The Media Washes Its Hands of the Bragg Indictment by Daniel Greenfield
“The Trump indictment is a dangerous leap on the highest of wires”
April 6, 2023 – There are two ‘medias’. There are the clickbait ranters out front and the smarter folks in the back who address a more literate audience. For the longest time they were on the same page when it came to Trump. Both hailed the Mueller investigation and the associated investigations. But, with the Bragg indictment, there’s a break.
I chronicled a few of those yesterday with Slate’s Mark Joseph Stern and Vox’s Ian Milhiser, the legal people for two of the big names in lefty digital media, washing their hands of the indictment.

There are now even stronger voices in the lefty legacy media backing far away from it.
Chicago Chooses Crime by Daniel Greenfield
Brandon Johnson’s victory means that Mayor Lori Lightfoot will be replaced by someone far worse.
April 6, 2023 – Brandon Johnson’s “victory” means that Mayor Lori Lightfoot will be replaced by someone far worse. Lightfoot at least made occasional efforts to fight crime, Johnson’s message is that criminals are the victims.
That is the trend in a party and a political system that goes to extremes.
Johnson’s victory comes as little surprise despite polls that showed Paul Vallas was leading. Like Rick Caruson in Los Angeles, Vallas picked up endorsements from Democrats, including surprising ones, ran as a moderate and seemed poised to win over a city that was tired of the madness. And, like the LA mayoral race it didn’t matter. Johnson and Bass had the same two assets, racial bloc voting and a political machine capable of delivering votes, especially once it understood how many votes were needed to get its candidate over the top.
I’m not even counting the media.
Chicago loves crime, but this isn’t the Capone kind of vote, it’s the solidarity between the Left and the thugs running the streets. The old Chicago machine alternated between tolerating crime and cracking down on it. It cut dirty deals with bosses and busted hoods. The new machine loves street level criminals. And they love it.
Indiana, Idaho governors sign bans on gender-affirming care By ARLEIGH RODGERS
April 6, 2023 – INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Republican governors in Indiana and Idaho have signed into law bills banning gender-affirming care for minors, making those states the latest to restrict transgender health care as Republican-led legislatures continue to curb LGBTQ+ rights this year.
Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb signed legislation Wednesday that will prohibit transgender youth from accessing medication or surgeries that aid in transition and mandate those currently taking medication to stop by the end of the year.
Idaho Gov. Brad Little had signed legislation Tuesday evening that criminalizes gender-affirming care for youth.
More than a dozen other states are considering bills that would prohibit transgender youth from accessing hormone therapies, puberty blockers and transition surgeries, even after the approval of parents and the advice of doctors. Other proposals target transgender individuals’ everyday life — including sports, workplaces and schools.
Alan Dershowitz Says Trump “Probably Will be Convicted” – But Verdict will be Overturned on Appeal (VIDEO) By Cristina Laila
Apr. 5, 2023 6:29 pm – Attorney Alan Dershowitz told Charlie Kirk on Wednesday that he believes Trump will be convicted – but the verdict will be overturned on appeal.
The Trump indictment was unsealed on Tuesday during Trump’s arraignment.
Read the indictment here.
Trump was hit with a criminal charge for every payment he made to his former lawyer Michael Cohen in connection with the ‘hush payments’ to the two women.
Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg went through the Trump Organization’s ledger and charged him down the line per payment to Cohen.
Every single payment to Michael Cohen was made in 2017 while Trump was president.
Bragg’s office copied and pasted the same charge 34 times and just switched out the check/voucher/invoice number.
Dershowitz told Charlie Kirk that a Manhattan jury will convict Trump, but the verdict will be overturned on appeal.

And why this matters

Over the last few months, there has been a lengthy discussion on encouraging RFK to run for president, and a month ago, he began the preliminary steps to see if it was possible
Today Robert F. Kennedy Jr. filed for his candidacy. Interestingly, many different mainstream publications immediately reported it (e.g., Politico and CNN), which I take as an admission his candidacy has the potential to disrupt the political landscape.
I believe RFK Jr. is extremely well positioned to run for the following reasons:
Robert F Kennedy Jr. Announces Run Against Joe Biden for President as a Democrat in 2023 By Jim Hoft
Apr. 5, 2023 – Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announced his intention to run for President of the United States in 2024.
Robert will take on octogenarian and failed president Joe Biden in the Democrat Party Primary.
Robert distinguishes himself from many modern Democrats in that he still believes in free speech, the Bill of Rights, the US Constitution, and standing up against government corruption.
Check out this tweet today from Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. also has a massive following in the populist movement for his courage in taking on Tony Fauci and the tyrants in the American medical community whose policies killed hundreds of thousands of Americans during the COVID pandemic. Kennedy continues to speak out on the dangerous mRNA COVID vaccines.
The Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft interviewed Robert Kennedy Jr. back in August 2023.
Robert Kennedy Jr. discussed his book “A Letter to Liberals”. The book challenges the “lockdown liberalism’s” embrace of tyrannical policies that were at one time an affront of their cherished precepts.
The book is available on the Children’s Health Defense website.
Robert Kennedy, Jr published “The Real Anthony Fauci,” a number one best seller on Amazon and The New York Times in 2021. Over 1,000,000 million copies were sold despite the mainstream media and big tech attacks on the book and its author.
