Profiting from Lies by the News Media and former Obama Administration officials through book sales constitutes perjury in the court of public opinion and criminal conduct against the Constitution!


Many liberal members of the news media and former Obama administration officials who were charter members of the Stop-Trump movement and whose names are now associated with the Justice Department criminal probe of misconduct by public officials have made millions of dollars writing “expose” books about the Trump administration.


Any book published is a public record so any lies offered by the malicious authors or their media bosses should be used as evidence of perjury against such unscrupulous writers involved in the leaking of classified and protected government records.


As the DOJ criminal investigation accelerates and more and more reporters and Obama officials are caught in the spiderweb of corruption their own words published in books should lay the groundwork for perjury charges and they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law for such a grievous violation of public law and trust.


Conspiracies seem to run deep into the lifeblood of the political establishment and the co-collaborators in the news media helping to inflame the anti-Trump news media since Trump became president.


Such efforts to undo the will of the people in electing Trump must be met with aggressive prosecution to insure such a violation of public trust never happens again.
  

Stay tuned for results from the Department of Justice criminal investigation of politics, politicians and press!

The Dawning of a New America – Shining the Light on the underbelly of Corruption on the Political Establishment in our Nation’s Capital. Freedom of the Press is no cover for Criminal Conspiracy!


If the news media colluded with “Obama administration” officials on criminal activity, have they waived their right to Constitutional Protection under the First Amendment?



Can reporters, anchors and executives of CNN, MSNBC, NBC, The New York Times and Washington Post among others be co-collaborators in criminal crimes against the US Constitution?


Should they be indicted and prosecuted for criminal conduct?


Stay tuned for results from the Department of Justice criminal investigation of politics, politicians and press!

Maybe those Old White Men in the US Senate are not the enemy but the defenders of American principles and patriotism! Here is what the news media chooses to ignore in their rush to judgement!


Are old White men really incapable of knowing what is best for the people of America, all the people of America?


How about those who condemn old White men in the US Senate for lack of judgement, perhaps they should get their facts right before they start spewing reckless charges.


Okay, so their hatred may cloud their flamboyant charges, does that mean truth is obsolete to the far left?

The Resistance?
The Enemy of Resistance?

Anti-Trump forces and mischievous Democrats intent on running for president or ignoring the Constitution coined the negative phrase of the “twelve old White men” when debate and voting took place for the Supreme Court Justice nomination of Brett Cavanaugh.  The Republican members of the Senate Judiciary Committee were "twelve old White men."






They use it as if older, White, male members of the Senate are incapable of making decisions for anyone except, old White men one must presume.

Some consider it a throwback to the early days of America when white men were the only people allowed to vote.  Most people conveniently forget, however, that early America was colonial rule by European countries.


There was no America nor Americans.  All land was controlled by European nations, with European appointed governors, and whatever voting rights were the law in Europe.



Although America was discovered in 1492 by the Europeans, and colonization was underway by 1608, also by the Europeans, until the US Constitution was finally ratified in 1789 America as nation did not even existed.
The Resistance?
The Enemy of Resistance?


It is a clever ruse and used constantly by Move On and many other special interest groups within the fringe of what used to be the Democratic party.  Some consider themselves progressives, others socialists, others anarchists and all seem to be members of the resistance, which translates to anti-Trump resistance.

The Resistance?

The Enemy of Resistance?

So, what about their claim “old White men” are not qualified to decide the future of the nation?  Well this is not the first time old White men have been required to determine the future of the nation and how did they fare in the past?

I do not know about you, but it seems to me that time after time in our nation’s history “Old White men” in the Senate have stepped forward to correct serious injustices and inequalities.  People seem to be ignoring history when they condemn old White men and they seem to be contributing to the rabid polarization of society through their reckless hatred.


In spite of the media support of the resistance, those millions that support such idealism still are a very small fringe of the voting public.  As more people seek truth the number of supporters of such resistance are alienating the substantial number of men and women in America who do not believe those old White men are the enemy, but the protectors and defenders of equal rights and opportunity for all.


Sadly, a lot of very worthwhile causes for women and many other issues have been seduced by the resistance and hijacked by them.  In time they will find their own worthy causes lost in the hatred, polarity, and fantasy world of the resistance.  You see, good ideas respect all others, they do not trade in hatred and polarity.


Thanks to those old White men, and their protection of free speech, the resistance of today can now stand before the cameras and resist to their heart's content.


There are also quite a few White men, and women, along with fellow Americans of every race, who never grew to be old because they gave their lives to defend the right of others to freedom and free speech.


So, who are the many tentacles of the “resistance” movement intent on compromising our Constitution and polarizing our people, well they come in many sizes and shapes. 
     

You be the judge, not the media or the radical, left wing ideologue.


Remind people there are still Independents in America, there are still people who are in the middle of political polarization between liberals and conservatives, and there are still people who put the best interests of our cherished Republic over self-interest and self-preservation.

The News Media in America – The new advocates of Tribal Warfare – Destroyers of Truth – Disciples of Dissent – Imposter of Integrity – Abuser of Constitutional Protection!


Once upon a time the news media members of the Fourth Estate, those who claimed to be the defenders of freedom and watchdogs for the public, were signatory to the Code of Ethics for the Society of Professional Journalists.  That Code of Ethics identifies the various standards for the industry which they summarize as follows.


Journalists should:

Take responsibility for the accuracy of their work. Verify information before
releasing it. Use original sources whenever possible.

Remember that neither speed nor format excuses inaccuracy.

Provide context. Take special care not to misrepresent or oversimplify in
promoting, previewing or summarizing a story.

Gather, update and correct information throughout the life of a news story.

Be cautious when making promises, but keep the promises they make.

Identify sources clearly. The public is entitled to as much information as possible
to judge the reliability and motivations of sources.

Consider sources’ motives before promising anonymity. Reserve anonymity for
sources who may face danger, retribution or other harm, and have information
that cannot be obtained elsewhere. Explain why anonymity was granted.


Diligently seek subjects of news coverage to allow them to respond to criticism
or allegations of wrongdoing.

Avoid undercover or other surreptitious methods of gathering information
unless traditional, open methods will not yield information vital to the public.

Be vigilant and courageous about holding those with power accountable.
Give voice to the voiceless.

Support the open and civil exchange of views, even views they find repugnant.

Recognize a special obligation to serve as watchdogs over public affairs and
government. Seek to ensure that the public’s business is conducted in the
open, and that public records are open to all.

Provide access to source material when it is relevant and appropriate.

Boldly tell the story of the diversity and magnitude of the human experience.
Seek sources whose voices we seldom hear.

Avoid stereotyping. Journalists should examine the ways their values and
experiences may shape their reporting.

Label advocacy and commentary.

Never deliberately distort facts or context, including visual information.

Clearly label illustrations and re-enactments.

Never plagiarize. Always attribute.


The Society of Professional Journalists, formerly known as Sigma Delta Chi, is the oldest organization representing journalists in the United States. It was established on April 17, 1909 at DePauw University, and its charter was designed by William Meharry Glenn.


For over one hundred years this society has worked to adopt and maintain a Code of Ethics to guide all journalists in their work and to make certain every effort is made to assure fair and balanced news coverage.

Today, sadly, as is obvious when reviewing the standards inherent in the Society Code, a vast number of principles of good journalism are being violated by the news media.  It seems the day of objectivity, fair and balanced coverage, even measures to assure truth in reporting, have been cast aside by our news organizations.


From the corporate boardrooms of the news media to the college classrooms teaching our next generation of journalists there is a wholesale disregard for our Constitutional protection of the news media.  You see, no Constitutional guarantee comes without reciprocal action to accept responsibility for adhering to the standards being protected.


In truth, our Bill of Rights is really a Bill of Rights and Responsibilities in which the federal government provides protection and those protected must assume responsibility to adhere to standards and principles consistent with our way of life.  That responsibility to maintain standards has been tossed on the trash heap of forgotten promises to the people.

News reporting used to be a meticulous search for truth but today it is no more than a stampede for ratings and readers using a profit driven bias and a desire to exploit the public while serving the stockholders.  They are hypocrites through and through.


Once upon a time our news anchors represented the best in American values.  But all that died when the Walter Cronkite’s of the world passed the baton to the New World Order of journalists.

Bias is the new standard and truth is no longer a priority in reporting.  The media and the profit mongers controlling them decided ratings were dependent upon controversy, generating hatred, undermining truth and exploiting a combined campaign by multiple news sources.  The members of the far left (extreme liberals) were united against a very few defenders of the president, Fox News most notably.  Both sides were guilty of many questionable news practices to hype their cause.


One thing they really underestimated was that the public would immediately see through the falsehoods bombarding the general public through the news media.  It is the public who are the true watchdogs of the public interest for they are the only defenders of the public interest.  They also long ago recognized the impending collapse of institutions like the news media, federal government, political parties and others who have outlived their usefulness.

People no longer trust the media because the media has abandoned the search for truth.  There can be no more telling sign than the cancellation of newspaper and magazine subscriptions, the epic collapse in television ratings, and the cord cutting of the public from the broadcast and cable television networks.


Back in that time, Walter Cronkite consistently drew 27-29 million viewers every night and on occasion soared to over 50 million for special events.  He was the most trusted man in America.  Today there are far more media outlets and there were 205 million people in the US back then compared to 330 million today.  Yet, if you total the audience for all the news media today, broadcast and cable, it falls short of Walter alone.


In the not too distant past news directors decided what to report.  Today, algorithms and artificial intelligence (AI) decide what to publish and how to maximize the bias.  The news media of today works to create the news, not just report it.  It wants to convince people what to think, not to present both sides of issues and let the people make up their own minds.

The news media and social media owners became collaborators and made a calculated decision to tell people what to think, subtly of course, in the dominant issue of the day, President Donald Trump, the consummate outsider.


Why?  Because he threatened those news reporters who used government insiders to routinely get leaked confidential, proprietary and even classified information, the lifeblood of an unscrupulous media.


The Trump threat must end so they first tried to stop Trump from getting elected which failed miserably.  Then they tried to force him to resign from the presidency through scandalous events from Trump’s past which also failed miserably.  Finally, they united to get him impeached which has failed thus far.

By using a variety of highly questionable news services and mysterious anonymous sources to generate news stories, thus creating an avalanche of spurious and incendiary rumors, half-truths and fake news to stop him from getting re-elected, such was their hatred and fear of the renegade president.


That was only the beginning.  Once credible news outlets like the New York Times, Washington Post, NBC and ABC along with most cable affiliates and channels such as CNN, MSNBC, CBSN and network streaming services were part of the movement to impeach or disenfranchise the duly elected president of the people.

For those of you not familiar with the news business, there are many ways to slant coverage in a negative light like misleading headlines leading into the story or using dated or provocative videos with bad people such as Trump with Epstein though the video is over 20 years old.


They consistently load all panels of experts with Obama/Clinton lovers and Trump haters, Republicans who are outcasts from their own party, or officials fired from the Trump era.  Often times CNN and MSNBC seem more like the PR arm of the Democratic National Committee than news outlets and it seems as if a requirement to get on the air is to have worked for Obama, be fired by Trump, or pledge allegiance to the destruction of Trump.


Of course, the public knows better as noted from the collapse in ratings and readers so in the end, should Trump survive and get re-elected, the Swamp may yet get drained.  This should be a lesson to all aspiring journalists, if you want to report the news you must have solid principles and take responsibility for your actions in serving the public trust.  Seek the truth.
