The attack dogs are being put back into the Obama hibernation chambers and the dutiful lapdogs are back out, gently placed on the blanketed lap of Joe Biden and the puppeteers running him.
Let the era of the Great Fawning begin.
An Associated Press article was representative of the media coverage of Joe Biden’s pick for White House Chief of Staff, Ron Klain, describing his “gilded resume,” reporting that he has surprisingly “drawn praise from both sides of the ideological divide.” He’s just that good, darn it!
This is one part opinion, one part just flat wrong, all parts unfeigned Democratic operative PR. Get used to it. This will be the norm with the Biden coverage. No longer will you see the currently omnipresent phrase “without evidence” used with President Trump, a standard never before applied to presidents although it sure could have been with Obama, and likely all of them.
The opinion part is that his resume is “gilded” and a tremendous advancement over the outsider know-nothing rubes that Trump hired. Here is the actual lead:
“Ron Klain has checked all the boxes of a classic Washington striver: Georgetown, Harvard Law, Supreme Court clerk and Capitol Hill staffer, White House adviser and, along the way, of course, lobbyist and lawyer.”
Classic Washington striver with “deep knowledge” and “competence” the media assures us. But to 74 million Americans, probably more, it sounds a lot more like another Washington insider sucking off the bloated teets of the federal government for personal enrichment and who doesn’t know or care a rat’s rear-end about middle America. They are literally describing what we would think of as the ultimate swamp creature, but I doubt they even know it, the disconnection is so complete.
But hey, that is their partisan opinion. It’s still a free country, partially, sort of, for the moment. But it’s labeled straight news — which makes it deceitful, at best, just a lie at worst. Completely untrustworthy, as every poll shows the American public finds the media. Does the media writ large even care about its trustworthiness with its consumers anymore? Or is it the agenda uber alles?
And then there is just the factually untrue.
The evidence they cite for “drawing praise from both sides of the ideological divide”? Well none effectively. No elected Republican is quoted in Washington or elsewhere. Not one. Not even Mitt Romney. Only talk show host Hugh Hewitt tweeted that Klain was a good pick because Klain took pandemics from foreign nations seriously years ago. No matter. Still counts.
Follow Rod on Parler
The whole piece is a laundry list of leftist leaders, including Obama minion, or puppeteer, depending on who you believe, Valeri Jarrett, heaping praise on Klain along with AOC and other leftist radicals applauding the pick in the lapdog PR story. But hey, a talk show guy tweeted something positive, so…bipartisan support!
Like I said. Get used to the partisan fawning. Or move on from the mainstream media. But remember, they still hold enormous influence in this country, pretty much for worse, so they cannot just be discarded as irrelevant. They must be exposed as the partisan operatives they have become.
Biden is RIDICULOUS.
RIDICULE him.
Mercilessly.
The next 4 years are really going to suck.
This author is one of the nitwits who creates the environment of "acceptance" for the sheeple by using the minimal term of political definition: "leftist"...
He & those like him are propaganda enablers who make sure the sheeple do not recognize and/or use the correct term of definition for the vermin who are set to rule us into the far future...
All of these America-hating vermin are "communists", clearly defined by their own plans, tactics, policies, and ruthlessness...
They gonna lick him like a lollipop.
Well, some folks on our side fawned over Milo and he was a boo-foo boy.
Not like we haven't seen it before.
Exactly.
If Biden wins he should addressed as “His/Your Fraudulency” every time he comes out in public.
PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST, people...
Isn’t Klain the guy with big ties to the CCP?
And I’d go with 80 million, not the phony 74 million Trump voters number
If it happens that sleepy Joe is sworn in as President, at every single public appearance, he should be met with a crowd of protestors shouting “Theif, Theif”.
The Fourth Estate has morph into the Pravda for the Democratic Party. Looks like Fox News is joining them except for Carslon, Hannity and Ingraham who probably will be fired soon.
What do you think happens in four years?
We’ll be infiltrated and infested even worse by marxism, socialism, communism, leftism than we are now. The only hope would be to stem the degradation of our America, would be the 2022 midterms, if we could wrest the House away from the enemy.
But the damage they can do in 2 years, to the Constitution and Bill of Rights, will be prolific. If they get 4 full years, I shudder to think what’s coming.
So exactly HOW do we fight the press?
“Alternative media” helps immensely, having given us nearly all the truthful news we have consumed for the past few years, but we need more.
We need a conservative powerhouse in the media realm. Somehow.
