By now we are all too familiar with the schemes and plots of the corporate media as they participate in the political illusion of choice game. However, for Rupert Murdoch and Fox News debate moderator Martha MacCallum, this catch shreds the remaining little credibility they carried. Fox News is hosting the GOP debate in Wisconsin. During this build up segment, Martha MacCallum introduces the “random Republican voters” in Wisconsin who will watch the debate. Except, well… there’s a little problem. MacCallum introduces Chris Lawrence as a “Wisconsin GOP voter” who seemingly supports Ron DeSantis. However, MacCallum fails to mention that…

Not unexpected. Fox is not fooling anyone. McCallum and Beir two of a kind, can't trust them.

FTA: ...Not only has Chris Lawrence worked for the Koch Network for the past 9 years, he is also the Senior Field Director for the Koch group Americans for Prosperity. In essence, Lawrence is a political operative planted in the group by Fox News to support Ron DeSantis and make it appear like he is an innocuous voter. Fox News and Martha MacCallum should be embarrassed, but they won’t be. WATCH

The Conservative Trumphouse is today true to form, wildly criticizing anything that has any hint of non-support of Trump. I quit reading his stories long ago but i constantly see in the headlines the announcement of another of his tirades.

Since the Murdoch son took over and since Paul Ryan's membership on the Board of Fox, Fox News has become just another CNN and MSNBC. It is no longer a credible news source.

Fox, Koch bros and DeSAntis collude to present a little less than fair and balanced report, disclosing rooting interest for DeSAntis. Nothing to see here. Sundance exposes the truth and he’s the problem. Got it. Truth stinks. Go chicanery. But whatever you do, don’t reevaluate your opinions on the now fourth in the polls neverTrump supported candidate of the day.

I read Sundance a bit differently than others. Rather than seeing “non-support” for PDJT, I think Sundance’s research and analysis shed light on the putrid Swamp. AND, illuminate the inner workings of our political system, as currently bastardized. To me, understanding the current RNC-DNC relationship explains the questions and incongruities of the last 30+ years. And as has been stated ad nauseum, this explains the vitriol directed toward PDJT and us, his “followers.” We, thanks to him, are onto the power brokers of the Uniparty. Can’t have that now, can we.

Only those with a special interest are allowed into these venues where debates take place. I suspect that there isn't a single person in that place that doesn't have some connection to a candidate's campaign. Even if there are, the odds of these people being picked to ask a question is slim to none, and slim left town. Faking like they just picked a random person from off the street to ask a question is the real Kabuki theater.

Whoever wrote the header should lose his job, and the CTH piece itself seems slightly reckless regarding the facts and represents quite a change in Sundance's usual logical and reasonable standards. Being an activist does not make Lawrence a "fake GOP voter in Wisconsin." He can be an activist if he wants and a "GOP voter" as well. Sundance seems to be implying that FNC and Lawrence intentionally set up a sinister scheme to attack Trump while Lawrence poses as a DeSantis activist on debate night. Claims like that require proof, yet I don't see any. To me this seems like a flimsy way of grasping at straws to connect some dots, which is certainly not Sundance's usual style. Besides, so what if Lawrence could be a NeverTrumper? Lots of GOP voters are! Is CTH suggesting that everyone interviewed be required to disclose their personal candidate preferences in advance?

If true, this is a very damning expose of a formerly good news organization gone bad. If McCallum knew about this, and it's likely that she did, she just lowered herself considerably. The DeSantis plant obviously had a practiced speech ready and is using Trump's unfortunate choice of Judas Pence to make his argument. Pence had all of us fooled with his pious but cowardly demeanor for a long time so questioning Trump's judgement is not fair. It matters not to us, the debate will be ignored and essentially meaningless.

"Proving yet again, that everything in the Ron DeSantis orbit is astroturf, phony, manufactured and made up." Sundance, again, is off the rails. There isn't a single policy or proposal Ron DeSantis has either enacted or put forward that is not conservative to the core, yet it seems every Trump supporter shouts, without evidence, that he's GOPe, managed by Rinos who apparently want, among other things, open borders, and the WEF. Again. no evidence, just accusations. Sundance followers need to be reminded that the only opponent deserving of such passionate rantings is Joe Biden.

He is supported by AFP and the Koch brothers. True Koch brothers have a rather curious view of democracy, American labor and the democratic process. Trye. This activiist is masquerading as a randomly selected Wisconsin Voter. True Koch brothers have vowed to spend as much as necessary to block Trump, defeat TRump, and by extension his supporters. True Fox chose in its usual fair and balanced approach to reporting news to the conservative voters who still remember what it was, to mislead its viewership. True Sundance called them out for being disingenous ( that means they deliberatedly tried to mislead people like yourself) True. You continue to take your marching orders from Fox news and Paul Ryan. True You cannot be a defender of the founding fathers intentions and a defender of those who would continue the republican country club status quo. You cannot simultaneously support the flag bearer for the Rockefeller Bush Romney Rove Ryan and the Goldwater Reagan Kemp Gingrich Palin Trump limited government wing of the party. Either country club or limited government WTP, but you cannot be birth. But again, Sundance, for pointing out what you don't want pointed out, he's the problem

After attempting to navigate through the politics in order to curry favor with the base Republican voters on a Ukraine position, when confronted by Piers Morgan who is a pro-NATO war voice, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis now says his former position on Ukraine has been “mischaracterized” and Vladimir Putin “is a war criminal.” The walk back highlights once again that Ron DeSantis is an empty vessel using poll testing to formulate his policy stances.

All eyes will be on Milwaukee tonight for the first Republican presidential primary debate. Despite more than eight years of brazen attacks on his opponents since riding down the golden escalator to announce his candidacy in 2015, Donald Trump has decided to sit out this debate. Unsurprisingly, the twice-impeached and now four-time indicted ex-president is, first and foremost, a swampy politician who won’t risk getting rhetorically pummeled by one of his challengers....As former Labor Secretary Robert Reich wrote in an essay last month, Bidenomics “is turning out to be the most successful set of economic policies the United States has witnessed in a half-century.”

A summer surge of COVID-19 has some wondering aloud if we should return to mask mandates. For now, the official line, despite the media effort to rekindle coronavirus hysteria, is that it’s unlikely. But we heard that before, in 2020, right before public health officials dropped their mask tyranny on us. If they do it again, we have an obligation to say no. Are we calling for civil disobedience? Are we suggesting that Americans resist orders that are not laws but are instead decrees issued by despots? Absolutely, and without reservation. Masks are dehumanizing.
