• MEDIA: The New Yorker Targets Border Hawk With Low Energy Hit Piece

    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Wed Jan 1 13:14:32 2025
    Border Hawk's Dan Lyman on whether Susie Wiles recommends that
    Donald Trump submit content to the BSky.SOCIAL website: <URL:https://borderhawk.news/new-yorker-targets-border-hawk-with-low-energy-hit-piece/>
    | While the message conveyed by author Rachel Monroe (who apparently
    | left X in favor of Bluesky shortly before publication) lacked some
    | of the deeply insidious vitriol hurled at Border Hawk by the
    | Southern Poverty Law Center earlier this year, the undertones
    | rhymed.
    |
    | "Border Hawk presents itself as a grassroots organization offering
    | an honest view of the southern border. But the site is intimately
    | entwined with a long-standing anti-immigrant movement that, until
    | recently, was widely rejected," Monroe wrote.
    |
    | "Border Hawk is a nonprofit, and cannot endorse political parties or
    | candidates, but the site has consistently depicted the border as out
    | of control, and migrants as criminals and invaders."
    |
    | Monroe went on to besmirch the Lyman family, members of which
    | founded and run the Border Hawk operation, as de facto anti-
    | immigrant zealots whose defense of American laws and values are
    | beyond the pale.

    Has Trump ordered Wiles to share with VP JD Vance MAGA marketing
    research and does it suggest that taking a leftward position on the
    National Question is a winner or a loser for the 2028 campaign for WhiteHouse.GOV?
