Elite progressive journalism routinely expose tweets,  no matter how old , or how interpreted,  in order to shame its ideological enemies as morally repugnant are themselves exposed as same.

The former are expected to be publicly shamed and punished the latter cry foul as if the same rules for morality they claim to hold as truth do not apply to them. 

Progressives want their brand of morality to be taken seriously but when its time to show some honest consistency in their beliefs instead they circle the wagons.

And they wonder why theyre distrusted and scorned.

Those are some really broad strokes for that picture you are trying to paint... Can you list some examples of these elite progressive journalists please? It would also help if you are to identify the specific brand of morality.

Thnaks.

Jesus ******* christ are you serious? When "progressives" are caught doing something there's usually consequences for it, but the good old "conservatives" routinely hold others to standards that they themselves never live up to. I mean christ the republicans are the so called law and order party but look at the criminal **** they're caught doing all the time.

Fraudulent voters, 

still waiting.

 

 

Yeah! what happened to coming up with some reliable links on fraudulent voters. 

Or are "Elite progressive journalists" and "Progressives want their brand of morality" sourced from the same material?

Reporting vs what the WH is doing is not the same on any level. One is Journalism- the other is releasing damaging information if they deem coverage is not favourable... If you can't see the difference, I'm afraid we can't really have a productive discussion about this. Maybe we can go back to the millions of fraudulent voters, I have been waiting quite sometime on that proof you were going to list.

One of the reasons American led wars never end:

Quote

In December 2006, there were estimated to be at least 100,000 contractors working directly for the United States Department of Defense in Iraq which was a tenfold increase in the use of private contractors for military operations since the Persian Gulf War, just over a decade earlier.[17]

Contractors’ variation in experience, training and capabilities is broad and not well understood. Most contractors are not Westerners, but rather third country nationals, recruits from Iraq and Afghanistan. Many others are veterans from other countries, such as Peru, Colombia, Fiji and Uganda. Some bring less institutional experience, as the industry recruits former child soldiers from Sierra Leone and ex-guerrilla fighters from the FARC.

follow the money.

lol

WASHINGTON — The top U.S. military officer said Wednesday it’s too early to talk about a full American troop withdrawal from Afghanistan, injecting a cautionary note as U.S. peace talks with the Taliban appear to be near a final agreement. 

😂

too early ? How can they say that without  laughing?  when they withdraw military forces, they just replace them with the private army, so the war continues.

Meanwhile in Stockholm Syndrome news:

Kim Jong Un has proceeded to improve his nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles, with 7 rounds of tests in less than 3 weeks and ignores U.S. calls for working level negotiations. Trump dismisses all this because he received “beautiful letters” from Kim, and points out that Kim just "likes to launch missiles"

Wait....you can't say that.....can you? You must be a white supremacist or something.

WHy are you calling him a racist? there was nothing in those post that would indicate he was racist. It's a little tinfoil fodder, but far from racist. 

Geez man- step away from the key board you social justice warrior.

A Michigan high school is undergoing a $48 million renovation to fortify against mass shooters. Fruitport High School is adding curved hallways to keep people out of the line of sight of gunmen, barriers to provide protection and easy escape, classrooms that can lock on demand, shatterproof glass, and an extensive surveillance system, The Washington Post reported. The architect, Matt Slagle, whose firm also designs prisons, cautions that the fortifications won’t make the school invincible, since most school shooters are students who are already familiar with the campus layout. “Unfortunately, that’s the way things are now,” Slagle said.

Timing on this sucks

 

not really. the NRA's mindset is that the solution to the gun problem is more guns.  and it's a show of force that even though America is turning into a free-fire zone they can still push their agenda.  it's going to bite them someday, though.

was watching the evening news here in Seattle -- Labor Day is a huge festival time here, with Bumbershoot and PAX and half the town leaving for Burning Man -- and they spent most of their opening slot talking about the security arrangements at the various events.  Not the headliners or the festival-goers or whomever, but instead how they were planning on preventing gun violence.  it's ******* sickening.
