Yep, this is why I HATE the MSM.
Here is a screenshot of the mainstream media with the text "6 HOSTAGES KILLED IN GAZA" from yesterday:

I'm interested to see where this heads. I'm certain that the MSM has already filed this next to the "blue dress", so it will have to go viral online before they say anything. Doubtless no reporters are in San Francisco, checking city records or interviewing witnesses right now...hope I'm wrong.

This has been community-noted to death on X, I think it's BS.

Another win over MSM, IMHO

Wait a sec...

Some rando on social media fabricates a news story. People are fooled by it, and re-blog it without any sort of fact-checking. And you consider this a win?

I am, and I say this sincerely, very confused right now.



Anyway, here are some photos of the Mazdaspeed Miata not ignoring or trying to cover up the story about how Linda Sun, a former staffer to New York Governors Kathy Hochul (D) and Andrew Cuomo (D), is literally a member of the Chinese Communist Party who acted as a spy for China while in office and used her position to advance agendas beneficial to the Chinese government, and yet somehow went undetected despite owning two mansions worth a combined $6 million dollars as well as other flashy lifestyle items, all on a government workers' salary:







Speaking of non-MSM sources, and the covering up of information harmful to democrats, it should be noted that, as of this writing, neither the name "Linda Sun" nor the words "China" or "Chinese" appear anywhere on the Wikipedia pages for Kathy Hochul or Andrew Cuomo.

"... transfer of millions of dollars in “kickbacks” from the PRC, which the couple used to purchase expensive properties and luxury cars ... "


This sounds very careless, and pretty sloppy for career criminals. I wonder how many others are doing similar things, but playing a bit more conservatively and not getting caught.

Clearly this as a huge problem.

Not only was the rando story fact-checked quickly, the news made it out to millions of people the same day. The MSM would spread the lies to everyone and then publish the retraction to a viewership of 10.

I believe that the significant portion of this list was left. I also believe that the very most deadly portion of the list--the helicopters and planes--were "decommissioned" with a few hand grenades in the cockpit. I was watching the Taliban parade and noticed that the only helicopters there were Russian made.

That said, they now have night vision, body armor, armored trucks, and all sorts of munitions that they never had before. They're a much more potent fighting force, and their position has been solidified, thanks to how we exited the country.

It doesn't matter, I'm afraid.

There are too many in this country who believe that neo-Marxism is the solution (to whatever the problem which they perceive is), and they think nothing of stealing elections, because "the end justifies the means."

Good news! The climate crisis is over. We didn't do it. Phew! Now someone can go tell Greta, and we can dismantle this great big global money-grab currently happening in every developed nation. Right? Right???!!!!!
