CNN losing credibility as each day passes... Its pure propaganda at this point

[row_33]

I hate to say it but at some point freedom of the press has gone too far. When the media starts refusing to cover a major speech by the President, because they believe they have something more important to say, or because they don’t want the American people to hear from their President, then it’s no longer a media outlet. It’s is a propaganda machine.

‘Sh*t like this is why Hallmark Channel is beating you’: CNN’s garbage take on the 2020 census not fit to line a birdcage

 

 

 

[Tiberius]

Jake Tapper at CNN showed the right way to confront administration members on Sunday, when he went right after Vice President Pence’s misrepresentations about the dismal condition of children still held. After playing a clip of administration lawyers arguing in the 9th Circuit that there was no responsibility to provide basic necessities to children such as toothbrushes, Pence tried to claim that he didn’t know what the lawyers were saying. Tapper kept after him:

”But this is going on right now,” Tapper said, adding “This is the wealthiest nation in the world. We have money to give toothpaste and soap and blankets to these kids in this facility in El Paso County. Right now, we do.”

“Well, of course — of course we do,” Pence said.

“So why aren’t we?” Taper asked.

Pence again dodged the question with a snicker, replying “My point is — my point is, it’s all a part of the appropriations process.”

Tapper then had to cut Pence off from the lengthy digression that followed in order to force the question again.

“But I’m talking about the kids — I’m talking about the kids our custody right now,” Taper said. “Just listen to this. This is ‘The New Yorker’ citing a team of lawyers who visited a border facility.”

Pence tried to interrupt him again, but Tapper insisted “I just want to quote this.”

“The conditions the lawyers were found were shocking,” Tapper read. “Flu and lice outbreaks were going untreated. Children were filthy, sleeping on cold floors, taking care of each other because of the lack of attention from guards.”

“I know you. You’re a father. You’re a man of faith. You can’t approve of that,” Tapper said.

“Well, I — I — no — no American — no American should approve of this mass influx of people coming across our border,” Pence stammered. It is overwhelming our system at the southern border.

“But how about how we’re treating these children?” Tapper asked, again, and Pence deflected, again.

“I was at the detention center in Nogales just a few short months ago. It is a heartbreaking scene,” Pence said, but then added These are people who are being exploited by human traffickers, who charge them $5,000 a person to entice them to take their vulnerable children…”

“But now these kids are in our custody,” Tapper said.

Pence continued to blame Democrats in Congress, but Tapper again reiterated “But I would say that I’m talking about the kids on our southern border right now.”

He told Pence “you have the power right now to go back to the White House and say, we need to make sure that these kids — first of all, that there are people taking care of them, so it is not 12-year-olds taking care of 3-year-olds, and, second of all, that they have soap, that they have toothbrushes, that they have combs, that we’re taking care so they don’t all get the flu.”

Pence once again tried to blame Democrats, to which Tapper replied “I think Democrats would argue that they want to do a deal with President Trump, but he hasn’t showed any inclination.”

Your president: 

 

 

On Tuesday night, House Democrats announced that Robert Mueller will publicly testify next month about his investigation into Russian election interference and possible obstruction by Donald Trump, and the president is not taking the news well. We know this because on Wednesday morning, he called into Fox Business for a chat that was ostensibly meant to be about the economy and lost his goddamn mind—even more than usual. Speaking to host Maria Bartiromo, Trump kicked things off by insisting there is no reason whatsoever for Mueller to speak to anyone about his report. “It never ends,” the president said, claiming “we had no obstruction” when, of course, that’s not exactly the case.
With that little prelude out of the way, the subject then turned to the administration‘s wildly unpopular, self-defeating trade war. Bartiromo noted that the markets having been trading higher due to optimism that a meeting between Trump and Chinese president Xi Jinping at the G20 might lead to a deal. “What would be a victory to you, what do you want the Chinese to do in terms of a trade deal?” To which Trump responded with…this collection of words:
“We had a deal with [China], and it was very close, we were just finishing it, and you know my whole life is deals. I know when we have them and when we don’t—like with Mexico, we made a deal with Mexico…they know what we have, and if we don’t have intellectual property, theft protections, the opening of China…if we don’t have the opening of China, if we don’t have the things we negotiated, maybe even more than that…and right now, look, we’re getting 25% on $250 billion worth of goods, nobody ever heard of such a thing, it’s massive amount of money. Don’t play, don’t let anyone tell you that China’s not paying for it, China’s paying for it…and we’re not paying for any of it.” (Fact check: false.)
He continued: “Since tariffs have been on, the market has been going through the roof if you know what I’m talking about…Now you have another $325 billion I haven’t taxed yet. IT’S. RIPE. FOR. TAXING. For putting tariffs on…. It‘s been an incredible thing. Am I happy now? Absolutely…. When you say, ‘Are we going to make a deal?’ It’s possible we’re going to make a deal, but I’m also very happy where we are now, we’re taking in a fortune…. There’s no way you can beat the tariffs, there‘s no way you can make that money…[the tariffs] help us in ways that nobody even wants to talk about, that I don’t want to talk about them.”
And apparently, because the trade war with Beijing is working out so well, Europe may be next. “Are you working on a deal with Europe?” Bartiromo wondered. “Is Europe going to be your next target after you’re done with China?” It is if Uncle Don has anything to say about it! “Europe treats us worse than China,” Trump ranted. “I come from Europe, you come from Europe, you’re of the European nations. European nations were set up in order to take advantage of the United States…. They have [European Central Bank president Mario] Draghi who is—we should have Draghi instead of our Fed person. Draghi, as you know, last week he said lower interest rates and we’re going to stimulate the economy…and with us we have a Fed that keeps raising interest rates

I saw Vanilla Sky with a date. There weren't too many people in the theater so I actually noticed two couples that were together. Well, the movie sucked and one of the couples got up and left partly through the movie. When the movie was over I noticed the couple sitting outside the theater. They apparently disliked the movie enough that they preferred to sit outside the theater to wait for their friends.

I have not been in a theater since the second Pirates of the Caribbean movies.  I just looked that up and that was 13 years ago.  I have no desire to go back.  Everyone talks in this raspy voice. They think it's acting or cool or something.  Check it out.  Next time you watch a movie or TV everyone talks like they are auditioning for a death metal band.  And I have an advisor who has a client who does movie trailers.  I told him I'd give him my next two years paychecks if his client can write a trailer where there isn't a car flipping and exploding in the first 60 seconds.  He said my paychecks are safe.
