New in PJ Media:
Tucker Carlson recently revealed that in an interview that never aired before he was fired from Fox, the chief of the Capitol police, Steven Sund, told him that on Jan. 6, 2021, at the Capitol, “that crowd was filled with federal agents.” Mounting evidence that Jan. 6 was anything but an “insurrection” didn’t stop the Biden regime from indicting Trump again, however, and it didn’t stop far-left talking head Dean Obeidallah from likening Trump to Osama bin Laden and hoping he dies in prison. Yes, that’s how far the left is ratcheting up the hysteria against their bête noire.
Mediaite reported Sunday that Obeidallah, who hosts a tiresome leftist agitprop extravaganza on SiriusXM, was appearing on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut,” where his brand of fact-free frenzy has a ready and welcoming audience. The guest host, former Republican National Committee chairman and born-again leftist Michael Steele, asked Obeidallah about Ron DeSantis’ statement that “I don’t think it would be good for the country to have an almost 80-year-old former president go to prison.”
Not surprisingly, Obeidallah strenuously disagreed with DeSantis. First, he took a shot at the Florida governor’s chances for the Republican nomination: “Well, first of all, I don’t think Ron DeSantis is going to be making that he has no shot at this nomination. He’s gotten weaker, it seems, by the day.” Then Obeidallah began enthusiastically slinging the mud:
If Ron DeSantis wants to get some traction in the GOP, apparently to get the base excited, he should commit some crimes, maybe knock over a liquor store or, you know, rob a bank. Donald Trump has 74 felonies right now. Ron DeSantis has none, so Ron DeSantis, go up, incite an attack in a neighboring state like Georgia, their capital. Maybe you’ll get people.
This was a nasty dig even for a remorseless apparatchik such as Obeidallah, but it neatly illustrated the left’s strategy in pursuing these prosecutions in the first place. They’re trying to portray not just Trump, but all their opponents, as criminals, so as to take the wind out of the sails of any Republican who might dare to mount a law-and-order campaign as blue cities become increasingly lawless hellholes.
This strategy, of course, depends on Merrick Garland and his henchmen continuing to look the other way regarding the influence-peddling schemes of Old Joe and his crackhead son, but given the fact that Garland is as partisan and uninterested in justice and fair dealing as is Obeidallah, leftists have no worries on that front.
Obeidallah wasn’t finished spreading the sleaze. He added, “The idea of pardoning. We’re going to move on? Imagine that sentiment after 9/11, oh we’ll just let bin Laden, let’s just move on as a nation. We had a terrorist attack on our Capitol. January 6 is an act of domestic terrorism. That’s what FBI Director Christopher Wray testified the attack was.” As everyone knows, the corrupt and compromised Wray is an unimpeachable source!
There is more. Read the rest here.

If Ron DeSantis wants to get some traction in the GO he should commit some crimes
Works for Democrat politicians so he assumes it would work for Republicans too.

Obeidallah? Reid? The continual agitprop that oozes from the left like muck sicks all but the most demented among us.

MSNBC, where they were just shown laughing about South African farmers being slaughtered.

https://www.frontpagemag.com/happy-indictment-day/ Just read former leftist Naomi Wolf’s article on the hysterical celebrations by the democrats and their minions over this set of indictments and how hypocritical is all is. She was the adviser to Clinton and Gore when they in fact bellowed about stolen elections. Read what she thinks of this perfidy on President Trump

I had the unfortunate experience recently, during some random web surfing, of coming across the most unhinged anti-Trump rant I had ever seen.
The woman who wrote the piece, obviously one of the intellectual luminaries of our time, assured us that Trump is “THE WORST CRIMINAL IN HUMAN HISTORY!”
And yes, the caps were on through the entire insane tirade.
So, I can certainly believe that the MSNBC POS who wrote the above, would wish Trump imprisoned for life.
Things are coming to a bad pass, people. There is madness stalking this land. It is beginning to feel like 1859, and something terrible is going to happen if the lunatics are allowed to prevail.

We don’t get news anymore we get news shows, where the news is reported in a style that the host wants to present it. It’s all slanted to the political belief of the host or programers. Reporting of the facts is hard to come by.

OLD GUY,
50 years ago, the mainstream media at least made an attempt to be factual.
No more.
They are now driven by Leftist narratives – and lie by both commission and omission.
Facts can still be found on conservative websites, but it takes more than a little effort…

Evidently, the people such as this guy, like criminals who can get away with their crimes. Just look how they lick the boots of the biden family. And the clintons. They play pelosi and schumer and others and respond to them as if they are gods and goddesses.
If Mr. Trump had actually committed some crimes, and escaped all punishment, they would be praising him and wondering if he could unseat their criminal of the hour…their criminal du jour.
If Gov. DeSantis committed some crimes and escaped punishment, they wouldn’t be after him as they are.
there is said to be no honor among thieves. However, power-mad, criminal politicians and their paid-for-media, work to keep each other in power. and oppose all who appear to be the “good guys.”
“Snakes in Suits,” Dr. Hare wrote about such people as this “media” creep and those for whom he works and at whose feet he worships.
