Idiot Media Ignore 40 Years Of History To Pretend Trump Attacks On Cartels Are Unprecedented

The Federalist   

"So other than infantry assaults and shooting down planes and embedding Special Forces soldiers with Latin American militaries in a few hundred armed raids over the course of five-plus decades, it’s a shocking break with American political norms to use lethal force against the cartels. No one else has ever done it before, except for literally every single other president."

"The Trump administration is using lethal strikes against drug cartel boats in the Caribbean, and — as always — journalists are quite confident that nothing like this has ever happened before. He’s murdering drugrunners, executing them without due process, in an unprecedented use of military force! I could show you a dozen recent examples of this argument, but — as always — the dumbest, laziest example could come from just one source." . . .

Why Do Media Think Democrats Are Worth Cheating For? 

"There are no ideologues in the West like those who pose as objective reporters and editors. At times some have internal struggles with the real journalist within. But the propagandist always wins."

 "It would be helpful to voters to know that a “whistleblower” says ABC rigged last week’s debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. But outside of conservative media, it’s being largely ignored, because the legacy press covers its own and as zealously as it does the Democratic Party. Whether the claims are true or not – the existence of the whistleblower remains unconfirmed – the mainstream media’s loyalty to Democrats is uncomfortably similar to the relationship Pravda had with the Central Committee of the Soviet Union’s Communist Party.

" 'To quickly recap, the unnamed whistleblower said ABC agreed to fact-check Trump while ensuring “Harris would not face comparable scrutiny.” The plan was so detailed that “various people were assigned to fact check observations it was perceived candidate Trump would make during the debate.”

“ 'In fact,” says the whistleblower, the “Harris campaign required assurances that Donald Trump would be fact-checked.”

"These agreements were reached on calls that the Trump campaign was not a part of although all discussions regarding the rules and negotiations were supposed to include both sides.

"The affidavit also says Harris was provided with sample questions that, while not the exact questions that would be asked, nevertheless “covered similar topics that would appear during the debate.”

"There were also issues that could not be raised – Joe Biden’s health; Harris’ performance as San Francisco’s district attorney; her brother-in-law and “key campaign adviser” Tony West, who allegedly “fleeced taxpayers for billions to give to left-wing groups and lawyers” – since they would reflect poorly on Harris.

“ 'I have observed a pronounced bias against Donald Trump within ABC News,” the affiant continues, while also noting “many” ABC employees “questioned the clear bias that is well known throughout the company.”

"The network denies the charges, which is expected. It’s not going to issue a statement that says, “Yeah, you caught us, we cheated for the Democrats.”
