The great historian Daniel J. Boorstin coined the phrase “pseudo-events” to describe the modern contrivances between politicians and the press that have the semblance of news but remain artificial and choreographed. Welcome to the era of “pseudo-crimes” where there is no underlying criminal act, only an endless investigation with the sole purpose of an indictment,… Continue reading Donald Trump and the creation of pseudo-crimes
The former President earned the ire of both progressives and moderate conservatives for stating the obvious that his indictment on seven-year old charges would cause “potential death & destruction,” but pointing out the truth should never be out of bounds, nor has it ever been in our history.
