You know things have gotten bad for a Democrat when even the left-wing media won’t engage in their BS cover-up. It doesn’t happen often, but it does happen. And when it does it means there is a rough road ahead, though only for a while. That’s where we are right now with Joe Biden. But don’t get used to it, it never lasts long.
The news that Biden illegally stole classified government documents while Vice-President, moved them around without any concern at all for their security while sharing an office with his drug and sex-addicted son with all his sketchy foreign national business partners normally wouldn’t rate as news to the Democrat press. They know the Biden family is corrupt, there’s no other way a junkie could make millions of dollars outside of the entertainment industry. But the sheer stupidity of their attempted defense coupled with the obvious lies they are telling left-wing media outlets with little choice but to report honestly about them. It turns out even liberal hacks can have their intelligence insulted, who knew?
It got so bad for Joe that all three broadcast networks reported, rather angrily, about the obstruction of the Biden administration on this story. All three whined about how Joe campaigned on “transparency” so much that the casual viewer could’ve mistakenly thought Hunter had come out as a woman, making Joe a “transparent.” (I’ll show myself out…)
The real issue wasn’t that the Biden administration had been hiding Joe’s theft of classified government property (which is exactly what this is since the VP had no authority to declassify anything) since before the midterms, the truly amazing bit of obstruction came when the White House admitted the first batch of stolen documents and said nothing about the second and third batches, which they knew about since at least late December. They must’ve either figured “journalists” simply would never find out or they wouldn’t bother reporting it as a separate incident, but there is nothing remotely transparent about it.
You can only activate this cavalierly if there are corrupt media on your side, or at least a corrupt one that has been on your side to that point. The Biden White House has lost the media…this week. Don’t worry, the corrupt left media will be back.
How can I say that? I have a memory.
There were a few weeks in the late 90s when they were reporting honestly about what Bill Clinton did to Monica – the President of the United States and an intern, etc. After having been lied to by Clinton and his team, who I’ll never believe didn’t know the truth the whole time, DNA evidence made it impossible to continue to deny the truth – and liberals will always deny the truth until they run out of lies – then they switched to “It’s a personal issue and doesn’t matter.”
When that shift happened, previously interested reporters found their out and took it. That became the media narrative and Clinton, who’d committed multiple felonies while in office, escaped accountability. The same thing will happen to Biden.
Outrage today from the media is not over the facts of the story – that Joe Biden stole classified documents and treated them the way Hunter Biden treats laptops, crack pipes, and human-trafficked prostitutes – but that they were made to look bad professionally; that they were exposed as hacks.
If journalists were worth their weight in “dog dirt” they’d have spent the first 2 years of the Biden administration doing what most people think journalists do (what they do in movies): cultivating sources to get the information those in power want to keep hidden. But that’s not what journalism is anymore. Now it’s reprinting press releases or “reporting” whatever someone you know wants out there against Republicans.
This scandal is the first story not involving external, undeniable events (like the disgrace of the evacuation of Afghanistan) where the reporting makes Biden look bad. Enjoy it while you can, it will not last.
Joe Biden will face no consequences for what would land him in prison any more than you could land any of the kinds of no-show jobs that made him and his family filthy rich. It’s different when a Democrat politician does it, normal people don’t have anything to sell that the enemies of this country want to buy. There was a time such a reality would be of interest to journalists, that reporting and breaking a story on it would bring about awards, fame, and riches to whoever did. Hell, they’d even make a movie about you. But that time is gone…at least until another Republican is occupying the White House.
