U.S. President Donald Trump attacked the news media and dismissed leaks from the White House as "fake news" on Sunday, following reports his son-in-law tried to set up a secret channel of communications with Moscow before Trump took office.

Shortly after Trump's remarks on Twitter, Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly made the rounds of Sunday television news shows to praise any so-called back channel communications, especially with Russia, as "a good thing."

The Republican president returned to the White House after a nine-day trip to the Middle East and Europe that ended on Saturday to face more questions about alleged communications between Jared Kushner and Russia's ambassador to Washington.....

Subject: Seth Rich
I just heard on One America’s News, they are investigating Seth Rich’s murder. They reported when they found Rich, he was alive and talking to them. A dr/intern reported on an online post, that he was alive and was treated for wounds that were not considered life threatening.. that many had survived such wounds. But something happened..the intern was told to shut up and no further reports... and Rich died later of his wounds.

Is this what you have heard? And if America’s one news is reporting on this... maybe Hannity can also. For awhile Hannity was the only one.

BTW. if anyone remembers the death of Ron Brown when bill clinton was President. It was suspicious and looked like he was murdered. One reporter said he didn’t believe it because he believed no US President would do such a thing. Man, if that’s the criteria for getting by with murder, then we’re in trouble. To think that, is really below stupid. There are so many incidents like these where someone is murdered and they make it look like something else... that scenario now looks like more than a scenario.. it looks bad. It looks clintonistic.

I saw that on OAN. It was excellent. It laid out all the connections to Rich’s murder very well. I hope they repeat it. The only network that is “unafraid”.

Also, the only doctor that was allowed to attend to Rich was a friend of Podesta’s and his wife. Also, the owner of the bar where he was last seen alive was friend of Podesta. Something very fishy and the media thinks that we are too stupid to see the connections.

President Trump is likely frustrated beyond belief at all the fake news. What a shame.

Where was all the press coverage of the President’s trip? I don’t watch TV and the Internet was a wasteland.

A fantastic, history-making trip ignored by the US press. They must truly believe, if you can’t say something good about a situation, say nothing about it.

Remember when Obama's "back channels" to anti-American foreign governments was lauded by this same establishment media.

MotherJones:
"Fidel Castro Has Died. Here's An Inside Look At Cuba's Crazy Back-Channel Negotiations With Obama"

NYTimes:
"How Obama’s Undercover Statecraft Secured Three Major Accords" Excerpt:

"In plotting its Cuba overture, the administration drew on the success of its secret back-channel talks with Iran."

WashingtonPost:
"The Omani 'back channel' to Iran and the secrecy surrounding the nuclear deal"

TheGuardian:
"Secret talks and a personal letter: how the US-China climate deal was done" Excerpt:

"But American and Chinese officials had been in search of an agreement – through official meetings and back-channel negotiations – since the days when George Bush was president."
