This headline:
"Women's basketball needs faces of future to be Black."
— USA Today, March 7
We say: You can't get more racist and out-of-touch than Lindsay Schnell in her USA Today column.
She fears too many whites are headed for the WNBA, and stardom, after Iowa's Caitlin Clark snagged the spotlight as the NCAA's Division 1 all-time high scorer.
Fact is, there's no shortage of black WNBA stars; the league's more than 70% black, much like the NBA.
Besides, sports are based on merit, not skin color. Fans have been cheering great athletes of every race since even before Jackie Robinson. Memo to Schnell: That's not likely to change.
This claim:
"[Hur's report] represents the complete and total exoneration [of Biden]."
— Rep. Jerry Nadler, Tuesday
We say: Huh? Special Counsel Robert Hur himself denied his classified-documents probe "exonerated" President Biden; he merely thought a jury wouldn't convict the prez.
Yet Nadler (D-NY) wasn't the only Dem to make that claim.
"You exonerated him," insisted Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.). "I did not," responded Hur, prompting Jayapal to cut him off.
Can't let actual facts interfere with Dem gaslighting, can we?
This charge:
"[Republicans are] avowedly against reading. They're banning books!"
— MSNBC commentator Anand Giridharadas, Friday
We say: Do any of MSNBC's viewers actually believe such drivel?

Even if Giridharadas' claims are mere hyperbole, they so drastically distort reality (Republicans, even some Dems, simply oppose giving young kids access to sex-related material in schools) as to be totally nonsensical.
Except, of course, as a smear.
This warning:
"Not since . . . the Civil War have freedom and democracy been under assault here at home as they are today."
— President Biden, State of the Union, Mar. 7
We say: Biden spewed endless lies in his State of the Union address (like that he cut the deficit by $1 trillion and created 15 million jobs).
But his warning about freedom and democracy might actually be warranted.
After all, Democrats have been trying to kick candidates off ballots, blacklisting critics and seeking restrictions on speech.
Team Biden itself weaponized government agencies and worked to censor social media.
Yes, the threat's there. It's just not, as Biden implied, coming from Republicans.

Democrat think in a nutshell...............this is their shame.
Jerry "No Nads" Nadler would not know exoneration even if it hit him in the face!
Nadler shows just how far into straight lying democrats talking points have devolved. They’ll claim a jury said trump raped caroll, even though the jury explicitly said he didn’t. they’ll claim Hur exonerated Biden even though Hur said the exact opposite, repeatedly.

Unfortunately many of them do and a few on NT prove it. Believing things they want to be true for their narrative gets in the way of critical thinking.
It's that thing called wish fulfillment.
Then there's this:
Have to wonder how Nadler likes being compared to Trump. LOL
