      Being mad is like the #1 defining Republican characteristic.

      I mean this sincerely, MAGAS…

      Facts don’t care about your feelings.

      He lied all day, CBS couldn’t let that one slide, as it hurts Haitian human beings and the city of Springfield with bomb threats.

      Of course they are. 

      Being fact checked is like kryptonite for conservatives. 

      They operate in their own crazy little world of echo chambers where all the deluded stuff they were told about how their in group is the best and the others are scary and bad is considered gospel, and anybody saying anything to the contrary is a deep state plant out to get them. 

      Fact checking the insanity in real time is like someone slapping them across the face and forcing them to deal with a small dose of reality, even if it’s just for a few minutes, and it’s fucking horrible for them. I’d be mad too if I spent most of life brainwashing myself on purpose and then someone came along and questioned the brainwashing.

      It wasn’t even a fact check – they just made sure everyone at home understood the legal status of the immigrants both candidates were referring to.

      So the gop hates facts, truth, evidence, and an orderly society.
      Which means the gop loves chaos, lies, racism, hatred, and destruction.
      Makes sense then, that the gop choose trump to spearhead their P2025 plan to destroy America.

      “Jesus! If you aren’t gonna let us lie, What’s Next? You won’t let us rig elections? Where does it end?!?!?!?”

      I knew that, although it was warranted, that the Right would make a big deal out of it to make up for the fact that Vance was lying so much.

      I had one arguing with me last night that they aren’t legal, and when they got hit with proof they were they started ranting like they were about to have a stroke and insulting everybody they could see.

      The guy started going off about “Kamala’s App” that grants people immediate residency status.

      These folks are crazy.

      What does it say about a political party that easily verifiable facts are so threatening and offensive to them?

    14. Squirrel_Chucks on

      Megyn Kelly was more concise: “F you CBS – how DARE YOU,” she wrote on X.

      Says the woman fired from NBC for saying blackface was OK.

      I don’t think she should be listened to when it comes to appropriate on air conduct.

      Here are some things Kelly said when hosting a 2015 debate of Republican primary hopefuls. I think all of these were directed at Trump?

      >“Would you really let a mother die rather than have an abortion?”

      >”When did you actually become a Republican?”

      >“You’ve called women you don’t like fat pigs, dogs, slobs and disgusting animals…”

      Trump’s reaction was later to suggest Kelly was getting period blood all over the place.

      Compared to this the CBS mods were not outrageous at all, but the goals are on wheels for Kelly and her ilk, so…

    15. ranchoparksteve on

      I see it as CBS not wanting the debate to be a platform for hate speech. If Vance can’t avoid defamatory propaganda then that’s not CBS’s problem.

    17. LandSharkUSRT on

      Fascism is really struggling with the internet and reality in general.

    18. Dogzirra on

      Vance admitted on interview that the story was “created” to focus attention on immigration, and continues to push the same lies.

      Springfield is under attack with fake bomb threats, personal threats, and threats of schools causing closings

      This, because of deliberate, calculated stories.

      As a former teacher, seeing how children are affected, only have words that would get me banned.

      Vance did not win this debate. He instead, motivated a GOTV against everything MAGA.

    19. digitaldisease on

      Was I hallucinating when he kind of ranted about misinformation being censored was a bad thing?

    21. deJuice_sc on

      Q: Trump lost in 2020, yes or no?
      A: I grew up very poor and my mama was an addict, in school I knew many girls that were having sex. After enlisting in the Marine Corps I was told to be a Public Affairs specialist and then I became a US Senator and called Trump a Nazi.

    22. Rude_Tie4674 on

      I wouldn’t ever vote for a candidate who refused to be fact checked.

    23. MinimumApricot365 on

      He admitted he was lying IMMEDIATELY after being fact checked. But it’s the fact check that is the issue?

    24. Meb2x on

      Republicans have become so extreme that they’re now attacking facts. They literally think that fact-checking is liberal bias. Vance literally tried to defend misinformation last night instead of admitting that Trump lost the 2020 election. We can’t allow people that hate facts to lead this country

    25. b1llypilgrim on

      If they allowed that lie to be amplified by their network then they would have exposed themselves to a lawsuit. They aren’t that stupid.

    26. PecanPizzaPie on

      Let’s not forget this little nugget from Vance at the debate.

      *”And it’s Kamala Harris saying that rather than debate and persuade her fellow Americans, she’d like to censor people who engage in misinformation. I think that is a much bigger threat to democracy than anything that we’ve seen in this country in the last four years, in the last 40 years.”*

      So he is saying that a big threat to democracy is stopping people from spreading bullshit.

    27. Etzell on

      JD Vance and Republicans are significantly more upset about their lies being called out than they are about people making bomb threats at schools and government buildings in JD Vance’s own state.

    30. stonge1302 on

      Wallowing in lies is easier than to recognize how crazy racist you are, I guess.

    32. scissor415 on

      Doubt we’ll ever see a republican participate in a presidential or vice presidential debate again. They can’t risk the MAGA cult having their collective cognitive dissonance compromised by basic fact checks.

    33. Significant-Dog-8166 on

      MAGA’s are very sensitive about people challenging their lies. They just melt like snowflakes. Weak people, no ideals, no morality, just the endless pursuit of dishonesty for partisan power over their cultural enemies.

    34. Sure_Quality5354 on

      The funny thing about facts is that they are ideologically neutral. Any political party is capable of telling lies. So if the facts are not on your side, that is not a signal of “political bias”, its a sign that you are wrong
