Our Radicalized Media: A Clear And Present Danger
American Thinker ^ | February 10, 2018 | Peggy Ryan

Posted on 02/10/2018 3:51:37 PM PST by Kenny

Most associate the term "radicalized" with ISIS.  But radical movements aren't limited to a religion.  A jihad is a crusade for a principle or belief involving struggle" and "resistance." 

The Washington establishment, the Deep State, and special interests have launched their own jihad, built on a battle cry to "resist."  

Today, calls to "resist!" echo through Congress as half of the House and Senate stage a mutiny against a duly elected president.

"Resist!" is the call to arms from Democrat leaders (Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama) and radical activist groups (Black Lives Matter, Antifa).  

More than 50 organizations have formed to "resist!" the Trump administration. 

Just as ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi calls on his followers to resist infidels, so this Washington cabal calls on its warriors to resist our government, to obstruct the president.

These machinations are not conducted in the shadows, not a secret plot carried out in the dead of night.  It's all in our faces.  Rush Limbaugh warns of a silent coup, Sean Hannity a "soft coup," Ambassador Bolton the "first coup d'état in [U.S.] history." 

Wow – a domestic plot to take down our government, and the best we can do is chronicle the uprising?  How did we get to the place where we witness a coup and tacitly accept it? In a word, the media, the left's super-soldiers, brought us to this point. 

This powerful propaganda tool is utilized to take the state message into every living room, bedroom, workplace, and gym, anywhere there's a TV or internet, omnipresent, Big Brother. 

Like Hitler's "Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda," the media control information, reporting only news that attacks our president and those working to exonerate him.  They bury news of lawlessness that implicates Democrats – Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, any member of the leftist cabal.

Ronald Reagan once said, "Don't be afraid to see what you see."

What do we see?

We see media drunk on power that tell us a man is a woman, that a baby is just a suspicious growth, a threat to the mother's health that must be removed. We see media that defend radicals who disrespect our flag, that justify trashing America. We see anti-American, globalist media that promote all other countries over our own.

We see media as co-conspirators working with the very traitors they're tasked to expose, a press that publishes fake news and outright lies, that withholds the real news that would indict its comrades.

The fifth-column leftist media gives aid and comfort to the enemy. The Constitution has a word for that. And that word is not excused by the First Amendment.

But no one, not one, will mention Disney nor Comcast — the major facilitators of the ‘Radicalized Media.’

And under reports news, too, hiding the most relevant facts while running the narratives ad nauseum for the news cycles.

Yes, a lie created by the head of the opposing party that lost the election. Most Americans should be calling for Hitlery’s head on a pike.

If Donald Trump actually has people arrested that will take the wind out of their sails.

That’s what you get when you pick your personnel from the same “garbage can of humanity” as the Progressive/NWO.

“More than 50 organizations have formed to “resist!” the Trump administration.”

And not a single one of them would have a clue how to set up a rifle team, let alone a squad, to “resist!”

I’m finding the leftist sweetpeas and their call to fight very funny.

Come and get your medicine, you simpering wimps...

Conservatives talk about the FBI/DOJ being weaponized under Obama.
The media has been weaponized for much longer.

And no solutions are offered.......

Education: Massive investment in logic and rhetoric at all levels in all learning institutions. We have got to learn how to think correctly.

Coverage of government: Priority goes to independents. No conglomerants in the WH Press Corps.
