Hey corporate media: this is a factual summation of what's happening

and you are not required to normalize it or sugar coat it. It should inform your coverage. It should be the framework for your headlines and news segments.

"They're lying about Medicaid cuts. They're lying about the deficit increase. They're lying about what they accomplished in Iran. It's just a nonstop torrent of lies intended to flood the zone with propaganda." wrote Ron Filipkowski just now on bluesky.

name for crony capitalism. Which will shut out innovation and honest dealing. So unless you want to spend the rest of your lives kissing repulsive ass and handing over the payola and losing market share, you might want to make a stand.

None of this is remotely normal. The MSM won't figure it out until the Gestapo shows up and hauls them all off to a concentration camp. Or maybe just takes them down to the basement and shoots them Handmaid's Tale style.

I also don't give a shit about your take, (on a straight news show)!
Who, what, when, where, and why.
If the facts aren't available yet, say nothing beside what you know.

"Thank you for your attention to this matter"!
