Stop focusing on “trust in media declining” or “at an all time low,” because when big media decides to move on from a political story, it is not a story, and there sure is no action around it (statements from electeds, congressional investigations or action by the Feds).

Reuters has today proof of Biden plotting with the former Afghan Prez to change the perception about that country.

A PR stunt.

Did your TV melt and Twitter freeze from coverage of this?

No. As a result, few electeds said anything about it no matter how low trust in media is.

Two very senior career FDA officials resigned today in protest of how political appointees in the Admin moved ahead with a booster idea before the FDA agreed.

Are we being fed OMG-LIVES-ARE-in-DANGER news coverage?

Nope.

No meltdown. No major scandal.

A news and done.

Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller spoke out against the Afghan mess. He was pushed out from the Marines and he says that he was ordered to undergo a mental check.

No news coverage of this being bullying and intimidation as done for the “vaunted” “patriot” Vindman.

You see the pattern?

Each of these stories under Trump would be MELTDOWN mode for days thanks to media. We would all be busy with it; including House/Senate GOPs no matter how little the public trusts media.

Biden has 3 would-be scandals in one day and they are less news than an inflation report.

If media chose, the Admin would be reeling from the messed up strike in Afghanistan 60 hours ago that wiped out a family and not a suicide bomber as claimed.

Another 3-day meltdown would be the president looking at his watch during the arrival of the 13 soldiers 2 days ago.

Also in the last 72 hours: Biden referred to an advisor who is black as “boy,” but low-trust media decided it’s not a scandal so it isn’t.

Biden comes very late to his pressers these days; is angry; sometimes confused; most days refuses questions. But big media isn’t talking

about his “cognitive state” as they did to Trump for days after he walked down a ramp at West Point, so it isn’t much of a story; sure not a scandal. This despite “trust in media being at an all time low.”

Trust is an irrelevant factor when discussing the power of major media.

BTW, massive US media coverage of the messed up bombing would lead to more global news coverage which would lead to “allies” distancing themselves from the US on this which would feed another week of chaos/scNdal. But… it was just a story that was moved on from within hours.

A news room posting a story does not make it a scandal.

Scandalizing an incident means endless, round-the-clock coverage, analysis, and haggling by media which leads to statements from lawmakers of the same party; resignations of admin officials and at time even prosecutions.

Tuning into Fox/Newsmax/OAN and reading non-big media websites does not solve the problem because it’s not about knowing or not knowing of a story. It’s about a story being scandalized or not with the tactics written in the above tweet. When big media is out, it’s not a scandal.

Biden to visit NY/NJ this week Tuesday to see damage of the #IdaAftermath which is the first day of Rosh Hashanah.

I am happy it’s not Trump or else I would be harrased why I am silent with Trump’s insensitivity to such a holiday especially that Orthodox Jews suffered from Ida.

Why would Trump want to do that?

Also, this a clandestine military coup.

Go ahead Libs. Cheer it because it’s tRumpf.

@maddow

The latest news about Milley, if true, reflects bad on him and his accomplices. They are self-aggrandized clowns who apparently watch @maddow and @JoeNBC too much so they believe the worst on Trump.

BTW, if it came to a head, Milley would be out in a second on Trump’s orders.

In the summer of 2020, the insurrection at the White House caused 60+ USSS agents to be wounded; 11 hospitalized and POTUS with family to hide in the bunker for an hour. Milley later apalogized for the military’s role in protecting DC.

After Jan 6, he/other generals wrote this:

Why not regular testing at all places where parents/teachers spend their time in off school days?

What’s the obsession to disrupt life of an age group who unvaccinated has less deaths than vaccinated adults? An age group where 99.3% deaths the last 18 months is NOT Coronavirus?

@HeidiNBC

.@HeidiNBC You write “Children now make up more than 26% of new Covid-19 cases.”

If you test children at a disproportionate rate you will find there more cases.

BTW, from 1/1/20 through 9/4 of this year, 55,352 US kids age 0 through 17 died of all causes.

412 with Coronavirus.

Children age 0 through 17 are 22% of the US population, but since the start of last year they are…

1.00% of all US deaths.

0.63% of all US Coronavirus deaths.

What’s more: CDC said that 35% of children Coronavirus deaths last year is not plausible to have been Coronavirus.

771: The 7-day average of Coronavirus deaths in the US last year September 8th.

1,199: The average on the same date this year.

A 55.5% jump, yet the clowns who are running COVID-19 policy for 18 months pretend that they have a clue.

Biden is getting a pass for this mess. Cool.

I told you last year August during the campaign (and during the transition) that Biden’s plan to tackle COVID-19 is filled with things that flopped elsewhere.

Indeed, current US Coronavirus deaths is up 55.5% from the same time last year despite 8 months of vaccination.

@WHCOS

Really amazing to be a Dem POTUS and his @WHCOS and @PressSec:

COVID-19 deaths are up 55.5% from the same date a year ago nationwide despite 8 months of vaccination, yet the POTUS does not just get a pass on it by Big Media but they help him blame GOP Governors for the mess.

Vaxx fanatics cannot address the tweet below except to yell “ANTI-VAXX” despite the fact that the tweet merely shows Fauci in full context as well as data from key countries.

Since I am not yet a zombie, I noticed the data/video and I am open for explanations.

2/15 Most of the COVID-19 mitigation debate is divided between vaccine fanatics and anti-vaxxers.

The former acts as if the vaccine is fool-proof, and the latter mocks the vaccine’s value.

The FACT is that in raw numbers and in relative terms, there are more Coronavirus deaths

3/15 in the unvaccinated than in the vaccinated. However, within a half year of taking the COVID-19 vaccine, deaths spiked among the vaxxed which is why Israel is pushing boosters and the US CDC Director said hat it’ll be needed. Israel is studying the need for another booster!

Headline: “Fact check: Biden honored service members killed in Kabul, checked watch only after ceremony.” usatoday.com/story/news/fac…

Eye Check: Biden looked at his watch as everyone was still in formation = not when people mingled about as the headline suggests.

USA Today changed its ratings on the Biden watch Fact Check from “false” to “missing context” despite their added context saying that “Biden checked his watch multiple times.”

Most stories reported that he looked at it only once so the Fact Check should have been ruled as TRUE.

@dpfunke

The “Fact Check” by @dpfunke should have led to a “true” ruling based on their finding that “Biden checked his watch multiple times,” which is more than what most stories said he did (they said he looked once). This besides the point that our lying eyes don’t need a fact check.

NYC is in a hell of water.

Sandy, in terms of the geographic area having been flooded, is a child’s play compared to this.

Car garages, apartments, streets and buildings that had no flooding during Sandy, have now 2 feet of water or more from end to end.

Sad and somber moment in Brooklyn as 4 Torah Scrolls (the 5 books of Moses written on parchment and considering the holiest item in Judaism) are removed from a synagogue submerged in water.
