Keep in mind…. a more assertive, deliberate, strategic and determined MAGA movement is being noticed everywhere. There are new combat rules in response to the leftist onslaught toward our children. Cold anger has turned hot. Some have called this ‘Dark MAGA‘!
Meanwhile…
Leftist favorite Netflix, is hemorrhaging users and just lost 30% of its value. Spotify just refused to renew the leftist idols, the Obamas. The ultra-leftist Disney Corp just lost their special district status in Orlando, and leftist Twitter is on the verge of a hostile ‘free speech’ takeover by Elon Musk.
The political culture wars are raging, Biden’s support amid the American people is collapsing even more, and Dark MAGA is not relenting. Now this:
(SOURCE)
CNN spent $300 million to launch a subscriber-based platform that didn’t even survive a month:
“CNN+, the streaming service that was hyped as one of the most significant developments in the history of CNN, will shut down on April 30, just one month after it launched. CNN+ customers “will receive prorated refunds of subscription fees,” the company said.”
Will Spotify and Netflix drop Harry and Megan next? and poor
Chris Wallace must be having fits…good ..hopefully Fox
doesn;t take him back.
I’m surprised anyone takes Harry and Megan seriously.
Harry and Megan….who?
Young couple, just moved in down the street. Met them at the annual block party. They seem nice enough, but she can be a little bitchy if she’s had too much to drink.
That Harry fella seems OK. Once you get him away from his wife and he loosen’s up a bit. Funny bloke after a coupla wobbly-pops.
Only the US media
Lol keep Chrissy away from sharp objects and tall buildings.
Why?
I believe in freedom of choice 😉
the world would be better off with the opposite
Think he burned his bridges there.
I weep for him…
Oh the horror!
I have never liked Chris Wallace. What a creepy little freakshow. If FOX takes him back, I’m going to quit watching. That leaves Tucker, he’s all that’s left worth listening to. Even he drives me nutz, though – because he talks waaaaay too fast, he laughs at the end of every sentence. It’s that horrible, hooting laugh and I dislike that a lot.
I may have misunderstood, but I think I heard Tucker say that he’s moving to a new time slot? Early in the morning?? Oh Lord, I’m not a morning person so if he actually does that, I’ll have no news at all. I can tolerate Bret Baier but he’s about all that will be left at FOX. Their line-up stinks. But it’s better than anything CNN or MSNBC could ever ever ever produce.
Guess time will tell.
I think Tucker was talking about his specials on Fox Nation – the subscription service. I think he said new shows of his were going to be released early in the day now.
I like Tucker too and, although I understand how it could be annoying, I love it when he laughs. What bugs me is some of the people he constantly has on like Tulsi Gabbard. She is a WEF darling and I have a hard time with her because she is a leftie who speaks fluent Conservative. I’m tired of being snookered.
Who still watches the dumb tube ? Not me
Amen. Glad I’m not alone in this category. It is a box of lies and propaganda. No thanks!
PS: I can tell you are a GOOD and SMART man 😉
Greg Gutfeld is my favorite- love his sarcastic humor.
Oh well..
I hear joebama will need to replace Peppermint Patty soon.
Chrissy would do it for free.
They went wayyy too far – especially with the kids. Outrageous! Goes against every natural parental instinct.
As far as I am concerned the left has been summarily sexually harassing our children with their gender id dogma and non-sense pronouns. We may have to sue them to get them to stop. And while we are at it I wonder if criminal charges can be filed against anyone who administers puberty blocking drugs to a child without parental consent.
Puberty blocking drugs out to be against the law. Which ever company is making these must be bribing congress. Seems to me big pharma is behind a lot more evil than I previously even thought about.
ought….not “out”. Sometimes there is an edit button and sometimes there isn’t.
Oh, we have no idea how evil Big Harma is. This only scratches the surface.
With woke lawfare, it is the PARENTS who try to stop healthcare butchers from hacking up their children that are charged with child abuse. Gender bending hormones, surgeries and abortion are “rights” that minor children are encouraged to exert *without* parental consent.

What is the source of all their money?
That is a good question! I was reading this article on zerohedge and it only furthered my suspicion that the ol’ money laundering spigot has recently been disrupted, shutting down the flow of liberal woke laundered money to pass all around.
Hollywood was a great way to launder drug and other money. Oh Look! Another generic piece of liberal crap full of the wokest actors is a somehow a blockbuster!! Advertising money for all the right people!!
I can’t help wonder if it is not coincidence that BRICS forms and suddenly all of these platforms are short of cash and need to actually use a real business model to operate.
From zerohedge: “Today it’s still true that very few companies actually matter… but a surprisingly large number of firms achieved billion dollar plus valuations – often without the intermediate step of actually making any money or building much of a market for themselves.“
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/netflix-end-faang-era
And it makes me curious, given Sundance’s discussions about Twitter if rather than attempting to save free speech, if Musk isn’t attempting to save Twitter itself from the same fate as Netflix, CNN+ Facebook. All seem to have suffered a sudden lack of endless capital to run suspect business models.
So true. I remember when low PE ratios mattered. Now those with infinite PEs rule the roost. Still doesn’t make sense to me.
“What is the source of all their money ?”
Taxes, now and in the future (incurring debt for the unborn to pay).
Does anyone really think that $800 million to the Ukraine is actually not going to be skimmed by the usual Washington leeches?
It’s called “redirecting”.
It’s a bait and switch scheme.
They vote for covid funds, then “redirect” the money to fund the invasion.
I’m sure this practice is used to fund all kinds of things that they don’t want to be on the record having voted for.
Constantly. Happens at State level as well.
And the overall scheme is obama’s, “Redistribution of wealth”. He’s a skunk.
Good, we keep fighting them on every level. And we never stop. But it is nice to see them shoot themselves every now and again.
Apple is by far the biggest phony.
It’s not just CNN. All the big MSM outlets have seen massive drops in viewership and revenue but it has not effect on their bias.
There was an editor at Newsweek magazine (back when it was still printing) that claimed the media gave the Democrats a significant voting advantage due to their bias. He was complaining that the media should therefore have a greater say in legislation.
The point is, the MSM exists to support the left and money doesn’t matter. Driving away all but leftists doesn’t matter. It only matters that the media drown out all other voices so the low info demographic hears nothing else.
The question is, given that the left finds way to shove tax money into the hands of all kinds of leftist groups and organizations, you have to assume they are doing it on the sly with the media. Twitter may simply be the most flagrant and well hidden example.
YES^^^
I don’t ask for a “Fairness Doctrine” or even integrity and objectivity. I only ask that all journalists be shown or printed with “Democrat” or “Republican” by their names or superimposed over their image. That will hammer home the point more than anything else.
You’re “half” right… (because your name is Hanbun)
Grants; lots and lots of government grants, mostly into leftist organizations including many belonging to George Soros. In many ways we fund our own destruction via government grants to hostile actors/entities with our taxes.
They have stretched campaign seasons into a 2 year period and it is never ending. Campaign ads keep them afloat, plus pushing vaccines and big pharma and anything else the gubt wants to propagandize, like mail-in balloting for instance.
Money doesn’t matter to them — until it does.
And even if the government is funding them . . . if these propaganda outlets have no viewers, then the propaganda is worthless.
No one is influenced by that garbage anymore.
Praise be to God!!!!!
My dear Dad who was born on April 30, 1924 was down in the South Pacific on an ocean-going tug (he was a radio tech/CPO) on his birthday in 1945 when Hitler left. Of course, the war in the Pacific would continue on into August.
They are clueless if MSM was pick and chose feeds on cable or dish they would never got off the ground CNN+ proof a dream crushed by reality
Stolen…
“Karma is a bitch?
Oh no, honey…Karma is a classy and wise elder who will calmly sit you down and serve you a tea you later realize was laced with the same poison you served to others for years.”
Accurate.
That’s a bitch
Isn’t it? Salty tears.
Stealing…
Be my guest…I won’t tell. As Ad rem said after another steal of mine…Omerta.
Google next. I am having LongCovid digestion issues two months after Omicron. I discovered tea made with ginger helps very much, and so I googled “long Covid ginger” to see what other people knew about it. What did Google serve up? The first 21 sites were all “experts” assuring people that “ginger does not cure Covid.” Searching “indigestion ginger” gives a completely different kind of result. I hate Google.
I get the ginger, slice it thin, either flash freeze it for freezing, or dehydrate it, and throw that in my green tea & honey. It is good for a variety of what ails one.
It’s great in a variety of marinades, plus, I can then make my own ground ginger for my spice cabinet too.
A store nearby is run by a transplant from the Philippines, and friend, and she gets it in fresh starting in May. She has it all. Great noodles, fish, bananas…
I had Omicron in January and had long OMicron side effects also dry red throat, insomnia, and joint pain symptoms are subsiding slowly
Serious question.
How do you know you had”omicron”.
Symptoms were head congestion, sore throat, headache fatigue cough for 2 days and tested positive. Contacted AFLD and took Invermictin and z pack.
Ginger is good. I have found that ground clove tea works for my long covid. I have been coughing like mad and nothing else helped. I keep the clove tea next to my bed at night. It works better than cough drops. Cough syrup is useless.
clove tea? sounds super spicy.
Try fresh ginger, sliced and smashed in a pumice stone. Place in a cup with 1tsp honey, 1/2 squeezed lemon and allow to steep. Drink…ahhhh! It’s my every-morning drink prior to breakfast.
Seriously. While it’s fun to imagine destroying all businesses which push the leftist agenda, consider WHY they are pushing the leftist agenda. As we are learning, it is because:
1) the IC has leverage and control over big tech
2) firms like Blackrock are buying stock with investor money, gaining board seats and forcing these issues and/or threatening to sell off all of their stocks to tank their value
3) Soros groups and others are blackmailing privately held companies in various ways. (Even Chic-fil-A fell to this!)
Since this weird thing started going on, I’ve been wondering WHY are these businesses willing to tank their value and segment their customers? “Get woke, Go broke” was a clever way of stating the obvious but does nothing to answer why they are marching off of that cliff.
The three reasons (maybe there are more?) above indicates this is not because of the idealism of the owners. These are things being forced to happen. We need to address the cause of the illness, not go after the ill.
Good point. I was visualizing brainy Silicon Valley dweebs who never had a relationship or went camping in all their short young lives. Does that make me a Boomer?
Try Qwant as a search engine.
Try Brave search. It doesn’t track, and it doesn’t censor.
A somewhat different interpretation of the close-down is that the new management at Warner Bros Discovery is simply reversing yet another lousy business decision made by AT&T (i.e., the decision to start CNN+), just before AT&T spun-off Warner Brothers Discovery.
New management is making a smart business decision.
CNN+ was doomed from the beginning. What fool thought people would pay out of pocket for more of the same content is causing CNN to hemorrhage viewers?
100k aparently paid….
I have never cared for Chris Wallace at all. He was a radical leftist from the get-go, and he was allowed to spread his poison via a network that valued free speech.
He made a major miscalculation transitioning to a radical leftist network. He forgot to look at their business acumen.
CNN is on the list of America’s most poorly run businesses. How they hid that from Wallace is probably a story in itself. He should have been able to discern it on his own from their viewership numbers.
I think he is so blinded by his narcissism that he actually believed people would pay to watch him.
Every time I see that smug mug of Chrissy Pissy I want to punch him in the mouth!
I prefer “Deep MAGA” to Dark MAGA.
Just sayin’.
MAGA Flame-thrower has a nice ring.
“Mad MAGA”
I’d love to see the offices that were lavishly built and furnished for the execs…. sitting empty.
Tippecanoe’s presidency lasted longer.
And Tyler’s presidency did too.
Just a note about Spotify, Netflix and the Obama Klan….the Obama’s dumped their Netflix Shares and Netflix Corporate Board Seats almost 1 year ago, just ahead of Netflix taking it’s first dive in value.
This was mutual departure and something bigger is in the works. Be assured, the Obama Klan lost nothing on this deal.
I heard today that he is busy working on his Chicago museum where he plans to reassemble the oval office and all of Michelle’s clothes while she was first lady. It’ll look like a second hand store! Honestly, he really thinks they both are special. NOT and never have been.
Chicago, lol
She?
IT
Who?
Ozero is actually pretty “special”…..the only proven ineligible person ever appointed as POTUS and to date has gotten away with it
The locals are not happy about that monstrosity. The building is an eyesore and takes up part of a beloved city park view.
Very gratifying that CNN+ cratered so *quickly* !!!
I’m so happy that I hugged the cat.
I’m happier still that I had picked up some more bandaids.
Did you hear the demons screeching–literally–in the background as they passed that bill in the House?
Yes, and I would like all of the fake news orgs and their fake people to know this one fact:
You & Biden Did That!
Congrats!
You Cheated For This.
🙂 🙂 🙂
I Hope Your Sorry Companies DIE a slow and miserable death for you calling yourselves journalists.
You Are Pathetic.
Taking down the vehicles that deliver the leftist rot is only the beginning. These people are responsible for their actions. Tracking them down in their little comfort clouds and publicly jerking them to reality is what will make sure the message is sent.
“Jerking them to reality” with extreme prejudice.
Why does zerohedge always use a picture of a naked man?
It’s from Fight Club.
Because the pen name of the author of most articles on ZH is Tyler Durden, a character in the movie Fight Club and that image is one of him shirtless for a fight. Brad Pitt, I think.
Just to round out the trivia:
ZH’s slogan, On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero, is also a line taken from the movie.
Thank you both. Never heard of any of that movie (I guess) or the people but I sure appreciate the explanation.
We signed up for the trial of HBO Max so my wife could watch a show her friends told her about. She watched all the episodes so we decided to try a few other shows. They were all so overblown by wokeness they were unbearable to watch so we cancelled the subscription.
People don’t want leftist woke politics shoved in their faces. Just entertain us.
Netflix was the same way. Always in your face with that wokeness crap.
I hope they succeed. There’s a list of “platforms” that need to be knocked off, starting with Netfux and HBO.
Did CNN marketing research actually indicate that people would pay for fake news?
Only those with an IQ of 70 or less, i.e., the most brain dead of Democrats.
Go much lower. Think dust mite. 70 is the Dem’s top academic tier.
Elon is playing with Twitter and he makes me laugh. “—— is the Night.” he tweets and “Love me Tender” as he hopes to find a like minded partner for his buyout of Twitter. I never watch CNN and their failure is well deserved.
https://www.theepochtimes.com/pressure-mounts-on-twitters-board-as-elon-musk-hints-at-potential-tender-offer_4417380.html
Musk is a JAG (just another globalist). He’s not to be trusted.
Probably. But it’s still fun to watch them bicker among themselves.
Yes. It occurs to me that we should be wondering if Rather than trying to save free speech, if Musk isn’t just trying to save Twitter itself, just as CNN tried to save itself by coming up with an actual business model. . Lol. The question then becomes what happened to all the endless flowing capital that was previously propping up these businesses?
If we can hurt Apple, my flaming liberal brother and his wife won’t be able to live day to day. They forgotten how to lock or unlock the doors, turn the radio on and choose a channel or turn the volume up or down, turn the lights on or off! I’m gonna love watching that! They can’t live without Alexa!
Hmmm…or maybe that’s Amazon or google. Those two should be next.
Then we need to find a way to cut off the money to DC.
Bwahahahahaha!
Ever tried dialing a rotary phone lately? Or rolling down a manual car window?
Hell, I can barely read my handwriting anymore because of computers and cellphone keyboards.
Talk about muscle memory loss!
Speaking of rotary dial phones, ever see the internet vids of young millennials trying to dial a number with a rotary phone? It is HILARIOUS!!! They can’t do it!!!
Used to vacation at a little cottage up north many years ago. Small town. There was a phone on the wall in the kitchen. Pick up the receiver, give the handle a crank, and Mable down at the general store would patch you through to the number you gave her. Just don’t be talking as you first pick up that receiver as there could be somebody else talking. It was a “party line”. Simple times. My blood pressure was a little lower back then….
I once came upon a very upset woman standing outside her car at an interstate rest stop.
She was on her phone complaining to someone that she was locked out of her car.
When I asked her if I could help, she told me that the battery in her key fob had died and she couldn’t get in her car.
I asked for her key fob and then inserted THE KEY into the door lock.
Imagine her surprise when the door magically opened.
She said, “Boy do I sure feel stupid!”
Hahaha! First question I asked when I bought my car. “How do you get the key out?”
Thank God for my late husband.
I did the same thing when I accidentally locked my car keys inside the trunk. When I called my husband to ask him to bring me a spare set of car keys, he asked me if the car door was unlocked. It was. Inside there was a lever to pop open the trunk.
Hell gettin old is all I can say for myself..
Retired Magistrate here: We still have a wall hung push button land line with an answering machine. It is great for screening unwanted solicitation calls.
We finally broke down several years ago and bought a flip phone to use for emergencies. We pay so much a year. It doesn’t have anything fancy on it. We hesitated for years to do even this; however, I have an older car which is prone to sometimes having problems on the road so it is nice to be able to call for help.
Alexa is Amazon, Siri is Apple, Google is google…
Hard to cut off money when they can print it.
What a birthday gift this year!!!
God Bless America 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Poor widdle Chris Wallace. Now where will he purse his lips and whine about “nationalism” and the “threat of extreme conservatism”? Bwahahaha!
If Chrissy whines but nobody listens is there sound?
Live look at CNN+

Post the Dark Maga Combat rules please.
Happy to enlist.
This has been areally good week for MAGA
CNN+(-CNN)= 0
MAGA>CNN
Love it when a plan comes together
Schadenfreude is delish!
Maybe Chrissy Wallace can go beg 60 Minutes for his daddy’s old job.
End all government subsidies for electric vehicles and ocean front home insurance.
How about just ‘end most of government subsidies’? Or maybe even cut the rot and end most of the federal government itself?
So I guess since CNN is underwritten by the deep state then they just lost 300 mil of our tax dollars. Imagine how little we would pay in taxes if all the grift and corruption was removed from our government.
Sundance!
With respect I have to disagree. The public reaction to various forms of left-leaning consumer media and entertainment is not because of the insignificant MAGA movement in any of its forms or variations.
The reason is simple. PUTIN!
Don’t rule out climate change.
“Some have called this ‘Dark MAGA‘!” I call it Illuminating MAGA!
Who has $300 million to piss away on a network that no one watches believing people will pay to stream what they don’t watch live for free? Not much different than the $150 million spent by Jeb Bush for 3 delegates! Someone explain that to me, where does all this money come from that is so easily wasted! I’m at a loss!
CNN died when we thought it should die… well not soon enough but when Jeff Zucker resigned. The remnants are simply trying to keep it alive and are lacking in the capital of public integrity.
CNN has started down the path of “MySpace.com.” It still lives but no longer seems to enjoy the full benefit of support it once had. And once the left determines you’re not longer a USEFUL idiot, you are soon discarded.
Its the Movement part of the MAGA Movement.
Kinetic MAGA
Tennessee GOP.
Hang on there… I’m still waiting in line to get into Disney… apparently they are lining up with torches and pitchforks.
Such great news on a beautiful day! I’m not sure why or how they thought this was ever going to work.
CNN will be reporting this on their TV network, right?
I mean, I know they’re all in non-stop on the War in Ukraine for the past month or so, but surely, this news deserves a few plugs here and there.
Nexflix was at $217.78 at 3pm Eastern, peaked at $700 November 2021. Loss, $700-218= $482/700=69%.
Death by millions of cuts.
x 455,000,000 shares outstanding.
Boom!
CNN has an inflated opinion of themselves. When content is free everywhere, why would they think people would want to pay to be lied to?
As far as Chris Wallace goes, watch Ryan hire him back, because Ryan hates Conservatives and the viewers of Fox.
Where did all the money go? I want to see a report. I think this was all just a scam to extract money from CNN before the sale to Discovery.
All I can say about everything in this article is this:
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha It’s about damn time!
That is all. Carry on.
Friendly reminder who started the push to sexualize the kids as early as kindergarten. No surprise. He’s the devil.
Planned Parenthood in there, too . . .
how can anyone have anything to do with PP when they have conducted an actual Holocaust of black babies and all the other babies =
why does PP want to be part of sexualizing little ones, to then be more messed up and potential “clients” of PP?
PP is a what I would call “retrograde”
what good do they really do? Nothing good!
And why should they getting all that tax money and money to lobbyists/politicians?
They really are as obsolete as the buggy whip –
or the KKK!
I have never seen generic Disney ads in my life. For the theme parks, or the movies, yes. But just… generic “Disney” ads? Nothing. Until about two-three weeks ago. Now they’re everywhere.
The brand is toxic – good job Wokies!!
GOOD and HARD, Woke Corps… GOOD and HARD!!!
Excellent news! I wish Mr. Musk all the best and hope he succeeds. More work must be done with apple, facecrook and google. The left must be relegated to the ash bin of history. Hopefully, the appeal regarding the mask mandate on planes, trains, etc. will be denied, Marjorie Taylor Greene will get that “insurrection” garbage thrown out and mark elias prosecuted.
It really is such wonderful news!
We also need to be monetarily different. Get rid of your credit cards. If you can’t afford it right now, you shouldn’t have it! CC debt just went to a trillion! Do what the Dems don’t do, and cut your cards up!
https://www.usdebtclock.org/
I don’t think you can rent a car without a credit card — kinda hard when you travel, or when your car is being repaired. We need something to serve that purpose that is private and can’t be arbitrarily cancelled.
