The propaganda is pernicious, but if it was just one source you’d think we could survive.
Its reach however is broad and deep and has been more than a decade in the making.

From Limbaugh to today? They now pretty much own the media

The electoral college convened in all 50 states Tuesday to elect Donald Trump to be the 47th president of the United States over Vice President Kamala Harris by a vote of 312 to 226.

Next, electors must transmit certificates of their votes to Washington for the final step in determining the outcome of the election: the joint session of Congress on Jan. 6.

States and the federal government alike spent months planning for heightened security around the convening of the electors and the joint session, given the protests surrounding Biden’s victory four years ago in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

Several states reported this week that some of the preparations have proved unnecessary with Trump’s win, which Harris did not contest.

I have actually called them up and called them on their misrepresentation.

Trump was a media feature every day in every news cycle since he left the White House. Look it up. There was not a day that went by without the mention of his name or something he said or did in response to some issue or political opinion. I'd conservatively guess he got four times the coverage that the sitting President did.

The media helped him win a razor thin close election.

The Justice Department's failure to prosecute him for the insurrection he started allowed him to run again. That's where our side blew it.
