It seems like every time you turn on a liberal media outlet, you hear some new way that conservatives are a threat to our democracy. Well, CNN and PBS recently joined forces to push this narrative with a segment on the show Amanpour & Co. featuring CNN Supreme Court analyst Joan Biskupic.
In the segment, Biskupic was invited to promote her new book, Nine Black Robes: Inside the Supreme Court’s Drive to the Right and its Historic Consequences. She indulged in liberal fearmongering about alleged conservative judicial activism, while ignoring decades of actual liberal judicial activism.
The news hook was a ProPublica investigation into Clarence Thomas taking luxury trips with a wealthy Republican donor. Biskupic stretched Thomas’s alleged ritzy trips to suggest they threatened the “trust” of the American public. Host Bianna Golodryga then asked if there was a “crisis in trust” in the Court.
Biskupic laid the blame on the liberal-lamented Dobbs decision reversing Roe v. Wade, ignoring the fact that Roe v. Wade was a liberal judicial activist ruling. She then faulted Chief Justice Roberts for being “on the conservative side to rollback racial remedies…lowering the wall of separation between church and state”.
It’s ridiculous that Democrats and liberal media outlets are so quick to attack black conservatives like Clarence Thomas, while ignoring the blatant liberal judicial activism that has been going on for decades. It’s just another example of how the left will go to any lengths to push their agenda and demonize anyone who doesn’t fit into their narrative.
It’s time for us to stand up and say enough is enough. We need to call out the liberal media for their lies and disinformation and push back against their unfair attacks on black conservatives. It’s time to put an end to their attempts to rewrite history and control the public’s perception of the Supreme Court by bringing outrageous segments like this into the light.
