Frequent Fox News guest tells Laura Ingraham "we are in a civil war;" suggests everyone buy guns to prepare for "total war"
So the suggestion that there's ever going to be civil discourse in this country for the foreseeable future in this country is over. It's not going to be. It's going to be total war.

JOE DIGENOVA (GUEST): We are in a civil war in this country. There's two standards of justice, one for Democrats one for Republicans. The press is all Democrat, all liberal, all progressive, all left - they hate Republicans, they hate Trump. So the suggestion that there's ever going to be civil discourse in this country for the foreseeable future in this country is over. It's not going to be. It's going to be total war. And as I say to my friends, I do two things - I vote and I buy guns.

There are THOUSANDS, many thousands of legitimate hate crimes. The right will now laser beam their thoughts on the hoax from Jussie Smollett and PRETEND that Smollett represents all "hate crime" claims.

Smollett is actually Trump - like. He lied out of personal vanity and personal considerations in order to advance his own image and his own financial prospects without any care for his lies effect on other , innocent, people. Very Trump like.

You won't hear Joseph DeGenova or Laura Ingraham say that though.

Everyone knows Trump is utterly indefensible on every level. So rather than confront that truth, the right focuses on a periphery of inconsequential stories intended to highlight how "mistreated" conservatives are in America.

Why did the three Democrats in Virginia not resign? It's simple, if they all resign the state government would revert to the hands of the Republicans, who were not and are not the choice of the people of Virginia. Why should an unelected group be put in charge of state government?

I disagree. Smollett represents what many on the left feel, which is a racist stereotype of white America. That is why so many in the media rushed in to back Smollett right from the get-go. It confirmed their confirmation bias.


Why did the three Democrats in Virginia not resign? It's simple, if they all resign the state government would revert to the hands of the Republicans, who were not and are not the choice of the people of Virginia. Why should an unelected group be put in charge of state government? 

So, you are confirming everything DeGenova has ever said about the left.

Thanks John.

I see the "total war" comment as being somewhat hysterical, and the obsession with Trump as being unnecessary, but considering the widening of the gap between right and left as indicated by the media and many reported incidents of uncivil behaviour, civil war is an option if things get worse, but then wouldn't that be difficult when it's neighbour against neighbour instead of a geographical difference like the first American Civil War?

That , by the way  , is total nonsense.  NONE of the corporate media is "progressive". Not MSNBC, not CNN, and certainly not CBS or ABC or the New York Times or Washington Post or USA Today.  They will never endorse Warren's wealth tax or Ocasio -Cortez  70% income tax on the rich. Mass media is corporate owned and as capitalist as it gets.

You're right that the press is not ALL Democrat, liberal, progressive and left. There's still one or two that aren't, like Fox News, that the fact checkers don't relegate to being unacceptable sources, or SPLC doesn't list as "hate sites".

Buzz, US media is owned by multibillion dollar international corporations. The agenda is MONEY, not political ideology. 

The irony is that JOE DIGENOVA stated that crap on Fox, a CONSERVATIVE media outlet, which PROVES that he's delusional. IMHO, Fox does a disservice to give a venue to a conspiracy nut. It's NOT journalism and it's NOT informing the nation. 

FYI, SPLC does NOT designate [list] MEDIA sources in any way shape or form.

SPLC has listed news sources that post news that the mainstream media refuses to publish notwithstanding it is factual, most likely because those sources are considered to be biased for doing so, and because it may hurt certain people's feelings.  Why the mainstream media is concerned about bias when it is biased as hell itself is because the bias is opposite to their own bias.

Again, SPLC does NOT 'list' news or media sources Buzz. Now if a group publishes a magazine, newsletter or TV programing, that MAY be included under the designation for the group but they do not designate media outlets in their listings.

Taking into consideration the dictionary.com definition of "media", I can post examples that they DO.

media

noun

a plural of medium.

( usually used with a plural verb ) the means of communication, as radio and television, newspapers, magazines, and the Internet, that reach or influence people widely:

Taking into consideration the fact that you stated the SPLC listed MEDIA as "hate sites", I reiterate, that is FALSE. 

I explained it to you cogently, I can't make you understand it. Perhaps you should go look at their website and prove it to yourself. It's on you.

If they don't list media sources (in accordance with the definition of media which includes internet circulation) then why is Atlas Shrugged and Jihad Watch listed?  And if THEY are listed, why are Rense and Mondoweis NOT listed?  I saw the list of topics that they will list, and of course anti-Muslim is listed, but antisemitism is NOT.  They list Holocaust Denial which is only a fraction of what is defined as antisemitism.  In my opinion, for those reasons I consider SPLC to be BIASED and therefor unreliable.

Jihad Watch is a blog affiliated with the David Horowitz Freedom Center , run by blogger Robert Spencer

Both of them are designated as Extremists by SPLC as are Robert Spencer's organizations.  

I presume you mean Atlas Shrugs.

Pamela Geller is also designated as an Extremist and the co-founder, with Robert Spencer of Stop Islamization of America (SIOA) and the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), BOTH designated as HATE GROUPS. 

BOTH of the 'blogs' you cited are affiliated with Extremist GROUPS and People, including Robert Spencer who was cited dozens of times in the manifesto written by the Norwegian terrorist Anders Breivik the MASS MURDERER, Spencer was banned from the UK in 2013.

So while YOU may enjoy their writings and support their organizations, there is overwhelming evidence that their machinations are anti-Muslim extremism and that they have formed groups for it's dissemination. 

I saw the list of topics that they will list, and of course anti-Muslim is listed, but antisemitism is NOT. They list Holocaust Denial which is only a fraction of what is defined as antisemitism.

I presume you are talking about the categories under ideologies. Did you miss the Neo-Nazi category Buzz? 

If you want to review their information on antisemitism, all you need to do is SEARCH for it. There are at least 9 PAGES full of information to choose from. 

In my opinion, for those reasons I consider SPLC to be BIASED and therefor unreliable.

Yet you a prolific supporter of the Gatestone Institute. How do you square that Buzz?

"So while YOU may enjoy their writings and support their organizations..."

I never said that I did, I just asked the question, so if you want to say that to smear me I guess that's your privilege, isn't it. Did I say anything to smear you other than disagree with you, which is NOT insulting.

Is Gatestone Institute listed as a "hate site" by SPLC?  I didn't see it. I do know that is is listed in an acceptable category by MBFC.  I do like to see both sides of a story, not just the "liberal" one.  It's something I learned from the very first thing the Dean of my Law School told us on our first day, in that it will be necessary for us to realize that there are at least 2 sides to every story, and we will have to know the other sides at least as well as our own if we intend to be good lawyers.  Not everyone on this site thinks like a lawyer - they only see one side of a story and refuse to acknowledge that there could be others. It's often enough that maybe BOTH sides can be right.

Perhaps you don't bother to look at them, but I have posted THREE pro-Muslim stories in the past few weeks.

Hope you're recovering from the loss of your beloved cat.  I lost the buddy I had for 17 years 33 years ago and I have never gotten over it, so I emphasize with your feelings.

Well only you know why you single those 2 sources Buzz. As I said:

Did I say anything to smear you other than disagree with you, which is NOT insulting.

If you feel insulted by my comment Buzz, flag it. 

Is Gatestone Institute listed as a "hate site" by SPLC?

I never said it was. My comment was in reply to yours about BIAS.

Since you brought up MBFC, you'll note that Gatestone IS rated pretty freaking far on the RIGHT BIAS end of the scale. So I'm merely pointing out that if BIAS is your basis for judging a source as unreliable, Gatestone qualifies. 

Perhaps you don't bother to look at them, but I have posted THREE pro-Muslim stories in the past few weeks.

I spend most of my time in News/Politics so if it was in Op/Ed I probably did miss them. 

Hope you're recovering from the loss of your beloved cat. I lost the buddy I had for 17 years 33 years ago and I have never gotten over it, so I emphasize with your feelings.

Thanks Buzz. As long as I live I will remember them all and will get more soon to love.

The 'Uncivil War' is taking place in North Carolina by GOP voter fraud.  I'll bet not one GOPER goes to prison.

Joseph diGenova is a Quisling--perhaps supported and funded by Russian INTEL.

After declaring himself the winner, that ass walked out of hearings in which he was eviscerated and made a statement that he wants a new election.

He will walk away from all of it and still try to get elected again.

A lady in Texas was sentenced to a couple years for voting twice.  Everyone involved in this North Carolina deal, including the candidates, should serve prison time.

And we should not forget what the GOP did to the Indians in the Dakotas either.  That was voter fraud instigated by the GOP party and the GOP legislature.  Every one of them should be arrested.  Let them explain their actions in court---in front of the people---answering questions by the news folk.  But this will never happen and I want to know why.

It's been more than 24 hours after news broke that an avowed white nationalist Coast Guard officer was allegedly plotting to kill Democratic politicians and journalists. Trump hasn't said a word about it so far.

Trump blabbers his mouth and on twitter over every slight paid to his MAGA followers.

Democrat politicians and media personalities are threatened with death from a white nationalist and Trump doesnt say a word. 

This man is a leader?
