Our bifurcated press



"And our 'fourth estate' - the free press? I would say that died a long time ago. Right now, our press is no better than Pravda - maybe worse." 


Yesterday, Fox News carried the Representative Comer (and company) presser. It related to the bank records, which had been found showing the money transfers coming into shell corporations run by the Biden crime family. Was there the smoking gun which directly implicated the "Big Guy" with the dough? Not yet visible. But I will say this - it looks like the forest fire is all around Joe Biden, and is starting to torch members of his immediate family.

At the same time, George Santos, the rather peculiar rookie congressman from New York, was charged by Merrick Garland for "jaywalking". Normally, not a big deal for people who are not Republicans. But this was HUGE! In fact, the Biden crime family presser, got some major coverage on Fox News, and (ready for it?) - zero minutes on CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN and so forth. But Fox also covered the Santos incident. 

Much has been said about the incredible bias the DOJ has shown to the Democrats. The proof of that has been immutable. The FBI for example, has offered zero support to Comer's investigation. If they had, the "smoking gun" might have been there. But it was not, so Comer has to nibble around the edges, like with banking records. Another blaring example of DOJ weaponization and bias.

But the press is laughable. It is not like they keep their bias hidden anymore - they wear it on their sleeve. To them, in the rare incidents they cover Republican anything, it is like blood sport to them. Just look at the way CNN covered the Trump town hall last night. CNN once again, showed their true colors. Trump was right - the CNN host was a nasty lady. And very unprofessional to boot.

Biden is always yelling into the camera, saying "We need to protect our Democracy!" Well Joe, once again, we have a Republic, and not a Democracy. Next, if we wanted to have a fair country, we would have an unbiased DOJ. Remember that Lady Justice is blindfolded, and we are not to put our finger on her scales of justice. And our "fourth estate" - the free press? I would say that died a long time ago. Right now, our press is no better than Pravda - maybe worse.
