The late, great Michael Kelly, a brave journalist who was on to the corruption of the Clintons about 20 years before it began to sink in for the less-biased Democrats , would write, even before Linda Tripp blew the whistle on Monica, “Where is the outrage?” It is time, past time, way past time, for the few honest journalists we have now, elected officials and patriotic Americans who are really concerned about the future of democracy, to call out our news media, shame and condemn them, and refuse to be silenced or back down. If Democrats succeed in winning the midterms and foiling the crucial policies of the Trump administration, including the undoing of the illegal Biden era policy of open borders and a commitment to the rule of law, it will be for two primary reasons: a corrupt mainstream media, and Trump Derangement deliberately fueled by that corrupt media.
This took place on CNN: The DOJ is investigating Tim Walz and Jacob Frey for obstructing federal immigration operations, because they are. CNN’s panel, led by the incompetent and openly biased Abby Phillips, was, naturally, hell bent on portraying these just desserts as examples of Republicans being fascists because that’s their assignment from the Axis of Unethical Conduct. All, that is, except for CNN’s house contrarian, Scott Jennings…
JENNINGS: “And, look, based on their public statements, it’s pretty clear that…and based on the statements of officials at DOJ, it’s pretty clear there is concern that these two guys have used their positions and their public statements to try to obstruct the execution of federal laws.Now, whether that rises to a crime, I don’t know.”
PHILLIP: “Can you give me an example?”
JENNINGS: “Well, I mean, I think they’ve both made numerous public statements that have made it perfectly clear that they do not want federal laws to be enforced in Minnesota, and that they flatly said they don’t want ICE there enforcing federal immigration laws. They both said that.”
PHILLIP: “That’s not what they said.”
JENNINGS: “They have literally both said ICE leave Minnesota. In fact, Tim Walz said, we’re on the third day of Gettysburg at one point.”
PHILLIP: “He did not say that either. Okay, sorry, but he didn’t say that.”
Jennings was completely accurate, and Phillips was lying. How could Frey’s “Get the fuck out?” be interpreted as anything but expressing the belief that Federal officers should not enforce immigration laws in Minnesota. As for Walz’s incendiary Civil War reference, that is a matter of record as well.
Did anyone on the panel dispute the host’s gaslighting? Of course not. Did CNN issue a correction? Nah. Let us be clear: these are the villains. Others in the news media should be condemning such episodes. Your Trump Deranged Facebook friends should be condemning it too, and that they won’t proves that the barn doors of their consciences were left ajar and their integrity escaped.

They’ll say “Trump incited an insurrection on January 6th and got away with it!” Then they’ll throw in a “George Floyd was murdered!”
