Of all the media's spinning on the second assassination attempt of former President Donald Trump, the most atrocious examples to emerge so far may be from NBC News.Last night, the outlet described the latest attempt to assassinate the 2024 Republican presidential nominee as the "Trump golf club incident." As of Monday morning, the NBC News article on alleged would-be assassin Ryan Routh's arrest remains the site's top trending story.Why is NBC News describing a second assassination attempt against President Trump as a “golf club incident” ???? pic.twitter.com/RnGWWp5nqM— Abigail Jackson 🇺🇸 (@abigailmarone) September 16, 2024Matt covered how NBC News host Lester...

NBC News anchor Lester Holt was quick to blame former President Donald Trump — along with his running mate, Senator JD Vance (R-OH) — for the heated campaign rhetoric that he ultimately linked to what appears to be a second assassination attempt on Trump’s life. Holt suggested — just hours after United States Secret Service agents stopped the second would-be Trump assassin in eight weeks — that comments from both Trump and Vance about the impact of a massive influx of Haitian migrants on a small Ohio town had led not only to that but to threats against hospitals and...

A New York Times report was discovered on Sunday mentioning Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, who was caught targeting Trump, armed with a scoped AK-47 rifle in West Palm Beach before shots were fired by the Secret Service. The New York Times was actually in contact with and interviewed Routh for their article. In an oddly coincidental Truth Social post, just hours before the attempted shooting, Trump said, “THE FAILING NEW YORK TIMES IS A TRUE THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!” https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/113142180434016846 The article from the Times ties the would-be shooter to nutbag MSNBC terrorism analyst Malcolm Nance, who once called for ISIS...

MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart said Friday on “Chris Jansing Reports” it was “frightening” that roughly half the country supports former President Donald Trump. Capehart said, “I’ve been watching Donald Trump’s press conference since before we were doing the segment before you jumped to it as the Q&A portion. I have to tell you, listening to him and particularly that answer, one word that comes to mind is reprehensible. A former president of the United States isthat basically poo-pooing the concerns of the elected officials in the affected city, in Springfield, Ohio. The Republican governor of the state debunked this and...

On the night of the debate – when late-term abortions would again be dismissed as a phony issue – NBC Nightly News ran a promotional piece about Colorado late-term abortionist Warren Hern, who has been a radical pro-abortion crank for 50 years. Lester Holt began: “And tonight we visit one state where women are traveling to obtain a rare and often misunderstood form of the procedure later in pregnancy.” It’s “often misunderstood” when you kill a baby in utero with an injection to the heart and then remove the corpse. Reporter Dasha Burns promoted abortion in this one-sided piece, focused...

Former President Donald Trump, during Tuesday’s presidential debate, repeated a baseless and sensationalist claim about Haitian immigrants in Ohio eating dogs and other pets. "They're eating the dogs, the people that came in, they're eating the cats," Trump said during an answer to a question about immigration. "They're eating the pets of the people that live there, and this is what's happening in our country, and it's a shame." Trump's answer was among the most extraordinary of the first 30 minutes of the debate: a former U.S. president spreading an internet rumor — one labeled by some of his critics...

Pro-Palestinian students rejoiced on August 29, 2024, when San Francisco State University (SFSU) announced it would divest from three arms manufacturers because they allegedly fail to meet "human rights standards."NBC Bay Area reported that the three companies are Lockheed Martin, Palantir Technologies, and Leonardo.The divestment decision followed weeks of protest from pro-Palestinian students. The students "camped out and protested for three weeks in a nationwide call for universities to disclose and divest from what they categorized as companies profiting from Israel’s occupation of Palestinian land and the war in Gaza.Caterpillar — a heavy equipment manufacturer, not an arms manufacturer —...

(May 5, 2024) — INTRODUCTION It is frequently argued by opponents of the “two-citizen parents” requirement of Emer de Vattel’s definition of a “natural born Citizen” (“nbC”) found in Book 1, Ch. 19, § 212 of The Law of Nations (1758), that the requirement “is nonsense.” Indeed, the 2015 article purporting to “resolve” the meaning of the nbC term (“C&K article”) by former high officials in the Department of Justice – Solicitor General Paul Clement and Acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal – completely rejects the relevance of the de Vattel nbC definition by ignoring any discussion of de Vattel or...

Former President George W. Bush does not plan to endorse a candidate for president, his office told NBC News on Saturday. When asked whether the former president or his wife, Laura, would endorse a candidate or make public how they will vote, Bush's office said "no." "President Bush retired from presidential politics years ago," the office added. The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A spokesperson for Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign declined to comment but pointed to the campaign's Republican outreach efforts. Bush's former vice president, Dick Cheney, announced on Friday that he would...

This deranged segment on msnbc claiming everyone from the creators on Tenet to members of the house and senate need to be prosecuted and they tie it up w this UNREAL banger to criminally go after @elonmusk “He has to moderate his speech in the interest of national security” This is insane!

The leftist extremism of ABC, CBS, CNN and NBC (and its cable affiliate MSNBC) is well-documented. However, what rarely gets mentioned is that the woke reporting emanating from these networks aligns with that of the leftist ESG asset manager giants that own the biggest portion of their stock.

On August 26, Schuyler County, NY resident and registered voter Montgomery Blair Sibley uploaded his “Complaint for Declaratory Relief” filed August 12 in New York Supreme Court naming as defendant Kristen Zebrowski Stavisky “solely in her official capacity as Co-Executive Director of the New York Board of Elections and New York’s Chief Election Official.” Zebrowski Stavisky was appointed in 2021 to the Co-Executive Chairman post by Gov. Kathy Hochul and later to “Chief Election Official,” according to her official biography. In his complaint, Sibley, a former practicing attorney, alleged “that Kamala Harris is ineligible to appear on the November 5,...

Former Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA) said Tuesday on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” that he did not believe Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris had suddenly become a “centrist.” Toomey said, “We need Republican control of the Senate and that is absolutely essential. If the other side runs the table, then Katie bar the door, they they will repeal the filibuster and they will be dragged by their left wing, which is clearly in charge now. I think Kamala Harris proved that with her vice presidential selection. It is huge tax increases, it’s probably some version of Medicare for all and...

Former Sen. Pat Toomey (R), who represented the key state of Pennsylvania for 12 years in the Senate, says he won’t vote for former President Trump or Vice President Harris in November’s election. Toomey noted during an interview on CNBC that he voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020 but can’t bring himself to support Trump again because of his efforts to overturn the results of the last presidential election. “When you lose an election and you try to overturn the results so that you can stay in power, you lose me. You lose me at that point,” Toomey said...

Kristen Welker, the moderator of NBC’s weekly Sunday political interview show “Meet the Press,” falsely asserted that Vice President Kamala Harris met with the Gold Star families of the 13 American troops who were killed during the ill-fated US withdrawal from Afghanistan. Welker made the comment as she interviewed Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), who took the Biden-Harris administration to task for their treatment of the families. Cotton noted that Harris, the Democratic nominee for the presidency, had not yet met with the kin of the 13 service members who were killed when a suicide bomber detonated an explosive device at...

The tragic news broke Saturday night that the Israel Defense Forces had recovered six bodies of hostages executed by Hamas. One of them was a 23-year-old American named Hersh Goldberg-Polin. But leave it to CNN to add another entry into the "you can't hate the media enough" files, because their headline initially stated that Goldberg-Polin had "died." Of what? A disease? An accident? They didn't say. This is why so many people no longer trust the corporate—lamestream, mainstream, whatever you want to call it—media because, quite simply, they lie. In this case, you could argue that they didn't technically lie...

NBC News’ Meet the Press admitted Sunday that anchor Kristen Welker had been incorrect to say that Vice President Kamala Harris had met the families of Americans killed in Afghanistan — though it also botched the correction. In an interview with Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), Welker challenged the Republican over former President Donald Trump’s visit last week to Arlington National Cemetery to pay his respects to the 13 fallen American soldiers on the third anniversary of the terror attack on Abbey Gate at the international airport in Kabul. The Harris/Walz campaign accused Trump of politicizing the memorial, amid controversy over...

Former President Donald Trump exposed an NBC reporter in front of a live audience, accusing the network of failing to cover the real issues that are affecting everyday Americans.

Coach Prime can’t take the heat. The University of Colorado has informed the Denver Post that coach Deion Sanders will no longer answer questions from columnist Sean Keeler. Colorado attributed the decision to “a series of sustained, personal attacks” in Keeler’s coverage of the program. Pressed for evidence to support the conclusion, a staff member in the Colorado sports information office said the Keeler has used phrases such as “false prophet,” “Deposition Deion,” “Planet Prime,” “Bruce Lee of B.S.,” “the Deion Kool-Aid” and “circus” in reference to Sanders and the program. The fact that Colorado felt compelled to issue a...

PHOENIX — Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s campaign told a Pennsylvania court that he will be endorsing former President Donald Trump, ahead of his own Friday afternoon announcement putting to rest a tumultuous independent presidential campaign. The filing in Pennsylvania, in a lawsuit related to a legal challenge to his own ballot access in the state, said that Kennedy was withdrawing from the ballot "as a result of today's endorsement of Donald Trump for the office of President of the United States."
