OK I'll be the one to say it: No one is holding Nancy Guthrie for ransom.
If they were, her daughter’s $40 million net worth would have produced a seven-figure demand by now, and the woman would be home safe, case closed.
Instead, we’re fed a slow drip of non-facts, non-evidence, and carefully curated ambiguity designed to keep the spotlight locked in place.
I was born at night, but it wasn’t last night.
The sad, infuriating truth is that what we call “the news” has become a reality-control device.
Nancy Guthrie vanishes, and suddenly—poof:
No more ICE protests clogging the airwaves.
No discussion of the SAVE Act.
No scrutiny of border numbers or cartel pipelines.
No follow-up on the thousands of unaccompanied minors still missing from HHS custody.
One carefully amplified disappearance, and the entire national conversation pivots on command.
The MEDIA MACHINE selects which crisis gets oxygen - and which ones suffocate in silence.
And we’re left watching the approved story while the real ones bleed out off-screen.
Just thought you should know.
