If you’re looking for hard hitting news, and not interested in puff propaganda, get the “X” app and follow independent journalists.
You’d know through Nick Sortor and Cam Higby that the ICE protests in Minnesota are far from “peaceful”, and they are being organized over an encrypted app run by the Democrat Lt. Governor, and Democrat State Representatives under the watchful eyes of Tim Walz and Jacob Frey. Highly organized and funded with manuals on how to agitate federal agents. You’ll see the violence these people produce that is not shown on your TV.
You’d also know that the rise in violence is a smoke screen to take away from the news uncovered by Nick Shirley regarding the $9-$20 billion in fraud of taxpayer money laundered through nonexistent daycare businesses. 88% of the businesses are run by Somalis and mainly in Ilhan Omar’s district. You know how I know it is a smoke screen? Obama’s Border Czar deported 3 million illegals, was praised by the media and Democrats and given a medal by Obama. Trump’s Border Czar has deported under 800,000 illegals, gets death threats and lives on a military base. The problem is both of those guys were the same guy… Tom Homan.
Ilhan Omar meanwhile has a net worth that went from $50K to between $10-$30 million in 18 months. She married an alleged fraudster who claims to work for a hedge fund, managing $60 billion in assets, yet not one major player in the hedge fund field knows of them. They claim their winery is worth $1-5 million but independent journalists visited it and found no operation. A lot of your money is being flown out of the country in cash by these people, but you don’t have to be a super sleuth to see that the likelihood of some of your taxpayer dollars helping Ms. Omar’s wealth skyrocket is pretty high.
Matt Taibbi was once a very liberal reporter for Rolling Stone. He saw the news was slanted very left, went on his own, was given the Twitter files after Elon Musk bought them and reported on how Twitter shadow banned conservatives, squandered pro-Trump election speech and suppressed stories that came from the Hunter Biden laptop, aka election interference.
Michael Schellenberger was a Democrat candidate for California governor in 2018. He advised Obama on his climate agenda and was even on board with most of it. Like many other climate alarmists (recently Bill Gates) they saw that most of it was overblown. He changed his thinking and now comes from a very middle-of-the-road position. He brings a calm, measured, thoughtful approach to his reporting.
I love when a liberal blurts out “Trump lies!” etc… How do they come to that conclusion, because I watched MSNBC recently and when the President or V.P. came on to speak about Greenland and Minneapolis respectively, they cut the feed and brought on some pundit to spin what he wants you to think they are saying. So how can you make an assessment if you don’t hear what is actually being said?
There are many other citizen journalists out there, who do great reporting if you want the truth. Or you can continue to adjust the antenna on your Zenith TV, pop in a cassette tape or send correspondence via fax machine and watch mainstream news,
