Nolte: The Real Reason Far-Left Guardian Quit Xwitter… …Celebs Bail Too SNIP: Take a moment to read the replies in the Guardian’s xweets. Sure, you might find some “toxicity” in there, but read the overall replies in these – three – xweets and you will see the real reason for the Guardian forfeiting its voice in the public square. If you think I’m cherry-picking xweets to make my point, choose any Guardian xweet and read the replies. No, better yet, read the replies found in any high-profile, left-wing Xwitter account. Go to Rob Reiner, Stephen King, Jake Tapper, Elizabeth Warren, Joy Reid, the Washington Post, the New York Times, the Atlantic, NPR, etc., and you will see for yourself what I’m about to point out… They. Are. Losing. The. Debate. And. They. Can’t. Stand. It. No one has to tell me Xwitter still attracts haters. Via every possible means of communication, I’m regularly hit with all kinds of hate. The difference between me and those who whine about it is that I’m not a little crybaby girl. Trust me, hate has nothing to do with the left’s ongoing censorship/boycotting jihad against Xwitter… What the left cannot stand is the fact that they are losing the national debate. With Xwitter no longer in the hands of fascists like Jack Dorsey, with the end of the blacklisting of conservatives and conservative ideas (which never ended the hate), Xwitter has become a much more vibrant and open-minded forum for all kinds of expression. More importantly, it is also something much closer to a no-bullshit-allowed zone. Back in the Jack Dorsey days when only foo-foo elites were handed blue checkmarks and anyone who dared stray from the Leftist Thought Plantation was banned, these leftists never had to face serious challenges to their ideas or hypocrisies. People who dared were wished into the cornfield. Well, those days are over… Bad ideas — and that’s all the left has got — cannot survive in a forum where a slob like me has the same free speech rights as a Stephen King or Bette Midler or CNNLOL or even Elon Musk. Any one of us can jump into the replies to point out the double standards, the hypocrisies, and the facts. And when you are an ideologue, when you are closed-minded, when you do not have the maturity to change your mind in the face of reality, it is intolerable to lose an argument. This is the same reason the left has never survived or succeeded on talk radio. Left-wing ideas cannot survive in an environment where they can be challenged.

Schadenfreude Alert: Van Jones Melts Down Over the Miserable State of the Democratic Party snip: Van Jones gave us a glimpse into the miserable state of the Democratic Party during a recent appearance on CNN. His meltdown was a mix of exasperation, self-pity, and, at times, dark humor, but his frustration was undeniable. And I loved every second of it. “I’m miserable,” Jones declared bluntly. “What do you want me to say? This is terrible.” His candor was refreshing, especially as he laid bare the reality Democrats are facing. “Nobody thought we would have undivided government. We thought if Trump snuck in there, we would at least have Hakeem Jeffries standing in the way to try to save it.” Sorry bud, Trump got the trifecta. “This is just a horrible weekend … I am miserable. What question do you have for me?” he asked before changing his mind. “Don't ask me any questions. It might make me burst into tears. This is horrible.” “We don't want anyone crying on this show,” host Jessica Dean said. “But I do wonder, Van, from your perspective … if you are the Democrats, what are you going to do for the next two years? How do you recoup?” “Therapy. Therapy,” Jones replied. “We are all going to therapy.” "Why are we here? If you are a Democrat, all we can say is, 'We hope that Susie decides to take a vacation and they hire some terrible people to make some mistakes to give us a chance.' Right now, they have everything,” he said, referring to the Electoral College, the national popular vote, the Supreme Court, the White House, and both houses of Congress. Related: Watch How the Mainstream Media Freaked Out Over Trump's Victory “And we're just sitting here with a dunce cap on,” he continued. “At this time last week, we thought we were the smartest people in the world. We thought Donald Trump was an idiot. We thought his campaign made no sense. And it turned out they were smarter than us and we don't have anything to say.” ”I just sit here, pretend I know something. Here's what I know, everybody I know is miserable. Everybody is on these Zoom calls. Nobody's got any good ideas and it's really going to take us a while to figure this out," he added. The revelation that the GOP’s campaign tactics outsmarted the Democrats hit Jones hard, and he wasn’t going to sugarcoat it: “We got whooped. We got whooped, and we did not understand that.”
