The corporate-controlled press smeared Donald Trump nonstop for five years.
Media lies and suppression were the main reason why Joe Biden is currently in the White House.
But The New York Times was forced to retract one story about the Capitol Hill riot that left Americans stunned.
The New York Times and other mainstream outlets have been incessantly covering the Capitol Hill riot in an attempt to label all Trump supporters as terrorists.
But the Democrat Media Complex has sensationalized the story to absurd degrees.
They’ve characterized the episode as an “armed insurrection” and fretted about how the country almost lost its democracy.
The breach at the Capitol was embarrassing; it doesn’t need to be disfigured into something it wasn’t.
But The Times did exactly that when they reported that rioters killed Capitol Hill police officer Brian Sicknick by bashing him over the head with a fire extinguisher.
The only problem is that there is no evidence that actually happened.
The Times was forced to edit their original reporting as follows:
Then on Wednesday, pro-Trump rioters attacked that citadel of democracy and overpowered Mr. Sicknick, 42, according to two law enforcement officials. With a bloody gash in his head, Mr. Sicknick was rushed to the hospital and placed on life support. He died on Thursday evening. [Note: omitted from this version are the words “and struck him in the head with a fire extinguisher” which appeared in the original article.]
The cause of Officer Sicknick’s tragic death is not yet known.
The emended Times article continued:
Medical experts have said he did not die of blunt force trauma, according to one law enforcement official. “He returned to his division office and collapsed,” the Capitol Police said in the statement.
The fire extinguisher narrative was spread far and wide by the entire media ecosystem, which means it’s already been etched into the memories of most readers and viewers.
In the wake of the Capitol Hill breach, Democrats are calling on the government to label Republicans as domestic terrorists and pull Fox News off the air.
This level of hysteria and division is unsustainable.
The bias in the so-called “mainstream” media has become too big to ignore.
News outlets bill themselves as institutions that hold power accountable, but they have become one of the institutions that must be kept in check by vigilant consumers of information.

I never liked CNN – we call it Constant Negative News and that’s the truth – Trump may not be the best president or the one we all want to see in office – but wasting our time and money on investigating him was fruitless. No president is perfect but the majority voted for him so let’s support/pray for him to make good decisions. I waited for 8 years to vote out Obama so ya’all can wait until 2020 and vote for whom you want as president. Meanwhile leave Trump alone
