This is the third post of a weekly feature that highlights news and commentary on important geopolitical, cultural, and economic issues that the Democrat-media complex buries because they expose the hypocrisies associated with the continuing Marxist-Democrat narrative. Everything is properly sourced and linked for follow-up reading, whether from legacy media, independent sources, or social media.
Here we go.
Archaeology Triumphs over Judeo-Christian Skeptics. Biblical minimalists from the Copenhagen School and related critical archaeologists and scholars have argued for decades that the Hebrew Bible (the Old Testament) is largely unreliable as a historical source for early Israelite history, with archaeology often contradicting or failing to support major narratives. Furthermore, the ACLU and major atheist/secular organizations (such as American Atheists, the Freedom From Religion Foundation/FFRF, the American Humanist Association, and Center for Inquiry) are frequently in strong agreement and active collaboration on overlapping issues, especially church-state separation and equal treatment of nonbelievers. The Devil never sleeps!
Fox News reported that bestselling author and filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza has a book release scheduled for 13 October that “stunningly supports the historicity of the Bible.” He described his book “The Stones Cry Out” as an “attempt to bridge the gap between the academic world [the arm-chair critics] and the public.”
Oddly enough, the Democrat media complex are on the side of the skeptics for political reasons (especially separation of church and state), and thus the revelations in this book are being ignored by them, as well as the distinct possibility that America is on the cusp of another Great Awakening.
Democrat Internecine Warfare. Ongoing political warfare pits mainstream Democrats against the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), as DSA-backed candidates score high-profile primary victories—especially in New York and other blue areas—by challenging and unseating establishment incumbents while pushing far-left policies on economics, policing, and foreign affairs. Centrist Democrats and party figures respond with open backlash, including calls for a formal schism, warnings that DSA members are not true Democrats and should not exploit party infrastructure, and organized efforts (such as funding from groups like Third Way) to curb socialist influence ahead of midterms and 2028, amid sharp divides over issues like Israel and the party’s overall direction.
The Democrat media complex are trying to keep a lid on the infighting to enhance the electoral chances of whichever version of Democrat happens to be on the ballot wherever this November. The problem for them is that Democrats in general are experiencing foot-in-mouth disease in competition for increasingly leftist Democrat primary voters. The below Substack post lists twenty of the most outrageous public statements that, if widely known by voters, would likely sink their candidacies, but of course the legacy media whitewashes them. Here is number 14: “I want the ‘total eradication of Western civilization’ and ‘death to America’ — Darializa Avila Chevalier, a DSA member and 2026 New York 13th Congressional District Democrat nominee.” Check out the other nineteen public statements buried by the legacy media at the below-linked article; these twenty are just the tip of the iceberg!
Senior US Military Officers and the CCP. Recent revelations by investigative journalist Natalie Winters detail how, for over a decade starting around 2008, numerous senior retired U.S. generals and admirals—including former Joint Chiefs Vice Chairman Adm. William “Bill” Owens, former service chiefs, and combatant commanders—participated in the Sanya Initiative, a military dialogue series funded by the China-United States Exchange Foundation and coordinated with the China Association for International Friendly Contact (a CCP-linked influence group identified as involving intelligence collection and propaganda). These junkets and meetings in China and elsewhere (the so-called “Sanya Initiative”) created a backchannel in which Chinese counterparts encouraged the officers to advocate positions favorable to Beijing on issues such as Taiwan and U.S.-China relations; some participants, notably Owens, later developed business ties including work with Huawei, raising concerns of elite capture and influence operations by the Chinese Communist Party.
The below-linked webinar presented by the Committee on the Present Danger: China (CPDC) examines the Sanya Initiative, the immense damage that has been inflicted by the larger pattern of CCP compromise of American elites and what must be done to penalize, and ideally prevent altogether, such perfidious behavior by China and its friends. Needless to say, the Democrat media complex won’t touch this issue with a ten-foot pole since they themselves have been compromised by a similar long-running CCP influence operation.
Democrats for Republican Mike Rogers in Michigan. Abdul El-Sayed recently won the 2026 Democratic primary for the U.S. Senate in Michigan. He has faced some scrutiny over linked to groups with historical ties to terrorism financing: his father-in-law, Jukaku Tayeb, has held leadership roles including on the Council on American-Islam Relations (CAIR)-Michigan board (and previously as chapter president) and the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) Founders Committee—both organizations named as unindicted co-conspirators in the Holy Land Foundation trial involving Hamas funding—while El-Sayed’s campaign received more than $115,000 from at least 41 current or former CAIR officials and affiliates (including national board members and Tayeb himself, a major super PAC backer). Texas and Florida have officially labeled CAIR as a foreign terrorist organization. El-Sayed has also repeatedly campaigned alongside far-left streamer Hasan Piker, whose past comments on Israel, Hamas’s October 7 attack, and related topics have been widely criticized as antisemitic or supportive of terrorism, though El-Sayed has generally declined to fully disavow him.
Despite those ties – and troubling public statements including condemning Mackinac – senior Democrat politicians have endorse his candidacy, including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY, Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee chair), Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D), Sen. Gary Peters (D-MI), Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), and former Vice President Kamala Harris (D).
Apparently, some Democrats didn’t get the word to fall in line behind El-Sayed, and some are very public with their endorsement of his Republican opponent, Mike Rogers. The X account “Democrats for Mike Rogers” linked below pointed to a Washington Free Beacon post that noted that, while El-Sayed supports universal health care through a single-payer “Medicare for All” system that would cover every American “from cradle to grave,” his wife, psychiatrist Sarah Jukaku, does not take Medicare or any other insurance plan, forcing her patients to pay out of pocket for the services they receive.
Don’t hold your breath waiting for the legacy media to point out this glaring hypocrisy!
CBS’s Face the Nation Covers for Fauxi. The execrable Margaret Brennan spent part of last Sunday’s program defending Fauxi during her interview with Jay Battacharya, who has served as the 18th director of the National Institutes of Health since 2025. Bhattacharya has additionally served as the acting director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention since February 2026. Check out the post by Nick Searcy, one of my favorite conservative actors (refer to the FX Series Justified), which contains a video of Brennan’s effort to provide top cover for Fauxi and the legacy media including CBS who parroted his pronouncements during the COVID plandemic. They were all part of the conspiracy.
FBI Covers Up Biden Corruption. “You will hear of corruption and rumors of corruption…” [Apologies to Our Savior] Allegations of Joe Biden family corruption across the years have long centered on influence-peddling schemes, including millions of dollars funneled through Hunter Biden’s roles with Ukrainian energy firm Burisma and other foreign entities while Joe Biden served as vice president, with congressional probes and IRS whistleblowers later citing evidence of the elder Biden’s involvement and subsequent cover-ups.
The latest revelations, detailed in declassified intelligence documents reported by Just the News (linked below), indicate the FBI possessed reports from at least 14 confidential informants detailing such concerns dating back years yet launched a secret 2019–2020 counterintelligence operation codenamed “Round River” that dismissed the evidence as Russian disinformation, altered informant files accordingly, and labeled officials, lawmakers, and journalists investigating the matter as “conduits” for propaganda in an effort to neutralize the scandal during the 2020 election.
The FBI and legacy media have been covering up Biden family corruption for years. The legacy media are strangely silent about this latest bombshell.
Intellectual Case of Socialism Debunked. Support for socialism continues to rise in the U.S. Recent surveys (primarily 2025–mid-2026) indicate that overall favorable or positive views of socialism typically range from about 28–39% (e.g., Gallup August 2025: 39% positive; Economist/YouGov June 2026: 32% favorable; I&I/TIPP May–June 2026: 33% favorable). Worse yet, among 18–29 or 18–34-year-olds, favorable/positive views or preference for socialism over capitalism often reach 40–62% (examples include ~43–62% favorable in various breakdowns, with some polls showing young adults preferring socialism by double-digit margins or majority support for a democratic socialist presidential candidate in 2028).
That younger Americans increasingly have favorable views of socialism reflects the abject failure of public education to convey historical lessons and long-known proofs that socialism is a fool’s paradise that ignores human nature.
The X account “Handre” (@Handre) has been doing yeoman’s work lately in posting important historical information about the socialism that is apparently no longer taught in high schools, colleges, and universities. One of those that quotes Austrian economist Ludwig von Mises is linked below. Democrats and their legacy media allies ignore the historical failures of socialism around the world while giving shade to the DSA (and selling out the younger generations of America). Here’s an excerpt:
The argument was precise. Mises showed that without private ownership of the means of production, there are no real prices for capital goods. Without prices, you cannot calculate profit and loss. Without profit and loss, economic planners have no way of knowing whether they are creating value or destroying it. They are flying blind, spending real resources with no feedback mechanism telling them whether the factory, the railway, or the grain depot was worth building. Every allocation becomes a guess dressed up as a decree.
The Fauxi Wrap. Anthony Fauxi’s pleading of the 5th Amendment at the Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing, as well as the revelations from his personal diary that contradict his public policy pronouncements, appear to have shattered his mythical status in the minds of many Americans. The legacy media are working overtime to spin his “38 years of public service” to obfuscate their own roles in the COVID conspiracy.
Jeffrey Tucker, Founder and President of the Brownstone Institute, succinctly sums up Fauxi’s terrible legacy in an article excerpted at his X account (@jeffreytucker) and linked below:
The lead voice of science himself worried that the pandemic was lab-made and scrambled to avoid blame. Otherwise, he paid no attention to science other than refreshing his webpage set to Our World in Data. He never once show[s] concern for the howls of pain from the public (and kids) due to lockdowns but instead collected celebrity endorsements, cash prizes, and other emoluments. Before the shot even came available, he privately notes that mutations make it useless. He then found out that the potion is dangerous and said nothing. He further reveals how he worked from within to undermine and defy and destroy the administration for which he worked. This diary ruins him forever – and reveals that nothing he ever said can be trusted – and he takes all his cohorts and the entire pandemic response the world over down with him.
The Democrat media complex who pushed the jabs on everyone, as well as all the ridiculous social distancing protocols that destroyed lives and damaged children, keep digging holes for Fauxi and themselves by giving Fauxi shade.
American Academy of Pediatrics Exposed. By way of introduction to this issue, here is a comparison of the children’s vaccine regimen in the U.S. versus the European Union. The U.S. childhood immunization schedule, as recommended by the CDC, has historically covered more diseases (around 16–18, including hepatitis B at birth, rotavirus, varicella/chickenpox, and others) and involves a higher total number of doses—often cited as 70+ injections or doses by age 18 when counting multi-dose series and annual flu shots—compared to most EU countries. European schedules vary significantly by nation but are generally leaner, routinely covering core vaccines against diseases like measles, mumps, rubella, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, and Hib while often omitting or delaying others such as universal varicella, rotavirus, or early hepatitis B, resulting in fewer overall doses for many children.
A registered nurse on X (@TheRealisticRN) surveyed public records to find that the AAP, which shapes the childhood vaccine schedule in the U.S., is funded by the vaccine makers themselves, including Pfizer, Merck, Moderna, and Sanofi. Talk about a direct conflict of interest! But that’s not the half of it. Check out her thread linked below, including the tax records scrutinized listed at the end:
So Long, Jeff Sessions! We Hardly Knew Ya. Jeff Sessions was publicly announced as President-elect Donald Trump’s Attorney General nominee on 18 November 2016, confirmed by the Senate on 8 February 2017 (52–47), and sworn in shortly thereafter as America’s 84th attorney general; he recused himself from the Russia investigation on 2 March 2017, amid intense media and Democratic pressure over the unfolding “Russia collusion” narrative (later widely characterized as a hoax), faced ongoing calls for his resignation throughout 2017–2018 over immigration enforcement, the Mueller probe, and other issues, and ultimately resigned on 7 November 2018, at Trump’s request after the midterm elections, serving roughly 21 months. His tenure was relatively brief compared with most confirmed modern Attorneys General (who often serve full presidential terms or longer). The last AG to serve a comparable term was Benjamin Civiletti (August 1979–January 1981, about 17 months) during the Carter presidency.
Sessions’ recusal from the Russia collusion investigation and subsequent resignation was a head-scratcher for many people – until this week! Here is how the Daily Signal broke the bombshell:
In the early months of President Donald Trump’s first term, when enemies of the administration clung to the since-discredited Russia collusion narrative, the FBI opened a probe called “March Toll” into then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
The FBI launched the probe at the behest of two Democrat senators, one of whom resigned from office in disgrace before the bureau concluded the investigation of Sessions. The senators, Patrick Leahy of Vermont and Al Franken of Minnesota, wrote to then-FBI Director James Comey to demand an investigation.
The year-long probe began the day after Comey was fired and AFTER Sessions had recused himself from the Russia collusion investigation. The mild-mannered Alabaman must have been shocked that two of his former senate colleagues initiated the FBI investigation into him. Read more at the linked article below. . explains a lot! Too bad this was kept under wraps at the time (somehow the FBI leakers always seem to benefit the Democrat narrative). At any rate, none of the legacy media have paid any attention to this bombshell, which highlights the FBI’s apparently boundless political corruption.
Whistleblower Nurse Details Alleged Multi-Layer Medicaid Fraud Used to Fund Gender-Transition Treatments on Minors at Texas Children’s Hospital. Lastly, this is the headline of independent investigative reporter Catherine Herridge (@C_Herridge) on her X account. She exclusively interviewed the whistleblower involved in an FBI investigation at the hospital. The result: in a landmark 2026 settlement with Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and the U.S. Department of Justice, Texas Children’s Hospital agreed to pay $10 million, cease providing gender-transition interventions for minors, and establish the nation’s first dedicated detransition clinic, resolving multi-year investigations into allegations that the hospital fraudulently billed Texas Medicaid—using falsified or improper diagnosis codes—for puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and related treatments on minors that the state program does not cover for gender dysphoria.
Watch the short video of Nurse Vanessa Sivadge at the X post linked below. As the Democrat media complex fully support the LGBTQI+ agenda, especially so-called “transgenders” (formerly known as “transvestites”), this settlement is being ignored by them.
CONCLUDING THOUGHTS
Here ends the third weekly summary of news items that the Democrat-media complex ignore or obfuscate because they don’t fit their political narrative. My goal is to continue to expose some of the REAL news stories that the legacy media and Democrat Party are covering up – or about which they are flat-out lying!
Many thanks to my paid subscribers and the value you place in my commentary! These weekly reports are just for you.
The end.
