Here’s what they don’t want you to say out loud: the loudest progressive communist democrat voices screaming about a dysfunctional President, a corrupt administration, and “protecting democracy” are the very ones undermining it behind closed doors.

From weaponizing federal agencies, silencing dissent, to media propagandists running coordinated media campaigns that distort, distract, and destroy political opponents, today’s progressive communist democrat elite behaves less like defenders of democracy and more like power-hungry authoritarians in disguise.

These aren’t your classic Democrat liberals of old. They’ve morphed into something more radical—communists pushing Marxist-style equity over merit, censoring opposing views in the name of “safety,” and labeling anyone who challenges them as “extremists,” “threatening,” “deniers,” or worse, racists and ‘phobes.

And their media propagandists in the legacy and social media? Far from being neutral, objective journalistic observers, they’ve become full-time defense attorneys and special pleaders for the progressive regime’s agenda. Every scandal that touches their side is minimized, reframed, or buried. Every Republican misstep—real or imagined—is magnified into a crisis.

Just look at how they handled real issues like:

• The Russia hoax: Breathlessly covered for years—debunked with a whisper.

• Hunter Biden’s laptop: “Disinformation,” they cried—until it wasn’t.

• Censorship on Big Tech platforms: Justified in the name of “safety from disinformation,” until it conveniently silenced dissent.

So, are they protecting democracy? Or protecting themselves?

What we’re seeing isn’t just partisanship. It’s a coordinated defense mechanism—an entrenched political class fighting like hell to hold onto its power, cover its corruption, and shut down anyone who dares to question the narrative.

Is the Trump White House Really That Chaotic—Or Is It Media Warfare by Another Name?

If you’ve spent any time watching cable news, scrolling through Truth Social, Twitter, or reading headlines from legacy media, you’ve likely encountered a steady stream of stories framing the Trump White House as uniquely corrupt, chaotic, and dangerous. But how much of that perception is rooted in actual dysfunction, and how much is a carefully curated narrative shaped by a hostile opposition and its allies in the media?

It’s a question worth asking, especially as public trust in both government institutions and the press continues to erode.

Take, for instance, a recent report in The Wall Street Journal titled “Economists Raise Questions About Quality of U.S. Inflation Data.” At first glance, this story has nothing to do with politics or partisanship—it’s about inflation reporting. Yet it uncovers a deeper issue that resonates across federal agencies: the quiet dysfunction of politicized government operations, often underreported unless it can be weaponized against a political figure like Trump.

According to the WSJ, staffing shortages at the Bureau of Labor Statistics have compromised the agency’s ability to collect accurate price data. As a result, the April inflation numbers—critical data that influences everything from interest rates to consumer confidence—were generated using broader estimations rather than hard data. There’s no suggestion of foul play, but the consequences of flawed information are still serious.

Now ask yourself: if this level of dysfunction had occurred under previous administrations, would the coverage have been the same? Or would it have been quietly downplayed, if written at all? Truthfully, the numbers were always a crapshoot based on imperfect surveys and quietly revised on a scheduled basis.

A Matter of Narrative, Not Just Facts

The Trump administration certainly has its share of internal conflict, impulsive “truths” and tweets, and unconventional approaches to diplomacy and negotiation. However, the degree to which every misstep is magnified should raise questions. From the Russia investigation to impeachment proceedings, from anonymous whistleblowers to leaked transcripts, every controversy was met with breathless reporting and social media hysteria, often before the full facts were known.

Meanwhile, blunders and failures within institutions perceived as “neutral” or Democrat-leaning often receive a fraction of the attention or are couched in sympathetic tones. Case in point: questionable Covid guidance from the CDC, missteps in the Afghanistan withdrawal, or the recent inflation data issues. All real problems. All quietly downplayed.

Captive Media, Captive Minds?

Social media platforms—designed to prioritize engagement over accuracy—have played a pivotal role in shaping public perception. Algorithms reward outrage. Legacy media, increasingly dependent on these platforms for distribution, must compete in the same attention economy, creating a malignant feedback loop where antagonism, not accuracy, drives coverage.

In that ecosystem, Trump didn’t just have to battle Democrats. He had to fight the narrative-making machinery itself.

And let’s not forget the rise of “fact-checking” organizations, many of which have been caught applying double standards. When misinformation or poor governance emerges from “the other side,” the scrutiny is often less severe, the headlines less harsh, the consequences less dire.

Bottom Line

This isn’t to suggest Trump’s presidency was without controversy or fault.

But it’s fair to ask: How much of the chaos was real, and how much was reaction? Did Trump create dysfunction, or did he inherit and expose it in institutions that had long been broken? Did he stoke division or become the lightning rod for a media-political complex uncomfortable with its loss of narrative control?

When the progressive communist democrat-captured media question the reliability of government inflation data, it barely makes a ripple. Yet, every Trump misspoken word could set off a firestorm, something is off balance.

Maybe the real story isn’t just about Trump.

Maybe it’s about trust in our institutions that have been corrupted by progressive communist democrats and their media propagandists.

We are so screwed.
