NewsBusters Podcast: Sick Socialist Wave vs. America's 250th Birthday
It's pretty sick that Socialist Revolution is the new fad in primary elections around America's 250th birthday. The media have a nasty habit of disparaging America, especially on race, and can even warn the American flag is a "red flag," now triggering people like "a MAGA hat on a stick." That's from an article on NBCNews.com.
Managing editor Curtis Houck and associate editor Nick Fondacaro joined the show to run through media happenings in the week before the Fourth of July.
On Tuesday, longtime Rep. Diana DeGette (D-Colorado) lost in a primary to Melat Kiros, a young Ethiopian-American "democratic socialist" who said America was to blame for 9/11, that our foreign policy made the deadly terrorist attack "inevitable....in the sense that we destabilized a lot of the Middle East. That forced people to believe that another act of violence was the only response."
Democrats used to try to compete with Republican on patriotism, but in recent years, they have only been able to show their revulsion at patriotism, like it's a sickening symptom of Trumpism.
We recommend you visit NewsBusters to see the Geoff Dickens collections of sickening anti-American quotes, from journalists and from celebrities. On ABC's The View, Sunny Hostin insisted our country was built on slavery and racism. In another show, co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin tried to say America is better and freer than Iran: “I think it’s very different to live in the United States in 2025 than it is in Iran.” Co-host Whoopi Goldberg shot back: “Not if you’re black!”
We also discussed how all the Democrat electioneering and wild conspiracy theories and misinformation mean The View is not acting in the public interest. It was part of several filings the Media Research made at the Federal Communications Commission to challenge the broadcast license of Disney-owned ABC stations, including Nick's daily viewing of The View.
It was a big week of decisions at the Supreme Court, like ruling in favor of the states banning boys from competing in girls' sports. NBC anchor Craig Melvin sounded apologetic in live coverage: "The terms that we’re using here during our reporting, biological male, biological female, the high court put those terms in quotations in their decision and their dissent. But just so you know, we’re using those terms from the decision itself, biological male, biological female."
NBC reporter Kelly O’Donnell lamented President Trump “often sort of boils it down into bumper sticker language, talking about transgender athletes... It’s obviously much more complex.” It's not "more complex." You're either a female, or you're a male.
