NBC News Goes After ‘False Claims’ That Aren’t False in Congressman’s J6 X Post

To hear the mainstream media tell the tale, Jan. 6, 2021, was the worst moment in our nation’s history. While there’s no denying that the incursion on the Capitol was an unfortunate event, the media and the Biden administration’s overreaction to it was even worse.

Four years later as Congress gathers to certify another presidential election, the 2021 incident is still fresh on the minds of leftists. The NBC News liveblog about today’s election certification is full of references to four years ago. One of those references is a ridiculous assertion that Rep. Mike Collins (R-Ga.) made “false claims” in a post on X on Monday morning.

Collins, who has a reputation for humorous posts on X, wrote:

On #ThisDayInHistory in 2021, thousands of peaceful grandmothers gathered in Washington, D.C., to take a self-guided, albeit unauthorized, tour of the U.S. Capitol building. 

Earlier that day, President Trump held a rally, where supporters walked to the Capitol to peacefully protest the certification of the 2020 election. During this time, some individuals entered the Capitol, took photos, and explored the building before leaving. 

Since then, hundreds of peaceful protestors have been hunted down, arrested, held in solitary confinement, and treated unjustly. Countless hours and taxpayer dollars have been spent pursuing innocent grandmothers and raiding President Trump’s home, while terrorists and millions of illegal immigrants continue to cross our nation’s borders, causing havoc in our communities. 

Thankfully, President Trump has announced that, on day one of his presidency, he will grant pardons to nonviolent defendants.

Full disclosure: Collins is my congressman, and I think the world of him. I also enjoy his sense of humor on social media.

Disgraceful: MSNBC Host Trashes US Veterans…

MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell elicited backlash Friday for declaring that US veterans represent a greater terror threat than the undocumented illegal immigrants crossing over the border in their hundreds of thousands per month.

Reacting to the two new year’s day terror attacks on his program watched by practically nobody now, O’Donnell declared “The simple fact is, this country has suffered more deadly terrorism at the hands of American-born citizens who are veterans of the United States military than people who have crossed into this country at the southern border.”

“It is very clear from the evidence that if you want to worry about terrorism in this country, the United States Army is a much bigger problem than the southern border,” he further proclaimed.

O’Donnell then referred to Timothy McVeigh, the domestic terrorist behind the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995, to argue that American veterans have carried out more violent acts in the US than illegal immigrants have.

“Timothy McVeigh parked a truck outside that building loaded with explosives in an act of homegrown American terrorism,” O’Donnell stated.

Reporter Conveniently Given Exclusive Access to New Orleans Terrorist’s Squalid Trailer Home: Bomb-Making Station and Open Quran Which Discusses Martyrdom

A recent terror attack in New Orleans was carried out by Shamsud-Din Jabbar, an ISIS-inspired individual who killed 14 people on Bourbon Street.

The FBI investigation revealed that Jabbar, a former US Army veteran and IT professional, had a bomb-making station in his Houston home and posted disturbing videos before the attack.

His background includes military service, successful IT career, failed marriages, and financial struggles before his radicalization.

“First and foremost, let me be very clear about this point: this was an act of terrorism. It was premeditated and an evil act. This was obviously a critical incident, and with that, lots of information and tips come pouring in from law enforcement, first responders, and the public,” FBI Deputy Assistant Director Christopher Raia said in a press conference.

“We also have a scene off Mandeville Street, where we’re currently searching. FBI and ATF agents have secured that house, and that location is being searched for potential evidence.”

“Three phones linked to Jabbar have been recovered, and digital media exploitation is a priority to see what is on the devices and determine if there are any other potential leads. Additionally, we have recovered two laptops and are currently reviewing them for any potential leads. Those laptops were recovered at the Mandeville address,” said Raia.

Recall, following the attack, the FBI announced that they are carrying out “law enforcement activity” in Houston, Texas, in connection to the New Orleans terrorist attack.

“FBI Houston and the Harris County Sheriff’s Office are currently conducting law enforcement activity near the intersection of Hugh Road and Crescent Peak Drive in north Houston. We have secured a perimeter in that area and are asking people to avoid the area. FBI Houston personnel and specialized teams will be on-site for several hours. This activity is related to this morning’s New Orleans attack, but due to the ongoing nature of the investigation, no further information can be provided,” the statement reads.

Now, investigations into Jabbar’s Houston residence revealed a bomb-making station in his bedroom, with various chemicals and equipment associated with explosive devices.

Notably, a Quran was found open to Verse 9:111, which discusses martyrdom. Authorities also discovered improvised explosive devices in coolers placed near the attack site, indicating premeditation.

Appeals Court Permanently Blocks Joe Biden’s Effort to Revive Obama-Era Net Neutrality Rules

A federal appeals court dealt a huge blow to the Biden Regime’s effort to revive Orwellian net neutrality rules.

A three-judge panel of the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday permanently blocked Biden’s effort to restore net neutrality rules.

In 2021, Joe Biden signed an executive order to revive the Obama-era’s war on independent media.

The federal appeals court cited the US Supreme Court’s case dubbed Loper Bright in its ruling.

“The court cited the Supreme Court’s June decision in a case known as Loper Bright to overturn a 1984 precedent that had given deference to government agencies in interpreting laws they administer, in the latest decision to curb the authority of federal agencies. “Applying Loper Bright means we can end the FCC’s vacillations,” the court ruled,” Reuters reported.

Palestinian Authority Bans Al Jazeera From West Bank For ‘Stirring Strife’

The Palestinian Authority (PA) announced Wednesday the suspension of Al-Jazeera’s operations in the Palestinian West Bank, citing alleged violations of Palestinian laws and ‘interference’. 

The major Qatar-based outlet is accused of “manipulation, interference in internal affairs, and dissemination of misleading and incendiary reports,” according to a statement in the official Palestinian news agency WAFA.

The broadcaster has been further blamed for “reports that were deceiving and stirring strife” in the context of the Palestinian Authority’s (PA) effort to crackdown on unauthorized armed groups.

For the past more than two weeks the PA has laid police siege to the Jenin refugee camp in an effort to root out the Jenin Brigade and associated factions. The PA has called the groups “outlaws” and “Iranian gangs” which are operating in the camp.

At least nine Palestinians have been killed as a result of the assault, including reportedly children. The PA had already banned Al Jazeera from reporting from inside Jenin amid the crisis.

Al Jazeera issued a Thursday statement saying it was “shocked by this decision” and is urging an immediate reversal of the temporary ban, for which there hasn’t been a timetable. It has confirmed its coverage has moved to Jordan.

The outlet has charged the PA with “an attempt to hide the truth about events in the occupied territories, especially what is happening in Jenin and its camps.”

Months ago Israeli commandoes raided Al Jazeera’s West Bank offices and seized equipment and ordered the bureau closed.

As early as October 2023, soon after the Oct.7 Hamas terror attacks, Israel moved to ban Al Jazeera from having offices in Tel Aviv or operating anywhere in Israel.

The Lie of the Year Was Joe Biden’s Decline

About last year: PolitiFact, the independent fact-checking website run by the Poynter Institute, bestowed another odious distinction on President-elect Donald Trump. The organization dubbed a statement uttered by Trump and his running mate J.D. Vance the “Lie of the Year.”

PolitiFact has christened a Lie of the Year every year since 2009, and in only two of those years did statements made by Democrats earn the top prize. In 2011, PolitiFact slammed Democrats for claiming that Republicans would vote to end Medicare, and in 2013, the organization concluded that President Barack Obama’s solemn promise—”If you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan”—was plainly untrue. But in every other year, PolitiFact has singled out right-leaning purveyors of mistruths.

This year is no different. In 2024, PolitiFact’s Lie of the Year is the claim by Trump that Haitian migrants in an Ohio town were “eating people’s pets.”

“With a brazen disregard for facts, Donald Trump and his running mate repeatedly peddled a created story that in Springfield, Ohio, Haitian immigrants were eating pet dogs and cats,” observes the organization.

The Republican ticket’s disregard for the facts in this case was indeed brazen. It was completely untrue that Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, were eating people’s pet dogs and cats. What happened was that various concerns about migrants supposedly hunting birds in public parks in Springfield, Ohio, got lumped together with an unrelated story of someone killing a pet cat in a completely different town. It’s a textbook example of why you shouldn’t automatically believe everything you see on social media. Trump and Vance did real harm here, and it’s absolutely fair to call them out for smearing the immigrant population of Springfield, Ohio.

But was this really the Lie of the Year?

MSNBC Finally Admits Biden Flooded US With Illegals

No matter how much you hate the leftist media and MSNBC in particular, it’s not enough.

Now the Democrats have lost everything and Biden is leaving office, they are finally admitting that his disastrous administration flooded the country with illegal immigrants and how it “was not Biden’s finest moment.”

The grumpy chart guy said,“The border was not Biden’s finest moment, frankly. You can see what happened here. And Trump is not wrong when he talks about how border crossings work quite low. They’re running about 74,000 a month when he left office and they, in fact, did shoot up. Some of it was some things Biden said and some ways that they put a moratorium, for example, on deportations. But in fact, we did get up here almost to 300,000 a month.”

Yeah we know.

Read Between the Lies: A Pattern Recognition Guide

When Avril Haines, Director of National Intelligence, announced during Event 201’s pandemic drill in 2019 that they would “flood the zone with trusted sources,” few understood this preview of coordinated narrative control. Within months, we watched it unfold in real time—unified messaging across all platforms, suppression of dissent, and coordinated narrative control that fooled much of the world.

But not everyone stayed fooled forever. Some saw through it immediately, questioning every aspect from day one. Others thought it was just incompetent government trying to protect us. Many initially accepted the precautionary principle—better safe than sorry. But as each policy failure pointed in the same direction—toward more control and less human agency—the pattern became impossible to ignore. Anyone not completely subsumed by the system eventually had to confront its true purpose: not protecting health or safety, but expanding control.

Once you recognize this pattern of deception, two questions should immediately arise whenever major stories dominate headlines: “What are they lying about?” and “What are they distracting us from?” The pattern of coordinated deception becomes unmistakable. Consider how media outlets spent three years pushing Russiagate conspiracies, driving unprecedented social division while laying the groundwork for what would become the greatest psychological operation in history. Today, while the media floods us with Ukraine coverage, BlackRock positions itself to profit from both the destruction and reconstruction. The pattern becomes unmistakable once you see it—manufactured crises driving pre-planned “solutions” that always expand institutional control.

Mainstream media operates on twin deceptions: misdirection and manipulation. The same anchors who sold us WMDs in Iraq, promoted “Russia collusion,” and insisted Hunter Biden’s laptop was “Russian disinformation” still occupy prime time slots. Just as we see with RFK, Jr.’s HHS nomination, the pattern is consistent: coordinated attacks replace substantive debate, identical talking points appear across networks, and legitimate questions are dismissed through character assassination rather than evidence. Being consistently wrong isn’t a bug—it’s a feature. Their role isn’t to inform but to manufacture consent.

Comedian Roasts 2024 on CNN Asking Why Trump Shooter Had No Silverware, Why So Many Presidents’ Chefs Dead 

Comedian Whitney Cummings joined CNN’s New Year’s Eve broadcast Tuesday and marked the end of 2024 by reciting a list of controversial topics the corporate media has suppressed.

At one point during the event, Cummings launched into a rant, declaring, “Since I only have a minute left live on establishment media, why don’t we just say a bunch of things that we know that they’ll never cover?”

She proceeded to highlight several news items the mainstream media has largely ignored – with CNN surprisingly allowing her to stay on air to share them.

“Trump’s shooter didn’t have any silverware in his house, no one thought that was weird?” Cummings asked quickly, referring to reports shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks’ home was “clean like a medical lab” when searched.

“Are we still rolling?” Cummings asked, going on to note, “The Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia put money into Disney — so just know there won’t be any girl characters in the next ‘Cars’ movie.”

“Okay, are we still rolling? This is wild,” Cummings remarked, before asking, “Okay, Why so many presidents’ chef’s died? Weird.”

Over the past decade, two White House chefs – Walter Scheib, who worked under ex-Presidents Bill Clinton and George Bush, and Tafari Campbell, who served the Obama family – both died by drowning.

Ad Nauseum: A Look at Who’s Scripting the News

As an author, having blurbs—those little endorsement quotes—on your book cover can really help drive sales. To be effective, blurbs should be truthful, convincing, and compelling, and ideally attributable to a recognizable, noteworthy, and otherwise unbiased name.

For example, this would be an epic book blurb:

“Immediately after reading Jenna’s latest masterpiece, I invented a new color, taught myself to speak dolphin, and reengineered the concept of time so I could go back and not post last week’s crude, embarrassing tweet. I didn’t just buy this book; I memorized it.” — Elon Musk

Now imagine you’re perusing the New Releases at Barnes & Noble (do those even exist anymore?) and you spot this on a cover:

“This is the best book ever written. Everyone should buy it.” — The Author

At the risk of insulting anyone’s intelligence here, the latter would be laughably ineffective because of course the author is going to say that. It would sort of be like Bill Gates, for random example, encouraging you to take a worthless, possibly lethal vaccine that he just so happens to make a boatload of dough off of, or Quentin Tarantino joining the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for the sole purpose of nominating himself for Best Director. Just a wee conflict of interest, wouldn’t you say?

If conflicts of interest had a mascot, it would be pharmaceutical advertising. Media outlets, desperate for those massive ad spends, are about as likely to run a negative (albeit 100% accurate) segment about their Pharma paymasters as a feral cat is to give cuddling lessons. Instead, all day long, viewers are bombarded with flashy commercials pimping the “miracle” drug du jour that at best is inferior or ineffective and at worst, could be lethal. And if they turn out to be either of those things, do you think any major network is going to chop off the hand that feeds it?
