1) People need to be honest that Kimmel is out because distributors were FLEEING his show. The distributors are NOT state actors but private actors. Tell the truth. 2) Kimmel did not lose his First Amendment rights when these private distributors fled his show, leading to its end on ABC. He is able to find a different market to peddle his lies, disinformation, and hatred.

I just read the most embarrassingly bad Washington Post story about the release of the explosive and long-hidden House Intel Committee report detailing how Brennan cooked up the false claim that Russia interfered in 2016 *to help Trump* ... So first off, before we analyze the story, let's compare the sourcing to the sourcing we used to see in the Washington Post's previous "Russiagate" stories, back when they were winning Pulitzers for spreading the lie that Trump and Russia colluded to steal the 2016 election.

The recent revelations about the origins of the Russia collusion hoax against the American people are the biggest story in America right now. It's the biggest scandal in our history. And yet look at how most media outlets are handling the news. Ignoring, downplaying... The reason why they're trying to bury this explosive story is obvious: our corporate media were active and willing agents in the seditious conspiracy. They certainly can't report on the fact that they were involved in these crimes against the country.

Everyone's been assuming TROs can't be appealed but in this order that just dropped, Judge Katsas argues convincingly in his dissent that when lower court impinges on the POTUS's core Article II powers, immediate appeal should be available. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco… Katsas, the dissenter, is the third judge on this D.C. Circuit panel that includes leftwing judges Pan and Childs (I wrote about Pan's attempt to rig Trump's j6 case in 2023, here: )thefederalist.com/2023/12/19/how…

NeverTrumpers are praising Danielle Sassoon for resigning from the DOJ's Southern District New York rather than comply with the new DOJ policy against weaponized investigations and prosecutions. Usually they emphasize her affiliations ... a few quick thoughts... 1) if you do not want to comply with a policy, the right thing to do is resign. I don't know why she said nothing as DOJ did Russiagate, false FISA warrants, cartoonish overprosecution of J6ers, Mar-a-Lago raid, refusing to enforce border laws, etc. but

In April 2021, I pointed out the absurdity of a hit piece against Kash Patel written by David Ignatius, essentially the CIA's in-house columnist at the Washington Post. Today, CNN Russia collusion hoaxers Natasha Bertrand and Evan Perez closed the loop on a part of that (🧵) Here's my piece ... in which I noted the curious language Ignatius used to defame Kash. He was "facing" investigation for ... something. thefederalist.com/2021/04/22/dee…

The "Society for the Rule of Law" attacks rule of law -- They use dangerous and destabilizing lawfare to fight Trump and other political opponents. Anywho, they had a conference last week and I watched two sessions and hoo boy was it sad ... One featured Liz Cheney's BFF Barbara Comstock and George Conway (along with a sad and broken Michael Luttig and moderator Gregg Nunziata). Several of the panelists were absolutely SEETHING with hatred for Trump and repeating the most far-fetched conspiracy theories about him...

I keep thinking about this McConnell pledge to fight elected Republicans more than Democrats after the election. It's far more insidious and dangerous than it even seems at first blush.

The refusal to accept the legitimacy of the 2016 election is a cause of massive ongoing problems. From 2016-2020, McConnell either aided or impotently fought the Russia collusion hoax, costly investigations, the (1st) bogus impeachment, a well-organized and funded resistance 2/x

Democrat propaganda outlet CNN is now running wild with stories about Biden needing to step down to help the Democrat Party win in November. But what were they saying about media outlets who reported the facts of Biden's problems days before the debate? Let's look! CNN anti-speech activist and censorship promoter Oliver Darcy said that noticing problems at the big Hollywood George Clooney fundraiser meant you were "misleading" readers, for example:

Sam Feist, a beloved CNN institutional figure (who ran CNN's Washington Bureau while it ran the false and damaging Russia collusion lie, among other hoaxes,) has been named the new CEO of C-SPAN. Congrats! This does remind me also of one of the media's most impressive moments in 2020, when C-SPAN political editor Steve Scully was caught conspiring with anti-Trumpist figures ahead of the debate he was supposed to "moderate" and claimed his account was hacked.

"Defendant spent this money on drugs, escorts and girlfriends, luxury hotels and rental properties, exotic cars, clothing, and other items of a personal nature, in short, everything but his taxes."

I like that "women" and "adult entertainment" are SEPARATE expenses and that one is $683,212 and the other is $188,960. For a total of $872,172.

Just received an email from "VineSight," which claims to be a leading company targeting "disinformation and toxic narratives on social media." They have bragged previously they play a major role in suppressing free speech around environmental and election integrity debates ... The free speech they're targeting in the "election" section is terrifying. They highlight for their suppression efforts, for example, a @TulsiGabbard TikTok that says of the coordinated Dem strategy to remove Trump from the ballot: "Biden is trying to get Trump off the ballot."

A friend sent the front page of Gannett's Knoxville News Sentinel. Setting aside the anti-gun rights lead story, look at how it runs propaganda for one of the most brazen grifts in modern politics -- the Democrat-run and operated dark money operation "Republicans for Ukraine." Activists Sarah Longwell and Bill Kristol -- who support Democrat policies and candidates every day -- set up a dark money operation to make money by falsely claiming to be "conservative" and "Republican." The paper uncritically regurgitates their lies and propaganda.

Checking out the scene at Trump Tower. Sidewalks blocked off and police/media presence. Immigrant Trump fan says he’s sick about political prosecution of Trump

I'm reading this NYT piece on Durham by three Russia collusion hoaxers (Charlie Savage, Adam Goldman and Katie Benner) and it reads like a continuation of their previous conspiracy theorizing -- anonymous sources, junior-high-schoolish attacks on their political opponents, etc. It's just this long, weird alternate reality where the Russia collusion hoax still must be bitterly clung to and anyone who doesn't join them in this fever dream (or otherwise pretends to believe it) is weird and inexplicable.

Wow did I get a ton of feedback to my article and tweets on McConnell (like, literally more than 10K responses to one tweet). Some criticism was that I was way too kind to him... 1/X acecomments.mu.nu/?post=402424 Nat'l Review and other McConnell defenders emphasized that he included China WITH add'l Ukraine funding as GOP's biggest budget concern and that we should be comforted that his (undeniable) support of the $1.7T Omni wasn't as effusive as it seemed.

Trump just announced that, as expected, he's running for president. "This will not be my campaign. This will be our campaign all together." Says the only force big enough to take on America's challenges is the American people.

Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of @sbaprolife, celebrating the hard-fought triumph of overturning Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that prohibited Americans from protecting women and our children from the violence of abortion. Vice President Mike Pence praises @marjoriesba as one of this country’s greatest defenders of life. Says that he explained to his own children that his political work is “for the babies.” And that “life won” in June 2022x

ABC News's @jonkarl out there pushing completely fake news as part of its obsessive pro-Democrat election meddling, as per usual. Donald Trump picked up Senate seats in his first mid-term and he did it against an absolutely deranged media and establishment resistance. @jonkarl Oh my goodness, I just read the transcript of his messy tongue-bath of Cheney and it's truly one of the most sycophantic and fact-free and delusional "interviews" I've ever observed.

Headed to the great state of Wyoming today. A bit too excited! Real:

I'm shocked, shocked to learn that pro-abortion activists made up a story for political gain.

I guess the other option is that abortionists and their activist allies are aiding and abetting the rape of children by failing to report criminal acts -- which, to be fair, would be very on-brand for them.
