The left is so desperate NOT to cover the criminal acts of illegal aliens that when Trump calls out a murderous illegal alien, TRUMP becomes the story.
With Biden hemorrhaging support over the consequences of his own border policly, this is nothing less than damage control in an election year.
This is exactly the same dishonest play that Nancy Pelosi tried to push when Trump ‘dissed’ gang-bangers associated with MS-13, whose record of violence that would shock the sensibilities of many other criminals, by calling them ‘animals’.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi defended violent MS-13 gang members in a press conference Thursday, saying they are not “animals,” a term President Trump dubbed MS-13 members earlier this week.
Pelosi first alluded to God, saying, “Some of us who are attracted to the political arena, to government and public service” believe that “we are all God’s children” and “there is a spark of divinity among every person on earth, and we all have to recognize that as we respect the dignity and worth of every person.”
She went on to say we must recognize that divinity in others, and it is our responsibility to do so because we have “divinity in us.” — DailyCaller, May 2018
Sure, Nancy. You really believe in that ‘divine spark’. That’s why you’re down with Planned Parenthood selling baby parts, and have blown right past the Roe requirement to protect unborn life after the point of viability.
Obviously, Trump was describing the sub-human behavior of people who did not live up to even the most basic of human obligations to other humans.
With the murder of Laken Riley, whose head was hit so hard with a blunt object that police describe the injury has having ‘changed the shape of her skull’, there is a level of malice that takes us beyond the ‘mundane’ scope of human depravity we have come to understand as typical.
Reference points for this kind of savagery are best found in the animal kingdom, where we see a victim mauled by a bear or a boar.
Trump was calling out her (alleged) killer as an animal who — but for Biden’s border policy — wouldn’t have even been in America to destroy an innocent life in the first place.
The media recognizes the dangerous persuasive force that could be leveraged by a statement like that among an audience already angry with Biden about the border crisis. It’s a statement that is guaranteed to generate outrage.
But the media has figured out a way to manage that kind of problem, too.
Harness the outrage and redirect it against a target they want to damage. That’s how almost every story — however innocuous — going back to 2016 finds either a Trump tie-in, or some other hot-button connection to race, gender, or another equally charged issue.
This time, Trump is ‘evil’ for calling all Illegals ‘animals’ — he never did. And only a selective cutting of the video will say so… just like the selective editing of the Very Fine People hoax that leaves out his denunciation of supremacists that he ‘condemns completely’.
Team Biden pushed the lie immediately. No surprise there, since his campaign launch was built on the lie that the Charlottesville Hoax was the specific event that convinced Biden to run against Trump.
*Right* before this, which you cut out, he makes clear that he’s referring to *illegal immigrants* who *murder Americans.* You can still object to the “animals” rhetoric, if you’d like, but he wasn’t talking about “immigrants” broadly. https://t.co/PYRU8eCYqW

And just like they did with the Charlottesville Hoax, CNN has already been busy with deceptive editing and pushing outrage. But so much damage has been done to media credibility since ‘Fake News’ became part of our vocabulary that they’re not getting away with it like they may have in the past.
Even ‘impartial’ news services like Reuters have outed their own biases here:
Notice their failure to use a direct quote for the statement in question, which allows them to paraphrase it any way they like, followed by the direct quote of something that leaves out key context:
While speaking of Laken Riley – a 22-year-old nursing student from Georgia allegedly murdered by a Venezuelan immigrant in the country illegally – Trump said some immigrants were sub-human.
“The Democrats say, ‘Please don’t call them animals. They’re humans.’ I said, ‘No, they’re not humans, they’re not humans, they’re animals,'” said Trump, president from 2017 to 2021. — Reuters
CNN's Wolf Blitzer gets dragged for promoting the hoax that Trump called migrants "animals."

Here’s the context activists in the newsrooms conveniently omitted:
In Trump’s full statement which was omitted from the Biden campaign‘s uploaded footage, the 77-year-old said, “Just a few weeks ago I met with the grieving family of Laken Riley,” claiming that the 22-year-old college student was “barbarically murdered by an illegal alien animal. Democrats said please don’t call immigrants ‘animals.’ I said, no, they’re not humans, they’re animals.” — Meaww
Murdered by an illegal alien animal. Those are some pretty specific and limiting modifiers applied to that noun. You’d think people who write for a living would pick up on something like that.
One of the big wins of this election cycle is that dissenting voices are free to call BS on official narratives, and a big part of what made that possible came from Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter/X.
We have a platform where we don’t just have the right to dissent, but we have the critical mass to break through the haze, too.
Once cracks begin to form in the propaganda dam, tyrants find themselves in a vulnerable space indeed.
Psalms of War: Prayers That Literally Kick Ass is a collection, from the book of Psalms, regarding how David rolled in prayer. I bet you haven’t heard these read, prayed, or sung in church against our formidable enemies — and therein lies the Church’s problem. We’re not using the spiritual weapons God gave us to waylay the powers of darkness. It might be time to dust them off and offer ‘em up if you’re truly concerned about the state of Christ’s Church and of our nation.
Also included in this book, Psalms of War, are reproductions of the author’s original art from his Biblical Badass Series of oil paintings.
This is a great gift for the prayer warriors. Real. Raw. Relevant.
