But with rare exception, the response from the mainstream media’s pundit class has been largely muted, with the vast bulk of the coverage coming in the form of he said/she said, down-the-middle reporting. This is in stark contrast with how elite opinion-shapers responded with uniform outrage in the days after Trump’s also dubious raid on John Bolton, his former national security adviser and a neoconservative commentator, in August 2025. Both are part of a consistent pattern of Trump weaponizing the Department of Justice to attack his perceived enemies, yet only the latter solicited widespread media condemnation.

… The reasons for this glaring discrepancy are likely many: Omar is Black and Muslim, Bolton is white and not. Omar is a woman, Bolton is a man. Omar is considered “far left,” Bolton is squarely in the center-right of elite Washington consensus. Omar is a harsh critic of Israel, and Bolton is among its most overtly and bloodthirsty champions. The reality is it’s almost certainly a combination of all these factors. Writ large, Bolton is a member of The Club, and Omar isn’t.

When even OBAMA has the courage to draw fascist ire with the unapologetically correct take and the msm is still silent, that silence is deafening.

And that's their goal. To make us all deaf to the injustices they support.

Here's a hint, American elites are racist and Islamophobic as hell.

A nation so controlled by its media, it gets mad at the media for not covering stuff instead of the source of the stuff...

easy targets, muslim=easy msm outrage as the boogeyman as a "terrorist"
