Quote:

An air-conditioning repairman was driving his truck through Houston in late October when a black SUV suddenly slammed into his tail. When he got out, the SUV’s driver leaped out and pointed a gun at his head, police said.

When police arrived, the gunman offered an incredible tale: The driver, he said, was the face of a vast election-fraud scheme and had about 750,000 fake ballots stuffed inside his truck.

That story was totally bogus, police now say. The man’s truck was full of nothing but A/C parts, and the gunman — Mark Anthony Aguirre, a former Houston Police Department captain — had been paid more than $250,000 by a right-wing organization to pursue far-fetched voter-fraud conspiracy theories.

A top Trump appointee, Paul Alexander, repeatedly urged top health officials to adopt a "herd immunity" approach to Covid-19 and allow millions of Americans to be infected by the virus, according to Politico.

"We want them infected," he said.

I was in Washington, D.C. There is no monument to Richard M. Nixon, the peacemaker. He saved the nation from domestic turmoil so bad that the only parallel I can think of is the USA in 1861.

He set the stage for winning the Cold War. He set hundreds of millions of Chinese free.

He saved Eretz Israel’s life and probably went to greater risks for the Jewish people than any world or national leader has ever done. He was a major hero of Civil Rights, but that’s another story.

Still, there are no monuments to him, and there should be.

And there are — of course — no monuments to Trump.

He was a true hero.

He warded off war with Pyongyang.

He made giant steps towards peace in and around the Mideast. He was — after Nixon — the best friend Israel has ever had.

But he stood up to the media elite and to the Deep State, and they did him in — just the way they did to Nixon. Not many of us Jews stood up for him when he needed us.

He was a real lover of the Constitution. That was not allowed in this era, when race, and not law, determine everything. I will definitely not live to see a Trump Memorial, but maybe my granddaughter will. Anyway, he is enshrined forever in my heart.

Ben Stein

I don’t know what to say? Other than it seems Stein like most Trumplicans love to create a propagandist view of their dear leader, I found this part interesting
He (Trump) was a real lover of the constitution. PS saw this at newsmax

To some degree that’s true but I don’t think there’s any comparison with what we’ve seen under Trump. He brings out the crazies like when pencil neck Peck shut down the power grid.

Deep State Pushes to Deep-Six Intelligence Report Demonstrating Chinese Interference in 2020 Election



Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe is considering not signing an intelligence report to Congress if it does not accurately reflect an ongoing debate among intelligence community career analysts over Chinese attempts to influence American voters in the 2020 election, according to a source familiar with the issue.

Just because you didnt vote for him ? Whats that mean. Are you next going to say you never defended him ? You only pushed back on the overseers and the media.
TRUMPS issues where his own , they were actually based on events that actually happened .. and its always falls back on the deep state mantra. From his impeachment to him lossing the election to Bindens laptop , which trump is pissed at Barr about for not putting it out. So it could help him Sounds like what he did with Ukraine..

But if you support the policy or the agenda you support Trump indirectly, but willingly

On restrictions and lockdowns the right crys endlessly about .

Bring that up with the administration who ingnored every warning and kept lying .. and now the 2nd wave is far worse then the 1st .. imagine if the Governors aka overseers did nothing where do you think the death count would be?

Because we know what the models show when you doing nothing ..

And thats why Trump lost doing nothing was only acceptable in his base.

Another reason I left the Repub. party.

Make no mistake. We are at war. The Democratic Party hijacked our 2020 Presidential Election and have committed treason," Chase wrote in a Facebook post late Wednesday night. "Where the hell are the Republicans? Did Dominion Voting Systems buy you out too? I hear nothing but crickets."

If legislators, courts and Congress don't "follow the Constitution," the Virginia state senator said Trump should invoke martial law to allow the military to oversee a new "free and fair federal election."

Chase's opinion puts her in the minority but she's not alone in her support of Trump using martial law to run a new election. Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, Trump's former national security adviser, endorsed the method.

White supremacists and other like-minded extremists conducted two-thirds of the terrorist plots and attacks in the United States in 2020, according to new CSIS data.

From the article which you quote (https://www.csis.org/analysis/war-co...nited-states):

Terms such as far-right and far-left terrorism do not correspond to mainstream political parties in the United States, such as the Republican and Democratic parties.

Terrorism is orchestrated by a small set of violent extremists.

Far left individuals and networks have increasingly used firearms in addition to explosives and incendiary devices in conducting attacks.

49% of the weapons used by violent far right terrorists were either firearms, or explosives, or incendiaries.

84% of the weapons used by violent far left terrorists were either firearms, or explosives, or incendiaries.

Only five fatalities occured from violent terrorism in the first 8 months of 2020 (time for which the article covers). One death from far right and one death from far left. Three were by "other."

The number of fatalities from domestic terrorism today is quite low and the possibility of civil war is negligible. The U.S. has endured more violent periods in the past.

Well we currently rank 29th and have moved up 2 places this year on the Global Terrorism Index.

The statements of the current occupant of the White House will push that further.

And he doesn't care.

He sincerely believes he's won.

He will die believing it, no matter the evidence.

The clinical term is malignant narcissism. It comprises psychopathy, manipulativeness, sadism, and paranoia (especially under stress), in addition to narcissism.

Epoch Times is one of the few growing in size alternatives to the huge left wing media including WAPO, NYT, etc., and including the vast majority of electronic media. Biased left wing (Progressive) media has been successfully, corruptly, and deceitfully influencing elections for decades, and have been more openly doing it in the last one or two decades. I'm glad Epoch Times exists. More such are needed. Just as platforms like Parler and Rumble and a few others are needed to neutralize the increasingly leftist super powerful platforms like Twitter, and Facebook. And less biased search engines are needed to become as powerful as google.

A lot of relevant, important, information has been and is being unreported, underreported, or suppressed by our overly influential "main stream media." It is the most powerful and prevalent way of creating "voter suppression."

Did someone say voter suppression

This week the ET published an editorial call to invoke the Insurrection Act to force a “military audit” of the election and “arrest those who have conspired to deprive the people of their rights through election fraud.”

How is discovering voter fraud a way to suppress the votes?

Pete F. 12-18-2020 12:07 PM

A foreign cult that thinks Donald Trump is on a messianic mission has a “news site” that has spent at least $2 million on YouTube ads since 2018, mostly in 2020.
This “news site” has called for a violent insurrection to keep Trump in power.
The group behind the ads has seemingly unlimited resources and was the second-largest pro-Trump advertiser on Facebook before such ads were banned.
They believe the stakes are a literal apocalyptic battle between good and evil.
Kind of makes you wonder just how much money this “news” organization really poured into the election in order to boost Donald Trump.

The editor who wrote the article is not part of the "foreign cult." The "foreign cult" has not proclaimed anything about using the Insurrection Act.

The "news site" did not call for a violent insurrection. The Insurrection Act is for stopping insurrections, not starting them.

The money "poured" into the election was legal. Biden got a lot more money "poured" into his campaign than Trump did.

Various left wing "news sites" believe that Trump is "evil" and that a media war against him was necessary to get rid of the bad Orange Man.

It's not a fake news site. It's an international multi-language newspaper and media company. It's a member of the New York Press Association which has given Epoch Times journalism awards. And it is not run by Falung Gong. And your myopic characterization which exaggeratedly focuses on a minor aspect of the total ET range of content is more of your biased propaganda.

According to Media Bias/Fact Check, The Epoch Times is an international, multi-language news media company in print and online. The Epoch Times first published in New York in April 2000 (in Chinese only) and the online edition in August 2000. In 2003, The Epoch Times launched an online edition in English, which began printing as a newspaper in New York in 2004. The Epoch Times is founded by John Tang and a group of Chinese-American Falun Gong practitioners. The Epoch Times publishes in 21 languages in 35 countries across five continents. Their focus topics include sections for world and national news, op-eds, sports, entertainment, business, arts and culture, travel, and health. Although it rates ET as questionable because some of its op-eds seem conspiratorial (I could say the same about CNN, and NYT), it claims.however, that The Epoch Times straight news reporting (which is what interests me) through the use of journalists and syndication through the Associated Press and Reuters . . . are well-sourced and reasonably low biased. However, when reporting on China they do reflect a strong anti-communism bias in general, but that straight news reporting is sourced and mostly low biased.

The Epoch Times chair Stephen Gregory said in 2007: "It's not a Falun Gong newspaper. Falun Gong is a question of an individual's belief. The paper's not owned by Falun Gong, it doesn't speak for Falun Gong, it doesn't represent Falun Gong. It does cover the persecution of Falun Gong in China." But the news org. staff which runs it are a spectrum of Americans which may include some that practice falung gong.

One of the quotes in Quora re ET:
"Now some say Epoch Times has ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and as I pointed out, this is not true. However, there are other news outlets that do have close ties to the CCP. News outlets that the accusers would consider trustworthy while bashing Epoch Times.

NBC News has now published at least five articles in just over a year that contain egregious factual errors about their competitor, The Epoch Times. NBC News has refused to correct many of these errors, which gives the appearance of it being intentional and agenda-driven.

I would invite anyone to read both NBC News and The Epoch Times, and compare for yourself the fairness and balance of each media organization’s reporting.

Perhaps the biggest contrast between NBC News and The Epoch Times can be found in their independence from the CCP, which has worked for years to subvert key American institutions, including media organizations.

Over the past 20 years, The Epoch Times has reported extensively on the CCP’s widespread human rights violations, its efforts to subvert the United States, and its efforts to expand its influence around the world, and have never taken a penny of CCP money.

NBC News and its parent company, NBC Universal, meanwhile, have cultivated close relationships with the CCP and affiliated entities, reaching business agreements worth billions of dollars.

On the editorial side, NBC News signed a memorandum of cooperation in 2010 with the CCP’s state media agency, Xinhua, to conduct extensive and in-depth cooperation in the collection, production, and broadcasting of TV news content and personnel training. Xinhua was officially designated by the US State Department as a Chinese “foreign mission” in February this year.

It’s sad to see that one of America’s largest media organizations has close financial ties and editorial cooperation with the world’s most repressive regime. This makes abundantly clear that NBC has no ability to report on The Epoch Times without a biased agenda."

Since 2016, the Falun Gong-backed newspaper has used aggressive Facebook tactics and right-wing misinformation to create an anti-China, pro-Trump media empire.

For years, The Epoch Times was a small, low-budget newspaper with an anti-China slant that was handed out free on New York street corners. But in 2016 and 2017, the paper made two changes that transformedk it into one of the country’s most powerful digital publishers.

Left out some details? I noted details that you and Pete and Got Stripers conveniently don't mention or are ignorant of. Details? It would take a 200 page book to mention all the relevant details, especially all of the smears and inaccuracies perpetrated against ET. Like the viciously biased slant by Pete F. And your myopic and irrelevant quote above. Starting out small is neither a crime, nor a nor a blemish. To grow to such size in such a short time is an accomplishment, not a vice. Aggressive tactics are not some kind of evil. Most successful endeavors use them. And saying something is misinformation needs to be backed up in detail. It is a malevolent aggressive tactic to claim something is misinformation without thorough proof--to do so is in itself misinformation of the most hypocritical kind.

I gave a suitably brief, given the constraints of a forum, response to Pete F's claim that ET was a fake news site. Either he knowingly lied or he was just wrong. It's as legitimate as the news sites you use. It may get some things wrong. They all do.

And I don't love misinformation--right-wing or otherwise. Saying that I do is misinformation.

Since Media bias/Fact check is a legitimate source here’s more of what they had to say re ET

“Overall, we rate The Epoch Times Right Biased and Questionable based on the publication of pseudoscience and the promotion of propaganda and conspiracy theories as well as numerous failed fact checks.“
