Media are pushing the hell out of shootings to help Democrats pass gun control. Well, not all shootings. Only the shootings that help their political cause.
Inner city gun violence to include young men gunned down in autonomous zones dedicated to George Floyd, are off limits.
"No motive at this time" means it doesn't fit the media narrative. When you've been around this long, you learn to speak the language.
Exactly.
Truth be told, the literature on the impact of covering mass shootings is very clear. So clear, in fact, a thinking person can't help but to wonder what media motives really are.
"Given the wealth of data collected by academics and law enforcement agencies studying the phenomena, it’s time for Americans to demand media outlets acknowledge their role in school shootings and mass killings." peoplespunditdaily.com/policy/2018/03…

This is a ridiculous take from someone still willing to carry water after the most embarrassing 24 hours this so-called superpower has experienced in a very long time.
The Chinese publicly called us weak to our faces, something they wouldn’t dare do under the last president.
1) This is not a “Covid relief” bill. Less than 10% is related to Covid.
It’s a kickback to Biden/Democratic financial supporters.
Less than 5% appropriated for schools *can* be spent in FY21, forget about whether it will.
Trump already funded states to safely reopen schools.
2) Meanwhile, fed employees with distance learning children will get weekly what you will get in total “stimulus”.
That’s essentially an immoral bribe for mostly leftwing parents to further fail their own children.
All for a couple thousand.
We’re disgusting.
In a gross public union kickback, and bribe to betray their kids, fed workers with children in distance learning can get $1400 WEEKLY for as many as 15 weeks.
The rest of American parents struggling to pay the bills and keep their children from falling out, will get jack $#!t.
Remote learning is a disaster for ALL children, not just "Black and brown". The the focus on certain races over others 1) reveals a major defect in how white urban liberals think, and 2) because of that defect, became the story and distracted from the actual issue.
Truth be told, @nytdavidbrooks and others who are now doing a U-Turn on school closures succumbed to panic and groupthink last spring. They allowed their judgement and reason, as well as ideology and political preferences, to cloud their reason.
1. Well, this is the most honest take I've heard in a long time out of anyone from the media.
He has gotten stronger, his ideas have gotten stronger. But it's easier to mistake because some of them have gotten quieter, and traditional pollsters will never ID them.
2. There was always synergy between the rightwing and leftwing populist movements, and the clever albeit dishonest use of racially charged politics by leftwingers like Warren and Sanders have obfuscated that.
But they're going to lose credibility showing what frauds they were.
3. Where will they go during what is becoming more evident by the day, a corporatist authoritarian administration?
Not the Democratic Party. Hell, not even the traditional Republican Party.
So, yes, Trump's base absolutely can get much stronger, and already is more diverse.
The staffer for @CoriBush who was yelling like a psycho at @mtgreenee sounded a lot like that lunatic we saw assault a woman in @MichaelsStores... over a mask.
Grown beta men are now able to yell at and assault women for not wearing a mask properly.
Sounds very "progressive".
Btw, alphas always take stereotypical blame. But as it turns out, it's the betas who are jumping at the opportunity to use the cult of mask-wearing to justify the mistreatment of women.
Nothing, nothing Donald Trump could’ve ever said or did — in the beginning or end — would’ve made them act differently. DC is a military junta shithole because that’s who they are.
2. He never had a honeymoon. He hired everyone he should not have — from Rex Tillerson for Conde Rice to Bill Barr for G.W. Bush — all to extend a hand, only for them to spit in it.
They hated Donald Trump because he stood for and constantly reminded them of, their failures.
3. He was a challenge to the status quo, which knows nothing but preservation and self-perpetuation, and will do anything in the name of them.
The only thing he could’ve done to avoid being where we are now, is to not ever have run in the first place.
