Joe Biden is a racist is a top 3 trending hash tag today.

Other than that and the other top 5 hash tag(you ain't black) yea Twitter is full of people who don't care about this.

I'm pretty sure with everyone calling him a racist I'm sure he is aware of that.

She questioned their journalistic integrity today regarding the Obama administration's unmasking and unlawful leak to the press. She said you all would be circling the White House asking questions to me and the rest of her staff. She said they have an assignment this weekend, to find answers the 5 questions she posed and then walked off
You are welcome. I thoroughly enjoy anyone that can articulate the way she does while also being dominant in the way they get their point across without some of the antics we see from most people.
I guess having to remember all that propaganda homework for the press corps she forgot about how checks have routing and account numbers on them.... :lol:

Jemelle Hill is now trending on Twitter and getting absolutely crushed by black folks on Twitter because she defended the Biden comments.

But tell us more about how black people on Twitter don't care about this.

A few things...

#1 - If I remember correctly, the OAN reporter was initially booted because she didn't social distance properly (which other members out of the camera view were also doing). Then she was railroaded by a liberal heavy vote to keep her out after she came back a day or 2 later.

#2 - George basically hit on it... OAN is trash to a Dem like CNN is trash to a Rep. While obviously slanted, what I haven't seen from OAN is blatant disinformation, creating their own stories with fake BS and assloads of retractions in footnotes and embedded below tweets. I rarely see anything they post, but most stuff I've come across can be vetted by another news source. Quite the opposite with CNN, MSNBC and Fox.

#3 - As for the unmasking stuff... there's 3 ways someone can be unmasked. None of those 3 ways occurred, which has been confirmed, which is why the news broke that he was never masked to begin with. There is only 1 way that Flynn would not have been masked... only 1 person had that power.

#4 -The other fact no one has been talking about, at least yet... is how they tied Flynn to Zelinski. The FBI was involved in that part of it through joint work with domestic offices and IOD. All they had to do was wait for Flynn to be out of the country.

If Trump is re-elected this fall, do you really think that he's not going to seek vengeance with Comey, anyone involved in the Mueller investigation and the impeachment process? He doesn't have to worry about re-election again at that point... term 2 may make term 1 look like tea and crumpets.

Completely agree with the second term, and I believe the Dems fear this scenario

But her fiestyness is charming.

I'm sure there are bots for the other side too but it's just more evidence that Twitter along with most social media is not representative of real people.

1.) Yes, both sides (and neutral) have them.
2.) This is just a tiny reason why Twitter isn't representative. The major reason is that only a small % of the population actually tweet. Twitter often represents the 'vocal minority' of either side of an issue. The growing problem is that the 'vocal minority' is gaining significant influence, pushing the divide. So where it is today, isn't likely where it will be in the future, unless something changes.
3.) There's a really simple solution... verify everyone. No anonymous accounts. We'll find out real fast who believes in what they say, who is a troll and who is a bot. But of course, the dirty little secret is that the heads of these social media enterprises will hide behind bullshit excuses, because they really want the conflict that keeps their operations in the spotlight. Gotta get clicks!
