Trump just had one of the most brilliant inauguration days in modern America history, delivering the type of message that Americans have been desperate to hear for years.
Unfortunately, mainstream media seems nonplussed by the messages Americans are eager to hear, as evidenced by the nonsense that they’re continuing to spew after Trump took his (rightful) place back in the White House.
Just consider the recent, rather hysterical publication from CNN.
It’s not just a “news” article – it’s a full-blown report, or an attempt at one.
“Trump 2.0 vs. the US Constitution, annotated,” CNN blared, before beginning to spew a sea of disinformation.
“Unlike any other president, Donald Trump has tested the words and ideas in the literal text of the US Constitution, from the Preamble through the 27th Amendment,” CNN proclaimed, the pearl clutching on full display.
Oh, please. Spare us all …
As CNN was also a major enforcer of the Hunter Biden laptop lie, amongst others, it should come as no surprise that the network is coming out, guns blazing, against the First Amendment.
As CNN oftentimes reinforces social media disinformation, it’s hardly surprising that the network is all in favor of the government having an all-powerful voice.
The network began with a rather frightening headline, which proclaimed, “Free-speech cases shouldn’t neuter critical power of the government’s voice.”
Is that so?
With respect, CNN, the “critical power of the government’s voice” has been on overload ever since the Obama regime, especially as Biden is now “finishing” none other than Obama’s job, apparently. At least according to Obama himself, as well as Biden for at least half his presidency.
The content of the article itself is even more insane, in particular its effective rewrite of the First Amendment.
“The First Amendment forbids the government from coercing others to engage in censorship on its behalf, but it permits the government to urge action and participate in public debate, even vigorously. The second half of this equation has been understated in the discussion of these two cases, but if the Supreme Court fails to account for it our democracy could suffer,” CNN declared.
Really? Since when does the government have the right to “urge action and participate in public debate,” especially as “vigorously” as CNN claims it can?
Perhaps CNN should revisit the actual text of the First Amendment itself – you know, to ensure they are using the correct “facts” in their opinions.
According to Cornell Law School, not to mention every other source available, the text of the First Amendment is rather direct and straightforward:
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”
Well, isn’t that something? The only place the government is even mentioned is with regard to citizens filing grievances.
Needless to say, many grievances should have been filed during the pandemic.
Exactly where does the First Amendment state that the government should be “vigorously” engaging in public debate? As that appears totally and completely made up.
Frighteningly, CNN’s readership is unlikely to look at the actual text of the amendment themselves.
For that matter, they are unlikely to even read the entire article, which contains some other real gems regarding CNN’s shameless propaganda machine.
“While the allegations of unconstitutional coercion are much weaker in this case, at least one interaction between the Biden administration and the platforms appears to have crossed the constitutional line …
That interaction involved a heated 2021 email exchange between individuals at Facebook and White House officials, who berated the platform for failing to take down disinformation and then vaguely warned that they were “considering our options on what to do about it,” CNN admitted.
So, in other words, even CNN admitted, in writing (several paragraphs down), that “at least one” interaction between the Biden White House and social media companies was unconstitutional.
Now that Trump has returned to power, one can only imagine the degree to which CNN will crucify everything he does as a threat to the Constitution … while continuing to ignore the Marxists in their wake.
