Today Stacy McCain has a piece about the Antifa riots titled: The Demonic Mobs of Antifawhich includes the following quote:
These satanic forces control our nation’s cities. The streets of Portland and Chicago are ruled by mobs of demon-possessed monsters.
Well the obvious question is, if Donald Trump is such a horrible person why would there be Satanic forces against him? And if Satanic forces are against him, what is the evidence that he is being used by God?
I’ve not written much about it as the priest who origional told the story told it 2nd hand, but Lifesite news found the primary source and interviewed him directly and on camera, which certainly beats a lot of what the MSM has been spitting out lately.
I’ve been helping a new Public Affairs Officer get setup at her new job. We had a chance to talk about what influence’s people, specifically in news media, and specifically about the importance of understanding and communicating to your audience in a way that they understand. I brought up how during our BALTOPS exercise, one of the most popular items was an interview my boss had with a local news organization that was translated into Russian. It spiked traffic and I was shocked at how well received it was.
This Public Affairs officer called me this week with a short request, and then asked “Hey, did you see Trump’s tweet in a foreign language?”
Me: “Nope.”
Her: “Yeah, he tweeted about the Iranian executions in their language.”
Sure enough, a quick Google revealed that she was correct. President Trump tweeted in Farsi (the most common language in Iran) about his opposition to the execution of Iranian protesters. It’s quickly become one of the most popular Farsi posts. Ironically, Trump had previously tweeted in Farsi in January which became the most popular Farsi tweet ever. And just as interesting, I had not heard of this tweet. Granted, I’m not a Twitter user, but normally that sort of thing makes the news.
Tweeting in Farsi is hard. It’s not an easy language to use, and not easy to convert English into Farsi. President Trump is showing a pretty good understanding of how to make his tweets viral with a foreign audience he wants to influence. And yet…no mention of this, at all, in the media. Not even to make fun of it.
It’s the lack of coverage on these things that makes it too easy to believe the media is horribly biased.

I may be under quarantine (again) and my Laptop screen might be toast but the Camera is working fine so DaTechGuy Off DaRadio Podcast will be alive and well at 3 PM EST.
FYI: Both DaWife and I are under quarantine pending the results of her COVID test and this means we’re missing days of work and our sick and vacation time is exhausted. If you’re in a position to hit DaTipJar and have demurred before now is the time when it would help most.
Now in fairness the source is an administration official but combined with the misreporting out of Texas and Florida it very much appears that there is a concerted effort to play with the data for political advantage even with lives at stake.
This is repellent to me and I suspect repellent to the majority of the voting public who does not see Donald Trump as the greatest threat to their universe and believes any ends justifies those means.
This is the fight we are currently in and that’s why I’m sure that this news is going to be the final straw for a country sick of shutdown, riots and all of this crap.
If I’m wrong then we’ve lost the America we had, and moreover if it’s accurate and Americans aren’t outraged by it, we deserve to lose it.
