Supreme Court Ruled The Media Can Lie With Impunity

So, the Court held that the First Amendment protects the publication of all statements, even false ones, about the conduct of public officials, except when statements are made with actual malice (with knowledge that they are false or in reckless disregard of their truth or falsity).  Under this new standard, Sullivan’s original case collapsed, and this is why today, lies are told by media and public officials with impunity.

Americans Strongly Dislike PC Culture

Youth isn’t a good proxy for support of political correctness, and race isn’t either.

As scholars Stephen Hawkins, Daniel Yudkin, Miriam Juan-Torres, and Tim Dixon argue in a report published Wednesday, “Hidden Tribes: A Study of America’s Polarized Landscape,” most Americans don’t fit into either of these camps. They also share more common ground than the daily fights on social media might suggest—including a general aversion to PC culture.

If you look at what Americans have to say on issues such as immigration, the extent of white privilege, and the prevalence of sexual harassment, the authors argue, seven distinct clusters emerge: progressive activists, traditional liberals, passive liberals, the politically disengaged, moderates, traditional conservatives, and devoted conservatives.

Robert Steele: Washington Examiner on Trump’s Successes (Vastly Superior to What the White House Communications Team Can Produce)

ROBERT STEELE: My focus is on election reform so as to terminate the Deep State. To that end I believe that President Donald Trump is my best shot at getting this idea considered. Sadly the White House Communications Team sucks.  They are simply incapable of presenting the President and his accomplishments to the public in a useful manner to include a daily fireside chat, thousands of seven minute videos, a  two-way Presidential Public Forum, and more. Below is the very best effort I have seen, from the Washington Examiner by Paul Bedford.  Bravo.

NOTE: Missing from list are black people and election reform. The three things President Trump could do to earn a “bump” in three weeks are:

  1. Pardon twelve Black Panthers (black males)
  2. Appoint Carol Mosely Braun to the UN, and several women of color to WH
  3. Announce #UNRIG Election Reform Act as a promise for 2019

Trump’s list: 289 accomplishments in just 20 months, ‘relentless’ promise-keeping

Here is the crummy White House list

‘He'll be re-elected': Trump and allies tout the sweet smell of 2020 success

Anthony Scaramucci, who spent an ill-fated 11 days at the White House last year as communications director, has written a book lionising the president.

Scaramucci believes the mood on the ground is quietly shifting in the president’s favour despite the attached social stigma.

“I’m a sales guy,” he said, “I returned to my company and I’ve travelled the entire country over the last 12 months, and what I can tell you is that the whisper is up.
