This morning I went to a local Planet Fitness, where a bank of tv screens is arrayed across the front of the room.

On Fox News, they weren't covering the price of gas, or the administration's failure to get anything from China except for a couple of pandas, or the disastrous polling the Republicans are encountering, or the taxpayer-funded ads Trump is running for himself, or the fact that Jack Smith is finally going to testify before Congress tomorrow.

Nope.

Kayleigh McEnany, who found a paycheck and a pedicure for joining the bimbette rage-fantasy lineup at Fox, conducted an interview with THE LAWYER for the HOLDOUT JUROR in the Lindsay Clancy case.

Questions were raised, but they were "Fox" questions. Not questions like, "Why does a juror have a lawyer?", or "Do you think it's appropriate for you to be mouthing off on tv when this case may be retried?", or "Who cares?"

If you wonder why MAGA spins its wheels, going nowhere, knowing nothing, sinking into quicksand, living in a conspiracy theory, well, there's a simple explanation for that.

It's the way the contraption is designed.

For dimwits, for profit.
