Perhaps in some ways the media is in on it.

I was watching the news on the coverage After this Latest Hearing. And all the media was talking about was a clip from Nancy Pelosi where she wanted to punch Donald Trump in the face🤷🏾‍♀️

I have yet to find anyone in the media that actually discussed the really big huge moment

When Pat Sips Alone

Screw the pooch when he answered the question ""who in the WHITE HOUSE did not want the (TERRORIST) to leave the CAPITOL‽

He thought the question was "who ON THE STAFF did not want the (terrorists) to leave the capitol?

Before he answered the question Liz Chaney corrected him and said "in the White House"

He responded "no one absolutely no one wanted them to stay in the Capitol"

And then he tried to say "oh I was talking about the staff". Adam shift, and Liz Chaney made sure he understood that he answered the question about EVERYONE in the White House including the former PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES.

Pat Sips Alone, just got really quiet and he realized he couldn't correct his answer without implicating Donald Trump.

This entire exchange starts, if you watch on C-span when the clock is at 2:55 Senator Raskin is the one speaking before the clip is played. (You can find it with that information)

So don't take my word for it. Go find it and see for yourself. 👌🏾

And yet for some reason the media chose to focus on Nancy polosi threatening to punch Donald Trump in the face🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

How's that for absolutely useless media?

EDITED
here's a video
Also SPLEECHLESS IS NOW A WORD🤣🤣🤣

Isn't it strange that, that clip hasn't been highlighted all over the media.💭💭💭

to me that's a much bigger moment than Nancy Pelosi threatening to punch Donald Trump in the face, I mean who doesn't want to do that lol

1. No "perhaps" about it.

13. FYI I added a video, Of the moment during January 6th hearing I was referring to

2. Always creating a false close election, for the Ad money is obvious.

Cable is against us. IMO.

[Heather MC]

4. The weird thing is when you do a search of Pat Sips alone on YouTube

At least when I search his name in the correct spelling of course.

The only videos that pop up in the search are from 3 months ago.

There's not even a mention of his clip being shown October 13th 2022 on YouTube.

Think of all the political news outlets on YouTube and nobody is talking about that clip?

I'm very surprised

5. We were better off before cable, before the Internet, when

Walter Cronkite told us the news. Not 150 different tv personalities telling us their opinion of the news. I miss those days, people weren't so divided.

[Heather MC]

6. We were better off when media was independent and not all owned by about 6 people

Corporations are the problem. They've decided that they can control us with everything that we see and hear. And keep us distracted while they completely destroyed the planet for profit

7. +1

8. A large majority of adults don't watch the news

If you total up the viewers CBS, NBC, ABC, PBS news along with Fox News, MSNBC, and CNN, you come up with about 25 % of the adult population.

10. True however, Not even anyone from YouTube

has highlighted this exchange fir the hearings.

I posted a video of what I was referring to in my original post

17. Ok. Thank You!

20. That was interesting! Thanks again for adding it to your Op!

21. It was as if his brain exploded when he realized what he had done

And then he tried to fall back on well "executive privilege"🤣🤣🤣 And that was his excuse for not clearing up his mistake.

Isn't it strange that that clip hasn't been highlighted all over the media to me that's a much bigger moment than Nancy Pelosi threatening to punch Donald Trump in the face

9. They absolutely are.

Corporate presentation of news is just one element.

The prevalence of shows like Honey BooBoo, the Kardassians, and other mind-numbing garbage also contributes to the increasing stupidity.

[Heather MC]

11. Facts, They're for entertainment purposes only and they do nothing to actually nourish and feed

Our minds which is a muscle we need to be exercising daily
With intelligent images and entertainment like George Carlin
Or John Oliver on last week tonight
Or intelligent comedy like the daily show
Or Stephen Colbert

People who are just on television to make a spectacle of themselves, they offer absolutely nothing in return for our time energy and effort.

I say all that to say, I don't watch reality TV lol it's all just stupidly scriptedly🤦🏾‍♀️🤣

12. They sure are dumming down the qualifications of political candidates ....

especially republicans because their candidates are dumb and dumber and quite violent.

Republicans are dumming down the J6 hearings as well through of course their representatives via corporate media.

If you have not seen a movie called " Idiocracy" please tune in. It's the Republican's future.

Also there is a scene in a movie I think it was "A Guide for a Married Man" where a husband is making out with his mistress in his home bedroom. His wife unexpectedly comes home early and catching them. He gets up while the mistress leaves going pass the wife with her clothes, the husband makes up the bed all the while telling his wife their nothing going on, it's just her imagination. At the end the wife looks totally confused.

Recent movie "Don't Look Up".

The above tells a lot of the state of the Republican voter.

Don't look up is a perfect example of what's wrong with our society.

I keep thinking about that scripture where they said "the people took no notice, and the flood came and swept them all away"

We keep reliving our own self destruction and we wonder why societies and civilizations seem to get destroyed around every 200 years.

And America is 244 years old we're a little past our expiration date so of course the hubris is much higher.

We don't decide to get our heads out of darkness, And focus on actual solutions that don't include billionaires.
Or the media

Just the community helping each other out.
And maybe if we decided to stop participating as consumers in their consumer driven markets.
Example does anyone really need a new iPhone? 🤷🏾‍♀️
I'm still trying to figure out why stores are filled with a bunch of fake pumpkins when there are so many beautiful real ones you can buy for Halloween. And after Halloween is all over all the natural decorations will just safely return to the Earth without causing problems to the environment.

But all the plastic they keep sticking into our society is literally destroying it and yet they keep making more plastic that we don't need.

23. They are also *dumbing* them down.
