News media bias is dangerous because of the way some stories are reported — with important details omitted — and because of the stories that are suppressed.

The most obviously suppressed issue in the mainstream press is the subject of abortion. The Democratic Party, in close cooperation with the news media, does not (and cannot afford to) allow a rational discussion of the facts, because if people would stop to consider what an abortion really is, the practice would come to an immediate halt.

Other issues are also conspicuously absent from the evening news on television. Most stations do not report suicides and don't report cases where people successfully evade the police and get away with their crimes. When somebody gets away with murder, a reporter will say, "the case is still under investigation", or, "police are still looking for a suspect." Even in the newspaper, you have to read carefully to get the whole story in these cases.

The news media have very little to say about widespread everyday violent crime on mass transit systems. I suspect there is a great deal of violent crime on mass transit vehicles that goes unreported by the victims, and even more that goes unreported by the news media.

One of the most successfully hushed-up news stories in history is the mysterious collapse of World Trade Center Building 7. No airplane hit that building, yet it suddenly collapsed on the afternoon of September 11, 2001. The official explanation is that the collapsed resulted from an internal fire, but there was almost no smoke visible when the building fell, which is why there was no news media presence at the building. We are apparently supposed to forget that it happened, because it hardly made a blip on the news media radar, and the story evaporated within a few days. More information can be found here.

Editor's Note:

All the information about the Las Vegas mass shooting on October 4 has moved to this page.

Overview / recap articles:

Weinstein allegations are not the first stories 'spiked' by media. Many people seem shocked by claims from a former New York Times reporter who says the newspaper sat on her 2004 information exposing alleged sexual misconduct by Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein. The Weinstein question aside, I can tell you that every day, in newsrooms around the country, stories are killed because powerful people know how to get them killed. Recently, a former managing editor of Time magazine said that the only bias reporters have is their bias to get a great story on the front page. That may be true of good journalists — and there are many. But good journalists' intentions are impacted by managers and editors with authority to shape and censor; by managers and editors who are lobbied, enticed, pushed, pressed, cajoled and threatened by PR companies, crisis management specialists, global law firms, super PACs, advertisers, "nonprofits," business interests, political figures, famous people, important people, wealthy people, and their own corporate bosses. An entire industry has been built around companies and operatives that work to get stories placed, discredited or wiped.

Hall Monitor Nation. The media relentlessly lied to the public about Hillary's health, denouncing conservatives as "conspiracy theorists" for mentioning it. Then an alert citizen with an iPhone captured Hillary having to be carried to her car at the 9/11 memorial service in 2016. Mainstream media outlets painted a cherubic picture of Michael Brown after he was fatally shot by Missouri. He was a "gentle giant," gunned down like a dog as he plaintively cried, "Hands up! Don't shoot!" HEY! Wait a second! How did that video get out of Brown manhandling a tiny Indian man while robbing a convenience store? That should have been suppressed like the Broaddrick interview! Would we ever have known about Monica Lewinsky, but for the Drudge Report publishing the blockbuster story that Newsweek had killed? Currently, the establishment media are in a rage that the public has found out about the modern genocide being waged against white South African farmers.

Timely news and commentary:

DOJ Planned a Coup Against Trump, and the Press Doesn't Care. Andrew McCabe and Rod Rosenstein, along with other Department of Justice (DOJ) officials, plotted a political assassination of President Trump. Listen closely so you can hear the mainstream media's crickets. Former FBI acting Director McCabe confessed on 60 Minutes and elsewhere that he and Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein discussed ousting the president in May 2017, even going so far as contemplating Rosenstein's wearing a wire to capture the words of the president regarding his reason for firing Comey. Their weapon for ousting the duly elected president: the 25th Amendment to the Constitution.

A press blackout on news top FBI lawyer James Baker wanted Hillary Clinton prosecuted. The news is out that then-FBI director James Comey did indeed have some credible prosecutors for Hillary Clinton's mishandling of classified documents during her stint as secretary of state, passing around some of the U.S. government's most secret documents on an illegal private account attached to a server in some guy's bathroom. "No reasonable prosecutor" would take the case, Comey intoned, who then let the former secretary of state and then-presidential candidate off the hook. Actually, there was one, at least one, and he was sitting right next to Comey: none other than FBI general counsel James Baker, who admitted in congressional testimony that he did think Clinton's dishonest act merited prosecution.

Thank you, Pres. Trump: 18 trillion gallons of rain fall on thirsty California. For once, California's terrible-to-moderate drought that caused tight statewide water-use restrictions has abated. The southern Golden State is turning green in mid-winter after swollen skies dumped a record amount of rain this month. Look at what's happening here out in the Palm Springs desert! And some northern parts have enough snow to extend the ski season into July. It, of course, has nothing to do with the White House. But water-soaked rivers of atmospheric air from the north this month have delivered such a soaking to the thirsty state that with still a week yet to go, officials say California has received 18 trillion gallons of water this month alone. That's an amazingly large amount provided to the public with the absolute confidence that no one else is counting.

Networks Refuse to Cover Senate's 'No Russia Collusion' Report. The same networks that spent 2,202 minutes of collective airtime to push the Russia Collusion Media-Hoax are refusing to cover the Senate Intelligence Committee bipartisan report, which found no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. The Media Research Center (MRC) did the research and found that between January 21, 2017, and February 10, 2019, "ABC's World News Tonight, the CBS Evening News, and the NBC Nightly News [spent] 2,202 minutes on the Russia investigation [, which] accounted for nearly 19 percent of all Trump-related reporting [, and now] none of those three shows have even mentioned the investigation since NBC's report came out on February 12." The same is true elsewhere on the left-wing networks.

Networks: 2,202 Minutes on Russia Scandal, Zero for No Collusion Report. It's been two days since NBC's exclusive reporting that the Senate Intelligence Committee has found no material evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, and as of yet none of the three major broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) have given it even a single second of coverage in their evening newscasts. Considering these networks have given the Russia probe a massive 2,202 minutes of airtime, their silence on this major development is deafening. MRC analysts examining all coverage on ABC's World News Tonight, the CBS Evening News, and the NBC Nightly News found that those 2,202 minutes spent on the Russia investigation accounted for nearly 19 percent of all Trump-related reporting between January 21, 2017 and February 10, 2019. However none of those three shows have even mentioned the investigation since NBC's report came out on February 12. The situation has been much the same on those networks' flagship morning shows.

Someone Just Noticed The Middle-Class Revival Going On Under Trump. USA Today ran a surprising story on Tuesday [2/12/2019] headlined "Can the middle-class revival under Trump last?" It's surprising — shocking really — because it might just be the first time a major news outlet has admitted that there has been a middle-class revival under Trump.

Russia Hysteria Proves America's Foreign Policy Establishment Is A Raging Dumpster Fire. Chuck Todd got his MSNBC pals together on "Meet the Press Daily" to have a serious, objective, and intellectual discussion of foreign policy and politics. Just kidding. The Senate Intelligence Committee had just announced it found "no direct evidence" of collusion between President Trump and Russia. Democrats dispute this, without giving much reason why, which is a story in itself. But Todd and his panel largely ignored that. They were laser-focused on former Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort's legal troubles, which is supposedly the next bombshell in the Russia investigation.

Cotton says media was 'Stalin-like' in Ocasio-Cortez Green Deal cover up. Arkansas Republican Sen. Tom Cotton unloaded on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Green New Deal and said the media were "complicit" in burying the most radical parts of the deal. Cotton, a staunch Republican, appeared on The Hugh Hewitt Show on Tuesday and discussed the widely ridiculed Green New Deal that aims to implement sweeping changes across the nation. But what particularly caught Cotton's eye was how the media became complicit in hiding the now-infamous FAQ document circulated by the Ocasio-Cortez office, which included lines such as promising a job to "all people of the United States" — including those "unwilling to work" — and making air travel industry obsolete.

Trump's wild popularity overseas is one of media's best kept secrets. The mainstream media pretends that their scorn for President Trump is almost universally shared overseas. While globalists everywhere (along with their media allies) dislike him for standing up for national sovereignty, a rising tide of populist revolt is shaking them to their core. And Trump is a hero — even a superhero — to the growing number of anti-globalist populists around the world. Stark evidence of this popularity of President Trump comes from Italy, where a populist government won power — though the media tend to ignore this.

Minneapolis: Muslim refugee brutally rapes 10-year-old girl, media hides facts. A 34-year-old Muslim immigrant has been arrested and charged with brutally raping a 10-year-old girl in Minnesota and the local media in Minneapolis has refused to identify the man as a refugee from Somalia. KSTP 5, an ABC affiliate in Minneapolis, referred to the suspect, Ahmed Hersi Abdi as "A Minneapolis man." CBS affiliate WCCO 4 used the same description, giving no mention of the man's background or how he arrived in the U.S. The attack occurred Sunday evening in an apartment complex in the city's Cedar Riverside neighborhood, also known as "Little Mogadishu" for its high concentration of Somali refugees imported from United Nations refugee camps in Africa.

Democrats Are Showing Us All Who They Really Are — Let's Believe Them. The absolute horror uncovered by the Kermit Gosnell case shined a long-delayed spotlight on late-term abortions in America. Gosnell not only murdered viable infants very late in the pregnancy, but horrified investigators also discovered he actually kept trophies stored away in freezers on the premises. In case you've never read the grand jury's report on the horrors found inside Gosnell's clinic, I covered that extensively on my blog. The mainstream media tried to hide the scandal of the Gosnell case by simply refusing to cover it and dismissing it as a 'local news story' that only people in the state of Pennsylvania were interested in.

The truth in 15 minutes. The family of Nick Sandmann has retained the services of attorney Lin Wood to rectify the damage done to the young Mr. Sandmann's reputation following flawed reports of the encounter with Nathan Phillips at the Lincoln Memorial last month. Among those who falsely disparaged the young Mr. Sandmann is Minnesota's own Fifth District Rep. Ilhan Omar, though you would never know it if you get your news from the Star Tribune.

Biden Endorsed Segregation in 1975, Mainstream Media Dead Silent. Democrats have had an extremely bad week. From Virginia Governor Ralph Northam's past racist photos surfacing to HBO's Bill Maher mocking a black Republican Congressman, the liberal party can't seem to slow the madness. Enter former Vice President Joe Biden, who is now dealing with a serious racial issue of his own involving segregation and "black pride" [...]

The Mayors of the Worst Cities in America are Running for President. Newark is the most dangerous city in New Jersey, Tallahassee is the most dangerous city in Florida, and South Bend is the most dangerous city in Indiana. But instead of fixing their failed cities, the current mayor of South Bend, and the former mayors of Newark and Tallahassee want to run for president. Mayor Peter Buttigieg has announced that he's forming an exploratory committee for a 2020 run. Media reports have focused on the possibility that he might become America's first gay millennial president, instead of on the fact that he's headed a city since 2011 which has double the national and statewide violent crime rates. And a city where Hispanic poverty rates are 10% higher than the national average, African-American households have double the poverty rate, and Asian-American incomes are halved. South Bend was recently rated one of the "worst cities" to live in. The unemployment rates are higher than average, the property values are lower, and even the water quality is below average. Gushing media reports about the gay millennial mayor, a Harvard grad and a Rhodes scholar, overlook South Bend's poverty rate of 24.7% and that 45% of households are living near the poverty level.

CNN Hid Images and Video of Roger Stone's 72-Year-Old Wife Being Dragged Out of Home Barefoot and In Nightgown. On Monday Roger Stone told Judge Napolitano in a FOX Nation interview that his 72-year-old wife was also forced to stand outside barefoot and in her nightgown. For some strange reason this was not aired on CNN who had a camera crew at Stone's home during the arrest. The Gateway Pundit wrote CNN for comment — It would be completely irresponsible if they hid this from the American public.

Blackout: Why Won't TV News Talk About NY's New Abortion Law? It's been a full week since the state of New York legalized late-term abortions, yet none of the major national TV networks has bothered to mention the story. This deafening silence is in stark contrast to the alarmist coverage seen when a state passes legislation that the media see as curtailing "abortion rights."

Media shuts out prominent Hispanic pastor who agrees with Trump on border. The national media appears to have little interest in Ramiro Peña, the Texas pastor who remains one of President Donald Trump's most prominent Hispanic evangelical supporters and advisers. Much like a recent PBS/NPR poll that showed 50 percent of Latino adults approve of Trump's job as president, up a whopping 19 points from December, the media has not been eager to cover Peña's significant role, which included advising the president on the crisis over U.S. border security. "The deliberate suppression of Pastor Peña's views, which are shared by tens of millions of people throughout the country, was especially glaring when President Trump recently visited South Texas," reported MCR's Newsbuster.

Networks Give Roughly 15 Times More Coverage to Women's March Than March for Life. Despite what was a much delayed but important avalanche of headlines about the group's anti-Semitism, the 2019 Women's March took place Saturday and it still received nearly 15 times the broadcast network newscast coverage of the 47th annual March for Life that was held Friday [1/18/2019]. Between Wednesday morning and Saturday evening, the Women's March fetched 14 minutes and 26 seconds of coverage on the ABC, CBS, and NBC morning and evening newscasts. This stood in stark contrast to just 58 seconds for the March for Life.

All Three Networks Ignore 'March For Life,' Cover Pro-Abortion 'Women's March' Instead. On its 46th anniversary, all three major networks (ABC, NBC, and CBS) ignored the March for Life in Washington, D.C., the largest pro-life event in the nation, opting instead to cover the feminist Women's March rally. According to LifeNews, despite an estimated 100,000 people being in attendance at the pro-life march along with President Trump's address to the crowd via video, the left-wing machines could not so much as "give a passing mention to the March for Life" during the Friday morning [1/18/2019] shows.

Shutdown could shrink government. Civil service protection rules are confusing, convoluted, and the reason so many Democrat moles are able to get away with sabotage against our duly elected president. Americans are ruled by a bureaucracy accountable to no one. The shutdown, however, may provide an opportunity to eliminate thousands of government jobs permanently, according to some conservative thinkers. The argument is that if a furlough goes longer than 30 days, the job can be eliminated.

OMB issues guidance on Reduction in Force layoffs due to partial shutdown. A new statement from the Office of Management and Budget provides cold comfort for federal bureaucrats worried that furloughs during the partial shutdown could become permanent layoffs, as long as Democrats refuse to give in and fund the border barrier. There will be no immediate layoffs (what the federal government calls reductions in force — or RIFs) if and when the current partial shutdown passes the 30-day mark in four more days. As I explained yesterday in "Trump's shutdown trap?," federal law requires RIFs when federal employees are furloughed more than 30 days. But after the matter was raised and widely discussed, the OMB issued a statement that indicates that it would require an actual reorganization plan that would make furloughed positions permanently identified as unnecessary, in order for the furloughs to be RIFed.

FBI interview makes big news — so why is it still secret? James Baker — the general counsel of the FBI during both the Clinton email and Trump-Russia investigations — sat for two interviews with House investigators last October. After the sessions — one on Oct. 3, the other Oct. 18 — Republican Rep. Mark Meadows called parts of Baker's testimony "explosive." Republicans intended to make the interview transcripts public. The questioning was not conducted in a classified setting, and Baker had FBI and other lawyers with him the whole time. But the House still had to send the transcripts to the FBI for clearance, just to make sure public release would not reveal any classified or otherwise secret information.

U.S. woman stabbed 14 times by Somali migrant, media go dark. Morgan Evenson was walking home in downtown Minneapolis on the evening of Dec. 13 when a black man got out of his car, chased her down, tackled her and repeatedly thrust a 3 [to] 4-inch blade into her flailing body. The 26-year-old computer-store clerk frantically fought back, kicking, scratching and screaming for help. At some point, neighbors heard her screams and came to her aid. Her attacker — described as a Somali man in his early 20s, about 5-foot-7 with a slight build and wearing grey stone-washed jeans — fled. Evenson was left bleeding on the curb with 14 stab wounds on her arms, neck and back. Her kidney was lacerated. She was lucky to survive. It happened while she was walking home from the Apple Store, where she worked, about eight blocks away from her apartment. That's when the man attacked her for no apparent reason. Police, who have not made any arrests in the case, are calling it a botched robbery.

The Editor says...

Right. Maybe it was a "botched robbery," or maybe it was an Islamic terrorist going nuts over an unaccompanied female going out in public with her head uncovered.

Real Collusion in America Is Between Democratic Party and Liberal, Progressive News Media. The real crisis that has been manufactured in America is one by the liberal, progressive fake news media that refuses to report the truth. They have taken up the position that they will not report anything that is contrary to their goal to support progressive socialism in America. Also, they make sure that anything that would favor President Donald Trump is to not reported. And so, it is, on the issue of border security, when one confronts a progressive, socialist leftist who depends on ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, or PBS for their news reporting, not to mention Mother Jones or other far leftist internet sites, they are woefully uninformed.

Media Refuse to Discuss Angel Families, Victims of Illegal Alien Crimes. Since January 1, neither CNN nor MSNBC has booked a single "Angel Mom" — mothers of children brutally murdered by illegal aliens — as guests on their networks, per an analysis conducted by the Republican National Committee (RNC). The RNC told Breitbart News it has tracked both networks since the beginning of the year as they intensely bash President Donald Trump over the government shutdown that is now the longest ever in the history of the United States. Since the turn of the year to 2019 from 2018, neither network has conducted a single interview with any family members of victims of illegal alien crimes.

Peace is breaking out. Media won't cover it. Kim Jong Un was in Beijing this week as U.S. trade officials met with their Red Chinese counterparts. Behind the talk of tariffs and trade deficits, the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula loomed. A war that began 68 years ago nears its end. The American press is ignoring it, instead nattering on about nonsense.

CNN rejects local San Diego report on border wall because it doesn't support its 'narrative'. CNN is "news, corrupted." Seriously, the people over there are rejecting actual news because it doesn't support their manufactured "narrative," turning down a report they themselves commissioned from local station KUSI because they didn't like the facts-on-the-ground the report contained — or, more likely, the bigger fact on the ground that the local report supports the stance of a president who says and shows by numbers that there really is a crisis at our border.

San Diego-Based KUSI: CNN Disinvited Our Journalist Because We Reported Border Wall 'Does Work'. KUSI News, a television news outlet based in San Diego, California, said Thursday [1/10/2019] that CNN invited — and subsequently rescinded the invitation — for it to provide a reporter to give "a local view of the debate surrounding the border wall and government shutdown."

Black Gangbangers, Not White Guy, Killed 7-Year-Old Jazmine, Media Will Now Disappear. When a 7- year old girl named Jazmine Barnes was shot and killed two weeks ago, celebrities and media jumped on it as a racist hate crime by a blue-eyed white man based solely on an ID from a distraught mother and her three children. They tweeted nonstop that the shooter was a white male with blue eyes in a red truck and it was a hate crime. [...] But then it turned out the killers were two black guys in a grey car. The white man in the red truck passed by after the shooting. The story will now die.

Intersectionality at the Crossroads. [T]he inconsistency between the views and associations of the [women's] march leaders and the useful idiots who followed their call was highlighted in recent weeks when the media were compelled to finally report what had been known for a long time but kept hidden from credulous consumers of their pap: the Women's March leaders were linked inextricably to Louis Farrakhan, an anti-Semite, anti-homosexual, anti-white propagandist who spreads lies about slavery — ignoring the most significant role of Moslems in it even to this day. And the press hid the fact that women like Linda Sarsour were all in for Sharia, the religious-legal system that more than any other punishes women, gays, and blacks. Sharia creates the submission culture that keeps the poor at the bottom with little chance of upward mobility and society at such a low level of productivity that environmental protection and proper healthcare are unaffordable, and legitimizes slavery, which continues in places like North Africa. Indeed, her anti-American point of view was known months before the march in 2017 but barely, if at all, covered by the mainstream media.

If You Only Get Your News From CNN, You Have No Idea This Story Happened. A left-wing billionaire gave $100,000 towards an online misinformation campaign that mimicked Russian interference operations — but if you only get your news from CNN, then you have no idea that happened. Linkedin co-founder Reid Hoffman, an early investor in Facebook, was behind a six-figure misinformation campaign that involved falsely linking Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore to Russian influence operations during Alabama's December 2017 special election. Hoffman funded Democratic operatives who staged a "false flag" — in their own words — meant to falsely link Moore's campaign to Russian bots in order to boost Democratic candidate Doug Jones' Senate campaign. Jones went on to win the election after defeating Moore in an upset.

Not Reported by Fake News: Father of Guatemalan Boy Who Died in US Custody Declined Further Medical Treatment for Son. An 8-year-old Guatemalan boy died in Customs and Border Protection custody in New Mexico very early Tuesday morning [12/25/2018] after being transferred to the hospital earlier Monday. According to reports, the boy's father was with him in the hospital where he was diagnosed with a cold. Doctors gave the boy amoxicillin and medication to bring his fever down then released him.

Why Are Hershey's Kisses Suddenly Missing Their Tips? Bad kisses sound like a problem you haven't dealt with since your teenage years, but they're a serious concern right now for bakers who are accusing candy maker Hershey of selling its signature chocolate Kisses with broken off tips. The issue apparently initially came to light thanks to members of the Facebook group The Wedding Cookie Table Community.

Shooting of Criminal by Citizen NOT Reported by Police & NOT Unusual. On 7 December 2018, at about 7:45 p.m., the owner of the Alibaba's convenience store in Syracuse, New York shot and wounded an armed robber. The robber ended up in the hospital. The story made the news. A local reporter for syracuse.com, Patrick Lohmann, investigated the story and wrote it up. While doing a followup, Lohmann discovered the store owner had shot another robbery suspect six weeks earlier. That story did not make the news.

Media Blackout After Trump Launches Urban Council To Invest $100 Billion in Black Communities. It's been a busy few weeks in media land, what with Michael Cohen's sentencing and talk about whether Donald Trump will be impeached, or Michael Flynn's sentencing and talk about whether Donald Trump will be impeached, or Jamal Khashoggi's death and how that relates to whether Donald Trump will be impeached. [...] That being said, this doesn't give the media a pass on reporting other aspects of the Trump presidency — particularly those that might paint it in a favorable light. For instance, you basically had to actively search to find any mention of the Opportunity and Revitalization Council, a $100 billion initiative to deliver growth in urban communities.

Protesting French Chanted "We Want Trump" as Media Ignores Them. There appears to be a new French Revolution underway — an anti-climate change revolution. The French common folk appear to have rejected the globalists and embraced Donald Trump's country first mantra. There is a media blackout in the United States on the reason for the protests and riots.

On TV, Only Fox Locates Obama Boasting on Oil Boom: 'That Was Me, People!' When former president Barack Obama starts bragging about his record as president, sounding remarkably egotistical, the networks seem to ignore it. New York Times reporter Peter Baker reported on a Houston event where Obama sat next to former Bush Secretary of State James Baker (no relation to Peter) and boasted about how America's oil boom is all his doing: [Video clip]

The Escalating Assault on Citizen Journalism. In December 1997, after the FBI arrested independent journalist James Sanders for investigating the destruction of TWA Flight 800, not a single reporter at a post-arraignment press conference managed to frame even one First Amendment question. In fact, the Newsday reporter argued the government's case, insisting the Justice Department found insufficient evidence to declare Sanders a journalist. The fact that Sanders had already written two successful investigatory books did not count. By challenging the media's defense of a Democratic administration, Sanders all but sacrificed his First Amendment rights. At the time of Sanders's arrest roughly 40 percent of America was using the Internet. Within 20 years that figure would approach 90 percent. The Internet was the great equalizer. It enabled citizen journalists to report stories that the major media underreported or failed to report at all.

More about TWA 800.

Liberal media tell us the left is right, and the right is wrong. [Louis] Farrakhan, who heads the Nation of Islam, despicably compared Jewish people to insects in one recent rant. "I'm not an anti-Semite. I'm anti-termite," declared the left-wind bigot. Presidential daughter Chelsea Clinton rightly called his comments "dangerous." But there has been almost no coverage of Farrakhan on the broadcast networks for a year. That's especially appalling since the press all-but memory holed President Obama's ties to Farrakhan, too.

Former Senior Ohio Lawmaker Arrested for Murder of His Estranged Wife, Media Plays 'Guess the Political Party'. A former senior Ohio lawmaker who had served as assistant minority whip in the Ohio legislature was arrested this past weekend for the murder of his estranged wife. He had previously served nine months in state prison for assaulting her in 2014 while a common pleas judge in Cuyahoga County — a position he had been appointed to by then-Gov. Ted Strickland (D). But would you ever know that Lance Mason was a Democrat? Not if you relied on the media reporting.

Networks Silent as Dem 2020 Hopeful Compares ICE to KKK. Under most circumstances, a sitting United States Senator and potential presidential candidate comparing a federal law enforcement agency to the Ku Klux Klan would be major national news. However, after California Democrat and 2020 hopeful Kamala Harris did exactly that during a Senate hearing on Thursday, the broadcast networks decided it wasn't worth a single second of coverage. During a contentious confirmation hearing exchange with Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Ronald Vitiello, nominated to become the permanent head of the agency, Harris grilled him about a tweet he sent out three years earlier labeling the Democratic Party "neo-Klanist." Vitiello promptly apologized for the social media post and acknowledged that it was inappropriate.

Yes, Michelle Obama, YOU helped push out an independent government watchdog.. Michelle Malkin has the story the Obama-slobbering media won't touch.

The Press Is Public Enemy No. 1. Consider that in a typical presidential election, Washington correspondents vote 93 [to] 7 percent for the Democrat, while the rest of America votes somewhere around 50-50, according to Timothy Groseclose of George Mason University. The reason that we will never hear our moral superiors in the press condemn Maxine Waters, Tim Kaine, Keith Ellison, or Eric Holder for their endorsements of political violence, then, is that they do not see it as political violence. In their view, it's self-defense against those who threaten their ideology. There is a reason, as Chris Buskirk notes, Americans have seen very little coverage of the recent attacks and actual terrorism against Republicans: [...]

ABC, NBC Ignore Antifa Mob Assaulting Home of Fox News Host Tucker Carlson. The same night the liberal broadcast networks ABC and NBC were acting as though Trump's combative press conference on Wednesday was some kind of affront to the First Amendment, the Washington D.C. area home of Fox News Channel host Tucker Carlson was under assault by a radical leftist mob shouting threats. During both their morning and evening broadcasts Thursday, ABC and NBC ignored the actual attack on someone's free speech. The CBS Evening News was the only network broadcast program to mention the assault on Carlson's home.

105 Articles Cover Ilhan Omar's Win. Zero Cover Her Anti-Semitism, Finance Investigations, or Perjury Evidence. For two years, U.S. media has maintained a near-blackout on the specific evidence of Rep. Ilhan Omar's (D-Minnesota) disturbing character and legal issues. In the 18 hours after Omar was elected to replace Keith Ellison in MN Congressional District 5, the media left zero doubt as to why. At approximately 3:00 p.m. EST on Wednesday [11/8/2018], Google News was returning 105 links to the search term "Ilhan Omar" which had been posted since her victory. [...] Not one of the 105 linked articles presents the troubling evidence against Omar — except, in two or three cases, to dismiss it without explanation.

Media Uninterested in the First Korean Woman In Congress, Because She's a Republican. The media loves firsts. It's obsessively promoting the first gay governor. The first two Muslim anti-Semitic women in the House, one of whom is accused of marrying her brother (the media obviously isn't mentioning that part), and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the youngest elected dimwit. It's oddly uninterested in the first Korean-American woman in the House.

The case of the disappearing campaign issues. You don't have to be Sherlock Holmes to figure out why certain perennial concerns hyped by the mainstream media have disappeared from the 2018 campaign cycle. The disappearance illustrates the degeneration of the principal American mass media into mere propaganda outlets for the Democrats. When the topics seemed to work against Republicans, they were almost constantly drummed into the public's consciousness. They were a threat to our very democracy, and all good citizens were horrified, according to the instructions from our media betters. But now, because they reflect badly on Democrats, they have mysteriously vanished.

Why did nobody mention that Beto O'Rourke's wife is a billionaire heiress? Young Beto O'Rourke casts himself as the 'anti-Trump'. But his father-in-law, it turns out, is a billionaire property developer with a contentious relationship with non-white residents — not unlike the President. Beto's more the proto-Jared Kushner. The New York Times today [10/29/2018] revealed the highly interesting news that friend-of-the-little-guy Beto married well. Very well. His wife is not only the daughter of William D. Sanders, aka the Warren Buffet of real estate, Cockburn can reveal she is the only daughter. Sanders's portfolio is valued at about $20 billion.

Nearly a dozen Beto O'Rourke profiles, and almost none mention his crony capitalist background. Rep. Beto O'Rourke's, D-Texas, 1998 drunken driving accident isn't the only thing his media profilers have ignored. The New York Times did a fine job this week detailing the Democratic Senate candidate's shady history of political backscratching, including a real-estate deal he championed when he served on the El Paso City Council that would've benefited his billionaire father-in-law, developer William D. Sanders.

CBS Skips Anti-Israel Views of Muslim Democrat Running for Congress. CBS This Morning on Thursday [11/1/2018] fawned over the woman who would be one of the first Muslim women elected to Congress. But while journalist Reena Ninan hailed what could be a "Muslim wave" headed to Congress, she completely skipped the anti-Israel views of congressional candidate Rashida Talib. Sounding more like a press release than a journalist, Ninan enthused, "[Talib] tells me she's looking to change history at a time when most people think it just isn't impossible." The reporter parroted, "While many have focused on her faith, she says this moment is so much more." Candidates say a lot of things about themselves. How about asking a tough question? That didn't happen.

Why Did Media And Democrats Abandon Their Investigation Into Brett Kavanaugh? What happened to the multiple allegations of sexual misconduct levied against Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation battle? The claims ranged from Christine Blasey Ford's remotely plausible if unsubstantiated allegation of a violent attempted rape to Michael Avenatti's completely outlandish and also unsubstantiated allegation of hosting serial gang rape parties. From September 12 to October 6, the claims absolutely dominated all major media. They ran on the front pages of all major newspapers and filled the hours on cable and network news. Magazine journalists at The New Yorker ran with the claims, despite massive corroboration problems. The claims were taken so seriously by the media and some U.S. senators it led to serious delays of the confirmation voting process. A hearing was held during and after which all the talking heads on cable asserted Blasey Ford was completely "credible." Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Arizona, even maneuvered to reopen an FBI investigation to dig into the claims. Then they disappeared. Overnight.

NBC Tries, Fails To Defend Itself After Sitting On Information That Undermined Kavanaugh Accusers. An NBC reporter who interviewed one of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh's accusers, and who admitted to sitting on evidence that two of his accusers were not credible, is now trying to defend herself and her network. It's not working. [...] Last Thursday [10/18/2018(?)], NBC acknowledged that a second accuser represented by attorney Avenatti, whose name is still unknown, said her words were "twisted" in her sworn statement and that she never saw Kavanaugh spike punch or act inappropriately toward women. NBC had this information days before Kavanaugh's confirmation vote, but didn't report it until now. On Saturday, Snow took to Twitter to defend herself and her network for sitting on information that could have helped Kavanaugh gain some of his reputation back after the salacious allegations.

Why Did NBC And Time Magazine Sit On Their Avenatti Scoops For So Long? I think Time has an excuse. I can't imagine what NBC's excuse is. Remember that newsy quote from him about Democrats needing to nominate a "white male" to stop Trump in 2020? That came from a story in Time magazine. Avenatti responded predictably when liberals began attacking him over it yesterday, crying FAKE NEWS and demanding that Time reporter Molly Ball provide the full context. So she did. Here's the transcript posted last night of her exchange with Avenatti. Note the date. [...]

NBC News Hid Information that Would Have Cleared Kavanaugh of Avenatti Rape Allegations. NBC News deliberately hid vital information that would have helped clear Brett Kavanaugh of the serial rape allegations Julie Swetnick and her attorney, Michael Avenatti, leveled against him. On September 16, Kavanaugh and his loved ones were dropped into a pit of hell due to allegations of sexual assault from Christine Blasey Ford. Although her story quickly fell apart during public testimony, for the three-plus weeks that would follow, in an effort to derail his confirmation, Democrats and their allies in the establishment media did everything in their power to personally destroy this man as a drunken serial rapist. NBC News and Avenatti played a huge role in this obscene smear campaign. One notable example was NBC breathlessly publishing and airing an assault allegation against Kavanaugh that was quickly exposed as a hoax. NBC did not even bother to independently corroborate this allegation prior to airing it. A Democrat handed NBC the smear, and NBC ran with it.

Juanita Broaddrick is credible: Bill Clinton may have raped her. Almost a year ago, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand said that Bill Clinton should have resigned over his affair with Monica Lewinsky. At the time, I thought Gillibrand was wrong — not to mention a bit tardy — but now I'm undecided. What moved me, though, has little to do with Lewinsky and much more to do with a name that seems to have been forgotten: Juanita Broaddrick. She claimed Clinton raped her. Broaddrick's allegations first surfaced in the media 1992 as Clinton was running for President, and then resurfaced in 1999 when he was being impeached.

The Editor says...

Uh-oh. If the news media realizes that Juanita Broaddrick's story is true after all, how many other "right wing conspiracy theories" are also credible? What if Vince Foster really was murdered? What if TWA 800 really was shot down? What if Barack H. Obama really is a Muslim, and his legal name really is Barry Soetoro, and he really does use somebody else's Social Security number? What if the Oklahoma City bombing really was a terrorist attack (as Jayna Davis describes in her excellent book)? Ms. Broaddrick is lucky she didn't end up like Mary Caitrin Mahoney, Kevin Ives, Don Henry, Kenneth M. Trentadue, or Ron Brown.

An American Journalist Just Died After a Racist Beating, and the Washington Post Didn't Even Report It. While the Washington Post weeps and wails over Khashoggi, an anti-Semitic foreign Islamist, it has no interest in the murder of a Jewish journalist in the United States. [...] And there are no conversations about whether top Democrats like Obama and Holder appearing with Louis Farrakhan, or leaders of the Women's March supporting Farrakhan, helps encourage racist and anti-Semitic violence like this.

Donald Trump [is] More Popular than [the] Media Want You to Believe. We keep hearing about how divisive and unpopular President Trump is, about how "historically" unpopular he is. This is not even close to the truth. Doing an apples to apples comparison using the Gallup poll, Investor's Business Daily discovered that Trump's job approval numbers are right in line with three two-term presidents. As of right now, in the Gallup poll, Trump enjoys a 44 percent approval rating. And when Investor's Business Daily looked at the approval ratings of previous presidents during this same week in their respective presidencies, they found that Trump is tied with Barack Obama (44 percent) and is doing better than both Bill Clinton (41 percent) and even Ronald Reagan (42 percent).

McCaskill Scandal. How about the scandal involving Sen. Claire McCaskill's husband, who's been accused of using a federal program intended to help the poor to enrich himself in the 10 years since McCaskill joined the Senate? McCaskill is in a tight race in Missouri against challenger Josh Hawley, in a year when control of the Senate is up for grabs. So, a juicy scandal like this would normally be irresistible to reporters. Except McCaskill is a Democrat. And as the MRC found, this story got zero coverage on the big three networks. Then there's the scandal involving a former staffer for Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, who was arrested and charged with several felonies, after he disclosed personal information on Republican Senators on the Judiciary Committee during the Kavanaugh hearings. The networks completely ignored this story.

6 Political Scandals The Press Doesn't Want You To Know About. When the mainstream press isn't busy putting out negative — and often false or misleading — stories about President Donald Trump, they're equally busy burying scandals that involve Democrats. The Media Research Center recently documented this flagrant bias by omission.

Media Ignores Big Opening and Critical Acclaim for 'Gosnell' Movie. The new movie about Kermit Gosnell, the notorious Philadelphia late-term abortionist eventually convicted in the deaths of three infants, made it into the Top 10 films at the box office this past weekend — an impressive feat for a crowd-funded film. But you won't hear the mainstream media talking about it. "We were [No. 10] on Friday and Saturday, but slipped back to 12 on Sunday," Phelim McAleer, who co-produced the film with his wife, Ann McElhinney, told The Daily Signal. "We are the No. 1 independent movie of the weekend and [No. 5] per screen average across the U.S." "This has been achieved despite the mainstream media virtually refusing to review the film, despite it opening nationally," McAleer added.

Six Democratic Scandals That The Elite News Media Suffocated With A Pillow This Cycle. In the Trump era, liberal media bias is worse than ever. So, it shouldn't shock us that the Media Research Center's Newsbusters division probably has carpal tunnel syndrome from jotting down all the insanity that is transpiring across CNN, MSNBC, and the Big Three (CBS, NBC, and ABC). In this media bubble, Trump colluded with the Russians to win an election; he's a tax cheat, a serial sexual abuser, and the most corrupt politician since Henry Clay and the corrupt bargain of 1824. Outside of this glass case of emotion, the economy is growing at four percent. There are more jobs than job seekers, and job openings are at a whopping 7.1 million. Three million jobs have been created, new trade deals with Mexico and Canada are in motion, the Trump tax cuts have formed a solid base for growth, and more than three million working-class families have received bonuses of $1,000 or more. Oh, and consumer and small business confidence have reached 18-year highs. And did I mention that unemployment is at 3.7 percent. Yeah, things are going well, but the Democrat-media complex is hoping that the president fails, of course.

Rand Paul Reveals Media Hid Key Detail About GOP Baseball Attacker. Kentucky Republican Senator Rand Paul revealed on Wednesday [10/10/2018] that the media largely ignored a key detail from the attempted mass murder of Republican lawmakers last year at a baseball field in Virginia. Appearing on Fox News' "FOX & Friends," Paul condemned the violent rhetoric of the political Left and the Democratic Party and warned that someone is going to end up getting killed if the inflammatory rhetoric doesn't stop. "I was there at the ball field when Steven Scalise almost died from a very, very angry violent man who was incited really by rhetoric on the left," Paul said.

Rand Wonders Why Media Had Little Interest in This Detail About GOP Baseball Practice Shooting. On Wednesday morning, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) shared a shocking new detail about last year's attack at the Republican congressional baseball practice. When the shooter, James Hodgkinson, began firing on the lawmakers, he reportedly shouted, "This is for health care!" Some wondered why the media had not included this detail in their reporting at the time. [...] Unfortunately, a year after that horrific shooting, some leading officials are inciting violence against their political opponents. Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) told supporters to "harass" Trump administration officials in public. Some seemingly listened and proceeded to bully White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders out of restaurants. Former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton told CNN that people should be uncivil to Republicans because they deserve it. Then, just this Wednesday, former Attorney General Eric Holder told a crowd to "kick" Republicans.

Study: Economic Boom Largely Ignored as TV's Trump Coverage Hits 92% Negative. In four weeks, Americans go to the polls for the midterm elections that the news media are casting as a referendum on the Trump presidency. Over the summer, the broadcast networks have continued to pound Donald Trump and his team with the most hostile coverage of a President in TV news history — 92 percent negative, vs. just eight percent positive. For this report, MRC analysts reviewed all 1,007 evening news stories (1,960 minutes of airtime) about the Trump administration on ABC, CBS and NBC from June 1 to September 30, tallying the coverage of each topic and all evaluative comments made by anchors, reporters and non-partisan sources (such as voters or experts).

Pay No Attention To That 'Unexpected' Good Economic News Over There. The past week saw more signs that the growing economy is benefiting middle class households, including another jump in household income. Not that you'd know it from the coverage, which is wall-to-wall Brett Kavanaugh.

The Washington Post Sandbagged The Story That Might Have Cleared Brett Kavanaugh. If you are keeping score, this makes four people — Brett Kavanaugh, Mark Judge, Patrick Smyth, and Leland Keyser — who have denied this incident ever happened under penalty of perjury. The only person who has not made a statement under oath is... Christine Ford. Now the Wall Street Journal's Kimberly Strassel reports that the Washington Post knew of Keyser, they knew of her denial, and they refused to report it.

Media Continues Its Slow Suicide. Americans, in a recent poll, cited inaccuracy and bias as the key reasons why they no longer trust the media. But there is a more sinister agenda behind this collective media cacophony: To hide their complicity in the biggest political scandal of all time, which included the weaponization of the nation's most powerful government agencies to spy on a rival presidential campaign; the illegal leaking of classified information to friendly journalists to defame American citizens associated with the campaign; and the sabotage of an incoming presidency, the media is happy to distract us with manufactured non-scandals that advance the political interests of their friends.

Two Days Later: CNN Has Still Not Done A Story About Farzad Fazeli Who Attempted To Stab Republican Candidate. It has been two days since a man named Farzad Fazeli tried to stab Republican congressional candidate Rudy Peters with a switchblade and CNN has still not covered the story. [...] Do you think CNN would ignore this story if the political roles were reversed? Imagine if a Trump supporter tried to stab a Democrat candidate for Congress. Does anyone believe CNN would ignore that? They would likely turn it into a lead story and run it for days.

CNN Ignores Switchblade Attack On GOP Congressional Candidate. More than 24 hours after authorities announced the arrest of a California man who allegedly tried to stab a Republican congressional candidate, CNN has yet to inform its audience of the story. Farzad Fazeli, 35, allegedly made disparaging remarks about the Republican Party before pulling out a switchblade and attempting to stab Rudy Peters at a festival Sunday, according to the Alameda County Sheriff's Office. Peters is the Republican nominee in California's 15th Congressional District, where he is challenging incumbent Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell.

New York Times Covered Up Google Tape's Most Newsworthy Details. The New York Times reported on the explosive Google Tape back in March but chose not to informs its readers of virtually all the key details revealed during this company town hall. On Tuesday [9/11/2018], Breitbart News obtained video of an hour-plus long company meeting at Google that took place shortly after the 2016 presidential election. You can watch the full video to judge the context of these individual quotes for yourself — but in my view, what you have here is a smoking gun proving the biggest Internet search engine in the world (by far) intends to abuse its corporate power to affect the outcome of elections, to manipulate searches in a way that will result in political outcomes desired by a multinational corporation and Silicon Valley.

What Francis Knew. In 2016, after the film Spotlight — which portrayed a group of Boston Globe reporters who uncover a sex-abuse scandal covered-up by the Catholic Church — won the Academy Award for best picture, a cultural commentator praised the movie on the Vatican website. The Globe reporters, wrote Luca Pellegrini, "made themselves examples of their most pure vocation, that of finding the facts, verifying sources, and making themselves — for the good of the community and of a city — paladins of the need for justice." Two years later, as a far worse abuse scandal unfolds in the church — a scandal that may involve the pope himself — the Vatican is silent and the paladins of the news media seem eager to ignore the whole thing.

Double Standard: Obama Defended Russia In His South Africa Speech. The varied accusations of treason all hinge on Trump not being sufficiently critical of Russia. Meanwhile Obama had delivered a speech in South Africa which was widely praised for its supposed covert attacks on Trump. But here's a part of the speech that the media chose not to emphasize because it would only reveal the double standard of Russiagate.

Not One Single Liberal Mainstream Media Outlet Carries Papadopoulos Spygate Revelation that Obama DOJ Set Him Up! Former Trump campaign staffer George Papadopoulos was sentenced on Friday [9/7/2018] to 14 days in prison after being set up by the Obama Deep State in the 2016 election. George Papadopoulos went on CNN and ABC this weekend to discuss his role in the Spygate scandal. Papadopoulos told the liberal anchors about how he was set up by Obama spy Stephan Halper in London after he was brought on by the Trump campaign.

Flashback: Obama prosecuted staff leakers, gave lie-detector tests, 'paranoid'. Should President Trump need a model to use to track down leakers inside his administration like the "anonymous" insider who challenged his authority in a New York Times op-ed, he need go no further back than the Obama administration that prosecuted leakers and shutout the media. According to reports at the time from even New York Times journalists, no administration was tougher on leakers and punishing to the media than Obama's, a saga reinforced by reporters who have called Trump's team more forthcoming. Criticism of Obama's attacks on the media and leakers did not just come in tweets and TV appearances by journalists but in an official report from the Committee to Protect Journalists, authored by former Washington Post Executive Editor Leonard Downie Jr.

Explosive Ivy League Study Repressed For Finding Transgender Kids May Be A Social Contagion. "Rapid-onset gender dysphoria" among teens and young adults may be a social contagion linked with having friends who identify as LGBT, an identity politics peer culture, and an increase in internet use, finds a study out this month from a Brown University professor. The study was quickly yanked from Brown's news releases after a transgender activist feeding frenzy, and the journal it was published in is reconsidering the publication. There is a parent and researcher-driven petition to stand behind the publication of the first study to look in detail at rapid-onset gender dysphoria.

WaPo Buries Bush/Obama Connection To Pin State Department Policy On Trump Administration. The Washington Post published an article about the U.S. government choosing not to renew the passports of people born near the border, as they are skeptical that those people were actually born in the country. It's not until the ninth paragraph that the article begins to address that the policy began under the Bush administration and continued under Obama. The article was titled, "U.S. is denying passports to Americans along the border, throwing their citizenship into question" and was written by Kevin Sieff. The article addressed the problems faced by "a growing number of people whose official birth records show they were born in the United States but who are now being denied passports."

Household Income Jumps To All-Time Highs Under Trump: Why Isn't This Big News? Median household income is up more than 4%, the economy is growing fast, optimism is at decades long highs. Not that you'd know it, since the press is too busy trying to drive President Trump from office.

O'Rourke Media Profiles Didn't Report on Serious Details of 1998 DWI Arrest. In more than a dozen media profiles of Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D., Texas) and his Texas Senate candidacy written over the past two years and reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon, no publications delved into the serious details about his 1998 arrest for driving while intoxicated. Those details now include he caused a crash and he attempted to flee the scene, according to a witness who spoke to police.

New Mexico Compound Story Buried by Opposition Media. What do you think would happen if a compound was found in rural Kansas where children were being held against their will? Particularly if at least one of the children had died mysteriously and been buried secretly. And the surviving children were undergoing military-style training designed to help them carry out killing sprees in nearby Kansas government schools. Finally, the compound was founded and run by the homosexual-hating Westboro Baptist Church. Can you say Opposition Media jihad against Christians? First network news reader anchors would be on-site "investigating." Childcare experts would be interviewed to explain to the audience at home the harm of "forcing religion down children's throats." Other experts would talk about exposing vulnerable children to firearms. Neighbors would be button-holed and asked about the compound and its inhabitants.

The Silence Over A Potential Chinese Spy In Feinstein's Office Is Deafening. With concerns over attempts by foreign adversaries to influence the American political system at a fever pitch — notwithstanding that in the case of the president, the commentariat's charges of certain treasonous Russian collusion have grudgingly been downgraded in slightly more sane quarters to dubious alleged campaign finance infractions — that the story of a Chinese spy in Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein's office has seemingly died is simply stunning. From the start, this was a story the media had no interest in covering. Now it is apparent that our political class has no interest in probing it.

A Perfect Storm Threatens America's Survival. Fake news on TV and in newspapers starts with outright lies and slander against conservatives and the president of the United States. One survey found that 90% of news coverage is slanted against the president. Even more insidious is censorship by omission. Important stories on sites like American Thinker, Frontpage Mag, Breitbart, LifeZette, the Geller Report, and Drudge will rarely or never be found in the so-called mainstream media.

Who Watches the Media Watchdogs? Who was it that told America Al Gore won the 2000 election? Who told us the Fort Hood shooter wasn't an Islamist terrorist? Who told us a meek and mild Michael Brown was shot with his hands up, begging to surrender? Who told us CAIR, the Muslim Brotherhood front in the U.S., is a "civil rights organization"? Who is still telling us that after 9-11, there was a violent "backlash" against Muslims in America? Who told us climate change is settled science? Who ducked the story about abortionist Kermit Gosnell's Philadelphia slaughterhouse? Who told us all the troubles in the Middle East are caused by Israel? Who told us that Robert Mueller's list of indictments proves Trump colluded with Russia? Who told us it was Trump who initiated the "policy" of family separation at the southern border? Who ran a fake magazine cover to show Trump looming over a crying Honduran toddler?

Flashback: LA Times Refuses to Release Video of Obama Praising Radical Former PLO Operative Rashid Khalidi. The Mueller Special Counsel and New York District Attorney's Office seek to destroy President Trump for paying out $130,000 in hush money to two former paramours. The New York District Attorney's office has picked up the case because New York state crimes can not be pardoned by a president. It should be noted that Barack Obama's close associates allegedly bribed Jeremiah Wright with $150,000 to go away before the 2016 election. And the liberal media did all it could to protect Barack Obama throughout his presidency.

More about the Khalidi tape.

Dear CNN: This Previously Deported 'Dreamer' Brutally Slaughtered a Minnesota Woman — Is That 'News?'. Here's another story that you won't see on CNN. It doesn't fit the sweet, innocent border-crosser just looking for a better life. Enedelia Perez Garcia, 27, was stabbed to death on August 12 in Shakopee, Minnesota. An illegal immigrant, Fraider Diaz-Carbajal, 35, has been charged with second-degree murder (not premeditated) in relation to her death. And guess what? He had a lengthy criminal record.

New York Times Deletes Immigration Status Of Mollie Tibbetts's Killer From Headline. The New York Times opted to delete the immigration status of the man suspected of killing Iowa college student Mollie Tibbetts in an update to a headline about the incident Wednesday [8/22/2018]. According to the Twitter account Editing TheGrayLady, The Times made a number of changes to the headline of its story on Tibbetts's murder before finally falling on "Immigrant Is Charged In Mollie Tibbetts Murder in Iowa, and Trump Seizes on Case."

The Most Underreported Stories Of The Week. If you've been paying attention to the news lately, you would think the only things people care about are Omarosa's new book filled with unsubstantiated claims about the president and former CIA director John Brennan losing his security clearance. But there are other noteworthy things going on in the country, including the alleged Muslim extremist Compound found in New Mexico, Governor Cuomo saying "America was never that great," Antifa violence and Keith Ellison's #MeToo moment.

Huffpo Reporter Urges Media Not to Cover Antifa Violence. Vox published an article about the planned Unite the Right rallies this past weekend that indicted antifa for engaging in violence while claiming to be against fascism. "This weekend in Charlottesville and DC, though, it wasn't neo-Nazis and white supremacists the antifa attacked," the author explained. "It was police who were there to help keep the peace among all the demonstrators and journalists who were there to cover the events."

Media Conspiracy Theories About Devin Nunes Are Getting Out Of Control. It is worth noting that Nunes' and others' work doing real congressional oversight has deeply embarassed the media. Without congressional oversight, the country would not know:

• That Clinton and the DNC secretly funded Fusion GPS's dossier.

• That Trump affiliates were wiretapped during the campaign.

• That a $50 million public relations operation is ongoing to feed Russia stories to the media and government even now.

• That the FBI is working with this group running the PR operation.

• That Bruce Ohr's wife worked for Fusion GPS.

• That top officials were leaking to CNN.

• That the unverified dossier was used to justify FISA warrant applications.

• That no official intelligence was used in Peter Strzok's electronic communication launching the investigation.

And much, much more.

DOJ & FBI Land a 757 Jet in Clinton's Hometown Little Rock, Arkansas; Load It With Boxes & Documents. This is very interesting. A stealth DOJ flight into Little Rock and then back to Virginia — or would have been stealth if it were up to the mainstream media. [...] Apparently loaded with evidence.

Antifa Attacks Journalists; Journalists Then Shamed for Reporting On It. What a mess the radical left has made of reality this week, particularly when it comes to Antifa and their quest to literally kill the President. Antifa, or the "anti-fascist" wing of the militant, radical left has long been attempting to convince us that they are freedom fighters of some sort, even though they themselves are openly advocating against the First Amendment, and promoting the same sort of authoritarian culture control that allowed Adolf Hitler to rise to power in the 1930's. Now, they have even somehow convinced the mainstream media that reporting truthfully on their actions is somehow wrong, even when those actions were vile, reprehensible, and downright fascist in their own regard.

The Sound of (Media) Silence, Minnesota Edition. Keith Ellison's alleged domestic abuse of a former girlfriend is not his leading disqualification to serve as Minnesota Attorney General. I think his leading disqualifications for the office are his past involvement with the hate cult known as the Nation of Islam (and his continued lying about same) along with his support for cop killers. Yet we have heard not a word from the Minnesota media about Ellison's public record in either case as he seeks the position of Minnesota's top law enforcement officer, while the domestic abuse allegations have been accorded a banner headline — ""Keith Ellison denies abuse allegations," as it reads in the hard copy — at the top of page one of the Star Tribune today [8/13/2018].

NBC News Ignores Antifa Attack On Their Own News Crew In Charlottesville. NBC News has ignored the story of their own reporter and news crew being attacked in the streets of Charlottesville by Antifa marchers on Saturday [8/11/2018].

Levin: The Obama admin interfered in TWO elections, and crickets. Thursday [8/9/2018] on his nationally syndicated radio program, LevinTV host Mark Levin pointed out the hypocrisy of the Democrats' hysteria over foreign interference in American elections. Levin reminded listeners that the State Department under the Obama administration used taxpayer dollars to build a campaign to oust Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Israeli parliamentary election.

Left Working Furiously To Bury Feinstein Spy Story. The revelation that California Senator Dianne Feinstein's office manager was a Chinese spy has generated a huge backlash, but not against the liberal Senator. Instead of prompting a deeper media or government probe of the former Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence the experience of our friend Ben Weingarten suggests that there is a concerted DiFi Spyeffort to stifle the story and marginalize anyone who digs into it.

Why Is the Mainstream Media Ignoring the New Mexico Compound/Islam Story? News broke this week that a deranged man, Siraj Wahhaj, was arrested for training a group of starving children at a filthy New Mexico compound how to carry out school shootings. Still, despite the newsworthy aspects of the story, including a Muslim ringleader, children, and the potential for deadly school shootings, mainstream news outlets have covered it only briefly, if at all. The story, which involved minors, has a particularly ideological angle that outlets seem uncomfortable lingering over for too long. Not only were Siraj Wahhaj and his adult companions "heavily armed," but CBS reported, "Taos County Sheriff Jerry Hogrefe previously said adults at the compound were 'considered extremist of the Muslim belief.' He did not elaborate, saying it was part of the investigation."

Father of New Mexico Islamist Compound Leader Is Linda Sarsour's 'Mentor'. Siraj Ibn Wahhaj Jr., 40, of Clayton County, Georgia, was arrested along with his two sisters and two other adults last Friday in New Mexico on charges of felony child abuse for holding 11 starving children in an underground trailer hidden from view in a compound described as "overflowing" with weapons and ammunition. But there is more to this story that is not appearing in the nightly news accounts we've all been following. Nobody is talking about Wahhaj's well-connected father, Siraj Wahhaj Sr., a radical Brooklyn imam who is the spiritual adviser to Democratic Socialist and Bernie Sanders supporter Linda Sarsour.

ABC/CBS Refuse to Report Links to Muslim Extremism at New Mexico Compound. The disturbing reports about the mysterious New Mexico compound were 11 starving children and one little boy's body were found grew even darker on Wednesday, after court documents were released alleging that the kids were being trained to carry out school shootings. Despite those revelations, ABC's World News Tonight and the CBS Evening News still refused to report the connection to Muslim extremism by the five adults there. The alleged training appeared to be the final straw for NBC because, up until that point, they were in lockstep with the rest of their liberal colleagues and omitted the extremism connection from their reports. ABC seemed to be tired of reporting on the disturbing compound because they only gave it a news brief lasting only 15 seconds.

Media Omits New Mexico Compound Leader's Muslim Ties. Media outlets are leaving out a key detail about the New Mexico compound leaders who were reportedly training young children to commit school shootings. Eleven children were recently rescued from the "filthy" compound, which police say appears to be run by Siraj Wahhaj and Lucas Morten. Wahhaj, the son of a prominent imam, was accused in court documents released Wednesday of training the children on the compound to commit school shootings.

Democrats have their own foreign espionage problem. Imagine if it emerged that the Republican chairman of the House or Senate intelligence committee had a Russian spy working on their senate staff. Think it would cause a political firestorm? Well, this week we learned that Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., had a Chinese spy on her staff who worked for her for 20 years, who was listed as an "office director" on payroll records and served as her driver when she was in San Francisco, all while reporting to China's Ministry of State Security through China's San Francisco Consulate. The reaction of the mainstream media? Barely a peep.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein's Ties To China Go Way Deeper Than An Alleged Office Spy. As media, intelligence agency, and political scrutiny of foreign meddling is seemingly at its apex, a story with big national security implications involving a high-ranking senator with access to America's most sensitive intelligence information has been hiding in plain sight. The story involves China and the senior U.S. senator from California, and former chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, Democrat Dianne Feinstein. It was buried eight paragraphs into a recent Politico exposé on foreign efforts to infiltrate Silicon Valley, as a passing example of political espionage.

Outrageous: Media shrug off Feinstein spy scandal story. Imagine for a minute if Representative Devin Nunes or Trey Gowdy or Matt Gaetz had employed a Russian spy for two decades. Imagine further that this Republican solon were married to a spouse who had made a fortune investing in Russia. Do you think such news would receive less than wall-to-wall coverage on CNN, MSNBC, or any of the other television news operations? Yet, with very little media attention, the story has emerged that Senator Dianne Feinstein — of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, with access to the highest-level secrets — employed for two decades a spy who reported to China's Ministry of State Security (MSS). When the news was first made public, buried paragraphs deep into a Politico story, hardly anyone noticed. [...] If Lowe is the spy, then a scandal was completely covered up for five years. Let's see: who was in charge of the FBI then, allowing a Democrat senator to fire a spy who had spied for twenty years? That's right: James Comey. The rot is far deeper than we suspected.

Feinstein's Chinese Spy Identified — 'Russell Lowe' — Was Office Manager Not just a Driver — Feinstein Aide for 20 Years! The Chinese spy who worked for Senator Dianne Feinstein was identified on Monday night [8/6/2018]. The Daily Caller reported the name of the spy tonight: Russell Lowe. Russell Lowe was Senator Feinsein's office manager. Lowe is a Chinese-American who spent 20 years as the aide to Dianne Feinstein. Lowe worked for Feinstein while she was chair of the US Senate Intelligence Committee.

Far Left Mobs Riot In 3 Major US Cities — NOT ONE Mainstream Outlet Reports on the Widespread Leftist Violence. Far left violent Antifa mobs rioted in three Major US cities this past weekend. Antifa mobs attacked police and conservatives in Portland, Providence and Berkeley. Antifa cracked skulls and beat protesters and attacked grandmothers in Portland, Oregon on Saturday [8/4/2018]. Far left Antifa thugs destroyed property, beat conservatives and abused police in Providence, Rhode Island on Saturday. And on Sunday far left Antifa mobs rioted and vandalized a Marine recruiting office in Berkeley, California. NOT ONE national mainstream media outlet carried reports on left-wing violence in three major US cities this weekend.

Media Blackout: 13-Year-Old Girl was Decapitated by a Pair of Illegal Aliens in Alabama. A preliminary hearing Thursday [7/12/2018] gave more information into a grisly double homicide in Madison County. Mariah Lopez, a 13-year-old, was decapitated and her grandmother, Oralia Mendoza, was also killed. Investigators now believe the case has connections to a drug cartel. 26 year-old Yoni Martinez Aguilar, one of the capital murder suspects, appeared before a judge on Thursday.

Freeing People from Left-Wing Lies. Because real people don't tell big lies, they assume that others won't, either. Hence, when Hitler, or the WaPo, repeats big lies over and over, people tend to end up believing them so long as they don't hear any contradictory voices. That's why so many Americans think abortion is legal only in the first trimester or for the hard cases when in fact it's legal for any reason at any time during a pregnancy. That's why so many Americans think Trump somehow colluded with Russia even though there is not a shred of evidence to indicate that. That's why so few Americans know that Carter Page, the supposed Russian spy targeted by the FISA warrant, helped the FBI sting to capture Russian spies in 2013. Clearly, the media have to work hard to hide that from the bubble people they're trying to fool. That's why few Democratic voters know that the NYT has armed guards to protect its newsroom even as it says making it harder for average citizens to have guns is a good thing.

We Now Have a Direct Line From Russia To... The Media. We're fretting about Facebook ads hoping to influence the election... yet this is a direct line from Russia to the mainstream media. Look at all the trouble Russia went through to set up, staff, develop, finance, hide, spoof, and disguise their "Troll Farm" operation — all in the hopes of turning some Facebook heads amidst a million other ads and issues. But with Steele and Fusion GPS, all it takes is a word to a Steele "source" and a week or so later it's being directly disseminated to the most influential segment of US society: the national press. [...] It's unimaginable, but it happened. The FBI allowed uncorroborated, foreign-sourced derogatory info on a presidential candidate, paid for by his opponent, to be used as credible evidence in a FISA hearing in order to gain access to the communications of a former campaign member.

Trump Gives $400,000 to Repair Military Cemeteries — Liberal Media Ignores the Story. President Trump has donated his salary each quarter to different federal agencies. President Donald Trump donated his first-quarter 2018 salary to the Department of Veterans Affairs. Of course, the media has mostly ignored this generous move by the US president.

McCain Flunky Who Weaponized the IRS Now Controls All Internal DoJ/FBI Probes. As corruption continues at the DoJ/FBI, it is important to know the name of an operative who is working behind the scenes in a powerful position. That person is Henry Kerner. Former McCain staffer, Henry Kerner, a deep state bureaucrat, has oversight over whistleblowers and internal probes. This is no ordinary staffer. This man hates conservatives. Senator John McCain's Staff Director Henry Kerner urged the IRS' Steve Miller and Lois Lerner to target the tea party and any conservative groups until its "financially ruinous". Henry Kerner is now in charge of all internal investigations in the government. In his past positions, he was in investigative control during Obama's scandals.

The Crimes Committed By Illegals This Month You Probably Didn't Hear About. The liberal media has been too busy breathlessly reporting on the Trump administration's "Zero Tolerance" policy to give attention to the heinous crimes committed by people who shouldn't be in this country in the first place. Now of course these crimes go ignored or underreported because they don't fit the liberal agenda, and they also make the case for actually enforcing our immigration laws and building Trump's wall.

The Top 50 Liberal Media Bias Examples. Probably the single worst example of liberal media bias is the media's steadfast refusal to accurately report the monstrous evils of the Soviet Union — even still to this day. It didn't matter how many millions of Soviet citizens that Joseph Stalin and his successors murdered, it didn't matter how evil the Soviet Union was, the liberal media was not going to report about it. The media even awarded itself a Pulitzer Prize through the lies of one Walter Duranty a New York Times columnist that was a shill for the murderous Soviet Union.

Barack Obama Says He's 'First American President From Kenya' In Foreign Speech. Former President Barack H. Obama had a slip of the tongue during a speech in Kogelo, Kenya today [7/21/2018]. "Now, three years ago, I visited Kenya as the first sitting American President to come from Kenya," he said. There was a pause and some awkward laughter from the crowd after he made his remark at the 5:49 mark of the 15-minute speech.

Nets Turn a Blind Eye to San Francisco Allowing Illegals to Vote. Which would you say was more important, The Brady Bunch house going up for sale in Los Angeles or San Francisco giving illegal aliens the right to vote? Well, for ABC's World News Tonight and NBC Nightly News, it was the former. On Thursday [7/19/2018], San Francisco began a campaign to register illegal immigrants so they could vote in school board elections. Instead of reporting on that controversial liberal policy, ABC and NBC chose to focus on frivolous topics like the Brady Bunch house. ABC also fawned over Billy Joel and Bruce Springsteen playing together at Madison Square Garden, while NBC touted Baltimore banning sugary drinks from kid's menus and parents fighting at Little League games.

The Media's Self-Inflicted Gunshot Wounds. In 2002, Freddie [Cheaves] decided to strike a blow for black people against their one true enemy — the L.A. Times! Now, the Times has a mile-wide bias in favor of black activists and their causes. This is a newspaper that had no problem putting the lives of every woman in the city at risk by sitting on a story about an at-large black rapist-murderer. This is a paper that hid the description of an at-large black serial everyone's lives at risk — all so as not to spread "negative images" of black men. So what was Freddie's beef? We may never know. [...] It turned out that Freddie had no bomb. He gave himself up and was arrested, tried, and sent to state prison. You'd think that if there's one crime the L.A. Times would report on thoroughly, it would be a crime committed on L.A. Times property. Literally, a crime that happened in their own [...] building. But no. The Times purposely sat on any mention of Cheaves' accusations against the paper. I say "purposely" because when the story first went online the day of the incident, reporter Anthony McCartney dutifully mentioned those details. But within hours, "Not Me" from Family Circus had magically erased any mention of the "L.A. Times kill our black kids" rant. I emailed McCartney that morning, and he was [angry] at the redaction. The poor [fellow] obviously didn't realize the character of the people he worked for. In all of the Times' subsequent coverage of Cheaves' arrest, trial, and conviction, the paper never once mentioned the substance of Cheaves' complaint.

Did The FBI Ignore Evidence That A 'Foreign Entity' Hacked Clinton's Emails? Last week we learned that a "foreign entity" may have been secretly receiving Hillary Clinton's emails while she was Secretary of State, including many that contained classified information. And that the FBI apparently ignored this information during its "investigation." The reaction by the press to this bombshell? Crickets. [...] If what Gohmert is saying is true, and he repeatedly claims to have the evidence, the disinterest shown by the FBI at this revelation is simply astounding.

Obama's Meddling in Foreign Elections: Six Examples. While the media obsess over an alleged Russian conspiracy to collude with Donald Trump to affect America's 2016 presidential election, what about Obama's interference in the elections of other countries? Most Americans have no idea that President Obama meddled in elections all over the world. And apparently, the media decided there's no reason for Americans to know about this illegal activity. [...] The media is hysterical about a flimsy conspiracy theory that Russia colluded with Trump to steal the 2016 election but was mostly silent about Obama's efforts to control the outcome of elections in at least six countries during his tenure.

Media Silent As US Agrees To 'Full Implementation' of United Nations Gun Control Pact. While the United States is typically set apart from other countries when it comes to gun laws, a recent conference with the United Nations has raised major red flags, as the U.S. agreed to enact "full implementation" of an international agreement on gun control that will violate Americans' constitutional rights by adding their personal information to a global database. The Third Review Conference (RevCon) of the United Nations' Program of Action (PoA) on Small Arms and Light Weapons was held in New York last week with a 2018 agreement, which states that its purpose is to serve as "a renewed commitment to prevent, combat and eradicate the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons in all its aspects."

Illegal Entrants and Separating Family Members. Ignored by most of the mass media and Trump haters are several relevant facts germane to this discussion. First, during the Barack Obama and George W. Bush administrations, border guards serving our nation regularly arrested adults seeking illegal entry. And, when those adults had children with them, the adults were separated from the youngsters while the lawbreakers were being held. Then, adults and children were reunited. Was there any uproar about this from left-leaning politicians and media during the previous administration? Hardly a peep!

An Inconvenient Truth: Greenhouse Gas Emissions Are Falling Under Trump. Environmental data for 2017 are pouring in, and the results might not be what you'd expect. In the United States, where President Trump has promised to unshackle the coal industry and to abandon an international climate change treaty, greenhouse-gas emissions fell last year and are expected to continue falling. In Europe, where political leaders consider climate change an urgent priority, emissions rose last year.

The Editor says...

The volcanos and termites and cows don't care who the politicians are. They will keep producing carbon dioxide day after day, no matter what laws are enacted.

Media Ignore Dem Staffer Found Guilty of Bank Fraud. A Democratic aide is arrested while attempting to flee the country, ultimately pled guilty to felony charges, and an investigation found that he violated numerous standards of conduct imposed on House employees. Sound like a news story? In the two days since former Democratic House IT aide Imran Awan pleaded guilty to bank fraud, no broadcast news outlet has bothered to report on the story. This lack of coverage reflects the media's historic disinterest in case.

More about Imran Awan.

Democrats are in a crisis and the media won't talk about it. The Democratic Party is in an ongoing crisis, but most of the national media aren't interested. They'd rather talk about the new "rock star," Democratic Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Coretz, and ignore that the party is up in flames. Both Republican and Democratic voters are turning out in record numbers for their primary elections this year, according to analysis published this week by the Hill. Democrats have a slight advantage by about a million votes, but that's only in primaries.

Media Blackout: Miami Serial Killer Turns Out to Be an Illegal Alien. A Honduran national in the United States illegally has been charged with killing two women in Miami over the past three months and dumping their bodies on the street, police announced Monday [6/18/2018]. Juan Carlos Hernandez-Caseres, 37, was arrested Saturday morning [6/23/2018] for the murders of Ann Farrin, 41, and Neidy Roche, 39. Both women, police said, were prostitutes.

Report Alleges Obama Admin. Forced Psychotropic Drugs On Illegal Alien Kids To Calm Them Down. Several days ago, LU's Ben Bowles uncovered a newly released report published by the ACLU claiming that "migrant children long have reported varied mistreatment in CBP custody, including sexual, physical, and verbal abuse, and the deprivation of basic needs such as food, water, and emergency medical care." As Bowles noted in his last sentence, the abuses occurred between 2009 and 2014 — the Obama years — which explains why the mainstream media have still not touched the story.

Obama Separated 72,410 Children from Their Illegal Immigrant Parents in 2013. You haven't seen this anywhere in the liberal news this week.

[#7] Obama and Democrats Incentivized This 'Family Separation.' [#9] The ONLY Way to Unite Families Is to Release Them into America. Obviously, we cannot have children living in adult detention centers. Obviously, we cannot have adults living in child detention centers. Therefore, the only way to "reunite" these families is to release these illegals into our country. The media will not tell you this because the media do not want you to know that flooding America with non-citizens is their true agenda. The rich and powerful love to exploit and abuse these individuals, as they can leverage their immigration status for illegally low wages, and politicians are salivating at the chance to bestow voting rights on them — and thus entrench their power.

Anyone Notice That Trump Is Now Tied With 'Popular' Obama On Job Approval? President Trump can't get a break from negative press coverage, but somehow his approval rating continues to edge upward. In fact, it's now tied with where the "extremely popular" President Obama was at this point in his first term.

Here Are The Photos Of Obama's Illegal Immigrant Detention Facilities The Media Won't Show You. The media and political class become more and more outraged over the Trump administration's decision to detain and prosecute immigrants illegally crossing the border. Lost in the debate is any acknowledgment that President Obama's administration also used detention facilities. Current U.S. immigration laws, when enforced, have the consequence of temporarily separating adults who arrive with children into separate detention facilities in order to prosecute the adults. The policy of prosecuting immigrants for crossing the border illegally has been in place for multiple administrations. The Obama administration prosecuted half a million illegal immigrants and similarly separated families in the process. So did the Bush administration.

15 Photos of Obama's Illegal Alien Child Detainees That Legacy Media Won't Show You. Democrats aren't just manufacturing photos of fake news. They're now resorting to using photos of Obama-era immigration policies — including separating children from adults — and claiming they're President Trump's.

Here Are Horrifying Photos Of Obama's Illegal Alien Facilities The Media Refuses To Show You. The media and political class become more and more outraged over the Trump administration's decision to detain and prosecute immigrants illegally crossing the border. Lost in the debate is any acknowledgment that President Obama's administration also used detention facilities. Current U.S. immigration laws, when enforced, have the consequence of temporarily separating adults who arrive with children into separate detention facilities in order to prosecute the adults.

Democratic Lawmaker: Obama Admin Kept Child Migrant Crisis 'Very Quiet'. Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) claimed in an interview Saturday that the Obama administration tried to cover up the number of unaccompanied minors crossing the United States' southern border. "It was kept very quiet under the Obama Administration. There were large numbers of people coming in. The Obama administration was trying to keep this quiet," the Texas Democrat told CNN's Fredricka Whitfield on Saturday [6/16/2018].

Mueller's Bumbling and Hysterical Special Counsel Team Is Getting Pummeled in Court — Media Is Ignoring All of This. The attorneys representing Concord Management, one of the Russian Companies that the corrupt Mueller team accused of impacting the 2016 Presidential election, crushed the "Unlawfully Appointed Special Counsel" in court last week again. They continue to make a laughing stock out of the Mueller team of misfit and conflicted attorneys. Mueller's team of ignorant and misguided attorneys really have no chance. They never expected anyone to take them to court on their fake Russian indictments and are certainly no match for the attorneys representing Concord Management.

Why Do They Hate Us? It's bad enough to "censor" one's opponent, as the fake news does every minute with lies and omissions and outrageous claims. The media were hoping Trump would fail at the Singapore summit. Now that he has succeeded, that success is not being reported. [...] By every objective measure, the U.S. is becoming freer and more prosperous, and liberals hate it. They are rooting for a recession in advance of the 2020 presidential election, even if ordinary Americans are harmed.

CNN, MSNBC Bury FBI Agents Getting Freebies From Reporters. CNN and MSNBC buried the inspector general report's revelation that a number of FBI agents were receiving unauthorized free handouts, such as dinners and tickets, from reporters. Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz noted in his report on the Clinton investigation, which was released Thursday, that his department found numerous instances in which FBI agents were improperly in contact with reporters and were receiving a number of free perks from their relationships.

News articles that conspicuously omit the race of the perpetrator. For additional review at your convenience.

Restatement on Fozia Ali. [Scroll down] Fozia Ali served as the centerpiece of [Jeff] Baillon's story. She stole $1.5 million from the Child Care Assistance Program over an 18-month period. The media can't quibble with the facts of the Fozia Ali case. Her guilty plea in federal court earlier this year told its own story, although the media somehow overlooked it. Reviewing the facts of Ali's case I called and wrote the Minnesota Department of Human Services to ask one question: "CCAP seems to be a program that is relatively easy to defraud. How else to account for a case like Fozia Ali's and the multiplicity of similar cases?" DHS responded: "Any amount of fraud is too much. DHS created the Office of the Inspector General in 2011 to address fraud, waste and abuse in public programs. DHS has added resources and made recommendations to the Legislature to increase our ability to ensure public funds are used for those who need them." DHS also instructed me not to attribute this nonresponse response to the person who provided it.

As Snopes 'Debunks' Child Trafficking Camp, 160 Kids as Young as 3 Rescued in Georgia. A massive sting operation carried out by the FBI in metro Atlanta captured dozens of child traffickers and rescued 160 children who had been forced into sex slavery by their captors. This news comes as Snopes and the other ostensible arbiters of truth distort information claiming that similar trafficking is taking place in Arizona. Illustrating the massive scope of the sting, called Operation Safe Summer, it was a collaborative effort between the FBI and 38 other law enforcement agencies from six metro counties.

Ignoring the Samantha Power bombshell. Of all the political stories from 2017, surely the most curious is this: why is everyone ignoring the bombshell revelations from Samantha Power? As you recall, Power was caught using her security clearance as a U.N. ambassador to review private conversations by U.S. citizens. According to official records, she requested the unmasking of these private citizens over 260 times in 2016 (this was an election year). She was brought before the House Intelligence Committee to explain her actions. Her defense? It wasn't me. Someone else in the Obama White House did this, using her security clearance. There are two possibilities: that she is telling the truth, in which case someone else in the Obama administration is lying. Or she is lying herself.

The Clintons will always have defenders in the media. As long as there are journalists in the U.S., there will be apologists for Bill Clinton. With the exception of the Obamas and the Kennedys, few in public life have enjoyed as much protection and support from the U.S. press as America's 42nd president. Yes, the Clintons have endured unflattering coverage, but usually only when it's unavoidable. It takes an FBI investigation or articles of impeachment to attract national media scrutiny. And even then, many in the American press are perfectly content to dismiss, downplay, or explain away whatever legitimately awful or terrible thing the Clintons are caught saying or doing.

Indicted Muslim Congressional IT aide had two wives, kept one "like a slave". The establishment media has steadfastly ignored this story, but it just keeps getting bigger. Imran Awan and his family had access to all the emails and files of twenty percent of the Democrats in the House of Representatives. His treatment of that data is highly suspicious. And from the looks of this story and others, he is a doctrinaire Muslim with ties to Pakistan. If Republicans and conservatives had been enabling and protecting Awan, this story would have been front-page international news for months. As it is, we are likely never to discover the full extent of what happened.

Senate Intelligence Committee under pending DOJ investigation over leaks. Brian Tau of the Wall Street Journal yesterday [6/6/2018] scooped the mainstream media, which prefers to ignore what he has uncovered about a potentially huge story: that the Department Justice is in the early stages of an investigation into illegal leaks from the Senate Intelligence Committee. [...] So far as Google is telling us, no other major news source has picked up the story.

Nothing to See Here, Just a Child-Trafficking Camp on Land Owned by a Clinton Foundation Donor. A group of veterans has made a disturbing discovery in the remote desert of Arizona, near our still wall-less southern border, that has shaken its members to the core. If you watch any videos posted by Veterans on Patrol, you will notice that they look shell-shocked, as if they just finished clearing a neighborhood in Fallujah circa 2003. Their emotions are very raw, and the situation is only compounded by the noncommittal, uncaring shrugs they've received from law enforcement after reporting their findings to them. A word of caution: This story is not for the weak of heart.

What Happened to Jill Stein's Recount Millions? Shortly after the 2016 election, Jill Stein raised more than $7 million from shell-shocked liberals eager to pursue a swing-state recount. Two years later, the U.S. Green Party's last candidate for president is still spending that money. Ongoing litigation, travel costs, and staff salaries are also likely to eat up whatever is left, meaning those who donated to Stein are unlikely to receive a once-promised chance to vote on how the post-recount money would be spent. Nor have donors been given much of a window into how Stein is actually spending their donations.

More about Jill Stein.

[Redacted] Arrested for [Redacted] Outside [Redacted]: Leeds Crown Court Issues Media Ban. The Leeds Crown Court has issued a UK media ban following the arrest of well-known activist and citizen journalist [redacted] outside [redacted]. The reporting restriction, which requires on all publications within the United Kingdom to cease any mention of the details of the arrest or court proceedings of [redacted], was issued Friday afternoon [5/25/2018].

Orwell's Nightmare: Articles About Tommy Robinson's Arrest Rapidly Scrubbed From the Internet. Articles about the arrest and subsequent imprisonment of independent journalist and activist Tommy Robinson are being rapidly scrubbed from the internet after the British government put restrictions in place banning any reporting on the matter.

48 Hours Later, Media Still Keeps Dems' Total Collapse in Reuters Poll a Secret. On Monday [5/21/2018], Reuters/Ipsos announced that the Democratic Party's strong lead on the generic ballot question, which had remained stable for most of 2018, had rapidly collapsed over the prior week. The #BlueWave narrative — the media's all-but-concluded assumption that Democrats would retake the House of Representatives from the GOP in November — has largely been based on the state of the generic ballot poll. So you might assume the media tasked with covering the 2018 midterm elections would immediately react to a sudden shift in the most important metric available for predicting the most important outcome of those elections.

Media Goes Ballistic As It Scrambles To Protect Obama From Growing Spygate Scandal. The Obama administration spied on the Trump campaign, infiltrated the campaign, colluded with foreign powers to attack the campaign, then worked to damage a newly elected president and ultimately overthrow an entire administration. Those collective actions are now known as "Spygate" and the Establishment Media is desperate to insulate Mr. Obama from being directly implicated in what is quickly turning into the single greatest political scandal in U.S. history.

Happening Now: FBI Investigating Terror in Your State. The U.S. is currently investigating some 2,000 potential or suspected terrorists.

Press hypocrisy of the day. Obama wiretapped President Donald Trump. The press does not care. Obama planted a spy in President Trump's campaign. The press does not care. But President Trump's Twitter account isn't secure. That's a five alarm fire.

The Media See Only One Collusion Story. Liberals and journalists used to be appalled at the abuses of power by J. Edgar Hoover's FBI and the CIA against Martin Luther King and others. More recently, while many liberals deplored Edward Snowden's leaks revealing how extensive U.S.-government snooping has become, they also agreed that the information he revealed showed the need for reforms. Indeed, former CBS News journalist Sharyl Atkisson has detailed how U.S. intelligence agencies have abused the privacy of Americans. She lists ten examples of such abuses and concludes that, to this day, intelligence and Justice Department officials somet
