Pow! Right in the Kisser!

Journo Bumps Trump with Boom Mic — What was That All About?… Indeed, why didn’t the secret service take any action? How could they be sure that the incident was innocuous? [More]

From my own experience with the Secret Service at Trump media events:

The day of the event, the press was instructed to meet at one end of the huge complex to check in, pick up badges, and for those bringing in cameras and gear, preset equipment, which the Secret Service would check.

What I don’t know is everything protocol requires the equipment to be inspected for.

Troll Complains It’s Not Being Fed

The FBI did not immediately return the Daily Beast’s request for comment on Patel’s reported requests. [More]

Why would he? He’s ferreting out the nmost dangerous kind of armed criminal– the kind that works in law enforcement and nowtands to lose everything when their treasonous subversion is exposed, and you apparatchiks are telling your useful idiots not piutting his life in their hands is “bonkers”and “paranoid.”

Once more, Bill Clinton’s rules of engagement come to mind…

I Got Them Lügenpresse Blues

Former Reporters for Politico Claim Outlet Squashed Negative Stories About the Bidens [More]

There’s a shocker.

Pointing out Nazi origins in an attempt to stop being called what they are doesn’t work with those not afraid to call a national socialist a national socialist. Besides, Democrats lying about the Second Amendment use Nazi terminology all the time.

That, and I don’t think they’ll like my alternative any better…

The ‘Convicts’ Tar Vanishes

US newspapers are deleting old crime stories, offering subjects a ‘clean slate’ [More]

So now it’s the job of “Authorized Journalists” to suppress relevant information. My “For ‘progressives,’ every day is Opposite Day” adage just keeps proving itself.

That’s one way for authorities to absolve themselves of the predictable results of catch-and-release.

I wonder where they got the idea from.

This is CNN

CNN Tries and Fails – Again – to Make Florida’s Stand Your Ground Law Controversial [More]

So a 42-year-old with a violent criminal history threatens an armed 79-year-old with a chainsaw, who responds appropriately, and that’s reason to disparage”Stand Y0ur Ground”?

The only thing controversial is why anyone still watches CNN.

Tangentially-related UPDATE

Or that more people don’t sue

‘Fact Checker’ Meltdown

Doltish reporters Rebecca Shabad and Ryan J. Reilly breathlessly reported that “Rep. Mike Collins, R-Ga., falsely claimed in a lengthy post on X this morning that ‘thousands of peaceful grandmothers’ gathered Jan. 6, 2021, to take a tour of the U.S. Capitol building and that people peacefully explored the building.” They go on and on about “false” and “untrue” claims in Collins’ post, including some assertions that aren’t false. [More]

Doltish is right. I remember Ryan J. Reilly freaking out over “rubber bullets” that earned him his own special Fauxtoshop that seemed so appropriate…

Mexican Standoff

60 Minutes Gets Dragged on Twitter/X Over Story Praising Gun Control Policies in Mexico [More]

To paraphrase Rhett Butler, they should be dragged and often, and by someone who knows how.

They had a chance to sustain real journalism about guns and Mexico with Sharyl Attkisson, but instead decided that didn’t fit the approved narrative. They could’a been contenders instead of DSM bums, which is what they are, let’s face it.
