Knowing what we know now, go back and look at the vid clip of him making the statements. That whole Maddow show should be sued ... every night the breathlessly say that “tomorrow Trump will fall” and people keep believing it. I hope Trump sues the Hell out of them.

“Last night I made an error in judgment by reporting an item about the president’s finances that didn’t go through our rigorous verification and standards process.”

That, and a visit from a Trump family lawyer

Correct. Melania Trump won her defamation lawsuit against a tabloid within this year. It’s best to go after these clowns now because once he’s out of office, the daggers will be out.

“.... once he’s out of office, the daggers will be out.”

I believe it’s more than just the punishment of the dishonesty. There is the standard of news proficiency which the liberal media like MSNBC has blatantly ignored because too many times they have gotten away with lies and defamation for political purposes which alleviates them of the responsibility of journalism. And the stupidity is they are misreporting something in the same way that they are trying to display as Trump’s actions to falter an election which has been proven incorrect.

I, also, believe that every time one of these political prostitutes of the left that do this should be openly and publicly point out so that not only will it force them to do their job correctly to save publication, but they will be forced at that time to accurately reporting the news so all the voter, all of them, can start on the same page to better improve our decision in the best interest of the country and not for one party or the other.

We are not supposed to be voting on a party, we are hiring people to do a job of running the country the way we, the employers, wish it to be done. And trying to influence a hiring of those people by lying is morally wrong.

Unfortunately, according to a supreme court case in the 2012 decision in United States v. Alvarez, lying is protected during a political campaign by politicians. But, as this type of instance does not fall under that due to the media not running, they are not protected by first amendment rights when it violates fraud and slander laws. Besides, it is a solid case when the media attempts to get someone fired or not hired as is this instance.

So let’s clean the slate and let the truth get out. And every time one of these agenda dealing media primadonna activists says it wrong, take some money and some reputation away from them that they obviously didn’t earn....for the people.

I was thinking, if the Deutsch Bank did have Trump’s Tax returns, and it did have evidence of what O’Donnell is alleging, then Trump and his sons would be kinda stupid to file a lawsuit since there would be discovery, and all this info now immiscible.

OTOH, maybe that shows Trump’s innocence.

Somebody who posts on 4chan or 8chan (I don’t really know what those sites are) has taken credit for this fake news. Apparently O’Donnell asks for people to send him news tips, so this guy decided to send in this story, just to see what would happen. O’Donnell loved the idea of it being true so much that he ran with it, no questions asked. I guess he felt it was an acceptable journalistic endeavor because he said twice, “If true” when he reported the bogus story.

Judy, how’s it going?

Amazing last night on Fox starting with Lou thru to Laura.

CNN and MSNBC see the IG report as full exoneration of Comey, while the rest of the true news media and anyone with half noodle for a brain, sees it as a scathing indictment of the man.

I can’t believe that he won’t go down along with the rest of them, for concocting this whole thing.

But the bigger fish is Brennan.

Hi nikos!

Going fine up here - how’s the go in your neck of the woods?

I didn’t get too upset about Comey not being indicted, as this was the same news we heard a month or so ago. He better get charged for something bigger!
