Was just thinking the same thing.

Wasn't that one Congressman's wife extradited for hit and run?

What if Pooplosi, Fraudstein, Schitt and all the others, get implicated in crimes in other countries, that removes them from the "Optics" game here for "Political reasons" excuses?

I Spent a Week Down the Right-Wing Media Rabbit Hole—and Was Mesmerized by It

Philippe Reines

The Daily Beast

(The Devil's Disciples)

 

Isolated. Detached. Disoriented. Disconnected from the real world. Damaged mental health. Even fear of survival.

 

No, I’m not talking about coronavirus quarantine. That’s going fine, considering.

 

I’m referring to my week-long self-imposed experiment: I simulated the content consumption of a Trump voter. What they read, I read. What they watch, I watched.

 

Before being called naïve for being surprised at anything I experienced, my bona fides: over the past three years I’ve appeared on cable news almost 250 times, including 89 appearances on every major Fox News show except Sean Hannity (who’s never invited me; tick tock), 157 on MSNBC, CNN, and others. To the extent there are two bubbles, I’m one of the few who commutes between them. Yet, I wanted to fully immerse myself to see how the other 40 percent live.

 

I abided by three simple rules.

 

First, I could neither watch nor read any news outlet I normally would (as well as Twitter), nor rely on any resource I would to research an issue.

 

Second, I had to spend at least the same amount of time devouring content as I otherwise would. Meaning I could not simply watch 20 minutes of Fox every day and call it a good-faith experiment.

 

Third, I had to pay attention. This was tough because I have a terrible habit of having cable news turned on in whatever room I happen to be in. I don’t actually listen; it’s white noise, a din maintained at a level I cannot make out the words but can tell when Wolf Blitzer’s voice signals distress.

 

The rules meant goodbye to NBC’s Today, hello Fox & Friends. Adios CNN’s The Situation Room, nice to meet you Fox’s America’s Newsroom.

 

But while Fox was the starting point, it wasn’t simply about Fox bingeing. More and more Trump voters don’t, so I didn’t.

 

CNN was replaced by One America News, the newest and potentially most dangerous (evidenced by Don Jr. reportedly seeking to buy it for his father’s post-presidency). At noon, I listened to Rush Limbaugh on the radio rather than watch Andrea Mitchell. At 3 p.m., I listened to Sean Hannity’s radio show instead of, well, my siesta.

 

This also meant I went cold turkey on The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Daily Beast (no offense), Politico, and Axios, replacing them with The Daily Caller, Gateway Pundit, Townhall.com, and The Drudge Report.

 

Typically, my cable-news addiction ends every weekday around 7 p.m. By that point, I’m satisfied I won’t miss out on something big and shift to lighter fare. But for this week, in order to experience the full effect of conservative news addiction, I had to go further than my typical schedule by sprinkling in Fox’s primetime sluggers’ row of Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and Laura Ingraham (though only one night as a single three-hour block; even science has its limits).

 

My journey began, fittingly enough, at 7 a.m. on a Monday with Fox & Friends. It ended the following Sunday night at 9 p.m. with Fox’s “Together” town-hall event (aka, 120-minute paid programming) featuring Trump, Vice President Pence, and Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin.

 

By any reasonable benchmark, evidence of the coronavirus pandemic’s destruction is abundant and incontrovertible. Yet many Trump allies and supporters baselessly challenge the most basic medical realities. Some even contend it is yet another man-made (aka, Democrats) hoax. The truth, though, is simple. More Americans have died from COVID-19 than from the Iraq, Afghanistan, and Vietnam Wars combined and unemployment is higher than it’s ever been in our country—both without end in sight.

 

While the topics of Mike Flynn’s criminal case and Tara Reade’s accusations against Joe Biden garnered significant attention in both time and relentless emphasis, I focused primarily on coronavirus coverage for a simple reason: On this topic, distortions for political purposes causing fractures along partisan lines have actual life and death consequences.

Flash back to John Solomon

Obuttma protecting SOROS.

 

US Embassy pressed Ukraine to drop probe of George Soros group during 2016 election

It turns out the group that Ukrainian law enforcement was probing was co-funded by the Obama administration and liberal mega-donor George Soros. And it was collaborating with the FBI agents investigating then-Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort’s business activities with pro-Russian figures in Ukraine.

 

The implied message to Ukraine’s prosecutors was clear: Don’t target AntAC in the middle of an America presidential election in which Soros was backing Hillary Clinton to succeed another Soros favorite, Barack Obama, Ukrainian officials said.

 

“We ran right into a buzzsaw and we got bloodied,” a senior Ukrainian official told me.

With your theory, so basically, we won't have a President then, until they pony up the fraud results? Then does the MIL take over or Speaker? That will spin the US into a tail spin like no other if that is their plan.
