| Trump-Hating MSM Hacks Just Wrapped Up Their Most Embarrassing Week Yet |
| 2018-05-17 |
| h/t Instapundit As I said in my column on Friday, one of the biggest stories of last week was the homecoming of the American hostages from North Korea. This was pretty big news too: Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump North Korea has announced that they will dismantle Nuclear Test Site this month, ahead of the big Summit Meeting on June 12th. Thank you, a very smart and gracious gesture! 12:08 AM - May 13, 2018 162K 49.8K people are talking about this Twitter Ads info and privacy I begin far too many sentences these days with "In a sane world," so I will try to retire that for a while. In a country populated by fewer people you're constantly overcome by the urge to strangle, either of those North Korea-related stories would have been something worth celebrating together as Americans. Sadly, we don't live in an America where we can avoid the urge to strangle, especially those of us who have to pay attention to political news. The potential of making long-term peace with a dark communist regime that we had barely communicated with for decades seems like it should be worth the majority of the attention for a few news cycles. If, however, you have been subjected to the American mainstream media for the last several days, you would mostly have read and heard about Kelly Sadler, who is a previously unknown White House aide who said something monumentally stupid in a private meeting which was then leaked to the vulture media. ...They're all still talking and writing about Kelly Sadler because there was plenty they wanted to not have to talk about. Although it seems like a thousand years ago now, it was last week that began with the resignation of New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, a Democratic poster boy for the #MeToo movement who it turns out was more catalyst than defender. If we're weighing Scheniderman's sins against Sadler's I think he may have been a smidge more newsworthy but we're dealing with narrative creation and not journalism. |
