Things You’ll Never See in the Mainstream Media

I haven’t watched an episode of Law & Order SVU in years. While channel surfing last night, I came across it last night for just about two minutes. The episode was called “Fake News.” They were confronting a blogger who said one man’s voice is as powerful as anybody else’s. They started to claim yeah, but the mainstream media tell the truth. Then I remembered why I quit watching this show. Every damn week was another example of bashing republicans and our values. [CtH: Ditto me.]

They would rather turn in their American Express gold cards than give Trump credit for anything. This is the same bunch that had to twist the truth beyond recognition by completely ignoring the facts about what a dickhead Obama was.

THEY WON’T BOTHER MENTIONING STUFF LIKE THIS:
Foxconn to build $10B plant in Wisconsin employing up to 13,000

In what’s being called the largest economic development project in state history, Taiwanese electronics giant Foxconn plans to build a $10 billion plant in Wisconsin that would create liquid-crystal display panels and employ as many as 13,000 people.
The planned Wisconsin plant is expected to open in 2020 and be part of a 20 million-square-foot campus on at least 1,000 acres — a location Gov. Scott Walker has dubbed “Wisconn Valley.”
The state would offer $3 billion in economic incentives, Walker said.

WINNING! Walmart Unveils Manufacturing Plan to Create 1.5 MILLION New AMERICAN Jobs

While the media is obsessing over President Trump’s tweets and so-called Russia collusion, the U.S. economy is growing stronger and stronger. Today, Walmart announced it is aiming to create a whopping 1.5 million manufacturing jobs in the United States.

Walmart Inc. (WMT) met with government and business leaders in Washington on Wednesday to unveil a plan to spur growth in domestic manufacturing efforts that company executives say will create an estimated 1.5 million new jobs in the United States.
The meeting included a discussion with key individuals on both sides of the aisle about the biggest challenges the U.S. manufacturing sector currently faces. Using an analysis by the Boston Consulting Group and Walmart sourcing data, the company crafted a 10-point plan to “recapture” an estimated $300 billion in imported consumer goods, stoking job growth in the process.

Amazon seeks to fill 50,000 warehouse jobs, including hundreds in Kent

The e-commerce giant says next Wednesday it will welcome applicants at 10 of its warehouses, including the one in Kent, where it plans to hire hundreds. Amazon says it will make “thousands” of job offers on the spot.
The move underscores the continued rapid growth of Amazon’s fulfillment operations. The company has invested billions building new facilities to catch up with increasing customer demand for the products sold on its website, and to keep its promises of ever-quicker delivery.
Amazon says that most of the of the jobs available are full time and entail picking, packing and shipping customer orders. Some 10,000 of the opportunities on offer are part-time roles at sorting centers, smaller facilities that sift through packages shipped from Amazon’s warehouses and send them to local post offices.

How bad has Trump Derangement Syndrome gotten? MSNBC just reached #1 in prime time
And now, with outrage (or fauxrage in many cases) being the top menu item on the TV menu, MSNBC seems to be reaping the rewards. And if this isn’t a blip on the radar, it’s truly phenomenal. For the first time in the network’s entire history, they finished the week number one in total viewership in prime time, not just among the cable news channels, but for all cable networks.

[CtH: This is really depressing!]

SCREAMING FAR LEFT PROTEST MOB Disrupts US Senate Vote on Obamacare

When the vote was announced far left protesters began screaming loudly, “Kill the Bill, Don’t Kill Us!”  It took the Sergeant of Arms and federal officers SEVERAL MINUTES to remove the far left mob.  This was unprecedented.

A long history of violence among U.S. liberals
Recently on HBO’s Real Time, Bill Maher had this to say about the attack on Republican legislators: “We would never really think this would happen on the left. We think of the right as the people who pick up guns and do crazy things like this.”
And that’s just what they think. Liberals are peaceful and conservatives are violent. Even those who take pride in their political incorrectness repeat it. But you don’t have to be an American historian to know how little it holds up to the facts.

Trump Mocks ‘Young’ Protester: ‘Going Home To Mommy’
During Trump’s remarks at the Ohio rally — a state he won during the election — a protester stood up in the crowd with a large Soviet flag, and the crowd began pointing to the protester.
“If you don’t point no one’s gonna even know he’s here,” Trump mocked. “Weak voice. Weak voice.”
An attendee behind the protester ripped the flag out of his hands and the protester was dragged out of the event by police.
“Boy, he’s a young one, he’s going back home to mommy,” Trump said as the crowd cheered and laughed. “Boy, he’s in trouble. He’s in trouble.”

Friday Wrapup

The thing about being retired is that Friday has no real significance and we’re generally happy on Monday. We have the freedom to do whatever we want without asking permission. Miss Olivia pitched her first game last night and RJ has his first Pony League Tournament game tonight. I just wish the rain hadn’t swollen the river over flood stage so we can’t get the boat in yet. Problems, problems.

OK, ENOUGH ABOUT BRAGGING ON MY GRANDKIDS. DOWN TO THE DEPRESSING STUFF.

Trump nominates round of district court judges

President Trump unveiled a round of 11 judicial nominees Thursday for openings on district courts across the country.

Trump announced his intent to fill openings on district courts in Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina and Oklahoma.

As of July 13, there were 108 current vacancies on district courts with six nominees pending, according to the Administrative Office of the United States Courts’ website.

Police Funeral: “Where are the demonstrations for this single mom?”
NYPD Commissioner’s powerful message on the death of Officer Miosotis Familia.
IT IS A TRAVESTY THAT THIS CITY IS RUN BY A LOWLIFE WHO ENJOYS POPULARITY AMONG THE REPTILES WHO CRAWL AROUND THE STREETS.
The commissioner asked why people in such a politically active city like New York aren’t protesting in the streets against this senseless killing.

“So, where are the demonstrations for this single mom, who cared for her elderly mother and her own three children? There is anger and sorrow, but why is there no outrage? Because Miosotis was wearing a uniform? Because it was her job?” he asked. “I simply DO NOT accept that.”

He Fights

I REMEMBER IN 1864 ABRAHAM LINCOLN WAS ASKED WHY HE DID NOT DISMISS U.S. GRANT FOR DRUNKENESS.
HIS ANSWER WAS: ‘I CANNOT SPARE THIS MAN…HE FIGHTS.’
(That’s not from the article…I just knew it.)
We Right-thinking people have tried dignity. There could not have been a man of more quiet dignity than George W. Bush as he suffered the outrageous lies and politically motivated hatreds that undermined his presidency. We tried statesmanship. Could there be another human being on this earth who so desperately prized “collegiality” as John McCain? We tried propriety – has there been a nicer human being ever than Mitt Romney? And the results were always the same.

This is because, while we were playing by the rules of dignity, collegiality and propriety, the Left has been, for the past 60 years, engaged in a knife fight where the only rules are those of Saul Alinsky and the Chicago mob.

Dan Rather Resurrects Disgraced Career As Trump Critic

In August 2016, roughly four months before the election, Rather went on what USA Today described as an “epic Facebook rant” after Trump said the “Second Amendment people” would keep Hillary Clinton from abolishing the Second Amendment. Many in the media portrayed that comment as a threat. Rather’s Facebook post — in which he urged journalists to abandon objectivity in covering Trump — received approving coverage in the media.

Fashion Notes: Melania Trump Wears Custom Red-White-and-Blue Frock For Dinner in Paris

Melania, always one for custom-made high fashion frocks, wore a bespoke Hervé Pierre red, white and navy blue cocktail dress for the formal dinner, paired with black stilettos and perfectly tousled hair.

The dress takes inspiration from the Americana and French flags, but also is unusual in its bodice origami-like detailing, which resembles a basket of wheat.

So Long, Joe

The Republican party has suffered its worst loss since Barry Goldwater. The recovery may be a long and arduous process. That shining light of conservatism, that stalwart of Reagan republicanism Joe Scarborough has renounced his party affiliation and now claims he’s an “independent.” The tragic news came during an appearance with his dominatrix, Mika what’s-her-name, on the Slimeball Colbert Show last night.
Actually, he parlayed his brief moment of notoriety during the Clinton impeachment hearings when he was occasionally humorous into a permanent gig at that liberal toilet known as MSNBC. He tacitly renounced everything he claimed to believe in, but in reality it was short step.

Scarborough makes Trump-Nixon analogy morning after he declared his departure from GOP
Note: Scarborough’s Trump-Nixon analogy comes the morning after he declared on the Colbert show that he was leaving the Republican party. Why would a principled person leave, rather than stay and fight for his beliefs? Could it have anything to do with Scarborough’s own presidential ambitions?
This column names Scarborough as a possible “independent” who could win the White House in 2020. Was Joe’s ditching of the GOP a prelude to a presidential candidacy?

BIASED NEWS: Senator Bob Menedez is two months away from a 22-count felony trial. Menedez is accused of taking gifts from a man found guilty in federal court in April of pocketing more than $90 million in Medicare payments. And yet, this is not making national news at all.

The world’s greatest provocateur

There are many discussions about the President Trump “wrestling” CNN tweet, but it’s time to get to the heart of the matter: that the tweet was brilliant, anticipating a ridiculously overwrought reaction by the legacy media, and boy, did they deliver.

It’s one thing to say the media is fake and can’t be trusted, and quite another to show it to the American people. So consumed with their loathing of the president, some in the legacy media can’t see past themselves and did exactly what you’d expect the pathologically obsessed to do: pathologically obsess.

While everyone else was laughing at the tweet of a staged pro-wrestling stunt from years ago, various CNN news actors insisted their lives were now at risk. This proved the president’s point that the network is not serious, on a singular mission to destroy the president, and ergo can’t be trusted to report what really matters to the American people.

The president remains one step ahead of those who work to harm his ability to do his job, creating an environment where the American people can decide for themselves who they can trust. And it’s apparently not the media. A new NPR/PBS/Marist poll found just 30 percent of Americans have trust in the media, which is double-digits lower than the president’s latest Rasmussen approval rating.

There is another revelation brought to us by the absurd reaction by the mainstream media: their hypocrisy.

We’ve been told for weeks that a play in Central Park featuring the slaughter of Mr. Trump was “just art.”

Just after Kathy Griffin, who worked for CNN at the time, distributed a picture of her holding up a bloody, decapitated head of Mr. Trump ISIS-style, CNN’s Jake Tapper hosted a panel which insisted it was much ado about nothing. …

Well, fast forward just a few weeks, and CNN suddenly does care, and did find time to accuse the president of inciting violence against them — because of a staged wrestling meme where their logo gets jumped. Got it.

Ruh Roh!

Some guy made a GIF showing Trump wrestling with CNN and posted it on Reddit.

CNN got their tender, thin-skinned panties in a bunch, tracked the guy down, and forced him to publish an apology!

Notice how they say “Exclusive”, like they’re PROUD of the fact that their multi-billion dollar conglomerate targeted a private citizen for posting a funny piece of political satire on the internet.

2017_07 04 CNN exclusive tweet

CNN also threatened to dox* the offender if he should ever step one toe out of line again.

2017_07 04 CNN threatens dox

*dox (däks) search for and publish private or identifying information about (a particular individual) on the Internet, typically with malicious intent.

IOW, “We accept your apologies but reserve the right to completely ruin your life.”

And the media wonders why we hate them.

Hey CNN, did you check with your legal department before you threatened to dox this guy? Ummmmmm … that would be a no.

Ted Cruz posted the following in a series of tweets:

Troubling. I assume CNN’s lawyers are examining GA § 16-8-16 Theft by extortion. If CNN constructively obtained the gif-maker’s IP, it’s a GA crime if they threatened to “Disseminate any information tending to subject any person to hatred, contempt, or ridicule.”

Another relevant crim law: NY § 135.60: “A person is guilty of coercion in the second degree when he…induces a person to abstain from engaging in conduct in which he…has a legal right to engage…by means of instilling…a fear…the actor will expose a secret or publicize an asserted fact, whether true or false, tending to subject some person to hatred, contempt or ridicule.”

Plus, the guy CNN targeted was apparently not the person who originated the content. According to an investigation by BuzzFeed, the original piece was a YouTube video with audio. The guy CNN targeted turned part of it into a GIF.

Even worse, it seems that CNN knew the GIF wasn’t the original, but they couldn’t find whoever made the YouTube video, so they stomped their big old jackboot down on the neck of the GIF maker.

CNN used to be about journalism. Now it’s just a fascist organization publishing left-wing agitprop.*

In case you haven’t heard yet,CNN,the ‘most trusted name in news’ was so incensed by the trump bodyslam video they found the Reddit user claiming responsibility for it and threatened to out him if he didn’t apologize.It took less than 24 hours.Consider:they’ve searched desperately for 8 months for any kind of evidence of collusion between Trump and Russia…nothing.Still,Obama hack Robert Meuller has assembled an all star team of political assassins to find anything to charge him with.

How CNN found the Reddit user behind the Trump wrestling GIF


The apology came after CNN’s KFile identified the man behind “HanA**holeSolo.” Using identifying information that “HanA**holeSolo” posted on Reddit, KFile was able to determine key biographical details, to find the man’s name using a Facebook search and ultimately corroborate details he had made available on Reddit.

On Monday, KFile attempted to contact the man by email and phone but he did not respond. On Tuesday, “HanA**holeSolo” posted his apology on the subreddit /The_Donald and deleted all of his other posts.

CNN is not publishing “HanA**holeSolo’s” name because he is a private citizen who has issued an extensive statement of apology, showed his remorse by saying he has taken down all his offending posts, and because he said he is not going to repeat this ugly behavior on social media again. In addition, he said his statement could serve as an example to others not to do the same.

CNN reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change.

Critics pounced on CNN’s decision:

Monday Video Montage

Unless you’ve been camping in Outer Mongolia you have no doubt heard of Liberal Land’s collective outrage that a president would actually hit back instead of just accepting the nonstop assault on him, his administration, and his family. In their zeal to inflict as much pain as humanly possible they have ignored the fact that much of the compact with the American people that he made as a candidate he’s getting fulfilled. Withdrawing from TPP, pulling US out of the Paris climate hoax, bringing more real jobs here, building the military, stemming the hordes of illegals flooding across the border, and Obamacare will soon, hopefully, be officially buried.
Some may consider the mud fight the president is engaging in with the media gasbags to be beneath the dignity of the office. People like me are just glad to see someone who will fire back at his antagonists. If you haven’t seen the source of the left’s collective outrage, here it is:

James O’Keefe went directly to Zucker’s residence in New York to confront him Thursday morning..

He asked Jeff Zucker, “Do you have a comment, sir, about the Russia story?”

Instead of answering, he jumped into the vehicle waiting for him while his bodyguard and doormen blocked him. James O’Keefe said it was ‘cowardly’.

Steven Crowder goes UNDERCOVER: ‘Stealing’ Illegal Immigrant’s Jobs

Steven Crowder took to the streets undercover to find out if illegals were really doing the jobs that Americans didn’t want to do. He says the results will genuinely shock you. Also it’s pretty funny!


Wow $45,000 or higher a year tax free is pretty dang good. I have friends and family members that wish they could bring home that kind of money and they’d be fine with paying taxes on it!

I loved it when he started down bidding the illegals, but it was easy because most of them wouldn’t work below a certain dollar amount, as he showed with that one guy who wouldn’t work for less than $160 a day.

And that last part where he had a group in the back of his truck…well that was just funny. Also a little sad, but still funny. LA RAZA!
