'I’m the sucker:' Election-denying podcaster implodes over Trump allies abandoning the Big Lie



BlazeTV podcaster Steve Deace on Thursday threw a fit that former President Donald Trump's false narrative about the 2020 election has fallen apart and expressed outrage that Trump's erstwhile allies are abandoning the Big Lie.

"We are going to the mattresses for these people," Deace sulked. "We are offering them more accommodation, more chances than we'd offer our own family members, for goodness sakes. And for what? To have Rudy Giuliani go down to Georgia and admit that he lied? Have Jason Miller tell the January 6th commission, 'Yeah. We all knew it was BS.' What? What is this?"

Deace also for the second time in as many weeks designated Trump's Make America Great Again following as a "cult" — less than three months after he falsely alleged that Democrats "got away with rigging" the contest that Trump definitively lost to President Joe Biden.

"Some of you don't like it when I use the cult word, but when you like being treated like a schmuck, and ask for more, that is a cult," Deace droned. "'I'm the mark. I'm the sucker. I want to be such, and I resent the person who tries to get me out of that.' Those are marks of groupthink, frankly. How many people in this audience set money to Stop the Steal three years ago? How many shows did I waste your time talking about this three years ago? How many? I still have not recovered. Between the election fraud and COVID, I probably have the smallest Facebook following of any major show in this entire industry. I will routinely post things on Facebook, get like two or three comments. It is like Facebook is like, 'We won't ban you because then you'll just, you'll, you'll whine about it and, and generate a bunch of publicity, so we'll just make it that no one sees your material at all.' Why? Because I went to the mattresses on COVID, in the election fraud issue, only to have Rudy Giuliani say, 'Yeah, I was lying,' and Jason Miller say, 'Oh, we knew it was all BS.'"

Deace's colleague then mockingly adds, "All the best people, Steve."

Media Matters for America researcher Brendan Karet posted the clip of Deace's rant to X, remarking:

What's truly amazing about Steve is that he isn't smart enough to realize that yes, the 2020 election conspiracies were complete horsesh*t. The lesson Steve took from this is that Trump's henchmen are traitors who won't expose the Stolen Election. You are in the cult, Steve! You're the guy who wants to be there so much that they make him clean the toilets. Everyone else is off doing fun stuff while you do this.

PA GOP Senate candidate who says he 'started with nothing' actually grew up in a mansion

Image
David McCormick, who is Pennsylvania's presumptive Republican U.S. Senate nominee, has often suggested he grew up poor in a rural community. But a new report finds that his upbringing was far more affluent than he's suggested. The New York Times reported Friday that McCormick — a former hedge fund executive who lived in Connecticut as recently as 2022 — has been cagey with voters about his childhood. McCormick has tweeted that he was "raised in Bloomsburg working on his family's farm," said on a 2022 podcast that he " started with nothing " and told CBS News that same year that he " didn't have anything " growing up as the son of two schoolteachers. But according to the Times , McCormick's father, Dr. James H. McCormick , was appointed president of what is now Bloomsburg University by Gov. Milton Schapp (D) in 1973. He moved his family into Buckalew Place — the official mansion for presidents of the school that currently spans 5...

How misinformation could shape the Israel-Hamas war

Image
I wanted to interview Nicholas Grossman regarding the role of misinformation in the war between Israel and Hamas. In particular, I hoped to ask the professor of international relations at the University of Illinois, and senior editor of Arc Digital , about misinformation that arose from American reporting on an explosion at a hospital in Gaza. You know what? I ended up repeating a bit of misinformation! I asked him to lay out the facts about a blast that “killed hundreds, including kids,” and he said nuh-uh (not his words). In fact, Professor Grossman said, “there never were hundreds killed by an explosion at that hospital. Media reported that the hospital was destroyed by an Israeli airstrike killing 500, but that was based on something a Hamas-controlled agency said and was never supported by evidence.” Professor Grossman went on to say “what apparently did happen is something hit a nearby parking lot and caused a smaller explosion, most likely a rocket fired from Gaza towards I...

Trump was hit by glass fragments — not a bullet: report

Image
Law enforcement officials have claimed to two different sources that former President Donald Trump was not grazed by a bullet but rather by glass shards. The officials in question told both Newsmax's Alex Salvi and Axios' Juliegrace Brufke that Trump was hit by glass shards that may have erupted from the shattering of a teleprompter that was hit by gunfire. Earlier on Saturday, law enforcement sources confirmed that the person suspected of firing a weapon at a Pennsylvania Trump rally had been killed, as had at least one person in the crowd. Videos showed Trump grabbing his neck after apparent gunshots had been fired before Secret Service agents pulled him to the ground. They then took him away in an armored vehicle to a hospital where he was treated for injuries. The identity of the shooting suspect has not yet been released. from Alternet.org https://ift.tt/ILgqr53 via sinceretalk
