Leftist media desperately bury Biden scandals and think they can get away with it
Fox News ^ | 9/01/23 | L. Brent Bozell III

The leftist "news" media – NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, The Washington Post, The New York Times – continue their conspiracy of silence on blockbuster evidence of President Joe Biden’s corruption, determined to see, hear, and report no evil about the Democratic administration.

An internal FBI document provides convincing evidence that Joe Biden – then the sitting vice president of the United States – along with his son Hunter – extorted $5 million for each of them from an executive of Ukrainian oil company Burisma.

According to terms of the $10 million bribe outlined in the document, the vice president would quash Burisma’s legal problems by threatening to withhold financial aid to Ukraine if they didn’t fire a senior prosecutor looking into their corruption.

Even when the document was released to the public on July 20, Biden’s media minders kept their audiences in the dark. No longer journalists, they’re now mere leftwing storytellers, selectively spreading a message intended to deceive when it suits them, and throwing a blanket over any truthful report when it harms the narrative. Their primary mission isn’t to inform the public or to hold the powerful accountable. It’s to ensure that Joe Biden gets reelected.

The Burisma scandal follows reports of similar bribery/pay-to-play schemes with Russia, Kazakhstan, Romania and even with America’s arch-enemy China, hiding the money in over 20 LLCs that served no purpose other than to confuse potential investigators.

Between the evening of August 1 and the morning of August 8, ABC, CBS and NBC devoted more than five hours to Donald Trump’s third indictment on morning and evening newscasts as well as their Sunday morning political talk shows, according to an analysis by NewsBusters.

In contrast, the same programs spent a mere four minutes and 50 seconds on matters related to the Biden...

Two thoughts. Would McCarthy have the votes to impeach? Biden’s crimes appear to have been as VP and the five year statute of limitations appears to have run out. Maybe that is the thinking of the Rats.

No statute of limitations on impeachment. Biden will never be criminally charged anyway. Impeachment is the only way to establish the facts, and possibly get Biden removed.

Well, they ARE getting away with it. Even if they weren’t, the public wouldn’t care. Perversion and corruption are expected from the elite and powerful. Nothing to see here, folks; move along

The media’s primary mission isn’t to inform, or to hold the powerful
accountable, as it once did, but to ensure that Joe Biden gets reelected.

"...the public wouldn't care."

College and NFL football starts this weekend. MLB is entering the run for the playoffs. The casinos are humming all across the nation. The public doesn't want to be bothered with such as the collapse of our Democracy. Just feed them sports and entertainment and you can manipulate them any way you choose.

EDITED .....Nick Shapiro, a former top aide under CIA director John Brennan, provided POLITICO with the now notorious signed letter, insistently noting, “the 51 intel leaders who signed this worked for the past four presidents, including Trump.......and indicates the number of former, working-level intel officers who want the American people to know that once again the Russians are interfering.”

<><>The sub rosa purpose of the signed letter was to boost candidate Biden.....several of the 51 signers had publicly endorsed Biden......all blithely reported by the deceitful media

<><> Aiding and abetting the scheme, The New York Times actually raised questions about the rigor of the Post’s reporting, casting doubt on the Post’s reporting of Hunter’s salacious laptop.

<><>However, the NYP stood by its astute, detailed, groundbreaking reporting.

<><>The media kept sucking-up as the wily Hunter cravenly denied that the abandoned laptop was actually his, despite incontrovertible truth to the contrary.

The widely reported bogus collusion story, financed by Hillary, was shrewdly designed to mimic 2016, when Russian hackers dumped troves of emails from Democrats onto the internet — producing few damaging revelations - but calculatedly fueling accusations of so-called “corruption” by Trump.

While back in 2020 there had been no immediate indications of Russian involvement, the general thrust advanced by the media was intended to aid and abet a “Get Trump” narrative.

The media kiss-up included reports about US intel agencies obsessively insisting there was “an active Russian disinformation effort aimed at denigrating Biden’s candidacy.”

RINO Ga Gov Kemp slapped down an initiative to hold a special legislative session to oust District Attorney Fani Willis........as proposed by the wise, heroic, right-thinking state Senator Colton Moore.

Appearing on Steve Bannon‘s War Room podcast.....the insighrful
Sen Moore noted “civil war” was inevitable unless Fani Willis was stopped.

Willis is persecuting President Trump on fake elector scheme charges.........her heinous
unstated goal being to hand Bidenite Dems a monopoly on conversations about campaign results.

The media is only too happy to comply.

That was the revelation for many of us who watched Nixon and Reagan be terrorized by the press and Democratic congresses.

All of a sudden, the press turned and became an elite fighting force on behalf of Bill Clinton in the nineties. Previously the Dems had said, “If one of ours ever engages in criminal behavior, we will be as thorough in examining him as we are Republicans.”

They lied. Ken Starr was on trial. Bill Clinton skated. Nixon resigned and went away, so they eventually left him alone. The Democrats fight in lethal ways and anything goes. Our side always says we can’t lower ourselves to some level or reacts with some other kinds of eeyorean fear.

Forget the communist media it’s a given they are Anti American.
Comer has all the evidence to convict the traitor in the White House,as of this morning on Fox,the Republican Congress under Wimp McCarthy does not have the votes to convene even a INQUIRY on the traitor in the White House!
Got that? Some republicans say they have not seen enough evidence of corruption yet!!!
So what do you think pussy McCarthy will do? If it was Pelosi she would be taking their offices away,their campaign funds and everything else!
This is freaking outrageous! But Trump! You get the point

How many liberals does it take to screw in a light bulb?

None. They prefer to remain in the dark.

They are succeeding. The public, not very clever in any event, is unaware of what’s happening. Only the New York Post and Fox News report on it. Much of the public walks around with its collective head firmly lodged in a place where the sun doesn’t shine.
