The democrats try to excuse bad behavior on all levels along the way and there really isn't a legit way to do that except by denying evidence and trying to redefine truth.
Your problem is you can't see that you can exchange the word Democrats for the word Republican and arrive at the same conclusion.

There's a reason people say that when people say, "What about Chicago?"
Chicago isn't even rated in the top 10 murders per capita. It's nothing more than a dog whistle. It's something the right, and that left wing media you claim to hate so much concentrate on when it's not near the top of murder rates per capita.
Nearly 100 people were shot, 17 fatally, Friday night through Monday night in Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s (D) Chicago.
ABC 7 reported 98 people were shot in the time-frame of “Friday at 6 p.m. to 11:59 p.m. on Monday,” and 17 of those shooting victims succumbed to their wounds.
The Chicago Sun-Times listed the number of fatalities at 19.
ABC 7 pointed out that 87 people were shot during that same period over the Independence holiday in 2020.
The violence over the long weekend follows a Thursday on which 32 people were shot. Thursday’s wounded included a one-month-old girl who was shot in the head.
The violence and death has surged to such levels that Chicago Police Superintendent David Brown plans to speak at a press conference and take questions Tuesday afternoon.
On July 5, 2021, Brown tweeted: “Our officers continue to work tirelessly to keep our city safe. As of today, Chicago Police Department has recovered over 6,100 guns: a 26% increase from the same period last year. I commend our officers for their continued hard work during these challenging times for law enforcement.”
The Sun-Times observed there were over 1,892 shootings in Chicago January 1, 2021, through June 28, 2021, a 12 percent increase over the same time frame last year.
Over 330 people were killed in Chicago during the first six months of 2021.
JMHO, gas got real low because a barrel of oil went to negative numbers and covid (the flu Trump stated was under control and would be gone in Spring of 2020) kept drivers in their homes- supply and demand. It HAD to go up.

What do you mean by "a barrel of oil went to negative numbers"?
Due to the complex nature of the legal casino called "commodities", it's kind of hard to wrap your mind around. Basically, because of the pandemic, glut of oil on the market and fear of what was to come, the commodities market experienced one of the strangest things in the history of trading. The expiring May contracts of West Texas Intermediate crude on the New York Mercantile Exchange traded, and closed, in negative territory. This happened on April 20th of 2020.
Commodities are heavily leveraged, so in basic English, uncertainties had people that were trying to unload their May contracts met with an attitude of "you'd have to pay me to take them".

CNN, MSNBC primetime shows ignore breaking news of ex-Sen. Barbara Boxer being attacked, robbed in California Liberal media continues to suppress news of violent crimes in America’s largest cities

Former California senator Barbara Boxer mugged in Oakland, crime spree plagues Bay Area
San Francisco resident and former mayoral candidate Richie Greenberg blasts area for being lax on crime, rips Los Angeles for UBI plan
Former California Sen. Barbara Boxer was attacked and robbed of her cell phone Monday in Oakland, but anyone who relies on CNN or MSNBC’s primetime lineups for news was left in the dark about the stunning attack.
The liberal media has been criticized recently for downplaying or ignoring a spike in violent crimes in America’s largest cities. Boxer being robbed appears to be the latest example, as CNN and MSNBC both ignored the breaking news during primetime as details unfolded, according to a Grabien Media search of transcripts.
MAINSTREAM MEDIA CONTINUES TO FAIL US CITIES AMID CRIME SURGE: 'THEY REFUSE TO CALL OUT THE LIBERAL MAYORS' Former Sen. Barbara Boxer said she was assaulted and robbed while in Oakland, Calif., on Monday, according to a Twitter post on her account.

Boxer, a Democrat from California, was in Oakland's Jack London Square neighborhood when someone pushed her in the back and took her phone, she tweeted in the late afternoon Monday.
"Tucker Carlson Tonight," "Hannity" and "The Ingraham Angle" all mentioned the breaking news that was ignored by CNN and MSNBC.
"Anderson Cooper 360," "Cuomo Prime Time," "Don Lemon Tonight," "All In with Chris Hayes," "The Rachel Maddow Show," "Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell" and "The 11th Hour with Brian Williams" all kept the breaking news from their viewers.
CNN and MSNBC did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
"The lack of national corporate media coverage of the spike in violent crimes does a disservice to people in cities who are the victims, and contributes to the downward spiral," Cornell Law School professor and media critic William A. Jacobson recently told Fox News. "That these cities almost entirely have progressive mayors suggests some of the lack of coverage is politically motivated."
In a statement, Boxer's office said she was "thankful that she was not seriously injured."
FORMER SEN. BARBARA BOXER ATTACKED, ROBBED IN CALIFORNIA
CNN’s "New Day" managed to cover the story on Tuesday morning.
Boxer, 80, served in the U.S. Senate from 1993 to 2017, when she was succeeded by Kamala Harris. Boxer also served for a decade in the House of Representatives.
The incident occurred in Oakland, where Democratic Mayor Libby Schaaf has held office since 2015.
"The news media are so leftist that they refuse to call out the liberal mayors of cities for spikes in violent crime," Media Research Center vice president Dan Gainor told Fox News.
The department's robbery section is investigating the incident. A $2,000 reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest.
They really have you trained so we'll you parrot everything they say without ever thinking for for yourself don't they? No wonder Fox's legal defense in court was they are entertainment only and viewers shouldn't regard "facts" they present as being truthful.
The more things change the more they stay the same.

I can't be everywhere like the 60s 'Chicken man' to witness every news event like you and Portland...and I'm not a member of 'twitter' to use as a news source.
Every one of you liberals on this board use and ad-lib the same talking points from CNN, the NY Times, and the thousands of leftwing websites available, and you accuse others of not "thinking for yourself"? pftt
I accuse you of spamming the boards with articles - without any input or contribution or thought ... and the title of the last article was clearly incorrect or twisting the coverage. I did a google search in 30 seconds and got many hits for CNN.
I didn't search for MSNBC - I can't tell you if they did or didn't cover the story and if they have some dastardly plot to not cover a particular news story. Frankly I don't care. I'm quite sure Faux and Breitbart and many other right wing outlets don't cover many stories themselves. It's been mentioned on these boards before. What I do know is that the article posted carried a sensationalistic headline that was bunk. That's what I commented on. Thanks.

If they had covered the story more they would be saying that they only cover when a liberal is a victim and ignores when it happens to republicans. At this point they're reaching for any silly BS they can come up with to try and create a story that isn't there.

Anyone, everyone and everything that has said anything in opposition to trump has been boycotted, called names or targeted. To try and pretend that Republicans aren't just as guilty of it can only mean someone has decided to only look for it in one direction.

Hiding from the truth isn't going to help you. You asked for proof then when given proof refuse to look at it. It's the best way to never find the truth and hold on to things that are not true.
Murica!

That dynamic bothers the hell out of me. "The information you provide is inconvenient to what my feelings are, so I won't read it."
I disagree with Super on a lot of things, obviously, but I gave his video with Alex Jones a chance.
I often disagree with - but wholeheartedly respect - Peen and I enjoyed reading his articles on Cuomo, Harris and other things.
I don't line up with the progressive ideals of OCD, but I enjoy reading the points contained in some of his articles.
I find FATE to be trollish at times, but I do like to trace the logic behind some of his trolling.
I don't always agree with everything people post, but I do like to see where people are coming from.
Admittedly, yes, some people have lost me when they talk about reptilian DNA in vaccines and whatnot, but it has become more and more apparent today that the fear of being wrong is much stronger than the will to find out the truth.
I still find out that I'm wrong about things day after day...
...just ask my wife.

Well said. It's a ongoing, conscious effort (for me at least), to look into some links that I know I'm going to disagree with. As you said, it's important to do so.
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.
I guess the only part that really bothers me is that the requests to boycott all of these companies came straight from trump's own mouth. Yet they still claim the other party is the only one guilty of cancel culture.
In part I actually do agree with him. The democrats are guilty of trying to silence people with opposing views. They use boycotts and some media outlets to accomplish that.
The difference we have is that the Republicans are no less guilty of the exact same thing. Both are wrong but if you lack the ability to look at it and see it for what it is, then you are simply refusing to open your eyes to reality.
And for republicans who now base so much on their feelings and beliefs rather than facts to call the other side snowflakes? What an obvious act of hypocrisy. Once again both sides are guilty of the same thing but refuse to see their own side as being just as guilty.

Both are guilty, but one is the hypocrite. Phenomenal point.

Typical,maybe you would be happier in that paradise Cuba?
Don't be ridiculous. We on the left and center would probably prefer the cuban commies to the maga fascists, but were are not about to abandon OUR America.
Your feelings and opinions do not add up to facts.
I'm getting older and keep thinking to myself, "One day the picture of the Congressional Leaders will have different people in it that it did 30 years ago."
Hopefully in my lifetime.
We don't have to agree with each other, to respect each others opinion.
Fox News lawyer tells judge that Tucker Carlson's audience doesn't expect him to report the facts "It's not the front page of the New York Times," a network attorney says in court. "It's 'Tucker Carlson Tonight'"
Interesting that you mock the NYT - but Fox lawyers clearly referenced them as a gold standard of journalism compared to Faux News. And lets not forget OAN had to pay MSNBC's legal fees ... so whatever spin you want to try, the court already decided.

After graduation, Elder joined the Cleveland law firm Squire, Sanders & Dempsey*. In 1980, he founded Laurence A. Elder and Associates, a legal executive search firm. Elder stepped down from operating Elder and Associates around 1987 but continued to own the firm until 1995.
After a successful audition, Elder began co-hosting Fabric, a topic-oriented television show produced by Dennis Goulden that aired on Cleveland's PBS member station WVIZ in 1988.[6][5][7]
In the early 1990s, the show's name was retitled The Larry Elder Show and moved to WOIO (then-affilated with Fox), then later to cable TV. Goulden and Elder won the Ohio Cable Television Association's "Best Program Series Award" in 1992 for their work on the show,[8] which lasted until Elder moved back to Los Angeles in 1994.
*Now: Squire, Patton, Boggs, LLC.
I had no idea he was a black guy, unbeknownst to him, manipulated for white supremacy all this time.
Today! The establishment media, pushing the narrative,
All repbulicans are voting against the right to vote bill. Federal right to vote bill.
In Reality! It is, All republicans voting against the Federal Right To Cheat in Voting if you are a democrat bill.
The Democrats, digging in on a bill to secure the ways they cheat, and manufacture falsehoods to be counted, Federally! Nationalizing, so that they can secure there will not be an accurate free and fair trusted election in the USA anytime going forward.
