New York Magazine Hit Piece on Young GOP Influencers Cuts Black Conservatives From Cover Photo
“I’m so sick of the liberal media rewriting reality to fit their narrative.”

If there’s one thing that’s unquestionably true about the media in 2025, it is that it learned absolutely nothing from the 2024 presidential election.
We saw this, for instance, in a recent article from the New York Times, which tried to erase former President Joe Biden’s obscene wokeification of the United States military while bashing President Trump for having the nerve to try and put an end to it.
There was also MSNBC anchor Lawrence O’Donnell, who attempted to smear veterans for allegedly being a bigger threat than illegal immigrants.
And let us also not forget the Associated Press story that conveniently tried to bury the fact that Laken Riley’s murderer was an illegal immigrant.
The latest example comes courtesy of a hit piece on young, Trump-supporting conservatives/influencers published by New York Magazine and which featured a cover image that gave the impression that not a single person of color was at an inauguration eve “Power 30 Awards” party that was held in Washington, D.C.:
For our latest cover story, @BrockColyar reported on the young, gleeful, confident, and casually cruel Trumpers who, after conquering Washington, have their sights set on the rest of America: https://t.co/S8QuhS3VPp pic.twitter.com/zKptkMhn7T

The article itself made sure to throw in the suggestion that “almost everyone” who was part of the young conservative influencer movement “was white” and quoted a woman from another gathering who allegedly said to the reporter covering the various inauguration-related events, “Have you noticed the entire room is white?”
From an aesthetic standpoint, this new class of conservatives is willing to top off a perfectly stylish outfit with a MAGA hat, which now comes in lots of colors: red, yes, but also yellow, green, orange, or black, the “dark MAGA” kind that Elon Musk wears. Almost everyone is white. The men look like Pete Hegseth, in bow ties and black suits, with clean-shaven faces. The women are almost all out of their league.
[…]
“Have you noticed the entire room is white?” an older woman in an updo and a silver sequined gown asked me, though it wasn’t entirely clear whether she thought that was a good thing or a bad thing. The Laken Riley Act was a popular topic of conversation.
[…]
On my last night, I got to smoking with a model type in a fur coat with a vaguely European accent. I’d later discover she’s married to an alt-right activist with ties to white nationalists.
Conservatives, including C.J. Pearson, a co-chair of the GOP Youth Advisory Council and who co-hosted the “Power 30” gathering from which the cover photo was taken, took notice of the differences between the cover photo and the photo used inside the magazine:
This is insane.
I hosted this event and @NYMag intentionally left me out of their story because it would have undermined their narrative that MAGA is some racist cult. They also didn’t include the fact that @WakaFlocka and @Gervontaa were also there.

.@NYMag accused me of hosting a white-only inauguration rager.
I guess none of these black people got the memo? @XAVIAERD @VernonForGA @WakaFlocka pic.twitter.com/kSRwKbHuAv

This is insane! @NYMag should issue a full page apology to @thecjpearson (since he literally hosted the event).

Wow. New York Magazine literally cropped out everyone black in the photo so that they could fit the narrative that it was an all white party. You don’t hate the media enough. https://t.co/W6idOP96aV

New York Magazine cropped the black people out of a photo of conservatives, for the New York Magazine cover, in order to try to make the conservatives seem racist.

This party was deemed all-White and racist…
1. The host was a black conservative
2. I am mentioned in the article as an honoree from the event, yet he failed to mention that I too am BLACK.I’ll be debriefing this situation live at 6PM EST today on https://t.co/127H9uCIEv https://t.co/LJESOcxmJg pic.twitter.com/5Dq9CWOhZN

Such a White Supremacist party you threw, CJ!
Only whites everywhere!@NYMag did some hardcore journalism that night!@washingtonpost got a Pulitzer for lying about Russia collusion – so I see no reason that this writer @BrockColyar shouldn’t win one! https://t.co/VHtTv6FRNL pic.twitter.com/V2qbOl1wP4

On a much more humorous note, Vice President J.D. Vance also had thoughts:

No one should be surprised by any of this – after all, according to the woke left if you are a minority and you support conservative public figures and causes then you are a sellout. But it’s still maddening all the same, and further proof not just that the press hasn’t learned anything since November but also that all their talk about supposed support for “diversity” in viewpoints comes with an asterisk attached to it.

“Cruel Kids”
Projecting in IMAX.
There’s no cruelty on the left, is the brazen implication of this idiotic propaganda piece.
Enabling and facilitating the entry of millions of illegal aliens, allowing them to visit their innumerable predations upon American citizens, unmolested by law enforcement and criminal prosecution and/or deportation — that’s not cruel.
Enabling misogynistic and narcissistic male trannies to invade girls’ and women’s sports and private spaces — that’s not cruel.
Manipulating, abusing and mutilating impressionable and emotionally vulnerable teens to undergo life-altering chemical treatments and surgeries — that’s not cruel.
Impoverishing families through crushing, 30%-plus Biden-Harrisflation on fuel, groceries and household goods — that’s not cruel.
Gleefully supporting, lionizing, whitewashing and rationalizing the atrocities and barbarism of goose-stepping, genocidal, Jew-hating Muslim terrorists/Islamofascists — that’s not cruel.
Murdering millions of unborn babies under the anodyne euphemism of “women’s healthcare” — that’s not cruel.
To name only a few examples.
I bet Lawrence O’Donnell and Chris Matthews take turns stripping naked, applying blackface, and whipping each other.
Death to the MSM!
Death by Community Notes!
Violence is never the answer because the right question is never asked.
Yep! The.acquisition of X by Musk and unleashing free speech and the community notes to balance out the BS some try to pull is far more transformative and far more important than many acknowledge. It is a near instantaneous way to correct bad info, get the truth out and pushback against the legacy media in real time among hundred of millions. Then various alt media sites,.such as.LI, pick it up and give it even wider circulation. The days of legacy media and half a.dozen network/cable news outlets and half a dozen newspapers controlling the narrative is over; at least for those with an open mind.
Reminds me of the little native American boy who wanted to support his team by painting his face half red and half black. But the media showed it from an angle to make it look like it was all black and accused him of black face.
There’s no minor child they won’t throw to their rabid, brainwashed audience for a few rating points.
The five white kids in the front of the photo should sue that rag into oblivion.
The Cruel Kids. They be wildin’ out in those street takeovers where they do burnouts followed by aggressive driving.
How horrible.
Defamation lawsuit landing in 3….2…..
