How Trump Baited The Media Into Covering Islamic Terror Attacks
9 Feb 2017 by Milo
Throughout his campaign, Donald J. Trump — or, as I like to call him, Daddy — treated the mainstream media as his personal plaything. Now as the 45th President of the United States, he shows no signs of stopping.
Something similar is currently happening to me, although fortunately for feminists, black lives matter activists, fat people, vapers and cyclists I have no political aspirations.
Remember, the Trump campaign received free advertising from the mainstream media worth an estimated $5 billion dollars. They hated his guts, but couldn’t stop covering him!
Daddy’s latest triumph involves baiting the media, especially CNN (or, as they are now referred to on twitter, “those CNNTS”), into devoting more coverage to acts of Islamic terrorism around the world.
The President’s strategy was simple: accuse them of not covering Islamic terrorism, and then watch them fall over themselves to prove him wrong.
“It’s gotten to a point where it’s not even being reported,” Trump said at MacDill Air Force Base in Florida. “And in many cases, the very, very dishonest press doesn’t want to report it.”
The media, especially CNN and their intellectual peers at Buzzfeed, have for a while now been engaging in a desperate campaign to frame the White House and its spokespeople as being purveyors of fake news.
From going after Kellyanne Conway for use of the perfectly intelligible and uncontroversial term “alternative facts,” to their dust-up with Press Secretary Sean Spicer over the disputed inauguration crowd size, the media are convinced they can undermine trust in the administration. I, too, have beef with Sean Spicer, but it has more to do with him snatching a job I thought I had in the bag.
The attacks aren’t working. Trump’s approval rating is at 42 percent and rising, while trust in the media remains at a dismal 34 percent — the lowest in history. Yet the media still believe they can get the public to mistrust Trump as much as they mistrust them. Of course their coordinated move to introduce the concept of fake news has failed so miserably, due to their own fakery, that they’ve started walking back the term after just months!
Here’s a snippet from a recent CNN article about the media’s coverage of terrorism:
There are 16 terrorist attacks on the White House list of purportedly under-covered attacks that each elicited more than 3,000 media mentions.
The following are a representative sample:
In Ottawa in October 2014 Michael Zehaf-Bibeau killed a Canadian soldier.
Two months later in Sydney, Man Haron Monis killed two Australians.
In March 2015, 21 tourists were killed at the Bardo Museum in Tunis, Tunisia.
Two months later in Garland, Texas, two ISIS-inspired militants attacked a Prophet Mohammed cartoon contest. Luckily no one was killed except the terrorists.
In Tunisia, also in 2015, 38 were killed at a beach popular with Westerners.
In October 2015, 224 were killed in Sinai, Egypt, when ISIS brought down a Russian passenger jet with a bomb.
The terror attacks in Paris and Nice, France, that Trump cited in his CENTCOM speech also received more than 3,000 media mentions.
This is exactly what Trump was hoping CNN would do. Why do people keep underestimating Daddy? It’s mystifying to me.
It’s not like this is the first time that Trump has baited the media. His unquestionable tour de force was the unveiling of the Trump International Hotel in Washington D.C in September, during the election campaign.
Trump announced in advance that he was going to address the issue of then-President Obama’s birth certificate at the unveiling, which of course caused the entire mainstream media to descend on the event. They were certain Trump was going to embarrass himself with an outlandish, potentially campaign-killing conspiracy theory. Or, alternatively, walk back his previous remarks, which he never does and which they could spin as a victory.
Instead, Trump devoted just one sentence to the “birther” issue, at the very end of the event, where he flatly acknowledged that Obama was born in America. But in order to get to that, the mainstream media not only had to cover the opening of Trump’s new hotel, but also a string of military veterans endorsing him for President. The media were giving free publicity to his business and his political campaign. A fuming Jake Tapper called it a “political rickroll.” I wont lie, I was aroused for weeks.
I said it right at the start of his campaign: Donald Trump is the king of trolling his critics. And in the media, he’s found a perfect, and widely-despised mark. Here’s hoping it never ends.

President Trump Released a List of 78 Terror Attacks The Media Hopes You Ignore
Feb 8, 2017
As the media tries to blame President Donald J. Trump for a failed raid on a Yemen terror compound by the U.S. military coupled with his recent temporary moratorium on travel from a list of seven terror-exporting countries, the media is in a full blown effort to undermine the president’s efforts to fight terror. To remind the world just how dangerous ISIS and its compatriots are, the Trump administration released a list of 78 terror attacks that the media is trying desperately to ignore in the hopes you, the American people, will never learn of them.
Last weekend a raid in Yemen ended up in a failed effort to take out al Qaeda leader Qassim al-Rimi. Unfortunately the raid not only failed to take out al-Rimi, it also ended up in the loss of a $75 million aircraft and, even worse, the loss of one of our own men, Navy SEAL William “Ryan” Owens.
Many in the media are calling it Donald Trump’s “botched raid.” This characterization is mostly a false portrayal of the action because it was planned and initially approved during the last months of the Obama era.
Contrary to what some have reported, Obama did not reject the operation as planned during his waning days in office. In truth, the military commanders in charge of the raid were the ones responsible for delaying the attack until Trump took office (they didn’t delay it because they were waiting for Trump to take office). Trump was presented the same information Obama was and both presidents signed off on the raid. The only difference is that it was delayed by the Pentagon and carried out this month, instead of during Obama’s last months in office.
So, calling it “Trump’s failed raid” as if it was planned and executed by his own operatives is a misleading and essentially false assessment.
Sadly, just about everything went wrong with this raid. But worse is the fact that some feel that the al Qaeda operatives knew the attack was coming and had stocked their compound with armed women and children all of whom were firing at our troops.
“Several women in the compound immediately, ran to pre-established positions — as though they had trained to be ready, and trained to be combatants — and engaged with us,” Pentagon Spokesman Capt. Jeff Davis said of the operation.
Even as a number of al Qaeda operatives were killed in the raid, some reports said an 8-year-old girl also lost her life.
It seems highly likely that al Qaeda was tipped off to this raid. After all, there are still a lot of Obama operatives in Trump’s government and all of them want to see Trump fail.
This failed raid is only piled on top of the continued fight against the president’s travel order from last week.
But all of this tends to remind the country just how dangerous our world is due to Muslim terror and with that in mind the Trump administration released a list of 78 terror attacks that the media hopes you forget ever happened.

“It’s gotten to a point where it’s not even being reported, and in many cases the very, very dishonest press doesn’t want to report it,” Trump told senior members of the U.S. military on Monday.
Some of the attacks on this list, such as the bombings in Paris and Brussels and the terrible attack in San Bernardino, California, did get world wide coverage, granted. But many others were quickly swept under the media rug and the Trump administration wants us all to understand that terror attacks don’t happen infrequently. Indeed, the world is being hit by an almost daily deluge of terror attacks.

Muslims in the USA want Sharia law and say they will not follow US laws.
Posted on February 9, 2017 by tom
Muslims in the USA want Sharia law and say they will not follow US laws. Muslims and Islam refuse to integrate into the countries. Muslims want the inferior Islamic way of life and refuse to follow the superior western way of life an values. Muslim a have given nothing positive to the world for over 1400 years. Islam is a political ideology masquerading as a religion that seeks to dominate the world today. Just as Muhammad and his followers sought to dominate the world in their time.

With regard to sharia law, America is in real danger. The British people believed Muslims when they said “Muslims respect and adhere to the laws of the land they live in.”. There are now around 85 sharia courts in the UK ruling on sharia civil law. When Muslim numbers increase (from having multiple wives and babies), you can bet that they will push for sharia criminal law. Heads will literally roll when that happens Stop Muslim immigration please for your children and your grandchildren.
