Print this article My absolute favorite moment of the Trump years is when he said during a speech in 2018, "What you’re seeing and what you’re reading is not what’s happening." Very dumb liberals such as Jeff Greenfield compared it to something from George Orwell's 1984 when it was actually the truest and most insightful thing Donald Trump had said. What the media say is happening is routinely and literally not what's really happening. CBS on Monday reported that 29-year-old Jordan Burnette had been arrested in New York and charged with multiple crimes, including the vandalism of several synagogues. Burnette is black. That's not really surprising because this is the kind of thing that's been happening in New York for decades. It's how Al Sharpton launched his storied career as a race-baiting antisemite. That's right — before he made his money shaking down random white people, Sharpton spent his time harassing Jews and inciting riots against their businesses.
