No one doubts that the liberal media acts as an arm of the Democrat party. But MSNBC's Yasmin Vossoughian has now provided an absolutely brazen example of the phenomenon. Usually, they refrain from using the royal We when discussing Democrat strategy.
Vossoughian subbed for Ari Melber on his MSNBC show The Beat on Thursday. Interviewing ultraliberal Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland, Vossoughian three times asked Raskin which was the best way that "we" should go after Attorney General Bill Barr and/or the Mueller report and testimony by Mueller.
After Raskin called Barr's attitude "constitutionally intolerable," Vossoughian responded.
"You’re bringing up a really good point here. Because one of the, I think, directives here, and the big question here is, do we pursue the Attorney General until he provides testimony for the House? Or, do we pursue the unredacted Mueller report along with testimony from Bob Mueller? Is that where we put our energy?"

Collusion? We got your collusion right here: between the liberal media and the Democrats.
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
They know the jig is up. They no longer see a reason to hide their allegiance.
Key word “WE”. Actually I’m kinda glad theey’re not hiding it any more.
Like we didn’t believe they were just a bolt-on part of the Democrat Party all along.
I can’t wait for Barr to start sending some of these crooks to jail.
Her nose is the size of a cucumber!...............
“They know the jig is up. They no longer see a reason to hide their allegiance”.
BINGO!
Collusion? We got your collusion right here: between the liberal media and the Democrats.

It’s not just collusion, on a political level, it’s downright conspiracy.
Of course, it’s the media conspiring with our politicians, and not a foreign actor, so it’s not really criminal. It only defies incredulity how far “journalism” has gone away from objectivity and aversion to bias
I’ll see your collusion and raise it with an act of sedition...
Just a guess but is Yasmin the one on the left?
I have literally run out of ways to describe how disgusted I am with these creatures. And they have the gall to wonder why they are so reviled.
Engaging in a Conspiracy to Obstruct justice by Intimidating a Prosecutor used to be crime in this country.
Kimberly Strassel: AG Barr gets attacked because his probe endangers powerful people!
The only thing uglier than an angry Washington is a fearful Washington. And fear is what’s driving this week’s blitzkrieg of Attorney General William Barr.
Mr. Barr tolerantly sat through hours of Democratic insults at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Wednesday. His reward for his patience was to be labeled, in the space of a news cycle, a lawbreaking, dishonest, obstructing hack. Speaker Nancy Pelosi publicly accused Mr. Barr of lying to Congress, which, she added, is “considered a crime.” House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler said he will move to hold Mr. Barr in contempt unless the attorney general acquiesces to the unprecedented demand that he submit to cross-examination by committee staff attorneys. James Comey, former director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, lamented that Donald Trump had “eaten” Mr. Barr’s “soul.” Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren demands the attorney general resign. California Rep. Eric Swalwell wants him impeached.
These attacks aren’t about special counsel Robert Mueller, his report or even the surreal debate over Mr. Barr’s first letter describing the report. The attorney general delivered the transparency Democrats demanded: He quickly released a lightly redacted report, which portrayed the president in a negative light. What do Democrats have to object to?
TRUMP TELLS DEMS ‘IT’S OVER,’ SAYS MCGAHN WON’T TESTIFY, HITS BIDEN’S ‘VERY DUMB STATEMENT’ IN FOX NEWS INTERVIEW
Some of this is frustration. Democrats foolishly invested two years of political capital in the idea that Mr. Mueller would prove President Trump had colluded with Russia, and Mr. Mueller left them empty-handed. Some of it is personal. Democrats resent that Mr. Barr won’t cower or apologize for doing his job. Some is bitterness that Mr. Barr is performing like a real attorney general, making the call against obstruction-of-justice charges rather than sitting back and letting Democrats have their fun with Mr. Mueller’s obstruction innuendo.

But most of it is likely fear. Mr. Barr made real news in that Senate hearing, and while the press didn’t notice, Democrats did. The attorney general said he’d already assigned people at the Justice Department to assist his investigation of the origins of the Trump-Russia probe. He said his review would be far-reaching – that he was obtaining details from congressional investigations, from the ongoing probe by the department’s inspector general, Michael Horowitz, and even from Mr. Mueller’s work. Mr. Barr said the investigation wouldn’t focus only on the fall 2016 justifications for secret surveillance warrants against Trump team members but would go back months earlier.
He also said he’d focus on the infamous “dossier” concocted by opposition-research firm Fusion GPS and British former spy Christopher Steele, on which the FBI relied so heavily in its probe. Mr. Barr acknowledged his concern that the dossier itself could be Russian disinformation, a possibility he described as not “entirely speculative.” He also revealed that the department has “multiple criminal leak investigations under way” into the disclosure of classified details about the Trump-Russia investigation.
thanks for the laugh
Demorats=RACISSS
Every demoRAT is sickening, liars, thieves, sneaks, can’t look you in the eye one on one and tell the truth about anything...anyone who would vote for a demoRAT is a RAT themselves and deserves to be treated like the above...
RINOs are the same, and there are a lot of them in the Rep. party and we need to weed them out along with the demoRATS…
I say vote for every REP. this next election your having, and we will weed out the RINOs in the next election and keep going until we get the Government that Our President is trying so hard to build for us...
NO RATS EVER IS OUR MOTTO!!!
Barr is the only guy who can tamp this crap down. when people start worrying about their long term future things will change . Take out the wise guy in the class everyone else gets in line.
These freaks had better start trying to get an audience back instead of making the others go away with all this liberal talk..Bill BARR IS NOT AFRAID OF YOU BULLIES SO GET A GRIP IDIOTS..
“Or, do we pursue the unredacted Mueller report”
It’s sitting in a secure room at the Capitol Building for congress to read.
Sorry nothing new here with the “WE”.
But my favorite story today from the Fake News universe is this one: Beto O’Rourke emerges as the most electable Democrat in a “CNN” poll that shows he would beat Trump by 10 points – and the only front-runner the president would beat is Elizabeth Warren
LOL you talk about CNN desperation to get viewership and READERSHIP!-)
