Fox "News"

It is amazing what legal discovery can achieve!  I mean in the case of the lawsuit between Fox News and the voting machines companies, it is all there, so much so that the lawyers for Dominion, one of the voting machine company, has asked for summary judgment, without going to court because the evidence is so overwhelming.  Every single talking head from Fox knew that the election fraud was false, they knew it was BS and told, in private text and email, that every guest that mentioned "proof" of voter fraud was a flake, and in fact over the past two years, it has been shown that every single case of electoral fraud has been perpetrated by GOP supporters.

So Fox is almost certain to be found guilty and will have to pay the $1.6 billion, but it gets worse because there are two voting machine companies so the total bill for Fox may be in the range of $3.0 billion.  That's just money.  Now think of the ridicule, even if you don't care about the news (and most Americans don't) a good egg-in-your-face scandal is always appreciated.  It makes them look foolish and weak.

More importantly, what does it say about Newsmax and OANN who have been even more extreme than Fox in talking about voter fraud and other bits and pieces?  What even the most ardent pro-Trump supporter will understand is that the people they respected lied to them, sure they gave them a "safe space", but from now on, every time some blowhard mentioned something from Fox news the rebuttal will always be "they lie about everything, knowingly admit it"

So next time Uncle Fred talks about what he's heard on Fox the reply is always going to be, "hey they lie so much that they paid two companies $ 3 billion for their lies, I don't believe anything they say" end of discussion.  

BTW no one sued Newsmax or OANN because they are broke -- Comcast will probably now have an argument for reclassifying Fox from its cable service with these lawsuits -- "they are not a news channel, purely entertainment"

Finally, they've even found emails from Rupurt Murchoch stating that the role of Fox news in 2016 was to support the GOP...I mean how can you be "fair and balanced" when the CEO tells you that your job is to support the GOP against the democrats.

I have no idea how these cases will affect FOX's broadcasting of the 2024 elections or even the GOP.  Lachlan Murdoch's son has two choices (a) stay the course and hope no one notices, (b) re-invent the network.  If I were a betting man, I would guess he will go for "a" and hope that the great American electorate will forget these lawsuits -- as a concoction by the twisted left leaning courts.  That would be my bet.  After all, the GOP keeps on supporting George Santos...this is a man who has lied about EVERYTHING, and the GOP still supports him

The end of Tesla?

 it takes a special kind of idiot, to think that he can antagonize his entire customer base, and think that it will not impact his business. When Elon Musk went to work for Donald Trump, and created the doge department, he antagonized every liberal, and these people represent 90% of his client base.That’s not a brilliant move. Now Elon Musk is worth hundreds of billions of dollar, so he shouldn’t care a great deal, however, he needs to care because of several other issues. The cyber truck has been a disaster, most have had to be recalled because of defective glue, it’s not a truck, it’s not a car, it’s noisy, relatively uncomfortable, but great as a development platform. What Tesla has learned in making car manufacturing more seamless is truly amazing. The problem was that Elon Musk was so pissed with the Democrats, and with Joe Biden, in particular because of some slight, which were just plain stupid too. By the way, that he decided to support with hundreds of millions of dollar, ...

Donald Trump‘s bad bargain

 The entire of 2023 and 2024 when Donald Trump was running for the White House, his mantra was no war, that the Ukraine conflict would be resolved in a day, and that he would do everything not to involve America and war. How the world has changed! He finds himself facing three conflicts; Ukraine, still going on almost 5 months after he became president. Gaza, an unspeakable crime against humanity, is obviously going to go all the way to its bitter end. And finally, Israel’s attack against Iran. It’s important to note, that Benjamin Netanyahu first indicated at the United nation that the Iranian were 3 to 5 years away from having the nuclear bomb. He made that statement in 1995. Therefore, no one is surprised that he uses the same two lines every so often. It’s entirely possible, that 30 years after he first announced it, that Iran has finally developed the bomb. It’s also remarkable that Iran, local power has been destroyed, from Yemen, to Syria, via Lebanon and Gaza to small exten...

TACO again, but worst!

 Donald Trump got the rare earth metals that he had thrown away on April 2, liberation day as he called it. What did the Chinese get in exchange? The whole deal, is on the wrap right now. But let’s be clear. It’s the Chinese that have the upper hand.Some of the materials made by the Chinese, are simply unavailable anywhere else. suspicions are that the Chinese got the high-end chips that they lost under Biden. Tariffs will probably return to the level of April 1, and in the end Donald and his friends got nothing for it. It gets worse, Chinese exports to United States are down 40%. The Chinese have found new markets, I probably never gonna buy American grain again. Once again, Donald Trump proved he’s a great negotiator. He got absolutely nothing for his Showmanship. He told the world, that everyone would come and kiss his ass, instead they’re laughing At him. There’s no joke about Donald Trump, a 25 and inherited a huge fortune and proceeded to make it a small one. Bottom line, the...
