No, It’s Not ‘Fair-Minded’ To Defend ‘Journalists’ Who Use Twitter To Dox Their Political Enemies

Conservative criticisms of Musk's Twitter suspensions paint a clear picture of how leftists consistently win major battles in the culture war.

Self-described 'journalist' Aaron Rupar claims that Satan would receive 'at least 45 percent of the vote' if he ran as a GOP candidate in a red state



Self-described "journalist" Aaron Rupar tweeted on Tuesday that the devil could seek office as a GOP candidate in a red state and secure 45% of the vote at a minimum.

Rupar wrote, "the sad reality is that Satan himself could run as a Republican in a red state and be guaranteed to get at least 45 percent of the vote."

Chris Tomlinson of Breibart fired back in response to Rupar's post, tweeting, "If Satan ran he'd get all the Democrat votes."

\u201cIf Satan ran he'd get all the Democrat votes.\u201d

Five Times August, which is the name of singer/songwriter Brad Skistimas' solo act, responded to Rupar by writing, "The sad reality is that Satan himself is already running the country and people like you are too blind to see it."

Rupar replied, "get a grip."

Leftists openly promote and even celebrate abortion and LGBTQ ideology.

Some Democrats described it as a "dark day" for the nation earlier this year when the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade and returned to states the authority to determine how to handle the issue of abortion and whether to ban the practice.

Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said in a tweet on Monday that she "will fight like hell to defend access to abortion in Michigan."

Last week, the left-wing Women's March movement noted that it is not only pro-choice, but also "proudly, unapologetically pro-abortion."

\u201cWe're not just pro-choice.\n\nWe are proudly, unapologetically pro-abortion.\n\nRT if you agree.\u201d

Some Democrats have expressed support for Drag Queen Story Hour, which typically involves cross dressers reading books to children.

"Drag storytellers, and the libraries and schools that support them, are advancing a love of diversity, personal expression, and literacy that is core to what our city embraces," Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams said in a statement in June.

"I had the honor of assisting with a Drag Queen Story Hour in New York in April," Democratic Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney of New York tweeted in June.

Audio debunks viral claim 'falsely smearing' Neil Gorsuch over transcription error



Political commentators, reporters, and at least one media organization distributed clear misinformation about Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch on Friday.

The misinformation circulated on the same day the Supreme Court heard oral arguments for President Joe Biden's constitutionally questionable vaccine mandate. But audio of Gorsuch from the hearing clarified that he did not, in fact, say what was claimed.

What happened?

Elie Mystal, a far-left political commentator who routinely appears on MSNBC, claimed that Gorsuch alleged during oral arguments that the seasonal flu kills hundreds of thousands of people each year.

"NO IT DOES NOT. STOP GETTING YOUR MEDICAL STATS FROM FOX NEWS," Mystal blasted, adding links to information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention about the seasonal flu.

Gorsuch: "the flu kills hundreds of thousands of people every year"\n\nNO IT DOES NOT. STOP GETTING YOUR MEDICAL STATS FROM FOX NEWS.

"I know Gorsuch, nor any conservative, nor any 'omg I'm bored and want to go to the movies' person, will APOLOGIZE for their consistent Covid misinformation, but Covid is ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE more deadly then the GOD***N FLU," Mystal added.

Mystal's tweet, which generated more than 10,000 "retweets" and 65,000 "likes," was amplified by far-left journalist Aaron Rupar.

"The flu kills about 30,000 Americans each year. I'm kinda surprised Gorsuch would broadcast his ignorance like this. I looked this up with help from Google in about 10 seconds," Rupar said while quoting Mystal's tweet.

Newsweek also circulated the claim. "Justice Neil Gorsuch Slammed After He Suggests Flu Kills 'Hundreds of Thousands' Each Year," a headline at the news outlet read.

But what is the truth?

Gorsuch did not say the seasonal flu kills "hundreds of thousands" of people each year. Audio from the oral arguments makes this year.

In fact, the audio demonstrates that Gorsuch made a clear pause between saying "hundreds" and "thousands," and he did not say "of" in between each number.

"Flu kills, I believe, hundreds, thousands of people every year," Gorsuch said.

In posting the audio of Gorsuch, commentator Phil Kerpen said, "Hey genises. You are falsely smearing Justice Gorsuch for a TRANSCRIPTION ERROR. ... Correct and retract your false stories."

Hey geniuses. You are falsely smearing Justice Gorsuch for a TRANSCRIPTION ERROR.\n\nListen carefully: "Flu kills, I believe, hundreds, thousands of people every year."\n\nCorrect and retract your false stories.\n\nAt 1:50:00 https://www.c-span.org/video/?516920-1/justices-hear-case-vaccine-test-mandate\u00a0\u2026pic.twitter.com/WfD21LrLWH

However, the official Supreme Court transcript recorded Gorsuch as saying "hundreds of thousands." Transcripts, though, are not always correct, and are often edited to correct the record.
