Hire a lawyer before talking to law enforcement... but also make sure it's a lawyer who isn't going to make matters worse.

    If Russia is paying nobodies like Tim Fool millions of dollars, just imagine how much they are paying Republican politicians and their talking heads on Fox News, NewsMax, OAN etc.

        Jesse Watters implied he’s being paid less based on his surprise when Jessica Tarlov shared it was 400k per month.

    I mean, “lawyer up before talking to the police” is universally good advice.

      Yeah, but in this case, they are talking heads with a significant following, and anything they say in public at this point could also come back to bite them in the keister. And given the track record of these people, more than one of them is likely to publicly put feet into mouths long before they talk to a lawyer.

    Most of these people got into the position of being ruble rubes because they’re idiots so luckily they can’t help but talk a bunch.

    Thing about people like Trump and Musk is they think they’re special and can handle themselves fine without an attorney. And they can’t stop talking.

      I doubt any. Leaving these self serving sociopaths out there to use their megaphones to spin various self serving stories just adds to the chaos and confusion, which is the point of these operations. Have people doubt there is an objective truth, so they make up their minds in a way that reinforces their beliefs, entrenching themselves even more.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
