The media keeps pushing a narrative about an "altercation" that happened during Trump's visit to Arlington. It's all bull.

You know, sometimes the Fake News cartel just gets to you.

THIS is what the front page of Google News looks like this morning.

Notice anything?

Days later, we're still talking about Trump's visit to Arlington National Cemetary: an event he was asked to attend by families of the 13 fallen troops who died during the botched Afghanistan withdrawal.

It was a touching moment.

But since then, the corporate media has refused to cover the REAL story of how these men and women were forgotten and dishonored by Biden-Harris.

Instead, they want to focus on a supposed "altercation" between Arlington staff and some of Trump's entourage.

Here's the story that TAXPAYER-FUNDED NPR was pushing:

As this type of thing works, one outlet broke the attack angle and then everyone circled the wagons.

  • The story is not that Trump honored troops who died on Biden/Harris's watch while Biden and Harris were nowhere to be seen (Biden is on his second week of vacation).

  • The story is that Trump's people bullied an Arlington employee.

As you might have guessed, it's all a lie.

Here's how Greg Price summarized the actual established facts:

It is bizarre that hundreds of Trump-deranged journos were present and NO ONE saw this happen or could corroborate this story.

It's most likely, as Greg explains, that an Arlington employee may have freaked and tried to get Trump's team to stop taking photos, not knowing they had permission.

Thursday's story from the NY Times says Trump's videos from the event showed a gravesite in section 60 that he wasn't allowed to video or photograph. However, this has nothing to do with the supposed altercation. It's just more poop-stirring.

They dug through the video, found a name on a gravestone, and tracked down the family and asked, "Do you hate Trump? Because we can turn this into bad press if you just say you feel disrespected."

And they turned THAT into the story.

The Times even acknowledges that the employee who complained about Trump's team wasn't interested in filing charges.

In the aftermath of the Monday altercation, the Army has closed the matter, after the Arlington official declined to press charges. According to three U.S. military officials, some Trump campaign members confronted and eventually pushed past the cemetery official when she tried to stop them from taking photos in Section 60.

Again, "pushed past" ... when they were given explicit permission to enter Section 60.

It's all a nothingburger.

And that is the state of the modern propaganda machine.
