So, President Trump is out there, reportedly trying to catch pool vandals at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool with some shiny new A.I. surveillance tech. And what has corporate media like CNN been doing? Just another day of reinforcing their pearls-clutching, anti-tech narrative, while failing to acknowledge the potential benefits of innovation in crime prevention.
Charlie Cotton’s announcement of these surveillance systems should be a moment of civic pride, yet here comes the hapless media framing it as a “Big Brother” invasion, instead of celebrating the idea that we have tools to keep our national treasures safe. Fox News might be king of sensationalism, but even they can’t touch the sanctimonious tone of CNN’s approach. They’re painting Trump as a desperate wannabe vigilante while conveniently ignoring that America is in a crime spike. Why? Because it doesn’t fit their narrative of vilifying any action taken to address real issues.
They love to tout their “human rights” perspective, yet when it comes to vandalism—behavior that undermines public property and the very essence of American culture—suddenly they’re all about “privacy.” Classic double standards! It’s almost as if they care more about the feelings of vandals than the historical significance of the Lincoln Memorial.
In conclusion, the mainstream media is drowning in hypocrisy. We should applaud innovation and vigilance in protecting our heritage, not demonize it! It’s time to call out this blatant spin and take ownership of real conversations: crime is up, and we need solutions, not ideology.
