Which is what the article says. Maybe don’t start your critique of the article and the “rag” with an admission that you didn’t even read it.
My commentary wasn’t meant to be an insult to you, but it sounds like you’re taking it personally? My statement wasn’t an “admission,” it was a disclaimer.
The comments I made continue to apply, because that is the characterization in those paragraphs. The fact that the article gives more context doesn’t obviate the propaganda effect of the framing characterizations.
That said, the same issue appears in the full article:
The federal judges of eastern Virginia didn’t “question” the legitimacy of her role (4th ¶), they ruled it was illegitimate.
Alina Habba didn’t “resign” ((8th ¶) as both characterized here and in the WSJ’s linked prior reporting), she was likewise an invalid appointment.
The story also ends with a takeaway quote from Bondi making her look reasonable and sad about the departure, rather than leaving with the truth as found by the courts. That end quote has no value except to both-sides/normalize Bondi and the DOJ’s contemptuous and unconstitutional conduct.
“First let me insult you, but then I’d like to say yeah I didn’t read it but I was right anyway”
Vomiting your opinion without even reading the source is the reason some of us left other platforms, please stop.
Buddy, I mean you no injury as I said, but what exactly are you trying to do here?
I stated that the article was behind a paywall to disclaim, and it was to be honest. If you look at my comment history, you’ll see I’m not like a Reddit karma farmer, just posting superficial headline hot takes. I tried to access the article, saw enough to comment, you responded rudely, so I did what you didn’t - I reflected and thought, sure, better to see all of it, and tracked down the archive link (it’s easy to include that in your post, but sure, I can look it up).
But no, after reading the article, I stand by my comments for the reasons I already gave.
I don’t know who hurt you or why you’re so aggressive, but you’re being very belligerent, and you’re digging in deeper making even more personal attacks. I mean this genuinely: what’s your problem? Really don’t get it.
Dude, I posted an article. You said it was trash but also that you didn’t read it. I said I hate it when people already have an opinion before they read the article. Everything else is in your head
