Let me ask you something: when certain tragedies play on TV for months while others disappear overnight, don’t you wonder who’s deciding which victims matter? The mainstream media says they’re watchdogs for truth. But their picking and choosing shows us something else. And here’s what really gets me – the Trump administration just exposed one case that proves how deep this goes.
You know what’s happening in Charlotte, North Carolina? A story that should have been everywhere just… wasn’t. The media played certain incidents on repeat for years. But they buried footage of 23-year-old Iryna Zarutska’s last moments. Why? This Ukrainian refugee fled the war looking for the American dream. Instead, she was brutally stabbed to death on Charlotte’s bus by Decarlos Brown Jr. This guy? A repeat criminal with arrests going back to 2011. The attack was caught on camera – Brown pulled out a pocket knife and stabbed her three times. She was just sitting there after her shift at a pizza place.
Media’s Selective Outrage
Here’s where it gets really twisted. Charlotte’s Democrat Mayor Vi Lyles thanked “media partners” for hiding the video. She said it was “out of respect for Iryna’s family.” Really? Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon called BS on that one. She asked Benny Johnson the question we’re all thinking: why did they play George Floyd’s death nonstop for years but won’t show this even once?
From ‘The Daily Wire’:
“One thing that drew my attention regarding the mayor’s comments regarding this situation is her reference to thanking her media partners for suppressing this video. That leads to a question — we’ve seen other instances of this, of mainstream media coordination. Whether this is an instance, or this nationally is an instance in which mainstream media partners of these left-wing cities are coordinating to suppress significant crime like this from being reported where there may be a racial angle to it. That might be an antitrust issue, it might be other issues as well. Why are we not seeing this disturbing incident and footage on all the news shows at night when we saw the same with respect to George Floyd? That’s a real serious question, and all the people in this department may want to look at that.”
Think about that. Dhillon’s not just looking at media bias. She’s checking if Brown’s attack was racially motivated. She wants to see who his other victims were. The feds are finally doing what local leaders won’t.
Justice System Failures
Here’s what burns me up most – this murder didn’t have to happen. Brown had been arrested over and over since 2011. Robbery with a dangerous weapon. Larceny. Making threats. He already did five years for armed robbery. But liberal judges kept letting him go. Every judge who signed those papers? They helped kill that girl.
President Trump saw the footage himself. He spoke about it at the Museum of the Bible. “A lunatic just got up and started. It’s right on the tape, not really watchable, because it’s so horrible,” Trump said. Finally, someone said it. His promise was simple: “When you have horrible killings, you have to take horrible actions.” Meanwhile, Mayor Lyles wants us to show “compassion” for the killer. Not the victim. The killer. Can you believe that?
The Trump administration looking into this hate crime and media cover-up changes everything. For too long, progressive prosecutors and their media friends pushed their stories. They ignored victims who didn’t fit their script. Zarutska came here running from war. She wanted safety. Instead, she got murdered by someone who should’ve been locked up. Her story matters. Her killer needs the worst punishment possible. And the system that failed her? It needs to be torn down and rebuilt. Trump promised he’ll “get to the end” of this crime wave. Because he’s right – without law and order, we don’t have a country.
Key Takeaways
• Trump’s DOJ is investigating media coordination to suppress footage of Ukrainian refugee’s murder
• Charlotte’s Democrat mayor thanked media for hiding video while showing compassion for the killer
• Repeat offender with extensive criminal history was repeatedly released by liberal judges
• The same media that played George Floyd footage endlessly won’t show this victim once
