Cop Served In The Killing Of Patrick Lyoya!

Cop charged with murder of Patrick Lyoya.

Patrick Lyoya, a refugee from the Democratic Republic of the Congo living and working in the city of Grand Rapids, Michigan was shot by a cop after a routine traffic stop turned into deadly encounter.

The cop who shot him is facing a second-degree murder charge and if found guilty, he could face LIFE in the iron college with a small possibility of graduation within a period determined. The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

The dirty cop is Christopher Schurr. He worked for the Grand Rapids Police for at least seven years. He was considered a strict by the book type. He was easily angered with some questioning his temperament being suitable as a member of the Grand Rapids Police Department.

He was iced after the investigation determined that his traffic stop was unjustified. Oh, hell fucking yeah.

This cop shot Patrick in the back of his head with his service weapon. 

Tensions been high in the city. The last time, I can recall talking about Grand Rapids was the police encounter where cops pulled up on Black teenagers guns drawn. This happened more than once in this city. The city population is 203,000.

Cop shot a man in the back of his head.

There's been numerous encounters of police engaging forcible behavior with Black and Brown citizens.

Kent County Prosecutor Chris Becker said his office on Thursday filed the charge — the most serious one possible in this case — against Officer Christopher Schurr.

Becker said Schurr turned himself in. Online records showed he was in the Calhoun County jail in Battle Creek, which the Calhoun County sheriff noted was a “common practice” in cases where a defendant works for the jurisdiction in which he was arrested. Arraignment was scheduled for Friday, though Becker didn’t know exactly what time.

Grand Rapids Police Department Chief Eric Winstrom said he was recommending that Schurr be immediately suspended without pay pending termination.

Becker made his decision public in an about 15-minute news conference Thursday afternoon at Michigan State Police Sixth District Headquarters in Walker. He said he told the GRPD chief about it Wednesday.

Becker spoke with the Lyoya family over the phone just minutes before his news conference. The prosecutor said he also sent them a letter, written in their native Swahili, about his decision.

“They said, ‘Thank you.’ It was a very brief phone call,” he said.

A traffic stop turned deadly for Patrick Lyoya.

He thanked the Lyoya family for “their tremendous patience and understanding as this process has developed.” He spoke of the “emotions they must be going through. I deeply appreciate what they’ve done… their calls for peace and calm.”

A first-degree murder charge would have required premeditation, which Becker said didn’t apply in this case. The elements of second-degree murder require that there was a death, that the death was intentional and that it could not be justified by self-defense. If convicted, Schurr, 31, of Grandville, faces up to life in prison with the possibility of parole.

“I wouldn’t charge if I didn’t think I could prove it,” Becker said.

Becker said his office eyed a lesser manslaughter charge, which a jury could consider. He said manslaughter would have called for a “heat of passion” element that he didn’t see in the case. 

Manslaughter would be punishable by up to 15 years in prison.

The call number to the U.S. Capitol is now going to be used. This is the official phone number, 202-224-3121. Let them know that "thoughts and prayers," "hearts going to" and "good guys with guns" are no longer acceptable and you want legislation to curb gun violence.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES.

"Softball" Hannity Softball!

Softball Hannity was the star of Jan. 6 Committee.

The Jan. 6 Committee hearing was watched on most mainstream and cable networks expect Fox. The network covered it only to trash the committee, blame House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and complain about crime in Democratic-leaning cities.

Softball Hannity, the most annoying media personality in the fucking world was mentioned by House Select Committee member, Rep. Karen Cheney (R-WY). She and Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS) detailed never before seen footage and evidence that points the finger squarely at Washed Up 45.

In a series of text messages, Softball Hannity and Karen McEneny, former White House press secretary were considering the possibility of the 25th Amendment. Both agitators work for Fox.

In the texts, Hannity recaps just a few points of a broader communications plan for responding to the attack, among other pieces of advice.

“1- No more stolen election talk,” Hannity reportedly texted McEnany, who herself sat down with committee investigators last week after being subpoenaed.

Per the letter, he continued, “2- Yes, impeachment and the 25th amendment are real and many people will quit…”

This is not a game.

McEnany reportedly responded “Love that. Thank you. That is the playbook. I will help reinforce…,” though it is unclear what else she may have said.

In another partial exchange relayed by the committee, Hannity said it was “key” to keep the Washed Up 45 away from certain people, writing, “No more crazy people,” to which McEnany responded, “Yes, 100%.”

Fox did not immediately respond to request for comment, nor did an attorney for Hannity.

The committee earlier this month asked Hannity to voluntarily sit down with the committee, a similar outreach to the request for cooperation made to Washed Up Ivanka on Thursday.

Hannity’s texts have surfaced at various points in the committee’s investigation, including those he sent to then-White House chief of staff Karen Meadows during the attack, in which Hannity pleaded for Meadows to have the Washed Up 45 intervene in the unfolding event, as well as other messages dealing with strategy.

The letter the panel sent to the Fox News host also indicated he spoke to the former president around Jan. 10, looking ahead to Biden’s inauguration.

“Guys, we have a clear path to land the plane in 9 days. He can’t mention the election again. Ever. I did not have a good call with him today. And worse, I’m not sure what is left to do or say, and I don’t like not knowing if it’s truly understood. Ideas?” Hannity wrote, per the panel.

Feds Arrest GOP Candidate Involved In Jan. 6!

Republican candidate for governor arrested.

It seems like you can't get away with a criminal act, unless you're rich and powerful.

Many of these idiots who stormed the U.S. Capitol are not rich or well established.

Some can't afford the bill they'll be getting after ransacking the Capitol, attacking police and destroying valuable artifacts totaling over $1 billion.

The Republican candidate for governor in Michigan was arrested by the FBI on Thursday and charged with misdemeanors for his role in the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021, the agency said.

Federal agents raided Karen Kelley's home in Allendale, Michigan, on Thursday morning. NBC News received a tip about the raid, which was confirmed by a law enforcement official.

An FBI spokesperson later confirmed that a search warrant was executed at the home where Kelley, 40, was arrested. He faces four charges related to his alleged actions at the Capitol, including disorderly conduct and willfully injuring or attacking U.S. property, according to the criminal complaint.

The FBI said it had received multiple tips about Kelley's presence at the Capitol on Jan. 6, and a bureau source also identified him as one of the people seen at the siege.

How's the weather?

Kelley in the past has acknowledged having been in Washington for the protests that preceded the deadly riot by supporters of Washed Up 45. But he said he never entered the Capitol.

A local sheriff’s deputy and an Allendale official, who both know Kelley, have identified him in photos from the riot, the FBI said.

A statement from an FBI special agent, released Thursday by Justice Department officials, includes and describes video and other images that indicate Kelley was involved in breaching the Capitol and directing others to participate.

"At approximately 2:20 p.m., Kelley continued to gesture to the crowd, consistently indicating that they should move towards the stairs that led to the entrance of the U.S. Capitol interior spaces," the agent states.

Kelley's arrest comes as the House committee investigating the deadly Jan. 6 riot prepares for its first public hearing Thursday night. And it follows the disqualifications of at least two other leading GOP candidates for governor in Michigan, including front-runner Karen Craig, after they turned in allegedly fraudulent signatures to qualify for the August primary.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Somebody Nick This Dude!

Is this what women want to be impregnated by?

Are these women stupid or just willing to be impregnated by a celebrity? 

He is not A-list celebrity. It is ridiculous that this man is willing to impregnate women just for no fucking reason. It was became career suicide for Mariah Carey and certainly every other woman who slept with Nick Cannon.

Cannon's behavior is ridiculous.

Cannon is expecting his 9th child with Abby De La Rosa. The news comes as he is still expecting his 8th child with Bre Tiese.

Cannon has 6 living children after losing his 7th child Zen from a brain tumor at just 5 months old in December 2021. Zen’s mother was Alyssa Scott. The next month Tiesi and Cannon announced they were expecting a baby boy with a gender reveal.

The talk show host also shares twins Moroccan and Monroe,10, with his ex-wife Mariah Carey. He is also the father of son Golden, 4, and daughter Powerful Queen, 10 months with Brittany Bell.

You know we condemned Eddie Murphy, Bobby Brown, Pepa Wemba, Young Thug, Chief Keef, Future, the late Ol' Dirty Bastard, the late Shawty Lo and the late DMX for having so many children and not doing much other keeping it running.

The Jan. 6 Committee Primetime!

Republicans wish this could go away. Unfortunately, this is history and they're on the wrong side.

Every network except Fox "News" is covering televised hearings of the Jan. 6 Committee.

Republicans are complaining that the nation doesn't need distractions. They want the Democrats and President Joe Biden to focus on the economy and inflation. Yet, they offer no solutions other than complaints and pivoting.

The Jan. 6 Committee will reveal new information and have new witnesses who will discuss how Washed Up 45 and his allies gathered together on that infamous day to oppose the certification of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, as President and Vice President. 

Washed Up 45, a handful of Republicans kept the charade going all the way until the attack.

The televised event will start at 8pm. It will be seen on ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, NPR, CNN, MSNBC, NewsNation, YouTube and Facebook Watch.

I am going to be short and sweet with this.

The footage presented tonight will have graphic violence. You will see the unedited incidents that led to over 150 police officers being injured, four insurrectionists dying and many arrests of people who bought into a lie and ruined their lives.

Most of these idiots don't have enough money to pay for the damages. Many of them had decent jobs and careers at some point. Some of these idiots were tied to extremism.

Washed Up 45 will be regarded as the sole responsibility for the seditious act upon American democracy.

Terrorist Threatened Kavanaugh!

Kavanaugh had an attempt on his life.

The Republicans want us to protect Americans. Certain Americans though.

Instead of working on saving American lives by passing gun reform laws, these morons in the House and Senate are focused on an extremist threatening the life of the controversial Supreme Court justice Karen Kavanaugh.

The call number to the U.S. Capitol is now going to be used. This is the official phone number, 202-224-3121. Let them know that "thoughts and prayers," "hearts going to" and "good guys with guns" are no longer acceptable and you want legislation to curb gun violence.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES.

You would think they cared about the many threats that Ruth Bader Ginsburg gotten before her passing. The relentless noise about her looks, her age, wishing she would die after she announced she had cancer.

Hell, the Republicans denied Barack Obama his third Supreme Court nominee because he won two terms, got a Nobel Peace Prize and was a better leader than the guy who succeeded him. 

Washed Up 45's most controversial pick for the Supreme Court was accused of sexually assaulting Dr. Christine Blaise Ford and he tearfully denied that ever occurred. The Republicans ignored the accuser and went forth with confirming him to the court.

He along with the five other far-right members of the Court are about to strike down Roe v. Wade and handout victories to the conservative agenda.

The U.S. Marshals are protecting Supreme Court Justices.

With the release of a memo by Karen Alito's decision to attack Roe v. Wade, women rights' groups and medical providers are furious. They believe that the Court is trying to turnover a decision that has been settled for nearly 50 years.

Some white terrorist from California traveled to Maryland to kidnap and/or murder Kavanaugh. 

The U.S. Justice Department confirmed that the terrorist was arrested. Merrick Garland, the former federal judge who was nominated by Obama to replace Antonin Scalia is now President Joe Biden's Attorney General. He confirmed that justice was in no danger. 

On Wednesday, Garland said that "threats of violence and actual violence against" Supreme Court justices "strike at the heart of our democracy and we will do everything we can to prevent them and to hold people who do them accountable."

The terrorist was upset that Roe v. Wade is possibly getting overturned, gun laws are going to likely be relaxed and a whole bunch of issues being decided on that could impact the country. He allegedly had second thoughts about carrying out the attack and called the law on himself. When he was caught, they found his weapons, a bottle of booze and a man who said he wasn't "thinking clearly."

The U.S. Marshals are protecting him, Idiot Karen Barrett, Karen Alito, Karen Gorsuch, Karen Thomas, Stephen Breyer, Elena Kagan, Sonia Sotomayor, justice-designate Ketanji Brown Jackson and Chief Justice Karen Roberts.

The Justices have gotten earfuls from activists. The far-right ones are the ones who are getting the bulk of it because they said in their confirmation hearings that many of the settled issues are off the table.

Now you should have known better that they lie through their teeth. They're politicians.

Anyway, we have to get real here. The Republicans are fumed about it. Fox is fumed about it. 

They are calling on lawmakers to pass legislation to make the person who leaks memos of the Supreme Court a felony and classifying threats against federal judges a punishable offense for more than 20 years.

Yet, they won't vote on gun violence measures like an assault weapons ban. They won't support an investigation into Abbott for the delay in baby formula. They won't support tax incentives for people who buy electric cars. They won't support investigating energy and oil companies for exploiting consumers when the demand is down. They will not fund healthcare for veterans. They will not support any measures to help the working class get a better paycheck.

All they do is complain about inflation, crime and partisan gridlock. All caused by their own actions.

The House has passed the Protect Our Kids Act on a partisan vote. Five Republicans joined the Democrats in passing this. Only two Democrats joined the Republicans in opposing this.

The Republicans refusal to deal with gun violence and inflation should be a reason to why it's important to vote this Midterm.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Oh by the way, a man who owns The Smuggler's Inn in Blaine, Washington which sits directly on the U.S.-Canadian border lost his bid to sue the U.S. Border Patrol. He was injured by a border patrol agent when they went into his business to search for illegal border crossing. The Court ruled in 6-3 that the U.S. government can search homes without warrants and not be held accountable for damages. Also, they can travel at least 100 miles to check homes if they get tipped or notified of possible human smuggling of immigrants.

If You Don't Do Something.... We All Gonna Die!

Do you think Republicans will be swayed by a 11-year old gun violence survivor?

The House of Representatives and Senate held hearings to discuss the proposals laid out to curbing gun violence. 

In the hearings, you heard from an actor, a former fire commissioner and a 11-year old girl. Each of their lives were affected by gun violence and they are urging Congress (I meant Republicans) to stop pandering and pass proposals to save lives.

The Republicans are like "tone deaf" when it comes to gun violence, women's rights, LGBTQ rights, voting rights, civil rights and science. They are just constantly opposing everything so they can win back power.

They offer no solutions to inflation, rising gas prices, gun violence, climate change and extremism.

They are festering in it. Obviously, Fox and the Republicans are tuning out the Jan. 6 committee findings on major networks, CNN, MSNBC, PBS, NPR and CSPAN.

Listen to the testimony of 11-year old Miah Cerrillo. She is traumatized for life. She was the young girl who had to smear her dead friend's blood on her to keep her out of the line of crossfire.

The Uvalde terrorist blew everyone's faces off with an AR-15 style weapon. She testified to Congress stating that she "never wants to re-live that experience again." She as well as many others are calling on Congress (I meant Republicans) to pass gun reform.

Republicans in the House and Senate are signalling they're not willing to ban assault weapons. They said they're willing to possibly raise the age to purchase firearms to 21. They want to strengthen schools but offer the lamest examples to deal with it. From having more armed guards, arming teachers, one point entries, more bulletproof glass, stop access doors, holding teachers responsible for leaving doors open, holding teachers responsible for teaching critical race theory or LGBTQ rights in the classroom are what Republicans believe are the key solutions to gun violence. Hell, I might as well say prayers because these morons want to pray and ban marijuana. 

Obviously, we will see how Congress (I meant Republicans) will vote on this bipartisan legislation.

Republicans are hoping that this will die down and then they can move back to culture wars and blaming Biden for a worldwide inflation crisis.

Mind you, in Ohio, most gas stations are ranging from $4.999 to $5.299 on regular. For diesel, $5.99 to $6.599. 

With all these issues, what's more important?

Saving your life or saving your wallet? 

The call number to the U.S. Capitol is now going to be used. This is the official phone number, 202-224-3121. Let them know that "thoughts and prayers," "hearts going to" and "good guys with guns" are no longer acceptable and you want legislation to curb gun violence.

Simiso Buthelezi Passed Away!

Simiso Buthelezi passed away from blunt force trauma.

Lightweight boxer Simiso Buthelezi passed away. He died in a South African hospital from bleeding on the brain and a systemic stroke.

Buthelezi had reportedly been the aggressor for much of the fight. He pressured his opponent, Siphesihle Mntungwa, through the ropes with just seconds left in their 10-rounder, the SABC TV footage showed. 

But when the referee intervened, Buthelezi became confused and began punching at air, in the opposite direction of his adversary.

BE WARNED DISTURBING VIDEO.

The lightweight boxer had been contesting for the WBF All Africa lightweight title when he became disoriented in the ring, and was rushed to hospital. He was placed into a coma at 11pm on Sunday.

BSA released a statement on Wednesday: "It is with great sadness for Boxing South Africa and the Buthelezi family to announce the passing away of Mr Simiso Buthelezi, who passed away last night on 7 June in hospital in Durban.

"Towards the end of his bout, Mr Buthelezi collapsed and was taken to hospital and it was discovered that he suffered a brain injury which resulted in internal bleeding. At the hospital, Mr Buthelezi was given the best care possible but he succumbed to the injury."

It is unclear how he suffered the injury as he had taken no heavy blows to the head during the fight, and his trainer told media that Buthelezi had been in perfect health before the bout.

Trainer Bheki Mngomezulu said on Monday, per News24: "There wasn't anything untoward in the fight and in training. He was leading the fight on points before the unfortunate incident occurred.

"I really can't explain what happened, to be honest. It was bewildering, but in his training and in the build-up to the fight, there was nothing untoward with regards to his condition. He was in good nick before the fight."

BSA added that they would be launching an independent medical review of the incident, which caught the attention of the world's boxing media due to the bewildering nature of his symptoms in the ring.

Buthelezi was in the final minute of a 10-round bout against Siphesihle Mntungwa when he went on the attack, and his opponent stumbled backwards between the ropes.

Buthelezi, untouched for most of the bout, then turned his back on Mntungwa and began to shadow box towards the corner of the ring, at which point referee Elroy Marshall quickly called the fight off and called for the medics.

Ring announcer Sipho Mashego told ESPN that Buthelezi had been in full control of the fight, and that the arena was 'dumbfounded' by Buthelezi's sudden change in demeanour: "Simiso was dictating terms, he was actually controlling the fight from round one. He didn't take any punishment from his opponent.

"But this was the last round, with 14 seconds to go, and his opponent fell out of the ring. [Buthelezi] then started swinging wildly, and no-one understood what was going on. It was bizarre."

Buthelezi, who had recently graduated university with a degree in botany and zoology, was 24.

San Francisco Voters Recall Controversial District Attorney!

Too toxic.

In one of the most historical votes in San Francisco history, the San Francisco city and county District Attorney, Chesa Boudin will be recalled. The voters had voted to remove the progressive district attorney because he allowed criminal activity run rampant in the country's most liberal city.

The City and County of San Francisco includes the city which sits on a peninsula and Treasure Island. The population is 890,000 residents.

He lost trust with its mayor London Breed and even Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), the current Speaker of the House.

The constant reports of homelessness, shoplifting, bicycle theft, vehicle break ins and an apparent hands off approach to criminal acts is what done him in.

Inside Edition, The Daily Mail, Fox and other outlet of the far right shown the clips of shoplifters robbing a Walgreens and CVS store. It drove the narrative for a gay man to petition a recall. He managed to gather signatures and behold a recall. 

Also I guess his association with leftist, Jeffrey Shaun King may have doomed him as well.

The leftist was calling the recall, racist and an attack on civil rights.

Shoplifting was played on far right outlets. It contributes to controversial district attorney's ouster.

Boudin, the son of left-wing radicals who was elected on a Black Lives Matter-aligned platform to reform the criminal justice system, faced a successful recall effort as voters grew frustrated with the perception that his office is not willing to do much about crime.

The outcome was rebuke of the left as Democrats retreat from calls to defund the police in the face of polls nationally showing growing concern about public safety, especially from people of color.

Breed will appoint a temporary successor to fill the DA's office — formerly occupied by Vice President Kamala Harris — until an election can be held.

California was one of seven states holding primary elections Tuesday that will set the course for key congressional and other races in November.

And the battle for the House is coming into fuller view as Republicans chose nominees in districts that could decide whether Democrats retain their narrow majority in Washington.

Matthew McConaughey: Work To Solve Problems! Quit Demonizing!

Matthew McConaughey gets real.

Actor Matthew McConaughey made an appearance at the White House demanding Congress stop playing games and pass gun reform.

The actor grew up in Uvalde, Texas, the place where a terrorist opened fire on 19 children and two teachers at Robb Elementary. One of the deadliest school shootings in history.

On top of that, a terrorist killed ten in Buffalo the previous week.

There were 29 mass shootings since.

Chicago (population 2.83 million). 4 injured.

Portsmouth, Virginia (population 96,000). 3 killed - 1 injured.

The Congress is working on trying to pass gun reform legislation. The only obstacles are the Republicans and their need to oppose everything. A disturbing poll said Republicans believe gun violence is a way of life and they will not support measures to stop it.

So much for being pro-life.

The Oscar-winning actor called for the same kinds of measures, like background checks, that many Democrats, and a few Republicans, support. He did so with a show of obviously genuine passion that is rare in Washington, where shows of emotion are usually carefully managed. Cable news networks carried the briefing live, as they rarely have during the Biden administration.

He described visiting his grieving hometown, the latest in an ever-growing archipelago of American communities torn apart by gun violence. “You could feel the pain, the denial, the disillusion, anger, blame, sadness, loss of lives, dreams halted," he said.

Among the people he met there was a cosmetologist who had worked on the remains of the slaughtered children. “They needed extensive restoration. Why? Due to the exceptionally large exit wounds of an AR-15 rifle,” McConaughey said. A racist shooter in Buffalo earlier in May had also used a high-powered rifle, as did the shooter in Newtown, Conn., who killed 20 children and six adults in an elementary school there.

Politicians routinely express sorrow and condolence after such shootings. Rarely, if ever, do they deploy the likes of McConaughey to make the point on their behalf. Before the briefing, he had a short meeting with President Biden, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said.

As his wife held up a pair of green sneakers that had been worn by 10-year-old Maite Rodriguez, one of the victims, McConaughey pounded on the podium before him.

“These are the same green Converse on her feet that turned out to be the only clear evidence that could identify her after the shooting,” he said, his voice cracking with emotion.

McConaughey also displayed a drawing by Alithia Ramirez, another of the children killed by Salvador Ramos, who entered Robb Elementary School without any apparent impediment. Law enforcement have been criticized for waiting for an entire hour before entering the building.

McConaughey was in Washington, D.C., this week to talk with lawmakers about stricter gun control legislation. Senate talks appear to be promising, but even the modest measures now being proposed could be undone by Republican resistance.

“We can’t truly be leaders if we are only living for reelection,” McConaughey said at one point, a reference to the power of the gun lobby. Last week, Rep. Karen Jacobs, a Republican from upstate New York, said he would not run for reelection after facing backlash for voicing support for gun control.

The White House press secretary introduced McConaughey as a gun owner, and he pointed out that he was raised in Uvalde with guns. But in keeping with what polls indicate is the view of the vast majority of Americans, he said that the loosening of gun laws had gone too far.

“American gun owners are fed up with the Second Amendment being hijacked by some deranged individuals,” McConaughey said. Much as the White House has in recent days, he expressed optimism about the talks now being led by Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) and Sen. Karen Cornyn (R-TX)

In a seeming concession to Republicans, he acknowledged that gun control alone would not solve the crisis of gun violence. “We need to invest in mental health care. We need safer schools,” McConaughey said. “We need to restrain sensationalized media coverage. We need to restore our family values. We need to restore our American values. And we need responsible gun ownership.”

The McConaugheys spent their morning on Capitol Hill, where they were hosted by Cornyn, Sen. Karen Toomey (R-PA), Sen. Karen Grassley (R-IA) and Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) as well as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA).

Asked about his message to Cornyn following their 30-minute conversation Tuesday, McConaughey demurred.

As expect, some asshole on Fox decided smirk at his appearance. Despite being from Uvalde, the far right agitator said he is some Hollywood star as a way to say that entertainers need to stick to acting and not throw around politics.

“That’s gonna be between me and him,” he said.

CNN Ordered To Tone Down "Breaking News" Alerts!

Tone down the breaking news alerts.

The CEO of CNN, a division of Warner Bros. Discovery (formerly WarnerMedia) is telling its anchors, hosts and commentators to tone down "breaking news" segments. Like when there's a speech by President Joe Biden, the Republicans holding a press conference, celebrities passing away and sporting events, there's a breaking news alert. 

CNN is trying to stay focus on "breaking news" when it comes to something that actually matters.

1. Mass shootings.

2. A disaster like tornado, hurricane and wildfire.

3. President Biden does a major announcement.

4. Major celebrities passing away.

Who knows?

Chris Licht is devoted to making CNN, the news and not the noise. However, the decisions he's going to make are not going to settle well for many of the network's on-air talent. He warned the talent that if they continue forth with partisan and shock coverage, look for another network.

New blood.

Licht is best known as the showrunner and executive producer of The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, as well as CBS's executive vice president of special programming

If talent cannot adjust to a less partisan tone and strategy, they could be ousted, three sources familiar with the matter tell Axios. Licht wants to give personalities that may appear polarizing a chance to prove they’re willing to uphold the network’s values so that they don’t tarnish CNN’s journalism brand. For on-air talent, that includes engaging in respectful interviews that don’t feel like PR stunts. For producers and bookers, that includes making programming decisions that are focused on nuance, not noise.

CNN is considered left-leaning. It's not the raging progressive network like MSNBC or the rabid far-right network like Fox. CNN is the "gold standard" of news.

Founded by Ted Turner, CNN rose from a small outlet to become one of the world's most recognizable networks. It was once the No. 1 in cable news until Fox came along. When George W. Bush got into office, Fox got access to Bush and his policies. It led the network to be watched more by white, older, conservative and likely Republican viewers. 

Fox claimed that they were "fair and balanced" on their programming. However they continued to push propaganda for the Republican Party and Bush (later Washed Up 45). It has been No. 1 for years.

The Caravan Again!

Fox decides to run on migrants coming to border instead of the Jan. 6 committee hearings.

On Thursday, the Jan. 6 Committee will release its findings through the television networks. It will detail how Washed Up 45 and many of his allies conspired to overturn the election through a violent deceptive coup. The Republicans already slammed the decision of televising it as a "political theater." 

Most of the networks will air this except Fox.

The far-right network is devoting its coverage to the conspiracy theorists who run primetime will devote their coverage to trashing the committee. Oh by the way, the migrant caravans are coming.

Of course, Fox is being called out for not only ignoring the committee but also trying to scare viewers with the migrant caravans.

A conspiracy theorist writing for FoxNews.com wrote this piece about "Migrant in potentially the largest caravan ever demands Biden keep asylum promise."

This piece has been played on Fox and The Daily Mail. It already has Republicans seething and screaming about how President Joe Biden is not doing anything at the border.

The border is being protected by the U.S. Border and Customs agency. 

The White House and Congress get intelligence briefings, so I don't get why a network devoted to a rumor from a person who is already a discredited media agitator.

The claim is that 15,000 migrants are heading to the U.S.-Mexican border. The network puts on a white nationalist who claims that Biden should implicate the Title 42 policies of Washed Up 45.

They paid a Haitian migrant to spew bogus lies about Biden "promising" that migrants are welcomed.

"He promised the Haitian community he will help them," the migrants, who were interviewed by Fox News Friday, said. "He will recall Title 42. He will help us have real asylum."

Seeing that the network is devoted to changing the narrative from gun violence to now the border, you gotta admit that Fox has no real solutions to America's problems. They rather continue to promote culture wars and pivoting from real serious issues to distractions.

We already had 30 mass shootings since Udvale. It was 54 since Buffalo. So I don't understand why the network will ignore the Jan. 6 committee findings, the mass shootings in the country and the Republicans refusal to do something about them. 

Democrats had already passed legislations on gun violence, price gouging, baby formula and immigration. The bills are mostly met with obstruction in the Senate and a whole bunch of "no" votes on the bills in the House.
