(DCNF)—Democratic strategist James Carville on Thursday suggested that fact-checkers should focus their reporting on “Republicans” to assist in rescuing the U.S. Constitution.
In a June episode of his “Politics War Room” podcast, Carville advocated for media outlets to increase their “slanted” coverage of former President Donald Trump to prevent his reelection, claiming “the entire Constitution is in peril.” Carville reiterated this stance during a Thursday episode, shifting his focus to fact-checkers and expanding his advocacy to include Republicans generally, rather than just Trump.

“So let’s take the fact-check industry and let me tell you something, and I defy anyone to disagree on this: by 5 to 1, they would rather fact-check a misleading Democratic claim ’cause Republicans have so many … They want to say, ‘We’re just umpires, man, we just call it like [we] see it, we don’t really have anything.’ And, of course, there are times when Democrats exaggerate,” Carville said. “My thing is, how would you fact-check World War II? … They’re treating this like it’s just a normal time where you got shirts and skins and we just call ’em like we see ’em.”
“I think the whole industry has to decide: what is our role here? Is our role to be objective, impartial observers that report as accurately and fairly as we can, or is our role here to try to help save the Constitution of the United States?” he continued. “Because they’re two different things.”
New York Times non-fiction book critic Jennifer Szalai on Saturday published an article on Saturday titled, “The Constitution Is Sacred. Is It Also Dangerous?” featuring a subheading that reads, “One of the biggest threats to America’s politics might be the country’s founding document.” The article was a review of a University of California law school dean Erwin Chemerinsky’s “No Democracy Lasts Forever,” which was released Aug. 20 and asserts that the Constitution has become a “threat to American democracy” that is “beyond redemption.
Szalai claimed in her review that “Constitution worship” is potentially harmful to the American political system and referenced the arguments of Chemerinsky and other liberal legal scholars. The law school dean also advocated for a fresh Constitution on “Morning Joe” Friday, suggesting that failure to adjust the current document would lead the U.S. to “drift toward authoritarianism.”
George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley warned Wednesday that “a Harris-Walz administration would be a perfect nightmare for free speech.”
“Free speech is on the ballot. Not democracy,” Turley said. “Free speech is on the ballot.
