										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What media historian Bruce Herschensohn called ‘the Gods of the antenna’ were conspicuously on display on July 16 when President Trump gave a nationwide address on election integrity and security. None of the mainstream television networks carried it live.</p>
<p>In their role as the arbiters and self-proclaimed gatekeepers of what the public should think,  CNN defended its decision, saying <em>“it felt it would be dangerous to just air Trump’s speech live and unedited.”</em> ABC and NBC broadcast summarized accounts. CBS simply dismissed Trump’s address as “repeated falsehoods.”</p>
<p>Without interrogating the evidence of electoral fraud, the Gods of the antenna, along with the political establishment and their cohorts, have been insisting that the 2020 election was secure. Their word was infallible even though nobody cared to explain how Joe Biden, without campaigning, could have amassed 81 million votes – 15 million more than the darling of the Gods, Hillary Clinton, received in 2016.</p>
<p>Regardless of the efforts of the Gods to deny, discredit and downplay the issue of electoral fraud, with the midterms looming in November Trump has initiated a new narrative on the issue. In opening it, he cited FBI findings on how in 2020 China acquired the data of tens of millions of voters in 18 states either by theft, purchase or hacking.</p>
<p>As is his style, Trump is going to drip out more and more evidence, thereby compelling the Gods and their adherents to take a side: should foreign interference in US elections be tolerated? Already, back on 28 September 2023, <em>Newsweek </em>reported that the Chinese Communist Party had been funding Democrats in New York since 2013.</p>
<p>Faith in the integrity of voting machines has been challenged by various sources. In June 2023, Professor Robert Halderman of Michigan University published a 96-page report which found that Dominion voting machines “suffer from critical vulnerabilities that can be exploited to subvert all their security mechanisms.” Defamation charges against magnate Mike Lindell for accusing Dominion of stealing the 2020 election were recently dropped by Dominion as they were not confident of winning their case.</p>
<p>Ironically, while fraud involving hundreds of billions in federal funding is widely acknowledged and condemned, the Gods of the antenna persist in the narrative that elections are secure and untainted. But they are at odds with many. A current Rasmussen poll shows 64% regarding Chinese interference in elections as likely. In May, the <em>Washington Post </em>conceded that if voter ID and proof of citizenship had applied, Trump would have won New Mexico in 2024. To what extent might Democrat votes have been reduced nationwide had such requirements applied in 2020?</p>
<p>In Maryland, the recent discovery of 500,000 false voter registrations has become the subject of an FBI investigation. In the Senate, despite 80% of Americans being in support of voter ID and proof of citizenship for voting, the Democrats refuse to endorse Trump’s Save America Act.  These are the same people who are opposed to immigration agents being at polling stations to prevent illegal aliens from voting.</p>
<p><em>“If the vote can be obtained by foreign nations or menaces, by fraud or violence, the government may not be the choice of the American people but of foreign nations,”</em> warned John Adams, second president of the US.</p>
<p>And that is the intention of the globalists, which is why Trump rightly sees national security at risk in elections.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An unprecedented shift in controlling the US news narrative is occurring. Whereas the legacy media, in its self-ordained role as a quasi-government, led the charge in prosecuting Nixon during Watergate and in consistently promoting Democrat narratives, since January 20 it has not only lost that impetus but has had it upended by Trump’s blizzard of reforms.</p>
<p>In his first month in office, Trump issued 73 Executive Orders, 23 Proclamations and 12 Memorandums – more than any recent president issued in their first 100 days. The most significant theme of Trump’s reforms is his exposure of the existence of the Deep State, the entrenched empire of unelected officials within the bureaucracy of government.</p>
<p>Routinely disparaged and dismissed by the legacy media as a “conspiracy theory,” the reality of the Deep State is now undeniable. Its subversive role and the implications for those involved is now the narrative over which the legacy media has no control.</p>
<p>For decades it enjoyed credibility. The words of Walter Cronkite, Dan Rather, Ted Koppel, Harry Reasoner, Ben Bradlee, and their successors were the holy writ of news and views. But in one month that façade has been stripped away.</p>
<p>Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has found that Reuters received $9 million from US taxpayers to promote a programme of Social Engineering and Psychological Operations against US citizens. Left-wing publication <em>Politico</em> received $8 million to disseminate globalist, anti-Trump narratives. Disney’s receipt of USAID to project wokeism and transgenderism was concealed in the form of 700,000 ‘subscriptions.’ The <em>New York Times </em>played the role of “narrative coordination” for the rest of the mass media to disseminate.</p>
<p>Haemorrhaging viewership and readership, the role of the legacy media in censoring and attempting to sustain narratives is beyond salvage as the revelations of Deep State fraud and waste have further implications for those involved. The loud protests of the Democrats against the audits by DOGE serve as an indication of the extent of their collusion. It also reflects their desperation to preserve the US government as the fiefdom of globalist ideology.</p>
<p>The new narrative is now right versus wrong, not Left versus Right. It is now &#8220;We the people&#8221; and no longer the unelected special interests.</p>
<p>With savings of $55 billion already identified and the decision to mail rebate cheques for $5,000 to 79 million taxpaying households, the popularity of the DOGE shows that the negativity of the Democrats and the legacy media is on the wrong side of the history-making new narrative.</p>
