Here’s Another Example of How the Media/Dem Narrative Machine Works (This Time About the Iran Strike) – Twitchy

We see examples of the “media and Democrat narrative Circle of Life” on an almost daily basis, and we kick off a new week with the Left attempting to criticize the U.S. strikes inside Iran over the weekend. 

Some Democrats are claiming Trump didn’t inform members of Congress about the strikes while others are sounding like apologists for the Iranian regime. Trump press secretary Karoline Leavitt cited one instance where she said the White House tried to inform the House Minority Leader about the strikes but guess who didn’t answer:

Meanwhile, the media, in this case the New York Times, is providing fodder via the usual “anonymous sources” for Democrats like Sen. Chris Murphy: 

So we DIDN’T destroy Fordo and we ARE doing regime change?

How are there proponents of this anymore? pic.twitter.com/ETP7XT8KgS

Joe Concha has seen this approach before, as have we: 

This is how it works. The NYT cites an anonymous “senior U.S. official” who may not exist or may be working against the Trump administration, and a sitting U.S. senator who has been rooting for this mission to fail cites the report as fact. https://t.co/71FeCKnM9v

We all see thru this stuff now. Same applies as you watch liberal @BloombergTV , @CNBC @SkyNews @BBCWorld the biases are quite obvious.

It gets old but that doesn’t stop them from trying. 

The United States military thanks you for your support. 🙄🙄

We’re used to Sen. Murphy being quick to side with the terrorists for “Trump bad” reasons.
