In their war on Trump, the press did the bidding of the Democratic Party, lost the story and lost their way.
On January 5th, Trump will give a rally in Iowa. He’ll do what he’s done for seven years as a hunted man - reassure his supporters that there is nothing to fear but fear itself.
Joe Biden, the President of the United States, will also give a speech that day and do what he has been doing since taking office: offer the people nothing but fear itself.
Biden’s message? Be afraid. Be very, very afraid of your fellow citizens. The guy who works at the gas station, the waitress, the bus driver, the construction worker, the teacher, the pilot — all of them, and any of them could be a Trump supporter. Fear them, shun them, and help us remove them from our country. You are with us, or you are against us.
They see their fight against Trump as something along the lines of the Civil War, World War II, and 9/11 all rolled into one. It would be funny if it wasn’t so terrifyingly real.
It’s no wonder his approval ratings are in the toilet and that Trump is polling ahead, even after everything they’ve thrown at him. The Democrats have lost touch with reality and no longer know the country they lead.
None of this would be happening, of course, if we had a legacy media that served any purpose other than to be what Devin Nunes called part of a “state-owned leftist enterprise” that also controls “everything—universities, nonprofits, bureaucracies, and the Beltway corridor.”
Since Trump was elected, the stories in the mainstream press have been nothing but an advent calendar of lies.
Lift a flap, and there’s Russiagate. Lift another flap, and there’s “Jacob Blake was unarmed and there to break up a fight.” Lift another flap, and there’s “Kyle Rittenhouse is a White Supremacist.”
Lift another flap, and it’s “Mostly Peaceful Protests.” Or it’s “Derek Chauvin was a racist who murdered George Floyd because he hates Black people.” Another flap, “The nation’s police are racists.”
Another flap says, “Vaccines stop the spread of COVID,” and another says, “COVID did not come from a lab.” Here are the “experts” trotted out to say protests are more important than COVID. Then, more “experts trotted” out to say bringing in the military to stop the protests (which were mostly peaceful) was fascism. Then, the experts said the Hunter Biden laptop was “Russian disinformation.”
Lift another flap, and it’s the biggest lie of all, “January 6th was an insurrection.”
No, it wasn’t. It was not planned, or ordered, or even desired by Donald Trump or his supporters. It was planned by someone who was not part of Trump’s rally and in fact did nothing to help Trump but only ended any chance he had to debate the election in the Senate.
The Democrats believe that January 6th is their get-out-of-jail-free card, that they can put the country through unending misery, but all they have to do is show that footage on a loop to keep their flock paralyzed by fear, and the votes will flood in.
The legacy press has been lying about January 6th for almost four years and counting. They live in constant fear of being accused of “normalizing” racism or “normalizing a fascist.” They did as they were told with their image, reputation, and maybe even their jobs at stake.
Salem Village in 1692 had no such thing as a free press. If the town leaders did not want something said or published, they would ban it and throw the perpetrator in jail. That’s how they were able to get away with hanging 20 of their townspeople, convicted on “spectral evidence,” witchcraft they couldn’t see but could only imagine.
After each hanging, they’d all meet up in the tavern to celebrate as one more battle against the Devil won.....
The press did the bidding of the Democratic/socialist/communist Party before anyone had heard the name Donald Trump.
Fake news is more rampant in the yellowstream “media” now than it was when we used to complain about it.
The mere mention of January 6th makes me want to throw up, due to the lies being told. Sadly, I realize there are millions of knuckleheads out there who eat up this propaganda like it’s gospel.
I consider the “media” a bigger enemy to America than the Messicans.
Yeah, they’ve been the enemy for a lot longer than that. Wally concrete turned me against them during VN.
Just as an aside: child star Ricky Schroeder, as an adult in November 2020, contributed $150,000 towards the $2 million bail fund for Kyle Rittenhouse, the 17-year old charged and later acquitted in the shooting deaths of two people during the August 2020 unrest in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
The multinational MSM is serving the NGOs.
As newspapers and other media started losing credibility with the people, subscriptions and viewer numbers collapsed.
In response to fewer subscribers/viewers , rather than choosing to include all citizens, papers doubled down to appeal to liberal 'elites' and downsized their newsrooms again.
Bye bye investigative reporters and thumb sucking editors and in came 'news packets' from democrat war rooms and 'leaks' from intelligence with axes to grind against conservative. And more citizens turned away and more newsroom downsized again... and on and on... And here we are now with a voluntary State Press... Pravdas on the cheap...
Dumb title!
The MSM became the enemy of America about 6-7 decades ago...
Recognize January 6th as “Ashli Babbitt Day”
I see this as Democrat overreaction. They deeply fear a *real* insurrection in the same way the planter elites were scared of, and overreacted to the possibility of, a slave uprising after John Brown’s raid on Harper’s Ferry. The Beltway elites know middle America *could* oust them, just like Louis XVI and his royal Versailles entourage got overthrown in 1789.
The yellow has never changed colors.
