In other words, both shills got caught, can’t stand it when the news organization refuses to be part of their “shill-iness.”

This is what happens when liars lie. Teddy knows this.

I’ve heard Shapiro. He is a fanatic bordering on insane.

Good Lord, what' going on at Free Republic these days? Ben Shapiro is "bordering on insane"? Come on! You might disagree with him on certain issues, but he's a brilliant, stand-up conservative--and far from "insane." Honestly, I've seen more nasty-minded swill on this site in the past few weeks. Shapiro's a #*!@*, Mark Levin's a #*!@*, etc., etc. This goes beyond eating our own. This is tragic.

I know Steve Bannon. Bannon is a great guy. I personally knew Andrew Breitbart. He wouldn’t tolerate Michelle Fields’ garbage for one minute.

Could you imagine what Trump would be reacting if this were say ,Sen Cruz’s campaign manager?

Trump would be screaming RAPIST, RAPIST at the top if his lungs and at every tv or video camera within 200 miles of his hairspray.

Any expectation this would have a negative impact on Trump’s success tomorrow?

Physical contact is not enough in Florida. This is likely why she is making the claims of him trying to throw her down. she is probably claiming she was in fear blah blah blah.

She should never be allowed in a press scrum again.

>> It looks like Corey to me <<

Indeed.

Moreover, Corey apparently told another Breitbart staffer that he wouldn't have grabbed Michelle if he had known she was working for Breitbart.

(I guess that in a courtroom, Corey's statement would be called an admission against interest.)

Still, the entire matter is a non-event to the Trump Brigade, because they know that neither Mr. Trump nor any of his associates can ever do anything wrong. So move along. Nothing to see here.

This is where it gets sticky. Boyle claimed in an email that he never said Corey made that confession. Daily Beast is claiming they are standing by their reporter in their story.

I don’t know the update on that part of this story.

This is very simple. FOX News has grown since Obamie came into power, they, and the establishment intended all along for Hillary to win. Bush was their “hand chosen” one to take the fall.(Bush and his turtle didn’t have a clue)

If Trump wins the presidency, who is going to tune in FNC when our country is on the right track? The ONLY reason FOX has grown is because our country is in constant turmoil....and that’s what FOX needs, turmoil to continue.

No. Why would it?

A) most people in OH don’t even know who the hell Fields is, and
B) by most polls (if you believe them) 60-80% of minds are made up. (We just don’t know which way they are made up !)

except of course the texts and etc from Corey totally demolish this lie. He never wrote or said what you are claiming he said.

This is hilarious, a brush past is now seized by a bunch of right leaning Juiceboxers as a way to amp their book sales using THE EXACT SAME SJW tactics that they get paid to expose in paid speeches (Shapiro) and elsewhere.

My God. Has the world gone nuts? Shapiro is rather stupid. I have no doubt that he can study well but his ignorant views on trade and basic economics is laughable.

Please post the video showing an assault. There is not one.

The moment you are talking about, Lewandowsky was already beyond a position where he could have pulled her backwards (law of action/reaction). Even Trump people can’t defy gravity or inertia.

Previous videos are inconclusive at best. The latest video and still photos CLEARLY show it was not Lewandowski, but almost more importantly it was a NONevent. She was “tugged” a little bit. BIG DEAL! She was sticking her hand (with some unknown device in it) towards Trump’s gut. From the Secret Service agent’s perspective, would this be seen as a THREAT? The SS agent doesn’t know Michelle Fields (even though she is a legend in her own mind).

There is NO DOUBT, this event as described, NEVER HAPPENED! It was a nothingWhopper!

GET OVER IT.

Is that you Megyn????

It’s not. And you can do it. I can move someone back when my arm is behind me.

For all the people saying this can’t be done. TRY IT.

Just looking at the color of the collar of the dress shirts on the two men behind trump (in the still photo when she was touching his arm), one a security type and the other Corey, it seems pretty obvious to me that in this video it was Corey who walked past her and moving her out of the way, perhaps even grabbing her arm. However, no direct evidence that I have seen shows him grabbing her arm, especially that slow motion video with the circle, which is basically garbage.

I highly doubt you could call that assault per the video. I doubt any jury would convict on an assault charge in a criminal case, and even a civil suit would likely get laughed out of court.

I believe, as I have stated before, that she is a serial victim and that is her play here, with the bonus being that it’s Mr. Trump’s campaign manager who is the ultimate target, thus Mr. Trump through him.

Instant fame and instant celebrity from the MSM.

Andrew Breitbart wouldn’t be happy with what’s happened to his site.
