Excerpted...
Nikki Haley had an eye-popping month of fundraising in January, hauling in almost as much cash as the prior three months combined, Axios has learned.

Why it matters: The Haley campaign has the money to keep her long-shot presidential bid alive, even as many leaders in her party have called for the GOP primary to come to an end.

• Haley raised $16.5 million in January, including $11.7 million from grassroots supporters, according to her campaign.
• The campaign also added 69,274 new donors last month.

Zoom in: Haley brought in more than $5 million in online grassroots donations the week after New Hampshire. She saw a surge in support after Trump threatened to bar any Haley donor from "MAGA camp."

A source that reports news without bias

Unless it aligns with your own, of course.

 

[Evangelicalhumanist]

Now…. the question is, is the person who made this report unbiased.

I just read about the times when Snopes was caught at being biased. So who is fact checking the fact checkers.

But of course you don't tell us where you read that...

Even FOX News may think so. A recent poll has Biden beating Trump by 50 to 44 percent. I wonder how Nikki is polling? Oh, she still beats Biden.

Let's hope Trump fades away, but it appears he's closer than he was. There is a trend developing among young, pro-Palestinian Biden supporters that do NOT like his support for Israel! Also, Biden may be losing black and Latinos voters. The question remains though how Trump will deal with the Gaza conflict. Will Trump try to spin Gaza and blame Bidens apparent weakness for the attack on Israel? Will Trump exploit some aspect of the "genocide Joe" claim???

Examples:

Illegal immigrant deported 4 times accused of deadly DUI crash​

Interpretation: Porous border, Biden has poor policies, pray for the family that lost lost child and pray that common sense enters into our politicians.

Prosecutor in Trump Georgia Case Admits Relationship With Colleague​

Interpretation: Collusion, political hack job by the DA, blessing your lover with extra cash (so she can hide it under “a workman is worthy of his hire) - Prayer… “Let that which is hid be proclaimed from the rooftop”.

Shockingly bad and shallow "interpretations."

How do you know that illegal immigrant arrived during Biden's watch? Biden's policies are the same as Trump's policies -- remember, Trump invoked Title 42, and Biden kept it! Biden was accused of being "harsh," because Human Rights Watch said the policy was "illegal and violates the human rights of those subjected to it".

How is having a relationship "collusion?" Are you the person who gets to decide who Fanni Willis has a relationship with? Why, because you're a man and she's a woman, and all men have a right to tell all women what to do? "Political hack job?" I guess you were reading the Bible while Trump was exhorting his hordes to go to the Capitol, and you were busy praying while he spent over 3 hours gloating over his dining room TV as his toadies defiled the Senate and House, breaking doors and windows and leaving feces in the process.

"Lety that which was hid..." So everybody should proclaim their private business from the rooftops? You too?

I fully expect that if Trump wins, we'll
have Diaspora Don, because supporting
Israel is very important to his fundie Magas.

There are many (R)'s like me that are done with Trump. I don't see how there are enough supporters to push him over the top, but it does look closer than I would have thought!

No stupid idiotic chart is going to substitute what I actually see in the real world whenever I or anyone else goes shopping for goods or services.

I.e. no data will ever be sufficient to overcome your predetermined biases

Don't underestimate Biden's
ability to lose the election.

 

[RestlessSoul]

Stupid blocking of the chart.

The problem is that when the rate of inflation comes down, that doesn't mean prices are coming down, even in real terms. It just means they're not going up as fast. If wages are stagnant, and have been outstripped by inflation, people are still going to feel poorer every time they go shopping or pay a bill.

Not sure it is as dire as you think. Look at this site:

Trump is leading in NV, AZ, WI, MI, GA. Not saying Trump is going to win, no one knows, but the poll you reference seems off.

Do not trust Polls.Trust the guy with most money.This is the true definition of democracy EG adverts radio stations propaganda. Bet Trump wins POTUS 24.

Trump is almost out of money. A lot of his wealth is either a sham or tied up in real estate and not readily available. The E, Jean Carroll case is just the beginning. He has also been found guilty of civil tax fraud in New York state and the judge is just figuring out how many hundreds of millions of dollars that it will cost Trump.

By the way, he can appeal both cases, but to do so he has to come up with all of the cash to that has to be put into escrow first. And Trump has already been tapping campaign donations to pay for his lawyers and new funds are not coming in quickly as people are beginning to see through Trump. In other words, Trump's financial woes have now also become the financial woes of the Republican party.

I think if you read the headlines, you can pretty much determine what is going on in the world. And I asked you what determines “in depth” when you really don’t know what goes on in the background

I’ll take that as a tacit reply in the affirmative as to whether you consider yourself well informed.

In addition, based on your interpretations of your sample headlines, I feel I have a pretty good grasp of what your interpretation of “well informed” constitutes.

As far as “in depth”; I would think that a bare minimum would include going beyond a cursory perusal of headlines.

What I don’t understand is why does this bother you so much.

Once again, it doesn’t bother me at all.
What would lead you to presume it does?

It's really a crying shame when people think the one who's going to win an election is the one who raises the most money.

The same reliance can be found among those immersed in liberation theology on the one hand and White Christian Nationalism on the other.

I am reminded of the following ...

Yes… there are always nuances in any type of group of people

When you find a reliable source…. yes.

If you find my position isn’t “in-depth” - I welcome any correction with empirical and verifiable evidence.

Once again, it doesn’t bother me at all.
What would lead you to presume it does?

Because it seems like you want to make an issue out of something that shouldn’t be?

 

[Kenny]

But of course you don't tell us where you read that...

I mentioned a variety of sources… I’m sure you missed it with the abundance of posts.
