Mainstream Media's Selective Coverage of Xi Jinping's Visit

The White House blocked CNN, MS Now, and Politico from accessing the premises throughout the morning.

A federal judge had ordered the restoration of access for these media organizations.

White House staff attributed the delay to procedural badge reactivation.

Steve Bannon criticized the situation as potential contempt of court, questioning who issued the order to delay the access.

Judge Timothy Kelly's ruling centered on Fifth Amendment procedural due process, asserting that media organizations have a liberty interest in White House access.

The court cited established DC Circuit precedent requiring notice and an opportunity to be heard before revoking a White House hard pass.

The speaker suggested the White House is attempting to redefine its discretion, distinguishing between 'communicative spaces' and 'news gathering' areas to justify restricting access.

The speaker noted that a divided panel in 'Associated Press v. Budawich' previously allowed the President to block the Associated Press from certain private spaces like the Oval Office, Air Force One, and Mar-a-Lago, setting a precedent for some executive discretion.

A California court ruled that Sheriff Chad Biano lacked the authority to seize election ballots in Riverside County.

Panelists expressed concern that election deniers in positions of power could attempt to delay results or disrupt the certification process.

The focus of this concern shifted from traditional post-election dates like January 6 to the critical period of ballot counting and certification.

There are also concerns raised by panelists about vigilante organizations inspired by political rhetoric potentially causing issues during this period.

Steve Bannon contended that major networks like CNN and MSNBC showed virtually no footage of the Chinese state visit, instead focusing on their dispute over White House access.

Neil McCabe reported that when reporters from these outlets returned to the White House briefing area, they acted like celebrities, receiving applause from other media personnel.

Bannon argued that this self-coverage was driven by a 'Trump derangement syndrome,' where networks prioritize their own narrative and fight against the President.

He characterized the networks' actions in the past 48 to 72 hours as revealing their 'true nature' and 'pure propaganda,' obsessing over themselves rather than significant news events.

Live streaming technology from phones renders traditional pool restrictions obsolete, a shift Jack Posobiec uses to frame Real America's Voice as a democratic alternative to club journalism.

He positioned Real America's Voice's coverage as a democratic alternative to the 'club' mentality of traditional journalism.

Posobiec claimed that mainstream reporters are frustrated because they are no longer seen as uniquely privileged in their access.

He cited the First Amendment as his justification for covering the White House, emphasizing his perspective on the right of American citizens to report on events.

Andrew Breitbart described story selection as one of the media's greatest powers, a concept Posobiec applies to contrast mainstream news with the priorities of Real America's Voice.

He contrasted the mainstream media's focus on internal disputes with Real America's Voice's commitment to covering issues like trade, immigration, the border, and war.

Posobiec defined 'NPR Americans' as individuals who still trust mainstream outlets like CNN, The New York Times, and NPR, noting that these people often hold positions of power and influence in local institutions.

He argued that the mainstream media's narrative campaign aims to radicalize their audience, which he claimed sometimes incites violence.

Neil McCabe highlighted China Daily's coverage of Xi Jinping's arrival, noting its emphasis on the event as a significant win for China, aiming to portray Xi as an equal to Trump.

He observed a China Daily article discussing increased Chinese government enforcement against fentanyl crimes, suggesting this was linked to ongoing negotiations.

Negotiators reportedly failed to secure an extension of the trade truce through the end of Trump's term.

Posobiec noted that China views such receptions as a confirmation of Xi Jinping's leadership, portraying China's ascendancy after a 'century of humiliation' dating from the Opium War in 1849 to the founding of the People's Republic in 1949.

Jack Posobiec argued that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) relies on historical revisionism as a fundamental mechanism to secure legitimacy.

He identified the myth of the CCP single-handedly defeating Japan in World War II as central to its founding narrative and the naming of the 'People's Liberation Army'.

Posobiec asserted that the CCP attempts to influence the American public's view of these historical events.

This tactic is compared to the efforts of 'Marxist jihadists' who also seek legitimacy without electoral support, often through narrative control and historical reinterpretation.

Jack Posobiec invoked Captain John Birch as a significant historical figure, labeling him the first American casualty in what he termed the 'Great War against communism'.

Birch was reportedly murdered by Chinese Communist soldiers while engaged in World War II efforts, marking an early point of hostility between the CCP and the United States.

This reference served to highlight a critique of U.S. foreign policy at the time, alleging the infiltration of the State Department by Soviet agents and a misunderstanding of the CCP's nature.

Attendance reached 55,000 for the St. Louis event honoring Fulton Sheen, who achieved fame through his radio broadcasts and his public characterization of communism as a godless ideology.

Sheen was known as one of the most widely listened to and watched anti-communists in America, winning an Emmy in 1953 for his efforts, and for categorizing communism as an 'atheistic godless ideology that must be destroyed.'

Jack Posobiec highlighted Sheen's active participation in the Cold War, including his efforts to help people defect.

Steve Bannon connected the commemoration to his claims that the Roosevelt regime was infiltrated by KGB agents who basically turned China over to the Chinese Communist Party. He also criticized perceived misrepresentation of World War II history.

Jack Posobiec noted the boy's recovery, which occurred after his parents offered an intercessory prayer to Sheen in 2010.

The now 16-year-old boy recently led a procession in St. Louis, carrying Sheen's reliquary.

This event marks a miracle attributed to Sheen, a crucial step in the process towards his canonization.

For Sheen to achieve sainthood, a second miracle will be required, as he currently stands on the precipice of sainthood.

Steve Bannon criticized mainstream media networks for their lack of coverage of the meeting between President Trump and the Chinese Chairman, stating that not a single clip of the event was shown overnight.

He alleged that mainstream coverage instead hyper-focused on former President Trump's legal disputes.

Bannon argued that by suppressing news of the summit, networks are misinforming the American public about significant geopolitical events.

He emphasized that Real America's Voice provides unedited coverage of such events.

Navarro contended that these networks, particularly Fox, have "weaponized" their access to the pool camera, transforming it into a tool for biased reporting.

He proposed that Real America's Voice (RAV) and other partners should take over the operation of the White House press pool, ensuring unbiased coverage.

Navarro also advocated for a mass boycott of Fox News, citing their "shameful" coverage of the recent diplomatic events and perceived alignment with "left-wing Trump haters."

The network pledged to offer an unedited and 'clean' media feed to all other outlets, completely free of charge.

RAV stated its intention to maintain pressure and continue its independent reporting efforts even with the return of mainstream media outlets to the White House press pool.

This commitment extends to providing wall-to-wall coverage of presidential travel trips and other significant events.

November’s APEC summit and the G20 event at Doral are the scheduled venues for the two upcoming meetings between President Trump and the Chinese Chairman.

Before concluding the current visit, President Trump is scheduled to tour the National Archives with the Chinese delegation, highlighting a special display of General Washington's annotated Constitution.

Neil McCabe reported that the Chinese government released its own readout stressing cooperation and stability, while President Trump's approach is described as incorporating a 'disruptive element' for strategic advantage.

The Trump administration is implementing a strategy to decouple the U.S. economy from China by leveraging technological innovation to counteract China's pricing and subsidized production models.

This approach involves partnering startups with established companies, mirroring the ventilator initiative that increased production within 14 days.

The goal is to achieve independence in critical supply chains, such as rare earth magnets, within a timeframe of 6 to 18 months, with the aspiration of becoming an exporter.

Germanium production is cited as an example where capacity was installed domestically by the third quarter to supply the country, demonstrating the viability of this strategy.

Dependency on Chinese-made Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients threatens U.S. medical security, as Steve Bannon warned that 90% of generics imported from India utilize Chinese inputs to circumvent direct sourcing.

Peter Navarro explained that China's model in the pharmaceutical industry extends beyond mere profit, focusing on leverage and geopolitical pressure, utilizing slave labor and a lack of environmental regulations to gain an unfair market advantage.

The pharmaceutical production process involves three stages: base materials, API, and finished medication, with base materials primarily sourced from India and China.

Navarro alleged that both Big Pharma and the FDA, under figures like Dr. Fauci, facilitated the offshoring of pharmaceutical production to China for cost efficiency, contributing to the current dependency and strategic vulnerability.

Steve Bannon emphasized the critical need to mobilize the existing MAGA base along with low-propensity MAGA voters, viewing this as the central political objective.

Both Bannon and Dr. Peter Navarro characterized the upcoming political contests as a battle of 'MAGA versus DSA' (Democratic Socialists of America) or 'communists'.

They stressed the urgency of voter turnout and grassroots involvement to counteract the policies of the current administration.

Bannon suggested that public dissatisfaction with the administration must be translated into active participation at the polls.

The book details 15 counts against Fauci, ranging from homicide to obstruction, outlining how he allegedly lied under oath multiple times regarding the virus's origins.

Navarro encourages the public to read the book, presenting it as a "prosecutor's case" against Fauci and a means for citizens to act as a "grand jury."

Neil McCabe reported that Carney, who he noted has a background including the Bank of England and Brookfield Capital, has told reporters in Canada that he has reviewed plans to defend Canada against an attack from the United States, describing this as 'provocative talk.'

McCabe noted Carney's professional background, including previous roles at the Bank of England and Brookfield Capital, which Steve Bannon further clarified included ties to Goldman Sachs.

This revelation emerged amidst ongoing diplomatic discussions with the Chinese Communist Party in Washington, prompting McCabe to offer his view that the relationship with Canada is going to be an ongoing drama throughout the rest of this term.
