They don’t want us to look like a bunch of fools going on and on about how - insert person that disagrees with you - is being paid by the Russians. We look almost as dumb as Qanon when we go into this thing about how the Republican Party is controlled by the Russians.

Remember when Nance said the released Podesta emails were "already proving to be riddled with obvious forgeries" (they weren't).

Do not care for Ball AT ALL either. She is an opportunist and far too often anti Dem just for the sake of being anti Dem.

Between The Hill giving a platform to those fools on the left and John Solomon on the right, it would be best advised if pretty much all Democratic-friendly types just boycott that outlet. They are openly hostile to us Democrats and repeatedly put forth bad faith arguments and outright propaganda in some cases to attack us. Just find a better news outlet and ignore The Hill.

Kinda funny that after in real life, the recent storming of the US Capitol wouldnt call for extra security; Saagar himself questioned the security need.

But its hard to say that Russia didnt infiltrate government when Barr already lied about reports and the NRA was used as a Russian money laundering scheme.

The Hill is definitely something else. 🤔

Hi, I can't see this tweet, and I joined DU just to read this thread bc Ball irritates me. I did a search to find out more about her and that show and landed her. Thanks!

Or since she lost, she now reveals who she really is since she couldn't use the party to get elected.

Who are these two supposed to be? FOX in Dem clothing or something?

one of the main people still screaming "rigged" about the 2020 primaries, she constantly complains about the DNC and the Democratic so-called "establishment", and she portrayed Governor Whitmer as trying to make something "political" out of when RWNJs attempted to kidnap her.

She didn't even get a FOX gig for her anti-Dem treachery.

Media Bias factcheck: The Daily Caller

https://www.google.com/amp/s/mediabiasfactcheck.com/daily-caller/%3famp

"These media sources are moderately to strongly biased toward conservative causes through story selection and/or political affiliation.
They may utilize strong loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes), publish misleading reports and omit reporting of information that may damage conservative causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy.
"

"Saagar Enjeti is on the rise.
Once at The Daily Caller, he now fronts a news show for The Hill, Rising with Krystal and Saagar, co-hosted by the former MSNBC anchor Krystal Ball, with whom he also co-authored The Populist’s Guide to 2020.
He maintains a popular podcast, The Realignment, and has appeared on Joe Rogan’s much-more-popular podcast and Tucker Carlson’s highly rated Fox News show."
******

No need to guess what Saager & Ball's purpose is.
Don't expect to hear a true word promoting the Democratic Party from either of them. Ball despises the Democratic Party & it's leaders.
Both are straight up RW Talking pts & their purpose is to denigrate & every Democrat in our Party as well as every positive, forward accomplishment & goal we set.

You'll never hear them support the D Party.
That's not why they've been given airtime.

Turn the channel 🤬
