US Media Can’t Stop Lying about Ukraine…

“In the old world of journalism, reporters forced themselves through rounds of fact checks, dug through sources, interviewed every witness and expert they could find, and even then wouldn’t publish a story until they were absolutely sure of its veracity. And if all that failed and their story was wrong, they swallowed hard and published a correction. An embarrassing yet humbling check on the press that only added points to their credibility.

That was the old world. The old world is dead.

“Russian missile attack hits market in Ukraine, kills 16,” read headlines from every major news outlet. Weeks later, once the story had spread into the public consciousness, the New York Times quietly posted an update to the story: “Evidence suggests Ukrainian missile caused market tragedy.”

The same happened with the evil Chinese spy balloon (later revealed to be a spy balloon that did no spying), the Nord Stream pipeline, and countless other stories in which the US media shaped the war instead of report on it.

Journalist Bryce Greene joins Useful Idiots to shed light on the truth, break down the lies, debunk the corporate media.

Subscribe to watch the full episode where Bryce explains the US path to peace (and the lies used to sabotage it), the extent of the corporate lies used to blame the missile strike on Russia, the terrifyingly weird English-speaking Ukrainian spokesperson who wants to “hunt down” Russian propagandists (which is extra scary when we’re constantly labeled as Putin puppets…), and how western media is shaping the Ukraine proxy war against Russia as a proxy for the larger proxy war against China.

There’s a lot of lies, so let Bryce Greene be your tour guide through the truth.

Terrified Trump Is Asking His Lawyers How Bad Prison Will Be For Him…

“According to a new report, Donald Trump is terrified of going to prison and has been repeatedly asking his lawyers questions about how bad jail will be for him. He’s asked if he’ll get to go to “Club Fed” or if he’ll have to wear one of those orange jumpsuits. This is a stark contrast to his claim last week that he “doesn’t worry” about going to jail. The man is clearly frightened, but he has only himself to blame for his situation. Farron Cousins explains what’s happening.

According to three different sources close to Donald Trump who spoke to Rolling Stone recently, the former president is in fact terrified of the prospect of going to jail. And in recent weeks, he has been peppering his lawyers constantly with questions about what life in prison would look like for him. And I’m not saying he’s gonna get life in prison, but what would his life look like if he goes to prison? Now, this is obviously a stark contrast to what Donald Trump told, uh, meet the press host, Kirsten Weer just a few days ago when he was like, ah, I don’t really think about going to jail. I’m wired differently, he said, and that is literally the quote. He goes, I don’t even think about it. I’m built a little differently, I guess. Sorry, built differently, not wired differently. So he is like, I’m not even thinking about jail.

And then those closest to him told Rolling Stone, like, this guy is literally constantly thinking about what’s gonna happen when he goes to jail. Here are some of the questions that he has allegedly been asking his attorneys. Would the authorities make him wear one of those jumpsuits in prison? Would he be sent to a club fed style prison or a bad prison? Would he serve out a sentence in a plush home confinement? Would government officials try to strip him of his lifetime secret service protections? What would they make him wear. So apparently his biggest concern is like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What’s the dress code here? Like, what am I dealing with? Is it gonna be an orange jumpsuit? Are they gonna like, put me in one of those old timey, you know, black and white striped outfits? Am I gonna have the little hat?

Like, what, what does it look like? I need to know what I’m gonna have to wear. What kind of shoes are they? Are they like standard issued tennis shoes? Are they crocs? Like, what’s going on here? with my potential prison sentence, noticeably missing from any of those questions is, how long of a sentence do you think I will have? Like Donald Trump is more worried about the logistics than the length of time. Like, is it gonna be a club fed? You know, maybe I get to leave for a couple hours every day. Is it gonna be a bad prison? Like, am I gonna have to bulk up out in the yard? Am I gonna have to beat up the biggest prisoner my first day in jail to assert my dominance? Like, how’s this work if I go to jail? And again, the reason this is so funny is because publicly Donald Trump is of course, attempting to project this image that I’m not worried about it. This is all hoopla. I’m not ever gonna get in trouble. I did nothing wrong. But behind the scenes, he is clearly asking his lawyers like, dude, what’s gonna happen to me? Where am I gonna go? Like, this is bad. I know how bad it is. And I understand

That the possibility of going to prison is in my future. That is what this story means. So every time we see Donald Trump out there, whether it’s with a post on truth social, whether it’s in one of these little fluffy interviews that he gets to do all the time or at a rally, and he says, oh, they’re coming after me. It’s a witch hunt. This is proof. He knows it’s not a witch hunt. He knows that there is a very real possibility that he gets convicted. And I mean, hell, if you just look at by the numbers 91 felony charges, the, the thought of him getting away with 91 felony charges, like that’s just not believable. The law of averages is gonna tell you if you get hit with 91 felony charges, you’re gonna be convicted on at least a couple of them. Maybe it’s smaller ones, right?

Maybe smaller ones where they’re like, Hey, 20 hours of community service as your overall sentence, go out there with a, you know, stick with a nail on the end of it and pick up trash along the highway. Maybe that’s all he gets. Maybe he gets decades in prison. We won’t know until all of these trials have concluded. But that’s why he has so many questions. He knows how much trouble he is facing. He knows there’s the possibility of prison. So no matter what he tells us in public, please remember that behind the scenes, he is a terrified, panicked, elderly man who is scared the death of going to jail.”

Elderly Republican Senator Threatens To Wear Bikini To Protest Senate Dress Code…

Date: September 24, 2023

“Republican Senator Susan Collins has threatened to come to the Senate floor wearing nothing but a bikini to protest the new relaxed dress code in the Senate. The 70-year old Senator made the threat on Tuesday, and as usual, didn’t follow through with her threat, much to the joy of everyone in America. But the fact that Republicans are more concerned about what people are wearing in the Senate than the fact that we’re barrelling towards a government shutdown tells you everything you need to know about politics today, as Farron Cousins explains.

We are witnessing a week long Republican meltdown in the United States Senate. All because Senate majority leader Chuck Schumer decided to relax the dress code. You would think based on the reaction from Republicans that Chuck Schumer had basically disbanded the Senate and said, we’re done with democracy in America. We’re now a dictatorship. That is effectively how Republicans are responding to this very simple rules change that, by the way, is archaic and stupid to begin with. So what happened obviously is that yes, Chuck Schumer has relaxed the dress code and everybody’s blaming John Fetterman. He likes to wear hoodies and basketball shorts, and that’s the worst thing in the world. I, I can think of a video that emerged recently of a Republican member of Congress that’s actually worse than John Fetterman wearing a hoodie. But you know, who am I? Right? Here’s the thing, and this is where things are starting to get a little gross.

We’ve got Republicans overreacting, of course, to this new rules change to the point where Republican senator Susan Collins of Maine actually threatened to wear a bikini. The 70 year old Susan Collins threatened to wear a bikini to the Senate floor. And luckily for the sake of everybody with eyeballs here in the United States, Collins as per usual, did not follow through on her, her statement, you know, that’s kind of her calling card is saying these things like, oh, I don’t like this person that we’ve nominated for the Supreme Court, but I’m gonna vote for him anyway. Oh, I’m troubled by this piece of legislation, but I’ll vote for it anyway. Oh, I’m gonna wear a bikini to the Senate floor and then thank God she didn’t do that. And she’s not the only one of course having a freak out, but she is the only one who threatened to wear a bikini Republican senator, Tommy Tuberville did not threaten to wear a bikini again, thank God. But he did threaten to wear his coaching attire to the floor of the Senate, because that’s all that old man has left. But he did add quote, um, it bothers me big time. You got people walking around in shorts that don’t fly with me, that don’t fly with me.

Cool. I like how you’re trying to use like younger lingo, except you pick like younger lingo from, you know, 30 years ago. So still a little outta date, but hey, you’re trying. Right? Then you of course had Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski from from Alaska who said this. I mean, it’s a respect thing. It’s like going to church in your jeans or going to a funeral in jeans. I’m not so hung up on things to think that every single day a man needs to wear a neck tie going to church in jeans. Uh, Lisa, I’m assuming you haven’t been to church in quite a while. I mean, not that I’m going either,

But, uh, you, you can drive pa I mean, we got churches on every street corner in the south down here. So, you know, I’m driving around on Sundays, you see people coming outta church and guess what? They’re all wearing jeans pretty much e even in the summer. So I don’t know what you’re talking about. It’s a respect thing. No, how about you idiot. Republicans respect our country by getting onto your party about one, how they behave in theaters. Two screaming profanities at each other on the house floor, and three, driving us straight towards a government shutdown. Folks, there’s a lot of problems in this country today. Far too many for me to even sit here and try to list them all. But let me assure you what our members of Congress are wearing on the floor or in the chambers or in the hallway is not on that list.

We have a government shutdown that is literally days away at this point. Republicans in the house can’t get their crap together. They can’t even agree to vote on a resolution to get their crap together. So we’re gonna lose millions of dollars. We’re gonna have thousands of workers furloughed, unsure how they’re gonna feed their families.”

Who cares?…Let her.

2 Librarians Fired After Republicans Mistake Autism Symbol For Pride Display…

Date: September 24, 2023

01) LINK


“Two librarians in Kansas were recently fired from the public library where they worked because Right Wing idiots became angry over an alleged pride display that they put in the library. But it wasn’t a pride display – It was an Autism Awareness symbol. Now the librarians are suing, and they have a rock solid case if ever such a thing existed. This incident also proves that it isn’t about the “content” of books, it is about the erasure of the entire LGBTQ community, as Farron Cousins explains.

*This transcript was auto-generated. Please excuse any typos.

Over the summer, two librarians working in a public library in the town of Sterling, Kansas were fired after a temporary summer worker complained to the library’s board that these two librarians, librarians by the name of Carrie Willie will, Carrie Wheeler and Brandy Lancaster, the temporary employee, complained that these two librarians had set up what she thought was a pride display. As she says, this was totally offensive. Offensive is the word that this temporary library worker used. She was offended because there was a rainbow. Well, turns out this was not an L G B T Q Pride display. This was actually an autism and neurodivergent awareness display set up with the infinity symbol with rainbow colors, which is typically a symbol used by neurodivergent people. And it featured the books in the display. Uh, you had Emma and mommy talk to God, the color purple Uncle Tom’s cabin separate is never equal wonder And to kill a Mockingbird and only the color purple out of all those books contains any L G B T Q content.

So this was not an L G B T Q Pride display, but this little staffer who wasn’t even a full-time worker, was only there for a couple weeks, became so offended by the thought of L G B T Q people that she filed a complaint that resulted in these two librarians getting fired. Let me read you this statement. Uh, well actually, here’s a quote. This is from L G B T Q Nation. Uh, on June 22nd splitter, a temporary summer library employee complained about the display to Lancaster saying she found the gay pride symbol offensive and going into an anti L G B T Ty, uh, diatribe, even though Lancaster explained that the infinity symbol represented neurodiversity and autism splitter then complained about the display to Michelle Miller, vice chair of the library board. Miller reportedly told Lancaster that she could get her fellow board members to have Lancaster take down the display.

And here’s what Miller, again, vice chair of the library board had to say, I’m totally fine with diversity of skin color display, just not represented with rainbow colors. I do not want any kind of rainbow display, especially in this month. We have a conservative town and as a library do not need to make political statements. I certainly do not want the library to promote L G B T Q agendas, but that’s not what they were doing. This was an autism and neurodivergent display that talked about inclusivity, like, and, and it actually said, we all think differently trying to show people

Because according to this report, both of the two librarians who were fired are neurodivergent. It’s just trying to show people like, Hey, we’re all different and it’s okay because we can all still be included. But this little summer employee said she was offended and then went into an anti L G B T Q tirade and the board was like, yeah, you make a good point. We’re very conservative. Let’s fire these people. Well, these two librarians have of course, now filed a lawsuit, um, and two other patrons of the library have filed a lawsuit along with them against these sterling Free Public library, the library’s board, the city and its mayor for allegedly violating their constitutional rights to free speech due process and equal protection, and for violating the Kansas Open Records Act.

This is a rock solid lawsuit because these women had their employment terminated over something that wasn’t true. This is a public library, by the way. This is not a school library.”
