There are many idiotic narratives forming around the beating death of Tyre Nichols by five former Memphis police officers. The most obvious one is that this is somehow a sign of “white supremacy” and “systemic racism” even though all five ex-cops who beat Nichols severely are black.
Why would the radical left demand pure cognitive dissonance in order for the people to embrace their narrative? It seems counterproductive, especially in light of the facts that justice is in the process of being served. All five officers were fired, arrested, and charged. The “Scorpion” division of which they were a part of has been permanently disbanded. Prima facie, this is a case of very bad cops doing a very bad thing and has absolutely nothing to do with racism or white supremacy.
Perhaps popular Twitter user DC Draino has the reason for this lunacy:
George Floyd & Tyre Nichols both died in Democrat cities with Democrat Police Chiefs, Democrat Mayors, Democrat City Councils, and Democrat Congressmen. Yet Dems are saying this is white supremacy?! No, this is another tragic example of *Democrats* destroying black communities.

When the writing on the wall is this clear, the only recourse for people desperate to cover up their sins is to blame something or someone other than themselves. The radical left in general is forced to play dumb on a daily basis as news incessantly erupts from Democrat-controlled cities that clearly demonstrates their leftist policies are failing the people miserably. They also know that the victims of their failed policies are their biggest voting block.
Keeping the people in the dark can be challenging. Those who are embroiled in Democrat failures on a daily basis would like to know the truth, but radical leftists and their corporate media lapdogs will remain diligent with their gaslighting, propaganda, and indoctrination. They cannot completely destroy America if the people they’re harming wake up. They cannot retain power if their race-baiting con is revealed to the masses.
Normally, this would be the proverbial elephant in the room. In this case, we can all stare at the donkeys in the room doing all the damage.
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,
