Yesterday I didn’t do a good job of explaining that for weeks now, I’ve detected articles bubbling up in the MSM sites that I think could be introducing topics slowly to the masses (or the few that actually watch them.) While I don’t want to give them any of my traffic, I have been watching off and on to try to gauge if Q and team have enabled articles to get published - articles with content that never would have seen the light of day just months ago. The Armie Hammer article yesterday in the Daily Mail was a good example – cannibalism and pictures of young girls on his bed that couldn’t be traced as models to the fashion show? Seeds are planted.

The other trend I’m starting to spot is that articles seem to emphasize that conservatives are getting different treatment based upon their beliefs. Months ago, the articles and titles were written more subtly – now, to me, they seem more in your face.

Anyway, I browsed around online news sites at dinner last night, running things by my husband. I was on my phone and didn’t save links (lesson learned) but I did see one article that (for them) described QAnon pretty accurately – the first time ever. I read it to him and he was shocked too. Of course, now I can’t find it! I also heard a Verizon ad on the TV (football game! Don’t judge me – watched on antenna so they didn’t get revenue!) that mentioned time travel. My ears immediately pricked up on that one.

Before I get into the news articles, last night during the Buccaneers/Saints game, Apple had a Mac ad. It started with Tom Hanks and had some imagery that I found jarring. Again, I suck at symbolism and I know Apple ads are edgy. So I went to find it this morning. I can only find one and Tom Hanks has been stripped from the beginning!?! You can definitely tell it’s been edited out – ad starts abruptly… https://youtu.be/mAjGNTrtbz4

So here is a highlight of today’s weirdness in the outside world:

Representative Majorie Taylor Greene has had her personal Twitter account suspended because her post about the election fraud in Georgia, calling out the election officials, may “incite violence”. (She of course also has racist views and has supported that QAnon conspiracy.) https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory/twitter-suspends-us-congresswoman-election-fraud-claims-75314711?cid=clicksource_4380645_11_heads_posts_headlines_hed

China may still have leverage over Congressman Eric Swalwell still. (Ya think? But notice the narrative shift!) https://www.foxnews.com/media/china-swalwell-spy-leverage-fang-fang-gordon-chang

Biden and team are telling a newly-formed caravan team NOT to head to the US, despite promising to turn over Trump’s immigration rules. Rules will not be overturned overnight! https://www.foxnews.com/media/biden-caravan-immigration-mexico-border-biden-administration

An extensive article and video about the Inauguration – the video starts with JFK! Except it never states where the inauguration will be held? We are 52 hours from inauguration and we still don’t know??? But no spectators in DC are welcome. (Note: I saw Muriel Bowser interview on local Fox channel last night and she was definitely green screened. Blurry video on shoulder edges.) https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/joe-bidens-inauguration-watch/story?id=75257436&cid=clicksource_4380645_8_three_posts_card_hed

Rudy Guiliani won’t be on President’s impeachment defense legal team! Because he gave a speech during the Jan 6 rally and thus is a witness! As someone pointed out in yesterday’s post, the MSM has been attacking him every day… https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/live-updates/2020-election-transition-trump-biden-impeachment/?id=75166132&cid=clicksource_4380645_6_heads_hero_live_hero_hed

U.S. has “screaming level” of Covid-19 transmission! Yes, that phrase is in the article’s title!!! (Covid, Covid – we are all going to die!) https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/18/health/us-coronavirus-monday/index.html

President Trump is preparing 100 pardons and commutations for Tuesday. (Watch people’s heads explode with Julian Assange?) Daily Mail’s version was much more colorful. The pictures of moving vans caught my eye. I know from being at the 2017 inauguration that the moving vans are used on Inauguration day. Not before. Assuming they are at the White House and not at the Executive Building… https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/17/politics/trump-pardons-expected/index.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/ushome/index.html

FBI now vetting all National Guard troops in DC due to fear of insider attack. Uh huh. They all have security clearances – they’ve already been vetted! Article on multiple sites but Daily Mail wins for the most colorful version! https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9158361/FBI-vetting-Guard-troops-DC-amid-fears-insider-attack.html

Healthcare worker cops to taking Nancy Pelosi laptop. But video shows her urging and directing people into Capitol??? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9158361/FBI-vetting-Guard-troops-DC-amid-fears-insider-attack.html

I have to admit I really am starting to like Daily Mail’s flair for news. Much more interesting than our lame ABC/NBC/CBS/CNN sites!
