Editorial: We see you and we won't forget

 Kamala Harris offered Americans leadership.  Elect her, she'd go into the White House with a to-do list to work for the American people.  She also told them what the alternative would be: Trump going back into the White House with an enemies list.


And the American people, by a tiny sliver, chose to the enemies list.

Now that's due to a number of things and the primary problem on the left, of course, was the fact that 'left' media used their time -- and the money we donate to them -- to attack Kamala.  THE NATION, DEMOCRACY NOW!, THE PROGRESSIVE, COMMON DREAMS and many more posted daily attacks on Kamala.

We needed every Democrat to turn out in order to defeat the very real threat that is Trump.  We needed to rally.  We needed to encourage voter turnout.

But racism and sexism intersected and left way too many of our 'trusted' outlets attacking Kamala.

Never forget that DEMOCRACY NOW! and THE NATION actively worked to elect Trump by attacking Kamala daily.

They hope that you will forget.  They need for you to forget.  If you hold them accountable, they go under.  

This reality should have led them to some analysis of their own and to confess to their journalistic malpractice.  Instead, as Ty notes this edition, THE NATION has published another garbage article keeping the focus off their own actions.

They don't want to get honest?  You shouldn't support them.

Left voters consuming 'progressive media' were fed a daily dose of Kamala The Horrible and then left voters ended up turning out in lower numbers than they did in 2020.  That's a direct link.  

They elected Donald Trump and they must be held accountable.



Kash Patel, President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee as the next director of the FBI, has big plans.

He has called for the prosecution of a long list of people he accuses of conspiring to undermine Trump, including President Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and outgoing FBI Director Christopher A. Wray.




That's on IN THESE TIMES, THE PROGRESSIVE, COMMON DREAMS, DEMOCRACY NOW! and THE NATION.  For decades now, 'progressive media,' 'beggar media,' 'panhandle media,' whatever you want to call it has critiqued corporate media.  After they actively worked to defeat Kamala and re-elect Donald Trump, they think they owe nothing.  They're due for an accounting and then some.


When Amy Goodman laments, in future months, the erosion of rights and liberties, remember that in the three months prior to the election, she attacked Kamala every single day on her program.  As the country is attacked from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue on a daily basis over the next four years, never forget how Goodman and the rest worked overtime to ensure that Kamala would not become president.
