    The Miami-Dade Police Department has launched an investigation and announced disciplinary action against a pair of officers after body-camera footage captured an officer striking a Black woman in the face. Footage of the incident, which was shared on Wednesday on social media, showed a woman talking to a pair of Miami police officers at the Miami International Airport. At one point, the woman approached an officer, standing just inches away from him. SNIP The officers — Anthony Rodriguez and Ricardo Alvarez — were told that the woman, Paris Sharon Anderson, had gone behind an American Airlines rebooking desk and that...

    Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said Monday The New York Times is a "famous outlet, but lacking in ethics" after the newspaper ran a report detailing disparities between state and federal coronavirus death tallies in the country. "In this case it's clear they didn't do the work, that they acted in a biased manner, lacking ethics. So let's not allow ourselves to be blindsided, if we don't lie, don't steal and don't betray the people there's nothing to fear, even if it is The New York Times," López Obrador said at his daily press conference. The Times report cited...
  • Media Blame Trump For Increased Poison Control Calls That Started Two Months Ago

    On Friday, reporters claimed President Trump suggested Americans inject themselves with disinfectant. Shortly after, corporate media began reporting an increase in poison control center calls about bleach and other household cleaners. The only problem? The increase in calls started nearly two months before Trump’s comments. Mainstream outlets, such as the New York Daily News, blamed the uptick in calls to the New York City Poison Control Center on President Trump’s comments about disinfectants. NYC Poison Control Center saw 30 cases of exposure to Lysol, bleach & other cleaners in 18 hours after Trump’s suggestion disinfectant might be used to treat...

    Reporters foolishly act like liberal political activists. Donald Trump has long demonstrated a knack for getting his political opponents to make fools of themselves. Sen. Marco Rubio learned this the hard way on the 2016 campaign trail when he tried to out-Trump Mr. Trump. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and former CIA chief John Brennan got caught in the trap last week. Mr. Cuomo took issue with Mr. Trump’s campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again,” telling an audience full of Democrats that “we’re not going to make America great again—it was never that great.” The audience booed. Mr. Cuomo was...
  • Malpractice: The Journalistic Assassination Of Ryan Lochte

    Man, that Ryan Lochte, what a jerk! Am I right? Of course I’m right. It’s backed up by journalism. There isn’t a news outlet on the planet that hasn’t carried a story about how Lochte and three other swimmers no one bothers to name got hammered at the Rio Olympics, trashed a bathroom at a gas station, and traumatized innocent security guards, women, children, and plant life alike. But what if it didn’t happen that way? What if, with the exception of a few minor details flubbed in a drunken haze, Lochte and his fellow mermen told the truth? That...

Fights nearly broke out, doxing and vandalism threats were issued to Trump supporters, Latino students were shoving the Trump students out of the way, another student encourages others to join anti capitalist groups, they shut down and silenced the pro Trump group, mocking their talking points, whined about TRUMP chalk on the sidewalk, and it ends with the socialist students gloating about shutting it down and promising to come back if Students For Trump holds another...

    We know the media has absolutely no integrity and would never ask any of these questions. Nevertheless, here are some questions the media should be asking Barack Obama. Why aren’t you talking about the looming problem of a worldwide economic recession? Since Spain is collapsing before our eyes what are your plans to contain the damage it will cause to Europe and eventually to our economy. What are you doing to counter Turkey’s efforts to pull NATO and of course America into war with Syria? Why do you seem unconcerned that the national debt has increased by a TRILLION DOLLARS...

    Wow. I said it the other day and I say it again. What in the world is come over Charles Krauthammer? Some of you guys said he sees the "writing on the wall". Maybe. However, this is the 3rd time in the last few days that I've counted where he's made some really refreshing commentary. First he says Gov. Sarah Palin has a good chance of winning the Presidental election & he didn't diss her. Then, he slammed Obama for "summoning" the Speaker of the House to the White House and schooled Obama that the three branches of government are...

    USnews Book Review ^ | June 16, 2011 | Paul Bedard
    The liberal bias of the mainstream media tilts so far left that any outlets not in that political lane, like the Drudge Report and Fox News Channel, look far more conservative than they really are, according to a UCLA professor's new book out next month. In a crushing body blow to the pushers of the so-called "Fox Effect," which claims the conservative media is dragging the left into the center, UCLA political science professor Tim Groseclose in Left Turn claims that "all" mainstream news outlets have a liberal bias in their reporting that makes even moderate organizations appear out of...

    A chief Republican critic of a controversial U.S. anti-gun-trafficking operation was briefed on ATF’s “Fast and Furious” program last year and did not express any opposition, sources familiar with the classified briefing said Tuesday. Rep. Darrell Issa (Calif.), who has repeatedly called for top Justice Department officials to be held accountable for the now-defunct operation, was given highly specific information about it at an April 2010 briefing, the sources said. Members of his staff also attended the session, which Issa and two other Republican congressmen had requested. Fast and Furious targeted Mexican gun traffickers but was linked to the killing...

    Inside story of Michelle's trip First lady took Spain vacation with 'a dear friend' whose father recently died Michelle Obama and daughter Sasha returned from Spain on Sunday, a vacation at a lavish hotel on the Mediterranean coast that triggered her first controversy since becoming first lady. I'm told she made the trip because she promised one of her closest friends, a longtime Chicago pal who just lost her father, she would spend time with her.

    What is worse about Obama’s message today? That he obviously wants to change the US Constitution, or that he thinks we are all stupid? I want to share with you the email i received from Barack Obama’s Organizing for America. Yesterday morning, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that corporations can spend freely in federal elections. It’s a green light for a new stampede of special interest money in our politics, giving their lobbyists even more power in Washington. Now, every candidate who fights for change could face limitless attacks from corporate special interests like health insurance companies and Wall Street...

Well, CNN is more standard and it seems like everyone in this nation takes this giant news outlet at face value. It's time we attack and attack now. Read on...

    Mainstream media forgot how to spell Muslims Scoop! Africa was not is not by nature "Muslim" The recent bloody 'ramadan' festivities in Liberal Europe, such as setting ablaze a disabled woman among other vicious rampage by the well organized Muslim thugs through Imams & other "adults", was quickly blurred, even masked.Journalists have found so rapidly the cosmetic formula, no "Muslims", or "Arabs", some "people" from a "continent". When did Muslims became N. Africans, or worse, N. Africans as all "Muslims"? When Terrorists became "insurgents".When mass murderers became "guerilla fighters".When Hamas has also a 'political' wing (whatever that means).When violent...

    It all started in 1988. President Ronald Reagan's second term was ending, Americans were ready to launch the presidency of George H.W. Bush, and in Sacramento, California, a "loveable little fuzzball" stepped behind a microphone, replacing Morton Downey, Jr, and giving us his brand of conservative truth. It was astonishing. It was exhilarating. And it was unheard at the time. Before 1988, Americans had been treated with the nightly news from the "Big Media." The "Big Media" owned the airwaves of our televisions. Every morning, noon, and night we were fed stories, pictures, and commentary from a leftist press. A...

    According to a Kerry campaign source, senior campaign advisers tasked two Washington-based campaign staffers to vet the recently published Unfit for Command. "The purpose was to compare what that book had with what we had on file from Senator Kerry," says the campaign source, who said that the research project developed more than 75 instances where Kerry's recollections, previous remarks, or writings conflicted with the book's reporting. "We took some of the most glaring examples, like the Christmas in Cambodia story, and presented them to senior staff, and we assume that those things were put in front of Senator Kerry,"...
