Ricky's Ratings Crater Big-time After Report Release

"The beginning of the attempted cover-up that's happening right now, right in front of our faces."

The Mueller investigation was a cash cow to what had long been a floundering and flailing ugly stepsister of NBC News, staffed by mouthbreathers and watched primarily by leftist kooks and the low-info troops. But Ricky Maddow has seen his ratings notably increase thanks to her spoon feeding the growing legions of Tin Foil Hat wearing imbeciles as the Mueller investigation unfolded. But the release of AG Barr’s summary letter threw a wrench into the narrative that has driven the network’s coverage. The Mueller disappointment drove loyal viewers away who sensed the total fraud that MSNBC gleefully perpetrated on their audience. Maddow, who has consistently vied for the first or second top-rated cable news program, was sixth on Monday evening, down almost 500,000 total viewers from the previous Monday, as was MSNBC’s second top-rated program in primetime, The Last Turd With Lawrence O’Donnell.

8P- Tucker - 3.87M, Hayes 1.51M, Cooper- 795,000.  

9P- Hannity- 4.05M, Maddow- 2.51M, Cuomo- 911,000. 

Fox more than quadrupled CNN. (insert laugh track here)

The cash cow is now dying and that's why they're clinging so tightly to it. And you can bet they will try to keep this conspiracy nonsense alive as long as possible. But it is doubtful that anyone who wasn’t watching her before the Mueller investigation is going to stick around to watch him create a conspiracy theory of a secret report proving Trump is owned by Russia.

"MSNBC has succeeded in convincing a lot of people that William Barr is running around radically misrepresenting the true findings of the Mueller report & Mueller and his team of high-powered lawyers are just sitting silently by while he does it. How dumb & gullible do you have be to believe this? MSNBC is like an apocalyptic cult that kept promising its flock the world would end on a specific date & now that it hasn't, they have to invent new theories to keep them hooked." - Glen Greenwald

The fake news business is far too lucrative to expect accountability, but let's hope millions of Americans finally understand that they have been bamboozled and tune them out.

One Does Not Simply ‘Move On’ From A Coup

by G.Benton

Now that Robert Mueller’s report dropped a MOAB on the Russia Collusion narrative, some nice folk on the right are calling for ‘moving on’ and healing. Hard pass, thanks. When former Director of the CIA John Brennan, otherwise known as patient zero for the what can only be called a soft coup, now wishes to blame years of treasonous behavior on ‘bad intel’ and skate by – it’s definitely NOT time to move on. It’s time to make sure each and every co-conspirator is exposed and held accountable.

The problem is it is precisely the urge to ‘move on’ and ‘heal’ on the right that let the traitors believe they could seek to overturn an election, falsely impeach a duly elected president, and destroy anyone who got in the way. We must remember that this was an attempted coup, not a ‘hoax’ or a misunderstanding or ‘bad intel’. While we have heard the term ‘coup’ many times recently, and perhaps we’ve grown used to the idea. But this is something many of us never really imagined would be possible in the United States of America. And yet here we are.

Let me ask you a rhetorical question. Do you think we’ve heard the worst of what those behind this coup did? Considering that we already know from various testimony and documents that from the top of the Obama administration down to key players in the DOJ, State, FBI, and the media conspired to take down the Trump administration and destroy the lives of many around him (including his family), I’d say there’s a near 100 percent chance that we’ve only seen the tip of the iceberg. The public is easily distracted and life comes at us fast these days. If we become complacent and breathe a sigh of relief that this Mueller fiasco is over, and if we make the fatal mistake of moving on then the perpetrators (traitors) will learn nothing, retain power, and almost certainly return stronger one day.

Creatures such as Pelosi, Schumer, and others burrowed in deep blue districts do not fear for their political viability. They simply seek to manage the narrative and the news cycle with lies.That is how someone like Granny Pantsuit could still be guzzling chardonnay in the woods instead of wiling away her remaining years in prison. Too few citizens are actually even aware of what has happened. Too many were duped by such transparent, stupid lies. The idea that Donald Trump, a billionaire capitalist who has spoken for decades of wanting to reform America, would be a willing stooge of Vladimir Putin is the kind of stuff that wouldn’t make it past the first draft in a Hollywood script.

There are folks on the right who don’t want to believe these things could be happening in America. Bless their hearts, they project their own inherent goodness on the left – and that is a potentially fatal flaw that the left has exploited for decades. Then there are the miscreants known as Never Trumpers, who provide aid and comfort for those who wish to impose these new rules on the rest of us, either out of rank ignorance or malice. Let’s never forget – Never Trumpers have been wrong about everything. And Obama promised a fundamental transformation. Thankfully, he and his chosen gin-soaked successor were too incompetent to fully see their vision into reality. But they got close. Too close. And they did real damage that we’ll be repairing for a long, long time. 

Remember this: Had the Never Trump nitwits had their way, President Hillary would now have the courts with willing toadies who would legislate away the 1st and 2nd amendments – and with them the rest of our inconvenient rights. We know today that Fake News is indisputably the enemy of the people. Those who cry that Trump attacks the press can stop now. He’s been telling an inconvenient truth. We know that certain pundits on the right and almost everyone on the left actively gaslighted the American people in an effort to regain political power and undo the people’s choice in 2016. If that’s not the enemy of the people, I don’t know what is. 

 Every single one of these people needs to be held accountable in direct proportion to their actions. Some should be fired, some should be prosecuted. All should be forever stained by their willingness to usurp the will of the people and undermine our electoral process. We either have the rule of law and it applies to everyone, or we don’t.

What an Embarrassment and Mockery of Journalism They Have All Become......

THE STUPIDEST WORDS EVER SPOKEN

On Sunday’s CNN's super-ironically-named Reliable Sources, in light of what the left-wing media has been screaming for nearly 800 days having been shown to be wrong and utterly bankrupt, the irrelevant Watergate dinosaur Carl Bernstein, reveling again in the bright lights of the media attention, took time out from repeating the exact same thing he's been saying night after night for two years to celebrated just how stellar a job the media has done:

“Look — let’s look at where the disinformation and mistakes and lying have come from. It hasn’t come from the press; it’s come from the President of the United States and those around him. I think we’ve done — the media, the press — has done one of the great reporting jobs in history, especially of covering a presidency by the most news organizations.”

It's now called "GOING FULL BERNSTEIN"

Joy Reid: Feels Like the Seeds of a Cover-Up Up in Here

You knew it wouldn't take long, and pretty much knew who would be saying it. The Exalted Negress of MSNBC Joy Reid, who knows a thing or two about cover-ups, spoke up first. She stacked her morning weekend show with some of those liberal soft-heads who've advanced careers over the last 22 months spreading conspiracy theories and unfounded hysteria over Trump-Russia collusion, and are now peddling a new misdirection to cover up their embarrassing failure. MSNBC, like the Clown News Network, has profited mightily from the 24/7 Russia, Russia thing and both stand with microphone in hand and their pants around their ankles now the conspiracy has collapsed at their very feet:

On MSNBC this morning, Joy Reid talked with her panel about what Attorney General Bill Barr will ultimately do now that he’s reviewing the full Mueller report, even suggesting possible “seeds of a cover-up.” Reid read from Barr’s letter––the part where the AG pledged “as much transparency as possible”––and said, “I remain cynical.” 

Above the Law editor Elie Mystal agreed with Reid, saying, “Is Trump’s flunky going to release a report that might be damaging to his sugar daddy? I don’t think so. I don’t even know why we think that Barr isn’t the one who stopped the investigation,” he continued. “This is a 22-month-long investigation, Barr’s been on the scene for a month, and now we’re done? That doesn’t strike anybody as odd? No, I have absolutely no confidence that Bill Barr will do anything other than what is in the best interest of Donald Trump.” 

Reid then said she has concerns about “the seeds of a cover-up”: 

“The fact that this investigation takes place within the Justice Department, which Donald Trump essentially controls, and that he got rid of the problem, Jeff Sessions, who––the one decent thing that he did was just recuse himself. This guy is not recused. It feels like the seeds of a cover-up are here.”

If you constantly went on TV or wrote things to mislead millions into believing Mueller was coming to arrest Trump, Jr.Trump, Jared and a whole slew of others for conspiring with the Russians to deny the rightful ascension of Hillary Clinton, just admit it. Save yourselves the embarrassment of all this whitewashing & pretending. You have run out of turd polish. Democratic elites, NatSec officials, & the cable news hosts who pushed their conspiracy narrative don't realize, and will never reckon with, how much they have just helped Trump's re-election campaign.

They Need Your Help Now More Than Ever....
