Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Full-Tilt Left-Wing "Fact" Checker Glenn Kessler Takes the Buyout and Leaves the Washington PostAs you know, the Washington Post sent out an email telling its woke staffers that they should accept the "voluntary" buyout package if they felt they could not "align" with the Post's new non-woke agenda. The not-so-subtle implication was: Either take the buyout or you'll be fired and just get the customary two-weeks' paycheck. All of the left-wing propagandists are outing themselves, resigning because they know for a fact they cannot be objective and do not wish to be. They wish to be paid propagandists. The Washington Post will not be replacing Kessler with another "fact" checker. Apparently the Post's new management has realized that left-wing "fact" checking is just Democrat-Communist propaganda dressed up to look like neutral reportage. Kessler made that fact painfully clear, even to the water-heads of the Washington Post.![]() ![]() ![]() I interpret that this way: Kessler wanted the buyout because he knew he would be fired in August if he didn't take it, but "offered" to keep doing left-wing "fact" checks until they found a replacement for him. And management told him "No thanks, we're good, clear out your desk." Of course! You're a bitter left-wing propagandist who was paid to type up bitter left-wing propaganda talking points from the DNC. 'I still believe that, and I'm sorry to leave without a replacement lined up. But it's the right time for me. I hope The Post finds someone to carry on this important project.' ... 'When I started in 2011, there were only a handful of fact-checking organizations around the world, and I have been thrilled to watch the movement expand across the globe. So many of these brave and diligent fact checkers have become good friends,' Kessler said.Yeah I'll bet. I would bet that, besides being "friends," you're all open political allies, all are in the same slack channels coordinating the same talking points from the same "experts," aka "Democrat-Communist Party approved shills."

So I think a "fact checker" is needed... to fact check the Washington Post.
Otherwise the "fact checkers" should just be... the reporters, to follow up on statements of fact and/or interest. Kessler's whole job-description was unethical. It blurred reportage with editorial, under a byline that led readers to think it was impartial (it wasn't). Posted by: gKWVE at July 28, 2025 01:37 PM (5C538) 37

To take Kessler at face value and in good faith (I don't), he became a "Fact Checker" in 2011, and the "Fact Checking" function has taken off since then across outlets, while during the epoch of "Fact Checking" politicians (we know who he means) have told the most lies in political history and in spite of "Fact Checking" have succeeded wildly while doing so (including two improbable Presidential election successes).

Posted by: Axeman at July 28, 2025 01:41 PM (krQz2) 58
The rise in "fact-checkers" in the media exactly coincided with the public's ability to independently verify news reports.
And include information the media excluded. And that was unacceptable. My favorite fact-check from the media was the "Trump has lied 40,000 times." Oh how the lefties loved passing that around as truth. And like 17,000 of those were because they counted every time he said "build the wall and make Mexico pay for it" at every speech as another lie.

'When I started in 2011, there were only a handful of fact-checking organizations around the world, and I have been thrilled to watch the movement expand across the globe.“
I’m continually impressed, though not in a good way, at just how much horse-shit leftists can pack into a given sentence. They are not generally men of few words either. Just layers and layers of nonsense, carefully built up over the years, into things “everyone knows”, yet never seem to hold up under any sort of scrutiny. It’s uncanny. They always use the same playbook. Much more effective, or perhaps only effective, with a captured media. Which is what he’s getting at. During the McCarthy hearings in the 1950s, and the concurrent House Committee hearings on Un-American Activities, they played the “that’s been debunked” card early, and often. Attack the messenger. Don’t dispute the documents, just focus on “where did you get them”. Character assassinations. Investigate the investigators. They have a bag of tricks, tried and true, and refined for 21st century comms. Posted by: Common Tater at July 28, 2025 01:41 PM (FjeQO) 61

The piece itself should be its own "fact check".
Event X happened. Officials have made statements to that effect. Non official witnesses corroborate. Circumstantial events and documents also corroborate. That is how you know event X actually happened. If officials say X, witnesses say Y, and evidence says Z, well then it appears that you aren't ready to publish your little story, then, are you? There is no need for an external "fact check" if your journalism is journalism and not just ridiculous yellow rumor mongering. Posted by: Warai-otoko at July 28, 2025 01:48 PM (VoAdT) 97

But let me clarify, I'm calling for the release of all the Epstein information they got. But I also like what Tulsi and others are releasing. It's silly to say that this documentation only "distracts" from something the Democrats ignored for 4 years. It's just the type of thing the media can say to shallow in-flow thinkers and non-thinkers. I'm for the maximum bulk of information to be released. So, I'm willing to wait on an Epstein release.

Arguably the EC Knight decision was par for the course from the Fuller court as a bad decision. It is clear from the Founders that they intended the commerce clause to be force majeure over making the US a solid internal trading block. Since states already regulated commerce within their states, it could continue but when the feds exercise their power--it is and should be supreme. Gibbons v. Ogden is a cromulent decision explaining how it works. Posted by: whig at July 28, 2025 02:14 PM (ctrM5) 236

Posted by: Angzarr the Cromulent ======= I was an economics major back a ways, and the traditional treatment of tariffs was globalist in perspective. E.g. libertarian on open borders for trade and immigration and interventionist in internal economic regulations. None of those macroeconomic textbooks ever had the slightest relationship toward the real world but instead was entranced by their macro models and examining statistical entrails to determine how to diagnose our economy. Heck, my openly Marxist macro economics professor was more based in reality than the technocrats in that department. There were a few sound older professors in History of Economic thought and Public Choice aka public finance. It has gotten worse since then, including those at the Fed--they simply cannot comprehend that the world is more complex than their models and that history, as always, should be the guide.

"Over 200 illegal alien sex offenders have been arrested in the Houston, Texas, area in just the last six months alone. The 214 predators arrested by ICE “have been charged or convicted of a sex offense involving a minor,” according to a press release from the agency. ICE noted, “The 214 arrests were more than the Houston field office arrested during the entire 2024 fiscal year, when officers there arrested 211 illegal aliens charged or convicted of child sex offenses.” The agency credited the Trump administration’s “whole-of-government approach” for being able to arrest the dangerous illegal aliens by conducting “daily enhanced immigration enforcement operations” that targeted the “worst of the worst” for arrest and removal."

Yea. When you're outnumbered 10 to 1, you apologize and walk away. No matter what. Walk away. My dad taught me that when I was a kid. "This ain't like the movies, where Chuck Norris takes out 10 bad guys, one at a time. They never all just jump on him. In real life, they would." It was good advice, and probably saved me a few times.

280 272 A female Jem'Hadar? Do they allow her to take Ketracil White in Stat Fleet Academy? They just keep getting dumber
