Now it looks like America has stopped listening.

This is what they want. They want to make sure the sheep are not watching the erosion of our way of life, and our strength as a nation. The people "fundamentally changing America", don't want any of us to notice what they are doing, because the left and the right are the same when it comes to wanting to have a comfortable lifestyle, and not be forced to ration things they really need or enjoy.

In a related story, Fauci is being grilled on Capital Hill about his Covid lies. Only one news network is showing the live coverage and the others are still talking about Trump, like they've done every day for the last 8 years. The system doesn't want truth brought to the eyes and ears of Americans, the system just wants Americans to be clueless and compliant.

It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers−out of unorthodoxy

For someone who says they get their news from "all different sources," you sure don't see that it is being covered by "all different sources."

But then, you see conspiracies everywhere.

Let's not forget that the far right EpochTimes, which is apparently what all you conservative boys here read on a daily basis, has been accused of money laundering.

Yeah, perhaps your press sources are suspect.

NEW YORK (AP) — The arrest of an executive at The Epoch Times in a money-laundering scheme this week has drawn attention to a media outlet that has lived largely in the shadows since its founding in 2000 and a transformation during the Trump administration.

Federal prosecutors in New York charged Weidong “Bill” Guan of Secaucus, N.J., chief financial officer of The Epoch Times, of steering at least $67 million in criminal proceeds, much from fraudulently obtained unemployment insurance benefits, to the company, its affiliates and himself. Guan pleaded not guilty but was suspended by The Epoch Times, which agreed to cooperate with prosecutors.

The case calls into question the future of a company that was a key online supporter of Trump and spreader of conspiracy theories.
