ABC Moderators Fact Check Trump and Let Harris Skate

ABC News moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis fact checked former president Donald Trump in real time during Tuesday night’s debate. When Vice President Kamala Harris made false statements, they kept quiet.

Muir pushed back on Trump’s claim that crime is “up and through the roof,” saying the “FBI says overall violent crime is actually coming down in this country.” Experts say the FBI’s stats are incomplete.

Davis, meanwhile, pushed back after Trump said vice presidential nominee Tim Walz supported “execution after birth.” While babies in Walz’s Minnesota have died shortly after delivery following failed abortion procedures, Davis jumped in to say there is “no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it is born.”

CNN Journalist Suggests It’s Unfair to Ask Kamala About “Policy Detail”

Ahead of tonight’s debate, a CNN journalist suggested it was unfair for people to ask too much “policy detail” of Kamala Harris and that it was the media’s “job” to point that out.

The comments were made by Natasha S. Alford during a discussion of what to expect during this evening’s head to head between Harris and Trump.

“How does she have an opportunity on the one hand to do what needs to get done and also straddle that?” Alford was asked.

“Well I think this is where the fourth estate comes in, this is our job, right, as journalists tomorrow?” she responded.

“To actually push on the policy questions because what I do feel is that people are pushing for a higher standard of policy detail that they’ve actually pushed Donald Trump for,” she added.

In other words, don’t give Kamala too many hard questions about policy, despite that literally being the entire point of the debate.

Also, don’t grill her too much on things that matter, despite that being the entire point of journalism.

Harris has notoriously avoided talking about her what her actual policies will be and has only agreed to one major interview so far, during which she had to have her running mate Tim Walz sat next to her.

Kamala Surrogate Lectured By CNBC Anchor Over “Master Class In Avoiding Any Questions” 

Commerce Secretary and Kamala Harris surrogate Gina Raimondo found herself on the end of a rare moment where a CNBC anchor called out Harris’ complete lack of engagement with the press and the American people since being installed as the Democratic nominee.

“Squawk Box” co-host Joe Kernen was having none of it when Raimondo claimed Harris is “reaching out” to people, that “she’s spending her time talking to Americans,” and “She has a punishing schedule.”

“She hasn’t talked to the press, Gina. I know you’re a surrogate, but the American people are frustrated,” Kernan countered.

He continued, “The media is frustrated with the amount of access anyone’s gotten to her for the past 41 days.”

“We’re finally going to have a debate tomorrow night because she sat down for one interview that was taped and then cut down,” the anchor added.

“Certain little things came out from it, but it has been a masterclass in avoiding any questions and nothing has been made clear by her,” Kernan urged.

He added, “Maybe it’s been made clear in drubs and drabs from her policymakers when it comes out in print or off a teleprompter at one of her scripted speeches.”

“She’s been impossible to pin down on anything because she hasn’t given any access. The American people deserve it,” Kernan concluded, then asking Raimondo “Wouldn’t you agree?”

She despondently responded, “yes.”

Media Deliberately Lowers Expectations For Kamala’s Debate Performance

The media appears to be deliberately lowering expectations for Kamala Harris’ performance during tonight’s debate so they can declare her the winner.

According to MSNBC, her campaign is preparing Kamala on how to respond to Trump should he insult her or make any kind of derogatory comments on stage.

“Part of the plan is for the vice president to remain calm in those situations, to appear presidential in those situations, but also be prepared to stand her ground, to call out any lies she may hear on the debate stage and to take Donald Trump to task on things that did or didn’t happen during his time in the White House,” reports the network.

Kamala is also reportedly planning to raise the issue of ‘Project 25’, something which was not created by Trump and which he has already disavowed.

Essentially, the media is already on board with Kamala’s tactic of not allowing Trump to get under her skin, and will report her performance as “presidential” if she merely stands there and doesn’t raise her voice.

Talk about low expectations.

“Notice how they’re trying to set the narrative,” comments Charlie Kirk. “They’re trying to frame it so that Kamala is the “winner” if she simply doesn’t have a meltdown in front of 50 million people.”

“They know the most common attitude about Kamala is that she is unprepared, unready, and unpresidential — so they’re lowering expectations as much as they can.”

Harris is reportedly practicing for the debate by having one of her campaign members play the part of Trump.

As we previously highlighted, pollster Frank Luntz said the winner of the debate will very likely end up being the winner of the presidency.

The Media Wants a Return to 2020

They’re never going to stop.

We’re a few months away from the end of 2024, four and a half years after the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. It’s a truth that should clearly be universally acknowledged by now, that the pandemic policies enacted by global governments were a catastrophic failure.

Mask mandates were pointless, harmful, and completely ineffective. School closures were one of history’s biggest mistakes, causing learning loss among young people that will set them back an entire generation. Business shutdowns achieved little except for hurting small business owners at the expense of massive corporations and necessitating a rolling series of money printing leading to rampant inflation.

Then we witnessed the formerly unimaginable emergence of vaccine passports.

Regardless, those policies have generally, and thankfully, come to an end. Overwhelming evidence, data, and scientific studies have confirmed that the Anthony Fauci-CDC doctrine was based on nothing, and accomplished less. But among the fearless media columnist set, there’s a desperation to return to the glory days of pandemic restrictions. The latest example coming from an opinion article published over at The Hill, complete with the usual misinformation, poor reasoning, and willful ignorance of current realities.

Outrage As BBC Asks Viewers Of Breast Cancer Documentary To “Check Your Chests”

Breast cancer survivors have expressed disgust after the BBC aired a documentary on the matter and encouraged viewers to “check your chests.”

Yes, really. They dared not say the word ‘breasts’ when advising women to self examine their breasts. 

Ok, men can get cancer in their chests, but it’s still called ‘breast cancer’, the disease overwhelmingly affects women and the entire documentary was about women.

It’s clear that enforced ‘inclusivity’ language was at play here.

MSNBC’s, POLITICO’s Lemire Falsely Claims Vance Dismissed Shootings as ‘Fact of Life’

On Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” MSNBC host and POLITICO White House Bureau Chief Jonathan Lemire denounced Republicans for not banning “AR-15 -style rifles. Even when, even when it was one of those weapons that shot Donald Trump just six weeks or so back. Even then, no outcry from Republicans about changing it.” And then repeated the untrue claim that 2024 Republican vice presidential candidate Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) dismissed school shootings as “just a fact of life, a sad fact of life that these school shootings keep happening.”

Lemire said, “There is no widespread movement here to ban these weapons of war, these AR-15 -style rifles. Even when, even when it was one of those weapons that shot Donald Trump just six weeks or so back. Even then, no outcry from Republicans about changing it. In fact, we hear from JD Vance yesterday, saying that it’s just a fact of life, a sad fact of life that these school shootings keep happening.”

7 Cover Stories Big Pharma Forced on MSM to Hide Disastrous Health Consequences of mRNA Clot Shots

If you are wondering why mainstream media is finally publishing some science-based facts about the health detriment caused by commonly used products, that is because MSM is engaged in multi-faceted cover stories while they continue to pretend the Covid-19 mRNA jabs aren’t so bad. Remember, Covid-19 did not kill any more folks than the seasonal flu ever did, it’s just that hospitals across the globe reported anyone and everyone that died during the plandemic as “died with Covid.” This was for the money.

Plus, it was all about co-morbidity “factors,” meaning people with cancer, dementia, diabetes, heart disease and who had heart attacks and strokes were all chalked up to have died from Fauci Flu, while millions of those same folks died from the Covid clot shots.

Though the mad vaccination rush for Covid-19 is fizzling out some, billions of vaxxed people around the globe are suffering and dying from Spike Protein Syndrome, where the billions (trillions with boosters) of spike prion nanoparticles clog and clot their vascular system, causing nearly every system to malfunction, collapse and quit working, including the heart, liver, kidneys, pancreas and ovaries.

So now, as real news of the Clot Shot Pandemic spreads to the naïve naysayers and pro-vax zealots and their loved ones, mainstream media must run cover to protect the vaccine industrial complex, the “holy grail” of medicine and for the next plandemic where Big Pharma and Big Government will certainly push just as hard, if not harder, for every human to commit suicide via vaccination.

BEYOND PARODY: NPR Reports That ‘Eco-Chaplains’ Are Helping People Process Their ‘Climate Grief’

National Public Radio has a new story out this week about ‘Eco-Chaplains’ who are apparently tasked with helping people work through their ‘climate grief’ whatever that is.

If you needed any further proof that Climate Change is a religion for the left, this is pretty much a confirmation.

Isn’t it great that our tax dollars subsidize this hard-hitting journalism?

FOX News reports:

‘Eco-chaplains’ are helping individuals process their ‘climate grief’: NPR report

A new spiritual movement is growing, one designed to help people deal with their negative feelings about the planet being threatened by climate change. That’s according to a report from NPR.

Dubbed “eco-chaplains,” these novel spiritual leaders are being trained to meet a growing need to address “grief, anxiety and burnout” over environmental problems.

“Today, there are chaplains working at the intersection of climate, grief and spirituality in the United States, Great Britain, Australia and Canada. Most develop their own ways of addressing the issue, from one-on-one therapy sessions to online climate grief circles and in-person support groups,” NPR reported.

The report noted how eco-chaplaincy is a 21st century invention, with less than 100 people believed to be practicing it in the western world. Multiple organizations have begun to train individuals in a type of eco-therapy “from Buddhist, Christian, Jewish and secular perspectives.”

How is this even real?

MSNBC calls for boycott of social media platform X, contributor calls for Elon Musk’s prosecution

MSNBC has called for a boycott against the social media platform X, claiming that its owner, Elon Musk, has pushed misinformation relating to the upcoming election.

An opinion piece published by MSNBC calling for the boycott cited a recent report by the nonprofit Center for Countering Digital Hate which claimed to have identified 50 instances where Musk posted false claims about the election. The MSNBC piece also accused Musk of amplifying conspiracy theories and anti-Semitism.

“If every moderate-to-liberal human and organization stopped using the site, that might pressure Musk or his board of directors to stop weaponizing it,” the opinion, written by journalist Jay Michaelson, argued.

“It isn’t even a boycott. Leaving X isn’t like boycotting Coors because it’s too right-wing or Bud Light because it’s too left-wing. Those boycotts are fine — that’s part of capitalism too — but X is different in kind. Because unlike beer, the X product itself is the problem,” Michaelson added.

A recent guest on MSNBC also commented on claims that Musk has pushed misinformation on the platform, suggesting that he should be prosecuted over his exercise of free speech rights on X. Businessman and investor Roger McNamee, appearing on MSNBC’s “The Last Word,” argued that there could be a legal case against Musk due to his statements on social media.

“Like any American, he has a right to his own opinion and he has a right to express his opinion. However, that right is not unlimited,” McNamee stated. He went on to note that Musk has “special limitations that wouldn’t apply to normal people” because his companies, specifically Starlink and SpaceX, are government contractors.
