You know that when they so freely talk qbout left vs. right, it's not really a thing, or it's not really important. What they never even dare to mention is 'class war' and that's what they are really afraid of.

Reminds me of this line from Colbert Report...It feels "truthy".
One study published by the libertarian Cato Institute found that since 2020, right-wingers have accounted for over half of terror-related deaths in the United States, with left-wingers at 22 percent. Another study from the Public Religion Research Institute found that those who were more opposed to Trump were more likely to oppose political violence as well.
that a funny way for him to say “i’m in the epstein files too, that’s why trump hired me”.
Lies.
Release the Trump/Epstein files
Ok where are those statistics & I'm sure it'll not be peer-reviewed
The stats say the opposite
He makes manifest the saying 'lies damn lies and statistics'
It's crazy how so many of our nations leaders can just go up there and tell bold face blatant lies and there's absolutely no consequences.
Like, they don't even pretend to care about being honest. They've long since realized that there's no repercussions for lying (not any real ones at least). So now, they just spew them endlessly, we live in a post-truth world.
Facts don't matter anymore, integrity is liability.
liar liar pants on fire
We have to look at the statistical significance of the mean, median, mode and couch fucking in order to get closer to the truth.
The word "fact" hasn't meant a damn thing for over a decade.
It's a statistical fact that JD Vance is a lying piece of shit.
Deaths from far right terrorism outnumbers far left 6:1, from the government's own reports over the last 30 years. But that was before the Ministry of Propaganda decided to take it down right after the death of Mr. Acceptable Losses.
Poof, gone today: https://nij.ojp.gov/topics/articles/what-nij-research-tells-us-about-domestic-terrorism
There's also sexual violence. Church is the highest perp.
"Statistical fact" - as someone forced to teach statistics, whenever a student writes this phrase they lose marks. Any statistical statement is an implication of evidence, not a statement of fact.
Statistics adds confidence intervals to data. You never get to 100% confidence = fact.
Amen.
It's a statistical fact that 99% of what Couchfucker the First says is a lie. The 1% is reserved exclusively for "Wrong clock right once every full turn" type stuff.
Everytime I hear this mofo speak, all he does is spew lies.
What do you expect from a fake hillbilly?
Hillbillies are decent people, they dont fuck couches
Haha! As you realize that the one who killed your own supporter was a Christian loving GOP who loved Trump, but hated Kirk and all his hate so guess what, karma comes to get ya and it did right in the neck!
I thought it was a groyper who thought there wasn't enough hate? Or is there new information?
He knows, but MAGA needs an excuse to do what they will do next according to their plans (Project 25). They are seizing on Kirk's murder like vultures to justify to the general public the attacks, abuse, and imprisonment they will impose on political opponents.
Alternative facts
"How many is that exactly JD?"
"WHATEVER MAKES SENSE"
Snopes.com 'bout to write the longest article in their publication's history.
They’re already on top of it.

Tap for spoiler
Did Charlie Kirk really say that?

Show us those statistics then, couch fucker.
It's a statistical fact that JD Vance is a couch fucker.
This one has the benefit of being true.
If you count inanimate objects as victims maybe.
About that.
No wonder you censored the government website, Vance. We can’t have facts getting in the way of your outright lies and propaganda.
It's a "statistical fact" that "JD" "Vance" can chortle my balls.
Yeah…… name two fucking liberal shooters Il fucking wait
FAKE NEWS. SAD.
If you omit the cherrypicking step prior to running the stats, that may be true.
And of course stats are inferences, never facts.
Its a statistical fact JD Vance eats ChapStick.
Vance could never be as cool as Sen. Armstrong.
Fuck he isn't even cool enough for the Senate we actually have now.
Just making shit up? Not even trying to tie anything to reality. Oh, JD loves Velour couch fabric. People are saying.
Fact check: The Center for Strategic and International Studies found that right-wing extremists were responsible for approximately 67 percent of extremist-related terrorist plots and attacks between 2015 and 2020.
I can't think of any recent cases besides the guy that shot Steve Scalise. Do they have a list of cases they're going off, because 67% seems low.
They do, but they're almost all "eco-terrorism" related, which includes property damage as "violent". So basically, every time an environmentalist sabotages logging or mining equipment, it goes on the same list as folks that murder politicians, commit mass shootings, or blow up government buildings.
He was told there wouldn't be any fact-checking
Every right wing accusation in a confession.
White, male, christian. This is who you stay away from. These have always been the criminals.
