MSNBC columnist Charlie Sykes told host Nicolle Wallace on Friday on “Deadline” that “we just can’t keep reciting the same talking points” during the second Trump administration.
Host Nicolle Wallace said, “What does success look like if Republicans, to a person, are more afraid of a mean tweet from Donald Trump than someone with a record of appearing on the air and at work drunk, taking female staffers to strip clubs, an allegation of rape? What does success look like if one of the two parties is more afraid of Trump than putting that person in charge of every man and woman in the military?”

Sykes said, “Well, that is the world that we live in. And we’re seeing this on display right now. I mean, the fact that somebody like a Joni Ernst would roll over and cave in on Pete Hegseth is an indication of that.”
He added, “So, I do think that this was one of those lessons that that, you know, we all have to be better at this. We just can’t keep reciting the same talking points. We can’t use the same jargon. We can’t just simply assume that because a person is a bad character, they will be rejected. We have to make it very, very clear to the American people what this means to them, what it means to their lives and the lives of their children.” […]

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
