Trump Releases List of “Unreported” Terror Attacks, Many of Which Were Front Page News

And it’s full of misspelled words
Politics • Views: 41,920

Well, today’s craziest blatant fear-mongering lie from Donald Trump and his gang of hapless clowns is that the media are deliberately failing to cover numerous terror attacks. (An accusation that may have come directly from Alex Jones.)

When Trump spokeshole Baghdad Sean Spicer was confronted about this ridiculous claim from our so-called president, he doubled down (of course) and promised to provide a list of all the attacks the media has failed to cover.

And now we have that list, although they’ve moved the goalposts and are now saying these attacks weren’t covered enough. (Click the Images button for full size images.)

Check through the list, and you’ll find numerous terror attacks that weren’t just “covered” by media — they were front-page news, exhaustively reported from every angle. Nice, Paris, San Bernardino, Garland Texas, etc. And they include a bunch of attacks that seem to be just random murders with no obvious connection to terrorism.

But to make it even more absurd, about halfway through they start misspelling the word “attacker” over and over (22 times!), and “San Bernardino” is missing its second R.

One attack didn’t make the list for some reason, though: the attack by a Donald Trump fan on a mosque in Quebec that killed six people.

I’d be willing to bet, without checking, that a lot of the more obscure items on this list are lifted from garbage far right anti-Muslim blogs like Jihad Watch, Pamela Geller and Gateway Pundit.

Let us not lose sight of the way the goalposts have already been moved.

Trump said there were attacks that were not covered by the media.

His lackeys have provided a list of attacks that were, in their opinion, not covered enough.

That seems like a massive difference to me.

The narrative that is being pushed is pretty evident: The world is awash in Islamic terrorism, there’s attacks virtually every day that go unreported because of a pro-terrorism press, and the non-ban ban and other draconian measures are meant to “protect” America from this oncoming storm.

Or, in other words, it’s the same sort of strategy that the Nazi Party excelled at, presenting an all-encompassing horror that only Hitler could protect Germany from and his critics were in the service of that horror.

Yeah, I a downer, but—the list isn’t meant to function as a list.

It’s meant to be a conversation-ender. It’s a quotable figure plus a set with vague parameters (not covered “enough? wouldn’t it take just a bit more time to exclude the ones that were front page) and impressions (the admin feels weren’t covered enough)—how much coverage is enough?

This is bullshit. Catchy bullshit that can be thrown at people who are skeptical, putting the burden of time and effort to debunk on them…and that long teasing-out process of determining what it all means is lengethy, rigorous, and lacks pizzazz.

Note to RWNJs: Your ignorance and poor recall are not someone else’s conspiracy.

Like his friend Alex Jones, tRump knows how to manipulate the ignorant masses. A vast amount of information is available every day. Nobody can absorb all of it. Smart people know how to sort it by importance. Stupid people do not, so they miss a lot. Jones and Trump come along and tell them that they are not ignorant because they are stupid, but because there is a conspiracy of suppression. They eat it up. This is also why Jones and other conspira-liars seldom lose adherents when their dire predictions don’t pan out. Their fans literally don’t remember. Jade Helm anyone?

There’s so much to unpack here. Typos. Random attacks, including those in the US and suspiciously there’s a number of attacks in the US where the perpetrators aren’t known.

Really? They aren’t known?

That’s just lazy. Or it is that anyone using Google would have revealed just how widespread the coverage was. Like the Merced stabbing attack in November 2015. US perpetrator? It happened in the US. The suspect was killed by law enforcement and identified. Faisal Mohammad.

And by identifying the perps, you would undermine the claim that these weren’t widely covered. 100s, no 1000s of stories. Front page coverage. Lead on nightly news. Breaking news. All of it.

Reality is that there are some terror attacks overseas that are underreported in the US especially when they don’t involve US citizens, but they get wide coverage elsewhere. Curiously, the Quebec City attack was left off (or not, because it was a right wing loon.

Trump might have gotten a PDB that cites terrorism overseas and he wonders why there were so many threats/terror groups, and then goes with this absurd nonsense.

And that’s odd, since there have been several notable attacks in Israel in past two years. In fact, there was just one such attack against a number of Israeli soldiers at a bus stop.

Heck, there was a suicide bombing on a bus in 2016 too. Not on the list.

Also, on some, there are names, some just country of origin. Aside from the whackadoodle premise of the whole exercise, I’d like to know the genesis of this “list.”

It’s a club, meant to be rolled up and used to beat in the heads of anybody who suggests that “Radical Islamic Terrorism” isn’t a threat justifying the draconian measures Trump is pushing. Every great lie has a hint of truth and that is what this list is. Because there will be enough people who consume their daily news in bite-sized chunks who will look at this list, look at the size of it, and declare “Terrorism is a major problem!”

Wolf Street: Why Corporate America Has Conniptions about Trump’s H-1B Visa Reform

What is happening time and again is that tech companies or IT departments at non-tech companies are laying off Americans and replace them with H-1B workers, often requiring the to-be-laid-off Americans to train their foreign successors. This is proof that the verbiage about not being able find Americans to do those jobs is just a pretext.

Some of these abuses of the H-1B visa program have become tangled up in Congressional investigations, including this one:

Southern California Edison, a utility, decided to lay off people in its IT Department, which had 1,800 employees and 1,500 contract workers at the time. As is typically the case, the Americans, who had to train their replacement H-1B visa holders from India, had to sign severance agreements with confidentiality and non-disparagement clauses that bar them from discussing the situation in public.

The scandal spilled into the open in 2015 when some of these affected employees talked to Computerworld. SCE then confirmed having hired Infosys and Tata Consultancy Services in India, two of the largest users of H-1B visas, to provide the H1-B workers [In Search of Cheap Labor in Tech: Behind the H1-B Visa Scenes].

…

So now “tech” companies and companies with IT departments are fretting that a reform of the H-1B visa program might put some additional limits on the cheap-labor gravy train. The leaked draft of the executive order (image) included references to reforming the H-1B visa program to “ensure that beneficiaries of the program are the best and the brightest.”

Few people would have difficulties seeing the benefits of truly great minds coming to the US to do their magic. But there are not many of them. Yet this is constantly trotted out by tech employers as the reason to propagate the abuses of the H-1B visa program.

But even desperately needed reforms of the H-1B program still would not stop the outsourcing of IT jobs to cheap-labor countries - which is “the endgame,” Sara Blackwell told the Times. She is a lawyer representing former employees of Disney, Abbott Labs, and other companies in discrimination claims concerning tech-job outsourcing. It’s just too hard for corporations to resist the lure of cheap labor.

I think that there are still some folks out there who think that the GOP is far more ethical than the Democrats. These are the same folks who believe the GOP has been too soft on the Democrats, and that the Democrats have run roughshod over them.

Reinforces the fact that Trump has no sense of humor and has surrounded himself with like minded sociopaths.

DJT was on SNL not many years back. In one scene, DJT was on one side of a “mirror” with an SNL regular (as Trump) on the other. SNL could do something like that again —absent DJT, of course.

Before the wingers start screaming NOT APPLES TO APPLES—THAT 2009 INTERVIEW WAS WITH MATT LAUER ON NBC:

President Obama’s first pre-Super Bowl interview, with NBC’s Matt Lauer in 2009, brought in an average audience of 21.9 million viewers in Nielsen’s final accounting. The half-hour of 2011’s Super Bowl pre-game coverage — which included O’Reilly’s highly anticipated interview with Obama — attracted an average audience of 17.3 million. In 2016, Obama’s interview drew 14.9 million; in 2015, 16.4 million; in 2014, 18 million.

BoingBoing: Romania’s anti-corruption protests are massive, growing, and they’re playful and serious at once

When the government of Romanian PM Sorin Grindeanu announced that they would gut the country’s anticorruption statutes, removing criminal sanctions for official corruption, the country erupted into mass protests.

The Romanian public saw Grindeanu protecting dozens of members of his own government who are facing a corruption investigation, changing the law so that they could escape prison for selling the country out. Hundreds of thousands of protesters flooded to the streets in 70 cities, eventually winning a reversal in the policy.

Protesters are still massing, demanding Grindeanu’s resignation.

These are the biggest protests since the fall of the Stalinist dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu in 1989, and the movement has developed a style that is familiar to anti-establishment protests around the world, from the Bulgarian and Polish MPs who sported Guy Fawkes masks during key ACTA votes to the meme-friendly signs of the Women’s March to Bernie Sanders waving a giant, printed Trump-tweet on the Senate floor to all the deplorable Pepes.

But as is often the case with Romanian culture, there is a unique, multicultural, polyglot character to Romanian protests, which Henry Rammelt writes well about in Euronews.

After hearing about Kanye’s trip to Trump Tower, I began thinking Trump asked K there to ask him to appear at his inaugural ceremonies, and K turned him down. Not because K necessarily disagrees with Trump’s political positions but because he didn’t want to deal with the social media blowback he’d get. I also think he stopped long enough to think about the possibility of a financial hit against him. As far as I’m concerned, his name was mud the instant he set foot in Trump Tower to meet with the vulgar, talking yam. I didn’t like him much before then, but after he did that, he was moved to a higher position on my sh*t list.

This is all spinning out of control, isn’t it? Trump’s team has nominated 36 out of the 700 political appointees that need to be nominated and appointed by Congress.

Only four of his noms have been confirmed. The worst record of any elected President as of February 6th.

But the transition team was the best ever!

Jesus that’s bad. They’ll of course blame Dems but as you get at, only 36 nominee out of 700. I think Trump had/has no idea how extensive this is. He’s clearly in over his head. Yet another reason not to elect an “outsider” who just talks shit.

Ha yeah. As I said about Milo, the solution is to mock him. Kate McKinnon if they ever lampoon him?

Yeah I think Mckinnon would be great doing Milo.

Yeah it would be funny. I don’t know what kind of skit you’d do since unlike Spicer and Bannon, he’s not officially a part of the administration. As I said though, the best solution for these bastards is mockery not anger. We know how much Trump loathes Baldwin’s impression of him.

OMG…Rosie as Bannon exerting control over Trump.

The meltdown would be spectacular….

I had this issue the other day on my Letter to Paul Ryan page.

Make sure you have the “Meta” tag clicked on in your image. You can click on the “Meta” setting when you view your Image Library in the Page Editing box. Then make sure “Meta Image” is showing in the Page Editing Box…it is just below the text entry area on the bottom right. If you see it checked, you are good to go.

Yay—thank you—thank you—it worked!
