Frightful thought: Reality that the MSM may be aiding, abetting those who hate Freedom itself. Especially for American citizens, it must be remembered that the MSM does not just spew out the news; now, it spews out views, or the omission of news
Ecuador-This past Wednesday in Venezuela the head of the National Assembly, Vice President Juan Aguila, proclaimed himself to be the new president of his nation. This sparked a serious response from many governments of the world, most taking sides with the new president, or newly “elected” one, Nicolás Maduro. And, the unfortunate circumstance in this international incident is that the average citizen in the United States was not aware of the reality. This is not because it is not news, it is because the mainstream media in the U.S. seem to not consider it news of significance, which in and of itself, is another reason why the MSM is considered untrustworthy by an increasing number of average citizens.
Congress should take a field trip down south to see how real Socialism works.
It is a good point. That nation was a fairly decent country before 2000. It had a good oil production insuring travel, commerce, money for infrastructure and development.
The socialists came with Cuban backing and before long you had Jimmy Carter and Hollywood morons backing socialistic elections.
18 years sliding into despotic rule, ruined nation and ruined economy.
One thing you did not have was western media coverage.
There has been no coup, Maduro is still in charge.
You sure are spamming the board today, Sean.

I believe pissed off patriots stay patient just so long. Eventually, the Trump base will no longer be patient with Nanzi Box of Rocks, Schmucky Schumer, Adam Schitt, Airhead Cummings, Madd Maxine, Mulehead, and the rest of the DemonRATs and GOP Elites. Throw in the traitors in the MSM as well. If the political hacks think more than half this nation will quietly put up with their feces, I believe they’re more delusional that they sound now. What are your thoughts?
Be aware: avowed socialists/communists spin this as a failure of _capitalism_, claiming oil executives were robber barons stealing company profits.
“Congress should take a field trip down south to see how real Socialism works.“
Better yet, why don’t the Dem’s stay and do Socialism “the right way” - sort of a trial run or a test before they try it here?
They underestimate us.
I suspect they think we are a bunch of ignorant, fringe rubes that nobody takes seriously, because they don’t.
As typical bullies and thugs, they misunderstand our civility and restraint as weakness.
Better for them to underestimate us.
It’ll work in our favor when the time comes.
