Megyn Kelly begins the show by revealing some leftist hypocrisy, featuring Jimmy Kimmel and Hollywood’s blackface past, Robert De Niro’s hypocrisy and Trump hysteria, George Stephanopoulos’ past shaming of sexual assault victims while working for Bill Clinton, his outrageous questioning of Rep. Nancy Mace over her support of Trump and past rape, the leftist hypocrisy from ABC and the rest of the corporate media, and more. Then The Daily Wire’s Andrew Klavan, author of “The House of Love and Death,” joins to talk about Hollywood’s obvious hypocrisy on who gets canceled and who gets celebrated, the Oscars somehow mostly honoring white people, celebrity chef Padma Lakshmi critiquing Megyn but going on Jimmy Kimmel’s show, all the celebs who don’t seem to mind Kimmel’s past blackface, how “Morning Joe” continues smearing Mace while defending Stephanopoulos, how the left smeared Tara Reade when she accused Joe Biden of sexual assault, Biden apologizing for using the word “illegal” when talking about the immigrant who killed Laken Riley, Trump meeting with Riley’s parents, and more. Then Daily Mail columnist Maureen Callahan joins to discuss the Stephanopoulos hypocrisy, the massive controversy around a new photo of Kate Middleton and her kids, evidence the photo is fake and worries about her health, major photo agencies “killing” the photo, the Royal response, the “Zone of Interest” director attacks Israel in his Oscars acceptance speech, whether the Oscars really started late because of a pro-Palestinian protest, a ridiculous Kate Winslet NYT profile, and more.
Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
