When Rachel Maddow got her hands on the first page of one of former President Donald Trump’s tax returns it was a “STOP THE PRESSES!!!!” moment for the leftist media. All that showed was Trump had paid a ton in taxes that year, but the left would not be bound by reality and widely speculated about what the rest of the return, the pages they’d never seen, could possibly say. That level of curiosity – obsession, really – has not only waned when it comes to Joe Biden’s finances, it has dried up completely.
The current occupant of the presidency regularly insists, as recently as the past week, he was the “poorest member of Congress” during his Senate career. The intrepid reporters, likely with offices littered with awards, have never expressed any curiosity as to how someone so “poor” could afford multiple mansions in his home state. Joe Biden is blessed with an incurious press who wear the Democrats uniform under their business suits.
But even the most loyal media lapdog has to be a bottom, don’t they? A point at which they simply have to acknowledge reality and at least entertain the possibility that their leader could be less than honest, to put it in terms they might be comfortable with.
For the left, however, there is no bottom. There are still members of the press who view Bill Clinton as a champion of women’s rights and Hillary as one of the biggest boosters of women, even after the facts, allegations, and managing the “bimbo eruptions.” Some people live so far up their own rear end that they’ve gone full circle, with their heads back up their own heads again. That’s where journalists live.
No, there’s something else going on here.
When Joe Biden is paying the legal bills of Hunter’s overseas business adventures, don’t you think the subject of what these legal bills were for might come up? Joe took in a lot of money after he left the White House, enough to buy a third mansion, but it wasn’t billions. After taxes, laying out almost a million is going to leave a mark.
But we’re supposed to believe they never discussed it. Joe and Hunter never talked about his Chinese communist government business partners? Or any of this other foreign business partners, many of whom Joe had met with at private dinners, parties, and golf outings, not to mention the guy who’d gone to the White House 19 times, even meeting with then Vice President Biden at least one of those times. Did Joe think he was meeting with Hunter’s partner in his Chinese businesses because he was just a friend of his kid?
Joe is dumb, but not that dumb.
It’s clear Joe Biden lied to the American people, repeatedly. And it’s not even a significant portion of the question and answer session at the White House daily press briefing. If it’s not a reporter from Fox, you can pretty much count on the question not being asked. They simply don’t care.
There are some questions people don’t ask because they know they won’t like the answer, and there are questions so-called journalists won’t ask because they already know the answer and they don’t want anyone else to hear it.
The Democrat Media Industrial Complex circled the wagons around Joe years ago, but that circle is breaking down. Can they plug those holes? Can they ignore the facts staring them in the face long enough to limp past the midterms at least?
When Joe Biden’s financial disclosure forms and tax returns show a $5.2 million difference, and not a single journalists or media outlet noticed before now because they didn’t bother to look, the answer might be a resounding yes.
The media are guilty of treason.
The fact that the media controls the narrative and they collectively know they can get away with it, makes a “red wave” in November much less likely than reality would dictate . . .
Byedone and company, media, congress critters and all their subversive allies.

Truth
Headline: The Only People More Corrupt Than Joe Biden Are The Journalists Covering Him
The journalists covering him are useful idiots. Dirty Harry was an amateur compared to Joe.
With a properly functioning media, no corruption/crime can bear the scrutiny!
“covering” is the euphemism for “PROTECTING”.
IMHO, most “journalists” are scum. Far left political hacks and liars.
If they are so bad, why are they alive?
Exactly! I have said it for over 5 years. All this woke crap could not happen if the journalist weren’t themselves woke. And to be woke is to not follow the laws of journalism. Woke allows for propaganda. Woke allows for misinformation. Woke, allows for cancel culture. Woke has taken over the normal channels of information dissemination. Goebbels, would be proud of the journalists of today. Mao would be proud of the teachers and professors of today. And Mussolini would be proud of Antifa. Oh, and lets not forget all those public employees in Washington. Like the Nazi guards at Auschwitz, they were just following orders.
The media are what they are. They aren’t supporters of the Left, they ARE the Left. There will not be a “road to Damascus” moment for them where they suddenly see the errors of their ways and start doing stories about how the Democrats are the real racists. Not happening. When “conservative” politicians stop acting like it’s still 1960, and the press has just tilted a little tiny bit too much to the other side, we might make some progress. The press is the enemy. They aren’t going to change unless they somehow get even worse.
“If they are so bad, why are they alive?”
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Obviously just stupid conservatives making up stuff because they don’t like hearing the truth.
“makes a “red wave” in November much less likely than reality would dictate”
As an eternal pessimist, I have to agree. The American public is stupid, and easily led by the media. The fact that Biden has over 40% APPROVAL in blue regions tells you there are lots of people who wouldn’t vote red, even if their life was on the line. Secondly, red wave, blue wave, it really doesn’t matter. Listen to the recording of Scalise and McCarthy, then factor in China Mitch McConnell, and it becomes abundantly clear that if the Dems win, we lose, and if the GOP wins, the Dems win.
Joe Xiden has the excuse of dementia now. The deep state media are fully aware of what they are doing.
Absolutely!
““covering” is the euphemism for “PROTECTING”.”
Those covering Trump weren’t protecting him.
