The Story That “Hillbilly Elegy” Doesn’t Tell
Like many memoirs, J. D. Vance’s book misses a few details, some of which complicate the story upon which he has based much of his politics.
JD Vance Falsely Claims Democrats Were Behind Trump Assassination Attempt by Republican Gunman: ‘They Even Tried to Kill Him’
Sen. JD Vance suggested that Democrats were behind last month's assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.

You keep posting here and no more posts of upper deck elite democrats. We all want more of that. Shows how they live such simple ordinary lives.
‘Dangerous and un-American’: new recording of JD Vance’s dark vision of women and immigration
Trump’s running mate rants against feminism, immigrants and Ilhan Omar in a newly unearthed podcast from 2021
Expand the base they said
Can't be, I was told by people on this board that this man is a populist. Look at how comfortable he looks joining the UAW picket line in Toledo last year.
I characterize it as "the democrat establishment" media. The media that takes whatever the democrat power broker talking points are and bases their narratives on thse talking points. There is no question that this cabal of democrat establishment media ALL use the same or very similar terminology when describing events of the day. They have very few journalists in their ranks.... they are hacks. They have no soul. Witness the last debate and the actions of the moderators..... who can call those two objective journalists?
Works both ways FOX and NEWSMAX. You have choices what to watch or even listen to on radio for your particular taste of what you want to hear or believe in.
NewsNation is the only cable network that is truly down the middle. And when you watch Major networks…ABC, CBS, NBC you realize how far left-leaning they are.
Down the middle is not sexy for consumption. Perhaps they will have a strong election night and nexstar really wants this to pan out. Compared to fnc and msnbc no one is watching newsnation.
I hope nexstar is in this for the long run because I believe it is a positive thing to have multiple options.

Any updates on another gun-toting Liberal planning on committing homicide in the name of politics. "They go low, we go high" yet again.
I think she meant to say "they go low.... we go lower..... and lower... and lower....thud"
It’s about as neutral a news source you will find out there. They are by far the most “middle” rated. And yes, it’s actual news (which may be “boring” for some) and when they do have outside opinions they have both sides and don’t pose stupid questions that spur divisive responses.
They have an app too, so if your cable service doesn’t carry it (which I find hard to believe), you can get all the content on your pc/phone.
They shouldn't be allowed to be called news channels if they are spinning the news to be sexy for consumption. Being allowed to be called news is part of the problem because they have persuaded people to think they're watching news. Fox asks republicans easier questions to republicans and CNN and MSNBC go soft on democrats. If you're not going to be neutral journalists you should just have to tell the people. It might help calm the rhetoric if were told this is not news, this is a left or right spin on the news.
Even media people will tell you ABC, NBC and CBS slant left. They are supposed to be news; not opinion.
For example, last week when Trump met with musk, and they talked about him leading a task force to take waste out of government, in the story David Muir reported he referred to musk three times as “controversial”, referenced a retweet he made last year about a supposed Anti-Semitic post, and cuts at Twitter.
Nothing about Musk leading companies that are impacting climate change (Tesla), a company (SpaceX) that does what a government agency (NASA) did at a fraction of the cost and faster; or creating tens of thousands of high paying jobs for AMERICANS!
There is NO equivalency comparing Fox and Newsmax to the combined Networks, Big Tech, Reuters, AP, AOL, Yahoo, Meta, Media Matters, Google, Amazon, NPR, NY Times, WAPO, LA Times other major news sources...... I could go on. I would add those unelected bureaucrats in the FBI, CIA, IRS, DOJ and other federal agencies that have been used against democrats administrations' political opponents. This consortium of organizations has been in the pocket of the left for a number of years and have shown their true colors once Trump challenged their hold on American media and showed themselves to be a tool of the democrat party.
Tell me who was it that concocted Russia collusion and continues to lie about it.....who censored information about the Hunter laptop, who lied about it, who sat on it for a year. Who backed every lie that came out of the last two Democrat administrations. Who continues to demonize Trump with unsubstantiated lies.....calling him Hitler, a wannabe dictator, threat to democracy, saying he threatened a literal bloodbath... all lies coming from the unnamed sources who are running our country and who dutifully spreads the word like so much grape jelly over the whole country uttering the same sound bites over.... and over.... and over. NOT Fox or NEWSMAX. No its totally inaccurate to try and gloss over reality with that comparison.
Thankfully you can add organizations like X and maybe Rumble to Fox and Newsmax to help stem the tide. I fear the worse though. The deck is stacked too high against it.
Musk is certainly controversial. He embraces that.
Not all of the criticism is fair, but some definitely is. I don't think anyone in a federal position who tweets/retweets the stuff that Musk does would keep their job for very long.
I'm still a fan of his, though I would prefer he didn't amplify some of the nonsense that he does on X.
I'm actually picking up a Model 3 this weekend. I had two family members ask if that was a good idea because of how unhinged he is.
One was probably the most unreasonably liberal person I know, the other was a moderate republican.
I recently listened to him on the Lex Fridman podcast. He was mostly talking about Neuralink which was incredibly interesting. Musk is clearly brilliant and thinking through things and their impact on humanity in terms of impact over decades and centuries. I like that version of Musk... Social media just seems to get the worst out of him (like most people)
He is controversial but they painted him in a totally negative fashion in the story. And we know why.
Yeah, because he is entering the political space this cycle and has been amplifying some of the most divisive rhetoric online. I follow him on X and his persona there is batshit crazy compared to listening him speak on political issues.
If he had this interview with Trump and offered to be a part of his Administration four years ago, it would have been received very differently.
The Atlantic..... here are the articles in this month's Political section: See a pattern?
"This is what a losing campaign looks like". referring to Trump/Vance linked above
"Democrats can't rely on the Black Church anymore" Ostensibly straight forward reporting, but can't access article
"Trump and Vance are Harming the People They Claim to Care About"
"The Judges Who serve at Trump's Pleasure"
"The Insurrectionists Next Door"
"How the Election Denial Mindset Works"
"A Horrifying New Attempt on Trump's Life" .... ostensibly fact based. Can't read article
"Trump's Lie is another test for Christian America"
"I'm not sure Progressives want Democrats to be that Big Tent.
"Trump's New Big Lie"
There were 10 more articles.. all about the election, 7 of which had titles with a negative Trump headline.
There were NO critical articles on Harris. Only how she broke Trump.
So if all you want to read is one side of the story.... you know where to look.
