With entrenched government bureaucrats ready to go to bat for Barry, legally or illegally, it's a Heculean task to bring the light of day to cockroaches.

Like the IRS targeting conservative groups kind of delusional?
They targeted liberal groups as well but that doesn’t fit the narrative.
At the same rate?
Look it up. The difference probably isn’t as big as you think it is.

Sounds like you already have. So what is the difference?

Wow you really dug deep there.
According to the numbers from two separate Treasury IG reports the number of conservative groups audited by the IRS was 115 and the number of liberal groups was 110.

See Cheezy, that’d how you get someone to google stuff for you. Just pull a number out of thin air. Although I hoped for more ire and burst veins.

The real trick is to ask them for a link and when they provide one...ridicule it for being biased and untrustworthy.

Its hilarious

“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

To paraphrase AH from another thread the truth has a liberal bias.

This phenomenon has been referred to as the Internet Bullshit Asymmetry Principle. The amount of time required to refute bullshit on the internet is an order of magnitude higher than the time required to spread it.

A similar concept, the "mountain of shit theory", was formulated by the Italian blogger Uriel Fanelli in 2010, roughly stating the same sentence

Though it's kinda useless to be debating something that was obviously invented by their Orange Golfing Messiah in order to distract his worshipers from the actual horrible stench of his "leadership."

Yup, they love wasting your time. Antknot wanted me to comment on a statement by Congressman Schiff. But could not provide the statement. :roll:
