Fox Liberal Chris Wallace Declares Unmasking of Political Opponents "Routine," Attacks Kayleigh McEnany Saying "I Have Never Seen a Press Secretary Act Like That;"
Democrat Pundit Jonah Goldberg Calls McEnany a "Twitter Troll"

As someone asked, when did Jonah Goldberg become a werewolf? Does he think tat the facial hair hides the weight gain?

Um: Dude, people naturally "see through" facial hair to get an estimate of jowl and neck size. If you want to camouflage your massive weight gain, stick to your little-sampled podcast.

And why his face so red? Healthy men do not get beet-red faces from merely sitting down and squeezing into last year's pants.

His blood pressure looks like it's Cat 5.

Chris Wallace reflexes attacks anyone who criticizes the press. He's been doing this for a long, long time. He's got a tribe and he wants to be a fat, old warrior for it.

But the press' main mission is not reportage and has not been for a long, long time. Its main mission is critique. Criticizing. Attacking.

There is not a single industry in America the press doesn't attack routinely.

And yet, whenever anyone dares to critique the industry that spends all fucking day critiquing everyone else, they begin shrieking that Critique Is Dangerous And You're Putting Lives At Risk.

If Trump were to claim that criticizing his coronavirus response was dangerous becuase it undermined confidence in the government's recommendations, the press would, of course (and rightly), object that this is a transparent and foul attempt to stigmatize fair criticism and commentary by claiming that criticism and commentary are dangerous and, by implication, anti-American.

But the press itself makes this argument itself every single time it is criticized.

"When you attack the press, you're giving license to third-world tyrants to kill journlists!"

"When you attack the press, you're creating a Climate of Hate against American journalists!"

"When you attack the press, you are Destroying America by attacking the Common Shared Narrative (created by the press, of course) that binds us together."

And:

"It is just disgusting that Kayleigh McEnany would tell the press to do its job. This is unnacceptable. This is unamerican."

I'd like to ask Chris Wallace a few questions, if a citizen is still allowed to ask his Media Masters questions:

1. Why is the press the only institution in America which cannot be challenged or critiqued?

2. If critiquing institutions is dangerous and it undermines their credibility, why does the press critique critical institutions like the government, the military, etc.

3. Why is the press the one industry in America that is not helped by sunlight and criticism but threatened by it? If criticizing the press puts the lives of "journalists" in danger, does the press' nonstop attacks on the Trump Administration not likewise put Trump Administration officials' lives in danger?

Did you not think of that, or are you just sort of... intrigued by that possible outcome?

And:

4. The only people who seem to be permited to criticize the press are the press' own minions, like Brian Stelter. This is like saying that only Baghdad Bob may criticize Saddam Hussein.

If the press refuses to criticize and correct itself, then they've deputized the rest of us to do that job for them.

Oh, I forgot to ask a question. So here's the question:

Go fuck yourself and die sobbing, Chris Wallace.

Wow. On Fox News Sunday, Jonah Goldberg bashes Kayleigh McEnany's work as press secretary as "indefensible and grotesque," like a "Twitter troll" in cable-news combat. pic.twitter.com/p4O0H4Ljit

25 1. Why is the press the only institution in America which cannot be challenged or critiqued?
Because we speak truth to power, prole. We're smarted than you, purer than you, better than you in every way. You have no right to rise above your raising to the degree that you would even ask that question.

2. If critiquing institutions is dangerous and it undermines their credibility, why does the press critique critical institutions like the government, the military, etc.
We only criticize institutions when they act counter the American public interest, which we alone define. Our criticism is patriotic. Yours is the result of a hayseed rube with delusions of intelligence.

3. Why is the press the one industry in America that is not helped by sunlight and criticism but threatened?
This is the same as question 1, and the answer is the same.

4. The only people who seem to be permited to criticize the press are the press' own minions, like Brian Stelter. This is like saying that only Baghdad Bob may criticize Saddam Hussein.
Only a deplorabe rube on the internet would dare to compare the freedom-loving and patriotic institution of the American press to lying propagandists.

80 It is a long standing peeve of mine that when I react to the aggression part of people being passive aggressive, somehow I'm the one out of line.

Oh, I'm sorry that I won't play your ballless game of tee hee I'm attacking you but not really. See, the game i'm playing is the one you actually are where you are attacking me and thus I will respond to defend myself.

Also those people have been alive long enough to remember Tony Snow.

Speaking of W, I will repeat what everyone else has been screaming at the top of their lungs for years - W's utter refusal to defend himself led directly to Trump. My entire adult life the Dems have been allowed to hurl the most vicious accusations against anyone not a Dem and any time anyone tried to push back at even one-tenth the level of vitriol "that's not who we are, we must be better".

Well, no, actually. Refusing to defend yourself means that you do not think you and your beliefs are worth defending.

I mean, if you do not support whatever Dem belief is being discussed, then you want people to die is the default position of the Dems and the media (BIRM). At a certain point, people will punch back.

Also, I have a question for Mrs. Goldberg - if your husband will not defend his own beliefs from false and vicious accusations, what the hell makes you think he will defend you and your character?

81 I won't bother watching the linked panel video because all I see are four hack losers who discredit themselves every frikkin' day. If Jonah Goldberg complains about Kayleigh McEnany's appearances, all that tells me is that McEnany is over the target, and it's a big, fat, squishy target.

82 Having spent a little time with Chris Wallace, you can ask him lots of questions but I can tell you you won't be impressed with any of the answers. He's a DC cocktail party guy, that's all. Fox would earn my viewership again if the network were to give his show to Maria Bartiromo, a woman who is smarter than the impotent Wallace, asks tougher questions and books better guests.

I still remember how he was fired - some extremely sensitive personal phone converstions between Trump and another world leader were leaked to the WaPo and NYT, Trump and Pompeo (iirc) were furious and said that they were going to find the leaker, and no matter WHO it was, he was going to be fired on the spot.

Interestingly, that incident was never mentioned again by anyone. But by a great coincidence, McMasters was fired from his job 2 days later.

What has he actually ever done? He wrote a few books on politics and current events, but they are all of limited value and written long ago anyway. Recently, all I recall hearing he's done is whine on TV. He's a sad excuse for an American male.

Actually, third-world tyrants kill journalists all the time. And that's why American journalists are hard at work making sure China knows whose side they're on.

Also, in no other "profession" outside of prostitutes, are practitioners with years of experience routinely replaced by 25-year olds.

When was the last time the media called the duly elected President of the United States of America an "agent of Russia" for 3+ years, without evidence, in an attempt to interfere with the peaceful transfer of power and thwart the will of the electorate?

The best part of that panel was his terror at the response. You could see it in his eyes, in his body language. When the officer on the panel said that given the response, he wouldn't put his men in peril to save Wallace, Wallace wilted. He was - momentarily - broken by that response. By the insinuation that actions have consequences.

200 McEnany is a reasonable response to the press' constant prevarication. The alternative - no more press conferences - is a bad solution (and Trump also tried that for a while). Without press conferences, he isn't being "transparent" (despite being the most open administration in history - the absence of formal pressers for a while not withstanding, what with the constant interviews and press openness outside of Marine 1 and continuous other events).

The press turned these into theater. To channel Natalie Merchant, "give 'em what they want." They wanted theater. They're getting theater. Good and hard.

To be frank, I personally have lost all interest in the process of discrediting and attacking individual mainstream-media journalists. Since they're ALL by default some combination of biased, corrupt, stupid or communist, I see little point in plucking this or that one from the daily lineup of media buffoons for his daily humiliation.

Yes, yes, I know that we should "out-Alinsky the Alinskyites" by "personalizing the target." I understand that. Saying "This individual media member said this stupid thing" is more "effective" than merely saying, "Ah, the entire media are a bunch of left-wing cretins -- damn the lot of 'em!"

However, the things we do as political strategy (personalizing flawed individuals on the opposing side as graspable representatives of their whole wrongheaded worldview) aren't necessarily the things we find entertaining. Maybe I did at first, but after a while, it's almost like a daily task one must do.

25 years? Forget it. Try *five* years.

Less than five years ago, in the late summer of 2015, they published the article "The Coddling of the American Mind" about the problems related to so-called "safe spaces" and various speech-suppression programs in American universities and the hugely negative consequences that were awaiting us as a result.

Last month, they ran "Internet Speech Will Never Go Back to Normal" wherein they said:
In the debate over freedom versus control of the global network, China was largely correct, and the U.S. was wrong.

You don't need 25 years. Five years will show it in full flower. The Atlantic was always a bit lefty but they did some real investigative and in-depth work, even as recently as five years ago.

254 Confession booth:

To be frank, I personally have lost all interest in the process of discrediting and attacking individual mainstream-media journalists. Since they're ALL by default some combination of biased, corrupt, stupid or communist, I see little point in plucking this or that one from the daily lineup of media buffoons for his daily humiliation.

Yes, yes, I know that we should "out-Alinsky the Alinskyites" by "personalizing the target." I understand that. Saying "This individual media member said this stupid thing" is more "effective" than merely saying, "Ah, the entire media are a bunch of left-wing cretins -- damn the lot of 'em!"

However, the things we do as political strategy (personalizing flawed individuals on the opposing side as graspable representatives of their whole wrongheaded worldview) aren't necessarily the things we find entertaining. Maybe I did at first, but after a while, it's almost like a daily task one must do.

I would much prefer this move into the "who is funding them" phase.

Truly, someone must have financial records being kept somewhere, naming the benefactors keeping these bleating sores on the air. Keeping the slimy newspapers in business.

Who is the money behind them? How much is coming from China? From Iran? From Saudi Princes? From Soros?

259 I think the old paradigm that the Press favors left Democrats has not been operative for decades. The institutional Press IS the left. Democrats are its elected arm in government, and it has permanent elements in government bureaucracy which do its bidding. Anderson Cooper wields much more political power than some freshman Democrat Congressman from a competitive district, and has much more sway over the positions that the Democratic party takes on issues of the day - and which issues the Democratic party decides to talk about - than any dozen Democrat Congressman. The Press isn't biased, it's not corrupt - it IS the opposing political party naturally acting in its own interests and for the favor of its constituent members. Demanding that the opposing political apparatus act against its interests out of some phony commitment to fairness or public service is a fool's errand.

I just argue their malfeasance was just better hidden from public view. They played Gotcha 101 with Dana Perino and then as soon as it was Gibbs or whoever it was all "just how shiny is Obama's knob?".

And if I'm not mistaken, the "press" was integral in obtaining the illegal warrants to spy on Trump. Fake story gets printed, fake story gets used as "evidence" there's a story, warrant granted. That self-appointed air of respectability served way more of a nefarious purpose than a few twitter takedowns. The media was/is complicit in the treason by Obama and Co.

So no, IMO we don't just stop doing the things because muh norms. Expose them.

You realize claymores aren't traps like that. They're command detonated. This works in your example, though, because your tap-dancing won't set Jonah off... he'll release his biochemical brew when he feels like it.

313 I think the old paradigm that the Press favors left Democrats has not been operative for decades. The institutional Press IS the left. Democrats are its elected arm in government, and it has permanent elements in government bureaucracy which do its bidding. Anderson Cooper wields much more political power than some freshman Democrat Congressman from a competitive district, and has much more sway over the positions that the Democratic party takes on issues of the day - and which issues the Democratic party decides to talk about - than any dozen Democrat Congressman. The Press isn't biased, it's not corrupt - it IS the opposing political party naturally acting in its own interests and for the favor of its constituent members. Demanding that the opposing political apparatus act against its interests out of some phony commitment to fairness or public service is a fool's errand.

321 Chris's daddy, Mike, also had some Bidenesque habits. Via wiki :

Wallace's reputation has been retrospectively affected by his admission that he had harassed female colleagues at 60 Minutes over many years. "Back in the 1970s and '80s, 60 Minutes correspondent Mike Wallace was known for putting his hand on the backs of his female CBS News co-workers and unsnapping the clasps on their bras. 'It wasn't a secret. I have done that', Wallace told Rolling Stone magazine in 1991.

It's doubtful Chris has the upper body strength to pull this off. If he tried this move on Kayleigh, she would rip his throat out with her teeth.

Also ole Chris is a registered Dem :

On October 11, 2006, The Washington Post reported that Wallace had been a registered Democrat for more than two decades. Wallace explained his party affiliation as pragmatism, saying that being a Democrat is the only feasible means of participating in the political process in heavily Democratic Washington, DC.

345 "I think the old paradigm that the Press favors left Democrats has not
been operative for decades. The institutional Press IS the left."
Something happened in the '60's: Advocacy transformed into Activism.
Advocacy is good, not to mention mature. All you're doing is supporting something. People who disagree are welcomed to, and encouraged to advocate for their respective cause(s).

When you shift over to Activism, there is an insertion of militancy. There's an echo chamber of political correctness, a Win By Any Means Necessary attitude and a rude, deliberate lack of professionalism or maturity. And people who disagree are attacked, ridiculed, vilified and ruined.
Activists are the MSM. Your local Public Health Officer. Inspectors for Environmental Health, the Building department and more. They are in our Board Rooms. They are corporate and retail managers. They are the support structure for your local Governor. They are the former President of the United States.

Personally, I believe this single shift form advocacy to activism has been the most detrimental to our politics and destructive to the greater fabric of our nation.

I don't think of the "the media" as 'journalists' or 'reporters'. I follow the money. And the money tells me that the people in front of the cameras are simply doing what they are paid to do by people who have serious skin in the game. Serious dealing with the Chinese, for instance. Or other financial schemes, such as money laundering in Ukraine. That's what all this "#Resistance crap is about. The Spice must flow...

259 The institutional Press IS the left. Democrats are its elected arm in government.
Posted by: Alec Leamas

Now we're getting somewhere.

As Grump and Alec have done, we all should step back and look at the big BIG picture.

There exists an ideology called "leftism" (the reasons for which and the nature of which are an entirely additional essay).

The millions of people who ascribe to this ideology have self-organized into a well-arrayed army with many branches and many roles.

Those leftist who trick voters into ceding them the power to impose totalitarian laws on the nation are called "politicians."

Those leftists who strive to control the flow of information in society and to replace it with propaganda are called "the media."

Those leftists who have the task of brainwashing children into their cult are called "teachers."

Those leftists who strive to collapse the economy by consciously choosing to be drains on the nation's finances are called "welfare bums." Those who facilitate this misbehavior are called "Cloward-Piven theorists."

Those leftists who form lynch mobs the destroy any challenges to their power are called "Twitter users."

Those leftists who fund the unprofitable parts of their team effort are called "George Soros."

Etc. etc. etc.

They're all part of the same military-style opposing army, each with their own role.

However, it evolved this way organically. People are assigned roles -- they choose their roles.

Those leftists who conceived of all this and who set in motion the full-court press to take over society are called "Gramscians."

It isn't a "conspiracy," nor is anyone "in charge." It's a self-organized, self-evolved fighting force, like an anthill with drones, workers, etc.

Fighting against this ideology and its army is a multi-generational tasks. With no guarantee of success. But fight we must.

447 Look, I have a crappy little blog I rarely write on these days, and even at its height pulled in like 300 a day. Nobody would ask me to be on panel on the news to discuss the day's events. Goldberg is little more than that, these days. he can't even get a pity Washington Examiner gig any more.

Why the hell is he on TV?

448 Ok, in actual theological terminology, a '"Crucifix" is a cross which depicts Christ hanging on it, a "Cross" is bare, no figure. Roman Catholics have always favored the Crucifix in their Cathedrals, and use the bare cross in other contexts.

Most Protestants have favored the bare cross, saying it depicts Christ Risen, but I suspect it's mainly because they wanted to be different from the Catholics.

449 It is that they have been selecting for like-mindedness for a couple of generations and when everyone is more or less on board, it doesn't require coordination. They all do their thing and move toward the same endpoint goal. with total buy-in and natural alignment.

Yes -- "the Long March through the institutions."

Once you get past the tipping point of having sufficient numbers of leftists in any organization or field, they accelerate the final takeover by only hiring/admitting fellow leftists, and forcing out/expelling any and all non-leftists. Once unanimity is achieved, they just switch on the left-bias Autopilot, and everyone endlessly strives leftward without needing to be told to do so. After a few generations of this, people don't even know they're striving leftward, because it's never overtly stated. They just think that left is forward.

450 >>> 93 I don't really like what Kayleigh is doing, but the entire process has degraded into this. The press treats every press conference like some gotcha session trying to find the best hot take that DESTROYS the president, so she's just giving them back what they are trying to do. Its tit for tat, which I don't like. I'd rather they shut this down than play a stupid schoolyard game.

Yeah, its like the Obama administration. He didn't have to hold meetings with Jarret and give out orders. They all ran themselves doing what the left wants out of individual agreement with the plan and the goals. Nobody had to tell the IRS to persecute Christian and Tea Party groups. Nobody had to tell the EPA to destroy the Animas river. Nobody had to order the INS to "catch" people then not follow up when they didn't voluntarily go to court. Nobody had to command the ATF to run Fast & Furious.

And the Cross of st Peter thing sounds like BS to me. Why would someone wear a cross of NOT Christ as a Christian? Do they worship Peter???

454 Kayleigh.

I don't have twatter, but if i did, I would send her the following:

Kayleigh: Well-behaved women seldom make history.
Kayleigh: Still, she persists.
Kayleigh: The flak is heaviest over the target. Bombs away!
Kayleigh: You have enemies? Good. That means you have stood up for something, sometime in your life (W. Churchill)

Wallace not having seen behavior like hers before... is part of the problem.

458 3 things President Trump did recently that I wish he hadn't, as a matter of strategy, if nothing else:

1) Implied that that asshoe Scarborough murdered an intern 30 years ago.

2) Stated himself, instead of via a surrogate, that "Biden doesn't even know he's alive."

3) Intervened in a GOP Senate primary in AL.

I just don't see any political profit here.

459 Actually, I know of a good Chris Wallace story. Back in 1993, he and the crew of ABC (where Chris Wallace was working at the time) fell hook, line, and sinker for the sob story of a government "whistleblower." Turns out she was a psycho who was one of these government employees who couldn't get fired.

I really do wonder what it actually is that the Left is hiding so
desperately that they were willing to have their minion Governors kill
thousands of elderly people.

They wanted to see if they could get away with it. Its just a test run. Remember they intend to kill many millions of us, ask Obama's pal Bill Ayers about that.

463 Little Chrissy Wallace is so angry at DJT for saying that he (Chrissy) is nothing like his father Mike. Now we know Mike was no hero, but that smack down has Chrissy brooding over DJT 24-7. What a p*ssy.

464 For years, the 'right' have been talking about pushing back on the MSM, how the MSM is the enemy. The MSM pushes a narrative.

And then the Golden Scalp Weasel comes along with The Great Unmasking and the Heel Turn that the #NeverTrumps did was so fast it broke the sound barrier.

Now, anything that the normal MSM puts out is gold and shant nant be questioned. EVER.

465 No, unmasking US citizens in intelligence collection is not routine. That is why it has to be approved by a senior official like DIRNSA or the USAG. Senior officials close to the President are supposedly accountable to POTUS, who is accountable to voters, and thus deterred from shredding the 4th amendment. That's the theory. Of course, if nothing bad happens when the President orders it, there's no deterrent.

471 Jonah has that same demeanor you would see from Anthony Weiner when he was on tv up against a conservative female (an episode of Hannity with Michelle Bachman comes to mind where'd you really see it with Weiner) there's so much built up hate against a female that dares to not toe the line that they can't even contain it on live tv......and we see where that lead for Weiner.

472 "But the press' main mission is not reportage and has not been for a long, long time. Its main mission is critique. Criticizing. Attacking."

It's almost like it's a Culture Of Critique.
