The hypocrisy flooding out of the media in torrents concerning Trump and his wide ranging condemnation of bigotry, hatred and racism on all sides is a wonder to behold…utter shamelessness of the left-wing media including our own sainted BBC which has declared that the Far Right are ‘Trump’s shock troops’ and today told us that Trump had signed a ‘Faustian pact’ with the white supremacists….they are apparently his base voters whom he cannot offend…so the BBC dismisses all those who vote for Trump as Far Right racists….heard that before in relation to Brexit…the BBC is far more of a hate monger than Trump as it demonises anyone who doesn’t submit to its extremist views on immigration as racists and Nazis.
The KKK as most probably know, except those at the BBC, is a Democratic Party creation…but what of say The Nation of Islam…what does the Southern Law Poverty Centre say about the NOI?
Nation of Islam
Since its founding in 1930, the Nation of Islam (NOI) has grown into one of the wealthiest and best-known organizations in black America. Its theology of innate black superiority over whites and the deeply racist, anti-Semitic and anti-gay rhetoric of its leaders have earned the NOI a prominent position in the ranks of organized hate.
Did Barack Obama loudly condemn the Nation of Islam? Did he not give licence to them on his election? The NOI heaped praise upon Obama when he was elected…thus he must in fact be a racist, anti-Semitic Muslim by the BBC’s logic which tells us Trump must be a white supremacist because white supremacists cheered his election just as the NOI cheered Obama…and gave him money to help get him elected…..
Farrakhan hails Obama as ‘hope of entire world’
In his first major public address since a cancer crisis, Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan said Sunday that presidential candidate Barack Obama is the “hope of the entire world” that the U.S. will change for the better.
Louis Farrakhan Shares Details Of Private Meeting With Obama
Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan recently revealed for the first time the details of a private meeting he had at his Chicago home with Barack Obama just before the then-U.S. Senator announced his run for president.
Speaking to at the Nation of Islam’s mosque in Chicago late last month, the fiery minister said that he gave Obama financial support to help him win pubic office. He also acknowledged that he has withheld details of his relationship with Obama for fear of political consequences for the former community organizer.
“We supported him when he was a community organizer,” said Farrakhan. “We backed him with money and with the help of the [Fruit of Islam] to get him elected.”
And one might note that the Left Wing Facebook hasn’t seen fit to close down the Nation of Islam’s Facebook account advertising stuff like this…
Trump condemned all groups that spread hate, bigotry and racism…the Left want him to limit his criticism to the Far Right giving the Left wing extremists a pass.
Note they did not attack Obama at all for his order to all US government officials banning use the word Islam in conjunction with terrorism or extremism and his failure to condemn Islamic terror….
Obama did not utter the words “radical” or “Islam,” instead referring to the attack as “an act of terror and an act of hate.” Indeed, he has resisted using the term “radical Islam” throughout his presidency despite pressure from Republicans.
Obama Bans Terms Islam` and Jihad` From U.S. Security Document
Document under President Bush cited ‘militant Islamic radicalism’ as greatest conflict of 21st century.
President Barack Obama’s advisers will remove religious terms such as “Islamic extremism” from the central document outlining the U.S. national security strategy and will use the rewritten document to emphasize that the United States does not view Muslim nations through the lens of terror, counterterrorism officials said.
On the other hand he is quick to use the word Islam when suggesting they do good things…however much that is rewriting history….
According to President Obama, “Islam has been woven into the fabric of our country since its founding.”
Emma Barnett on 5 Live decided to join in the witch hunt with her own unique insights and journalistic hubris starting off by asking if we are voting for people based upon personality rather than beliefs and policies. She was discussing the rise of Jacob Rees-Mog whom she disdainfully told us that he opposed gay marriage, didn’t want to ban zero hours contracts and didn’t want to increase welfare spending…and she quoted the charming Matthew Parris who told us that JRM may by appearance be ‘perfumed’ but his opinions are poisonous…apparently JRM’s views are hard right, not to be laughed at nor ignored, and he’s just like Farage….so once again Farage smeared as closet Nazi. Barnett of course rolled in Trump into her description of ‘personality’ politicians who have no policies…but that just isn’t true at all…Trump was elected precisely because of his policies on immigration and business. It was the BBC that concentrated almost solely on Trump’s character and only mentioned his policies in order to paint him as a racist and an Islamophobe. The BBC did much the same to May spending a lot of time trying to make out she was robotic, fixating on her personality and trying to destroy her…hence their relentless mocking of the Tory slogan ‘Strong and Stable’.
Barnett then went for Trump in a big way talking about his comments about Charlottesville…telling us he ‘has refused to condemn any one group’….well why should he just condemn one side when both are as bad as each other…the Left started the violence? We then heard he had made a Faustian pact with the white supremacists, the BBC linking him specifically and definitely with them. Barnett then brought in Matthew D’Ancona to tell us his thoughts. She didn’t bother to tell us that D’Ancona hates Trump, we only found this out later when he admitted that he ‘reviled’ him….though we might have guessed from the bile spewing out of his mouth about Trump…at one point telling us that Trump’s failure to condemn these Far Right groups [erm…he did condemn them…along with the Far Left] was ‘a slap in the face to those who fought Fascism’ and that this was a defining moment for his Presidency and a warning of things to come.
A Left Wing that cozies up to Islam can’t really lay claim to the moral high ground when talking about fighting Fascism when the two are a pretty good match for each other….Jews, gays, non-Muslims and women might not appreciate the subjugation and Islamisation of Europe or the US and may well consider that the fight against Fascism has a long way to go.
Trump has now specifically mentioned the KKK and Neo-Nazis,…guessing that won’t be enough for the Left…shame he didn’t mention BLM or the NOI and all those other Black separatist groups out there spreading hate and violence across America…..guessing the BBC won’t be condemning him for that though….
Can anyone help me with my DBI (Dead Body Index)? From yesterday I know that 1 dead American woman is more important than over 2 dozen dead Kenyans. From today I know that 1 dead French woman is more important than hundreds of dead Sierra Leonans. Does anyone know the exchange rate for dead American women to dead French women?
My theory is that its (country value) x (novelty) x (agenda) x (pictures) / (time passed)
So even a massive event in the US with pictures, like the WTC attacks has a half life over time and apart from anniversaries will generally tend to decay, while a massive event in Africa without migration to Europe or pictures will never be significant.
Incidentally, on a typical day over 90 US people are killed in traffic accidents and over 40 are murdered, while worldwide over 3000 die from dirty water. Can someone explain the relevance or importance to me in the UK of 1 dead American woman or 1 dead French woman?
OK, after that I’m back to ignoring the news as there’s nothing important or impartial there for me.
Mishal Husain has a chart, I believe.
So deeply ingrained is the hatred for President Trump in our progressive elites here and in the USA that whatever he says or does will be trashed.
If he knows this then he probably acts accordingly. The Guardian for instance has kept up a constant almost daily barrage of hate directed against him and his supporters for months. . Some of the comments have to be seen to be believed. The BBc cannot do this for obvious reasons but it does it’s best to denigrate him.
Now I think that this is foolish and dangerous for many reasons. Firstly if he falls then who knows what nightmares will follow.
If the manner of his fall is because of progressive machinations then all hell will break loose. His presence could be holding back much worse.
Next it is unwise of the opinion formers in this country to display such hostility . The same is true of Western Europe . Only US power keeps them free and safe. Germany cannot defend itself and neither can France.
There seems no doubt that Russia would fill any power vacuum not by direct invasion but more of a mafia takeover.
The link between hating the President and hating Brexiteers is strange which is why I now think this has gone beyond normal politics into something darker. I read Paul Mason’s Guardian column and quite frankly it sounded deranged . Talk of a plebian uprising needing to be put down is not rational.
It looks clear that the President will not be visiting us. The progressive left will just make it embarrassing and potentially violent. This is going to adversely affect our relationship with the USA.
Paul Mason seems to want to declare war on millions of us who do not accept his world view and by war I take it he means exactly that. To deprive us of liberty and jobs and eventually life itself. This man was recently a BBC stalwart and I assume his views were the same and he felt among friends.
Solid post. The dynamic between unelected opinion formers and elected (niche) opinion followers has swung in a very unhealthy direction.
I now understand how in times past those who were Close found themselves on opposing sides of serious conflicts.
I can either cheerfully ignore or tease the PC/SJW/triggered fraternity amongst my social circles for now, but I see them getting more empowered and aggressive as each counter valve is slammed shut by complicit authority.
And if pressure is not allowed to vent as steam, the eventual result is less pretty.
I read in a book about the Spanish Civil War that General Franco said at the time that he was going to have to kill 35% of all male adult Spaniards. I thought it sounded rather harsh, though I did note that as a gentleman he planned to spare the women and children. But seriously, if this ongoing culture war ever turns into a civil war, what do lunatics like Paul Mason think will happen? I will not submit to being ruled by communist scum like him. If it turns into a fight, what makes him think that his side will win?
BBC Six o’Clock reported FAKE history! The truth is the Civil War in the U.S. was started in a dispute over state’s rights between President Lincoln and the southern states who decided to secede because they believed the goverment in Washington D.C. was not giving them fair taxation and political representation. When the war, which was very unpopular in the North, started to rip apart the nation, Mr. Lincoln decided to make slavery the issue over which he could most
effectively energize the Northern abolitionists and their sympathizers. Slavery at the time of the Civil War was already on the way out as many in the South realized it was unsustainable and immoral. Also, at the height of slavery in the US, only 6% of the population had slaves — a small number of whom were freed slaves themselves.
It is estimated as many as 750,000 Americans died in the Civil War. The majority of the Southerners were fighting for the South — not to keep slavery. When the war ended, Northern forces literally burned much of the South to the ground. THAT is why their descendants do not want the statues burned down.
We all saw the mob reaction from the Left in the US when Trump won the election their outright hysteria in dreaming up any kind of excuse they possibly can to get it overthrown, or at least to drive him from office by any means possible. Strange that there was no similar behaviour from the so-called nasty, violent, racist bigots of the right wing Neo-Fascists, as the Leftists insist they are, when Obama was elected President.
The same attitude was prevalent from the Leftists, admittedly with somewhat less hysteria, when Regan was elected, along with Bush Snr and Bush Jnr. Remember the reaction from the Al Bore camp when he lost to Bush and all the attempts to get the result overturned? Was it all that different here because Corbyn didn’t get power here after our last election? Remember all the threats and attempts to stir up violent, sorry peaceful, demonstrations because the left didn’t like how the public dared to vote.
Ninety percent or more of violent mass demonstrations here are arranged and carried out by the Left with the very few demonstrations organised by the Right ever turning violent, unless the Left turn up in force that is. But that is something the bBBC and their fellow travellers choose to conveniently ignore and sweep from sight.
The R4 news I heard today bore no relation to the events in Charlottesville that I’ve seen videos of and heard first-hand accounts from attendees. No mention that it was entirely peaceful until the Extreme Left and BLM arrived, or that the Extreme Left gathering was unlawful. No mention that the Extreme Left arrived carrying weapons ranging from tear gas to longbows and started attacking indiscriminately.
Jon Gaunt does some real journalism here, something that the BBC now seems incapable of –

It’s amazing isn’t it. Someone drives a vehicle into a crowd of people and the BBC lose their shit that Trump doesn’t call out, criticise and specifically identify a particular group – in this case right wing white supremacists.
Yet when it happens on Westminster Bridge and London Bridge, they do everything they can to play down, gloss over and suppress the religion, race and nurturing culture of the individuals(s) involved.
I’m sure they’d be happy for Trump to start talking about how a few bad apples doesn’t denigrate a whole ideology, how this person was clearly a lone wolf and that ultimately the far right are a movement of peace.
Payne by name,
We’ve long seen this hypocrisy from the BBC but I was surprised by the extent of it from the US broadcast media – with a few exceptions such as Fox News. Outfits such as CNN and MSNBC seem to think that their hysterical opposition to Trump will not only disguise their own hypocrisy, ignorance and inadequacy but will also cover up the damage the treacherous political left has done to the US. And so Obama could capitulate to Islam and enable Iran to go nuclear and the Clintons could enrich themselves in deals with Russia and other enemies of the US without fear of the slightest scrutiny from the likes of CNN. And these alleged media organisations have been making a deafening clamour to promote investigations of the Trump administration’s “collusion” with Russia without a scrap of evidence to support the allegations.
Seems the radical US left, led by the radical left media, is involved in mass projection of its own faults and failings onto Trump and company. It also seems that the US public is not fooled: the approval rating of the media is 20-something %. This lack of confidence is no doubt due to a large extent to Donald Trump, who has cleverly turned the bile of the lefty media back on itself. ‘Fake News’ is now a label that is permanently stuck to it – and not only in the US but beyond.
And that is a fine example of the exercise of power to a good end.
I hear you. Just as Omarosa Manigault said on Tucker, Obama waited until the perp was known before calling out the BLM guy who killed those 5 police officers yet when Trump deliberately tries not to be specific, he’s branded colluding.
Payne:
The video I have seen shows a car being driven slowly, seemingly attempting to navigate a way through the crowd, until a man with a baseball bat attacks the car, at which point the driver accelerates, resulting in the death of a woman. It seems to me that if his car had not been attacked, the driver would not have panicked and accelerated.
I saw and heard none of this from the left wing MSM, which gave the impression this was a Westminster Bridge or London Bridge style high speed attack on a crowd using a car. That is not what I have seen, and the left wing activists who masquerade as journalists must have seen the same videos, they just choose not to report them, as it does not suit their narrative.
The leitmotif of the BBC is that there are no enemies on the left. Their reporting proves this. They did not report that a legal demonstration, against the removal of General Lee’s statue, was attacked by Antifa. They did not report that the car was being driven slowly, and was attacked by an Antifa supporter. They have mendaciously sought to link President Trump to some sort of neo-Nazi conspiracy, which they allege got him elected (I thought it was the Russians, but never mind). The BBC and MSM in general have proved once again that they do not try and report the news, they try and set the agenda to support their political position. They are pure propaganda merchants. nothing more.
That’s very interesting. I’ve not seen that video but it really doesn’t surprise me. I’m sure that footage will disappear along with the footage of Antifa throwing bottles of acid, piss and shit at the right wingers.
The footage on Tucker’s show with some bearded hipsters pulling down a confederate statue was truly pathetic. Some douchebag spitting on a statue and then a crowd kicking the crumbled metal like they were rejoicing Iraqis. You just wanted to laugh at their childish smugness at having done something ‘radical’.
Great point about Trump appealing to far right to get him voted which goes against the narrative that the Ruskies fixed it for him. The far right don’t normally do the commies bidding!
I’ve also seen the video, Rob. It DOES appear to indicate that the driver paniced after his car was attacked…… But, hey, do we REALLY expect to see that reported by MSM? (It was a RUPTLY video) http://www.departmentofmemes.com/article/protesters-attacked-charlottesville-drivers-car-baseball-bat
Good work, guys. In the very first video I saw (on Fox) the car was travelling slowly. Surely he would have been speeding if he really intended to kill people? If this evidence is ignored and the guy gets thrown to the wolves it will be a sad day for justice in America.
Suggest that video is fake
#1 It’s too good to be true
#2 It comes from a website titled departmentofmemes.com
which suggests their MO is creating memes
It’s not been picked up by any other source on Twitter
Tho right from the beginning I was open to the collision being an accident rather than deliberate , I have seen no evidence either way.
On a Facebook page about American media, but it ports here too:
“According to the unbiased media pundits and self-righteous soldiers of unity, Antifa represents “tolerant” revolutionaries, terrorists aren’t real Muslims, BLM advocates murdering police to end “racism”, the Democratic Party founded the KKK to politely educate black voters, Barack Obama empathized with race rioters in Ferguson/Baltimore to save lives, feminists urged the rape of Sarah Palin and Melania Trump to protect women’s rights, Hollywood fantasizes about Presidential assassination to promote compassion, gender conditioning empowers child transvestites by encouraging pedophilia, la Raza celebrates diversity by intending to demographically conquer America, but somehow a twisted faction of parading supremacists confronted by leftist militants speaks for Donald Trump, 63 million of his voters (including minorities) and all patriotic, white Americans? Naturally. What other insipid, irresponsible conclusion would I expect from the divisive, fake news, alt-truth, violence inciting media establishment?
Instead of unanimously agreeing hate is hate and holding all parties equally accountable without making reckless accusations designed to inflame tensions, partisan politics and petty vendettas are destroying any hope of racial harmony. When your only goal is to destroy Donald Trump and the common sense reforms so many Americans desperately crave – especially after the distinctly prejudiced and unapologetically anti-American policies of the past administration – anything will make sense to the millions of malcontents still conspiring to overthrow an election result by any means necessary.”
Its par for the course where Trump s concerned.The more his critics rage at him ,the more I understand he is angering the right people and confronting globalists as he said he would.The rabid left will get their come uppance but it needs Jeff Sessions to get his act together and stop being so gentlemanly.
I don’t believe a Trumps base of supporters would organise a rally called Unite the Right..Something fishy about that. They are just ordinary people seeing their standard of living eroded and they trust in Trump to bring jobs back to America..
It is now impossible for President Trump to expect any fair treatment from our media/political elites. One look at the BBC and a read of the Guardian is enough to convince anyone. Our so called educated class is so completely opposed to his existence even brainwashing their children ( yes I heard a 10 year old middle class boy chanting anti Trump slogans today and asking me if i supported him). I do not discuss politics with children was my answer. He obviously got it from his so liberal parents. State payrolled of course.
Time for the President to recall his ambassador for a lengthy consultation . There is no further reason to continue the fiction of amicable relations with Europe and us. We need to be put in our place.
Since Trump’s election the BBC have been unable to contain their hatred for, and bias against, the new President. The Charlottesville incident has driven this trend to extremes, headed up by the hatred-filled John Sopel. BBC commentary makes no mention of the Antifa or left-wing violence. Instead the objective is to blur the lines between demonstrators who want the symbols of their history preserved and ‘Nazis’ and the ‘Ku Klux Klan’: all are apparently the same bad bunch.
In this sense BBC reporting has become undisguised propaganda. The question is: should one be force taxed to spew out such hatred and propaganda on a daily basis?

By sheer coincidence…

I bet Katty Kay and Anthony Kurcher have a studio in his outhouse.
If the US networks are prepared to share space.
Well spotted, GW. A very interesting read.
I awoke to Sopel in a state of frothing-mouthed meltdown on Today this morning – one could almost hear his phlegm spattering against the microphone!
Apparently Trump’s failure to criticise the far right in the way that MSM / SJW would like has created a proper backlash amongst the Republican establishment, serious consequences, could be the thing that brings Trump down yadda yadda
But there seem to be no end of final straws as far as Sopel is concerned: the enquiry into Russian “interference”, staff turnover at the White House, no-nonsense dialogue with N Korea. But the camel keeps plodding on regardless!
On the one hand Sopel is overdue a long holiday. On the other, his continuing goggling indignation confirms that Trump is surely on the right track.
I believe that the left’s coverage of Trump has now become some sort of mass-hysteria, similar to the reaction to Princess Diana’s death. It has gone beyond anything rational; and now that the Conservatives have joined in, it has gone beyond politics. Trump gets compared to Hitler, but I don’t recall from history such a hysterical reaction even to Hitler, who was generally admired for several years after assuming power.
Wouldn`t it be nice to have a few strokes, seizures and burst blood vessels among the Trump baiting media scrum scum?
Would make a good index of how effective he is being in draining the swamp.
Do they do extra wide ambulances in the USA to ferry away the outraged and the dyspeptic in groups of , say, four?
Come on Donald-let`s see a few Kays and Sopels sent home in seizures (or nervous tics at the very least!)
The City of Baltimore, Maryland, USA, is a Democrat city.
In Baltimore, the criminal murder rate has gotten so bad that someone, usually in the BAME community, is killed everyday. At least one person. Every day. On some days it is more than one person.
I do not hear Democrats or Republicans in Washington or the US News Media asking the President to condemn the violence in Baltimore.
Why?
