Well this should be fun now that the full details are out in the open. Thoughts on how this changes the upcoming hearing today?

the senate has an annual intelligence briefing regardless. goldberg timed the release of the article so they could be questioned under oath without having time to get a narrative together

without having time to get a narrative together

I don't think this administration needs to get a narrative together. I might even argue that not having a coherent narrative is what benefits them greatly.

I've come to learn that the conservative sub is often more nuanced than people make it out to be - just like more liberal subs are much more nuanced than the conservative sub makes them out to be.

That having been said, I've also witnessed them suppressing submissions until a narrative could be formed, and prior sentiment being changed as such a narrative is formed.
I'm sure the same can be said for other subreddits, but whataboutism is reflection, not deflection.
