Meidas Touch calls out staged Trump event featuring "Black New Yorker" - who worked for George Santos

Hint: Addison Smith works for Newsmax. He is pretending that he didn't know who Vish Burra is. Sure, dude.

Even FOX admitted the event was staged.

@MeidasTouch
That's Vish Burra, George Santos's ex-director of operations and a MAGA operative who worked closely with Steve Bannon and Matt Gaetz. Like everything Trump does, this is just another scam.

@VishBurra
I’m literally a working class BIPOC American born and raised in New York City I’m exactly the demographic this event was intended to reach.

Stop being racist!

Hey, you do know Fox reported this event was staged by the Trump campaign. Probably why the guy you interviewed is wearing Trump Merch and used to be an aide to George Santos

Thank god you fascists are so fucking stupid

With so much going on in the world, I don’t know how many folks have seen this. But, it’s absolutely wild. Started with AMLO insulting Ecuador, Ecuador PNGing the Mexican ambassador. And then this. Don’t like the trend of not respecting embassies, potentially dangerous for us.

Trump's Backers Are Determined Not to Blow It This Time Around

Link: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/03/opinion/leonard-leo-heritage-trump-2025.html

No paywall: https://archive.is/BpPsA

Quote:

This activity, Skocpol continued, amounts to a “full prep for an authoritarian takeover, buttressed by the control Trump and Trumpists now have over the G.O.P. and its apparatuses.”


There is NO WAY that there isn't going to be violence in this country if this happens. NO WAY. Because it is completely unacceptable.

Some comments on Reddit:

The US Army needs to drive a tank through the Federalist Society, the Alliance Defending Freedom, and the Heritage Foundation. They’re all in full-on rebellion against the lawfully elected government of America here and working together to overthrow our country.


I think driving a tank through these organizations is really the best option at this point .

BEGGING LIKE A DOG

Peter Navarro, after serving just 15 days in prison, is begging Justice Gorsuch to let him out.


Claude Parker
@ClaudeP65994331
Let Peter remain in jail for his entire term. We need to see more of Donald Trump associates spend time in jail, so that they can understand what it means to active like civilized people. Too many corrupt politicians are walking free with no accountability for their actions.

"There's been something wrong with MSNBC"

I Smoked The RNC
@BlackKnight10k

Im sure you're all noticing that there's been something wrong with MSNBC.

• the poor framing of stories
• weird right-wing hires
• Trump monologues w/no fact check
• softball Matt Gaetz interviews
• false equivalencies of Biden/Trump
• hyping pro Trump polls
• ignoring pro Biden votes
• ignoring Bidens' economic wins
• ignoring Biden's legislative wins
• blaming Democrats for GOP disfunction

There had long been a slide into failing it's audience but I think the real inflection point, and I can't believe im about to say bring back Chuck Todd, was the hire of Kristen Welker to host MTP with her first show being an hour long pre-recorded Trump rehabilitation propaganda piece. It's been downhill ever since.

I don't know what deal was cut behind the scenes or if some kind of executive decision was made, but whatever your perceptions of MSNCB, it's not a left leaning outlet.

And that's fine. It's a business. They get to make those decisions. But they don't get to make decisions like hiring Ronna McDaniel of all people with her track record of being a liar, fraud, and Trump enabler, while hiding behind a veil of left leaning journalism. It's disrespectful to the audience.

And with the right wing turn of CNN, the NYT actually becoming the Pitchbot, and the failures of local news, there's no such thing as a left leaning mainstream media outlet. The idea that that exists is now dead.

At the end of the day, it's not about whether your outlet is left leaning or right leaning or partisan or apolitical. It's about whether your outlet is pro democracy or not. And sitting the fence on the end of democracy is as good as enabling it.

So, in the same way we can't look to the courts, or the DOJ, or Jack Smith to save us in November, we can't look to mainstream media either. Exhausting as it is, it's on us to save ourselves yet again.
