Let us stop being Chicken Littles.

Let us also stop wondering what “deals” McCarthy made to gain the Speakership. Speculation is not fact, and gets one nowhere.

And for heaven’s sake, ignore any comment from M.Bunge, whose basic motive is destructive, as if he were a member of Antifa.

And much more fit than Pelosi.

Not that any of that is a high bar.

Regularly. (not that anyone has been expecting otherwise)….
“Washington Post issues correction after activist Rufo slams paper’s ‘inaccuracies and flat-out lies’;
“The D.C.-based paper had to issue a clarification last year on another piece that targeted Rufo’s work fighting Critical Race Theory.”—
https://justthenews.com/accountability/media/washington-post-issues-correction-after-chris-rufo-slams-papers-inaccuracies

But really now, why should they stop??
In fact, they’ve been competing with the NYT for some time now to see who can publish the biggest and most fantabulous whoppers.
(It’s been neck and neck for years.)
