Lidia Curanaj didn’t sneak a line onto cable TV — she said plainly what millions of Americans already feel: Democrats gaslight the public every single day. As a full-time host at Newsmax who’s built a reputation calling out the left’s double standards, Curanaj put a mirror up to the establishment media and the party that shields it.
The comment wasn’t idle provocation; it came during hard-hitting segments where Curanaj pushed back on the predictable left-wing narrative after a violent incident was first framed as “right-wing extremism” by parts of the press. When reporting later showed connections that didn’t fit the original story, Curanaj rightly demanded accountability and accused Democrats of spinning events to suit their political cover story.
This isn’t random heat-seeking rhetoric — Curanaj has repeatedly used her platform to expose how mainstream outlets and Democratic operatives rewrite facts to protect their tribe while blaming conservatives. She pressed that point even while interviewing Donald Trump Jr. about the assassination attempt on his father, challenging the media’s rush to assign blame and spotlighting the selective outrage that follows such events.
Americans are tired of institutions being weaponized. On Curanaj’s watch she has interrogated guests about one-party rule and elite capture — conversations that lay bare how Democratic power in places like New York distorts justice and silences dissenting citizens. Those are not fringe beliefs; they are observations of how the system operates when oversight disappears and politics becomes protection for insiders.
The gaslighting extends across policy: open-border chaos excused as compassion, economic failure dressed up as recovery, and rising crime claimed to be merely “a conversation.” Curanaj and other honest journalists have kept raising the border and public-safety alarms while the left tries to reframe the narrative — the American people see through it, and they’re rightly furious.
Patriots must stop treating media narratives like gospel. We need outlets that will ask the tough questions, demand raw facts, and refuse to let the left rewrite reality every morning. That is exactly why conservatives should take heart in reporters and hosts who refuse to bow to the spin machine and who call out gaslighting when they see it.
Hardworking Americans deserve a country where truth matters more than power and where bad policies are owned by those who promote them. Stand with voices that speak plainly, hold the powerful to account, and push back against the endless stream of Democratic smoke and mirrors — because if we don’t fight for the truth, no one else will.
