    Dropped a bombshell? More like dropped some water in the ocean. This is obvious to anyone not burying their head in the sand.

      Not on this side of the great information rift, no. But think of the people imprisoned inside the MAGA echo chamber. For them this may be news, and MJT and Rogan do have the potential to pierce the walls of their “conservative” media rubber rooms just enough for some fresh air to come through.

        They’re on that side because they choose to be there. There could be a cure for cancer on this side and they wouldn’t care.

          I’m not defending or glorifying either of them. They’ve done tons of damage to the U.S. by spreading lies and division. What I’m saying is that they might prove useful idiots for a change, fracturing the MAGA cult just enough to allow the less brainwashed to come to their senses.

          They absolutely WOULD care. If you cure cancer, you lose all the money being made to treat cancer, and THAT can’t happen.
