(Fresno) Jason Kassel, PhD (secular Democratic candidate) 2024 5th District congressional candidate challenging Christian Nationalist Republican Tom “Marjorie Taylor Greene” McClintock (whose supporters include the entirety of QAnon, Proud Boys, and Oath Keepers) released the following statement.
“A secular politician enters a race for Congress at a severe disadvantage. It is a fact that the woke He Gets Us Christian Nationalist biased media covers for the Republican Party’s growing radicalization. While story after story is written about the Republican Party’s absolute turn towards a violent, authoritarian, and religiously inspired movement to fundamentally alter American life, there is never any consistent use of that information.
“The woke He Gets Us Christian Nationalist biased media is owned by Christian Nationalist supporters such as John Malone (influential owner of CNN and Warner Brothers +Discovery) and the Murdoch family (Fox empire). In fact, virtually all owners within the American media monopoly support Republican candidates and encourage their Christian Nationalist behavior. Will local, state, or national media ever cover this story consistently? Probably not. Why? Because of the power these woke He Gets Us Christian Nationalist billionaires.
“During the SuperBowl, Elon Musk (owner of Twitter) sat next to Murdoch. Did any stories emerge about a big tech collusion? Have there been any sustained stories, where reporters learn new facts and then consistently apply and use that knowledge in new stories, about Musk’s tweet supporting the Republicans before the election, the congressional Twitter Files hearings, and his close relationship with Murdoch? Is the woke He Gets Us Christian Nationalist biased media telling people that the Twitter Files Hearings are fake? Or, are the reporters they pay PR flacks who simply write down words without doing journalism?
“While the Christian Nationalist Republican Party attempts to hypnotize America with their Committee on Whining About Federal Grievances, the woke He Gets Us Christian Nationalist biased media pays reporters to write down words while the Christian Nationalist Republican Party openly colludes with Big Tech and weaponizes government.
“When reporters regurgitate the phrase “liberal media,” call Republicans “conservative,” or use “weaponization of government” without asking questions (or even ‘Democrat candidate’ instead of ‘Democratic candidate’) they act as PR flacks and ignore how delusional, bizarre, and dangerous the Christian Nationalist Republican Party is for true Americans who are secular. This is part of the playbook the woke He Gets Us Christian Nationalist biased media owners have followed for decades. This Christian Nationalist bias makes it more difficult for a secular challenger to succeed against Tom ‘Marjorie Taylor Greene’ McClintock, a 40 year Christian Nationalist Republican supported by terrorists, a violent paramilitary force, and an anti-government militia.”
