Biden/Harris: A Presidency for All Americans

They got enough to get some subpoenas to drag lots of other folks in to confirm the Big Guy gets his 10%.

That's not enough to interrupt the judge at lunch, much less get a subpoena issued.

"Are you aware of any wrongdoing by Vice-President Biden?" "No, I'm not aware of any."
"Based on everything you saw, heard, and observed, did you have any knowledge of Joe Biden having any involvement with Burisma?" "No"

Sounds like Joe called a favor to his friend Hillary to threaten to break someone’s legs or neck if the didn’t stop talking… “Don’t f*** with a Biden.”

crazy that his hapless, bumbling idiocy is all just deep cover for his real sinister crime syndicate leadership

Right on schedule, UT realizes that he can't convince anyone based on the lack of evidence, so he does a side-step and tries to claim that the reason there's no evidence of wrongdoing is because Biden must have covered it up or intimidated witnesses. Of course, he won't have any evidence of that, either. On to the next culture war topic before you can be expected to defend your nonsense on this topic!

Those are the best conspiracies. Attempts to disprove them only end up proving them.

Lol @ people who take UT so seriously.

Exactly.

I actually think Ted believes most of the things he posts. He’s been at it for way too long, with way too much volume, to be doing it just for a few chuckles.

That is not to say that he deserves to be taken seriously, of course.

The illusory of truth effect is definitely a thing with people who have a limited information diet.


"The illusory truth effect (also known as the illusion of truth effect, validity effect, truth effect, or the reiteration effect) is the tendency to believe false information to be correct after repeated exposure.^[1]This phenomenon was first identified in a 1977 study at Villanova University and Temple University.^[2][3]When truth is assessed, people rely on whether the information is in line with their understanding or if it feels familiar. The first condition is logical, as people compare new information with what they already know to be true. Repetition makes statements easier to process relative to new, unrepeated statements, leading people to believe that the repeated conclusion is more truthful. The illusory truth effect has also been linked to hindsight bias, in which the recollection of confidence is skewed after the truth has been received.

In a 2015 study, researchers discovered that familiaritycan overpower rationality and that repetitively hearing that a certain statement is wrong can paradoxically cause it to feel right.^[4] Researchers attributed the illusory truth effect's impact even on participants who knew the correct answer to begin with, but were persuaded to believe otherwise through the repetition of a falsehood, to "processing fluency".

The illusory truth effect plays a significant role in fields such as advertising, news media, and political propaganda."

With all the monumental lies streaming out of Mar A Lago and on Truth Social every minute, can you imagine highlighting a claim about seeing a bridge collapse as some sort of gotcha moment?

When you have absolutely nothing to fall back on, I guess you take what you can get!

I would definitely fall back (or forward) on a collapsing bridge.
