Vivek Ramaswamey Asks the "Journalists" Covering Him to Admit That the RussiaGate Hoax Was a Hillary Clinton Op and That Hunter Biden's Laptop Was Real

None of the "journalists" are willing to admit any media errors in this story (let alone the truth of it -- they didn't make errors, they chose to take part in repeated disinformation operations).

They also won't admit they made any mistakes in claiming that the novel bat respiratory virus that originated in Wuhan could not possibly have come from the novel bat respiratory virus lab in Wuhan.

They also don't say that the "facts at the time" were wrong. They also don't say that the sources who gave them the "facts at the time" are untrustworthy.

They hide behind the idea that they shouldn't be giving opinions on news stories, which is such a laughable conceit considering that journalism schools now teach that being unbiased only elevates incorrect opinions.

Correct. The same media that puts every Republican utterance under a fake "fact" check microscope also tells us that they are obligated to report the claims of liberal politicians and bureaucrats as delivered from the cathedral with no fact-checking at all.

Of course, they do more than just transmit the lies of the Democrat Party Propaganda State -- they also ruthlessly attack anyone who challenges these claims, and campaign to get them deplatformed and demonetized. These "news" outfits have special units devoted exclusively to intimidating and bankrupting anyone who disputes the Democrat Propaganda State Truth of the Day.

The "don't accept the premise" mode of answering gotcha questions is VERY SLOWLY spreading through the Republican Party.

The only reasons it doesn't spread faster is that the establishment accepts the premises and politicians are generally pretty stupid people.

Well, yes - but what can they say? The press openly lies in all things, but at a certain point the lie becomes so extreme and so obvious even to lo-fos that they take a different tack and move on to different lies, equally obvious but less rancid with age.

So by cornering them with the obvious lies they *have* told but are no longer telling, he leaves them with no viable choice. It's the propaganda equivalent of the flight-or-fight response. Like its physical analogue, the press whore faces three choices:
1. Fight (usually by telling a new lie, specifically about the subject they're facing)
2. Flight (reassert the lie, damn the consequences)
3. Freeze

As with many stupid animals unable to process the options with reasonable speed - and as accentuated through human cowardice and entitlement - they froze.

I surmise that I understand the pattern of thoughts in one of these journalists asked to assent these things. Along the lines of "That decision is above my paygrade".

They didn't create the propaganda, they were only asked to propagate it and insist upon it. It's not really their call to give the game away on party propaganda.

Is challenging ALL public figures with uncomfortable questions a slam-dunk for a Pulitzer?

"Journalist" does not mean what they say it means, nor even what the dictionary says it means. It has nothing to do with facts, events, truth, honesty, fairness or integrity. "Journalist" means none of these things.

Journalists do not tell the truth. They do not report facts. They do not, in fact, report anything. The job of the journalist is to lie. Mere deceit, however, is not enough. Lying at random or lying without cause is the mark of an incompetent journalist. The lies serve a purpose.

The job of the journalist is to weave a tapestry of lies that resolves into a single image: the image of the Party as G-d, and of opponents to the Party as evil creatures that must be destroyed. What is taught in journalism schools is not reporting, but how to lie in such a manner that journalist adds his own threads to the tapestry of deceit and malice that they communally weave.

The problem is, there's a tone to the failed campaign of the guy. It's not to be confrontational with the press, and everyone knows why. He's not free to say whatever he wants. Which is the biggest reason his campaign has failed.

I don't mean to start anything either, just that he could have taken this tack, had he come out of the gate, being something closer to what people expected from him, and he didn't.

I said this earlier, but I think the path to a Trumpism without Trump in 2024 was to take on the mantle of election integrity, directly addressing concerns in places like PA and GA rhetorically while promising help to third party orgs like True the Vote to help.

Instead, he hemmed and hawed, pointed to his record in Florida, and let the issue die.

I'm starting to really like Vivek.

Trump should ascertain whether or not he can be a team player.

He needs a VP that's aggressive verbally, smart, and loaded with the facts for the campaign trail and the inevitable debates.

Vivek's gone off course a couple of times so deciding if he's today's flavor or the real deal is important.

152 It's not to be confrontational with the press, and everyone knows why. He's not free to say whatever he wants. Which is the biggest reason his campaign has failed.

*********************

That's a good point, I might be wrong but whenever ace cites DeSantis smacking around the press, it's always in the context of Florida and his function as a governor, not as a presidential candidate.

I remain convinced that had DeSantis talked like Vivek from the very beginning he'd be ahead of Trump now.

His campaign was dead before it started, there was no rationale for him to run in 24, he did an ankle dance before he jumped into a crowded field, his launch was not very good, and he's simply not a good enough retail politicker.

On the plus side, he'll probably be taking out either Rubio or Scott after his Governor gig is up, so there's that.

I think the candidates are just kind of stuck. There's not a whole lot they can do directly. They don't run the secretary of state offices in other states. They can't force precincts to do things in other states.

So, they just...don't address it.

But, it's like saying, "Well, the president only has so much control over the economy, so they should probably not talk about it much." No, you talk about it a lot and then use whatever powers you have to help when you do get power.

196 They hide behind the idea that they shouldn't be giving opinions on news stories, which is such a laughable conceit considering that journalism schools now teach that being unbiased only elevates incorrect opinions.

No. That is not, in the slightest, what they are doing at all.

They are not "hiding behind" anything. They are loudly putting their position out there, with the idea that you can't even challenge it.

No Political Trial ever starts with anybody hiding a damn thing. It always starts with the State putting their opinion out, clearly and loudly. The trick is - you can't challenge that opinion.

I always like illustrating this, in practical words, by the same assumptions many on the Right used to take as simply bedrock. The idea that "The police and military will always be on our side", for example.

It's generally accepted, now, that that's bullshit. Yet - at the time - back during the Romney Wars - calling it bullshit was simply not accepted, and those that accepted it least screamed "Heretic" the loudest.

Those people didn't hide behind anything, either. They were out front in their notion that such a statement simply could not be.

219 It is sound logic, though. If everyone’s excuse for why Trump lost the first time against Joe, Biden was because of fake ballots, what will change the next election?

And if that is true, and Trump does really believe it, why on earth, would he run again to just lose again?

Trump is just making excuses for why he lost ALL the swing states.

A man gets his bank statement, notices a lot of charges on the account that don't seem right. His wife appears to be spending a lot of money on seemingly ordinary things he hasn't seen, that the family is not benefiting from.

So he goes home to confront her, but when he opens the bedroom door, he sees her going at it with the milkman, the butcher, and the candlestick maker.

He exits the room, and exclaims: "These bills, I don't believe they are on the up and up!"

298 Nearly 21 million children in the U.S. and its territories are expected to receive food benefits this summer through a newly permanent federal program, the United States Department of Agriculture announced Wednesday.

The USDA estimates it will provide a total of $2.5 billion in grocery benefits in 2024 through the Summer EBT program. (The money will be loaded on an EBT card)

I wonder if that includes the more than 100,000 unaccompanied children that crossed the border and disappeared?

302 Late to the thread, so probably already brought up -
Reporter in response to Vivek asking them if any would admit Trump-Russia hoax reporting was incorrect.

Response - "We're doing our job asking you questions."

Also, "Media reported on the set of facts provided to them"

So, reporters want to ask questions of Vivek, but they don't want to question a set of facts presented to them. Basically, if we agree with something, no need to question. If we disagree, we'll question.

I can't stand interviews where the 'reporter' talks over the Republican interviewee, 'fact-checks' them and rolls over to the next question and not letting them respond ('we have to get to a lot of other things') and the Republican just sits there and takes it.

If blood is what they want, all you have to do is go to the other side of the wire. The one where Hamas was marching out entire towns. That, granted, were stupid enough to be caught disarmed that close to an entire area that wants to kill them.

Or look at the videos Hamas put out, about how they were killing the Jews that were stupid enough to get caught disarmed. Hamas didn't exactly hide it.

Fair enough. I say, in response, that the people of the United States, far from being citizens of a "fu**king retarded nation"', are now aware of the calamitous times we live in. The Deep State is beginning to understand this. too; witness their bizarre attempts to involve the United States in major conflicts, their ambivalence towards threatened allies, and the direct threats evolving from our porous borders. All of this hurts them politically; they are increasingly vulnerable. That's why Slow Joe is spouting fire and brimstone at his political opponents. It's the last gasp.

His big media splash after he announced was to go on Erick Erickson's radio show.

He tried touting how he's good friends with Kemp.
But did he use that to work a deal with Kemp to clean up GA elections?
Nope.
It was only used for, "see? The GOP likes me" and not Trump.
Mr. "I get things done" had a golden opportunity to show he can do more than coast behind the tailwind of a friendly legislature and .... did nothing.
