Corporate Media Must Stop Sanewashing Trump's Cabinet Picks
None of this is normal
I know a lot of us have stopped watching and reading corporate news. After all, they’ve spent the last 8 years sanewashing Trump, undermining Democrats, and printing endless volumes of bogus headlines and misleading articles.
When I look around at the different news orgs, it feels like they are living in a totally different reality. A world where Project 2025 isn’t that bad, and where frauds are treated like viable picks for cabinet posts.
Like MSNBC, who just ran the headline: “There's a reason so many Americans trust RFK Jr. and Dr. Oz,” but gave no numbers to back this claim up. The God-awful National Review wrote: “Pete Hegseth Is a Disruptive Choice for Secretary of Defense. That’s a Good Thing.” What planet are they living on?
NY Times, MSNBC, AP, Newsweek, and just about every other Press outlet celebrated Trump’s “complete” cabinet—even though we’re months away from any formal confirmations. And most of the nominees are dangerous, unqualified sycophants.
Then there was this trash from CBS News: “Poll finds Trump starts on positive note as most approve of transition handling.” Is that a joke? Because it’s not funny.
Having multiple cabinet nominees who are facing credible sexual assault claims is not normal. Bypassing FBI background checks for cabinet posts is not normal. None of this is normal.
The Press needs to focus on Trump hiring the nutjobs behind Project 2025, and also where his transition money is coming from. Or how Donald is still refusing to sign his transition paperwork, and trying to bypass FBI background checks for his nominees.
News orgs are too busy pumping out a pro-Trump narrative, to appease their sponsors and overlords. It’s pathetic.
This is why our Watchdog Coalition is hard at work over the holidays, holding corporate media accountable, and fighting back against Trump and his cult members at a constant.
In the last two weeks, we’ve sent more than 35,000 letters, and made countless calls to Congress—demanding they reject Hegseth, Kennedy, Gabbard, “Dr.” Oz, Noem, and any recess appointments. We also led the charge to oust Matt Gaetz as the AG pick, sending more than 5,000 letters from constituents to their Senators in just one week.
With one of the largest social media networks in politics, we’re pushing unmatched messaging campaigns to rally The Resistance for the road ahead. And I want you to be a part of it all—because together, we are unstoppable.
