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 quit FoxNews the night of the 2016 Republican debate and the wallace-kelly-baier gang-up on candidate Trump.
About the only things I miss are their atrocious screen graphics and incessant news alerts.
Ping.

I have no doubt the deep-state has communicated with FOX News management: do you want trouble with your FCC license? How about a long tax audit? Want to be removed from various cable carriers?
Then mention election fraud....
This may all be true…..
…..and we see much of this daily…
Bitt I draw the line in turning against Tucker!!
There are a LOT of situations in our country we wouldn’t know about except for Tucker
There are a LOT of voices who wouldn’t be heard unless Tucker gave them a venue for their voice!!!!!
THIS IS JUST WRONG…..TURNING ON HIM!!!!!
2000 Mules will be seen, heard, exposed!
Don’t shut down the ONLY strong voice we have on Fox
Bill Salmon and Paul Ryan.
They’re not going to allow ANY divergence from the narrative: big lie, baseless claims, etc.
I quit FOX News Election night 2020.
Tucker is not a conservative. He only plays one on TV for the money. Just like some many Rinos. One of my Senators is one of them.
Yet shut-in, TV addicted FReepers will continue to tune in to bloated swamp-toad Brett Baier.
Good post.
Have read Catturd but haven’t heard of Rising serpent. Love Dinesh and all those who think for themselves, use logic, and speak truth.
I stopped watching Faux news in November 2020 after they called Arizona. They are just part of the democrat party’s information warfare wing.
Fox news is the Washington Generals to the other news outlets Globetrotters.
Fat ass millionaire Tucker is not your friend.
This article is telling us exactly what a manipulative scumbag he is, yet you demand everyone continue to suckle him.
How dumb can you be.
I used to watch Fox for the chyrons. They stopped and so did I............
No true patriot should be watching FoxNews in any shape or form. I don't care how much one might like Tucker Carlson. FoxNews is a no-go.
Fox was a godsend for many years when there was nothing else, but I gave up on them after the 2018 elections.
I love Tucker, he is the most independent voice on television, but even he has lines he dare not cross.
Fox’s conservatism is mostly marketing. It was brilliant, position yourself 2 degrees to the right of your competition and you immediately capture half of the audience, while your competitors must divide their half among themselves. But they weren’t satisfied, especially as Murdock’s Democrat sons started to take over. They have steadily moved Fox left over the years, and placed hard lines on what their people are allowed to say. Remember when Gingrich was chastised on-air for criticizing Soros? And it was allowed to stand?
I agree with the article. 2000 Mules exposes Fox.
Doesn’t mean he is horrible or treasonous to conservatives - only that he took those threats against his family seriously, and understands they were not originated by a disorganized Antifa rabble.
Tucker says what he can, while doing his best to remain in the game and keep talking - just as many Republican politicians have chosen to do.
I also havent watched faux news since the election night when they called it for biden before midnight, even when trump was still leading.
As long as Foxnews has Laura Ingraham, I’m watching Foxnews.
Agree. Tucker was never on our side. It’s all about Tucker. I gave up foxnews when they couldn’t be honest about Bush/Cheney.
For real un-biased news, you have to turn to independent broadcasters:
