B-Man Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 CNN reporter leaves out 7 important words from CIA Director Mike Pompeo quote CNN’s Jim Sciutto posted a screenshot of a letter sent to Sen. Chuck Schumer by CIA Director Mike Pompeo, summarized by this text in his tweet. Pay special attention to the ellipses: Just in: @CIA Director Pompeo responds on @SenSchumer on unannounced meetings with Russian intel chiefs: “We periodically meet with our Russian intelligence counterparts…to keep Americans safe” And here’s the full letter. Now, read what he left out: Click on to enlarge “For the same reasons our predecessors did” .........................seems like a pretty important part of the letter, no ? In other words, the Trump administration is doing the exact same thing as was done during the Obama administration and it’s Sen. Schumer and CNN who should be called out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deranged Rhino Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Well, they're not doing the EXACT same things as Obama. So far they haven't abused the surveillance system to spy on political opposition, they haven't colluded with Russian FSB agents to compile a political hit job in order to bury an opponent and save their own ass, they also haven't sold the country out to Hezbollah.

B-Man Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Trump leverages the anti-Trump press. That's my theory, as I read — at Politico — "Trump escalates his war with U.S. law enforcement after memo release/The president hinted openly that he might yet fire senior officials over claims of bias against him."What did Trump say that "hinted openly that he might yet fire senior officials"? A reporter asked him if he's "likely to fire Rosenstein" and if he still had "confidence in" someone whose name I couldn't catch (maybe Rosenstein). And Trump just said "You figure that one out."So the press takes that no-comment comment and runs with it, basically reporting on The Future. What might Trump do? I was laughing about this last night as I tried to watch CNN. The Nunes memo had just come out, and the night before the memo came out, the talk had been about what might be in the memo, i.e., News of The Future. Once the memo was out, it was old news, because we'd already talked about what was in it, back when it was News of the Future. So the subject had to be who Trump will/will not fire in the coming Saturday Night Massacre. Trump doesn't need to move a muscle. The media throw his weight around for him.

B-Man Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 ‘Lies, lies, and MORE lies’: CNN gets BUSTED running interference for Hillary Clinton Considering how many times they’ve been busted for peddling fake news, you’d think CNN would try a little harder to be a little more careful than this. But, well, here we are. A piece yesterday on the Steele Dossier makes note of Cody Shearer, a Clinton associate who was reportedly in contact with Steele. Only here’s how CNN described him (emphasis ours): They describe Cody Shearer, author of Dossier # 2, as an "independent journalist." Couldn't be further from the truth. Shearer hasn't been a journo for DECADES. Most recently employed as a private intel operative for Hillary Clinton. Oh well. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
