    is newsweek considered a serious source? even this objectively right seeming headline is kind of a nothingburger, isnt it?

      Are you thinking of NewsMax or whatever? Newsweek AFAIK is a run-of-the-mill average news source - no NYT but certainly not NY Post.

        maybe as European im not too well versed in US sources and judged too harsh based on anecdotal experience. All the news Ive seen are always on the “nothing has been said” or “thats reaching” side.

        my bad then

          You’re on the nose with that, which is why ground.news is so vital especially now. You can read about the same story from multiple perspectives and often they’ll have a handy synopsis that has key info from all the writings.

          Or for that matter, see through the flood and read about things that matter a lot more.

          Oh wow, theres more to this discussion, nicely useful!

          says:

          evaluate on case-by-case basis

          So its kind of in a grey zone, not reliable doesnt mean bad source in that case. Useful link, altough wikipedia is also a grey zone in the sense that its information based on open source (everybody can edit it, and most liked proposals get through as I understand)

    He was bragging about the “transparency” of the zelensky meeting. Why not make these calls public?

      It’s so the republicans/conservatives feel validated by the fact there is a corruption in the government…… the rest of us are just waiting for them to catch onto the fact it’s primarily their own party that is corrupt. Just gotta be patient though as they struggle to grasp these mind of concepts quickly.

        Their ignorance is entirely wilful. They’ll still be blaming Biden when they have to hack off their own foot because of the diabeetus.

        Let’s straighten one thing out here… Both sides are corrupt… It’s not your side is better… The Democrats have shown their ass more than they ever have before… They are the same…

        Until something changes one side isn’t better than the other… It’s literally the rich vs the poor and the sooner people realize this maybe we can change something…

        The whole thing is corrupt…

    Trump calls Moscow.

    Putin makes him wait on hold for a few hours as a power move.

    Putin gets on the phone and says “Fuck with Canada more you piece of shit babushka. I’ll have your daughter killed, bitch.” then hangs up.

    Trump tells the ‘Washington Examiner’ that the two leaders have engaged in multiple phone discussions over the past weeks.
