The State Department sought to denigrate two reporters and a member of Congress as part of damage control attempts over having helped fund an advertisers’ “blacklist” of The Post and other outlets allegedly spreading “misinformation,” according to internal documents. In March 2023, the department distributed press guidance about how to counter bombshell reports by “Twitter Files” scribe Matt Taibbi and Washington Examiner investigative journalist Gabe Kaminsky concerning the State’s Global Engagement Center (GEC). Taibbi’s first report about the GEC, in a lengthy Twitter thread published Jan. 3, 2023, revealed efforts to pressure US social media platforms early in the COVID-19...

ABC News anchor Linsey Davis revealed in a post-debate Los Angeles Times puff-piece profile how she, ABC World News Tonight anchor David Muir and ABC producers schemed to ambush President Trump with ‘fact checks’ at Tuesday night’s presidential debate in Philadelphia with Kamala Harris after watching Trump crush and knock Joe Biden out of the race in their June debate. The fact checking at the debate was one-sided, with Trump being interrupted by Muir and Davis several times with ‘fact checks’ while Harris was not ‘fact checked’ once. Going into the debate, there was concern about Harris’ friendship with a...

If you watched Tuesday’s ABC debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, you saw that the moderators were doing everything they could to help Harris. A recent fluff piece on ABC’s Lindsey Davis in the LA Times not only proves this to be fact, but she’s bragging about their behind-the-scenes plan to ensure Trump was not able to end Harris’s campaign the same way he did President Joe Biden’s at the CNN debate in June. If you watched Tuesday’s ABC debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, you saw that the moderators...

Where did the Biden administration end and Twitter begin? The latest batch of the Twitter Files, reported by former Senate Finance Committee investigator Paul Thacker from records turned over by the Elon Musk-owned company now called X, shows a curious timeline in the first couple months of Democratic President Joe Biden's term. Within two weeks of the inauguration, the company covertly hired a "global strategic advisory and commercial diplomacy services" firm cofounded and chaired by former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright to seek State's help dealing with censorship pressure from India. On the two-month anniversary of the Biden administration, Politico...

Search giant Google struck a deal with the state of California to provide over a hundred million dollars in funding to local newsrooms head of the 2024 U.S. presidential election.

Foundation For Freedom's Mike Benz in an interview on 'The War Room' podcast said four-letter agencies are killing the ability to operate an independent website by selectively discriminating. (snip) BENZ: Yeah. We have a program known as media development or media sustainability at the State Department and at USAID.USAID plays a major role in this. In fact, folks can look this up. We have an institution known as Internews, which is a, basically the classic definition of what the CIA got busted doing in the 1950s to the 1970s with Project Mockingbird.But about a third of the National Endowment for...

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday repeatedly swerved from a message focused on the economy into non-sequiturs and personal attacks, including declaring several times that he was better looking than Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump wound back and forth between hitting his points on economic policy and delivering a smattering of insults and impressions of President Biden and French President Emmanuel Macron as he held a rally in northeastern Pennsylvania. The former president has seemed to struggle to adjust to his new opponent after Democrats replaced their nominee. Over the past week, he has diverged during campaign appearances away from...

WASHINGTON (AP) — At the top of his first speech as her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz turned to Vice President Kamala Harris and declared, “Thank you for bringing back the joy.” The next day, Harris took the theme a step further, branding the Democratic ticket “joyful warriors.” Contrast that with former President Donald Trump, who opened a news conference at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida a few days later by saying, “We have a lot of bad things coming up,” and predicting the U.S. could fall into an economic depression unseen since the dark days of 1929 or...

A team of NPR reporters and editors reviewed the transcript of his news conference .. 1. “I think our country right now is in the most dangerous position it’s ever been in from an economic standpoint…” ..but gross domestic product still grew at a relatively healthy annual clip of 2.8% in April, May and June – which is faster than the pace in three of the four years when Trump was president. 2. “…from a safety standpoint, both gangs on the street…” Nationally, violent crime-has been trending way down after a surge in 2020, according to the most recent data...

A newly discovered Zoom recording has exposed the Biden-Harris campaign’s systemic efforts to manipulate voters and control the narrative surrounding Biden’s fitness for office. The recording, obtained by journalist and video creator Matt Orfalea, reveals how top officials within the campaign worked to label legitimate concerns about Biden’s cognitive abilities as “disinformation” during the critical 2020 election cycle. In a series of posts on X, Orfalea detailed his findings from the Zoom call. The recording features Rob Flaherty, the digital director for the Biden campaign, who is now Deputy Campaign Manager; Becca Rinkevich, who served as Biden’s Rapid Response Director...

In the aftermath of the attempted assassination of Donald Trump on July 13, a video with images of Jesus crowned with thorns, blood running down his face, followed by photos of the former president circulated on social media. Days later, at the Republican National Convention, the evangelist Franklin Graham endorsed Mr. Trump from the stage, saying that “God spared his life.”But the idea of Mr. Trump as chosen by God has infuriated those evangelicals who believe that he stands in direct opposition to their faith. Their existence highlights an often-overlooked fact about the American religious landscape: Evangelicals are not a...

Shocking proof that the entire Democrat-Media Complex blindly parrots DNC talking points. Watch them all repeat the same scripted lines! This is really weird!!! WATCH

The U.S. intelligence community believes the Kremlin will direct its propaganda efforts to support former President Donald Trump over Vice President Kamala Harris in the election, an intelligence official indicated in a media call Monday. The call was held by the Foreign Malign Influence Center, one of the few arms of the U.S. government devoted to countering foreign propaganda campaigns.

Kamala Harris' popularity made a massive jump in the week since she stepped up and became Democrat's presumed 2024 nominee. The vice president's favorability sits at 43 percent – an eight point surge since last weekend, according to ABC News/Ipsos polling. The poll released a week ago revealed that 35 percent view Harris favorability and 46 percent see her in a unfavorable light.

For the first time since Donald Trump was indicted in the spring of 2023, he has lost his grip on the news cycle and — temporarily at least — his message. Instead of commanding morning-to-night media attention, the former president and his allies suddenly find themselves reacting to their opponents. It’s an unfamiliar experience for Trump, who has monopolized America’s televisions, newspapers and smartphones for more than 12 months through indictments, primary victories, 34 felony convictions, an assassination attempt and a Republican National Convention at which he was celebrated as a quasi-religious figure. In the three days since President Joe...

House Republicans passed a resolution Thursday criticizing Vice President Kamala Harris’ record on immigration as attacks on her work have ramped up since she became the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee—referring to her as the Biden administration’s “border czar”—but their criticisms misinterpret the actual task Harris was given on immigration, which is more narrowly focused on why people immigrate in the first place.

The likely 2024 presidential election campaign between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump begins with no clear leader, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS after President Joe Biden ended his bid for reelection. Trump holds 49% support among registered voters nationwide to Harris’ 46%, a finding within the poll’s margin of sampling error. That’s a closer contest than earlier CNN polling this year had found on the matchup between Biden and Trump.

Savanah Hernandez @sav_says_ I just confronted the entire CNN team about why they only started reporting about the cognitive decline of Joe Biden last month when the entire nation could see it for years I asked them if they were told not to report on Biden’s mental state, they didn’t respond | @TPAction_

WASHINGTON-Russia is turning to a familiar playbook in its attempt to sway the outcome of the upcoming U.S. presidential election, looking for ways to boost the candidacy of former President Donald Trump by disparaging the campaign of incumbent President Joe Biden, according to American intelligence officials. A new assessment of threats to the November election, shared Tuesday, does not mention either candidate by name. But an intelligence official told reporters that the Kremlin view of the U.S. political landscape has not changed from previous election cycles...
