The leftist media is saying that the President calling them out about reporting lies and mistruth is undermining the First Amendment of the Constitution. The First Amendment reads: “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.” The First Amendment is actually threatened in several ways. One is if the news media abrogates its responsibility as a trusted watchdog of the government; another is if the government threatens its guaranteed freedoms; and another is if citizens don’t hold accountability.
The leftist news media has abrogated its responsibility as a watchdog. As a collective group, it is crying like spoiled children because a President dare expose its heretofore monopoly on reporting whatever it can to support a narrative of a political agenda that is poisonous to the Republic’s form of government. This is very real. It appears that the mainstream of the leftist media is conspiring with the leftists in the Democratic Party to undermine duly elected officials and prevent them from governing as the people have so instructed. This is proven repeatedly by the fake news, the visceral participation in dividing the nation, inflaming the populace and reporting the news from a slanted point of view, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The previous Administration and the leftist news media worked together for eight years in painting a picture of America that was and is counter to the Constitution. Laws were broken. Laws went unenforced. Conservatives were singled out and punished or silenced. In his parting address to the news correspondents dinner on April 30, 2016, the former “president” said, “But we’ve always shared the same goal–to root our public discourse in the truth; to open the doors of this democracy; to do whatever we can to make our country and our world more free and more just. And I’ve always appreciated the role that you have all played as equal partners in reaching these goals.” His words were never truer or more revealing of this relationship. His truth remains a globalist socialism that is counter to and incompatible with the American ideal.
When the media supports a particular political agenda (surveys indicate the media votes about 90% for Democrats) it has lost all objectivity resulting in the public receiving mass weaponized deception. It is up to the people, therefore, to stand for their First Amendment rights. It starts by boycotting leftist media because it is dependent on your viewership/readership. Then we must vocalize our distrust. Above all we must stand for the truth-not facts as they are presented-but the truth. Jesus said in John 8:32, “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” In John 14:6, Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes unto the Father, but by me.” Galatians 5:1 says, “Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.” Let us do so with vigor.
