‘MORE media lies’: Looks like there’s a whole lot MORE to story about Catholic students ‘harassing’ Native American protester
Posted at 7:57 am on January 20, 2019 by Sam J.

If the social media mob comes for you, it’s something you will never EVER forget. Whether a story is true or not (and it’s starting to look like this latest outrage they’re screeching about may NOT be true), they will do anything and everything they can to ruin the person, their family, and anyone and everyone who knows them.

Even if they’re a high school kid.

The story of the Covington Catholic students allegedly harassing a Native American protester was the HUGE story on Saturday, magically replacing Buzzfeed’s disastrous and incredibly embarrassing debacle about Trump/Cohen and the Trump Tower in Moscow. Color us shocked at how quickly the media can make this stuff disappear … *adjusts tinfoil hat*

Full videos have been shared on social media, plus texts from the students and an entire statement claiming that what is being pushed by the media and the social media mob is a bunch of BS.

Let’s start with Jim Hanson:

More Media Lies

There was no #MAGA mob hounding a Native American
Mult Native Americans instigated an incident walking into a peaceful group of kids & taunting one chanting & drumming inches fm his face

No one said "Build the Wall"
& if anything
That kid deserves a peace medal

And, here's a story from The Spectator:

What makes a liberal want to punch a child?

The progressive media doesn't care about what really happened when it has white boys in MAGA caps to hate

Daniel McCarthy

If someone walks up to you and bangs a drum in your face, are you guilty of harassing the drummer? You might be if you’re white and wearing a MAGA hat. Just a day after rushing to judgment about a BuzzFeed story that claimed President Trump had instructed Michael Cohen to lie to Congress — a story Robert Mueller’s own office subsequently debunked, the blue-checkmark media elite had a new instant narrative to promote. It was a tale perfectly tailored to liberal biases: white Catholic teenagers in MAGA hats had harassed an old and frail Indian veteran during the March for Life, which was also the date of an Indigenous People’s March.

(https://spectator.us/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Covboy-e1547990052123.jpg?auto=compress,enhance,format&crop=faces,entropy,edges&fit=crop&w=768&h=438)

​BuzzFeed had just two anonymous sources, purportedly in ‘law-enforcement,’ for its story, which a few brave souls found to be rather too little to justify the attendant hype. The contrarians appear to have been right, but what BuzzFeed misreported was so perfectly attuned to elite and progressive anti-Trump sensibilities that no hesitation was necessary before accepting the tale as true.

No lessons were learned from the story’s collapse, either, to judge by the frenzy that next broke out from the same sort of people over the case of Covington Catholic High School and Native American activist Nathan Phillips. Once again, enlightened opinion did not wait on much evidence before reaching a verdict: a one-minute video clip of a teen in a red MAGA hat smirking right in front of Phillips while the elder beat a hand drum and sang was all the proof required. This was a hate-motivated outrage perpetrated by white Trump supporters. Case closed...

The Media Lied to Punish Kids for Wearing MAGA Hats



DIARY / Wrongthink Radio //  Posted at 1:52 am on January 20, 2019 by Wrongthink Radio

A video went viral on the internet Saturday morning showing a group of kids from Covington Catholic school supposedly surrounding a group of Native Americans while wearing MAGA hats. The media, and unfortunately, even some Conservatives immediately clutched their pearls and began virtue signaling about how inappropriate the children were acting and condemning the actions. I am upset to see Conservatives so quick to buy what a Democrat controlled media is selling.

Within a matter of hours, after main stream media began sharing the story and attempting to identify the students several videos from different angles were released and once again we see the media selectively editing reality to fit a narrative, and this time it was to punish children for supporting the President and the March for Life. The students from Covington High school were in DC for the March for life and were waiting for their bus home at the Lincoln memorial, that is when noted activist Nathan Phillips approached the group of students, cameras ready, and began beating his ceremonial drum in the face of one of the students. Nathan Phillips is known to decry racism at the drop of a hat, and is nothing more than a liberal outrage artist.

It's too bad the Right to Life activists and protesters surrounding the drum-beater have no self-awareness.  At least not enough to see how a defiant mob of chanting and laughing MAGA hats around a single old man of color looks.

Maybe you should try looking at the innumerable videos and first-hand accounts published on the worldwide interweb, which show that drum guy was the provocateur in this incident and the kids did nothing wrong.

Anyone who doesn't like the one kid's "smirk," might consider how they would have responded when they were 16 if an older man had approached, started pounding a drum (with dozens of people standing behind him taking video) and then started railing, "You white people go back to Europe, this is not your land." The boy looks nervous to me.

Personally this incident really illustrates the media in all its dishonest, disgusting glory. Anyone buying into their lies at this point simply wants to be misled. I believe its called blind hatred.

Flashback: Before Smearing and Harassing Catholic Children – Native American Nathan Phillips Accused Frat Boys of Harassment in Similar Event
by Jim Hoft January 20, 2019

BuzzFeed and the hateful left-wing media is at it again — these MAGA teens were doxxed and are now in fear for their lives!

On Friday, a group of high school boys from Kentucky went to the Lincoln Memorial after attending the March For Life.

While standing at the memorial a Native American activist, Nathan Phillips, approached the boys and started harassing them.

Phillips, reportedly a Vietnam veteran, got up in one boy’s face and started screaming and beating his drum inches from the boy’s face.

According to one of the high school boys who was present, a group of black men were taunting the Trump supporters, calling them “shooters” and “crackers” and said the white kids “had everything given to them by their parents.”

According to a witness, it was at this point that a Native American man showed up “out of nowhere” and began drumming in the high school kid’s face.

“We weren’t even chanting at him, we were chanting at the African American guy, but obviously social media made us look bad to get views and stuff,” a witness said.

Video of the black men harassing the teenage Trump supporters:

I would have to agree somewhat. 

It's either blind hatred (of Trump and anyone on the right).... or it's sublime ignorance and stupidity (perhaps due to years and years of indoctrination and brainwashing).

You can clearly see from the first video (first post in this thread).... that the indian drummer walked into the crowd of MAGA hat-wearers.... and started drumming right in that kid's face and space.  So to comment "as they surrounded him" is a blatant effing lie.   That lie is on you.

That said, if you were peacefully demonstrating somewhere and some bleep came up to you and started chanting and drumming 'in your face' like that... what would you do?   I would probably start chanting something like "screw lefties" (lol) right back AT him in his face, but that's just me.

Funny how the idiot left always preaches 'against bullying'... but time and time again when we hear about stories like this.... it's always the idiot left doing the bullying.

SOB has a serious case of "meth mouth",too.

Rush to judgment? New details emerge on Native American elder's standoff with MAGA-hat-wearing teens
by Naomi Lim
 | January 20, 2019 03:51 PM



New details about a viral video that showed an interaction between white teenagers wearing "Make America Great Again" hats and a Native American elder are leading some people to second-guess their first impression of the encounter.

A student from Kentucky's all-male Covington Catholic High School drew backlash online after a clip emerged Saturday of him smiling and standing close to the face of Nathan Phillips, an Omaha elder and Vietnam War veteran, as Phillips sang and beat a drum near the Lincoln Memorial in downtown D.C. on Friday. Other young people standing close by can be seen chanting as they encircle Phillips.

Lawmakers, Native American leaders, and the Diocese of Covington and Covington Catholic High School were quick to condemn the boy's behavior. The school announced it was investigating the situation and said the teen could be expelled.

But a longer video from a different angle shows that Philips was the one to approach the teenagers, taking a left on a landing along the stairway up the Lincoln Memorial and walking directly into the throng of students.

64 would mean, most likely born in 1954 or very early 1955... which means he turned 18 in 1972. We were still in 'Nam at the time (albeit not to the extent we were in the 60s) so it's not entirely out of the question.

Why the media have made such a big deal of this: 1) to pretend that the March of Life either didn't happen and didn't draw at least 10x the participants as the latest so-called women's march; and 2) to distract from the failure of the Buzzfeed story.

media made student story the big story from Right to Life march - to avoid impact of the march itself; meanwhile it provided more proof that where there's a Trump hat, hate follows. Bonus: media knew this story distracts from buzzfeed debacle. it worked on me!

I'm not challenging your knowledge @sneakypete so please don't take it that way. I was born in 1953 and most of the guys in my graduating class went to Nam. My husband (same age) was up for the draft when he was 18.

He is 64. The US military pulled all combat troops but some Special Operations guys out of VN in March of 1973. This gomer is now 64,which means he was born in 1955,and was only 20 when the last conventional troops were pulled out in 1975. Which ALSO means he was only 14 years old in 1967,which,IIRC,is the year the US government stopped sending 17 year olds to VN,and only 18 when the US stopped sending combat troops to VN . By that time the few troops they were sending were experienced NCO's and officers,not 18  year old idiots with no experience. In fact,they really cut back on the numbers there were sending before 1973 because the decision had already been made to pull the troops.

BTW,I know it had to have been 1967 when the army came up with the rule that no 17 year olds could serve in VN because one of them was pulled from VN and sent to the unit I was in on Okinawa because they thought he was 17. They found out he was only 14 or 15 while there,and that he had lied about his age and gotten his senile grandmother to sign a statement saying he was 17 so he could enlist when he was just 13. So....,there he was attached to a Special Forces unit on Okinawa,only 14 or 15 years old,and had already been wounded in combat and had a Purple Heart,a Bronze Star with Valor award,and a Combat Infantryman's badge. What happened is the army notified his hometown newspaper in Ky that young PFC Shaunessy had been wounded in combat,received a couple of medals,and was on Okinawa while recovering from wounds. People at home freaked when they saw that,and notified the army. ZOOM! He was gone in the blink of an eye.

PROBABLY what happened is Chief Bullshitter was determined to be a VN ERA vet by the VA,and he dropped the "Era" tag and just called himself a VN vet. VN ERA vets were people who were just in the US Military in VN. They could have been stationed in Alaska,or Oklahoma.

 It surprises people,but 90 percent of the US Military members that were sent to VN never heard a shot fired. Clerks,truck drivers,cooks,supply people,hospital orderlies,finance clerks,etc,etc,etc. There were many,MANY enlisted soldiers that went to VN who went to work every day in dress uniforms and never handled a weapon the whole time they were there.

The only way it was 1955 is if his birthday was in the last 3 weeks. The odds of that are only about 5%. Otherwise it was 1954.

THis must be one of those situations where being a Democrat takes precedence over being Native American. All the Native people I have known, and that includes quite a few, are ardent supporters of life, not abortion.

It would fly in the face of American Indian convention to not see each baby as precious, to not value that life.

It's too bad the Right to Life activists and protesters surrounding the drum-beater have no self-awareness.  At least not enough to see how a defiant mob of chanting and laughing MAGA hats around a single old man of color looks.

It is too bad that both did not recognize the common ground that life is precious.

Exactly right.   Revering nature and everything the "great spirit" (God, IOW) created is part of NA culture.  It flys in the face of that culture for them to support Democrats who push for abortions.   I liken it to how it applies to American Jews.   They are Jews (and/or Native American) dead last....

but first and foremost they are leftist Democrats.  That's how powerful the evil that has overtaken them is.

Not too young, though his crop would have been about the time Nixon shut down the draft. I'm 2 years younger, and guys just a little older than me were inducted or enlisted. SO he could have been there, but it doesn't mean he was. Is there any way to verify his military service, or if this is stolen valor?

Good explanation about the deployments there.
I recall the RIF going on, and didn't graduate until '74--by then guys weren't going there and I had a chance to go to college and went that way (back when it was still a respectable thing to do among working folks).
Yes about the last, one of the guys I still respect said he was just a telephone operator in Saigon, never fired a weapon in anger. He didn't bullshit people, he just went over, did his job, and came home, and made no bones about it, rather than shine people on about nights in the jungle on OP or on a firebase.

@Smokin Joe

Sure,it can be verified if you have his full legal name and SS number. Not really worth the trouble,though. I strongly suspect what you would find is that he was drafted in 1973,which was the year they stopped sending troops to VN,and is a Viet Nam ERA veteran. After all,if he was drafted in 1973 the decision to stop sending troops to VN had already been made,and by the time he graduated from basic and MOS training the VN war would be over for draftees. Even though US ground combat participation ended in 1973,the VN War wasn't considered to be over until the North took over South Viet Nam in 1975. Thus the whole "Era" thingie. Which is not the same as being a VN vet,but close enough for the left when trying to make a point out of a lie.

BTW,yes,there WERE some soldiers getting orders to go to VN and work jobs where there was a high likelyhood of them getting into combat after 1973,but these were people with high skill sets developed from years of training and doing,NOT a draftee with maybe 6 months of training including basic training.  For example,the Special Forces guys sent there took off their berets and in some cases didn't even wear US uniforms. There were also US pilots flying observation and occasional combat missions. They were all volunteers. Not a draftee in the bunch.

Classic example of what happens when you latch onto the story you want to hear...instead of the story that actually happened. Reporters and social media trolls were in such a hurry with their racist slant on this incident they completely steam rolled the truth. Thankfully there were people there who recorded the entire incident so the whole truth will now be known.

The account claimed to belong to a California schoolteacher. Its profile photo was not of a schoolteacher, but of a blogger based in Brazil, CNN Business found. Twitter suspended the account soon after CNN Business asked about it.

The account, with the username @2020fight, was set up in December 2016 and appeared to be the tweets of a woman named Talia living in California. "Teacher & Advocate. Fighting for 2020," its Twitter bio read. Since the beginning of this year, the account had tweeted on average 130 times a day and had more than 40,000 followers.

Late on Friday, the account posted a minute-long video showing the now-iconic confrontation between a Native American elder and the high school students, with the caption, "This MAGA loser gleefully bothering a Native American protester at the Indigenous Peoples March."  ...

Rob McDonagh, an assistant editor at Storyful, a service that vets content online, was monitoring Twitter activity on Saturday morning and said the @2020fight video was the main version of the incident being shared on social media.
In one indicator of the @2020fight's video's virality, multiple newsrooms, including some national American outlets, reached out to the user asking them directly about the video.
McDonagh said he found the account suspicious due to its "high follower count, highly polarized and yet inconsistent political messaging, the unusually high rate of tweets, and the use of someone else's image in the profile photo." ...

The photo NYDN claims is from 2015 really was from 2012, and that's all it was: everyone dressing all black for school spirit. Some kids took "all black" to include their bodies - just like Penn State's "white outs." Let's wait for them to go after these budding white supremacists next (just kidding, PSU is sufficiently "woke").

“I read it,” Phillips told The Daily News of Sandmann’s statement sent to CNN by a public relations firm. “I didn’t agree with it… They looked like a lynch mob.”

uh huh

Two cowboys come upon an Indian lying on his stomach with his ear to the ground. One of the cowboys stops and says to the other, "You see that Indian?" "Yeah," says the other cowboy.  "Look," says the first one, "he's listening to the ground. He can hear things for miles in any direction."  Just then the Indian looks up. "Covered wagon," he says, "about two miles away. Have two horses, one brown, one white. Man, woman, child, household effects in wagon." "Incredible!" says the cowboy to his friend. "This Indian knows how far away they are, how many horses, what colour they are, who is in the wagon, and what is in the wagon. Amazing!"  The Indian looks up and says, "Ran over me about a half hour ago."

It's clearly not Covington. There is a wider angle shot showing the team and they are wearing black uniforms. Covington's colors are blue and white.

This story is a complimentary piece of another story....the one about Pence's wife's involvement in a Christian Academy.  They have to play this one to the hilt, no matter how weak, in order to paint her as some kind of freak.   Everything is political with this bunch.

Last two weeks were the worst two weeks for fake news.

First it was “FBI launched investigation” into Donald Trump. Fake. It was one corrupt individual and he was fired: Andrew McCabe.

Next, it was “Cohen ready to squeal; Mueller’s got supporting emails, notes and documents.” Lie. In a rare move, Mueller makes a public denial.

And now it’s Covington. Disgusting and fake.

All fake.

Bingo.

This, and the coordinated attack on Christian education, go hand in hand. These kids were singled out as the case in point. Why? Because they're white and male.

well it turns out I am a Racist ignorant Uncle Tom. At least according to my @$$hole liberal Nephew and BIL. I very politely corrected his version of the narrative and suggested that he watch the entire video, rather than the edited versions being shown on the MSM.
Here  is one of his replies to me after I told him I would not be replying anymore.

 My favorite part of this whole thing is this.
Uncle Tom(fitting name): These young boys did nothing wrong!
MAGA Kids at first sight of Native American: BUILD THE WALL!!!
Uncle Tom: These boys did nothing wrong!
I absolutely LOVE the fact that your true self slipped and overlooked the insanely racist chant of build a wall. You slipped up Uncle Thom, you let your racism show through on this one when you said nothing was wrong with what they did. So 1.) you're either completely ignorant of the fact of what they did and aren't smart enough to comprehend racism OR 2.) you have excepted the fact that there is nothing wrong with the racism shown. Either way, you're on the wrong side of this argument. Was it originally clipped and the full story wasn't immediately covered? Yes that absolutely happened and was wrong for not putting out the whole story. BUT! To blindly say what these kids did was acceptable is beyond ignorant. Its moronic, hateful, and racist to say that these kids did nothing wrong. Screaming racist chants at a native elder was always kind of taught as a bad thing to me. Im glad you come out on social media and blatantly support obvious racism. It shows the world the true character of people when they refuse to acknowledge racism when its in the open.

The little turd doesn't even understand who Uncle Tom is in H.B. Stowes book.

My BIL's reply to me. BTW he is one of the most racist libs you will meet this side of the Reverends Jackson and Sharpton

 Aren't there supposed to be chaperones assigned to high school kids on a trip like this, and why did they not pull that smug faced punk wearing the white supremacy hat, out of the face of the Native American elder? Why were those kids chanting "Build that Wall" if they were there to march for there parents "right to life" policy? They might as well have been chanting "white power now". Why did those in charge of the all white segregated high school that they came from, allow that trip to continue during the shutdown, while all the national monuments and museums are closed? Not much to do other than get in trouble with everything closed.

I really wished Stupid burned.

Reminds me of the BLM crap that was spawned when Michael Brown robbed a store, tried to grab a cops gun and was subsequently killed when he charged the officer.  Even Eric Holder's DoJ could not find fault in the officer's conduct, yet the impression persists that shooting was a crime committed by an evil white guy.

Also, if it’s this bad WITH multiple videos exonerating these boys, imagine how bad the threats would be WITHOUT them.

Yeah, but... if they've been paying attention to the UK, they would know that not even a No Confidence vote worked out for the radical left last time....lol.  (Teresa May is still the PM.)

Honestly, their desperation is making them even more wacky than before (I know, I know... how can that even be possible?).

These intellectually lazy individuals on the left don't bother to pay attention, much less to read anything other than the damming headlines that their leftist icons in the media (Pravda, USA) tell them.  They don't CARE what anyone else has to say .... even if it's (or especially if it's) the uncomfortable and inconvenient truth.

well it turns out I am a Racist ignorant Uncle Tom. At least according to my @$$hole liberal Nephew and BIL. I very politely corrected his version of the narrative and suggested that he watch the entire video, rather than the edited versions being shown on the MSM.
Here  is one of his replies to me after I told him I would not be replying anymore.

 My favorite part of this whole thing is this.
Uncle Tom(fitting name): These young boys did nothing wrong!
MAGA Kids at first sight of Native American: BUILD THE WALL!!!
Uncle Tom: These boys did nothing wrong!
I absolutely LOVE the fact that your true self slipped and overlooked the insanely racist chant of build a wall. You slipped up Uncle Thom, you let your racism show through on this one when you said nothing was wrong with what they did. So 1.) you're either completely ignorant of the fact of what they did and aren't smart enough to comprehend racism OR 2.) you have excepted the fact that there is nothing wrong with the racism shown. Either way, you're on the wrong side of this argument. Was it originally clipped and the full story wasn't immediately covered? Yes that absolutely happened and was wrong for not putting out the whole story. BUT! To blindly say what these kids did was acceptable is beyond ignorant. Its moronic, hateful, and racist to say that these kids did nothing wrong. Screaming racist chants at a native elder was always kind of taught as a bad thing to me. Im glad you come out on social media and blatantly support obvious racism. It shows the world the true character of people when they refuse to acknowledge racism when its in the open.

The little turd doesn't even understand who Uncle Tom is in H.B. Stowes book.

My BIL's reply to me. BTW he is one of the most racist libs you will meet this side of the Reverends Jackson and Sharpton

 Aren't there supposed to be chaperones assigned to high school kids on a trip like this, and why did they not pull that smug faced punk wearing the white supremacy hat, out of the face of the Native American elder? Why were those kids chanting "Build that Wall" if they were there to march for there parents "right to life" policy? They might as well have been chanting "white power now". Why did those in charge of the all white segregated high school that they came from, allow that trip to continue during the shutdown, while all the national monuments and museums are closed? Not much to do other than get in trouble with everything closed.

I really wished Stupid burned.

Stupid does burn!  Not in the same way fire does but it definitely burns!

I spoke my peace replied once to his  8bs8 and told him I would not be replying. that was when he went on the rant to get me to comment. Frankly the little $H!T is not worth the effort. 10 years in the Navy taught him NOTHING. I knew I would not change his mind, but the truth must come out.

I hear ya.  I have a stepson in Houston that is stuckonstupid leftified.  Apparently he got "edicated" while in college via the USAF, despite being brought up by two solid conservative parents.

He now believes in "global warming" and is a bleeding heart lib.  Needless to say, since he knows my political bent only too well, we don't have much to say to each other these days (post Trump election).  Sad, that.

Who is Nathan Phillips?

January 22, 2019

Glenn Beck

CEO/Founder

If America has confirmed anything about itself since the Lincoln Memorial incident between the Covington Catholic high school boys, the Native American drum enthusiast, and the Black Hebrew Israelite hate posse, it is this – that outrage and narrative are virtues, while facts and context are just obstacles.

This whole story was the media version of a microwaveable meal. It came pre-packaged, ready-made. You didn't even have to add water. The victim hierarchy is so perfectly arranged, it almost seems choreographed. At the very top of the hierarchy is Nathan Phillips, the 64-year-old Native American leader. At the very bottom of the hierarchy are the white, male, privileged, bratty, Catholic school kids from Kentucky. The "journalists" manning the desks over the weekend could've written this story with their outraged eyes closed, and most of them apparently did. Our frantic news cycle won't wait for context. So we get headline gems like this from Vox: "White students in MAGA gear crashed the Indigenous Peoples March and harassed participants."

For the handful of people out there who do still care about old-fashioned things like facts and context, this segment is for you. Who is Nathan Phillips, the personal-space drummer in this drama? ...

https://www.glennbeck.com/glenn-beck/who-is-nathan-phillips (https://www.glennbeck.com/glenn-beck/who-is-nathan-phillips)


Beck does good research.

He put together a very informative timeline.  I'm trying to find the link.

Reminds me of the BLM crap that was spawned when Michael Brown robbed a store, tried to grab a cops gun and was subsequently killed when he charged the officer.  Even Eric Holder's DoJ could not find fault in the officer's conduct, yet the impression persists that shooting was a crime committed by an evil white guy.

Lies are truth nowadays.

The MSM News is where truth goes to die in today's bizzarro world.

And also what passes for lefties of all occupations these days.   They rely on emotions and propaganda (lies) to manipulate those that disagree with them.   Only the weak and ignorant fall for it.  But alas.... America is just chock-full of weak, ignorant voters.

I wouldn't block him or anything, but shunning works well for this situation.  As you said, you spoke your piece and that's all that is required.  Even Twelve Steppers understand some folks won't accept their taking ownership for their life's choices.
I unfollowed both of them sometime ago. I checked his page to see how he was doing and read my nephews rant. I waited a good 24 hours before I replied. I wanted to make sure I gave a well thought out measured response instead of the knee jerk one I knew I would get from him.

Washington Post Correction: Nathan Phillips ‘Was Never Deployed to Vietnam’

The Washington Post has walked back claims about the military record of Nathan Phillips, the Native American activist at the center of a national controversy captured on video at Friday’s Woman’s March in Washington, D.C.
In a January 20 report titled — “‘It was getting ugly’: Native American drummer speaks on his encounter with MAGA-hat-wearing teens” — the Post‘s Cleve R. Wootson Jr., Antonio Olivo, and Joe Heim erroneously stated Philips is a veteran of the Vietnam War despite having not been deployed.

On Tuesday, news of the Post’s correction began circulating on social media. “Earlier versions of this story incorrectly said that Native American activist Nathan Phillips fought in the Vietnam War. Phillips served in the U.S. Marines from 1972 to 1976 but was never deployed to Vietnam,” the correction reads. The update does not have a time or date stamp.

They are just trying to cover for a leftie activist. He used to tell the press he was a "Recon Ranger in the USMC in Viet Nam",and then someone checked and discovered there was no such thing and never had been.
