Breitbart ^ | January 23, 2020 | JOEL B. POLLAK

CNN political analyst Joe Lockhart created fake news in real time during President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial in the Senate on Wednesday, falsely claiming that House Democrats were swaying Senate Republican opinions.

Lockhart tweeted: “Overheard convo between two Republican Senators who only watch Fox News. “is this stuff real? I haven’t heard any of this before. I thought it was all about a server. If half the stuff Schiff is saying is true, we’re up shit’s creek. Hope the White House has exculpatory evidence”.

As of Thursday morning, his tweet had nearly 9,000 retweets.

Joe Lockhart was Bill Clinton's Press Secretary, so keep that in mind.

This whole case is built on hearsay so this is nothing different.

This is nothing, I overheard a conversation between Schiff and Nadler, they were arguing over who gets to sleep with the interns tonight.

I know the people elected to these offices are dumb, the dems can’t get any dumber, but anyone on our side saying this should be run out of his seat.

If we had common sense licensing and regulations for Commercial Speech, this wouldn’t happen.

This A-Hole worked as spokesman for NFL.

Tells you all you need to know about NFL.

Is CNN firing him for this fraud?

I thought this guy was working for the NFL but it turns out he left in 2018. He seems to have gravitated to his natural position of media personality like so many of his ilk.

Joe Lockhart?! How many of these Clinton-era hacks can CNN hire? They must be paying them in drugs.

You did hear that Nadler and Zoe Lofgren, that buxom blonde from CA, are an item. Sorry if that made you throw up a little in your throat.....

I think you likely misheard them. What they were actually discussing was which one of them would be top and which of them would be bottom. From a purely safety standpoint, I’d have to assume that Nadler is the bottom.
