New center to help prevent gun violence coming to Cleveland [More]
Nice parroting of the government’s narrative, “real reporter” Julia Bingel.

Trust Busters
TRUTH ABOUT BUMPSTOCKS MEDIA COVERAGE … But it’s presented in a news article for general population consumption, thus gaining credibility from those who trust the honest transmission of information based on the publication’s reputation. [More]
At this point, anyone who trusts USA Today/Gannet Publications and the DSM for any of that basically wants to be a manipulated idiot.

What did we just see the DSM marching in lockstep over in Milwaukee?
And now we’ve got another meme about Trump supporters being reinvigorated with Nancy Pelosi, PA Gov. Josh Shapiro, WaPo, and…
It’s true what they say: You don’t hate the media enough.
