Katie Hill brazenly lies about her resignation. But rather than call her out on her lies, the corporate news media gives her a helping hand.
Up until now I haven’t written about Katie Hill, the horny freshman Congresswoman from California — mostly because creepy perverts give me the, well, creeps. But now that she has resigned in the face of ethics violations, I decided to choke back the creepy feeling and write about her.
Well, not Katie Hill precisely, but the media’s all-hands-on-deck defense of her.
See, the media is claiming that “revenge porn” is the reason horny Katie Hill was driven out of Congress.
They’re using the same playbook they did during the Clinton impeachment. Clinton faced impeachment for perjury and obstruction of justice. But the media pretended Clinton was being impeached for his cigar trick with Monica.
Amazingly, people today still believe Clinton’s impeachment was about having sex in the Oval office. Just do a search on the phrase “impeached for sex” on Twitter. You’d be amazed at all the idiots who actually, to this day, believe that’s why Clinton was impeached.
So, since the media can claim “mission accomplished” on that big, fat Clinton lie, are you at all surprised they’re trying it again by claiming Katie Hill was forced out of Congress because of revenge porn?
After all, the purpose of the corporate news media isn’t to inform the public. It’s to frame the narrative.
And Katie Hill is the beneficiary of the latest narrative-framing propaganda from our garbage media.
But it wasn’t the revenge porn that drove Hill out of Congress.
She resigned because she violated House ethics rules regarding sex with staffers.
The “Me Too Congress Act” was Congress’ way of responding to the current climate on sexual harassment – especially given the fact that it came to light in 2018 that Congress was paying settlement claims (with taxpayer dollars) to Congressional staffers over allegations of harassment.
As Nancy Pelosi put it in her floor remarks about the Me Too Congress Act:
“The Me Too Congress Act is our promise in a bipartisan way to hold every person accountable to the rule of absolutely zero tolerance. No matter someone’s contribution to our country – harassment and discrimination are always unacceptable.”
By engaging in a sexual relationship with a subordinate, Katie Hill violated that rule.
And, hey. Zero tolerance means zero tolerance.
Did Hill’s ethics violation come to light due to the release of these creepy, inappropriate photos?
Yes.
But her resignation had nothing to do with those photos.
And yet. It is those photos that the news media is focusing on.
Why? Well, it’s obvious, isn’t it?
Playing up the revenge porn aspect of this sordid tale successfully frames Hill as a Victim.
And trust me. Katie Hill is enjoying the hell out of all this narrative framing.
In addition to painting Hill as a victim of Revenge Porn, the media is also digging into the background of the RedState writer who broke the story.
Because targeting journalists is an assault on our free press … or something.
And they’re going to keep on this revenge porn narrative come hell or high water.
Because the truth is damning for Katie Hill. So the lie needs to be pushed and pushed until it is accepted as truth.
Last night, the Washington Post tweeted out an idiotic “Analysis” piece titled “Revenge porn drove Katie Hill out of Congress. Would that have happened to a man?”
Not very good analysis if the writer is unaware of the fact that it wasn’t revenge porn that “drove Katie Hill out of Congress.”
Nancy Pelosi did … because Hill screwed a subordinate.
Zero tolerance!
And the nerve, the absolute nerve of the Washington Post of all outlets to float this ridiculous claim.
In November 2017, Republican Congressman Joe Barton of Texas was the victim of revenge porn. A former girlfriend threatened him with nude photos Barton had texted her.
When he told her he’d call the police if she released them, she scampered to the news media claiming Barton was one doing the threatening.
And can you guess who gave this ex-girlfriend a helping hand?
Why, the Washington Post.
Barton did an idiotic thing. As I pointed out at the time, if you do not want to be a victim of revenge porn, then don’t send out pornographic pictures of yourself.
But the Washington Post didn’t howl with indignation at how Barton was being blackmailed with revenge porn. Nope. Instead, they portrayed the ex-girlfriend as the victim.
What’s more, Mike DeBonis, one of the writers of this article, solicited other women to come forward.
Inappropriately propositioned? Barton and the vengeful woman were in a consensual relationship when he texted her that stupid picture.
But of course, the Washington Post has to turn the victim into some kind of monster while casting the monster into the role of a victim.
To answer the Washington Post’s question, yes, a man in Congress can have his life destroyed by revenge porn. But unlike Katie Hill, the media aided and abetted his destruction.
And we all know why. Barton, unlike Katie Hill, is a Republican.
Though Barton didn’t resign, he did decide not seek reelection in 2018.
And had Katie Hill simply been a victim of revenge porn, she too would have no reason to resign from Congress.
It’s a shame that we do not have a Free and Independent Press in this country.
The lengths these propagandists will go to provide cover-fire for Democrats really is mind-boggling. And every single time I think it can’t possibly get more overt, these assholes prove me wrong.
