Blue-Anon – MSNBC
- It can be tough keeping the conspiracies in line when the narrative keeps shifting.
Jen Psaki appears to be attempting to establish herself at MSNBC by incorporating the broadcast stylings of Rachel Maddow and delivering wildly inane conspiracies about the Republicans.
Jenny looks over the fact that some Muslim communities have risen in vocal opposition to school boards injecting trans-activism into schools, and her assessment is that the Republicans are using Muslims to divide the nation. You know, the same Muslims these same hysterics were saying the GOP wants to destroy because they are afflicted with Islamophobia.
This also means Muslims cannot think for themselves and are easily manipulated. Best of all, Psaki discredits herself further by her declaration that these Muslims comprise only 2% of the population. This means when you whittle things down to those of voting age, even if the GOP successfully converted every single Muslim voter, the effect of this dastardly plot would barely move the needle in an election.
We're noticing the reemergence of an old ploy straight from the GOP playbook, only this time the party has a new target...@jrpsaki breaks it down. pic.twitter.com/wZ55u20476

Race to the Bottom – NATIONAL PUBLIC RADIO
Last week's landmark SCOTUS decision that rescinded the use of Affirmative Action (AA) in university admissions has drawn out no shortage of racist reactions in the press. The entirety of this case – and the controversies of AA over the years – has centered around how a program meant to aid minorities ultimately impacts a minority group negatively when strict enforcement is called for by activists.
Since Asian American students qualify for college at a rate exceeding their population percentages (the guiding rule of AA), it meant that by accepting students to universities on a census number basis, fewer Asian students would be accepted, and more blacks and whites would have to be admitted. For this reason, Asian Americans have been the focus of media criticism this past week, and NPR is the latest to join in the bashing.
Mirroring the hysteria of Jen Psaki, NPR is claiming that the SCOTUS repeal was not a result of years of court action from Asian Americans, it is a case of Republicans plotting to use Asians in a bid to eliminate AA in order to benefit – well, Asian Americans.
This entire piece by NPR is an example of prejudice and pure unadulterated disrespect. To argue that Asians don't have agency for themselves in this regard, and don't understand when they are being ill-treated, is insulting. @audiosandhttps://t.co/yI4BXx6xQN

Reporting on the Mirror – MSNBC
- Joy only manages to confirm what we have all suspected.
With such a racially-charged topic as the Affirmative Action ruling, you just knew that Joy Reid would have to jump into the fray. The only thing is – unsurprisingly, Ms. Reid did not think this one through.
In a TikTok video, the MSNBC hostess explained that the only reason she got into Harvard was due to Affirmative Action. It is not at all surprising to learn this about the woman who has demonstrated a resistance to open-minded clear thinking.

News Avoidance Syndrome – CNN
- Well, OF COURSE, Pete was discussing the SCOTUS ruling – why else would you have the transportation secretary on the air?!
Another SCOTUS ruling that has the press bent out of shape was the case of the Colorado Christian business owner fighting her state's law about mandated services in violation of religious freedoms. We see just how bothered they are when CNN brought on Pete Buttigieg.
Secretary Pete was not there to discuss the recent train trestle derailment that polluted a river or go over particulars of the United Airlines pilot strife tying Atlanta International Airport into a knot on the 4th of July holiday weekend. No, the Transportation Secretary was on to go over the particulars of a wedding website designer and gay couples, as well as a Ron DeSantis campaign video that had, as Pete describes, "oiled-up shirtless bodybuilders."
"Who are you trying to help? Who are you trying to make better off?"

DNC PR Firm – NEWSWEEK
You get to take your pick as to why you would halt reading this article from Newsweek: "Ron DeSantis is the worst candidate…ever seen."
Is it because:
- It quotes Jeff Timmer, Senior advisor to The Lincoln Project.
- Timmer makes this claim after he had run the campaign of John Kasich into the side of a mountain.
- Or best, the description of the Lincoln Project as "A Republican PAC." Timmer, it needs to be noted, is such a devout Republican that he is part of a group that backed Joe Biden.
