Posted • January 23, 2025: The press obsession with January 6th has continued apace despite the total repudiation at the ballot box they received in November. With President Donald Trump pardoning most participants, many of which were unfairly targeted for crimes that never should have been charged, in a court jurisdiction that made sure the game was rigged against them, the hand-wringing has only grown. As I wrote just after Trump emerged victorious against Kamala Harris, Americans simply do not care about January 6th anymore. They have moved on to issues that actually affect their everyday lives, and the continued virtue-signaling about it from the press has become obnoxious and tone-deaf. “The bigger point here is that no one cares. Americans want cheaper groceries and to be able to buy a house. They aren't prioritizing the virtue-signaling of left-wingers in Washington over their own well-being. That shouldn't shock anyone, though it seems to be mind-blowing for the mainstream press and Democrat politicians.”

Of course, while that's obvious to most people, no one has ever accused mainstream journalists of being perceptive. That brings me to a confrontation Marjorie Taylor Greene had with a reporter who was hounding her about January 6th. Forget about whether you like Taylor Greene or not. I don't blame people for thinking she's been a little out there at times, but what she says here is something everyone needs to watch every second of because it's bigger than the person saying it. Put your biases against her aside and watch this video of Marjorie Taylor-Greene dealing with a reporter hounding her about January 6th. Just watch it. Every second of it. -- I want to note the question that is asked. This reporter's first thought about January 6th isn't whether some people deserved a pardon or not. It's not whether the Department of Justice unfairly targeted people with charges they never would have charged in any other situation.

It's not that the court system and a series of judges made it clear that no one was going to be allowed to mount a real defense. No, this reporter is concerned that Taylor Greene might give some of those pardoned a "tour" of the Capitol. To be clear, there's no indication at all that the congresswoman was planning to do that. What this reporter is doing is pushing a debunked conspiracy theory that certain Republicans gave "tours" to people who participated in January 6th before the riot broke out, with the presumption being they were in on it somehow. But as Taylor Greene colorfully points out, people are sick and tired of this stuff. January 6th was four years ago. It is no longer a factor in American life, and if voters cared anymore, they never would have re-elected Donald Trump. What else can you add to that? Taylor Greene was speaking for a lot of people there. This country has real problems to work through.

None of them are solved by press outlets continuing to scream "January 6th" every other sentence. Because they keep doing so is exactly why the legacy media has its lowest approval and trust ratings in history. No one believes these people are sincere anymore. They see them as dishonest activists because that's exactly what they are. (…)
