Ever since the morning after Election Day 2016, the Democrat Party and their media lapdogs have been obsessing over the idea of collusion -- as you well know.

Well, Fox News host Laura Ingraham gives us her "take" on collusion here -- and needless to say, she's not talking about Russia.

Trump has exposed the real collusion – It's between the media and open-border Democrats

On Tuesday, I told you how President Trump exposed the Democrats' true shutdown motives - namely, the Democrats love the partial government shutdown because they think it helps them politically, which is why they refuse to move even an inch on the issue of wall funding. On Wednesday, the president exposed the media's motives in this drama as well.

Rather than giving us in-depth, objective reporting on the effects of illegal immigration on average Americans --all of you out there, on your jobs, on your schools, on your safety and on your health -- the media spend their airtime parroting Democrat attacks on the president's character and motives. Now, before the president's speech Tuesday night, the media vowed to do their insta fact-checking - they wanted to do this in real-time.

Well, the fact-check squad didn't fare too well. I would have rather had the Mod Squad, frankly. In the aftermath of the Oval Office address, the media collapsed away from the fact-checks into old tropes and well some awkward admissions. What happened to the fact check? They just devolved into "Well, he [President Trump] looked tired."

The media's latest tactic -- and we're going to see more of it in the coming days -- is to re-feature the sob stories of government workers, who still, by the way, have not missed a paycheck. Well, watch carefully on what they're doing here. Rank emotional manipulation. Pure propaganda. Now, how many of these segments did they do over the years on American workers who got pushed out of entire industries as unscrupulous employers hire them for cash or at a fraction of the salary. How many close-up interviews of victims of illegal alien crime did they do? By the way, those people aren't experiencing a temporary loss of income, but a permanent loss of a family member.

 

Etc. It's a good article. Laura's a good analyst. I think she might have gone farther and taken up Rush Limbaugh's contention that, in fact, the media -- what he likes to call the "Drive-By Media" -- actually drives the Democrat Party's agenda. Whether or not it's actually true, I think it's obvious that the media is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Democrat Party.

I wonder if Laura isn't being redundant when she says "open-border Democrats." Is there another kind?
