Media bias in 2019 is more flagrant and destructive than in 2016. And 2016 saw outright bias in the media like we in America had rarely if ever seen before. 24/7 it is literally “Orange Man Bad” reporting. Surveys of reporting in the MSM show that 92% of the reporting on PDJT is negative. This highly negative reporting is about a President who, at this point in his Presidency, has done more for the American people than the last four Presidents did over their entire Presidencies combined.
Where are the positive stories about this?
Critics of the media who call out this obvious bias, are often mocked or dismissed. The media try to make perfectly sane people with a valid theory or gripe look like they are crazy or some kind of right-wing conspiracy nuts. We have seen this over and over again in interviews in the MSM with Trump defenders.
Jake Tapper is notorious for doing this. There’s simply no way that every person Tapper interviews who supports PDJT deserves to be mocked and treated like a criminal. On the other side of coin, does every person who opposes PDJT deserve softball questions and to be treated with kid gloves?
My, my. The smoke is clearing. John Solomon over at The Hill continues to do yeoman’s investigative work. The so-called corruption fantasy that has been derided by the Democrats and their cronies in the MSM is being documented by true investigative reporting.
Through memos obtained under a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit (Solomon filed the suit this summer with the help of the public interest law firm, the Southeastern Legal Foundation), Solomon shows that everything Joe Biden and the Obama administration previously denied taking place regarding the Ukraine actually took place.
Solomon noted that Burisma hired Hunter Biden in the spring of 2014, around the time that British officials opened corruption investigations into Burisma. Hunter Biden’s firm began receiving monthly payments in May 2014 from Burisma totaling more than $166,000, according to bank records.
An item that has not received a lot of press lately is House Judiciary Committee chairman Jerry Nadler’s attempt to unseal the grand jury testimony collected by the Special Counsel. The Special Counsel found no evidence of any crimes involving the reason for the existence of the Special Counsel. That is, there was no collusion between anyone in the Trump campaign and Russia or Russian actors. There was also no obstruction charged.
On the contrary, as is slowly being revealed in the General Michael Flynn case, there appears to be significant evidence of criminal wrongdoing within the Special Counsel’s staff. It appears that they tried to entrap Flynn and, when that failed, they doctored transcripts of his testimony to make it appear that he lied to Federal investigators. How far and how widespread this illicit conduct goes is unclear at this time. Sydney Powell, Flynn’s attorney, is apparently about to file a motion to dismiss the Flynn case “due to egregious misconduct” on the part of the government.
After five long months of unrest in Hong Kong, what do the protesters really want? Many have said they are protesting for democracy. To “Free Hong Kong.” To “Liberate Hong Kong.” But what does that really mean?
To better understand what Hong Kongers want, one just has to look at the flags they are carrying to their protests.
They are now engaging in faking a quid pro quo event in an attempt to impeach our President and to enslave America. This is sedition. How will this all end?
The MSM is becoming more and more exposed as being obviously biased against law-abiding citizens who believe in this country, who believe in life and liberty, and for those who would plot the country’s destruction.
The most recent example of this was WaPo’s handling of the al-Baghdadi death. WaPo exposed itself as being biased against anyone who values human life and for someone who beheaded thousands of people who would not ascribe to his particular beliefs.
The Democrats moved further down the trail away from fairness and justice. Adam Schiff prohibited witnesses from answering questions from Republican congressmen during Schiff’s impeachment inquisition in the House basement. Schiff claims it is a fair process, but Schiff is now directing witnesses not to answer questions from Republicans. Why? Is Adam Schiff afraid of the truth?
As Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Steve Scalise (R-LA) reported, this is becoming more and more the type of one-sided process one used to see in the old Soviet Union. The Democrats are trying to impeach a President behind closed doors without any due process just like in the old Soviet Union.
The Soviets would decide what the crime was, they would decide who would testify and then they would render a verdict. Of course, that verdict would be pre-determined. Show trials were their specialty. By the time they were done, the public would be convinced of the guilt of any innocent party. If the victim played along, then he/she might expect only a couple of decades in the gulag.
An interesting article on the leftist mindset. As J. R. Dunn points out, Rick Wilson bares his deranged mind for the world to see.
An interesting portrayal of the leftist mentality, particularly as regards matters involving President Trump, can be found on the left-wing site Medium.
It’s not often we get a clear picture of how leftists actually think. The message is so simplified, dumbed down, and controlled, largely for the benefit of the lowest-common-denominator Left, along with camouflaging the actual agenda, that what we usually get is no more than a cartoon. “Journalists,” print, broadcast, or whatever, are simply robots who repeat whatever is given to them. Pundits and other commentators are in the business of soothing and calming down true believers — yes, it’s all going according to plan, yes, utopia is on schedule, yes, the revolution is coming. ...
