Tuesday News Roundup: America is in the Midst of a Fascist Takeover
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 01/12/2021 5:58:00 AM PST by EyesOfTX

We are unable to confirm reports that it is playing an endless loop of “Stairway to Heaven.” – Scientists revealed yesterday that they have discovered an FM radio signal emanating from the Jupiter moon of Gannymede:

The carnage at Fox News continues. – Barely a year ago, Fox News dominated the cable news landscape. It regularly fielded the 10 highest-rated programs in the space, and CNN seldom had an hour-long segment rated in the top 25.

That’s all changed now, as the latest weekly ratings clearly demonstrate:

Fox primetime shows like Tucker Carlson and Sean Captain Tick Tock Hannity formerly drew 5 million viewers every night, often topping the competition at CNN and MSNBC combined. Today, Bret Baier, Martha MacAllum and Laura Ingraham are getting stomped by the lunatics at Mornng Joe.

This is a crisis. So, what does Fox management decide to do? Why, re-shuffle the lineup by moving the same failing hosts to different time slots. Check out this story at US News and World Report:

Both Fox and CNN announced lineup changes Monday, as is often the case for news organizations with a new president about to take power. CNN’s Jake Tapper and Fox’s John Roberts are among those taking on new roles.

Starting next Monday, Fox’s 7 p.m. hour will be led by a rotating group of opinion hosts, with a permanent host to be named later. For years, first with Shepard Smith and then with MacCallum, Fox has stressed news instead of opinion in that hour.

Yet MacCallum, who had been comfortably ahead in the ratings, has slipped behind both MSNBC and CNN at 7 p.m. since the election, the Nielsen company said. That’s also when Newsmax has seen its greatest success with a strongly pro-Trump show hosted by Greg Kelly.

In fact, Newsmax issued a statement that its improved daytime and 7 p.m. ratings since the election has triggered changes at Fox.

“The Fox is on the run,” Newsmax said.

Fox denied that Newsmax had anything to do with its moves, and pointed to a quote from an October article that said schedule changes were being considered. While Newsmax has sharply increased its audience since the election, with viewers spurred on by President Donald Trump, Fox routinely has more than triple Newsmax’s viewers.

“Chris Ruddy is irrelevant,” Fox said in a statement, referencing Newsmax’s CEO.

Still, there’s been a dramatic change in Fox’s daytime position.

[End]

This is basically just shuffling the deck chairs on the Titanic at this point. Fox News hit an iceberg when it prematurely called the state of Arizona on Election Night and alienated an enormous portion of its viewer base. Reassigning the same old stale hosts to new time slots isn’t going to plug that massive hole in the engine room.

Obviously, Fox management has no idea what to do about the emergency it created, and that could not have happened to a nicer bunch of people.

We are in the midst of a fascist takeover of our country. – That’s what this is, folks. The first thing any budding fascist junta does is to destroy the freedoms of assembly, religion and speech. The next thing the junta does to the population it wishes to dominate is confiscate its guns.

The Democrat Party, with the willing assistance of the corrupt news media and Big Tech monopolies, is already well down this road. They have successfully used the COVID-19 pandemic to dramatically limit the freedoms of assembly and religion, and they are in the process of using last week’s Capitol riot as the lynchpin for destroying our freedom of speech.

As the Big Tech crackdown on conservative thought and speech has been taking place, the puppet masters for China Joe Potato Head Biden have had their elderly marionette out there talking about his plans to destroy the National Rifle Association, and thus the 2nd Amendment. To facilitate that effort, Biden plans to appoint a leftist radical to head up the Civil Rights Division at his reconstituted “Justice” Department. Her goal will be to ensure that the guns are taken from the evil white people first.

No, I’m not kidding.:

From the story at DailyWire:

Biden has openly called for banning semi-automatic firearms, high capacity magazines, and has said that he wants to tax owners of semi-automatic firearms under the National Firearms Act for weapons that they already own. An NFA tax stamp costs $200 per item.

Biden’s remarks come after national tensions escalated last week following a violent riot that broke out at the Capitol as Congress was certifying the Electoral College results. Biden also made remarks that were widely deemed racist and sexist following the incident when he announced that “priority” for economic business relief would be made in part based on race and gender.

Adding to the headache that Biden faces is a report from Fox News on the woman that he has nominated to head the civil rights division at the Department of Justice.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson highlighted previous remarks that Kristen Clarke has made that were widely panned online as racist.

Carlson read off the following quotes from Clarke:

“Please use the following theories and observations to assist you in your search for truth regarding the genetic differences between Blacks and whites.” “One: Dr. Richard King reveals that at the core of the human brain is the ‘locus coeruleus,’ which is a structure that is Black, because it contains large amounts of neuro-melanin which is essential for its operation. Two: Black infants sit, stand, crawl and walk sooner than whites. Three: Carol Barnes notes that human mental processes are controlled by melanin–that same chemical which gives Blacks their superior physical and mental abilities. Four: Some scientists have revealed that most whites are unable to produce melanin because their pineal glands are often calcified or non-functioning. Pineal calcification rates with Africans are five to 15 percent, Asians 15 to 25 percent and Europeans 60 to 80 percent. This is the chemical basis for the cultural differences between Blacks and whites. Five: Melanin endows Blacks with greater mental, physical and spiritual abilities — something which cannot be measured based on Eurocentric standards.” “Let that sink in. ‘Melanin endows black people with greater mental, physical and spiritual abilities,’” Carlson continued. “No, this isn’t an editorial from the Final Call, Louis Farrakhan’s free newspaper. It’s a direct quote from the person Joe Biden is about to put in charge of our country’s civil rights laws. Even at Harvard, crackpot theories like this were considered deranged and dangerous. After an outcry on campus, Kristen Clarke suggested that she didn’t ‘necessarily’ believe what she had written. The Harvard Crimson, a left-wing paper, did not buy that explanation. ‘Well does she or doesn’t she?’ wrote the editors. ‘So far, she has given us every indication that she does.’”

[End]

The next four years are going to be a time of unending crisis for our nation, brought to you courtesy of the aspiring fascist junta that is the Democrat Party.

Don’t shoot me, I’m just the messenger.

That is all.

The US Military has been very silent with the recent spiralling into China’s hands. Watch for a reset, as they will not allow the USA to fall.

At least now it's out in the open for all to see.

We've been trying to tell people about them for at least 50 years.

They finally feel comfortable enough to take off their masks.

Biden’s Ties To 5 Major Tech Companies (rewards accomplices)
Daily Caller ^ | 1/11/2021 | Chuck Ross / FR Posted on 1/11/2021, 7:04:07 PM by EBH

At least 14 people who (gag) President-elect Joe Biden picked to serve either in his administration or to advise his transition have worked for the Big Tech firms that cracked down on President Donald Trump and Parler, a social media site popular with conservatives.

<><> Apple’s top lobbyist was a chief adviser to the Biden transition team.
<><> A former Facebook executive will serve as staff director in the Biden White House,
<><> a former Twitter executive will serve as chief spokesperson for the National Security Council under Biden.
<><> Current and former Facebbok and Twitterexecs fill other positio ns in the incoming Biden admin, or his transition team.
<><>Google and Amazon execs are in the incoming Biden admin, or on his transition team.

The five tech giants all took action this week against Trump and Parler, the social media site, in response to riots at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday.

I fear that the takedown of the 2nd amendment will go faster than that. The “insurrection” worked so so well in getting rid of our 1st amendment, I expect a redo. An armed conflict between staged “Pro-Trump” actors and police should do the trick.

I started watching Greg Kelly on Newsmax. He is an unabashed American patriot and feels exactly like many of us on FR do. I recommend everyone at least give him a try. He is followed by Grant Stinchfield and much of the same can be said about him.

Please, no comments about Chris Ruddy. There are too many of FR out to destroy the Good because they are not the Perfect. When someone finds the Perfect, let the rest of us know.

I love Dave Blackmon but he’s given up on America and President Trump. He is in for a big surprise. Donald Trump has no intention of leaving office. He has telegraphed that sentiment to us repeatedly in recent days if we are astute enough to recognize it.

Turn off the television folks. They are all joined at the hip with the communist cabal trying to destroy our country. Do you really think Donald Trump is going to meekly leave office on January 20th? Get real! He knows its kill or be killed. He knew this when he came down the elevator in 2015. If Trump were to leave office he would likely be dead in 6 mos or less. God knows what would happen to his family. This is a fight for our Republic.

Joe Biden will never be President.

“The US Military has been very silent with the recent spiralling into China’s hands. Watch for a reset, as they will not allow the USA to fall.”

The left has taken control of that too. And that will only accelerate as Biden appoints his leftist cronies to the top posts. I wouldn’t put too much hope in the military rescuing us.
