller failed to move the needle on impeachment not even twenty-four hours after Mueller testified. How could anyone possibly know that with certainty? Yet we all react to it as if it is the truth...

Please watch the presser that followed Mueller's testimony.

1. Speaker Pelosi just laid out the roadmap to impeachment.

'“The stronger our case is,” Speaker Pelosi said, explaining why the House needs more evidence through ongoing court cases before entertaining a resolution for an impeachment inquiry, “the worse the Senate will look for letting the President off the hook.” Note, that she didn’t say “may look” or “could look,” but “will look.” . . .

But if it comes to a point where the ‘cone of silence’ and the obstruction of justice and the cover-up in the White House prevents us from getting that information, that will not prevent us from going forward.”'

3. Corporate media is just following orders from their corporate masters . . .

Majority of the American people know shithole has not been exonerated nor cleared from the crimes.

No point trying to foster unity anymore. Not here, not anywhere.

5. Pelosi knows the MEdia is ready to give a huge victory to Trump like they did yesterday

when republican enablers refuse to remove trump.

she knows democrats need to be ready to deal with all of this shit.

the bigger problem is the media .

8. The media has fucked us over again!

They gave us the Racist Rapist and they will get him reelected...all for the almigjty dollar/ratings. The country has been for sale and we are now a bankrupted, souless country.

9. And it dovetails nicely with Putin's plan

He long ago said that the best way to destroy America is from within. And that is probably why he helped Trump, a master of division.
And the internet is the perfect medium. Russia is way ahead of us when it comes to cyber/info warfare.

11. It is sad to see how it used to be

Social media changed the internet profoundly. I think we seem to take the bait because internet culture now is always so much more immediately reactive, whereas the old internet with its message boards and blogs allowed for slower discussion and reflection. The switch to DU2 probably didn't help, but this was inevitable.

12. True.

Thank you.

15. Aren't we on DU3 now? DU2 came on line in 2003 a year before I joined.

13. Gotta criticize the Dems, especially women

Rs always get a pass.

14. Now that Impeachment has begun we will become unified again.
