Gavin Newsom Believes He Can Make Parodies Illegal

Hats off to anyone who hears deep-sea moaning and goes looking for it.

It's the first time Magnapinna has been spotted in the Tonga Trench.

Scientists say they've found a source of oxygen that doesn't rely on photosynthesis, but mining companies disagree.

“Quite honestly, we did not expect to replicate any of these findings.”

But tackling the issue with healthcare and new drugs could save 92 million lives.

CNN tried to claim on Friday that rampant shoplifting and its economic consequences are finally receding, but even the outlet’s own article couldn’t back up that claim.  CNN—owned by Warner Bros Discovery, a company led by Democrat donor David Zaslav—published a Sept. 13 article trying to minimize a major weakness for the left ahead of the 2024 election: rampant crime. CNN Business Reporter Nathaniel Meyersohn announced that a retail industry category called “shrink,” which included shoplifting but also at least four other inputs, was decreasing in reality and in retailers’ earnings calls. Meyersohn then admitted in paragraph 31 that the only element of “shrink” the public really cares about, shoplifting, was in fact increasing. Meyersohn wrote, “In fact, the shoplifting rate during the first half of 2024 in major cities was 24% higher, on average, than the same period last year, according to a recent analysis by the Council on Criminal Justice, a nonpartisan criminal justice policy organization. The shoplifting rate in the first half of 2024 was also 10% higher than in the first half of 2019.” Meyersohn penned this misleading beginning followed by this stunning admission for a media outlet ultimately run by a major democratic donor, Warner Bros Discovery CEO David Zaslav. Zaslav had donated $240,854 to Democrat candidates, traditional political action committees (PAC) or other affiliated groups in 2020-2021, according to Harvard University’s “Future of Media Project.” As reported by The Federalist, Zaslav’s “contributions skew overwhelmingly to Democrats, with $66,800 to the Hillary Victory Fund in 2016, $100,000 to Nancy Pelosi’s Victory Fund in 2019, and more than $100,000 to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in recent years.” Moreover, Zaslav and his wife even gave $10,000 each to former then-Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley in 2013, according to The Washington Post. These donations are very relevant because hiding an admission like this in paragraph 31 may make it all but invisible to the average reader. MRC Vice President for Research and Publications Brent Baker has emphasized that a significant number of readers only read the headline, while there are further drop-offs from the first paragraph, to the first two paragraphs to later in the piece.  For example, even an economics columnist for The New York Times could be fooled by an article with such a strong bias by placement if he didn’t read far enough. Partisan cheerleader and economics columnist for The New York Times Paul Krugman posted the article on X, absurdly writing, “OK, so immigrants aren’t eating pets, and murder rates are way down. But what about the huge wave of shoplifting? Well, it’s either fading fast, or was exaggerated. It may not even have happened.” OK, so immigrants aren’t eating pets, and murder rates are way down. But what about the huge wave of shoplifting? Well, it’s either fading fast, or was exaggerated. It may not even have happenedhttps://t.co/A8629mNiaD — Paul Krugman (@paulkrugman) September 13, 2024 But burying the increased shoplifting statistics in his reporting wasn’t the only bone Meyersohn threw to the left. The article also strongly implied that the retail theft crisis was overblown in the first place. In a paragraph that packaged “shrink” and theft together, Meyersohn cited a claim that retailers had “‘overexaggerated’ the impact” of “shrink” and theft.  Finally, in the same section where Meyersohn admitted that shoplifting was up, Meyersohn also owned up to the inadequacy of the “shrink” term that littered the top portion of the article that most readers might actually see. “Shrink is just one part of the story … and does not factor in other concerns stemming from theft like violence against workers, physical damage to stores and customer and employee perceptions of store safety,” he conceded.  CNN and Warner Bros Discovery did not respond to a request for comment about Zaslav’s political donations. Conservatives are under attack! Contact CNN at 404-827-1500 and demand the outlet tell the truth about how soft-on-crime policies have devastated businesses.

Having been conveniently reinstalled on the NBC/MSNBC payroll in time for the 2024 presidential election stretch run, Deep State scion/former CIA Director John Brennan joined Thursday’s Today to tag-team with co-host Craig Melvin to smear Israel for their unacceptable “form of warfare” with its “fire and forget” exploding pagers and walkie talkie operations against Hezbollah in Lebanon. Melvin and Brennan first stated the obvious that the operation was “something out of a — out of a spy movie” and “something that intelligence services over the years have tried to do in terms of trying to compromise supply chains” of their enemies. That’s where the sanity ended.     Melvin then lobbed this lament: “It’s sort of — I think it does beg the question though, director, is — is detonating a wireless device — is that an acceptable form of warfare?” Brennan — who worked in the pro-Tehran Obama administration — obviously knocked Israel, saying “I don’t believe” it was acceptable behavior by Israel because they indiscriminately had “some children and others...killed” as collateral. “It’s basically almost a fire and forget mechanism that the Israelis engaged in here. So, it’s going to tactically disrupt Hezbollah’s communication capabilities...but you have to question whether or not this is a strategically wise in terms of...emboldening Hezbollah’s interest in trying to lash back against Isarel...Hezbollah is a very, very capable organization,” he added. Melvin used blaming Israel to pivot to his last question, arguing it’s the Jewish state who’s going to create a wider war, completely ignoring the fact of Hezbollah firing missiles across the border into northern Israel since October 7, keeping roughly 60,000 Israelis out. Brennan put the onus on Israel to de-escalate, fretting they may have “plan[ned] some type of large military operation to follow these disruptive activities” and smeared Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (and not any of the Islamic terrorists) as the irrational actor: [C]learly Netanyahu, Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel wants to vanquish not just Hamas but also Hezbollah and, quite frankly, I wish that he would use more time and effort to try to see whether or not there’s a way to bring down some of the tensions as opposed to using the military and violence to lash out against his enemies. To see the relevant NBC transcript from September 19, click “expand.” NBC’s Today September 19, 2024 7:06 a.m. Eastern [ON-SCREEN HEADLINE: New Questions About Device Explosions] CRAIG MELVIN: Let’s bring in John Brennan, the former director of the CIA, now an NBC News senior national security and intelligence analyst. Director Brennan, good morning to you. Let — let’s start there. What more can you tell us about precisely how they were able to pull off this kind of operation because it really does look like something out of a — out of a spy movie. JOHN BRENNAN: Well, it does, Craig, and I must say that the Israeli intelligence and security services have tremendous technical capability as well as creativity in terms of how they put together such operations. And so, as The New York Times is reporting, it was a shell company that apparently was set up by the Israelis that fabricated these pagers and included the explosive material inside of them that could be detonated with some digital signal that was sent. So, again, this is something that intelligence services over the years have tried to do in terms of trying to compromise supply chains. Usually, it’s for surveillance or collection capabilities so you can listen in on conversations or something along those lines, but the scale of this really is quite unprecedented. But again, it just demonstrates that Israel’s ability to reach into the supply chain of one of its arch enemies, Hezbollah. MELVIN: It’s sort of — I think it does beg the question though, director, is — is detonating a wireless device — is that an acceptable form of warfare? BRENNAN: Well, I don’t, I don’t believe so because there’s no way the Israelis would have known who was going to have these pages at the time, which is why we see that there were some children and others who were killed. It’s basically almost a fire and forget mechanism that the Israelis engaged in here. So, it’s going to tactically disrupt Hezbollah’s communication capabilities and in terms of their ability to communicate with one another, but you have to question whether or not this is a strategically wise in terms of what it might do in terms of just further emboldening Hezbollah’s interest in trying to lash back against Israel, including on the international terrorist front because Hezbollah is a very, very capable organization in terms of launching terrorist attacks outside of the region. They’ve done it over the years and so I — I do think that Hassan Nasrallah, the head of Hezbollah, is going to feel quite a bit of pressure from his organization to lash back at Israel and sooner rather than later. MELVIN: What — what do you say about the possibility after these attacks, the possibility that something like this does in fact lead to a large scale conflict between Israel and Lebanon? BRENNAN: Well, the big question is whether or not the Israelis plan some type of large military operation to follow these disruptive activities over the past two days if a um an army, a military is going to launch a military operation. They’ll try to degrade the communication systems of the enemy first. So was this some type of preparation of the battlefield to allow the Israelis then to be able to strike against Hezbollah and Hezbollah not being able to defend itself? So, I do think we — this is a greater potential now for escalation. A lot depends on how Hezbollah responds, but clearly Netanyahu, Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel wants to vanquish not just Hamas but also Hezbollah and, quite frankly, I wish that he would use more time and effort to try to see whether or not there’s a way to bring down some of the tensions as opposed to using the military and violence to lash out against his enemies. MELVIN: Former CIA Director John Brenan. Director Brennan, thank you, sir. Thank you. BRENNAN: Thanks, Craig.
