ECP NetHappenings The Gish Gallop and Grab Him By The Felonies
LONG READ BIT LOTS OF GOOD INFO BELOW AND YOU SHOULD SHARE THIS BLOG WITH YOUR FRIENDS / SISTERS
Biden’s family privately criticizes top advisers and pushes for their ouster at Camp David meeting
They also urged the president to stay in the race. The blame was cast widely on staffers, including: Anita Dunn, the senior adviser who frequently has the president’s ear; her husband, Bob Bauer, the president’s attorney who played Trump in rehearsals at Camp David; and Ron Klain, the former chief of staff who ran point on the debate prep and previous cycles’ sessions.
Donald Trump is a convicted felon, serial liar, adjudicated rapist, and tried to overthrow the United States Government. Share this blog if you think the media needs to stop treating Trump like a normal candidate! There’s no message you’re going to get from the media that’s useful to Democracy.
‘Big decision’: Trump again begs for immunity hours before Supreme Court’s answer rolls in.
I don’t expect these justices to do the right thing tomorrow.
Should the Trump/McConnell SCOTUS rule that Trump is immune from prosecution doesn’t that mean Joe Biden is too?
Wouldn’t that mean Biden could end this madness by bringing in Seal Team 6 to clear the beach head?
54% of registered voters say Donald Trump should not be running for president, according to a new CBS-YouGov poll.

Allan Lichtman, who has correctly predicted every election, gives the strongest reasons why Democrats must stand with Biden. Lichtman also demolished Donald Trump for lying on every question in the debate.
Brilliant audio debate essay by American historian Heather Cox Richardson
The Gish Gallop
Heather Richardson (@HC_Richardson).
This is so perfectly laid out.
“This was not a debate.
It was Trump using a technique that actually has a formal name, the Gish gallop, although I suspect he comes by it naturally. It’s a rhetorical technique in which someone throws out a fast string of lies, non-sequiturs, and specious arguments, so many that it is impossible to fact-check or rebut them in the amount of time it took to say them. Trying to figure out how to respond makes the opponent look confused, because they don’t know where to start grappling with the flood that has just hit them.
It is a form of gaslighting, and it is especially effective on someone with a stutter, as Biden has. It is similar to what Trump did to Biden during a debate in 2020. In that case, though, the lack of muting on the mics left Biden simply saying: “Will you shut up, man?” a comment that resonated with the audience. Giving Biden the enforced space to answer by killing the mic of the person not speaking tonight actually made the technique more effective.”

LIVE: Trump BS gets CUT THROUGH by Forensic Expert
The New York Times wants Biden gone — but they seem OK with a convicted felon
Lies, confusion and garbage – the presidential debate was everything we feared.
– What kind of a shithole party runs a traitor, rapist and convicted felon for President?
The media, particularly CBS sank LBJ in 1968.
The media did it again in 1980 to Jimmy Carter
The media sank Hillary Clinton in 2016.
They are at it again in 2024 with President Biden.
(BTW, the first three screw jobs produced three of the worst Presidents in US History).

The Supreme Court yesterday:
If you think the Supreme Court is out of control now, imagine if Trump appoints two, three, or four more justices.
By overturning Chevron deference, the justices have taken power away from agencies regulating everything from health care to pollution.
