The anti-Trump front likes to present itself as the very definition of decency. In reality, they stand for calculated malice, a systematic attempt to overthrow a democratically elected president. The fake news media are everything Trump says they are. But it takes time and effort to expose them in a country where all the media move as a pack.
Even iNyheter — Norway’s second-largest alternative news outlet after Document — chose to distance itself from Trump after the Iran war, claiming he had made the United States weak.
Only Document remains as a defender of the greatest president of modern times.
It does not require very much effort to understand Trump’s strategy. It is enough to listen to the short videos of the historian Victor Davis Hanson. Had Trump been as derailed and insane as the Norwegian media would have it, VDH would have exposed him long ago. Instead, he explains that Trump is a brilliant player who may achieve something in the Middle East that previously one could only dream of. Both versions cannot be true.
You are not permitted to read anything positive about Trump in the Norwegian media, which are heavily afflicted by Trump Derangement Syndrome, TDS, a serious visual disorder that transforms journalists into ideological soldiers on assignment 24/7: to brainwash the public into becoming Trump-haters.
Part of the ideology is a cynical calculation: The media publish only that which advances their narrative. They boycott what runs counter to it. That is why you hear nothing about the new Democratic politicians who flirt with violence and revolution.
Like Hasan Piker.
Hasan Piker, the new star of the Democratic Party, says that if the will of the people is not respected, then violent revolution is all that remains. He says this in a comment concerning the Supreme Court in Virginia having rejected the referendum on the boundaries of new electoral districts.
“The Supreme Court has undermined the Voting Rights Act, and Tennessee has carved up the last Democratic district and thereby destroyed the influence of black voters in the state,” Piker wrote on X. “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable.”
The violence-inclined Democratic politicians and influencers are something the Norwegian media choose to omit, since it would complicate their narrative. It becomes more difficult to maintain a one-dimensional picture of who are the good and who are the bad in the United States.
Newspapers such as VG and Aftenposten do the opposite: They carry the war into Trump’s territory and attack that which has given him increased sympathy: the assassination attempts. Suddenly they bring forward voices such as Tucker Carlson now that he has turned against Trump.
But they say nothing about what sort of development Tucker has undergone. Particularly with regard to his relationship with Israel.
It is an antiseptic reality that VG presents. That Tucker wants to genetically test Jews in order to determine whether they belong to the group entitled to Israel would disturb the image of him as rational.
The same applies to his speculations about the assassination attempts against Trump. When Tucker begins speculating about whether Butler on 13 July 2024 could have been staged, since we have heard so little about the perpetrator, VG misses the point: There was something strange about Butler, but it was not Trump who stood behind it; it was the forces within the system that want him dead, what we call the deep state.
Tucker’s development is tragic. But VG knows what it is doing.
Long ago they rid themselves of the requirements to which decent journalists are subject, namely to report the truth, however unpleasant it may be.
Congressman Tim Burchett from Tennessee is interviewed by Joe Rogan, and they address the insinuations that Trump himself stands behind the attempts on his life.
Podcaster Joe Rogan spoke on Thursday with Congressman Tim Burchett about the repeated assassination attempts against President Donald Trump, and claimed that the media’s “Trump Derangement Syndrome” is partly to blame.
Although the recently alleged assassination attempt against Trump during the WHCA dinner was shocking in itself, it is now the latest in a series of attempts stretching back to the incident in Butler, Pennsylvania, in 2024. Just as some commentators claim that the WHCA incident was staged to advance Trump’s vision of a ballroom in the White House, some sceptics still question the first assassination attempt.
“There are many out there saying that the first attempt on Trump was staged, that it was a hoax, and that Trump did it to make people more sympathetic towards him,” Rogan said while speaking with Burchett. “No one saying this has any knowledge of weapons.”
Rogan mocked the notion that Trump would have arranged to come within a hair’s breadth of death, saying: “There is not a single person on Earth who can reliably clip your ear from 130 metres away.”
Those who push these speculations forward and pretend they are merely quoting, such as VG and Aftenposten, know what they are doing. They deserve no forgiveness. They are the poisoners of the well in public discourse.
For they do not discuss the great darkness that consists of the indications that Butler was orchestrated. That is what Burchett believes.
Burchett claimed that the catastrophic security failure during the first assassination attempt should be regarded as a deliberate “capitulation”, not a “breakdown” in security.
“If Tim Burchett sneaks backstage at a Lynyrd Skynyrd concert and gets close to the stage, that’s a ‘breakdown’,” Burchett joked, arguing that what happened in Butler, Pennsylvania, was “a total capitulation”.
“They put Trump out there, and there are people who do not like him,” the congressman warned. “You can say whatever you want about programming and such, I just think it’s out there. I think it’s a reality, and I think we should … that people should wake up.”
Rogan saw through the media long ago. They are engaged in a deliberate radicalisation of people.
Rogan went on specifically to single out the media, claiming that they radicalise people who lack the time actually to examine the nuanced truth about various people and events for themselves.
“People hate him so intensely, and the narrative in the media – this ‘Trump confusion narrative’ one sees in the media – is so dominant, and people are so influenced by it,” Rogan said. “And for the average person who has a very demanding job, you work all day, and then you have a family, and you have a life, and you do not have time really to go deeply into what is real and what is not real.”
Rogan went on to criticise the media for the way they speak about Trump, claiming that they radicalise people to a point where “you’ve had Russiagate shoved down your throat by the mainstream media for years, and you believe every bit of it 100 per cent, and then you genuinely thought that he is a terrible person, a Russian agent, all these different – so you want somebody to kill him.”

Norwegian, Danish and Swedish media have been even worse than the American media. The United States has eventually acquired a strong alternative media ecosystem. It is The New York Times and The Washington Post that are declining. CNN has now been purchased by David Ellison, as has CBS News, so there are going to be changes.
Then the media will write that Trump is corrupting the media by allowing his wealthy friends to buy them up.
They would rather have Mamdani and Hasan Piker, both Muslims.
When VG wrote a factual article about Charlie Kirk, the word “Christianity” was mentioned once.
Christ is the word they avoid most of all. That says everything about what VG stands for.
The same applies to the treatment of Russiagate: VG has mentioned the word four times in ten years. In passing.
They make certain to avoid informing readers about the greatest political scandal in American history, so that they may continue portraying Trump as insane.
The media’s coverage establishes the norm within the Norwegian elite, which has also become anti-American and anti-Israeli within only a few years. What previously characterised the far left has become mainstream, and that is what pupils in schools are taught.
This is how the radicalisation of Norway takes place from within. By the time we discover the fruits of it, it is too late.
