Race To The Bottom: White House Launches ‘Media Offenders’ Leaderboard

The Trump White House unveiled a scathing new website Friday, “Media Offenders,” complete with a “race to the bottom” leaderboard ranking outlets like The Washington Post as the worst for “false and misleading stories”—flagging everything from exaggerated Trump “sedition” claims to immigrant horror tales as “heinous” manipulations.

The interactive page features an “Offender Hall of Shame” logging repeat offenders and a weekly spotlight, like the current “Media Misrepresents and Exaggerates President Trump’s Calls for Democrat Accountability,” where Democrats and “Fake News” implied Trump issued “illegal orders” to the military—contrasted with “THE TRUTH”: “Every order President Trump has issued has been lawful.”

The site pits outlets like The Washington Post (worst for bias), MSNBC, CNN, CBS News, The New York Times, and Politico in a humiliating tally of “false and misleading stories flagged by The White House.”

Users can sign up for “Offender Alerts” delivered weekly, promising “Scroll for the Truth” on each entry.

The “Offender Hall of Shame” catalogs hits like “L.A. mother says she was taken to U.S. border, being held until she self-deports” and “Trump’s new wall: His push to oust immigrants legally in the U.S.,” debunking them with White House counters.

The spotlight today falls on “Media Misrepresents and Exaggerates President Trump’s Calls for Democrat Accountability,” where outlets like the Boston Globe and The Independent twisted Trump’s push for accountability on Democrats’ military mutiny calls into “execution” threats.

From the site:

“THE OFFENSE”: “The media misrepresented President Trump’s call for Members of Congress to be held accountable for inciting sedition by saying that he called for their ‘execution.’”

“THE TRUTH”: “Democrats released a video calling for service members to disobey their chain of command, and in turn, implied President Trump had issued illegal orders. Every order President Trump has issued has been lawful. It is dangerous for sitting Members of Congress to incite insubordination in the United States’ military, and President Trump called for them to be held accountable.”

This counteroffensive directly exposes MSM’s scripted “talking point” directives amid the info war, where CNN, MSNBC, and NYT puppets cordinate “balanced” spins on Trump’s policies. The leaderboard’s “false and misleading stories” section catalogs such distortions, from immigrant “horror” tales to “Trump wall” exaggerations, proving the “enemies of the people” script is real.

New Yorker magazine ripped for peddling sob story about illegal migrant convicted of murder

The New Yorker has been ripped for peddling a gushing sob story about an illegal migrant and convicted murderer who was recently booted from the United States by the Trump administration.

Jamaican Orville Etoria, 62, was one of five illegal migrants shipped off to Africa in September as part of the Trump administration’s third-country deportation program.

His case was featured in a lengthy feature in the New Yorker this week, months after the Department of Homeland Security ripped a similar story on him in the New York Times as “disgraceful and disgusting.”

A teaser for the New Yorker’s story on X quoted Etoria as crying about how being taken “to another land in shackles and chains” helped him “imagine how the slaves might have felt” — without focusing on his violent record for murder and other gun crimes.

“I see you conveniently forgot to mention here that he was not a US citizen and had spent 25 years in prison for murder,” one person griped on X.

The teaser on X even got a brutal reader’s note adding much-needed context.

It Turns Out DOGE Isn’t Dead — Despite The Media Hysteria

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is still up and running, despite recent reports stating the agency had quietly been disbanded, an administration official told the Daily Caller.

Office of Personnel Management (OPM) Director Scott Kupor said at a recent event that DOGE as a “centralized entity” no longer exists, Reuters reported Sunday. An administration official told the Caller that DOGE is still an operational agency that will continue to execute on its mission until May 2026.

The central office of DOGE continues to have a staff that is assisting with agency projects, the administration official added to the Caller.

Some of those projects include, “improving VA appointment management with integrated scheduling, check-ins, notification and after-visit support”; “advancing responsible AI government-wide through partnership with GSA”; “transforming the non-immigrant visa process to support Olympic and World Cup travel with a more reliable, adaptable digital platform”; and “supporting 18 million students by modernizing the FAFSA system and implementing major student loan and Pell Grant changes.”

Reuters originally reported that DOGE no longer existed and OPM absorbed most of its functions. DOGE’s X account responded to the report and called it false. Acting Administrator to DOGE Amy Gleason posted on LinkedIn further confirmation that the central office is open.

The Covid Inquiry Has Failed to Ask the Most Basic Question: Why Were People Dying?

The explosion of mainstream media headlines following the release of the Hallett Inquiry module two report has concentrated on the conclusion that 23,000 deaths occurred as a result of governmental delays in enforcing lockdowns. While I admire the precision (not 22,000, not 24,000) the 23,000 figure is, as the inquiry states, an estimate based on modelling.

Whose modelling? If that of Neil Ferguson, who had previously been alarmist to the point of hysteria over a foot and mouth outbreak, then the model is fit for the dustbin. Garbage in, garbage out. But Baroness Hallett may not be so wrong – indeed the 23,000 may be an underestimate, but not for the reasons she has wrongly adduced.

SARS-CoV-2 was a novel virus. We now know, but not at the time, that it was accidentally released in China, but the exact mechanisms leading to that need not bother us. What mattered was that it appeared to be both very infectious and potentially fatal. However the fatality numbers are missing something (ignoring whether the figures were of deaths from Covid or deaths with Covid but from something else). Why was it fatal, leading to the acute syndrome of respiratory and other organ failure we now know as COVID-19?

I have read the lengthy report published on November 20th. It is a remarkable catalogue of governmental goings-on, but there is a glaring omission: there is nothing about medicine. There is science, epidemiology, statistics, models, but the fundamental question should have been: what is happening when people get suddenly sick, and how do we treat them if they do? If an infection does not kill people it is usually unimportant: we don’t go berserk over the common cold. If it does we need to know why and fix it. This is not an investigation for epidemiologists, scientists, statisticians, public health doctors, politicians and others who have no experience of managing acute medical emergencies. It is for clinicians – front-line doctors who see an illness, do investigations and arrange treatment.

Where were they? And why has this report completely failed to ask the question – where were the clinical experts?

Politico Accused of Deceptively Altering Polling Data After Hungary’s Ruling Party Took the Lead

The establishment, globalist press outlet Politico is once again facing backlash after its Hungarian “poll of polls” mysteriously shifted overnight—conveniently placing a Brussels-subservient opposition party ahead of Viktor Orbán’s Fidesz-KDNP.

For a brief window, Politico’s own aggregated numbers appeared to show the ruling conservative alliance comfortably ahead heading into much-anticipated, upcoming 2026 parliamentary election, set to be held in April.

The moment these numbers gained public attention, they vanished. And that timing is, unsurprisingly, raising eyebrows, and rightfully so.

The controversy erupted after Balázs Orbán—Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s top political strategist—posted a detailed breakdown of the poll on November 23.

His review highlighted what many conservatives in Hungary already sensed: the patriotic, sovereignist Fidesz-KDNP bloc was still outperforming Péter Magyar’s EU-aligned, globalist Tisza Party.

Orbán (no relation to the PM) credited the governing coalition’s gains to diplomatic wins abroad, extensive grassroots mobilization at home, and persistent disarray within the liberal opposition.

He argued that the data undercut the narrative being pushed by Brussels and its bought-off media allies that Hungary was on the verge of “turning pro-EU.”

But funnily enough, within 24 hours of Balázs Orbán publicizing those numbers, Politico’s tracker suddenly told a very different story.

The same site that had shown Fidesz ahead abruptly updated its methodology, removed certain polls, and elevated the Tisza Party to first place.

Balázs Orbán immediately called attention to the change, accusing Politico of adjusting the scoreboard after his analysis gained traction.

In his follow-up post today, he argued that the German-owned media outlet closely aligned with the EU’s corrupt, increasingly unpopular establishment had quietly erased polls that didn’t match its preferred storyline.

US Peace Plan Bears Striking Resemblance to German AfD Proposal — and Nobody in the Media Wants to Talk About It

US President Donald Trump has once again blown up the scripted narratives of Western foreign-policy elites by unveiling a sweeping 28-point peace plan for Ukraine.

His proposal doesn’t call for endless spending, escalation or for NATO brinkmanship—but for neutrality, security guarantees, territorial arrangements and economic rebuilding.

And here’s the part the media really doesn’t want discussed: Trump’s plan looks strikingly similar to a peace initiative introduced back in 2023 by the AfD in the German Bundestag under foreign policy spokesman Petr Bystron. In other words, the populists had the diplomatic roadmap long before the “serious” people running Europe.

Shared Strategic Premise: Endless War Is a Choice

Trump and the AfD start from the same inconvenient truth—Ukraine will not be “won” on the battlefield. Both proposals reject NATO expansion, call for permanent neutrality, and ban foreign troop deployments inside Ukraine. Both demand international security guarantees, a negotiated ceasefire and a phased military disengagement.

And both reject Washington and Brussels’ childish fantasy that shoveling weapons and cash into a corrupt war zone will magically produce peace.

Converging Approaches to Contested Territories

Even on the most explosive issue—territorial control—both plans take a sober, realistic approach. Trump outlines concrete territorial arrangements.

The AfD plan suggests internationally supervised transitional mandates followed by bilateral negotiations. Different mechanics, same logic: de-escalation, monitoring, and rebuilding instead of mass graves and propaganda slogans. The foreign-policy blob hates it because it acknowledges reality.

Key Differences Highlight Europe’s Failure

The AfD document, written in Europe rather than Washington, is actually the more diplomatic of the two. It doesn’t demand instant recognition of Russian-held territories.

It doesn’t dictate the size of Ukraine’s military or attempt to micromanage internal politics—features in Trump’s draft. Instead, it focuses on negotiations, UN or OSCE mandates and long-term stabilization. But the outcome is the same: stop the dying, stop the spending, stop the geopolitical LARPing.

Klobuchar Delivers Insane Word Salad When Asked What Specific “Illegal” Orders Trump Issued the Military

NBC’s Kristen Welker actually pressed Democrat Senator Amy Klobuchar about the seditious Democrat lawmakers and their viral video urging the military to refuse President Trump’s orders.

Last week, Trump lashed out at the six Democrat members of Congress who urged the military to refuse ‘illegal orders.’

Without offering any specifics, Senators Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) and Mark Kelly (D-AZ), along with Democrat Reps. Maggie Goodlander (NH), Jason Crow (CO), Chris Deluzio (PA), and Chrissy Houlahan (PA) repeatedly stated, “You can refuse illegal orders,” or “You must refuse illegal orders,” in a viral video.

President Trump called for the Democrat lawmakers featured in the viral video to be locked up.

“This is really bad, and Dangerous to our Country. Their words cannot be allowed to stand. SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR FROM TRAITORS!!! LOCK THEM UP??? President DJT” – Trump said on Truth Social on Thursday morning.

Later Thursday morning, President Trump said seditious behavior is punishable by death.

“SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!” Trump said in a follow-up post on Truth Social.

NBC’s Kristen Welker on Sunday asked Klobuchar what specific “illegal acts” the seditious Democrats were referring to in the viral video.

“I wonder, do you know what the specific, illegal acts are that your democratic colleagues were referring to there?” Kristen Welker asked Klobuchar.

Klobuchar could not answer Welker.

She delivered a word salad about the National Guard and a District Judge’s order.

“If their commander were to tell them, hey go out on the streets… and do this and that, that’s not following the order that is in law,” Klobuchar said.

Disgraced ex-news anchor Stephanie Hockridge sentenced in massive COVID fraud scheme — will be jailed with Ghislaine Maxwell

Disgraced ex-TV anchor Stephanie Hockridge will spend the next ten years behind bars for her role in a multi-million-dollar COVID fraud scheme – serving her time in the same cushy lockup as notorious sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell.

The 42-year-old, a former Phoenix TV anchor turned entrepreneur, was sentenced in Texas federal court Friday and ordered to cough up nearly $64 million in restitution for the bogus Paycheck Protection Program loans she helped secure during the height of the pandemic, the Justice Department announced.

Hockridge, found guilty in June of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, will report to prison on Dec. 30.

She will be locked up at Federal Prison Camp in Bryan, Texas — the same minimum-security facility that houses Jeffrey Epstein’s madam, disgraced Theranos fraudster Elizabeth Holmes, and “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” scammer Jen Shah, AZ Family reported.

Jen Psaki and Katie Couric Complain That Media Covering the Trump White House is Too Right Wing 

Katie Couric and former Biden press secretary Jen Psaki recently complained to each other that the media covering the Trump White House is too right wing. They seem to think that partisan actors in the press are going too easy on the Trump administration.

These people really do live in an alternate reality.

Jen Psaki served in a White House with a mental invalid and never fielded a tough question from the press. Psaki was still serving at the White House as a spokeswoman while she was negotiating a deal for a job at MSNBC and was never even asked about it.

Transcript by NewsBusters:

JEN PSAKI: And what they’ve done is they have really, and I read the press briefing a lot because we do a little thing on our show about it sometimes, more and more of the questions in there are by sycophants, or by people who are not asking about news that the American people cares about, but they’re asking about, I mean, literally a question has started more than once, why is Trump in such good shape, right?

Or they are, you know, putting out conspiracy theories. There are people who, and they are getting a lot of the questions. There are some of the people who are in the press pools. This means that reporters who are there to cover MBS being at the White House or to cover Zelensky being at the White House or to ask these questions that Mary Bruce fortunately asked yesterday, there are fewer of them. And that is, you don’t know that and see that unless you’ve lived there, but that’s a huge, huge problem because it’s becoming more of a Kremlin-esque press corps.

KATIE COURIC: Right. And they’ve invited a lot of reporters from very right-wing media outlets—

PSAKI: Yeah.

COURIC: —and you’re right, they usually say, I forget there was one example, like, “Did you ever believe that you would be the peacemaker?” I mean, just, so, and is it, I believe Marjorie Taylor Greene’s boyfriend.

Candace Owens Alleges There is an Active Assassination Plot Against Her Led by French President Emmanuel Macron

Conservative commentator Candace Owens has made a startling claim on social media, accusing French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte Macron, of orchestrating a plot to assassinate her.

Owens currently has the number one podcast in the world.

In a post on X on Friday evening, Owens stated that she was contacted by a high-ranking French government employee who provided what she described as credible information about the alleged scheme.

The post, which has garnered significant attention with over 66,000 likes and millions of views within hours, calls for widespread sharing and urges U.S. authorities to investigate.

Owens wrote: “Two days ago I was contacted by a high-ranking employee of the French Government. After determining this person’s position and proximity to the French couple, I have deemed the information they gave me to be credible enough to share publicly in the event that something happens. In short, this person claims that the Macrons have executed upon and paid for my assassination. Yes, you read that correctly. More specifically, that the green light was given to a small team in National Gendarmerie Intervention Group. I am told there is one Israeli that is on this assassination squad and the plans were formalized.”
