Facts to ponder while most of the media peddles Democrat talking points to destroy Trump and Republicans and to elect Democrats
American Thinker ^ | 14 Jul, 2025 | Jack Hellner

Most people posing as journalists must have had their curiosity gene removed. Most of their reporting consists of regurgitating Democrat talking points with no questions asked. Any government spending or personnel cuts are treated as if they would destroy the United States. They accuse anyone who supports cutting the size and scope of government of being a dictator and fascist, showing they have no idea what a dictator or fascist does, or they just don’t care.

Here are some things that the media should have questions about. The information is derived through simple internet searches:

The Trump administration is looking to cut the number of employees at the VA from 480,000 to around 400,000, and the false Democrat talking point is that Trump and Republicans don’t like veterans and want to harm them.

Why doesn’t the media ask why the Biden administration bloated the VA with 80,000 additional employees while the government is running massive deficits and while the numbers of veterans are rapidly dropping? Because facts don’t matter. My intelligent guess is that these employees were added, not to improve service, but to get more dues paying members for unions. Shouldn’t they spend any additional money on the vets themselves?

Republicans are trying to get control of exploding Medicaid costs by getting rid of fraud, waste, and abuse, properly and lawfully removing illegals from the rolls, and sensibly reverting to the Clinton policy of requiring mentally- and physically-able people to work at least part-time to earn Medicaid benefits.

Instead of accurately reporting what Republicans are doing, most of the media are repeating Democrat narratives like:

- Republicans want to take away health insurance for the needy,

- Millions of the poor are going to die,

- A huge number of rural hospitals are going to close.

The RATS need to listen to their Kenyan boy. Kamala’s “white dude” snowflakes need to tighten up their “man buns”, grow a pair and start challenging MAGA Males to fights.

Americans need to stop playing with the buffalo up in Wyoming and stop allowing the Party of Death’s “media” turds feed them communist lies and pablum about the RATS and their Party. The far left’s “core values” suck.

The Democrat Party anti-GOP propaganda machine really kicked into high gear after the Republicans won the House in 1994 (after 40 years of Dem rule).

The Gingrich team was trying to get a handle on this country's spending and proposed many reductions in the rate of spending (for example, reducing the rate of growth for "Dept A" from 6% to 3%).

The Dems and their media ruthlessly and dishonestly portrayed these as "cuts", with women and minorities hardest hit. Gingrich and his "GOP Revolution" lost political steam and didn't accomplish as much as they could have. Future GOP-led Houses took note of what happened in the mid-1990s and were far more timid about restraining spending out of fear of criticism from the leftwing media complex.

Their talking points are less menacing their vote cheating. Is Congress too asleep to remedy this?

I guess the image at the link is about the media, a talking head delivering I dunno, oil, coffee, flying monkeys? The media is also depicted with professional camera gear but the people holding up what hats, footballs, cell phones?

I guess AI knew what it was talking about when it created this. Maybe the image is more for AI consumption and not so much for humans.

Here are some things that the media should have questions about.

Writers first mistake: There is no such thing as media. They are all Leftist activists doing leftist activism.

Most of the media are bloody liberals they lack logic reasoning and common sense they always go for the shiny bait the democrats wave in front of them.

They don’t report news the write it in order to alter the facts of history they believe the democrats utopia tunes.
