Time Magazine Pays the Price for Lost Credibility
Posted By: Imright, 8/24/2024 4:10:47 PM
Last week in this space the focus was on Time magazine’s glorification of now Democrat presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris. The point was that the then-current cover of Time - an illustration of Harris that, as noted, presented her as “a cross somewhere between Miss America and a religious icon” - was in reality an illustration of just how the “mainstream media” was thoroughly in the tank for Democrats and the Left in general, and, this election year, Harris in particular. A week later, the New York Post is headlining another story about Time - a story that might be seen as reporting on the consequences for Time for tilting

Former CNN host Chris Cuomo might be no longer employed by one of the country’s premier liberal propagandists, but he’s proving one thing:
He can’t handle the truth.
And conservative commentator Bill O’Reilly speaking the truth about Vice President Kamala Harris was a case in point.
In a clash after the close of Thursday’s Democratic convention — a clash that turned bitterly personal at points — O’Reilly and Cuomo, now with NewsNation, hammered at each other over the Democratic nominee’s wafer-thin keynote address, which O’Reilly graded a “C.”
PALM BEACH, Florida — Former President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively that when he was shot in Butler, Pennsylvania, in mid-July he knew instantly it was a bullet that had hit him.
“A lot of times, and I was thinking about this, it would seem like a surreal moment—like you don’t realize almost where you are,” Trump said when asked to describe what went through his mind in that moment. “I never felt that. I knew immediately I got hit by a bullet.”
Trump’s comments came during a lengthy exclusive interview at Mar-a-Lago a couple weeks ago, where he sat for an hour with Breitbart News after a press conference
Vice President Kamala Harris has frequently cited her upbringing and family as she crisscrosses the nation in an effort to rally support for her newly-formed presidential campaign, including touting her father in a rare mention at the DNC.
"My early memories of our parents together are very joyful ones. A home filled with laughter and music: Aretha, Coltrane and Miles. At the park, my mother would say, ‘Stay close.’ But my father would say, as he smiled, ‘Run, Kamala, run. Don’t be afraid. Don’t let anything stop you.’ From my earliest years, he taught me to be fearless," Harris said during her acceptance speech
In the five weeks since Kamala Harris took over President Joe Biden’s struggling presidential campaign, she’s notably avoided any substantive interactions with the press — no sit down interviews, no long press conferences. Two weeks ago, she suggested her media blackout might end before Labor Day.
“I want us to get an interview scheduled before the end of the month,” Harris promised reporters at an extremely brief (70 seconds) Q & A with reporters in Michigan back on August 8.
Yet looking at the record of the past 20 years, Harris has absolutely no reason to avoid a press corps overwhelmingly dominated by liberals. Democratic presidential nominees have never had a problem
Vice President Kamala Harris was put in charge of addressing the 'root causes' of migration that lead to people from Central America to flee to the U.S.
But after three-and-a-half years as President Joe Biden's 'border czar,' Republicans say that Harris has not done her job to quell the surging migration crisis at the southern border – and that policies have heightened the issue.
Sen. J.D. Vance says that the 'root cause' of the current crisis is Harris' failure to do her job.
Since Biden took office in 2021, Customs and Border Protection has encountered more than 8 million migrants along the southern border.
There are not enough Merchant Marines for the U.S. Navy to fully man 17 vessels, reportedly causing officials to plan to take them out of regular operation.
The Merchant Marines organization, made up of civilian mariners managed by a combination of federal government and the private sector, has lost too much manpower to “properly crew and operate ships across the fleet,” Fox News reported. “The problem, of course, is the ships are at sea, away from home port 12 months of the year,” Rear Admiral (Ret.) Mark Montgomery, senior director of the Center on Cyber and Technology Innovation for the Foundation for Defense of Democracy, said.
In a moment that will be etched into the annals of American history, President Donald Trump took the stage in Glendale, Arizona, and introduced none other than Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to a roaring crowd of thousands.
The atmosphere was electric as Trump and Kennedy, two titans of American politics from vastly different backgrounds, stood shoulder to shoulder in what can only be described as a hair-raising, monumental alliance.
Kennedy then endorsed President Trump and his promise to tackle the most important issues facing the country today: the assault by the left on free speech, the chronic health crisis today in America, and ending the war in Ukraine.
CIA officials helped Lee Harvey Oswald assassinate John F. Kennedy, an expert said when asked to predict the secrets of still-classified documents.
Trump vowed to share the secret files at an Arizona rally on Friday where JFK's nephew Robert F. Kennedy Jr. solidified his defection from the Democratic party and endorsed the former president.
For years many have questioned the official narrative of what happened on November 22, 1963 in Dallas - specifically the Warren Commission's finding that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone.
Last week, the parents of 150 students from Stoughton Public Schools, a school district outside of Boston, were informed that a lack of funding and a shortage of buses and drivers have left them without school bus service.
According to the Boston Herald, the news comes at the same time that the state has started paying for the buses of students of more than 200 migrant families.
A letter sent to parents from Superintendent of Schools Joseph Baeta read, “Finalizing the bus routes and the list of students riding the bus is one of the signs the start of the school year is near.”
Podcaster and comedian Theo Von is earning widespread praise for a recent interview he conducted with GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump at his Bedminster, New Jersey, golf club. While the two touched on a range of issues from healthcare policy and the border to the opioid epidemic and the effects of lobbying, it was the podcaster’s humble nature and genuine interest in Trump’s life that made the interview stand out among listeners.

Here are some highlights from the interview.
Fight! Fight! Fight!

Moments after a bullet shot through his ear, Mr. Trump raised his fist, his face streaked with blood, and charged the stunned crowd, “Fight! Fight! Fight!” Before anyone had triaged how serious his wounds were or concluded the attack was over, Trump wanted to leave his followers with that.
There’s a crisis of leadership in churches because of the expectation forced on pastors that they not fight, that they be doormats; some expect them to be effeminate. After all, two requirements for an elder—including pastors—in 1 Timothy 3:3 are that they not be “strikers” or “contentious.” The first word literally means a “brawler,” prone to fist-fights, the hot-head with
A left-wing publication published a hit piece on Vice President Kamala Harris after she officially secured the 2024 Democratic presidential nominee without a single primary vote. Author Nancy Rommelmann criticized Democrats for their “COVID amnesia,” President Joe Biden claimed Harris accomplished an excellent task of reopening the nation. However, the left-leaning outlet is refusing to let the Democratic Party off the hook for this one.
Rommelmann pointed out that schools were forced to remain closed in Democrat-run cities while Republican governors began opening back up their states. She cited the destruction that these cities are still facing the repercussions thanks to the Biden Administration’s policies.

Eight Massachusetts communities are now considered high risk for West Nile virus, officials announced Friday.
This elevated risk level applies to Boston in Suffolk County and Abington, Brockton, East Bridgewater, Marion, Mattapoisett, Rochester, and Whitman in Plymouth County, according to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health.

Europe is experiencing a crisis evidenced by a “wave of populism” that threatens European universality, Pope Francis warned Saturday.
In a message to participants in the European Alpbach Forum, an Austrian nonprofit foundation advocating a strong and democratic Europe, the pontiff said that Europe is “experiencing a time of crisis,” a time “in which various populist movements are enjoying great popularity.”
In Europe, “as a result of this ‘wave’ of populism, some ideals have vanished and some principles, with regard to behavior towards the weaker members of society, have been sidelined,” he added.

While Robert F. Kennedy Jr's family has been attacking him over his political beliefs for at least the last year, their behavior since he announced his support of the Trump/Vance presidential ticket has been shameful, to say the least. RFK Jr's wife, actress Cheryl Hines, is standing by her husband even though she doesn't agree with him politically and even though she undoubtedly will pay a heavy professional price for her loyalty and love. It's no secret that her "Curb Your Enthusiasm" co-star Larry David has one of the more severe cases of Trump Derangement Syndrome in Hollywood, and her other colleagues are right there with him.
Hezbollah launched hundreds of rockets and drones against Israel on Sunday in retaliation for the assassination of a senior commander in Beirut last month.
The Lebanon based militant group launched over 320 Katyusha rockets towards Israel and hit 11 military targets, according to the group.
Israeli intelligence had been aware of the impending attack, causing Israeli jets to start an airstrike campaign across southern Lebanon as an act of self-defense before Hezbollah could strike first.
After engineer and data scientist Kim Brooks worked on cleaning the voter rolls in Georgia for a year, she realized she was on a stationary bicycle. She’d clear a name for various reasons, dead, felon, stolen ID, living at a seasonal campground for twenty years, duplicate, moved out of state, 200 years old, etc., and back it would come within a month. At that juncture she realized that a program within the Georgia voter registration database was methodically adding back fake names.

Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi spoke with PBS this past week at the Democratic National Convention about her goal to flip the House back to Democrat control in this year’s elections to stop Donald Trump and help Kamala Harris become president next year.The 84-year-old Pelosi’s choice of words to describe herself in the interview is going viral: “We’re very discreet reptilian, cold blooded.”
In the interview, Pelosi echoed comments by Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) earlier this year about the importance of controlling the House on January 6, 2025 to stop Donald Trump from becoming president again when the Electoral College votes are counted by Congress

A year into Barack Obama’s presidency, Sarah Palin, a former Alaska governor and John McCain’s 2008 running mate, mockingly asked a Tea Party gathering a question: “How’s that hopey, changey stuff working out?”
The roomful of conservatives howled with laughter because by then, Obama’s dreamy campaign motto of “Hope and Change” had been replaced by hard policy lurches to the far left.
The Palin question is a piece of history 2024 voters should keep in mind as they assess Kamala Harris.
The parallels between then and now are striking.
Like Obama, the Democrats’ current nominee has been maddeningly elusive about what she would do as president.
Fear and Trembling in the Deep State

On Friday, we faced yet another black swan event. We’ve had an attempted Trump assassination, the surprise coup against President Biden, and now Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s, defection and joining up with Donald Trump. Before getting into this and a discussion of the DNC convention in Chicago, I want to expose the partisan perfidy of NPR’s Judy Woodruff and the ease with which she and the press are manipulated by the deep state. During the convention, Judy Woodruff reported (using the most authoritative voice and concerned visage she could muster) that Donald Trump had a telephone conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,

Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, may be the current world-class champ of presidential-family shady dealings, but not for long.
If Kamala Harris wins the White House, her brother-in-law, Tony West, who is married to her sister Maya, is poised to claim the crooked crown.
Like Hunter, West learned his craft in the Obama years.
Then head of the Justice Department’s Civil Division, he invented a new form of what 19th-early 20th centuries Tammany boss George Washington Plunkett famously called “Honest Graft.”
It was simple.
Until 1977, Congress had to approve any settlement of a civil suit against the Federal government over $100,000.
