ESPN LIES AGAIN: CLAIMS SOMEONE PUT NOOSE IN BUBBA WALLACE’S STALL
For background, Wallace said he found a noose in his garage during the summer of 2020. Immediately following his claim, networks like ESPN declared NASCAR and white people racist. But as much as ESPN wanted you to think Bubba Wallace was a victim of a hate crime, he wasn’t. The FBI quickly found that no one had put a noose in Wallace’s. Instead, the rope was, well, a rope to help open the garage door that had been there for a long period of time.
ESPN even admitted it wasn’t a noose in June 2020, in a report headlined, “FBI says rope had been in Talladega garage since October; Bubba Wallace not victim of hate crime.”
So ESPN lied, hoping its viewers had forgotten about the story’s outcome.
The truth is, ESPN has been lying about stories to frame black people as victims of white people for over a year. Here are just a few incidents:
— Jalen Rose announced on NBA Countdown in November that the police shot and killed an innocent Jacob Blake. Jacob Blake is not dead and he wasn’t innocent. The police shot Blake after a woman whom Blake had sexually assaulted called the police on him. Once police arrived, Blake had a knife in his possession, refused to drop it, and then police shot him.
— In April, ESPN’s Mark Jones interrupted a live NBA game to say the police shot Blake while unarmed right after Blake admitted he had a knife: “Yeah, I had my knife.”
— Three weeks later, Adrian Wojnarowski spread this same lie about Blake in a column that ESPN edited, posted, and promoted on its home page.
— Mark Jones tweeted that police are more likely to murder black people than protect them.
— Richard Jefferson said Kyle Rittenhouse crossed state lines with his AR-15.
Not to mention, the daily segments that claim that the NFL holds back black people while 80% of its players are black. ESPN has refused to comment on each of these matters.

FACEBOOK ADMITS ITS FACT CHECKERS ARE JUST OPINION TASTE MAKERS
In an interesting twist, Facebook admitted in court documents that its “fact checks” are opinion assertions, according to observers who have poured over documents filed in a defamation lawsuit brought against the company by journalist John Stossel.“Stossel’s claims focus on the fact-check articles written by Climate Feedback, not the labels affixed through the Facebook platform. The labels themselves are neither false nor defamatory; to the contrary, they constitute protected opinion,” Facebook’s lawyers argue.
Stossel wrote an op-ed this week in the New York Post where he addresses this whole labels on posts thing.
“I asked all Science Feedback’s reviewers about their ‘Misleading’ label. Two agreed to on-camera interviews. When I asked what was misleading about my video, they surprised me by saying that they hadn’t even watched my video! They offered no defense for posting words in quotation marks that I’d never said,” Stossel writes.
“I notified Facebook. No luck.”
“Facebook’s refusal to acknowledge its mistake hurts me because when Facebook fact-checks something, its algorithm makes sure fewer people see that video.”
After a second video uploaded by Stossel, this one on the climate “crisis,” was hit with a misleading label, the journalist went back and asked the reviewers what was wrong with his post.
The reviewers allegedly told him that they didn’t like his “tone.”
Now Stossel is suing.
“This case presents a simple question: do Facebook and its vendors defame a user who posts factually accurate content, when they publicly announce that the content failed a ‘fact-check’ and is ‘partly false,’ and by attributing to the user a false claim that he never made?” Stossel’s complaint reads. “The answer, of course, is yes.”
In an earlier case involving Facebook labels, Candace Owens went after USA Today and a Facebook fact-check vendor over a “hoax alert” label, but a Delaware court ruled she couldn’t show that false statements were made against her with malice.

NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC AUTHOR CLAIMS IN BOOK KYLE RITTENHOUSE KILLED TWO 'BLACK MEN' AND THIS LIE GOT PUBLISHED
The media lied a LOT about Kyle Rittenhouse. Like, A LOT a lot. If you aren't familiar with how terrible corporate media is, you would be led to believe the worst about Kyle. Our own Dave Landau will attest to that. The biggest lie is that the two people Kyle acted in self-defense against were black. It might have to do with the lie that Kyle was a white supremacist. It's remarkable how many low-information liberals actually think this. So many, that the lie got published in a book.The book is called "The Good Kings" by National Geographic author Kara Cooney. The number and levels of editing fails necessary for this to go to print should be marveled at.
"... consider Kyle Rittenhouse, who used his semiautomatic weapon to kill two Black men in Kenosha, Wisconsin, while waging a glorious war on behalf of his inherited White power."

Stacey Abrams Guest Stars as President of United Earth on ‘Star Trek: Discovery’
Since losing her run for the governor of Georgia — a race she has never publicly conceded — Abrams has kept busy courting Hollywood in an apparent effort to keep her name and face in the public eye. She teamed up with Amazon Studios for the voter suppression documentary All In: The Fight for Democracy.
She is also partnering with NBCUniversal International Studio’s Working Title Television to turn her novel While Justice Sleeps into a TV series, with Abrams serving as executive producer.
Abrams signed with the far-left Hollywood agency UTA shortly after losing the Georgia gubernatorial race.

Remember in 2020 when you'd be labeled "fake news" or outright kicked off social media if you mentioned Biden's laptop and all the criminal activity it discussed? Remember how it discussed illegal "pay for play" with China Joe? Remember how it discussed all manners of illegal activity? Remember how had videos of Hunter abusing underage chinese girls? Remember how that was all covered up as "Russian disinformation"? Now that the animated corpse is in the white house, the Liberal Media finally admits it was real all along. Left Wing #1 rag New York Times *finally* confirms it is true, admitting collusion between the Liberal Media, Biden campaign and big tech.
First, the New York Times decides more than a year later that Hunter Biden’s business woes are worthy of a story. Then, deep in the piece, in passing, it notes that Hunter’s laptop is legitimate.
“People familiar with the investigation said prosecutors had examined emails between Mr. Biden, Mr. Archer and others about Burisma and other foreign business activity,” the Times writes. “Those emails were obtained by The New York Times from a cache of files that appears to have come from a laptop abandoned by Mr. Biden in a Delaware repair shop. The email and others in the cache were authenticated by people familiar with them and with the investigation.”
Authenticated!!! You don’t say. You mean, when a newspaper actually does reporting on a topic and doesn’t just try to whitewash coverage for Joe Biden, it discovers it’s actually true?
But wait, it doesn’t end there. In October 2020, the Times cast doubt that there was a meeting between Joe Biden and an official from Burisma, the Ukrainian gas company for which Hunter was a board member. “A Biden campaign spokesman said Mr. Biden’s official schedules did not show a meeting between the two men,” the Times wrote, acting as a perfect stenographer.
Yet in the latest report, published Wednesday night, the Times said the meeting likely did happen. Biden had attended the dinner in question. Funny how this works when you don’t just take someone’s word for it.
In the heat of the presidential race of 2020, the Times never missed a chance to cast doubt on the laptop, saying the information was “purported” and quoting a letter from former Democratic officials who claimed — with no evidence — that it was Russian disinformation. As recently as September 2021, the Times called the laptop “unsubstantiated” in a news story.
Why was it unsubstantiated? Because of willful ignorance and the Times’ curious lack of curiosity. Hunter’s business partner Tony Bobulinski came forward immediately after The Post’s reports and confirmed that the emails bearing his name were legitimate. The Bidens didn’t even deny it was true! They just deflected, with the media’s help, saying it was a dirty trick or not a story. Mostly, the press just ignored it.
Now we’re 16 months away from the 2020 election, Joe Biden’s safely in the White House, and the Times finally decides to report on the news rather than carry the Biden campaign’s water. And they find that hey, Hunter Biden’s business interests benefited from Joe Biden’s political status to a suspicious degree. Perhaps this is a topic worthy of examination.
A crack pipe dangles from Hunter Biden’s mouth in this image from the infamous laptop.
How did the Times “authenticate” the laptop? It doesn’t say. Unlike The Post’s reporting, which detailed exactly how we got the files and where they came from, the Times does a hand wave to anonymous sources. No facts have changed since fall 2020. They knew the laptop was real from the start. They just didn’t want to say so.
There’s never any shame with these 180s. Sorry that we wrote a “fact check” that turned out to be bull! Sorry we wrote a piece claiming something wasn’t a story and you were stupid for thinking so!
Twitter banned us for supposedly publishing “hacked materials” that weren’t hacked. The company’s CEO apologized, but by that point, they had accomplished what they wanted. Like the Times, they cast enough doubt to avoid making their preferred candidate look bad.
Readers of the Times have discovered in March 2022 that Hunter Biden pursued business deals in Europe and Asia, and may have leveraged his father’s position as vice president to do it. Hunter also may not have properly registered with the government or declared all his income. All legitimate topics of discussion about a presidential candidate’s family, no?
Now that Joe Biden’s president, the New York Times finally admits: Hunter’s laptop is real
Forgive the profanity, but you have got to be s–tting us.First, the New York Times decides more than a year later that Hunter Biden’s business woes are worthy of a story. Then, deep in the piece, in passing, it notes that Hunter’s laptop is legitimate.

#ISTANDWITHUKRAINE AND MASS FORMATION PSYCHOSIS
If you’ve been on social media lately, you’ve noticed it’s now trendy to change your avatar to the Ukrainian flag. Maybe you have already made the change yourself.If you have, you know it doesn’t really mean anything.
#IStandWithUkraine is the new #MaskUp and #BLM. It is so ubiquitous that those who haven’t participated in the trend are more noticeable than those who have.
“Why haven’t you pledged fealty to Ukraine and Zelensky? Are you working for the Kremlin?” the NPCs on social media wonder aghast.
But of course, nothing could be further from the truth. People who don’t express undying loyalty to Ukraine don’t automatically side with Putin and Russia. They just don’t want to virtue signal and exploit a war for their own social status.
---
Earlier this week, Elon Musk described this phenomenon in a meme. Memes, by the way, are a very effective means of making a point because they make the point quickly, often in very few words.
Critics called Musk’s post insensitive to the victims of Ukraine, but it wasn’t. Musk wasn’t even speaking about Ukraine at all. He was making an observation about western society in general, especially on social media. Most online users will indeed support whatever the socially acceptable position is on any political issue, and Musk had the courage to call them out for it.
What Musk and the creator of the meme have realized is that trendsetters — in politics, media, business and entertainment — have the power to normalize any position simply by posting about it online. Such positions range from the reasonable, such as supporting Ukraine, to the unjust, such as vaccine mandates for all. The normalization process involves manipulating language and harnessing people’s emotions in order to get them to promote the desired narrative.
Posting this here and not the Muskrat thread obviously. I still have my issues with Elon, but he's been right on some issues in recent years.

Hunter and Joe Biden Scandal Takes a Dark Turn — FBI’s Top Lawyer on Child Porn Involved in Case
One image included in the New York Post photos was the FBI’s subpoena for the laptop.
Bleeding through the top page was the FBI Special Agent’s signature: Joshua Wilson. As Western Journal describes it, Joshua Wilson works a specific kind of crime: child porn.

You either didn't hear about this, or your sources all waived it off as "Russian Disinformation". Not even the best link, but here you go:
Trump sues Hillary, her indicted lawyer, Jake Sullivan, James Comey, Christopher Steele and the DNC for 'crippling' his 2016 race by 'weaving a false narrative he was colluding with Russia'
- Trump's lawyers lodged a 108-page lawsuit in Florida court on Thursday
- It seeks punitive damages from Hillary Clinton and her allies over 2016 campaign
- He accuses them of conspiring to spread a 'false narrative' about ties to Russia
- The suit names former British spy Christopher Steele, Biden's National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, ex FBI chief James Comey among others
- It says 'even the events of Watergate pale in comparison' to their plot

Biden called for regime change in Russia. Check the results in DuckDuckGo (which very few know about or use) opposed to Google the majority of sheeple use without question.

Memba how dems told us Murdoch was the Hitler-Darth Vader of the rightwing?
Reporting on the fundraiser, CBS News’ Dan Collins, exclaimed that “Rupert Murdoch Loves Hillary Clinton.”
But it does not stop there.
FAIR, a liberal media group, even bragged about how much Fox News (through its parent company News Corp.) was donating to Hillary Clinton during her 2016 campaign against Trump. FAIR wrote:
“All of the broadcast giants are on board. Clinton is the largest individual recipient of campaign donations from Comcast (NBC News, MSNBC), Time Warner (CNN), News Corp (Fox News), CBS Television and Walt Disney (ABC News).”
No longer viewed as a stalwart of conservative causes, the Murdochs, including Fox News, have been moving to the left for years coinciding with the Democratic Party’s cementing itself as the party of the global elite.
The Murdochs and News Corp. have been big donors to the Clinton Foundation, an organization that includes progressive activists George Soros, Haim Saban and many other left-wing billionaires. They have given literally millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation.
Worrisome to conservatives should be New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd’s assertion that after Rupert Murdoch passes, his son James, a strong liberal who has opposed Trump, will join with his left-leaning two sisters in controlling the family’s vast media empire, including Fox.
Fox News’ Murdochs Backed Clinton Foundation, Hillary Clinton
Federal election records show that Murdoch has donated to far-left Democratic politicians including John Kerry, Ted Kennedy, Chuck Schumer, Anthony Weiner and even Hillary Clinton, for whom he hosted a fundraiser in 2006, just preceding her first presidential campaign.Reporting on the fundraiser, CBS News’ Dan Collins, exclaimed that “Rupert Murdoch Loves Hillary Clinton.”

HISTORY PROVES MIKE FLORIO IS A FAKE KAEPERNICK SUPPORTER
There was a time when Mike Florio was not the most prominent supporter and defender of Colin Kaepernick. Florio didn’t always have a Kaepernick Fat-Head nailed to a wall inside ProFootballTalk HQ.At one point, Florio was Kaepernick’s biggest critic.
Wednesday, Florio responded in glee to the news that the Las Vegas Raiders would try out Kaepernick. Here’s his tweet:
“Colin Kaepernick, with time to knock off the rust and prepare, would be better than any option the Seahawks, Panthers, and Texans currently have. He’d be better than any QB (sorry TuAnon) that the Dolphins currently have. He’d possibly win the job in Atlanta, too.”
Kaepernick must have greatly dazzled Florio during his stint in the NFL for him to believe that, after not playing a down since 2016, he could come in and outperform starting QBs like Davis Mills and Tua Tagovailoa.
Except, Kaepernick didn’t impress Florio as a QB. A guy called Ben Jammin on Twitter reminds us that Kaepernick’s poor play has long disgusted Florio:
Brian Moorman, rough.
So obviously only one thing can be true: Florio thinks Kaepernick’s phony activism has fixed his inability to throw an accurate football and read defenses. Right?
May I suggest Nathan Peterman put his preferred pronouns in his bio next? Using Florio’s logic, it’s Peterman’s only chance to revive his career.
Now back to reality.
Florio’s fandom for Kaepernick is a form of virtue signaling. He knows Kaepernick can’t play football at a high level. Kaepernick knows this as well. The last time Kaepernick played in the NFL, the 49ers benched him for Blaine Gabbert.
The lack of interest in Kaepernick has always been simple: his play on the field would not outweigh the negative distraction that he’d bring to a franchise.
If he were a better QB, teams would overlook his antics. Likewise, teams would have kept him around as a backup and possible starter had he not supported communism in Cuba and protested July 4.
In any business, your upside must outweigh your downside. If it does not, and Kaepernick’s does not, you are not worth employing.
Florio knows this. But he also knows that advocating for Kaepernick’s abilities is best for his social status in the sports media industry.
So if that requires pretending to believe Kaepernick is a starting-level QB in the NFL, Florio will do it.
