REPORT: DC Insiders ‘Celebrating’ As America Declines.

A who’s who of some of the most powerful people in media dined alongside Democrat politicians on Wednesday night to “celebrate” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. The rationale for which they were celebrating Jean-Pierre, also present, is unclear. The group included at least two major corporate media network heads: Rashida Jones, president of MSNBC and Kim Godwin, president of ABC.

Also in attendance were NBC’s chief Washington correspondent Andrea Mitchell, Hakim Jeffries chief of staff Tasia Jackson, far-Left MSNBC host Joy Reid, Biden White House deputy chief of staff Jen O’Malley Dillon, CNN political correspondent Kasie Hunt, CBS News producer Shawna Thomas, CBS’s Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan, Obama advisor Stephanie Cutter, radical LGBTQ Human Rights Campaign president Kelley Robinson, and Chanelle Hardy who serves as the Head of Civil Rights at Google.

With public trust in the media near a record low, the dinner’s guest list certainly further fuels concerns about partisanship in corporate media. While senior White House staff and major media figures might rub elbows at galas and events like the White House Correspondents Dinner, having so many present at an intimate – yet nondescript – dinner for a White House press secretary is more unusual.

The attendance of Chanelle Hardy, who serves in senior management at tech-and-internet-giant Google, at a dinner with at least two senior White House staffers raises ethical concerns as well. Google is being sued by President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice for violating U.S. anti-trust laws.

POLITICO Runs Holocaust Revisionist Op-Ed to ‘Contextualize’ Canadian Nazi Debacle.

An attempt by the corporate news outlet POLITICO to add ‘context’ to an incident where the Canadian parliament honored Yaroslav Hunka, a Ukrainian World War II veteran who served in a Nazi Waffen SS unit, is drawing accusations of white-washing war crimes and Holocaust revisionism.

Keir Giles, a British writer and research director with the Conflict Studies Research Centre, believes that because Hunka’s invitation to the Canadian Parliament was a score for a Russian “propaganda,” history needs to be revisited to soften the genocidal work of the Waffen SS.

Giles laments the lack of “nuance” in the media regarding the Hunka scandal, worrying it legitimizes Russian accusations that Ukraine collaborates with modern Nazi movements. He argues Hunka was likely placed in the Waffen SS for administrative rather than ideological reasons and insinuates the infamous Nazi military unit’s “primary task” was not in fact to commit genocide.

POLITICO has drawn sharp criticism for Giles’s portrayal of the Nazi Waffen SS. In a post on X (formerly Twitter) journalist Mark Ames blasted the corporate media outlet: “Politico now running straight-up Holocaust revisionism & Waffen SS whitewashing, even slandering Simon Wiesenthal…”.

Giles sarcastically responded to accusations he downplayed the Waffen SS’s role in the Holocaust in an effort to defend Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, posting on X (formerly Twitter): “Spot on. I [checks notes] accept genocide in order to protect my fellow progressive leftists like Trudeau.”

2nd GOP Debate Moderator Is Foreign, Far-Left Lunatic, Obama Fangirl.

The second Republican presidential primary debate on September 27th will be co-moderated by Univsions’s Ilia Calderón – a rabid political partisan who has said that former President Donald Trump’s racist rhetoric “empowers white supremacists.” The Spanish language network Univision is partnered with the Fox Business Network to host the debate – Stuart Varney and Dana Perino will join Calderón, who is from Columbia, as moderators.

Calderón – who Fox Business bills as “the first Afro-Latina to anchor an evening newscast for a major broadcast network in the United States” – has a long history of flaunting her far-left bias on social media. In 2018, as then President Trump pushed for tighter border controls to stop the flow of illegal immigrants into the U.S., Calderón claimed on X (formerly Twitter) that “Trump does not want whites to stop being the majority,” adding that this was the reason for his opposition to mass immigration.

The Univision anchor isn’t just critical of Trump and Republicans, she has plenty of praise for Democrat politicians. In 2009 Calderón praised Barack Obama, saying, “…it is a pleasure to listen to a great speaker!” In another instance of pro-Democrat bias, she reposted a claim that the U.S.’s political and economic struggles were the fault of Republicans for obstructing then President Obama’s radical political agenda.

In the aftermath of January 6, 2021, Calderón claimed that Republicans were “silent about those responsible” and insinuated that the protestors who stormed the U.S. Capitol Building committed a “deadly attack.” The only person to die as a direct result of the events on January 6 was protestor Ashli Babbitt who was shot and killed by U.S. Capitol Police officer Michael Byrd.

Former President Trump is expected to skip the September 27th Republican presidential primary debate. Polling after the first debate in Milwaukee, Wisconsin suggests that Trump’s absence had no negative impact on his commanding lead over the rest of the Republican candidates.

TUCKER: Media Ignored Gay Obama Smoking Crack in 2008.

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson revealed in a recent interview that, “In 2008 it became really clear that Barack Obama had been having sex with men and smoking crack. And a guy came forward, Larry Sinclair, and said ‘I’ll sign an affidavit’ – and he did – ‘I’ll take a lie detector’ – and he did, [saying] ‘I smoked crack with Barack Obama and had sex with him.'”

Tucker explained the corporate media refused to report the story, adding: “Not because they were squeamish about sex or drugs, but because the Obama campaign said, ‘Anyone who reports on this gets no access to the Obama campaign.'”

Carlson blasted the corporate press’s bias, “…the media is reporting on government, but it’s also dependent on government.”

He added that the quid-pro-quo style trade-offs he witnessed between the corporate press and the 2008 Obama presidential campaign “…happens all of the time with lots of different issues… You think you’re holding government accountable but actually they’re controlling you.”

The National Pulse has previously reported on Obama’s biographer David Garrow obtaining a letter the 44th President had written to a former girlfriend detailing fantasies about having sex with other men. Garrow later released the letter to the public, the relevant passage from Obama reading:

“In regard to homosexuality, I must say that I believe this is an attempt to remove oneself from the present, a refusal perhaps to perpetuate the endless farce of earthly life. You see, I make love to men daily, but in the imagination.”

– Barack Hussein Obama, 1982.

The former Democrat President goes on to describe his mind as “…androgynous to a great extent and I hope to make it more so until I can think in terms of people, not women as opposed to men.”

In July, Malik Obama, the former President’s half-brother, posted on X (formerly Twitter) that Barack Obama was “definitely gay.”
