Ben Jacobs is reporting that Greg Gianforte assaulted him

[_The CCC]

Truly deplorable.

[_MeDotOrg]

This is hilarious. The best eye witness account of the incident comes from a FOX News reporter. Her version is being spread everywhere except for.... FOX News's top shows.

Why?

Because her testimony doesn't jive with their preferred narrative of "Republican at all costs." In fact her eye witness account is incriminating against this moron. Today in the car I heard Rush Limbaugh bragging about this incident calling the man a "manly guy" and the reporter a "millennial dish rag."

"I did see the whole thing, when Gianoforte grabbed him by the neck, both hands, slid him to the side, body-slammed him, and then got on top of him and started punching and yelling at him."


Fox News Had The Best Reporting On Journalist Attack, But Its Top Hosts Ignored It

Remember when Corey Lewandowski grabbed the Fox Reporter? When there is a conflict between what happened and the preferred Fox narrative...well, they report and you decide, but they get to decide what to report.

It would appear that Fox News only corrupts its journalists at the national level. Makes sense. That's where the big contracts are.

Fox doesn't seem to enforce their ideology on the local Fox News stations. I imagine that enables them to compete with honest stations better on a local level where people are not as easily bullpooped.

[_EAllusion]

According to the election watchers I like to follow, things are looking pretty good for a Gianforte win.

Nate Cohn is saying Quist would need a miracle at this point to win. Betting markets have congealed around a Gianforte win.

The bad takes are going to be really bad with this one.

Montana has elected Greg "The Brawler" Gianforte to Congress. Perhaps Speaker Ryan can assign him to be the bouncer at the House Pub and Legislative Parlor to fulfill the Republican promise of fighting tooth and nail for the wealthy.

and here comes the butt-hurt parade for another lap

[_Some Schmo]

Gianforte ran as a Drumpf wannabee. He almost did it:

- Loses his crap over a question
- Provides BS explanation that clearly defies the evidence everyone else can see

Pretty good so far, except:

- Apologizes for his mistake

Ooooo... so close.

what a cry-baby...once again we see that the Dems refuse to accept the fact that they lost the race, lost due to a lack of policy, lack of leadership, lack of strategy, and just lack of everything in a modern America.


Although Quist raised sizable funds on his own, he got crushed in outside spending. Republican political action committees spent $5.6 million on behalf of Gianforte and against Quist, compared with just $700,000 spent by outside groups trying to elect the Democrat, according to an analysis by Roll Call.

In March and early April in particular, Republican groups were able to tie Quist to House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and attack his financial peccadilloes with a limited response from the Democratic side.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which works to elect House Democrats, virtually ignored the race until the middle of April. It eventually injected a total of $600,000 in the race, a fraction of the sum it has spent on a special election in Georgia’s 6th congressional district, where the party believes that filmmaker Jon Ossoff has a clearer path to victory.

The Dems abandoned this election a long time ago, why would you expect different results, idiots?
