Ben Rhodes, former national security adviser to President Barack Obama tweeted, “If the leader of any other country said this, we would view it as a horrifying, authoritarian assault on human dignity. Which it is.”

On and on the list goes. Tweets and retweets of misinformation. Millions of Americans will believe what they have read and look on their neighbors as suspect.

Americans can tweet what they want. Reputable media personnel, however, are entrusted to be the conveyors of truth. They constantly declare their import with screeds about the First Amendment. Those in media who propagated this toxic lie should be fired.

And the Leftists in the media frame every election and are the only significant moderators of the candidate debates either party participates in. And sometimes those moderators slip the questions to Hillary Clinton in advance of the appearance.

A rigged debate is a rigged election.

It is a far bigger scandal than on Twenty-One where a contestant was being given the questions in advance to win a “jackpot” of cash.

>>The report comes in the form of a tweet making its way through the Twitter-sphere in which a user named Mark Elliott has posted a video of Donald Trump who he contends is referring to migrants at the border as “animals.” Elliott, who has almost 20,000 followers added the comment, “@realDonaldTrump on people asking for asylum “These aren’t people. These are animals.”

But but but that goes against Twitter’s rules, doesn’t it?

>>MSNBC’s Joy Reid posted, “Asylum seekers ‘aren’t people.’ They are ‘Animals’. This is particularly frightening language coming out of a person vested with the power of a presidential office.”

Presidential Candidate Hillary Rotten Clinton: “half of Donald Trump’s supporters are deplorables”

We seem to be witnessing the emergence of separate, competing views of reality in the Western world.

One of the great features of Western culture was the rapprochement between religion and science, lubricated by material plenty brought about by the framework of personal morality and discipline provided by religion, and the framework of scientific reasoning that allowed the extremely successful understanding of nature and its subsequent exploitation for the comfort of ordinary citizens.

Now one feature of that material plenty is the inexpensive and widespread control of vast amounts of information; this has made it possible for an entire subculture to trick itself into believing it can manufacture its own reality, a reality that would be seen as madness and quickly marginalized in the world of 100 years ago. The world of Alister Crowley and Helena Blavatsky, of the Thule Society and similar deluded modes of thought, is now capable of projecting itself across far larger populations than ever before by the means of modern information technology, a creation of science, of the system of reasoning that is the West’s greatest accomplishment.

That headline’s a grabber! We’re talking about the Party of slavery, infanticide, the Ku Klux Klan, voter fraud, segregation, coup d’état, lynching, racism—and its Propaganda Machine! What could possibly be worse than that!

Can’t we create a monstrous class action law suit against the MSM with over 60 million participants complaining about lies and un-fare treatment against us? Not a lawyer but I’m sure someone out there could come up with something great. Sue for every penny they own. I’d sign up in a heartbeat.

They have only one job and they cannot do that right.
