Media pretends to be blind to Biden blunders

 Mark Grabowski:

Violent crime in U.S. cities is soaring. Inflation is spiking. The Mexican border crisis is deepening. Cyberattacks against key infrastructure are surging. Gas prices keep increasing.

Yet, a USA Today article recently proclaimed President Joe Biden an “elusive target for Republicans,” arguing that they “have had little success demonizing Biden with independent voters because so many people feel they know him.”

No wonder Pulitzer-Prize-winning investigative journalist Glenn Greenwald calls the legacy media “stenographers for the state.” Press coverage of Biden isn’t just soft. It’s the least critical of any president in the past three decades, according to a study by nonpartisan think tank Pew Research Center.

Researchers analyzed reporting from major TV networks and newspapers during the first 60 days of the five most recent presidencies and found that only 19% of Biden stories were negative. By comparison, 62% of stories on former President Donald Trump were negative.

A Boston Herald editorial admitted that “the press … is treating Biden with kid gloves.”

...

I suspect they are doing this to cover their own responsibility for supporting the disaster-prone President, to begin with.  Biden has been incompetent from day one.  He has made poor decisions on policies from the Keystone XL pipeline to the border and many things in between the borders with Canada and Mexico.  He selected a low functioning Kamala Harris as VP and she has been a disaster too.  It is almost like he picked her to frighten people out of getting rid of his dementia-riddled presidency.

Republican Rep. Kevin McCarthy has cataloged some of Biden's disasters.  Inflation is taking a tool from gas prices to car prices and groceries.  Along with inflation, crime is on the rise, especially in Democrat-controlled areas.  This is happening as Democrats support defunding the police.  He also blasts them for not holding China accountable for their bioweapon that has killed hundreds of thousands of people and caused economic hardships.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
