Well, @catfish1957, if you regard me as part of the "Super Trump faction" you'll find my few interactions with LegalAmerican confrontational rather than agreeable. BTW, LegalAmerican hasn't shown his/her nose here for about a month, and before that was only browse-by posting every week or so.

My problems with LA amounted to style, which to me just isn't important (I'm a Trump supporter - substance over style).

My problems with CD are related to content. Much more relevant and consequential.

With Follow-Up Report, NYT Subtly Undercuts Key Aspects Of Its Russia-Taliban Bounty Scoops

    The New York Times published a report Monday that subtly undercut aspects of its reporting last week regarding intelligence indicating that a Russian spy unit paid the Taliban to attack American troops.
    The newspaper reported on Friday that the shocking intelligence had been briefed to President Trump in March. The story suggested with little equivocation that U.S. officials believed the intelligence.
    But on Monday, the Times reported only that the intelligence was included in a Feb. 27 Presidential Daily Brief commissioned for Trump. The paper also included more detailed reporting about disagreement in the intelligence community about the accuracy of the Russia-Taliban intelligence.

While her counterpart is here every day, finding a way to cast every story as a bad move by a Bad Orange Man.  Even threads where the President isn't a part of the story.

I'm no shrink... but.... I can recognize an obsessive compulsive disorder, coupled with a cognitive dissonance condition re: that "Orange Man Bad" when I see it.    :whistle:

Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

So... no retraction... but a subtle (sneaky) backing away and crawfishing (chicken-S) acknowledgement that they could have been wrong.   SSDD, IOW.

Yes, we need varied views.  What we do NOT need is to be browbeaten by leftist ANY propaganda.

Yeah, I hadn't noticed that LA is been that long ago.  Maybe it just seems like yesterday.   OTOH, a recently naturalized citizen who questions my loyalty as an American and calling me a liberal???   Haven't seen that tactic from CD.

  If 45 says he was never told, then dadgummit, that's good enough for me [slaps knee].

Whether "Trump was told" or not is far afield right now, because if it was one of the thousands of BS leads, it would not be expected to be in the reports.  To my pointy head, the bigger problem is how it got leaked?

Why it was leaked goes more to the core of the problem polluting the administration, partisan democrat subversion.

Intellectual honesty is intellectual honesty.   Propaganda is propaganda.   Truth is truth.

Yet we could likely find various views for who killed JFK.

Oswald, Cubans, Soviets, Mafia?

Did the US know with certainty the Japs would attack Pearl Harbor that day?

Did Nixon explicitly order/approve of the Watergate break-in?

It is usually pretty darn difficult to get agreement on "the truth"


Did Obama and or Biden explicitly order/approve Spy gate? (Jan 5, 2017 meeting)

Exactly. I thought intel briefings were classified.
