When the media makes Trump a target
The Washington Times ^ | March 19, 2019 | John R. Lott, Jr.

Posted on 03/24/2019 9:35:51 PM PDT by rogerantone1

The national Sunday morning talk shows blamed President Trump for the New Zealand massacre that left 50 dead. CNN’s Jake Tapper warned: “I don’t think moderate Republicans are doing enough to hold President Trump accountable for his rhetoric.” NBC’s Chuck Todd noted supposed parallels to the killer’s rhetoric, and asked: “When the president uses the term ‘invaders,’ does that dehumanize to the point where it can get misused?”

The invaders are invading in a large scale invasion.

That’s just the facts.

TWEET: Paul Sperry:

TWEET: Paul Sperry:
BREAKING: I’m told by US official w knowledge of both parts of Mueller report that it cites Trump tweets critical of Mueller as among possible obstructive actions taken by Trump. Also:No evidence Roger Stone coordinated w Wikileaks.Further:Mueller consulted extensively w UK intel
https://twitter.com/paulsperry_/status/1110037868234358785

TWEET: Paul Sperry:
BREAKING: Rep. Devin Nunes, former House intel chair, said the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting was “an obvious set-up” orchestrated by Fusion GPS and ought to be criminally investigated. He also criticized Mueller for not investigating the Obama admin’s leaking of Flynn intercepts.

The report does not exonerate the president because the IG cannot exonerate nor prosecute from the findings. That is the AG’s job and it sounded like the AG exonerated the president today when he said based off the report there was no findings of criminality towards collusion and because there was no underlying criminal act done there can be no crime of obstruction. Sounds exonerated to me by the AG.

You’re mostly right but think about it - nobody is exonerated. You’re either charged with a crime or you’re not. Suppose you have a traffic accident and the police investigate, take breath alcohol sample, check your phone, the works. If the results convince the prosecutor to make a case against you, you’ll be charged. Otherwise, you go on about your business. Prosecutors always have the final call because that’s their job. Ask any cop.

Unrelated - but note that President Trump just gained a huge amount of bargaining strength with North Korea. You might say he’s got a little more flexibility now...

And what about that Stormy? Omorosa? Trump University?

Paul Sperry has two new tweets up - one a response to Adam Schiff, the other a response to Jennifer Rubin WaPo/MSNBC:

Tweet - Paul Sperry, replying to Adam Schiff tweet:
Apparently you didn’t read page 3, which states that Rosenstein and DOJ officials had “engaged in discussions” with the Special Counsel’s office regarding obstruction question “over the course of the investigation.” So your rash 48-hour decision argument looks to be a red herring

Tweet - Paul Sperry to Jennifer Rubin:
Keep drinking that Kool-Aid

Trump is heading into a reelection campaign against a gaggle of nitwit candidates with no clear winner in sight, and before a national media that has just crapped in it’s own nest who no one with a working brain believes anymore.

And he just got shed of the two-year albatross around his neck.

so many pieces that should be posted on FR as articles:

25 Mar: Townhall: Kurt Schlichter: Trump Russia Collusion Treason Was All Just Another Elite Lie
This sham investigation was not anything like the administration of justice. It was part of, as people say but we’ve stopped being shocked when we hear it, a soft coup. It was a deliberate attempt by the powerful to use the levers of government to eliminate a threat to the ruling class’s hold on political power by manufacturing a false narrative with the active assistance of those in government and media whose whole job is to prevent these sorts of fascist shenanigans.

The damage to our country is hard to calculate right now...

Let’s briefly touch on all the lives ruined on the way to this flaccid finale, especially the people swopped up in the search for a crime, any crime, in the neighborhood of the Bad Orange Man...

“When the president uses the term ‘invaders,’ does that dehumanize to the point where it can get misused?”

This bonehead should look it up. The word “invaders” means people who are invading... which they are. It doesn’t dehumanize anyone.

The refugees were offered asylum by Mexico... Yet they refused saying they were headed to the US. That’s all you need to know.

You see, refugees desperately take ANY PORT in a storm...

Invaders have a TARGET.
