For quite some time we’ve not been living in the era of truth but in the land of “political truth.” What’s the difference? The truth is true no matter what your political affiliation. “Political truth” is about winning. It’s about power. It’s about building talking points to bash the political opponent.
Long ago, the media was a respected purveyor of truth. I know, it’s hard to remember back that far. But now, the media acts as a cheerleader for their political side. We know this. So how do we, the electorate, ever get to the actual truth if all we’re constantly being bombarded by “political truth?”
When it came to understanding the Affordable Care Act, the media was playing the role of cheerleader and the Obama administration was simply lying about the facts. After losing our family plan and learning we’ve been lied to, I decided to look at the architects of the ACA to see what they were saying outside of the political arena. That’s how I discovered what I refer to as the Jonathan Gruber “confession” videos.
So finding the truth is not as difficult as you might think. Here’s the thought process on how to find the truth for yourself:
- Those on the political right are skeptical of the political left and vice versa.
- Those on the political right or left will trust sources from their own political ideology.
- Outside of the political arena, those on the right and left will often confess the truth.
- Once they become politicized, everything changes.
- Look for what those on the other side of the political aisle are saying before they become politicized. That can most likely be trusted by everyone.
Which brings us to the coronavirus. President Trump and his team have been constantly lambasted by the political opposition, attacking him for his “slow response.” Today Nancy Pelosi provided the perfect example:
“The President, his denial at the beginning, was deadly. His delaying of getting equipment to where it — his continued delay in getting equipment to where it’s needed is deadly … as the president fiddles, people are dying.” She finishes with the Nixonian “…what did the President know and when did he know it.”

She’s political and everything she says has a political purpose. But what’s the actual truth? For that, given the checklist above, the place to start would be to research what the experts on the left were saying. Which experts? On March 11, Joe Biden established his own Coronavirus Committee. Let’s start there. Who are his experts?
According to CNBC, the six-member committee includes a number of former Obama administration officials, including former Office of Management and Budget health policy advisor Dr. Zeke Emanuel, former Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy and former homeland security advisor Lisa Monaco.
Dr. Rebecca Katz, co-director of Georgetown University’s Center for Global Health Science and Security, former FDA commissioner Dr. David Kessler, and Dr. Irwin Redlener, a professor and disaster preparedness expert at Columbia University’s school of public health, are also on the committee.
What did Joe Biden’s experts say about the virus BEFORE March 11? That would be the actual truth, truth that should be acceptable to both sides of the political scale.
Here are the highlights. You can link to this tweet for video and see for yourself:
A Coronavirus timeline from the experts on team Biden

There’s still so much we don’t know about this virus pic.twitter.com/nSWhuEGwNR— Rich Weinstein (@phillyrich1) March 23, 2020
February 14, 2020: Dr. Rebecca Katz
- “There’s still so much we do not know about this virus…”
- “It could spread or just become embedded in our communities, we just don’t know.”
February 19, 2020: Dr. Lisa Monaco
- “I do think that kind of perspective is very important. Governor Cuomo recently said the common flu remains a far greater threat to New Yorkers so it’s important to keep that in perspective.”
March 6, 2020: Dr. Lisa Monaco
- “It cannot be overstated how much this is about State and Local response. State and Local public health officials… they are the first responders… The job of the Federal Government is to support their response.”
March 6, 2020: Dr. Zeke Emanuel
- “More importantly the raw materials that go into drug production, something like 90% originate in China. We clearly… whoever thought that was a good idea for driving prices down… it’s a really bad idea to have sole source as it were… we need to diversify the sources and also diversify the production…”
March 12, 2020: Dr. Rebecca Katz (the day after joining Team Biden.)
- “There are estimates all over the place for exactly what’s going to happen. Its hard to know exactly what the right answer is…”
Again, those are the scientific experts on Team Biden. Many of those worked for the Obama Administration. What they were saying is the actual truth, in real time and sounds very similar to what Trump Administration was saying then but is getting politically criticized for now.
If you don’t trust the media, you don’t have to. It’s just not that hard to find the truth. The left will tell you the truth. You just have to know where and when to look and you’ll find it for yourself.
Oh, last thing. After you find all the experts on the left truthfully making the exact same points as the Trump Administration, feel free to bridge the great political divide by sharing it with as many on the opposite political side as possible.
American Conservative Movement
Join fellow patriots as we form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism. The coronavirus crisis has prompted many, even some conservatives, to promote authoritarianism. It’s understandable to some extent now, but it must not be allowed to embed itself in American life. We currently have 8000+ patriots with us in a very short time. If you are interested, please join us to receive updates.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
Covid variant BA.5 is spreading. It appears milder but much more contagious and evades natural immunity. Best to boost your immune system with new Z-Dtox and Z-Stack nutraceuticals from our dear friend, the late Dr. Vladimir Zelenko.
