CNN’s Brian Stelter used his latest Reliable Sources monologue to bash Donald Trump’s media defenders for their dismissive reactions to the president and his allies pressuring Ukraine into investigating Joe Biden.
Stelter began by remarking on how Trump is “leading a disinformation campaign” with his attacks on Democrats and the media, all while the firestorm continues to swirl around the whistleblower report about his conversations with foreign leaders. This led to Stelter taking note of how Trump’s media and political allies are railing against the whistleblower instead off addressing the disturbing promises Trump supposedly made to foreign leaders.
“That’s the rhetoric. That’s what’s happening on the right. This shows how polluted our information environment is,” Stelter said. “There is a poisonous cloud that covers our political discourse because Trump and his media wingmen will do anything to deny, deflect and distract.”
As Stelter acknowledged that the whistleblower report hasn’t been publicly released yet, he compared the situation to Attorney General William Barr’s attempt to spin Robert Mueller’s report and put it in the most favorable light to Trump. He determined that the president is “abusing his powers for political gain,” and he said that “the press needs to provide clear explanations of what is going on” to address the complications of the story.

We have Biden describing in his own words on tape how this thing went down. This is real evidence. They had no evidence on Trump colluding with Russia because it didn’t exist and never happened. Yet they ignore Biden’s crime and continue to fabricate crimes Trump has committed, all with a straight face. That’s how insane the Left is!

Wow, the left wing is jumping head first into this Ukraine trap. President Trump has really baited them good this time on a huge corruption story that is certain to boomerang on the Democrat Party. The central figure is their favorite Democrat, Joe Biden, who happens to be their only hope for 2020. The table is set for a big stakes poker game and Rudy is holding a royal flush.
A fizzy clear drink from Staten Island?
I thought it was the guy who fronted the Stray Cats.
Ok, so now we know either someone was directly spying on Trump or someone part of the call decided to whistle blow. It would be bad if Trump said we aren't going to provide dollars unless you investigate Biden and his kid. I doubt this actually occurred. My guess is aid and Biden came up during the conversation, but were 2 separate topics.
I don't see anything wrong with Trump asking the new Ukrainian president if Biden or any other US official used their influence inappropriately. Biden is on video bragging about it and John Solomon at the Hill had written articles about that and other mischief.
What???
CNN, of all things, has a program called RELIABLE SOURCES????
ROFL!!!!
Reliably fake, maybe ...
Alternative theory. The left planted this to get Biden out of the race and blame it all on Trump.
Reliably singing the DEM party tune. Reliable as can be. Perfectly reliable.
I think that is just lucky coincidence for them, but yeah, Biden leaving the race will be "Trump's fault." Plus Trump can be accused of "foreign collusion."
This speculation is higest on my list.
I doubt the whistle blower took it upon himself to do this without prior assurances. All the usual suspects are screaming the loudest to get Trump as a twofer.
Where is his curiosity about Biden and his treasonous activity? Thought they were all about stopping Russia and our enemies?
No one cares what you think, Brian, you bulbous faggot.
Wouldn’t that be a steltzer? ;-P
No. I’d rather Biden stays in the race past his coronary (er, coronation ) as the elite-select-approved candidate .
It’s too early to cause enough confusion by throwing him out now.
The media has become so slimy and dishonorable that words to adequately describe them are impossible to find.
If Trump had iron clad proof and pictures of Biden getting it on with an 8 year old kid, all you would hear from the media is that Trump should be imprisoned for having images of naked children.
“the press needs to provide clear explanations of what is going on” = Do Anything to Deny & Deflect
“”This guy should open up his own theater, because the projection is strong with this one.””
A theater with plenty of chiropractors to fix our necks that are spinning around because of that kind of rhetoric. So the media is in the tank for Trump according to this nincompoop?
He admits this but figures he’s not part of it?
“”This shows how polluted our information environment is,” Stelter said.””
