DL Open Thread Monday April 3 2023

Only 4 Mass Shooting events so this April with 6 dead.   That’s a slow start.  The Delaware Sportsman’s Association is plugging away to get that number up.

Delaware joined the deadly tornado club this month.   I wonder if there is some connection between all of these deadly storms and climate change?   Hmm…?  We may never know.  Just one of those unfathomable mysteries.  

“The transgender movement” is militant and dangerous according to the rightwing hate machine.  The GOP and Fox News is ratcheting up the vitriol and prepping for an “end times” battle with militant and dangerous “activists” that only want to be left alone.   

TUCKER CARLSON: The trans movement is targeting Christians

The Romans gave this month the Latin name Aprilis[1] but the derivation of this name is uncertain. The traditional etymology is from the verb aperire, “to open”, in allusion to its being the season when trees and flowers begin to “open”,

    Thanks for that link. Now on to the questions of “was it malicious?” Again, doesn’t look good for Fox News.

    The motive, reiterated in internal documents, seemed simple: Keep its radicalized viewers satisfied to keep them from fleeing to competitors.

    Fox’s arguments appear weak. It claims there’s a difference between not knowing something is true and knowing it’s false. But running something without any evidence that it is true sounds like the very definition of malice — i.e., reckless disregard for the truth.

    So stupid. All to keep a bunch of malarkey hogs and outrage addicts stationed at their malarkey trough.

    Is it me or does the ‘gag’ order on trump seem to be, again, made up by the right wing press to start a new propaganda machine about free speech. why would the judge order a gag order knowing its more likely trump will continue to self-incriminate?

      Precisely. A gag order, should there be one, would be issued to save Trump from himself. If he keeps his mouth shut, he cannot further incriminate himself.
      OTOH, Trump will claim that a gag order violates his constitutional right to freedom of speech, and he will once more incriminate himself.

    A gag order would make it more difficult for trump to use each turn of the trial to raise money (to pay his lawyers. et. al.) which has become particularly annoying lately.

    I won’t be gagged, but I will most certainly be gagging.
