The Media Concede Kamala’s Defeat. Now They Need To Fully Surrender If They Want To Be Spared

There won’t be an apology and even as they concede Kamala’s defeat, they won’t do what’s needed — a full and unconditional surrender.

Enjoy this brief moment of self-reflection and candor from the media while it lasts. Regardless, they need to pay a heavy price this time.

We’re watching the immediate post-2016 election aftermath happen all over again. The news media are reluctantly conceding defeat to Donald Trump and finally admitting the obvious.

On the New York Times’ “The Daily” podcast, reporter Astead Herndon was one such illuminating case. “I just feel as if, whether it is ‘democracy,’ whether it is lecturing Americans, saying inflation is actually not that bad, that there has been a tone coming from Democrats to tell people the problems that they had are not legitimate,” he said. “And I think that is at the core of their problems in this race. It’s hard for me not to go back to the fact that when these issues were most clear and they had a chance to speak to those concerns, they decided not to and they decided to double down on this administration, to double down on the incumbent.”

That’s true but not so fast, sweaty. The media don’t get to act like mildly concerned bystanders now positioned to offer a sober account of what just happened. Kamala Harris’s defeat is every bit theirs as it is the Democrat Party’s, arguably even more so. The media banked that they still had enough cachet, even just by a sliver, to do the impossible — insist to American voters that what they could see and feel wasn’t real in order to hoist history’s most feckless individual into the world’s most powerful office.

I worked on it a bit yesterday. I chased it down a few months ago but didn’t document it like I should have. So I have to chase it all down again. But the common connection is Peter Thiel. Thiel is straight up two faced. He is a Bilderberger and NWO. He is CIA, MIC, and cyber intelligence against the people through and through. Thiel is Palantir technologies so it is what he does and they are his customers.

He gives to Trump only in hopes to better his influence and position for government contracts. Thiel is not to be trusted and Vance worked for Thiel after Vance was military intelligence and a propaganda operator, Thiel was his mentor and he is still deep in bed with Thiel and the MIC. All the connections to Thiel are connections to Vance.

I will dig some more to make my case and connections after a little more coffee and get back to you... Because this reality is going to be important soon.

To get you started just read Thiel’s bio on wikipedia. And remember that Vance is attached to his hip.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palantir_Technologies

Now Vance’s and connect the dots also with funding from Eric Schmidt and Marc Andreessen. Marc backed Hillary.

Marc Andreessen

There are a whole lot of conflicts of interest in these associations... And they all point to NWO, MIC, and the CIA.

I hardly ever go to the NY Slimes and other mass media. I shot my TV same as Elvis Pressly did. So I am not getting any brainwashing mass media via cable TV etc etc.
The only way I go to mass media is if I get an interesting referral from FR or Twitter. And sometimes from Microsoft-Bing news. Which is a very fair newsfeed. Including articles from left right and center.

And they are all Bilderbergers. As you know the Bilderbergers are NWO. Kissinger. In fact Peter Thiel was just at the 2024 meeting. I don’t think he has ever missed one.

Read the thread. I just made the connections for Laz because he actually understands how big this really is.

I knew nothing about JD Vance before Trump picked him. Everything I've seen since only makes me like him more. Yours is the only dissent I've seen otherwise in the Free Republic audience.

I should point out that to me the NWO and the Bilderburgs etc are merely useful idiots for Communist China. It is not a coincidence that their goals overlap those of China so closely.

It was China's man made Virus that gave Democrats what they needed to steal the 2020 election. You don't fight your way to the top of a billion people in the most evil country on Earth without being a totally ruthless mastermind.

Need to go after broadcast licenses for networks that engaged in propaganda.

Oh, but the president of the Deep State took care of that long ago:

Absolutely my privilege. I highly respect the objectiveness for a change Laz. I have been studying this stuff for over 45 years and have hit nothing but mental firewalls. I have been sharing these realities here for years now to no avail. No one can grasp the true bigger picture of reality. They are NOT tinfoil hat conspiracy theories. The proof is everywhere, you just have to be objective and connect the dots. And everything leads to BlackRock, State Street, and Vanguard. Everything... They are the heads of the globalist snake. Take Eric Schmidt for example, Alphabet Inc./Google... CIA NWO MIC tool owned by these three corporations... Take a look at the three top stakeholders and owners.

What time do the camps open? Maybe if they self report early they can get the best suites.

“Oh, but the president of the Deep State took care of that long ago:”

Absolutely. That needs to be repealed and the Smith-Mundt act reinstated. But it will not happen because the establishment GOP is just as much in bed with the one world government agenda as the democrats are.
