The Democrat media being Democrats

 


ABC's Linsey Davis admits fact-checking of Trump was because CNN let his statements 'hang' at first debate | Fox News   ..."Davis countered accusations of bias by stating that she and Muir could not catch every misstatement, the Times reported, without noting that none of Harris' incorrect statements received rebukes. 

"Elsewhere in the article, the outlet noted how Davis simply ignored the criticism that she was helping Harris, reporting that she shut off her social media accounts."...


1 vs 3: Trump Had to Debate Kamala and Both of the ABC Moderators   "While the pundits argue over how the candidates performed Tuesday night, NewsBusters can say that the performance of the ABC moderators was abysmal as they forced former President Trump into a three-versus-one fight. The night was filled with contentious moments where the moderators took on Trump with slanted/combative questions and targeted him with six fact-checks, evening inviting Vice President Harris to take part in one. Meanwhile, Harris received ZERO fact-checks.
" 'The first question to Trump came from World News Tonight anchor David Muir, who took Harris’s claims about Trump trade policy as fact and ridiculously asked him if he thought Americans could “afford” a 20 percent “national sales tax” he wasn’t proposing:
The vice president brought up tariffs, you responded. A let's drill down on this because your plan, as what she calls, is essentially a national initial sales tax. Your proposal calls for tariffs, as you pointed out here, on foreign imports across the board. You recently said you might double your plan imposing tariffs up to 20 percent on goods coming into this country. . . .

ABC was obsessed with cheering for Kamala Harris and has given her 100% positive coverage since she entered the race.

 Wacky Moments of Leftist Extremism: The Media's Ultimate Power Trip

UPDATE: The 10 Harris Lies Moderators Let Slide at the ABC Debate (dailysignal.com)   "Presidential debates have often been compared to professional wrestling matches, but the ABC News debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris more closely resembled a handicap match, with Trump taking on three opponents at once: Harris and both moderators.

"As “World News Tonight” anchor David Muir and ABC News Live “Prime” anchor Linsey Davis regularly fact-checked Trump in real time, they allowed Harris to get by with numerous evasions and false statements on such issues as late-term abortions, post-birth executions, government pregnancy monitors, the economy, and haggard canards about “very fine people” at Charlottesville.

"Here are a few of Harris’ misstatements that the ABC News moderators let her get away with." . . .

Animal sacrifices on the rise in Queens with chickens, pigs being tortured in ‘twisted’ rituals

Broc Smith

Matthew Sedacca  "Animal sacrifices are surging in Queens, with chickens, pigs and rats being tortured, mutilated or killed in “twisted” religious rituals in parkland surrounding Jamaica Bay, The Post has learned. 

"In a little over a month, at least nine wounded animals or carcasses have been discovered in the federally-managed Spring Creek Park in Howard Beach and the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge in Broad Channel — including five live pigs with partially severed ears.

"Creatures recovered from the revolting scene also include a near-dead baby rat tied up in a bag with chicken bones; a freshly-decapitated chicken head; a live hen in distress; and a dead dog with its neck snapped." . . .

Journalist travels to Ohio, where more residents corroborate the 'Haitian cat-eating' story... - Revolver News    . . ."Of course, the regime-controlled media did what they do best—quickly jumping into action to claim the Haitian cat-eating story is one big lie. And despite all their resources and contacts, they haven’t bothered to investigate or interview any locals. They’re just toeing the regime line and covering for the failed progressive agenda, as usual.

"Meanwhile, an independent investigative reporter actually did his job, went to Springfield, Ohio, and spoke to residents. He found even more people backing up the story.

"Our good friends at Gateway Pundit are all over this story. They covered the brave independent journalist who actually traveled to Springfield to talk to people on the street—something our worthless mainstream media should have done eons ago.

"Gateway Pundit:  

YouTuber Tyler Oliveira traveled to Springfield, Ohio to investigate the rumors of Haitians eating ducks, geese, and cats.

Tyler, whose YouTube channel has 6.7 million subscribers spent time in Springfield speaking with locals about the Haitian community, and asking them if they know of any Haitians eating dogs or cats.

The answers from the citizens were shocking. Numerous locals accused the Haitians of eating the cats. One man said the cat lady down the street used to have 50 cats and “now she’s lucky if she has five.” . . .

Kamala’s Condescending and Mocking Debate Faces May Be What Voters Remember

 William A. Jacobson (legalinsurrection.com)

"Democrats were “thrilled with her facial expressions, thrilled with how she mocked him visually while he was talking, and that was deliberate. There’s no question that was deliberate—that was part of their plan. I just don’t know how that’s going to play. I don’t think it’s going to play well.”


. . ."Why do Republicans keep going back to their abusers? I think we need a psychological profile, but it’s expected. It’s the norm. This was particularly bad, and it stood in huge contrast to the legitimate job that CNN did back in June for the first debate, but that’s beside the point. We can’t worry about the moderators, though our anger is legitimate—it’s just not enough, because it’s to be expected.

"The other frustration I had was that this was an enormous missed opportunity to show the world, to show tens of millions of people—I don’t know what the final numbers were across all platforms, but clearly in the multiple tens of millions—what a fraud Kamala Harris is. How she’s flip-flopped, how she’s changed her positions, how there’s really nothing to her career.

"And it didn’t come across. The case was not made, and that was extremely frustrating to watch.

"So, it’s not surprising that the snap polling, including by groups that conservatives trust, like Trafalgar, is showing that Harris “won” the debate. And I think that’s true. She was more polished, more prepared; she had her canned barbs. But there’s something strange going on here. While she won the debate, Democrats always come across in snap polling as winning the debates. I saw people sharing on X the history of snap polling after debates with Donald Trump, first with Hillary and then with Biden. In every one of those debates—six in total—clear majorities said that Trump lost the debate. I’m not sure what to read into that.

"So, it was anger at the moderators, frustration that Trump wasn’t making a lot of the points I thought he could have made, but he was being Trump. And I’ve misjudged his appeal to voters and his electoral success so many times, so it is what it is.

"But there’s something else I took away from this—and it’s showing on the screen just to the side of me here. One thing I really noticed throughout was the faces that Harris was making—very condescending, very mocking, very childish, actually. I think that’s the one thing I remember more than anything about the debate." . . .

"I just don’t know how that’s going to play. I don’t think it’s going to play well. I don’t think anybody’s coming out of this feeling warm and fuzzy about Kamala Harris. If her goal was to raise her stature, I don’t think she accomplished that."

Would-be Trump assassin Ryan Routh, 58, of Hawaii echoed Harris, Biden’s anti-Trump rhetoric as he backed Dem candidates

NY Post  "The alleged gunman who authorities said targeted former President Trump while he golfed in Florida Sunday afternoon previously declared on social media that “Democracy is on the ballot” this year, and “we cannot lose” — echoing the anti-Trump rhetoric used by Vice President Kamala Harris and President Biden. Law enforcement sources identified the suspect as Ryan Wesley Routh, 58. Routh, who has a lengthy criminal record from North Carolina, frequently posted about politics and exclusively donated to Democratic candidates and causes dating back to 2019.

Son of alleged would-be assassin Ryan Wesley Routh says his dad hates Trump like 'all reasonable people' but he's never owned a gun and wouldn't do anything bats*** crazy    . . ."He said his father hates Trump as 'every reasonable person does.

‘I don't like Trump either,’ the son added.

But he said his dad is not a violent person and couldn't believe his father would target the president.

Shaped and molded by the likes of MSNBC, the media in general including Hollywood, and the bitter, vitriolic speeches of Joe Biden outside Independence Hallat his SOTU in Congress, and at the DNC convention.

Registered Democrat Routh, 58 is in custody after the terrifying incident at Trump International Club almost exactly two months after a separate assassination attempt against Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.  

. . ."According to his oft-updated X feed, Routh went from voting for Trump in 2016 to supporting Tulsi Gabbard in 2020 to demanding Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswamy form a unity team in 2024.

FEC filings show him donating to everyone from Gabbard to Andrew Yang to Elizabeth Warren to Tom Steyer in the 2020 Democrat primary.

During the George Floyd protests, he was preaching anti-police rhetoric but also used both 'BlackLivesMatter' and 'AllLivesMatter' as a hashtag." . . .

Devine wrote:

Last week Kamala Harris falsely accused Trump of calling Nazis “fine people,” promising a “bloodbath,” and being responsible for “the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.”

She and Biden and surrogates constantly exaggerate the J6 Capitol riot and use it to frame Trump as a “threat to democracy.”

Joe Biden has labeled Trump and “MAGA Republicans” as “semi-fascists” and domestic terrorists.

Tim Walz called Trump a “fascist” and “threat to Democracy” who will “put people’s lives in danger.”

On Saturday Democratic Senator Chris Murphy described Trump as “a candidate explicitly running on the promise of political violence.”

In Orwellian fashion they accuse Trump and his supporters of stoking violence, when the evidence is almost all the other way. . . . 



"Kamala Harris owns Afghanistan disaster — and every other Biden catastrophe" NYP

 


Panic setting in among Kamala’s handlers? 

Kamala Harris on the Afghanistan Withdrawal - WSJ    "Kamala Harris is working hard to hide her policy views from the public, but now and then she opens a window on her worldview, and it isn’t reassuring. One example came Monday on the third anniversary of the terrorist bombing at the Kabul airport that killed 13 Americans trying to defend the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan." . . . 

"But if she has any regrets about President Biden’s policy, she isn’t sharing them. “As I have said,” Ms. Harris noted, “President Biden made the courageous and right decision to end America’s longest war.”

"It’s good to know what she thinks, but it doesn’t reflect well on her judgment as a potential Commander in Chief..."

Biden was hellbent on leaving Afghanistan -- ignoring military advice, NATO objections and Afghan pleas: House report (nypost.com)   "President Biden was so hellbent on getting out of Afghanistan that he rebuked any advice to the contrary, ignored the pleas of the Afghan government and disregarded objections from US allies.

"That was the one of the main takeaways from the House Foreign Affairs Committee’s more than two-year investigation into America’s chaotic, deadly Afghanistan withdrawal, according to a blistering report released Sunday.

" 'During his decades-long tenure as a Delaware US senator, eight years as vice president of the United States and nearly four years as president, Mr. Biden has demonstrated distrust of America’s military experts and advisors and has prioritized politics and his personal legacy over America’s national security interests,” the roughly 350-page report asserted." . . .

Column: Maddow and Stelter Concoct Crazy Theories on Trump's 'Revenge' 

. . ."Trump and his closest lieutenants have openly talked a big game about taking revenge on anti-Trump media outlets, so that concern is legitimate. It's the crazy talk about prison camps for cable-news hosts that sounds cuckoo-for-Cocoa-Puffs. But Stelter thinks it's right to "be thinking aloud."

"That's the pattern of the anti-Trump media. Since 2015, they have constantly "thought aloud" about the wildest conspiracy theories. Trump is a Russian agent. Trump paid Moscow hookers to urinate on a bed the Obamas used. Trump is Hitler, or Mussolini, or whatever autocrat you can find. Trump will kill more millions of people than Hitler, Stalin and Mao combined. (Stelter rolled out the red carpet for that last insanity on his CNN show. Even PolitiFact couldn't avoid flagging that.)

"Right now, the anti-Trump, pro-Biden media is projecting panic about a second term, and imagining nothing about what a second Biden term would look like -- especially whether Biden's mental decline will reach a crisis point. 

"But wait -- consider the first half of Stelter's interview with Phillip. She played a series of clips of conservatives complaining about top Justice Department official Matthew Colangelo joining the Manhattan DA's prosecution of Trump. How hard is it to connect dots here? Easier than the nonexistent "pee tapes" CNN promoted." . . .

Trump Shuts Down Liberal Reporters One-by-One During Epic Presser

 The American Tribune.com  "Former President Donald Trump recently hosted a press conference in California where he addressed the destructive negative impacts of the progressive leadership that has led to the “destruction” of once-great cities such as San Francisco.  During the event, Trump impressively handled a barrage of liberal reporters, shutting down their hostile questions one by one.

"Speaking about the presidential debate last week, one reporter asked Trump, “Some of your own Republican allies have come out and said that you missed the mark, that you miss…” she said, before Trump cut her off, “No, no, no, excuse me,” before going on to insist that he led an impressive performance on Tuesday night against Vice President Kamala Harris.


"Trump continued, “Most of my Republican allies had said I was great in the debate. You’re just like you know a lot of other people at Fox Well, why don’t you say most, 94% of the Republicans said I did phenomenally in the debate, some said that I could have been tougher. I don’t know how I could have been tougher when I said he’s the worst president and she is the worst vice president in the history of our country, 94% of the Republicans and the only one that wouldn’t maybe a Mitt Romney or somebody like that. But we’ve gotten great praise for the debate, and based on the polls like Rasmussen being up six today, the first poll out based on the polls, obviously I did well in the debate, also based on the debate polls, where sometimes had, in one case, 92% win. So you know, look, you come from Fox. You shouldn’t play the same game as everybody else.”

More Takeaways on the Trump – Harris Debate -

 

Facing Off Against Three - The American Spectator

"When elected, Trump knew what he wanted to do and he tried to do it. After the debate, what Harris would do remains a mystery." 

"The debate over the debate is just getting started. Here are a few takes on the ABC News debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.
ABC Lost
"Everyone knew the ABC News debate would be one-sided. Moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis did nothing to push back against that low-bar expectation as they joined Harris to make the debate a three-against-one affair.
"Harris did not respond to Muir’s opening question — are Americans better off than they were four years ago? Rather than answer, Harris led with her standard talking point about growing up as a “middle-class kid.” The moderators’ failure to call her on her non-answer set the stage.
"I don’t know what ABC brass were thinking, but I know what they weren’t thinking: How could the network make the debate look even-handed?
"One more thing: Trump should have expected as much and brought his A game.
Harris Not Asked About Joe?
"Two journalists had a chance to ask Harris about President Joe Biden’s mental capacity after his dismal performance during a June 27 debate with Trump, which ultimately led Biden to end his reelection bid.
"Biden has blamed a cold, over-preparation, and jet lag from an international trip two weeks earlier for his poor performance during that face-off with Trump. ABC should have asked:
"Does she agree?
"Harris regularly lunches with the president, whom Special Counsel Robert Hur had referred to as a “well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”
"Americans have a right to know if the man who will sit in the Oval Office until Jan. 20 is up to the job now.
"The failure to press Harris on Biden’s mental capacity was nothing short of journalistic malpractice.

My two shocking statements

 Eric Utter - American Thinker 

. . ."Truth be told, today’s “progressives” claim to worship diversity, but only of skin color, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation. And, perhaps, depravity." . . .

"I am going to make two statements -- here and now -- that will cause woke Marxists to throw a tantrum and scream into the sky. (If any woke Marxists are reading this, please set down your Palestinian flags and the keys to your Prius hybrids … and move to your nearest safe space. For your own good. I care.)

"First, “diversity” in and of itself is not a “value,” nor a good thing. In fact, very often it is destructive. And it is destroying the formerly United States as we speak. 

"Second, tolerance is where nations go to die.

"Diversity of crime, violence, pain, and injustice is not a good thing. Nor is diversity of ignorance, prevarication, apathy, or evil. Truth be told, today’s “progressives” claim to worship diversity, but only of skin color, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation. And, perhaps, depravity. They themselves have zero tolerance for traditional values, conservative thought and opinion, the freedom for others to disagree with them … and anyone or thing that dares to challenge their power.

"We are tolerating our kids being indoctrinated instead of educated in our schools. We are tolerating the mutilation of their genitalia, and the consequent theft of their sexual health in their adult years … often aided and abetted by their “educators.” We tolerated lockdowns and the mandatory introduction of experimental mRNA vaccines into our bodies. And being told we couldn’t attend the weddings or funerals of our loved ones."

What is racism? Everything, according to "The View" ladies and especially Joy Reid of MSNBC

 Arnold Cusmariu - American Thinker

I watched Joy Reid once and it was enough. It's just all her subjective opinion, a total blowhard, a lot of angry blather. Not news. That's not what I watch news for.
Tony Branco

"I enjoyed Matt Walsh’s movie, as did the audience in the theater where I saw it.  He skewers DIE mythology very effectively, showing with example after example that a good deal of what’s going on here is just plain money-grubbing opportunism.  Also coming through loud and clear is the foolishness of whites who take DIE nonsense seriously.  The self-flagellation scene (no kidding) had me howling with laughter.

"Because a movie is not the place for academic analysis, Walsh could not very well include an interview with someone, such as a philosopher specializing in moral theory, who is qualified to explain that “racism” isn’t just a dangerously loaded term; it has multiple meanings that should be distinguished carefully.  Failing to do so will guarantee that the logical fallacy of equivocation is committed.

"A good person for Walsh to have interviewed on the subject of racism is Thomas L. Carson, who taught philosophy at Loyola University Chicago for many years, now retired.  Among Carson’s several books is Lincoln’s Ethics (Cambridge University Press, 2015), to which I contributed comments in draft — Tom and I went to Brown together.

"Eight concepts of racism can be extracted from definitions Carson presented in a chapter titled “Was Lincoln a Racist?”  Carson says (p. 338) that his definitions “draw on important work in contemporary philosophy.” . . .

. . ."Finally, leftists have been known to charge anyone with “racism” who:

  • Utters a word of criticism against Vice-President Harris.
  • Considers affirmative action immoral.
  • Blames violent crime in Chicago on African-Americans.
  • Believes that welfare is a huge waste of money.
  • Voted for Donald Trump.
  • Is a Republican or supports GOP candidates.
  • Finds statistics linking I.Q. to scholastic achievement credible.
  • Believes that slavery reparations would punish innocent people.
  • Wears a MAGA hat.
  • Disagrees with New York Times editorials on race.
  • Is a member of the National Rifle Association.
  • Thinks George Floyd was largely responsible for his own death.

"These are phony charges according to the eight criteria presented in this article.  Anyone who thinks other criteria merit consideration is welcome to formulate them."

Bad Blood: Taylor Swift's Endorsement of Kamala Harris May Have Backfired Big Time

  Matt Margolis – PJ Media  

"Sixty-six percent of the poll’s participants said they are not Swifties, while 28% reported being a fan and 6% identified as a big fan. The majority of “big fans” were women, and registered Democrats."

RealityBites by Broc Smith

"According to a new poll, Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election might have more of a negative impact on voter support than a positive one.

" 'A new post-debate poll from YouGov released Saturday found that 8% of voters said the pop superstar’s nod is either 'somewhat' or 'much more likely' to convince them to cast their ballot for the Democrat," reports the New York Post. "But a whopping 20% said they are 'somewhat' or 'much less likely' to vote for former President Donald Trump’s opponent now that Swift has spoken."

Celebrity endorsement
"According to reports, Swift’s endorsement resulted in a surge of traffic to vote.gov through Wednesday afternoon. A spokesperson revealed that 337,826 visitors accessed the site after clicking a custom link shared by Swift on Instagram, though it's not entirely clear how many registrations it actually generated or what the party breakdown of those registrations may have been. Some on the left have been jubilant about Taylor Swift's endorsement, which is weird because it's not like the left-wing superstar wasn't going to endorse Kamala at some point.

"I’ve done my own research," Swift claimed, without evidence, "and I’ve made my choice."

"Taylor's political leanings are no secret, and she endorsed Joe Biden back in 2020, so there's no point in pretending she was actually comparing the candidates in order to make a decision. Last month, there were rumors that Taylor Swift would be a mystery performer at the last night of the Democratic National Convention. Beyoncé was another performer linked to the rumor, which turned out to be a con job to boost ratings for Kamala's speech. " . . .

It looks like Taylor is learning the hard way that maybe she should just shut up and sing.

Babylon Bee: Woman Who Made Career Singing About Her Bad Choices Endorses Kamala  . . ."Pop icon Taylor Swift, who has written a veritable library of songs about her being a poor judge of character, made the announcement last night. "I know I'm internationally renowned for regretting every major decision in my life, but this choice will turn out different, I just know it," said Swift. "She's the one!"

"A longtime Democrat, Swift's songwriting is known for chronicling how each man she thought would be the one turned out to be a total scumbag, but she was too blind to see it. More recently, her writing has evolved to explaining how she's mentally unstable and makes terrible, destructive decisions about other things in her life outside of romantic relationships." . . .
