Free Press Under Attack By The Left

Mayor Bill De Blasio Continues to Attack the Free Press

When I saw that the free press was under attack I naturally assumed that the left was, once again, blaming President Trump for saying "bad things" about them. Never mind that the President is viciously attacked by the leftist media daily. When the liberal media attacks you, you're just supposed to be quiet and take it. Somehow, defending yourself is against their rules and you're not supposed to do that. Bad President! How DARE you call US out!!!

Well, it turns out that it's the leftist mayor of New York City who has his panties in a twist. Yes, Mr. Bill (You remember him from late night TV) is in a snit because there is actually a bit of, so-called, "freedom" in America's media. Liberals will be having NONE of that! 

You see, the left has a problem. Their problem is that their message sucks stagnant pond water. Look at what they are campaigning on for the mid-term elections. "Hate Trump!" That's it, folks..... in a nutshell. They have no dramatically low unemployment numbers to point to. They have no growing economy to take credit for. They can't take credit for strengthening our military. They can't take credit for the growing optimism about the future of the nation. Their message is "We HATE Trump..... and you should vote for us and hate Trump too!!!" Golly, Gee! That's really something to grab onto!! And, sadly, there are enough brain damaged America haters out there to climb on board the Hate Express and vote leftist too. (Thanks, Department of Indoctrination!) 

Their problem with the media is the same problem they've always had. The leftist media portrays themselves as the arbiters of "truth". Whatever they decide is the truth is what they believe and all else is a "lie". That worked well for the 2016 elections, didn't it? They believed Hillary was going to win and how dare anyone say anything different! Even left of center FOX News projected Hillary to win. The media invented their version of the truth, they forced that on everyone with a TV or radio, their internal polls echoed what they believed and absolutely no one they knew was going to vote for Trump so how could he possibly win? When you're that oblivious to the pulse of the nation, then anything that doesn't fit neatly into your version of reality will come as a stunning surprise. 

And that is exactly Mr. De Blasio's main bitch. There are actually media outlets in this nation who do not walk in lockstep with the leftist narrative. They don't echo the exact same talking points as the New York Times or CNN. There are indeed two "truths" in America. One "truth" is what leftist organizations like the Times and MSNBC tell you while the other "truth" is that obvious truth that no one needs to tell you because you can see it for yourself. 

As it says in our founding documents, the truth is self-evident. No one needs to invent it or fabricate it from whole cloth then force feed it to you as "truth." That which is true is self-evidently true and simply needs to be reported on. Not editorialized, not formed, flaked and molded into something someone presents as being true when it's a complete fabrication used to advance an agenda and promote a narrative. Mr. De Blasio's problem stems from the fact that the leftists do not have a 100% iron-clad grip on what is reported so they do not have full control over what you are entitled to see on TV, read in the paper or hear on the radio. The fact that the leftists do not yet have the ability to brainwash 100% of the population is driving them more insane. 

The sad fact is that they need that iron-clad death grip on the media so that can shape the message to camouflage what they are really doing. The pure truth about socialism, liberalism, and communism is neither pretty or inspiring to anyone who is educated and can form his or her own opinions. Independent thinking is Kryptonite to all leftist ideologies which is why it is shouted down, mocked and criticised at colleges across the country. 

As you might suspect the Bible has something to say about these times in which we live today. As Islam tries to dominate thw world and kill everyone who refuses to convert to Islam the Bible says:  "But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: in whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” (the god of this world is Satan)

—2 Corinthians 4:3-4

During the end times, God Himself will send a strong delusion so that ALL of those who believe in deception and lies will continue in their deception until the very end.
“And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”
—2 Thessalonians 2:10-12
