We live in an empire of lies, propped up by the mainstream media. - Ron Paul

Excerpt: "The current Director of the Secret Service has been interviewed expressing her dedication to “diversity” in hiring agents. What if her dedication to DEI goals led to an agency that is more “diverse” but fails at its core mission? Can we rely on the media to inform us of this? Or will they, as usual, just blame it all on the Second Amendment? What if the problem with the Secret Service is that it was moved into the bloated, incompetent, and menacing Department of Homeland Security, the creation of which I strongly opposed when I was in Congress? We shouldn’t count on hearing the truth about the attempted assassination from the mainstream media. No wonder the elites remain determined to censor social media sites like Twitter/X and TikTok. We live in an empire of lies, propped up by the mainstream media. And seeking the truth in this empire of lies is the greatest challenge for us in the moral bankruptcy in which we live."

    what will happen is that people will simply decide for themselves what is true based on their own personal observations and ignore everything else.

    I am already there. Ignore everything biden and leftist pundits say, and about half of what the right wing pundits say. Its goto to make sense to me, OR I discount it.

    Well I like Mr Trump's choice for a Vice President if he proves to be as good as he looks. The good thing is if he gets iffy we can contact his darling grandmother. She will set him straight. n

    Made me smile as I've done similar. LOL, your posts are so spot on it was strange to see a "typo" or, God forbid, a Biden moment.

    When I was very young, most adults in the southern states where I was born automatically voted for the Democrat, no matter who it was, as Republicans represented the invaders in the "War of Northern Aggression." We're seeing something similar with Democrats today, partly due to the mythology that only the Democrats care about the "little people," even if the party now favors the elite and takes the "little people" votes for granted.

    The blind Democrat vote (vote blue, no matter who) is nearly 30%, with another 15% young voters spoonfed the mythology in their public school indoctrination. That means the party only has to convince less than 10% of the voting population to swing its way, and they spend billions of dollars to make that happen.

    The automatic Republican votes, from the small business and farming communities, as well as most of Wall Street, make up an amount similar to the Democrat core voters. Another 15% or so are the Boomers, who got their education from teachers who were steeped in the patriotic fervor of WW II. That means the party has a similar target of swing voters it needs to convince, and spends a lot of money in the effort.

    Donald Trump threatens to upset the Democrat apple cart, as he's widening the Republican tent enough that the usual balance and fight for a small percentage of undecided voters could change as a result. This second run has the promise of being "Reaganesque" and possibly beyond, as Trump's VP pick is strong and shares his vision.

    It all surprises me as well, Doc.

    "...the projected election would be 80% Trump to 10% Biden and 10% RFK,..." Agreed, but I am mystified how the polls and the actual voting are so close all the time. It's hard to accept the country has been running so close to 50/50 for so long.

    Yet the roof the snipers were already on was even more pitched if not the same pitch,
    She ("it" ) is well versed in BS.

    Alternate media may ultimately save the world.
    The truth is "out there".

    Since Biden took office, A has not been equal to A, and we have all suffered accordingly.

    His first comment after hearing Trump was shot floored me. He talked about violence should never be used, then immediately referred to Jan 6th, with no mention of "Summer of Love", Baltimore, or any of the true "riots".

    Yeah, reading the headlines...

    Imagine these:
    RFK Ducks... Just too late.

    RFK Driver thinks the car backfired...

    Mrs. Kennedy misses RFK while driving...

    RFK... It's a head scratcher what happened.

    Could you imagine what the left would have done?

    This explains her story that they let the sniper go because "the roof was pitched"....

    I think since the federal government was paying for the vaccine, and they are in bed with pharma, they needed arms to inject to keep producing vaccine to spend the money. So they forced our arms.

    Yeah, but my theory better explains the mandates for something approaching "a bad flu season". Also, the INTENSE level of DOSAGE differences and LOT TRACKING.

    Well, I think you have to realize that there are many circles in this hellscape. People at the top who profit. Going down to people who just want to stop the pain. We are literally "Rats in a cage".

    The ONLY way out of it comes from "War Games".... Don't Play!

    CNN's whopper of the weekend was the headline "Trump falls down at rally". Who do they think they're going to convince with such an obvious lie? It was the first thing they posted on the story, but do they think there is a large group out there that believes the first hit and run headline they see and are forever convinced afterwards?

    American politicians used to be more skilled at hiding their lies, not realizing they didn't need to expend the effort of covering up, because they didn't realize how lazy and ignorant the public had become. Joe Biden has always been a pathological liar, fabricating whatever fantasy he felt it would benefit him for the audience of the moment to believe, and his monumental list of lies is well documented, and yet he still has an eager following, willing to accept whatever preposterous tale he spins for them.

    I'm surprised Biden hasn't openly stated he believes the truth is whatever he says it is. Almost immediately after calling for everyone to "tone it down" on inflammatory political rhetoric, he proceeded with the same invective about how Trump and his supporters are a threat to democracy, which is the same type of speech that energizes would be assassins.

    If honesty, competence, and sincerity were really important to the American voter, the projected election would be 80% Trump to 10% Biden and 10% RFK, but people no longer think, blindly obeying whatever propaganda feeds their fear. Democrats have become expert at inducing fear.
