Petty Disgraced Media Hack Smacks "Thank Trump" Trend

If this tweet does not prove how truly showly the Mainstream Media has always been, then nothing will: This is Dan Rather commenting on the "Thank Trump" trend that emerged on Twitter today. And this is the pettiness that he exemplifies, which represents the never-ending Trump Derangement Syndrome which overcame the media five years ago. 

Do these media hacks know no shame? 




 Recall that Dand Rather is a disgraced former media hack, too. In 2004, Rather reported a story claiming that then President George W. Bush lied about his service in the United States airforce. This controversy was known as the "Killian Documents controversy", although it later became known as Memogate or Rathergate.

Why?

 The whole "scoop" turned into a failed fiasco, because the so-called "smoking gun" letter was clearly faked. Any competent journalist would have walked away from such a fraudulent story, but Rather was a media hack, and he ran with it purely for partisan reasons. 

The disgrace of this fraud was so great, he was forced to retire early. Of course, back in 2004, there were journalistic standards of a sort, and bad reporters were held accountable. Nowadays, reporters don't hide their political bias or their propagandist spirit, and they get lauded for it.

Open Letter to SoCal News Group: Edits/Corrections Needed for "Carson Town Hall" Article

Mr. Hasse:

My name is Arthur Schaper. I am a member of a pro-immigration enforcement group called "We the People Rising."



First, I commend SoCal News Group for reporting the plight of families victimized by illegal aliens. I was particularly touched that the LA Daily News reported on the untimely death of Nancy Duran in the North Hills region in Los Angeles--I believe that your newspaper in the region was the only one to share that it was an illegal alien drunk driver who hit her.

However, I am stunned and offended that a number of press agents in your news group insist on labeling men and women who enforcement of our nation's immigration laws as "anti-immigrant."

On at least three separate occasions, I have had to direct your reporters to issue a correction on this mislabeling.

We the People Rising, the Remembrance Project, and other pro-enforcement activists are not "anti-immigrant" in any way. In fact, members of our larger community of patriots ARE immigrants themselves.

This is more than a matter of political correctness, but factual as well as moral correctness. It is very offensive for the news cadre within your news group to insist on publishing such misleading labels. Even after a correction is issued on the webspage version of an article, the damage is done, since the misleading label has already appeared in print.

This practice must cease. Accurate reporting is essential, and  yet this repeated decision not to abide by proper, professional journalistic practices explains why the print newspaper industry in particular and legacy media in general is facing such a sharp decline.

I would like you to contact me immediately on outlining the steps that will be taken to correct these gross reporting errors.

Cell: (310) --------
Email: arthurschaper@hotmail.com (this is my personal email -- I would prefer you use this one.)

Once again, it's welcome to see the local press finally focusing on the devastating consequences of illegal immigration on American citizens, both born and naturalized. But the reporting must done in a fair, balanced, and accurate fashion.

Sincerely,

Arthur Schaper

Even the Times of London Gets It: Transgenderism is Dangerous Insanity





The funny thing about this tweet is that the Times of London is using it to promote their site!

Even the Times of London understands that transgenderism is a mental disorder, not a civil right, and none of us should waste our time trying to defend this depravity.

We need to stand our ground and stand for truth!

MassResistance Exposes SPLC Uses Lies, Distortions, and Disinformation

Beyond libel: How the SPLC uses lies, distortions, and disinformation as a political weapon

By Brian Camenker
September 18, 2018
If there’s any barometer that MassResistance is gaining influence, it’s the fact that the extremist Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) – the well-funded centerpiece of left-wing hate in America – has recently revved up its engines to expand its attacks on us.
More than ever, in this age of Trump, the Left simply cannot defend its ideas or positions with rational discussion. It must rely on the most extreme vitriol in the form of lies, distortions, disinformation, and dishonesty. This is something that most conservatives would never think of doing, but it is part of the Left’s mindset.
ALT TEXTThe SPLC is the real hate group.
The SPLC’s aim (which they have often admitted) is to destroy those who disagree with them. By any rational definition, the SPLC itself is a hate group. They see themselves as the ideological weapon that the mainstream media, corporations, and social media can use to crush conservatives.
We’re used to it. For example, for years the SPLC has used completely phony quotes to paint me as a kind of Holocaust denier – even though I’m Jewish and three of my four grandparents were born in Eastern Europe. They have touted some MassResistance chapters which don’t even exist as dangerous “hate groups.” I could go on and on with their lies.
But last month the SPLC really outdid themselves. They published an attack against MassResistance that is bizarre even by their hideous standards.
Titled “California chapter of anti-LGBT hate group MassResistance gets a white nationalist member,” the article is a vicious attack on our California MassResistance leader Arthur Schaper, a wonderful activist – and also, of course, on me.
The latest epithet-du-jour of the Left is “white nationalist” which replaces “bigot, hater, homophobe,” etc., for the time being. Unlike the Leftist group Black Lives Matter, which exemplifies hatred toward police in particular and white people in general, the term “white nationalist” seems to encompass almost anything the Left doesn’t like. (At a so-called “white nationalist” rally in Boston last year - so labeled by the Boston Globe - the main speaker was a black man. But why let that get in the way of the Left’s narrative?)
This SPLC rant is a breathtaking read. Pretty much every sentence is a lie or absurd distortion of some kind. One almost thinks it was written by a group of middle school students.
It freely breaks rules of common logic. For example: If you’re at an event and someone else (possibly a Leftist) shouts something, the SPLC tags you with it. [ad hominem / guilt by association] This kind of thing is done throughout the article.
No real journalist could write this stuff. If you oppose illegalimmigration, you are “anti-immigrant” and a “nativist extremist.” If you debate someone you disagree with, the SPLC paints you with the other person’s “bad” views. The SPLC fumed because someone “sitting near” Arthur “reportedly” shouted something bad at a meeting. How absurd!
The article is littered with half-truths (or outright lies) about Arthur and his activities. It repeats the distortions in other far-left publications and local left-wing media. There’s not a single “fact” in this article that you can trust at face value.

Any student of the Nazi propaganda minister Josef Goebbels will instantly recognize this style of “journalism.” And these hit pieces are being funded by many of America’s major corporations, such as Apple and Morgan Stanley, who even match employee contributions to the SPLC.
If there’s any humor here it’s the fact that they do include a few direct quotes which are accurate, but will horrify liberals. Arthur actually did write:
“… homosexual behaviors and transgenderism are not normal albeit eccentric behaviors, but destructive and immoral practices which harm children, destroy families, and undermine a sound and cohesive culture.”
Nothing, of course, remotely compares to the violence and disgusting profanity which conservatives regularly endure from aggressive leftists, SJWs, Antifa, etc. No comments from the SPLC on any of that.

What should this tell conservatives?

It means we are getting to them. Extremists like the SPLC don’t react like this if a group poses no threat to their agenda and ideology. It shows that we are doing the right thing, and we need to keep doing it.
The truth is, the liberal reporters who constantly use the SPLC to demean conservatives in their articles know full well what a fraud it all is. They keep doing it because they’re liberals themselves and there’s generally no push-back from our side. Well, we’ve been working on that, too. We’ll show you in an upcoming MassResistance article!

More Truth About the Red Elephants: They LIED About Jeremy from CNN

What set me off about the Red Elephants (sometimes referred to as "The Brown Shirt Elephants") enough that I called them out completely was that they savaged Jeremy Montanez, the guy on the CNN panel with me last month.

I was really disgusted that they called him a plant. He voted for Trump, even though he had diverse reasons for doing so.

The onslaught that he endured was unreal.




They just automatically assumed that he was a plant.

Pretty sad.


All of this was unfair hoopla.

Montanez was not a plant. Period. I should know. I sat next to the guy, I got a feel for what he believed. All the talk about his socialist views were no surprise to me. He had told me that he was a socialist committed to centralized, government medicine.

We talked for a while after the CNN panel the same day. He paid for the Uber that drove us to Trump Tower.

For about three weeks, I didn't hear from Jeremy. I guessed that he had blocked me or something.

Then finally he reached out to me on Facebook.

Here's a statement I received from Montanez after it all:


Here's the full statement:

Hey this is Jeremy I just saw the video that you posted trying to defend me and I'm very gracious for that I thank you so much for that I disagree with some of the things that were said I am not confused I am back on the bandwagon the way it was before and I'm doing all I can to Advocate against this president but because of the attacks I've gotten media attention I've been on Univision freespeech tv the red elephants are going to interview me I agree to it because I believe that my story should be told him they need to know the truth because face it there fake news but I want to thank you so much and I hope you're well and yes I did go into hiding for a bit I just cut contact with everybody from the panel just because of what was going on I have defended you even though you haven't been attacked like I have but I just want to thank you


Instead of walking back the charges, Vince James tells the audience to make up their minds.

But the biggest problem remains that they jumped on the bandwagon outright and called him a fake, and this fraud snowballed into getting them lots of views, clicks, whatever.

Not once did Vince acknowledge that he was wrong. Not once did he concede that he jumped ahead of the whole story. He just went along with whatever would get the most coverage. This is the epitome of Fake News.

What a crock.

Not only did The Red Elephants go to every length they could to cover for their fake news, they pivoted to attacking his views on Trump, immigration, healthcare, etc. They couldn't spend too much time going after his appearance on CNN. They would then have to admit that they jumped the gun and were wrong.

Oh, and Montanez had the humility to admit that he was wrong to call President Trump "a monster".

Once again, here's Montanez with me at Trump Tower, and we met Eric Trump there:



Here were are outside of Trump Tower in New York City:



The Red Elephants put up an article suggesting that Montanez was a plant.



But they only suggested it, right?

WRONG!

They assumed it readily:





They thought they had their big scoop, right?!


When I finally exposed the Red Elephants about their anti-Semitism, anti-Zionism, and their racialism, Vince James texted me to change my story about Montanez:


Notice how he didn't challenge my post about his hatred of Jews, Israel, and the denigration of other people because of their skin color.

They have to concede their hatred along those lines.

Vince James and the rest of these alt-right Fake News types have been fully exposed.

This is the last time that I will write about this. For the two weeks that the whole Twitter sphere went nuts over "CNN Placed a Plant on Their Panel!", I just sat back and laughed. The whole world trolled themselves essentially, especially the so-called alternative, independent media. So desperate were they to push a narrative, that they didn't bother to wait for the facts to come out.

RIP Red Elephants:

The Nadir of CNN Self-Service: TDS Overtakes McCain Tribute with Gov. John Sununu

The brief yet tense exchange between former New Hampshire Governor John Sununu and CNN Anchor Alisyn Camerota was too much to ignore.

Last month, I faced questions about President Trump from Alisyn Camerota for her "New Day" program. For this segment, she invited the former Governor to talk about John McCain.

And yet, she seemed more interested in talking about Donald Trump.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnC0seSAYSg

ALISYN CAMEROTA, CNN ANCHOR: So joining us now to talk about the legacy of John McCain is former New Hampshire Governor John Sununu. He was chief of staff to President George H.W. Bush.

Good morning, governor.

JOHN SUNUNU (R), FORMER NEW HAMPSHIRE GOVERNOR: Good morning, Alisyn. How are you?

CAMEROTA: Well, I'm well.

Oh, my gosh, just remembering how much time John McCain invested in New Hampshire and how much he loved the retail politics there and the mixing it up and the stump speeches. You know, Jeff Jacobi, in "The Boston Globe" this morning, calls him New Hampshire's third senator. What are your thoughts?

The segment begins well enough, focused on Presidential aspirant McCain's attempts to ecome Chief Executive, twice. He worked New Hampshire very hard, and he won the state both times.

SUNUNU: That's very accurate. You know, if you're involved in politics at all in New Hampshire, you certainly do get to know at least on some level those who are running for president. And John McCain grew to embrace the style of campaigning that works well in New Hampshire.

The last time I saw him, for any significant amount of time, was when he came up to campaign for Kelly Ayotte in 2016. And we spent a full day -- I was trying to help my son, Chris, who was running for governor, and the four of us spent a full day in a van crossing the state, hitting a number of events. And to listen to John talk in that van about how wonderful his experiences were up here, you knew this was someone that had truly connected with the state. He loved the campaigning, the face to face campaigning. He loved being challenged with questions at the town hall.

It's worth noting that Kelly Ayotte, who had joined herself with the Establishment wing of the GOP along with John McCain and Lindsey Graham, ended up losing her re-election bid in New Hampshire. She refused to support President Trump after the "Grabber Gate" recording hit the public. The candidates running for US Senate who disavowed Trump after those private remarks went public never recovered.

[08:35:07] And as we went from event to event, it was obvious he remembered people at each one of those events from the previous campaigns and loved to chat with them about how they had come together over the years. So he really did embrace the New Hampshire see me, touch me, feel me style of campaigning and grew to love the people that helped him.

CAMEROTA: You're just reminding me of something from the Straight Talk Express. So I was on it -- on the bus with him in 1999. And, you know, I went to many of his stump speeches. So he would sometimes replay his greatest hits, you know, and some of his favorite jokes. And one of them that I'm just reminded of is that he said that he overheard two women in New Hampshire talking after one of his stump speeches and one said to the other, what do you think of Senator McCain? And the other one said, I don't know, I've only met him three times. And he used to -- that one brought the house down.

An old joke, often repeated. At least John McCain was funny to some people--but CNN has a similar schtick, and no one finds them funny at all.

SUNUNU: Yes, that's -- John had about five jokes that he loved to repeat.

CAMEROTA: I know.

SUNUNU: And, in fact, let you know he was going to repeat them. So he used them well and it got to a point where the audience felt deprived if he didn't tell the same joke the next time they saw him that he had said the previous time.

Look, this was --

CAMEROTA: No, I totally agree, they didn't get old. I agree, having heard them many times. He delivered them with the same verve and novelty each time.

Here's something else about John McCain which I had not know, which made him somewhat more endearing, at least as a Presidential candidate. For the record, I did vote for him in the 2008 General Election, even though I had supported Mitt Romney in the June primary.

SUNUNU: Yes. And, you know, he had an interesting take on the town halls. He almost felt that he was deprived if somebody didn't ask him a tough challenging question. Not somebody that he felt was trying to provoke him, but somebody that was trying to really find something out about an issue and he loved taking that opportunity to explain the details of something that was important.

Too bad that McCain didn't govern with the same kind of personable panache for Arizona in Washington DC.

The person that knew him best up in New Hampshire, of course, is Senator Ayotte. John McCain embraced Senator Ayotte when she got elected. He kind of brought her in as part of the three amigos with Senator Lindsey Nelson and himself. And he worked with her on the committees and tried to make sure that she really was treated in a way that allowed her to grow in the Senate. And he -- she really, I think, became his closest New Hampshire ally.

Ayotte should not have embraced John McCain at all. She should have embraced President Trump.

CAMEROTA: So, governor, what do you think about President Trump rejecting the practice of putting out an official White House statement about John McCain's service and sacrifice?

Here we go. At this part, the interview got tense but very engaging for us conservatives who are tired of CNN (Clinton News Network) repeatedly attacking our President.

SUNUNU: Look, that was printed in "The Washington Post," and I have to be honest with you, I don't give much credence to what I read.

CAMEROTA: We also have that reporting.

SUNUNU: Yes, well, same thing applies, Alisyn.

BAM! I loved this. This transcript won't convey the shocked look on Camerota's face. I saw something vaguely similar when I told her that CNN's ratings were in the tank. People don't want to watch non-stop anti-Trump mania, especially when it's deliberately misleading and clearly false.

CAMEROTA: Governor, you come on CNN and we appreciate you coming on CNN and we appreciate your take on it. But I don't appreciate you denigrating our reporting. I think that you know we have excellent reporters here. But are you saying that you don't want to believe that? You don't want to believe that President Trump would do that about John McCain?

I ... I ... I. Hey, Alisyn. This interview is about John McCain, right? It's not supposed to be about you. Do you understand?

SUNUNU: I'm saying that I don't want to comment on a report that I haven't satisfied myself is correct.

CAMEROTA: And if that report were true?

SUNUNU: I'm not going to answer the hypothetical.

Good for you, John Sununu!

CAMEROTA: It's not hypothetical. This is our reporting. We have rock solid sources in the White House that there was a statement that drafted --

Wow! She doubles down on the network's shameless duplicity, but Sununu isn't having any of that.

SUNUNU: Alisyn, Look, I came on -- you asked me to come on to talk about John McCain. I'm here to talk about John McCain as I remember him. I'm not here to talk about the press's handling of a difference between the White House and the press corps at this time.

He handles this conflict with such diplomatic tact and flair, something that Chris Cuomo, Brian Stetler, and the other hack "journalists" (in reality, propagandists)

CAMEROTA: It's not the press's handling. It's President Trump's handling of John McCain's death.

LIE! Wow, this desperate need to cover up for the media bias, the desperation to justify their lies, their anti-Trump madness is just stunning to me.

Sununu shows real class. More politicians should go on CNN. These corrupt, bigoted prima donnas make politicians look like real statesmen.

SUNUNU: OK. Look, John McCain was a great American who deserves to be recognized as a great American. He is being recognized by his colleagues and of friends -- his friends around. Melania Trump has certainly put out an exceptionally strong statement outlining the appreciation for his service. The White House has recognized the sorrow of the family. And I think Americans ought to be looking at the positive side, not trying to create a division amongst people who are in joint sorrow mourning a great American.

CAMEROTA: And are you satisfied that President Trump's statement goes far enough?

SUNUNU: I suspect there will be additional statements over time and I think this effort to try and create a cleavage there really does disturb me. It is, in fact, this kind of -- it is, in fact --

Then Camerota gets really offended. The video conveys her sense of wounded pride. "This effort to try and create a cleavage ..." Yes, the former Governor of New Hampshire directly calls out the unprincipled bias of Clinton News Network.

CAMEROTA: Sorry, can you repeat that? Sorry, somebody was talking to me. This effort to what?

"Someone was talking to me." Wow! Talk about unprofessional. Can one assume that Camerota wasn't listening in the first place? She was expecting a sharp exchange or long sequence of abusive rants against Trump.

Didn't happen.

SUNUNU: Cleavage between the White House and the -- and those that are mourning John McCain. It is this effort by the press to accentuate the negative that I think has created the climate that prevents, in the long term, the bipartisanship that John McCain supported. And I don't want to be a part of rubbing whatever salt there is in whatever wound there may be because I think that just adds to the division.



It's stunning how the Governor kept effortlessly returning the discussion back to McCain. He took Camerota's brazen attempts to push a shameless political narrative and returned it to a more meaningful end.

[08:40:19] I'm here because I lost a good friend. I wanted to express my concern about that. I wanted to applaud what he contributed to the country. I wanted to underscore the relationship he had with the state of New Hampshire. And I'm not here to play the political games that some of the press want to play at this moment of what I think is great sorrow for the country.

Wow. Powerful moment. Such direct honesty, direct yet tactful and respectful.

CAMEROTA: Just to be clear, we don't see it as a game. And to be clear, the press didn't create whatever division exists that President Trump feels that allowed him to spike the statement that General John Kelly wanted him to put out about John McCain's sacrifice. The press didn't invent that.

Yes, they did, or at the very least they fanned this unrest.

SUNUNU: Alisyn, everybody -- everybody -- everybody reflects their concerns in ways that are consistent with whatever they feel. I've expressed my concern at the loss of John McCain, who I think was a great American. A great American hero in the military. A great American hero in the political process. And, frankly, great American hero on a personal level to people that knew him well. And it is on those three levels that I sense the loss and I have expressed my -- my feelings of sorrow for him having passed and my expression of feelings of sorrow for his personal family who lost him and for a country who lost a great American hero.

I do not think McCain was a great hero at all. I despised the man. Yet Governor Sununu has a right to mourn the loss of his dear friend. He has a right to reminisce about the good times he shared with McCain, too.

CAMEROTA: You're not alone, governor. So many people feel that way. So many people echo that today. And that's why it is notable that the president doesn't.

She just had to try one more time to bring in Trump. Sununu knew how to keep fighting it.

SUNUNU: Well, I'm here to talk about my friend John McCain. You appear to be here to talk about something that you think you can exploit. And I find that rather unpleasant.

BINGO! That word "exploit" was the perfect word. I am so glad that the Governor called her out like that. It was just perfect.

CAMEROTA: Governor, again, we don't have to try to exploit something. This is a fact. This is a truism, that the --

SUNUNU: Well, why are you dwelling on it?

BAM!

CAMEROTA: Because President --

SUNUNU: I have given you my comment --

CAMEROTA: And I would --

SUNUNU: I have given you my comments on it and I am here to talk about John McCain.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

CAMEROTA: Fair. And I just reject your premise that this is something the press has created. It has been customary, probably since George Washington was president, to honor a war hero.

Here we go again. Camerota makes the discussion about her and the media all over again. This is so shameful, this is so unbelievably in bad taste. These shameful media frauds have no regard for anyone but themselves.

SUNUNU: And you should make -- you should make your inquires directly to the White House if you want a direct answer.

CAMEROTA: Governor John Sununu, we appreciate you coming on and giving us your thoughts about what John McCain meant to you and to New Hampshire.

Notice how quickly

Thank you very much. 

SUNUNU: It's a great loss for the country and for the world.

CAMEROTA: Indeed.

Final Reflection

Alisyn Camerota ran into the Sununu buzz-saw. He took her down like a boss, he rightly shamed her for making the whole interview about Trump instead of John McCain. Sununu calmly rebuked Camerota, forced her to return to the subject of the deceased US Senator, and even when she insisted on taking jabs at President Trump, Sununu rightly rebuked her and the press as a whole.

Nice job, John Sununu!

New York City: Before, During, and Right After CNN Panel (Photos)

Right now, I wanted to share with the public all the photos I took on August 6th, 2018 for the CNN Panel in New York City.

I must say that by and large, NYC is a great city--so far as I could see and visit!

August is the height of tourism, too, especially from Europe. I saw so many people visiting from other countries, and I even spoke to two visitors from Canada (they were French-speaking, too!).

These are the photos before, during, and right after the CNN Panel.

Please enjoy.

Full report coming soon!
