In another lifetime, maybe I will be as clever as other writers who come up with some great nomenclature for the corrupt, psy-optic forces in our world. Rush Limbaugh famously called them the Drive-By Media. A writer at Townhall wrote a book about Outrage, Inc. and a go-to reference for Covid, journalist Alex Berenson, has labeled them Team Apocalypse. It all amounts to the same thing and conveys a similar attitude toward their reality creation and curation through fixation on generating absolute hysteria.
Certain stories write themselves, and so it is with the tragic – and I do mean tragic – case of four-year-old Ariana Delane, the niece of the beatified and sainted George Floyd. What are the odds that the career criminal would witness, from wherever he is now, the violent attack on his helpless little niece. Of all the families in the world, this one keeps somehow finding trouble.
So what happened? Young Ariana appears to have been the victim of what is being reported as a random 3:00am shooting into her family’s apartment unit just a few days ago. Random? Maybe. Eh, on second thought, I doubt it. But sure. Let’s call it random.
The bigger story is the absence of the story. To be sure, it is getting headlines to highlight the public safety response, such as one that read “ George Floyd’s 4-Year-Old Niece Was Shot, Waited 4 Hours For Help .” Fake headlines like this would communicate a lot more compassion if these same people didn’t also advocate for defunding the public safety apparatus. You can’t have less police and quicker response times in the same universe. It is one or the other.
So as it stands, there is no outrage or hysteria to be had as far as larger lessons to be learned. There is no […]

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
