Like Fox, Newsmax is a Fraud, a Falacious Right-Wing Propaganda Machine

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

Lawsuits are of little concern to the super-rich. The money involved is an illusion. The victor seldom receives the designated monetary settlement, and the guilty use the loss as a tax deduction. However, it does reveal the truth.

Fox News faced many lawsuits in its 29 years of lying to the American people. However, this fake news network proves my allegation that lawsuits mean nothing to billionaires. Their profits are measured in billions of dollars, and settling a lawsuit for millions means nothing.

Newsmax, another right-wing propaganda machine funded by Trump’s billionaires/oligarchs recently lost what appears to be a fortune to the average American. However, for its billionaire owners, it is “chump change.”

The 2020 election was historically relevant to American history. However, a side effect increased the wealth of one of the primary manufacturers of voting machines.

Dominion has already won several lawsuits related to Trump’s “big lie” about the results of the 2020 election. Its latest victory involves an even more extreme propaganda machine, ‘Newsmax.’

Dominion was awarded a paltry 67 million dollars for ‘defamation’ by a sad excuse for “news,” Newsmax.

I made a decision on the morning of November 9, 2016. I would never watch another television news broadcast in my life. Knowing that all major news networks are laced with lies and half-truths, I believe my IQ has risen by at least 10 points over the last nine years.

My reason for the boycott is founded on my deep affection for the truth. Throughout the 2016 campaign, the mainstream media offered Trump five-times more coverage than all other candidates combined. In the world of television news, sensationalism produces greater advertising revenue.

Television news broadcasts I once enjoyed allowed Trump and his team to spin every interview into a campaign ad. They refused to answer a single direct question, and the media allowed them to do as they pleased.

Every day I search for facts related to the events of the last day, week, month, or year. I consider myself one of the most informed Americans in the nation.

My final decision is simple: Trump, bad: the America of our Founding Fathers, good.

The Real Victims in the Trump Saga

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump’s defense strategy has changed, slightly. He claims that all of his legal battles are founded in political strategy, created by his enemies. He is playing the role of a victim. I guess part of Trump’s decline in mental acuity is a severe loss of memory. He appears to forget that many of the crimes he is accused of began long before he made the mistake of seeking the presidency. Others, including his insurrection on January 6, and stolen classified documents are actions witnessed by every American. We are not falling for your bullshit, Donnie Boy. THE REAL VICTIMS A brief look at Trump’s history reveals a life of crime. From bribing public officials, and refusing to pay contractors, to allegations of physical, sexual assault, the orange buffoon left a long trail of victims. As your illegitimate president, he violated the basic human rights of thousands. According to medical experts, Trump’s failure to take timely action to prevent an oncom...

Aileen Cannon: A Corrupt Judge Appointed by a Lifelong Criminal

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Aileen Cannon is a federal judge, appointed by Donald Trump. She has been charged with one of the most important cases involving Trump’s life of crime; his theft of classified documents when he was evicted from the White House on January 20, 2021. Yesterday she gave Trump a gift by delaying his upcoming trial. The events which followed prove that he violated the Espionage Act of 1917. He is also guilty of lying to the FBI, a federal crime. Before the raid on Mar-a-Lago, when they discovered boxes of national secrets hidden throughout the millionaire’s playpen, he claimed that he had returned all of them. TRUMP AND HIS SUPPORTERS: LIES, MISDIRECTION, BASELESS ATTACKS You might have noticed that Trump, his failed party, and his supporters constantly lie about everything. There is undeniable proof that the only attempted fraud in the 2020 election can be attributed to Trump supporters. The 91 indictments against Trump are not a “witch hunt:” I have ...

“The Economy is in ‘Pretty Good Shape?’”

Image
Bessent is not quite a billionaire, yet, but he is a perfect example of how ignorant Trump’s administration is. Scott Bessent is Trump’s unqualified Treasury Secretary. He is not one of the billionaires on Trump’s cabinet, but he is worth 521 million dollars. This one fact prevents the old, white man from understanding what it is to be a real American in the 21 st century. What they're saying: "There is a little uncertainty, but in general, the companies I've spoken to, CEOs, who have come into Treasury tell me that the economy is very solid," Bessent said at a conference hosted by the American Bankers Association. Really? Nobody asked me. I can offer you one fact, one example of how ignorant this Trump stooge actually is. My wife and I worked for about 40 years each. We chose our professions badly. The only retirement income we have is what we paid for: our Social Security. In January we received a 2.5 percent increase in our monthly checks. However, the cost of nec...
