You\u2019d get fired, terminated, 86\u2019d, and Schiff-canned. But not the mainstream media. The media hacks failed for two years-plus, nonstop and without equivocation, but are they ever going to be held to account? No, they\u2019re just going to gather in a big circle and Pulitzer each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine you committed a racial hate crime where you falsely accused people who didn\u2019t look or think like you of a horrible atrocity, and that you\u2019d have gladly picked some poor saps with the wrong skin tone out of a line-up and sent them to prison for decades given the chance. Now imagine the two half-wits you hired to help you managed to get caught on video buying their stereotype get-up and spilled it all to the fuzz, though the fact you paid them with a check \u2013&nbsp;<em>because you\u2019re a criminal mastermind&nbsp;<\/em>\u2013 was already enough to get a grand jury to indict your sorry AOC. Now, what are the chances the DA is going to transform your 16 felony counts into a $10K fine and a couple days community servicing? Your chances of said outcome are poor. They are poor because your pals are neither Mrs. Obama or Willie Brown\u2019s gal pal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now imagine that you studied really hard while the rich kids partied and smoked dope and splattered water on you by running their BMWs through puddles as you walked home from high school. Imagine your last name is \u201cChang,\u201d or that your dad is a soldier and not a hedge fund manager, or that your mom is a waitress and not a TV bimbo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;\u2026click on the above link to read the rest of the article\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You\u2019re A Sucker For Not Believing That The System Is Rigged Source: Photo by Richard Shotwell\/Invision\/AP Imagine you spent two years completely screwing up at your job, I mean not merely getting every single thing wrong but loudly, proudly getting in everyone else\u2019s face about how right you are.
