Pathetic Attempt to Spin Optics With American Flags

The Mexican flags prominently displayed by foreign invaders in scenes like this…

…are not a good look for the Democrats who enabled the situation. Even some liberals have figured this out. Riot organizers are now passing out American flags for the media to focus on:

Images of the riots the mainstream media says are not happening are indelibly imprinted on the public consciousness. It is a little late for the liberal establishment to persuade us that foreign invaders and their anti-American allies are looting and setting cars on fire out of patriotism. But no doubt the legacy media will try its best.

Last of Lib Media’s Credibility Goes Up in LA Smoke

Like cars in the middle of Los Angeles intersections, any vestige of credibility the legacy media might have retained has gone up in flames. Assuming that the American public learned nothing from the Black Lives Matter riots the media enthusiastically supported, establishment propagandists are echoing Kamala Harris by reprising their preposterous spin that left-wing riots are “mostly peaceful.”

John Heileman of MSNBC even avers that if there are any riots happening in Los Angeles, the National Guard caused them by trying to stop them:

Let’s hear the local ABC affiliate’s take:

Via Modernity:

The anchor, Marc Brown, stated that the situation “could turn very volatile if you move law enforcement in there in the wrong way and turn what is just a bunch of people having fun watching cars burn into massive confrontation, altercation between officers and demonstrators.”

Stopping people who are just having some fun watching cars burn could make the situation volatile. We wouldn’t want that, so authorities should just leave them to it:

Forget China, forget Iran. The Democratic Party is the #1 enemy of the United States. This applies to the establishment media, as it is the propaganda wing of the Democratic Party.

Only Blacks and Gays May Be Celebrated

“Black Lives Matter!” the liberal establishment screams in our faces. “Celebrate gay pride!”

What if someone thought white lives matter too? What if they celebrated being sexually normal?

They would get in big trouble. Not only would the media denounce them, law enforcement would investigate:

NPR Is Still Pushing Covid Hysteria

Never mind Disease X. The libs at NPR are still milking hysteria from Covid. This piece was excreted just Tuesday:

Loryn Competti was watching the news with her husband at their home in Cincinnati when she heard about the new federal policy about who should get a COVID vaccine.

“I started crying,” says Competti. “I was like, ‘Am I really not going to be able to get this vaccine? Why? Why?’ That’s absolutely terrifying.”

Competti, 30, is about five months pregnant, which means she’s at high risk for serious complications from COVID. But the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has dropped its recommendation that healthy pregnant women routinely get vaccinated against the virus.

That means many insurance companies may not pay for the shots for them anymore.

If insurance really doesn’t pay, the risky, generally unnecessary vaccines can cost as much as $200. The only reasonable response to this crisis is to PANIC!!!!

Panic is useful because it can be exploited to justify all manner of repression and wasteful spending by Big Government. Here it is used to rally moonbats against Trump.

Media Hypes Drag Queen Who Likes to Mentor

There is nothing heroic about moonbattery. Yet moonbats have heroes to emulate. These are created by the media. Here it makes a hero out of an intersectional gay Transvestite of Color named Dwayne Dillon a.k.a. Bubblez:

The 43-year-old Marrero (Louisiana) native is a multi-talented force of nature, involved in many vital aspects of New Orleans culture. From second lines and the city’s Black drag scene to recently creating a stunning ensemble for Tarriona “Tank” Ball of Tank and the Bangas to wear at Jazz Fest this year, Bubblez’ influence can be felt throughout the city.

Specifically, Dillon’s influence will likely be felt by troubled and impressionable youth:

Dillon finds it so important to mentor young drag artists in the city, just as others mentored him. He’s part of the House of Alexander drag family, which got him into drag, and estimates he now has around 20 “drag children” or mentees.

The media still has some work to do:

Bubblez isn’t quite the household name you’d think he’d be. But that could be ready to change.

To advance that objective, the piece hypes an upcoming video hagiography of Bubblez directed by one Jacquelyn Shulman.

Shulman hopes the documentary will show people that drag actually can keep young people out of trouble and give them an outlet for navigating their emotions.

“The crazy thing is all of this talk about, ‘oh, corrupting kids and saving kids,’ and it’s like, this is saving lives. This is putting youth on a great path,” she says.

If troubled children are not shoved along the “great path” of LGBTism, they will commit suicide. This lie, employed as emotional blackmail against parents by healthcare professionals, has resulted in any number of ruined bodies, minds, and lives. In reality, sex change surgery — the ultimate culmination of LGBTification — raises suicide risk 12-fold.

NPR Sues to Make Us Pay for It

Liberals are sore about Trump’s executive order cutting funding to the pernicious propaganda platforms PBS and NPR. The latter is retaliating with a characteristic Democrat tactic, lawfare. Applying its steadfast left-wing spin to the US Constitution, NPR proclaims that the First Amendment guarantees the “right” to have Big Government force other people to pay for the bullhorn through which it excretes moonbattery.

Via Daily Signal:

Colorado Public Radio, Aspen Public Radio, and KSUT joined NPR as litigants in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia to challenge Trump’s order. …

The NPR stations allege the order is “textbook retaliation and viewpoint-based discrimination in violation of the First Amendment” …

“NPR is a non-partisan news organization that adheres to and upholds the highest standards of public service in journalism,” Katherine Maher, CEO of NPR, said in a public statement.

That this left-wing revolutionary would lie so brazenly as to ask us to believe cartoonishly woke NPR is nonpartisan gives an idea of its reliability as a source of information.

Watch as Maher proclaims that reverence for the truth is a distraction:

Trump’s EO came not a day too soon. Continue funding this cancer and soon it will metastasize until it is shutting down platforms that provide alternative viewpoints as in Canada.

WaPo Gets Pulitzer for Trump Assassination Coverage

In the spirit of nominating 60 Minutes for an Emmy for deceptively editing an interview to help Kamala Harris in the last election, the Washington Post has been granted a Pulitzer for its coverage of the first assassination attempt on Trump, which it characterized as “loud noises”:

Meanwhile, the media has refrained from looking into the background of shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks, lest it reveal connections that the liberal establishment would find embarrassing.

Another recently awarded Pulitzer is more outrageous still:

ProPublica won one regarding its coverage of abortion post-Dobbs, and it was a doozy. The story about Amber Thurman, who the liberal media alleges was killed by Republicans, turned out to be grade-A trash. Thurman was a Georgia resident. The state recently passed a law banning abortions after six weeks. That’s not what killed Thurman—it was a rare complication from the abortion pills she took (via National Review).

Walter Duranty would be proud to see that the award he was granted for hiding Stalin’s atrocities from the public has maintained its credibility.

The Pulitzer Prize has been summed up as “narcissists awarding like-minded folk for manufacturing fake news.” Like the Nobel Peace Prize (which has been awarded to a scam artist [Al Gore], two of America’s worst presidents [Jimmy Carter, Barack Obama], a communist dictator [Mikhail Gorbachev], and even terrorists [Nelson Mandela, Yasser Arafat]), it has been subverted by moonbattery and thereby reduced to farce.

CBS Gets Emmy Nomination for Deceptive Editing

If New York Times propagandist Walter Duranty deserved the Pulitzer Prize for whitewashing the horrific Stalin regime and hiding the Holodomor from the public, the apparatchiks at CBS’s 60 Minutes have an Emmy coming for the infamously deceptive editing job they did on a Kamala Harris interview during election season.

Via Fox News:

The nominations for the 46th News & Documentary Emmy Awards were announced Thursday. “60 Minutes” landed several nods, most notably in the Outstanding Edited Interview category for its primetime special featuring then-Vice President Kamala Harris…

CBS altered the interview so shamelessly that Trump has filed a $20 billion lawsuit for election interference.

The lawsuit stems from an exchange Harris had with “60 Minutes” correspondent Bill Whitaker, who asked her why Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wasn’t “listening” to the Biden administration.

Harris was widely mocked for the “word salad” answer that aired in a preview clip of the interview on “Face the Nation.” However, when Whitaker asked the same question during the primetime special, Harris had a different, more concise response. Critics at the time accused CBS News of editing Harris’ “word salad” answer to shield the then-vice president from further backlash leading up to Election Day.

As the nomination implies, the liberal establishment media takes pride in the sins it commits against journalism for the sake of its malign ideology.

Hamas Propagandists at the BBC

George Orwell named Room 101 in 1984 after a conference room at BBC headquarters because he had sat through brutally tedious meetings there — or maybe because the Beeb represents the intersection of totalitarian ideology and pure evil:

[BBC Arabic journalist Samer Elzaenen] has appeared on the Arabic-language branch of the UK public broadcaster more than a dozen times since Hamas’s terrorist attacks on October 7, 2023.

Elzaenen said this on Facebook:

“When things go awry for us, shoot the Jews, it fixes everything.”

And this:

“We shall burn you as Hitler did, but this time we won’t have a single one of you left.”

He has used the hashtag, “#We Are All Hamas You Son of a Jewess.”

By now it is clear what leftists are supporting when they wear their keffiyehs and brandish their Palestinian flags.

Elzaenen isn’t the only Hamas propagandist at the Beeb:

[F]reelance contributor Ahmed Qannan … expressed his hope, in response to a terror attack in January 2023 at a Jerusalem synagogue, that Israelis would die.

Qannan uses Facebook too:

In response to a Facebook comment from a friend saying, ‘We want to see some throats cut,’ Qannan replied, ‘Don’t give up on your ambition,’ seemingly encouraging the sentiment.

Then there is Beeb freelance journalist Ahmed Alagha, who opines,

““And as we know, the ‘Israelis’ are not human beings to begin with, rather they are not even beasts.”

They must fit right in with the other pro-Hamas propagandists at the BBC:

In February, a Beeb documentary about Gaza was pulled from iPlayer after it was accused of spreading terrorist propaganda.

The programme aired on BBC Two and is narrated by 13-year-old Abdullah Al-Yazouri, who describes life in the city during the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

But, following an investigation, it later emerged the boy is the son of Ayman Alyazouri, Hamas’s deputy minister of agriculture.

It isn’t only British taxpayers who are forced to finance this crumbling pillar of the morally depraved leftist establishment media. The BBC has gotten its greedy claws on US taxpayer money too.

CNN Promotes Taylor Lorenz Promoting Murder

Some moonbats mindlessly go along with the herd they have been caught up in. Others are not merely wrong but malevolent. If promotion of Black Lives Matter looters, vandals, and scumbags didn’t make this obvious, siding with Hamas after the October 7 atrocities surely did. Then there is the adulation of accused murderer Luigi Mangione.

Mangione’s claim to fame is allegedly shooting Brian Thompson, CEO of UnitedHealthcare, in the back for providing customers with healthcare insurance on a nonsocialist basis. Former Washington Post, New York Times, Daily Beast, and Business Insider propagandist Taylor Lorenz and CNN leftist Donie O’Sullivan reveal the reverence this cowardly crime has earned him among progressives:

Gushes Lorenz:

“Here’s this man who’s a revolutionary, who’s famous, who’s handsome, who’s young, who’s smart. He’s a person that seems that like it’s this morally good man, which is hard to find.”

In liberal upside-down world, murdering the innocent makes you “morally good.”

Lorenz has expressed “joy” over Thompson’s assassination.

Some background:

In 2022, Lorenz revealed the identity of the previously anonymous woman behind the popular Libs of TikTok Twitter account. She also appeared at the home of one of Libs of TikTok’s relatives and has been criticized for allegedly reaching out to teenagers without consent from their parents in order to cover social media influencers.

Remarks Heritage Foundation Media Fellow Tim Young,

“Now that we see that Lorenz views a murderer as moral, one can easily conclude exactly what her motivations were in doxxing anonymous conservatives and their families.”

Also in 2022, Donie Sullivan was kicked off Twitter for doxxing. No wonder the two seem to hit it off.

Assuming she does not already have one, where do you suppose Taylor will place her Luigi Mangione tattoo?

Some might dismiss Taylor Lorenz as a particularly vile individual who has gone off the rails. But the pillar of the establishment media that is CNN saw fit to provide her an openly sympathetic platform. The rot is profound and reaches from bottom to top.

If liberal establishmentarians would celebrate Brian Thompson’s murder, they would celebrate yours.

Dog Torturer in Drag

People aren’t the only victims of transsexual violence. Sometimes animals fall victim, as in this case:

A Detroit woman is facing animal torture charges after she stabbed her dog and posted footage of the wounded animal online, police say.

Jordan Love, 29, of Detroit, was charged with the killing and torturing of animals in the second degree as well as abandoning and cruelty to four to ten animals when she was arrested almost 700 miles away from her home…

Three dogs and four cats were rescued from the suspect’s home and taken to the Detroit Animal Care and Control shelter.

Nowhere in the report is it mentioned that the “Detroit woman” is a man. The original story at the Independent leads off with a mugshot of Mr. Love sporting a 2-day beard, but the MSN version deletes this and offers no indication that he is not really a woman.

Get a load of this self-congratulatory note found at the bottom of the MSN though not the original version:

Since 1986, The Independent has campaigned for what we believe in, not what we are told to believe, with integrity, inclusion, innovation and independence as our guiding principles.

It’s anyone’s guess what they mean by “integrity,” but the word “inclusion” is confirmation that they consciously sacrifice veracity to moonbattery, as they demonstrate by calling Love a woman and using the wrong pronouns.

Establishment information gatekeepers have marginalized themselves. By now, everyone knows they deliberately mislead us on behalf of an agenda disgusting enough to put a vulture off its lunch. Fortunately, alternatives are emerging.

BBC News Pidgin

Since not only British but also American taxpayers have been forced to finance the BBC, let’s check in on how the leftist propaganda platform has been spending our money. Here’s an interesting headline:

Exercise Na Di Best Way to Lose Fat?

The article begins,

Many pipo dey go to gym wit one goal for dia mind: to burn fat.

It’s not that the Beeb is hiring illiterates for the sake of DEI (although they might be). BBC has an entire news service dedicated to articles written in pidgin English.

Even quotes are translated into pidgin. Ed Merritt, described as a professor of kinesiology at Southwestern University in Texas, is quoted as saying,

“Exercise is important for overall health, but di calories you dey burn during exercise fit easily dey replaced by food.”

The idea is to pander to blacks, who can’t be expected to comprehend proper English. Once again we see that no one is more insultingly racist than condescending liberals.

Reporter Who Whacked Trump With Mic Identified

The reporter who whacked Trump in the face with an oversized microphone at Joint Base Andrews on Friday has been identified. Care to guess which MSM platform she represents?

Here’s a clue: the answer won’t surprise you. But that doesn’t narrow it down much, given that most news outlets are dominated by unhinged leftists. Another clue: the government forces you to finance it. In light of DOGE revelations, that’s not much of a clue either. Let’s just have the answer from Todd Starnes:

Investigative journalist Laura Loomer identified the clumsy journalist as NPR White House correspondent Danielle Kurtzleben. Why in the world NPR assign a 26-year-old to such a lofty position is beyond me.

Also bewildering is why the Secret Service doesn’t tight things up after two failed assassination attempts. Given that Kurtzleben has compared him to Hitler, Trump is lucky he got away with a whack in the face with a microphone.

He handled it well:

No doubt Kurtzleben received a hero’s welcome when she got back to the office. Given its listenership, NPR fundraising will be off the charts — so it won’t need our money.
