Dead giveaway is an idiom that means something that shows the truth about a narrative clearly or something that reveals a fact or an intention completely and usually unintentionally.

Here is how it works. The ultra left-wing media creates a narrative and has every media outlet say the exact same thing in the exact same way using the usual buzz words. Then they double down on their narrative by trotting out the liberal hate machine that calls anyone who does not believe their story a conspiracy theorist, a white supremacist, a bigot or a homophobe. You know the drill – they keep repeating the same story, only louder day after day. They have perfected the Nazi playbook of telling a lie long enough and often enough so that eventually people start to believe it. It has now become cliché that yesterday's conspiracy theories are today's facts. A few examples:

Trump Russia collusion, Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian disinformation, the police are racist, wear a mask, close the schools, Jussie Smollett was attacked by Trump supporters, Jan. 6 was an armed insurrection, Nick Sandmann and Kyle Rittenhouse were the bad guys and that a bat, a pangolin, a wet market and a human all decided to swap spit “miraculously” at the exact time and precise location across the street from the facility conducting gain of function research on the Covid virus infamous for its poor management of lab leaks – just for starters. All these things have been totally disproven despite the best efforts of the media to ram these falsehoods down your throat.

The far left media always wants you to look at the shiny object so you do not take the time to seek the truth. So the next time the media goes crazy with some nonstop news story that they want you to believe just stop and ask yourself, “why.” One media narrative that they have been pushing for decades has morphed from global cooling to global warming to climate change.  Many alert citizens are onto this fraud.  When cornered, the far left media now admits that the reason they have lied about it is because they wanted to create a sense of urgency that was not possible with regular news reporting. They had many useful idiots to play along with their game – big tech, the NEA, Hollywood elites and the Democrat Party.

Remember to ask yourself “why.” If, as they say, the oceans are rising, why would Barack Obama build a mansion along the coast of the Atlantic Ocean? Why isn't Florida underwater? Why does the guy with the biggest carbon footprint on the planet (John Kerry) say his massive carbon footprint is ok because he is going to plant a little tree in his backyard as his carbon offset?  Stop listening to the far left, just watch what they do – it's a dead giveaway!
