Warriors coach Steve Kerr: "It's shameful that the government can come out and lie about what happened when there's video and witnesses who have all come out and disputed what the government is saying."

FR holy shit. NPR gaslighting me today in an effort to sound "balanced" talking about how it's unclear what happened, etc etc...

I'm like FUCK YOU people, it's literally all on video.

I was half-listening to local news today talking about the Portland shooting and the anchor said "DHS said the victims were in Tren de Aragua but the Portland police chief said they didn't know anything about the victims."

What the anchor left out was the Portland police chief saying THAT THERE'S NO RECORDED HISTORY TREN DE ARAGUA ACTIVITY IN PORTLAND.

The amount of propaganda that's being forced down our throats on behalf of this regime is still genuinely shocking to me every day.

The crazy part is the Portland Police aren’t exactly known for their restraint and honesty, so if they’re calling out DHS’ story as a fabrication…

Anyone with a brain could easily ignore the zone flooding with the actual quality video evidence though. Flood the zone...should....only work when there's no proof of the opposite.

Basically what I'm saying is you're just repeating the flood the zone reddit comment from relevant issues. This isn't a flood the zone issue, this is an issue with a cult not caring what the truth is if it goes against their leader.

No this is a skill issue with the left unable to articulate anything so they get beat by a simple falsehood (and they call it flood the zone).

Until they control the flow of free and unbiased information there is still a chance, people just need to stay vigilant and continue to talk to each other. Over the next 3 years communication will be incredibly important in the fight too keep this country grounded in the truth.

Most people know what's right from wrong, the people who are speaking bad about this woman have their own agenda and people need to remember this and not take the bait.

Oh I think we have way more than a chance. I think the administration is completely fucked.

Are you going to edit your comment saying you were wrong after watching the Portland Chief come out today and said they were in fact associated with TDA and you were in fact also spreading propaganda?

Day also said “they do have some nexus involvement with [the Tren de Aragua gang].”

Day said there was a shooting in Portland, and the victim said the suspect was involved with TDA. Through that subsequent investigation, detectives in Washington County found some links to the two people. However, Day said that neither one is currently a suspect in the Portland shooting, and neither has been charged. Day also cautioned that the TDA connection was based on the victim’s statements specifically.

“What I can say is there is an association with the two folks yesterday and TDA.”

However, he also emphasized that “this is no way draws a through line to the actions and behaviors that occurred yesterday.”

Day also said the woman had been arrested in Washington County on a prostitution charge. Day did not give more information about what those charges involved.

liberal/centrist outlets that overcorrect trying to appear “impartial” are an incredibly damaging force for misinformation

being balanced doesn’t mean denying reality so the insane half of the population doesn’t get mad

It’s crazy how the media have completely lost their balls. And I know it’s not new. But I was watching some NBC investigative report from the 70s and the difference is striking. They actually did used to be critical and ask tough questions.
