"today was a good day"

It was hilarious watching them being slapped silly today.

Maybe Rachel will replay it? I doubt it, but it would be fun if she did.

and laughing.

I was at the dentist getting a crown. But that crown is still more legitimate than Rump's!

I have seen to numerous times!

Then we have Tucker Carlson losing sponsors over his racist remarks.

And, how about Judge Napolitano?

but what Faux says.

But seriously, anything that demonstrates just how stupid Faux "news" really is can only be a good thing. I've been saying (and I know a lot of others have been saying this too) that the way to scrub the country of RW ideology is to go after their media.

$2000 if they cut away from Pirro's yammering to show it.

I like to remember O'Lielly asserting over and over that he only ever reports the "truth". Only. Ever. I'm sure all the other Faux idiots believe that of themselves.

Best laugh all day. I wonder what "Judge" Pirro has to say now that Judge Sullivan destroyed that Trump/Fox conspiracy theory?

We don't have Fox

Saw it on another program.

Even though the judge mellowed his statements after he returned to the bench, his words are still hanging out there--you sold your country out, was treason considered, I'm not hiding my disgust, my disdain--because they echo what many of us have said and/or thought. It's clear that there's no remorse on Flynn's part, only regret that he was caught and forced out into the open. Having his lawyers take another swipe at the FBI, pretend that he was 'tricked' into coughing up information indicates he's still spouting Trumpski's propaganda and appealing to MAGA base.

I share the judge's disgust.

shouldn't have to be told to tell the truth to anyone. His only reason to lie would be to cover something up, and that's exactly what he did. FOX lives in an alternate reality where truth and facts can gain no purchase. The Judge today made him back down and admit he intentionally lied to the FBI and that there was no duress involved with him doing so. Flynn is a liar and a criminal. You can see why Trump picked him. He picks "all the best people".

I think 'we' need to cease using 'alternate reality' and use the true word.

LIES !!!!!

That he knew lying to the FBI was wrong.

Flynn and his Attorneys tried to pull a fast one on the Judge. He cut them off at the knees.

Now Flynn will have to co- operate with the Investigation. His jail time depends on it.

Why would she think he's in the tank for trump then?

That's what the pundits said so I found this

Thanks for this

what am I missing?

because Stevens was a big time ReTHUG.

the other was a prosecutor and Emmet is a judge. Maybe I didn't read the names right? I'm dense sometimes!

Now she has proven it again!

. . .my, my, how she's really gone off the rails.

But her hubby Albert couldn't keep out of trouble; he was once Trump's butt boy for an ill-conceived development project out on Long Island Sound - which got roundly defeated on all sides.

I recall something, but honestly the corruption and crimes are so deep it is hard to remember them all.

The Pirros are divorced, as well.

Merry Christmas!

Glad she is getting ridiculed.

she was just too stupid to realize that the judge would (correctly) recognize FLYNN as the swamp and not mueller.

i'm sure she'll apologize for her error tonight

Does she really believe the shit she spews?

She is paid to present to her viewers the fictional narratives they want to hear, and then she laughs all the way to the bank.

To my mind, that is largely how he and the situation turned out. It's just that she has different definitions, different metrics and different expectations.

He fell WAY short of hers, yet he exceeded mine. Tom-ay-to Tom-ah-to.

It would mean that all differing definitions, metrics and expectations of any given scenario are valid, until the situation plays out. And even then, there are no faulty ideas involved, just unexpected results.

Unfortunately, this reasoning doesn’t allow for a flat-out repudiation of any inherently toxic or destructive beliefs: racism, xenophobia, religious fanaticism, right-wing dictatorships, etc., because they’re simply a particular set of definitions, metrics and expectations.

When you look at how she said the judge would act, she is pretty much spot-on.

She said that he is "a jurist unafraid of the swamp, a judge who has a track record of calling out prosecutorial misconduct, a man who does not tolerate injustice or abuse of power."

"unafraid of the swamp" ==> Unafraid of Trump

"track record of calling out prosecutorial misconduct" ==> A good indicator he thought there was no such misconduct

"does not tolerate injustice or abuse of power" ==> He certainly didn't tolerate Flynn's abuse of power or injustice


Her expectations and definitions of what things like "the swamp" and "abuse of power" meant were way off, but her thought of how the judge would respond to those things was correct.

Because, like most Trumpists (if not all) her beliefs and expectations were/are completely out of line with what occurs in objective, measurable reality.

Her delusional hubris enabled her (incorrect) prognostication on how the judge was going to go easy on Flynn. She actually thought that she had this in the bag. Oops.

Say that Sean Hannity (sorry) claims, “Trump will go down as a larger-than-life president who shook up the status quo. He is one of a kind, and Americans will never forget him.”

Using the aforementioned reasoning, semantically, every word in that statement is true, if only by virtue of its unspecified wording. But we know that he’s full of poop, and is either delusional or just plain lying, because we know Sean Hannity.

Don’t worry, I’m not on some quest here, just knocking around some ideas. I appreciate your point of view. Thanks, whopis01. And that IS true!

I'm not on any quest either - I just find it kind of fascinating, if futile, to try to figure out what the thought process is with someone like her.

I know I am putting way too much thought into this. I am sure that if she had known how the judge would react ahead of time, she would have been talking him down and telling people what a bad judge he is and how he shouldn't be overseeing this case. I am sure the only reason she was praising him was because she thought the outcome was going to go the other way.

Either way - I just found it entertaining that she could (seemingly) accurately describe the judge, but so horribly fail to predict what his action would be.

I can understand someone getting the basic facts wrong, then coming to an incorrect conclusion. You can be mistaken about something, but still be logical. However, to get the basic facts correct, and then come to an incorrect conclusion shows a complete lack of logic.

So - I don't disagree with anything you have said. She is delusional. I just find some twisted entertainment in that.

Thank you too!

Was actually correct.

She made the case beforehand that Judge Sullivan would be scrutinizing prosecutorial behavior and would bend over backwards toward the defense. That gave his decision and statements even more weight.

Her voice. Her voice. Her voice.

Shove the shards in both ears

That would be better than listening to that voice

They will defend Trump even when he is in cuffs. Fox News better start facing reality or next year their top advertisers could be chia pet, the clapper and the floobie.

She called Sullivan “a jurist unafraid of the swamp" - and apparently he's not.

What Pirro doesn't understand is that Trump & Co IS the swamp.

... who the swamp dwellers are - there's plenty of swampitude to go around.

I'd include anyone who Spanky has appointed to anything - like his cabinet members, his "advisors", his lawyers, judges, ambassadors, etc. - ya know, everyone he's ever described as being "the best people".

yes agreed

She sounds like a nutcase or a really hammy melodrama actor in the clip in the OP.

Surprised that their customary delusional cover-scenario hasn’t been trotted out yet.

A few sandwiches short of a picnic.

Of a load!

Never forget that Fox News doesn't just promote disinformation, deception and lies; they work relentlessly to swing elections in an overt manner.

This is truly disgusting.

She says: Guilt or innocence is moot. We cannot have a President under constant criminal investigation. I agree.

Just ask her husband. Oh, I think she may have had a hand in violating tax laws too, but hey, who among us hasn't violated a criminal statute or two? In case you weren't aware of her background...

Those tax returns. She is as guilty as he is.

Well, she sure got that part right!

Nice. Score one for truth.

“a jurist unafraid of the swamp, a judge who has a track record of calling out prosecutorial misconduct, a man who does not tolerate injustice or abuse of power."

She expected him to overthrow the charges. I'm betting she or Hannity booked him for one or both program last night. :rol:

…#walkofshame

Guessing there are some words beginning with a "c" that are not tolerated, even when they were created specifically with her in mind!
