WaPo’s ‘Analysis’ Of The Minneapolis Shooting Is Propaganda

Don’t believe your lying eyes.

That’s effectively what the hoax-peddling Washington Post told its readers when it ran what can only be surmised as the most dishonest piece of left-wing propaganda published (so far) this year.

Splattered across the top of the outlet’s homepage on Thursday was an ” analysis” titled, “Video shows ICE agent in Minneapolis fired at driver as vehicle veered past him.” (An earlier version of the article had the headline, “ICE agent was not in the vehicle’s path when he fired at driver, video shows.”)

Right from the get-go, it’s clear that make-pretend “reporters” Aaron Davis and Jonathan Baran aren’t trying to inform their audience of what actually happened but are instead seeking to advance the Democrat Party’s anti-ICE agenda.

Upon navigating the Orwellian article, readers are immediately bombarded with the presumption that the Trump administration’s central (and well-documented) claim — that the now-deceased woman disobeyed ICE and then hit an agent with her car — is false. In typical legacy media fashion, Davis and Baran play up such framing by asserting that their “frame-by-frame analysis” “raises questions” about the administration’s account of the incident.

“The SUV did move toward the ICE agent as he stood in front of it. But the agent was able to move out of the way and fire at least two of three shots from the side of the vehicle as it veered past him, according to the analysis,” the propaganda-style article reads.

The authors then take readers on a trip through different video frames of the moment in question, in which they even call into question the documented fact that the agent was hit by the suspect’s vehicle. With little hesitation, they write, “Videos examined by The Post, including one shared on Truth Social by Trump, do not clearly show whether the agent is struck or how close the front of the vehicle comes to striking him.”

Really? Readers are supposed to believe that?

It doesn’t take much searching online to find video footage of the incident definitively showing that the agent who fired the shots was, in fact, hit by the suspect with her car. And not just side-swiped either. It was a head-on collision that could’ve severely injured or killed him.

But according to Davis and Baran, this is simply all speculation. “No need to rush to judgement until the fraud-plagued Minnesota authorities can tell us what really happened,” or so the mindless media thinking goes.

The reality is that Davis and Baran are journalists in the same way that Richard Levine is a woman. Both parties are living in a fantasy land where lies hold dominion over truth and playing dress-up is more fun than living in the real world.

In the case of Davis and Baran, they’re attempting to masquerade as hard-hitting reporters while actually serving as sycophants for the Democrat Party. The unfortunate news for them is, much like with Levine’s wannabe woman gambit, they’re really bad at pulling it off.
