DC Tom Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 CNN Fires 3 Following Yet Another Fake Story The story, which reported that Congress was investigating a "Russian investment fund with ties to Trump officials," cited a single anonymous source.

ExiledInIllinois Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 No worries. DNC would've rigged that primary, too. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ "Howd they do it? Basically, by doxxing the Democrats and unleashing fake news. Russia was behind the stories that dominated our headlines, both real and fabricated, for several weeks leading up to the election. In doing so, it bet that casting further doubt on Clintons honesty and character while also polluting the information environment with false stories would affect the decisions of enough voters to increase Trumps chances. It wagered that in a close election, perhaps it could be the difference." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) "To report not on facts, but instead on narratives that yield high ratings, is exactly the definition of fake news O'KEEFE STRIKES AGAIN: CNN Producer Says Russia Narrative 'Bullsh*t'... "It's a business, people are like the media has an ethical phssssss... All the nice cutesy little ethics that used to get talked about in journalism school you're just like, that's adorable. That's adorable. This is a business." "Trump is good for business right now," "Just to give you some context, President Trump pulled out of the climate accords and for a day and a half we covered the climate accords. And the CEO of CNN (Jeff Zucker) said in our internal meeting, he said good job everybody covering the climate accords, but we're done with that, let's get back to Russia."

Tiberius Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 What was Jared Kushner doing meeting with the Kremlin's "bank" manager? http://www.businessinsider.com/what-is-veb-putin-bank-that-jared-kushner-met-2017-6 This "bank" is nothing more than a Kremlin influence peddling institution and Trump is appearently tied up in it to his eyeballs No wonder Kushner is hiring some serious legal help.

Considering she was a former first lady who had been in the public eye for 16 years+ and even had been a US senator for longer than Barry had been? It's because the DNC realized that the more Hilly campaigned, the more people disliked her. It had nothing to do with the Russians then, just as it doesn't now. So they cut a deal with her to let Barry have the presidency and she could make her run in 2016 (and that's the information that was exposed, although it didn't make a difference in the outcome). And guess what? The more people saw of her, the more they disliked her. And she lost. Get over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

President Obama was a likeable man who could bring back a good chunk of the Nixon/Reagan/Bush Democrats. Dems need a Southerner or acceptable type like Obama to win.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 This isn't even comparable to Hilly's bro getting a gold mine permit from Haiti after the State Department gave the country billions. Must be because Barry's now getting hammered over it. Barry would have gotten hammered over it IF he spoke up last November as "trying to sway the election" This is a Strawman Frump argument.

Usually the sitting POTUS's party gets taken down a peg or six during offseason elections for Congress. Edited June 27, 2017 by row_33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes no sense is pretending that had Obama had made this an issue last November you (yes you) would have bitched up a storm and cried foul. # resist # RoguePOTUSStaff https://twitter.com/RoguePOTUSStaff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
