The Media Resembles a Doomsday Cult

Whether it’s because of his outsized, boastful salesman personality, the hair, or the spray tan, the doomsday-is-nigh mainstream media has conducted an obsessive, irrational vendetta against U.S. President Donald Trump. The media treats developments in the news cycle like the end of the world, and doomsday is at hand. Then it’s on to the next controversy du jour. Let’s stipulate the president can sometimes be his own worst enemy by stepping on and/or obscuring his message and accomplishments with needless feuds and overly combative or imprecise rhetoric. Whether you like his demeanor or not, however, the Trump’s MAGA agenda — in fulfillment of campaign promises perhaps like no other president — is all about making America stronger, safer, and more prosperous. read more

Alternative Healthcare: Silicon Valley’s Next Censorship Target?

Conventional western medicine tends to focus on treating symptoms, rather than the underlying condition, with pharmaceutical drugs. These meds often come with severe side effects, causing some patients to seek alternative healthcare. In a New York Times Op-Ed, a cardiologist appears to suggest that the Big Tech search engines should censor any “fake medical news” that raises questions about the efficacy of pharmaceutical drugs. read more

Donald Trump and Robert E. Lee: NBC News Waits Nearly 2 Days to Issue Correction

About 36 years after the story exploded on anti-social media, NBC News finally corrected its story claiming that he described Confederate General Robert E. Lee as “incredible.”

It has become standard practice for media outlets to rush out an anti-Trump story, especially one that appears sketchy on it face, and then take their sweet time about clarifying, correcting, or withdrawing it when necessary, which is often the case.

CORRECTION: An earlier tweet misidentified the general President Trump described as "incredible" at a rally in Ohio. It was Gen. Ulysses S. Grant, not Gen. Robert E. Lee. An attached video clip lacked the full context for Trump's remark. Here is the full clip. pic.twitter.com/NZHj3Q2dHL read more

Weather Channel Meteorologist Reports Live from Wilmington, NC [Video]

The Weather Channel issued a statement:

“It’s important to note that the two individuals in the background are walking on concrete, and Mike Seidel is trying to maintain his footing on wet grass, after reporting on-air until 1:00 a.m. ET this morning and is undoubtedly exhausted.”

Jason Whitlock Rips the LeBron James HBO Show ‘The Shop’ As Fake News

Jason Whitlock probably won’t be appearing on LeBron James’ new “unscripted” TV show The Shop which premiered Tuesday night on HBO.

Set in an apparently mythical barbershop, Whitlock claimed that the NBA superstar who joined the Los Angeles Lakers as a free agent made a fool of himself  in something akin to a minstrel show and fake news.

He described the “inauthentic” presentation as a “profane, primitive, and privileged” look inside the fantasy world of black millionaires sipping goblets of wine in an environment which is far removed from reality.

The host of Speak for Yourself, Whitlock is one of the very few commentators in sports journalism, at least on television, who articulates a different view from the groupthink of the politically correct blue-check Twitter cohort.

Watch the FS1 video clips below and draw your own conclusions.

CNN can’t even compete with HGTV or Nickelodeon

The CNN business decision to go 24/7 anti-Trump has not paid off in the ratings. Apparently President Donald Trump foes including those with Trump Derangement Syndrome have concluded that MSNBC is a more credible option.

From The Daily Caller:

“Fox News marked its 66th consecutive quarter as the most-watched cable television network as rival CNN failed to top even Home and Garden Network and the Discovery Channel…MSNBC finished second in total viewers behind Fox and third in primetime behind Fox and TNT, which received a major boost from the NBA playoffs. Meanwhile, CNN sat at tenth for primetime behind networks like ESPN, HGTV, Investigation Discovery and History. In total viewers, CNN finished seventh behind Nickelodeon and HGTV, among others.’

RATINGS ARE IN!@FoxNews just marked its 66th consecutive quarter as the number one network in cable television.

Meanwhile, @CNN got beat by a network dedicated to marble countertops and open floor plans. https://t.co/fp3W4hSRCU pic.twitter.com/EdvAIsY0vO read more

Crying Honduran Child Separated from Migrant Mother Was Never Separated

A crying little girl whose image was blasted all over the Internet as a symbol of the Trump (and Obama) administration’s harsh family separation policy was never separated from her mother at the southern border. They are currently detained together in McAllen, Tex, where the mom has applied for asylum.

“The moving photo was used by the liberal media and far left activists to pummel the Trump administration for its decision to start strictly enforcing immigration laws at the border,” Gateway Pundit explained.

But wait, there’s more.

From the Washington Post:

“But the girl’s father told The Washington Post on Thursday night that his child and her mother were not separated, and a U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokesman confirmed that the family was not separated while in the agency’s custody.”

The Daily Mail reports the mom left three children behind in Honduras and also was deported from the U.S. in July 2013 according to ICE. Reentry after deportation is a felony.

“[The husband] said that [his wife] set out on the 1,800-mile journey with the baby girl on June 3, at 6 am, and he has not heard from her since…He said he heard from friends that his wife paid $6,000 for a coyote – a term for someone who smuggles people across the border.”

Time nonetheless says that it’s our story, and we’re sticking to it.
