What? Trumphuk scammed the MAGAs with lies and deceit—shocking!
My wife has observed: when Trump says something good will happen from his actions, he’s lying. When he says something bad will happen, he’s telling the truth!
It’s simple it’s called FEAR OF RETRIBUTION FROM TRUMP. Trump is good at selling fear and his followers, the Maga militia are good at delivering the messages of fear. So the media is not going to ask any protruding, embarrassing questions of Trump because they’ve been told by the people at the top the “owners” better known today as the “Oligarchs” not to say a discouraging word.
The media is owned by the very oligarchs who put Trump in office. So don't expect employees of mainstream media to ask probing questions or report truth. Everyone in this country is being held hostage by trump and the MAGAts.
Well, I guess it’s now left to We The People because our elected officials are failing us miserably. Here’s what I do not understand during the campaign the Democrats were yelling about project 2025 and for us to read it but somehow they forgot to read it because they sure weren’t ready nor prepared for what started on day one?
Nope. Literally most of the media around the country was bought up over the last few decades and controlled by the right-wing Sinclair Group, other media conglomerates, and Murdock's right-wing media empires, along with a few major publications owned by other oligarchs who would rather pre-capitulate to protect their other businesses than allow unfettered investigative reporting. Biden was not in the media business.
Most people who have a lot of wealth, power and prestige are quaking in their boots. Apparently, Trump has the power to diminish all those goodies and complicate their lives. I suppose their terror is justified, yet ironically, they gave him that power, and they never really had to. I know because I am aware of many who never caved into him and his cult. The irony is a little funny except that millions of vulnerable people who really have a lot to lose will suffer. Some already are.
That you should ask such a naive question. Media and government have formed a coalition of abdication where all they do is indulge their various lies and corruptions.
I don't expect mainstream media to blare about the Trump transgressions...they are too busy reporting on the wonderful EOs Trump has written, and the other topic du jour, Elon taking over the government. Radio silence about Tulsi Gabbard's confirmation and swearing-in. Sheesh, guess we need to go back to sleep.
Tune in to independent media. Write your Representative that Trump should be impeached for his obvious violations of the Constitution and that he and Musk don't have permission to access our personal information without a warrant.
Because the Dems were too naive to stay strong with Biden the same way the Maga stay strong with Trump, the Democratic Party lost. Now they WON'T even use the Republican delay-block everything strategy that McConnell used during Biden's Presidency to help the millions of voters who sent them money and voted for Kamala. They are just going to keep their high paying jobs while they watch millions of Americans suffer in poverty as Trump changes our economy into an oligarchs cash machine.
Their was reporting that many D Senators/Congress are complaining about the volume of feedback they are getting from groups like Move-On & Indivisible about them not doing enough to pushback on all the craziness going on. Sheesh, are they serious? Start using all the right trigger words that resonate with reality and stop being so academic.
When I look back at our last election it almost seems like the Dems were complicit in helping the Maga to win. In my opinion, because the Dem leaders shut out all the young Dems from moving into leadership roles it alienated a huge amount of young voters. David Hogg's leaders of the future & AOC. Pelosi shut out one of the strongest fighters we have. I respect Pelosi but I don't understand her not bringing up the young Dems & Progressives.
I switched party affiliation after being a Democrat my entire life. The discarding of Biden as a bridge too far for me. We should have supported this man! The Republicans have shown how they support a racist, lying, convicted felon. We need to take several pages from their playbook.
I am now an Independent hoping we can get good people to run for offices in the local and state elections. We need to start somewhere.
The corporate media is mostly owned by conservatives. They aren't about to stand up to Trump. That's why I haven't watched any broadcast or cable news since the election. The media has totally let the American people down. I get my news from other, far more reputable sources, mostly real journalism sites.
“The richest man in the world, Elon Musk, is stealing money from you to put in his pocket” has to be the easiest political argument ever www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...
All Americans should join in Class Action suit for the irreparable harm anticipated from Muskolini downloading sensitive personal information of millions of Americans – including our bank accounts, health records, and Social Security numbers. They're also reportedly using AI to decide what critical public services and programs to cut, opening up our personal information to enormous cybersecurity vulnerabilities.
(R)egressives want to add another $4.5 trillion in tax cuts, mostly for the very wealthiest and corporations, plus add another $4 trillion to the debt limit.. while they are illegally invading and gutting our govt. institutions in the name of reducing government spending and waste. How does an entire country fall for this con job, as the economy begins to crumble and citizens lose benefits and jobs left and right?
The media are surprised to learn that inflation continues even under a change of administrations, therefore, "both sides do it". This oversimplifies the complexities of the government-economy interface and assumes the president has a magic wand labeled "inflation fighter".
Trump has no intention of doing anything unless it puts excessive profits into his and his MAGA billionaire co-Natzis

Because like most conversations that go no where, the media is always asking the wrong questions.
They never asked him the question, what is a tariff?
He has no idea and they are asleep at the wheel.
Again you missed the point. Please do not assume you know what I’m focused on you do not. I am not a one issue voter.
There are a multitude of issues to be focused on. Mine do not start with tariffs or trans but democracy.
You seem to be the one wanting to tell everyone what to do. It’s a Trumpian move. Check yourself.
I understand. And do not disagree.
My very best to you. It’s tough to feel so helpless.
We all do.
If you are talking to me, you misread what I’m saying. No one calls him out on anything. They get too caught up in his serpentine speak.
And I don’t need to call you names.
Maybe because Corporate media is owned…🤔 why bite the hand that feeds them?
Exactly!!!!
Perhaps they were ordered not to bite that hand.

Yep and before Trump media was owned by Biden..
Nope. Literally most of the media around the country was bought up over the last few decades and controlled by the right-wing Sinclair Group, other media conglomerates, and Murdock's right-wing media empires, along with a few major publications owned by other oligarchs who would rather pre-capitulate to protect their other businesses than allow unfettered investigative reporting.

Who do you think USAID was paying? The media.
Can't help but think of all that USAID food rotting warehouses as people starve in Sudan and Gaza, and places i don't know about. Can nothing be done?

Trump said what he had to say to get votes. now that he is president he doesn't need the voters.

Because of FEAR! Because they profit from his actions and get sued if they refuse him!
