Team Trump Is Winning The Media Battle

By Treating Left-Wing Press As The Propagandists They Are (The Enemy)

The reason the entire Trump administration is successfully fielding absurd questions so well is because they understand these ‘journalists’ are just the propaganda wing of the Democrat party.
I don’t really care, Margaret,” is a line that has now reverberated throughout the country — and for good reason.
CBS News’ Margaret Brennan tried on Sunday to trap Vice President J.D. Vance with a typical left-wing gotcha question about a near terrorist attack in Oklahoma. Vance pointed out, correctly, that an Afghan man was allowed into the U.S. through a questionable vetting process under the Biden-Harris administration. Brennan tried to contend that it was unclear whether the alleged terrorist was radicalized before he entered the United States (as if that makes a difference).
“I don’t really care, Margaret. I don’t want that person in my country, and I think most Americans agree with me,” Vance fired back.

 
For too long, Republicans and the American people have been conditioned to treat people like Brennan as “journalists.” In doing so, they’ve shouldered a burden to prove or defend basic principles (in this case protecting our people and our sovereignty) to these so-called journalists who are supposed to be unbiased and in pursuit of legitimate answers to legitimate questions.
Nowadays, people like Brennan aren’t asking legitimate questions or looking for legitimate answers — they’re just trying to create fodder for Democrats.
While Trump, former press secretaries Kayleigh McEnany, and Sarah Huckabee Sanders fielded questions similarly during the first Trump administration, there certainly was much to be desired from people like Mike Pence and other administration officials.
But perhaps what is more apparent this go around for Team Trump is the widespread understanding within the administration that these “journalists” are just propagandists.
Take Karoline Leavitt’s first press briefing as White House press secretary.
“NBC News has learned that ICE arrested 1,179 undocumented immigrants on Sunday, but nearly half of them — 566 of the migrants — appear to have no prior criminal record besides entering the country illegally,” one reporter said, asking whether there’s been a shift in policy from President Donald Trump, who campaigned on beginning deportations of illegal immigrants with “criminals.”
The reporter technically answered her own question, rightly noting that the “criminal record” the aforementioned aliens had was being here illegally.
Leavitt didn’t miss a beat, firing back that “a foreign national who illegally enters the United States of America” is “by definition, a criminal.”
Leavitt understands the burden isn’t on her (or the president) to explain to a hack why someone being here illegally is, well, illegal and necessitates a deportation.
Meanwhile, CNN’s Jake Tapper asked White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller on Tuesday about illegal immigration and grocery prices.
“The Department of Agriculture says that between 2020 and 2022, 42% of crop workers were undocumented immigrants and in many cases, as you know, these migrants do jobs many Americans do not want to do,” Tapper claimed, before asking how Trump would work to deport illegal immigrants while ensuring grocery prices don’t rise.
It’s a preposterous dichotomy: Tapper wants his viewers to believe that they must relinquish their national sovereignty if they want lower grocery prices, using the false pretense that grocery prices are kept low when illegal immigrants are exploited for cheap labor.
But Miller didn’t hesitate to point out the absurd insinuation.
“Well, I’m sure it’s not your position, Jake, you’re just asking the question that we should supply America’s food with exploitative illegal alien labor. I obviously don’t think that’s what you’re implying,” Miller said, condescendingly pointing out the absurdity of Tapper’s premise. “Only 1% of alien workers in the entire country work in agriculture. The top destination for illegal aliens are large cities like New York, Los Angeles, and small industrial towns, of course, all across the heartland, as we’ve seen with the Biden floods, none of those illegal aliens are doing farm work.”
Miller then went on to outline Trump’s policies that would benefit consumers and farmers.
The reason Miller, Leavitt, Vance, and the entire Trump administration are fielding these absurd questions so well is because they are approaching every interview and every question as though it’s a debate with a Democrat — because they understand these “journalists” are just the propaganda wing of the Democrat party.

STFU Margaret! If Taxpayer Money Is Being Spent On Trans Comic Books

I don’t give a flying DAMN if it’s a DIME, that’s freaking wrong and it’s taxpayer rape.

 
Margaret Brennan Pivots During Interview After Brian Mast Shows Evidence Of Wasteful Spending
Left-wing host Margaret Brennan was forced to pivot during an interview on Sunday after a guest she demanded evidence from provided evidence that shut down her line of questioning.
The moment happened when Brennan interviewed Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL), Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, during a Sunday interview on CBS News’ “60 Minutes.”
Mast said that he supported the “purging of people throughout the State Department” and “other agencies where we’re freezing aid,” which he said were “very important and necessary steps to make sure that we secure America.”
“You want to authorize purging of State Department personnel?” Brennan asked. “What does that mean exactly?”
“Well, if you want to take a look at the State Department, where DEI has been a priority over, let’s say, diplomacy, in many accounts, I can give you hundreds of examples of where they were authorizing–” Mast began to say before Brennan cut him off.
“What proof do you have of that?” she asked.
“Sure. Let’s list them off. Half a million dollars to expand atheism in Nepal, $50,000 to do, let’s see, a transgender opera in Colombia,” he said. “$47,000 to do an LGBTQ trans comic book in Peru. $20,000 a pop to do drag shows in Ecuador. Shall I continue with more examples of where DEI was the priority?”
Brennan responded by saying that the government could just have “a review of things” and that foreign aid only comprised “less than 1% of the entire federal budget.”
“So we’re talking small amounts of money by comparison,” she claimed.
