President-Elect Donald Trump is naming personnel for his incoming administration at a quick clip, so naturally the news media are fiending for ways to scandalize his picks as a warm-up to undermining the rest of his term. So here’s a good tip: This time around, whatever the media are telling the public to be scared, upset, or indignant about, safely assume the opposite of whatever they’re saying is true.

At this moment they’re attempting to convince their viewers and readers (especially Democrats in Congress) that Trump’s pick for defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, is a controversial one because Hegseth is most widely recognized as a morning host on Fox News. Jim Acosta on CNN spent several long minutes on Wednesday morning asking various guests if they were concerned that Hegseth is truly “qualified,” while intermittently showing video clips of Hegseth denouncing the U.S. military’s “woke” leadership. Acosta presumably finds that deeply problematic.

It’s not and Acosta is a dork. True, Hegseth isn’t a transgender like Admiral Rachel Levine, and it’s likely he’s not going to spend any time chasing non-existent white supremacists like the Defense Department’s current secretary, Lloyd Austin; but hey, he did serve in the Army National Guard with tours in Afghanistan and Iraq. Plus, he’s a graduate of Princeton and Harvard. It all must count for something if he wants to serve at the highest levels of government like that happy pair.

Our military is in a recruiting crisis, trifling with domestic “extremism,” and on standby as the Biden administration continues flirting with nuclear war in Eastern Europe. The media, though, will suggest the public take offense that Hegseth doesn’t believe women should participate in military combat. Don’t fall for it.

After President Biden was elected, the media ran headlines all over about the “adults” who were “back in charge.”

CNN: “Joe Biden’s message to Vladimir Putin? The adults are back in charge.”

The Hill: “Biden and the Border Patrol: So good to have the ‘adults’ back in charge”

Financial Times: “The grown-ups are back in charge in Washington.”

Well, four years later we know how that turned out. Voters decided they had enough of the “adults.” They couldn’t afford any more “adults.”

The truth is that there are no “adults.” What the media mean by “adults” is “officials who will conduct themselves in ways subservient to us and the permanent Washington bureaucracy.” Biden and his gang of “adults” excel at that, which is why the media moved mountains to keep him and then eventually his Democrat successor, Kamala Harris, in office.

And that’s precisely why all of the things the media will say and are saying about Trump and who he picks for his administration should be ignored, if not mocked. They squandered their credibility, and it should be a very, very long time before anyone even thinks about considering a word they say.

The media worked to divide the country and hype up fake drama for years. They manufactured racial controversy, Russia narratives, and pandemic hysteria. The fake drama led us to Biden’s presidency, a dark and unseemly period of American history. It was deadly. It proved fatal when Biden forced an unproven vaccine on the masses, botched the withdrawal from Afghanistan, and flooded the country with obscene numbers of destitute migrants, many of whom were known criminals.

And then as we all ran out of money, Biden, with the help of Republicans, sent hundreds of millions of dollars to Ukraine. For good measure, transgenders were put on public display at every available opportunity.

The media weren’t bothered by any of it. But they expect you to be upset about Trump. Just ignore it.
