Atlantic mag admits “pandemic” FAILED to brainwash people into “unifying”

This article in the Atlantic by Establishment Drone Director of the National Institutes of Health, Francis S. Collins, should interest us.

Not for its utterly predictable and easily debunked attempts at gaslighting about what the early days of “covid” were “really” like (the terror! the deaths! the hospitals like war-zones ! oh the humanity!).

No, what makes it interesting is the question in its title-

Why Didn’t Facing a Common Enemy Bring Us Together?

This is a respected mainstream drone authority in an establishment journal making two important admissions.

1 – that “covid” was anticipated to unite us

2 – that it failed to do so.

The first one is obvious – I mean, in his own words, “covid” was expected to “bring us together” – be a big global(ist) kumbaya moment. It was expected to be the trigger for humanity to put aside its differences in the face of a terrifying “common enemy”.

Yes, we were expected to cry with one voice, – we will lock ourselves down! Yes, we will wear face masks! Yes we will be injected with untested experimental compounds and endure empty food stores and invasive testing, QR codes and enforced medical interventions – to save us all from something much much worse!

This, of itself, isn’t really new information of course. The signs were all there very early that this was where it was intended to go. Does anyone remember ex-Prime Minister Gordon Brown in March 2020 saying the quiet part outloud WAY too soon and telling people “covid” inexplicably required a global government to deal with it?

The Second Trump Shooter Believed Exactly What the Establishment Media Wanted Him to Believe

On Sunday, for the second time this election cycle, a man was able to get close to Donald Trump with a rifle. The former president was golfing when Secret Service agents spotted a rifle barrel poking out of some bushes just off the course, near a hole Trump would soon play. Agents fired on the suspect, causing him to flee as Trump was rushed off the course. Shortly after, the man was apprehended by police.

A scoped rifle, two backpacks, and a video camera were recovered from the woods where the suspect was hiding. The FBI said it was investigating the incident as an attempted assassination. The suspect, Ryan Routh, has so far been charged with two gun-related crimes. 

While there are clearly some major differences between this incident and the first assassination attempt in July—when Trump was shot in the ear during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania—the fact that an armed man was able to get so close to the former president and remain undetected until the last moment for the second time in two months is a big deal.

Yet the reaction from the political establishment and the establishment media has been notably different. Back in July, there was broad agreement within the establishment that they needed to “lower the temperature.” This week, the rhetoric has changed. While most go through the motion of denouncing political violence, establishment figures and outlets have downplayed the assassination attempt, obscured the attempted shooter’s political ideology, and even blamed Trump himself for provoking people into trying to kill him.

It’s not surprising that the political establishment and their friends in the media want to dismiss or play down what happened on Sunday. Because Ryan Routh, the suspect, appears to have been motivated by the exact narrative of the war in Ukraine and the prospect of a second Trump term that the establishment is trying so hard to get the American public to accept. 

In early 2022, after Russia invaded Ukraine, the American establishment went into overdrive to whitewash all the developments that had led to the invasion. They instead defined Vladamir Putin as an expansionist tyrant bent on conquering all of Europe simply because he hates freedom and democracy.

Because of unearthed social media posts, numerous interviews with major outlets like The New York Times, and a self-published book, we can clearly see that Routh was completely convinced by the establishment’s characterization of the war. So much so that in the months after the war broke out, Routh traveled to Ukraine to try and join the fight. He was turned away, apparently due to his age, but stuck around to try and recruit other foreigners to join Ukraine’s ranks.

Zelensky’s Quarrel With Polish FM Sikorski Sinks Bilateral Relations – MSM Keeps Silent on the Crisis

While Poland has been one of Ukraine’s biggest backers both in terms of military and financial aid, and also in terms of receiving a massive wave of refugees when the war started.

But it hasn’t been without friction. The Previous conservative government came to a point about a year ago where it stopped all military aid and blocked Ukrainian grain, coming to the point of harshly criticizing its president in public, as you can read in Polish PM Morawiecki Warns Zelensky ‘Never to Insult Poles Again’, as Grain Ban Feud Intensifies After Warsaw Decision Not to Send Any More Weapons.

With the liberal and Euro-fanatic government of Donald Tusk coming into power, one could imagine that relations would improve markedly, but that does not seem to be the case, as Polish media reports that Zelensky had a row with Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski as he visited Kiev on Friday (14),

The Polish portal Onet report is behind a paywall, and the MSM refuses to cover this, so here’s what can be found on Telegram and on the Ukrainian media.

NY Times Calls Trump Would-Be Assassin Ryan Routh a ‘Crusader For Causes Large and Small’

The New York Times penned another glowing profile of Trump would-be assassin Ryan Routh, portraying him as a “crusader for causes large and small.”

Just two days after Routh was arrested on two gun charges after he had been waiting in the bushes of Trump’s West Palm Beach golf course with a scope-mounted rifle and GoPro camera, the New York Times published a flattering editorial of the 58-year-old mercenary.

From The Times:

How Mr. Routh, a peripatetic activist and building contractor with an extensive criminal record, came to possess a semiautomatic rifle, learn of Mr. Trump’s weekend whereabouts and wait for him on the edge of the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Fla., remains unknown.

But a review of public records and Mr. Routh’s writings, as well as interviews with people who knew him, suggest that he saw himself as an active and influential participant in momentous world events, while becoming estranged from at least some of his family and nearly destitute in the process.

Mr. Routh has been a serial crusader for causes large and small dating back to at least 1996, when he campaigned against graffiti in Greensboro, N.C., where he lived for decades. In July, he urged President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris on the social media platform X to visit the victims of the assassination attempt against Mr. Trump in Butler, Pa., writing that “Trump will never do anything for them.”

“Show the world what compassion and humanity is all about,” Mr. Routh wrote on July 16.

In other social media posts, he tagged world leaders and celebrities like Elton John and Elon Musk, often providing his phone number and email as if expecting a response.

The paper described how Routh began recruiting for Ukraine after he was denied a place on the frontline due to his age and lack of experience.

“Mr. Routh had set up a website called ‘Fight for Ukraine,’ in which he explained how to travel there and join the Ukrainian army as a foreign fighter. For the better part of a year, his main focus was getting hundreds of Afghan soldiers, who had fled after their country’s government collapsed, to fight for Ukraine,” the Times wrote.

While The Times noted that some of his recruiting methods were illegal, the paper commended his tenacity.

CNN’s Dana Bash Claims Second Would-be Assassin’s ‘Anti-Trump Posts’ Have ‘Nothing to do With’ Current Admin

In a recent development surrounding Donald Trump’s second assassination attempt, CNN’s Dana Bash provided a clear rebuttal to the former president’s claims regarding the involvement of Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden. 

The internet, however, has its counter arguments for Bash; with one of the biggest examples of the shooter’s adherence to the Democrat party being a Trump-Harris bumper sticker found on a truck he used.

During a Monday interview on “CNN Newsroom with Wolf Blitzer,” Bash addressed the former president’s accusations that Harris and Biden’s rhetoric was influencing threats against him.

ABC News Issues Vague Statement Following Viral ‘Whistleblower Affidavit’ Alleging Kamala Harris Received Debate Assistance — Fails to Address Specific Allegations

The American public has been left reeling after explosive new allegations surfaced accusing ABC News of blatant bias and collusion during last week’s presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris.

Calls for an immediate investigation into the network’s moderation tactics have grown louder, with several prominent voices raising serious concerns over a premeditated effort to rig the debate in favor of Harris.

On September 12, the debate bias claims were further fueled by a viral tweet from the account “Black Insurrectionist,” which claimed to have an affidavit from a whistleblower within ABC News.

The tweet reads:

“I will be releasing an affidavit from an ABC whistleblower regarding the debate. I have just signed a non-disclosure agreement with the attorney of the whistleblower. The affidavit states how the Harris campaign was given sample question which were essentially the same questions that were given during the debate and separate assurances of fact checking Donald Trump and that she would NOT be fact checked. Accordingly, the affidavit states several other factors that were built into the debate to give Kamala a significant advantage. I have seen and read the affidavit and after the attorney blacks out the name of the whistleblower and other information that could dox the whistleblower, I will release the full affidavit. I will be releasing the affidavit before the weekend is out.”

Is Trump’s Would be Assassin Ryan Routh an Associate of MSNBC Terrorism Analyst Malcolm Nance With Ukrainian Ties Mentioned in NY Times Article?

A New York Times report was discovered on Sunday mentioning Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, who was caught targeting Trump, armed with a scoped AK-47 rifle in West Palm Beach before shots were fired by the Secret Service.

The New York Times was actually in contact with and interviewed Routh for their article.

In an oddly coincidental Truth Social post, just hours before the attempted shooting, Trump said, “THE FAILING NEW YORK TIMES IS A TRUE THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!”

The article from the Times ties the would-be shooter to nutbag MSNBC terrorism analyst Malcolm Nance, who once called for ISIS to bomb the Trump Tower in Istanbul.

In 2022, when war broke out in Ukraine, Nance traveled to Ukraine and claimed he had joined the fighting against Russia.

The New York Times editorial, titled “Stolen Valor: The U.S. Volunteers in Ukraine Who Lie, Waste and Bicker,” references the International Legion created by Ukraine for allied foreign fighters to join the war effort, which both Routh and Nance were part of.

Routh is mentioned twice in the article. He alleges that he had planned to move recruits for the war effort into Ukraine illegally from Pakistan and Iran. New York Times excerpt:

With Legion growth stalling, Ryan Routh, a former construction worker from Greensboro, N.C., is seeking recruits from among Afghan soldiers who fled the Taliban. Mr. Routh, who spent several months in Ukraine last year, said he planned to move them, in some cases illegally, from Pakistan and Iran to Ukraine. He said dozens had expressed interest.

“We can probably purchase some passports through Pakistan, since it’s such a corrupt country,” he said in an interview from Washington.

It is not clear whether he has succeeded, but one former Afghan soldier said he had been contacted and was interested in fighting if it meant leaving Iran, where he was living illegally.

From Carolina Roofer To Ukraine Activist: Would-Be Trump Assassin Ryan Routh Gave Many Interviews With MSM 

Fox News confirmed earlier that the suspect in the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump has been identified as Ryan Wesley Routh. 

Using public records, Routh appears to be from Greensboro, North Carolina (some reports say he now lives in Hawaii) and was or still is part owner of United Roofing and Construction Inc. 

On Yelp, one negative review for “United Roofing” in late 2016 said:

“As a military member trying to buy a home before returning from a deployment, the proprietor, Ryan Routh, insulted me for trying to buy a house site unseen as many military members do returning from overseas.”

Brian Stelter: Image of Kamala Harris as ‘Hope and Change’ is More Important Than Anything She Actually Says

The potato has returned. Brian Stelter is back on the air at CNN and it’s almost like he never left.

During a recent segment on Kamala Harris, Stelter suggested that the image of Harris as the young ‘hope and change’ candidate is more important than anything she actually says about what she would do as president.

He also cheered for the image of Harris speaking at rallies. Has anyone told Brian that the campaign has to bus people in for these events?

Breitbart News reports:

CNN’s Stelter: Harris Is the ‘Change’ and ‘Images Are More Important’ than What ‘She’s Saying Right Now’

On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Source,” CNN Chief Media Analyst Brian Stelter declared that 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris “is the hope and change and youthful energy in this race.” And said that “the images are more important than anything she’s saying right now. When she keeps filling these rallies, that’s probably more important than what she says out loud at the rallies.”

While discussing Harris saying that she isn’t Joe Biden during a local media interview that she did earlier that day, host Kaitlan Collins asked, “Brian, what do you — what’s your sense of watching it, as someone who’s an observer?”

TIME Magazine Forced to Issue Embarrassing Correction After Calling One of Trump’s Debate Claims ‘False’

Tuesday night’s presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris has predictably spawned several viral moments dominating the news cycle this week.

What’s even more predictable is that while the mainstream media will run damage control for Harris’s performance, they will blast Trump’s to no end. On Wednesday, TIME Magazine found themselves all too willing to do the latter in praising Harris and informing their readers that Trump was outshined.

Notably, Trump called out Harris for supporting transgender surgeries for illegal immigrants in 2019. TIME found this to be absurd. How could Trump spew such falsehoods about his opponent? There’s just one major problem: Harris did support this in 2019. TIME was forced to issue a correction the same day.

The reader will find the following at the bottom of the TIME article’s page:

“The original version of this story mischaracterized as false Donald Trump’s statement accusing Kamala Harris of supporting ‘transgender operations on illegal aliens in prison’ As a presidential candidate in 2019, Harris filled out a questionnaire saying she supported taxpayer-funded gender transition treatment for detained immigrants.”

This isn’t some fringe right-wing talking point.

It’s something Harris is actually on record for supporting.

Moreover, it isn’t something Trump himself brought to light; CNN did that on Monday.

Erin Burnett — host of CNN’s “Erin Burnett OutFront” — spoke to Andrew Kaczynski, CNN’s senior editor for their KFile investigation team that day and reacted with shock as he confirmed Harris’s position on transgender surgeries for illegals through a questionnaire she filled out for the American Civil Liberties Union in 2019.

“She actually said she supported that?” Burnett asked in a clip that was posted to the social media platform X.
