    Skeptics Parse NBC News Statement After Employee Accused Of Tailing Rittenhouse Jurors Bus - Skeptics are accusing NBC News of attempting to mislead in a Thursday statement after police alleged an MSNBC freelancer was following the bus of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial jury.

    Wisconsin circuit court Judge Bruce Schroeder banned MSNBC from his courthouse on Thursday after police caught and cited a man for a traffic violation claiming to be with the network tailing the jury’s sealed bus. The man said he was under orders from a higher-up at the network in New York, according to authorities.

    NBC News, a sister network to MSNBC, admitted that the man involved in the incident was a freelancer for MSNBC. NBC News denied that the man was tailing the bus, contrary to what he told police, according to authorities. NBC News also claimed that the freelancer never intended to contact jurors “during deliberations.”

    “Last night, a freelancer received a traffic citation. While the traffic violation took place near the jury van, the freelancer never contacted or intended to contact the jurors during deliberations, and never photographed or intended to photograph them,” NBC News said in a statement. “We regret the incident and will fully cooperate with the authorities on any investigation.”

    The “during deliberations” phrase of the statement received attention and criticism online as reporters and others suggested that NBC was trying to mislead and cover for sending a freelancer after the Rittenhouse trial jurors.

    “*During deliberations*,” said Erielle Davidson, a senior policy analyst at the Jewish Institute for National Security of America. “Full intent on seeing the jurors and contacting them after deliberations. Given the media’s generally grotesque coverage of this trial, at what point does such behavior amount to intimidation?”

    Radio host Vince Coglianese remarked, “NBC promises the guy they had following the jury never intended to do anything related to journalism.”

    “He said he was told to follow them. This statement doesn’t address that,” Tablet Magazine CTO Noam Blum said, referring to the freelancer’s statement to police.

    NBC News did not immediately respond to a request for clarification from The Daily Wire.

    Schroeder announced that he had banned MSNBC from the courthouse on Thursday after receiving a report from police.

    “The matter is under further investigation at this point, and the media has asked questions about it. That’s the latest I have,” Schroeder said. “He was ticketed for violating a traffic control signal. He is not here today, from what I’m told, and I have instructed that no one from MSNBC News will be permitted in this building for the duration of this trial.”

    The judge added that the matter would be referred to the “proper authorities” for further investigation.

    “This is a very serious matter, and I don’t know what the ultimate truth of it is, but absolutely it would go without much thinking that someone who is following a jury bus, that’s an extremely serious matter and will be referred to the proper authorities for further action,” he said.

    The Marxist Shit Show

    The Marxist Shit Show

    Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky said that President Joe Biden’s vaccine coercion mandates will effectively “destroy our economy” and put thousands of Americans out of work.

    “We’re about to destroy our economy if Biden follows through with these vaccine mandates,” Massie said on “The Truth with Lisa Boothe” on Thursday.

    Massie said one of the industries most affected by this mandate is the trucking industry, which is already suffering a supply-chain crisis created by government-mandated lockdowns and exacerbated by the Biden administration’s economic policies.

    “I just came from a roundtable in my transportation and infrastructure committee. … We had experts from the industry that deals with the supply chain, trucking experts, the people who unload the shipping containers,” Massie said. “And one of the things they keyed in on, is the contractor mandate kicks in on December 8th … and then there’s this OSHA mandate, that’s going to come out. What I learned is that 37 percent of truckers say they will retire, quit or find another job if they are required to get the vaccine as a result of the federal contractor mandate or the OSHA mandate.”

    Massie said that even if just a fraction of those follow through and are forced out of their jobs, “this would be a supply chain disaster of epic proportions and we will suffer from inflation shortages.”

    “We’ll go back to where we were 18 months ago, where they were euthanizing animals because they couldn’t get them processed, you know, livestock for food. It will be a dystopian future if Biden follows through, and people will suffer all across the country if he follows through with these mandates, just on truckers, that’s not even talking about all the other people that are being mandated or about to be mandated,” Massie said.

    Massie also noted that getting the COVID shot doesn’t prevent virus transmission so even mandating it won’t eliminate the risk of workers contracting it.

    “This vaccine, nobody is any longer claiming, not even the CDC, and especially not the CDC, that this stops people from giving COVID to other people. In fact, there is a study that shows that the vaccinated are giving it to the vaccinated inside of healthcare settings,” he said. “There is no logical imperative for the government to force that on somebody, unless they are your legal guardian. The only person who could make the decision to take a drug or a treatment is the person themselves or their legal guardian. But the situation we’re in, is the government is pretending that they are our legal guardian now, or that they own us like livestock, and that we’re receiving the treatment, not to protect other people, but to protect ourselves. But they’re the ones prescribing it.”

    Massie said the government now holds the power and “they own us at that point.”

    “This is why they changed the definition of vaccination in September. They are slowly boiling the frog by changing definitions in order to meet their mandates because their mandate isn’t ethical, moral, constitutional, or even scientific in the context of your performance of this vaccine. So they have to change the definition, the words, and that’s what they’ve been doing. And they may soon change the definition of fully vaccinated to exclude people who had two jabs,” he said.

    During a House Committee on Transportation & Infrastructure subcommittee hearing this week, Massie questioned whether the Biden administration has directed agencies to grant religious exemptions to the COVID-19 vaccine mandate.

    “Have you received any guidance from the Biden administration on how to process these requests, given that the law requires that religious accommodations be made to the vaccine mandate?” Massie asked officials at the General Services Administration.

    Biden’s Inflation Problem?

    Biden’s Inflation Problem?

    The annual inflation rate in the US edged up to a 13-year high of 5.4% in September of 2021 from 5.3% in August and above market expectations of 5.3%. Main upward pressure came from cost of shelter (3.2% vs 2.8% in August); food (4.6% vs 3.7%, the highest since December of 2011), namely food at home (4.5% vs 3%); new vehicles (8.7% vs 7.6%); and energy (24.8% vs 25%). On the other hand, prices eased for used cars and trucks (24.4% percent vs 31.9%); transportation services (4.4% vs 4.6%); apparel (3.4% vs 4.2%); and medical care services (0.9% vs 1%). On a monthly basis, consumer prices advanced 0.4%, above forecasts of 0.3%, with the indexes for food and shelter contributing more than half of the monthly increase. The core index which excludes food and energy went up 0.2% month over month and 4% year over year, the same as in August and in line with forecasts.
