Dinesh D'Souza just exposed the treachery of the corporate media "conservatives"
=============================================================
Fox News has been on a collision course with its own audience since the stolen 2020 election — and you can almost feel the impact coming. The network has made so many dumb bets lately that it’s like watching a busload of trailer park residents get offloaded to play the nickel slots in Reno. All you can do is shake your head as you think: I know they’re all going bankrupt, and they’re already bankrupt. It’s been perfectly obvious for years now that Rupert Murdoch and his feckless sons turned against President Trump and actually helped Joe Biden — which is not just unforgivable. It’s unsustainable.
Why? Because it requires the silence of other prominent conservatives, and the short term memories of GOP voters, to allow Fox News to continue pretending that it’s a conservative news network. Guess what: GOP voters have not forgotten about Fox News calling Arizona early — and prominent conservatives are no longer interested in ignoring Fox’s treachery.
Case in point: Dinesh D’Souza dropped several bombshells on Twitter recently that illustrate that Fox News has nowhere left to hide.
This sort of thing would be unthinkable just a few years ago. D’Souza’s tweet virtually guarantees that he will never appear on any Fox News program again. He will be black-listed — a common practice at Fox (just ask Rudy Giuliani and Marjorie Taylor Greene and Peter Navarro). Dinesh knew all of this and did it anyway — and that should tell you something. (He even tagged a Fox producer on Tucker’s team to name and shame him.) Fox has lost its monopoly power on the Right, and it’s no longer immune from criticism by the conservative community.
That hasn’t stopped Fox News from trying to cut D’Souza out of his own documentary in order to present the work as its own. Just watch this explosive video.

Dinesh D'Souza @DineshDSouza Here's the backstory on why Tucker Carlson and his team instructed Catherine Engelbrecht of True the Vote not to mention '2000 Mules'. May 10th 2022

Fox News might as well be Helen Keller right now: it can’t see or hear anything about the stolen election. So it cannot allow Dinesh D’Souza’s new documentary “2000 Mules” to be mentioned on their shows because Fox News told its audience for the last 18 months that election fraud was a myth pushed by conspiracy theorists.
You do remember that, don’t you?
The real reason that “2000 Mules” is being ignored by the conservative corporate media and the liberal corporate media is because it’s true. The stolen 2020 election was the largest political interference operation ever conducted in America. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s charity spent more than $400 million to create a private election system in swing states — and he was hardly alone. It took massive coordination from both political parties and the corporate media and federal law enforcement and left-wing NGO’s to thwart the will of the American people in 2020.
The problem for both political parties and the corporate media and federal law enforcement and left-wing NGO’s is that they pulled it off but they got caught doing it. The fraud was much too pervasive and public to be kept secret. That’s why “2000 Mules” is creating such an awkward moment at Fox News. Our corrupt institutions have no idea what to do next. They can't admit to the fraud — but they also can't dismiss the evidence. (They tried for the last 18 months and it didn’t work.) They have to pretend now that nothing is happening and they have to keep pretending until 2024.
It’s one thing for the FBI to gaslight the American people. (That’s their specialty.) It’s a whole different matter for Fox News to spit in the face of its own audience for the next three years and call it rain. Fox executives are not going to allow Trump’s rallies to be aired on their channel; they’re not going to apologize for pushing Biden’s vaccine mandates; and they’re not going to allow election fraud to be discussed.
Add it all together: it’s a losing hand.
Fox News can bully GOP politicians and conservative influencers into silence because it threaten to blacklist them — but social media now makes that sort of “top down” control irrelevant. It’s easy to shut down Lou Dobbs — he’s under contract. How do you shut down Catturd? Or Rising Serpent? There’s too many people to bully now.
And the truth can break out from anywhere — even from the comments section of a tweet from an anonymous account.
Fox News doesn’t want to cover election fraud because the GOP establishment doesn’t want to find election fraud when it involves cheating to defeat Donald Trump. Fox News is the voice of the GOP establishment. (That’s why Rupert Murdoch has secret meetings with Bill Barr rather than Trump at his home during the Trump Administration.) Fox News is the voice of Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham and Mike Pence and Bill Barr and a bunch of other unpopular politicians who want rid of President Trump permanently.
In other words, Fox News is the voice of the uniparty regime in Washington.
That regime doesn’t have any GOP voters left. Look at McConnell’s poll numbers. Look at Pence’s poll numbers. Trump just endorsed a bunch of primary candidates and they just swept through the GOP establishment’s picks like Hunter Biden at a strip club. The GOP establishment has the voting machines, but it doesn’t have any voters.
Fox News is not on the side of the GOP voters — but they do rely on them. So they’re caught, and everybody knows it. That’s why Fox wants to strong-arm conservative influencers like D’Souza into letting it appropriate his content on voter fraud — they need to pretend to care for the sake of the audience. Just watch D’Souza’s podcast video again, and listen to what he tells you: Fox News knows that they “can crucify him” and so he has to “stay on the reservation” or he will be banned. Tucker’s executive producer (D’Souza claims) responded to D’Souza’s declining their strong-arm “offer” by telling D’Souza that “he was finished” and that Fox would “teach him a lesson.”
That’s a threat that had teeth before 2020. Now it just sounds like hollow threats from gutless people. The world has changed. The people who are going to get taught a lesson in the next few years are at Fox News.
I don’t demand anything!
Your language is crude and you are rude!
Hannity lost his mojo for me back in the 2000s.
Hannity's problem, as an entertainer/commentator is that his show has become too predicable. It's boring.
“ Fox News has been on a collision course with its own audience”
You imply there is some reciprocity, that the “audience” has the right to expect certain things.
This is a delusion.
I think that Fox News and Newsmax are cowards, big time!
The documentary 2000 Mules presents evidence of a well-planned effort at an unprecedented scale, to subvert a free and fair election.
This is organized crime.
The guilty Democrats, Republicans, and the media will NEVER concede that they stole the election. In an unprecedented left wing conspiracy, the Democrats, with help from foreign entities, manipulated electronic voting machines, financed ballot box stuffing with fraudulent ballots, corrupted social media suppressing information, compromised election boards, spineless Republicans who will not enforce the law, a failed Department of Justice for not investigating what happened, and other chicanery, stole the 2020 Presidential election.
There is a growing mountain of evidence that they are all pretending does not exist; it cannot be ignored forever.
Those people have carjacked our country and are in the driver’s seat.
We can only pray that the dam will break soon. Otherwise, our country may be doomed.
You forgot your /s tag.
That was IT for me too. I turned off the TV and never turned it on again. I finally gave it to some poor waitress that needed a TV.
Fox made a public display of retiring Bill Sammon and firing Chris Stirewalt just two months after the agitprop Arizona call, then Suzanne Scott quietly re-contracted Mishkin -- the actual call-maker -- in October of last year for 2022 and 2024.
This is FoxNews contribution and coverup to the 2020 electoral fraud.
"Mishkin, a longtime Democrat operative who backed Hillary Clinton in 2016 and donated to Barack Obama’s presidential campaign, quickly drew the ire of the Trump campaign for his Arizona decision.Trump won Florida handily, but almost all major news outlets said Arizona was too close to call and waited for days before making the call for Joe Biden."
You want to blame someone, blame Suzanne Scott. She neutered Chatsworth and is trying to do the same to Gutfeld.
I think a lot of people are going to have egg on their face when the whole 2000 Mules narrative shakes out.
I have watched it and was very underwhelmed.
I believe that in time it will be thoroughly discredited.
I do believe there was widespread fraud but I feel like 2000 Mules is to vote fraud what Pizzagate was to elite pedophile rings....an easily debunkable claim to distract from the real evidence.
I still like Carlson. If you watch his show, you know he is often putting information out there to greater audiences that almost no one else in the MSM is unless you count talk radio as MSM.
The problem is very probably with Fox corporate.
I don’t watch anyone else on Fox News besides maybe sometimes Gutfeld, when I’m in the mood for humor (usually toilet humor).
In the meantime, Outnumbered will be on Fox shortly, followed by Martha MacCallum and Neil Cavuto. Happy watching!
Yes, I had a rude knee jerk reaction to your calling me dumb, because you didn’t like my defending Tucker
I don’t demand anyone do anything…..
….I simply appreciate whatever Tucker exposes.
And I will apologize for calling you rude.
Tucker is good, but he’s not perfect.
True, we haven't perfected time travel. But then 2020 came along.
I believe many on the left - AND ALLEGED CONSERVATIVES - feel the same way about Trump. Lacking a time machine, the 2020-equivalent question was "would you steal the election by whatever means, to remove Trump from office? Because, ya know, he's Hitler."
This is the unspoken but likely truth about 2020...I bet most Bidet supporters (and fakers like Fox) sure as heck see lots of problems and believe that the election was fraudulent, and it is very likely that Trump won by a mile. But, because Orange Man Bad, these Guardians of Civilization grip onto whatever half-baked rationale for the results to keep the inquiry into irregularities stopped, and feel morally justified in stealing the election.
I get a Mel Giibson vibe from Dinesh (i.e. good heart but personal baggage), so I am not all-in on him. That said, if the man's movie raises legitimate questions, they should be addressed.
But they won't be addressed, because 2020 was a de facto going back in time to kill Hitler. And this new dogma that "anything goes if we are morally justified" is being played out with overturning Roe. Indeed, it is an extension of this article:
.... What (liberals) really want is liberal Sharia law, a secular theocracy. The minimum wage, gender equality, nationalized health care, and global warming—whatever their practical virtues—are not just expedient policy prescriptions. They are essential aspects of the liberal fatwa. Feminism, deconstruction, and gender theory are not just academic abstractions up for discussion among liberal academics: They are articles of their religious creed. Question them and you are not just wrong—you are a heretic.
c...for them, politics is the means to secular salvation...political failure is not just a setback on the road to a more stable society—it is a blow to their very worldview. Opposition to their program is not just wrong-headed, but evil.
I called him back in the 2000s about some homo thing that was going on and was rudely hung up on by the screener. Told me all I needed to know.
We used to watch Tucker every night after supper but no more since he became a Russian shill. It’s Newsmax for us now and very little Fox news.
“The ‘issue’ is never the ‘issue’. The ‘issue’ is ALWAYS the Revolution.” - David Horowitz.....................
“Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power.”
― George Orwell, 1984
“It was possible, no doubt, to imagine a society in which wealth, in the sense of personal possessions and luxuries, should be evenly distributed, while power remained in the hands of a small privileged caste. But in practice such a society could not long remain stable. For if leisure and security were enjoyed by all alike, the great mass of human beings who are normally stupefied by poverty would become literate and would learn to think for themselves; and when once they had done this, they would sooner or later realise that the privileged minority had no function, and they would sweep it away. In the long run, a hierarchical society was only possible on a basis of poverty and ignorance.”
― George Orwell, 1984
The dems will do this again in 2022. We need to watch every drop box and challenge those that try to deposit handfuls and dozens or hundreds of illegal ballots.
