(RINF<\/a>) – In a New Year\u2019s day editorial<\/span><\/a>, WaPo discussed the \u201cunsupportable\u201d and \u201cdangerous\u201d Trump presidency – seditious sounding language.<\/span><\/div>\n

He \u201cpose(s) (a) threat to democratic norms and civility,\u201d it said – no evidence cited.<\/span><\/p>\n

He \u201ccelebrat(ed) violence at rallies\u2026\u201d They were instigated at least in part by Soros-financed anti-Trump elements.<\/span><\/p>\n

He \u201cscapegoat(s) entire religions and nationalities\u2026\u201d Wanting Muslim immigration suspended until \u201cwe can figure out what\u2019s going on\u201d is disgraceful, agreed. Wanting a wall on Mexico\u2019s border, besides what\u2019s already in place, is also way over-the-top, no disagreement.<\/span><\/p>\n

He \u201ctrad(es) in lies and personal insults.\u201d Don\u2019t all politicians? It goes with the territory. In a previous article, I called Obama America\u2019s liar-in-chief.<\/span><\/p>\n

Trump poses \u201ca challenge to (our) democratic system\u2026\u201d None existed from the republic\u2019s inception. Today, America is a plutocracy run at the expense of ordinary people.<\/span><\/p>\n

WaPo wants Trump \u201cmonitor(ed) (to see) to what extent (he) fulfills his promise to help those who have been bypassed by economic recovery.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Fact: None exists, except for America\u2019s wealthy, powerful and privileged. The great majority of others are suffering under protracted Main Street Depression conditions – Obama\u2019s agenda complicit with Wall Street and other corporate favorites responsible.<\/span><\/p>\n

WaPo wants Trump closely watched to see if he\u2019ll \u201cadvocate policies\u2026essential to keep America safe and to promote peace and liberty overseas.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Fact: It\u2019s WaPo\u2019s code language, wanting endless wars of aggression continued on the phony pretexts of democracy building and humanitarian intervention.<\/span><\/p>\n

WaPo owner Jeff Bezos has CIA ties, serving its dark agenda. An obvious conflict of interest exists gone unmentioned.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The broadsheet is a virtual agency house organ. Bezos got a $600 million CIA contract for much more than Amazon Web Services.<\/span><\/p>\n

He features information and views America\u2019s deep state wants published, while suppressing what readers most need to know.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

During the political season, WaPo served as a virtual Hillary press agent, much like the New York Times, denigrating Trump mercilessly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Both broadsheets are laughing stocks, advocacy substituting for what journalism is supposed to be – absent on their pages, fake news instead on vital issues, especially geopolitical ones.<\/span><\/p>\n
