CBS Wants Viewers to Be Terrified of SCOTUS ‘Dominated by Conservatives’

The theme of Monday’s CBS Evening News was ‘be afraid, be afraid of conservatives on the Supreme Court.’ And they weren’t subtle about it. It was the common thread throughout their four back-to-back segments about the battle to fill the vacant seat once held by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

In fact, stoking fear of conservatives was how anchor Norah O’Donnell kicked off the program in the opening teases.

Woke, Anti-Trump Marvel Stars Silent on Disney-China Debacle

19th September 2020

Read it.

Four years ago the Avengers assembled to stop Donald Trump’s presidential plans.

The video clip featured a who’s who of the MCU, the acronym for Disney’s Marvel Cinematic Universe. Think Robert Downey, Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Don Cheadle, Mark Ruffalo and Clark Gregg. They joined a gaggle of fellow Hollywood stars to warn the nation against Donald Trump’s potential presidency in a clip dubbed “Save the Day.”

…

That was then. Today, some of these stars are re-assembling to push Joe Biden’s presidential hopes against now-President Trump. Nothing unusual there given the industry’s progressive leanings.

So what’s missing?

Hollywood voices speaking out against either Chinese human rights abuses, an ongoing and intractable problem, or the recent headlines swirling around Mulan.

Nasty ‘View’ Bullies Lose Their Minds After Baltimore GOP Candidate Fights Back

18th September 2020

Read it.

GOP congressional candidate for Maryland’s seventh district Kim Klacik, whose powerful campaign ad about how Democrats have destroyed Baltimore drew the attention of President Trump, appeared on The View today and there were definitely fireworks.

While co-hosts Meghan McCain and Sara Haines were polite to their guest, liberal co-hosts Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, and Ana Navarro were extremely hostile particularly because the young, black Republican woman strongly defended President Trump on the issue of racism. In fact, she made them so angry that the liberal hosts ganged up on her and shouted her down to end the show.

I guess black lives don’t matter when they vote Republican.

MSNBC host Chuck Todd promoted the fantasy during Thursday’s MTP Daily when he marveled over the Biden campaign’s supposed “luck” at receiving a favorable “news cycle” where the media hammered President Trump on its behalf.

Water Company Withdraws Desalination Proposal as Battle Over Environmental Justice Heats Up

‘Environmental justice’?

The proposal had become one of the most fraught issues to come before the California Coastal Commission, which was set to vote Thursday. The decision would have been the first major test of the commission’s new power to review not only harm to the environment when making decisions but also harm to underrepresented communities.

Presumably this means that they’re no longer ‘unrepresented’, with white people taking up their cause, theoretically.

Sports Blogger Calls for ‘Black Liberation,’ More of What NFL Fans Are Rejecting

13th September 2020

Read it.

During the NFL’s Thursday night season opener, fans at Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium and the television viewers at home made it clear they are not cool with athlete activism in the workplace. Particularly the Marxist brand of Black Lives Matter activism. That’s unacceptable with the NFL, says sports blogger Tyler Tynes of The Ringer.

The fans in attendance Thursday expressed themselves with boos and those at home did likewise by simply by not tuning in on television. Viewership on television crashed to a 10-year low for an NFL season opener.

Yet in an interview with NPR’s Sacha Pfeiffer, The Ringer’s Tyler Tynes urged African American athletes to give the fans even more of what they don’t want.

The blogger in question is, of course, black.

MIT Technology Review Gaslights Conservatives for Concern Over Riots

Joan Donovan, director of the Technology and Social Change Research Project at the center, blamed conservatives for being the real source of America’s modern violence. Her September 3 op-ed ran in the MIT Technology Review specifically targeted “right-wing adversarial media-makers like Elijah Schaffer and Andy Ngo.”

Her piece, “How an overload of riot porn is driving conflict in the streets,” condemned conservatives for using social media as a “machine to spread a narrative of lawless rioting.” Donovan smeared the uptick in use of video to condemn the violence of rioters as “the rise of riot porn.”

While the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) were stoking fear of any coronavirus vaccine produced under Trump’s presidency, they blacked out the nationwide outrage at ABC-owner Disney for giving a “special thanks” to the operators of China’s Uighur concentration camps in the credits of their new movie Mulan. It was a missed opportunity for their competitors at CBS and NBC.

The Libertarian magazine Reason put it best in describing the disturbing situation with Disney’s praise for the murderous Chinese regime. “The new Mulan movie is facing a barrage of criticism—and promises to boycott—for filming near Chinese concentration camps and then thanking the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for the privilege,” wrote Elizabeth Nolan Brown.

Why the Nonsense About Trump Refusing to Leave Office?

5th September 2020

John Hinderaker at PowerLine.

One of the Democrats’ more lunatic themes is their insistence that if President Trump loses the election, he likely will refuse to leave office, in effect staging a coup. Most recently the claim was made by Bernie Sanders. Politico headlined: “Sanders: America must be prepared for when Trump refuses to leave office.”

To some extent, this may be projection. The Democrats themselves have been staging a slow-motion coup for nearly four years, trying by hook or by crook to force our duly-elected president out of office. And they are the ones who have vowed to count and recount ballots to the last ditch, with Hillary Clinton telling Joe Biden, do “not concede under any circumstances.”

More significantly, I think the Democrats’ fantasizing about Trump illegally staying on in the White House is battlespace preparation for the election and for Trump’s second term (assuming he wins the election). The Democrats are expecting a close election that may not have a clear winner. They have warned that Trump may appear to have won in a landslide on election night, and it may take weeks of ballot counting to give Joe Biden the victory.

So we may well endure a post-election Hell of endless ballot judging and counting not just in one state (Florida in 2000), but potentially a dozen. Given the Democrats’ strategy of encouraging an unprecedented volume of voter fraud through voting by junk mail, the number of questionable ballots will be immense. It is quite possible that once again, the Supreme Court will be called on to sort out legal arguments–this time, likely in multiple states–so as to determine the winner. Meanwhile, the Democrats will be howling at President Trump to concede the election, and accusing him of hanging on illegally when he refuses.

NYT Lets Fake News CEO Spout About Dangerous ‘Right-Wing Media’ on Facebook

5th September 2020

Read it.

New York Times tech reporter Mike Isaac reported Friday on what sounds like a pretty obvious attempt to limiting Trump’s social media sway: “Facebook To Confront Distortions Before Vote.”

But as you’ll see, Isaac’s report had a major unacknowledged problem that wrecked its credibility.

Jeffrey Goldberg’s Story Is Believable; It Should Not Have Been Published

4th September 2020

Read it.

National Review cuck Isaac Schorr gently chides his proglodyte masters while slamming Trump.

Nobody who has observed Trump during his Presidency thus far, much less his entire life, could characterize the Atlantic smear as ‘believable’; it is ‘believable’ only with TDS.

This is why a lot of people have quit reading National Review; ZMan is, sadly, correct that they are sock puppets for the Crust.

PolitiFact’s Pants-On-Fire Claims of Neutrality

4th September 2020

Read it.

pparently, the proper role of the “independent fact checker” in today’s presidential campaign is to present the consistent opinion that Joe Biden is a force for truth and light, and Donald Trump is a rampaging liar who never says anything true.

No one should suggest that these “fact checker” groups need to parcel their rulings out in a completely even fashion, so everyone gets a participation trophy for being half-right. But the dramatic tilt in these “fact checkers” betrays an obvious partisan bias.

This is the sort of gaffe that Biden gets into when they let him out of the basement.

The debates (IF THEY ACTUALLY HAPPEN) ought to prove especially entertaining this year.

Man Sought in Portland Killing Admitted to Shooting Right-Wing Activist

CNN.

Of course, they couldn’t tag it ‘Left-wing activist sought in Portland killing admitted to shooting man’ or even ‘Left-wing activist sought in Portland killing admitted to shooting right-wing activist’, which at least would be fair. No, they have to prime the pump so that readers will know what viewpoint The Narrative requires.
