Wildly condescending ’60 Minutes’ host blames Trump for America’s fears, scolds HIM for riots
ETF News (EndingFed News Network) ^ | 11/14/2016

The mainstream media bias against Donald Trump isn’t letting up anytime soon. If anything, it’s heating up.

President-elect Trump was badgered by “60 Minutes” host Lesley Stahl, who demanded to know why he’s not stopping the protests raging across the country.

The condescending Stahl apparently forgot that: (1) Trump isn’t in office yet; (2) He just got elected 6 days ago, and (3) Most of the violent riots/protests are ANTI-Trump.

The MSM is never going to stop trying to take Trump down. They are ideological opponents who would dance on the bones of conservatives and cheer the burning of America. Trump needs to strengthen conservative media - grant interviews to OANN, Breitbart, conservative talk radio, etc. Make the media go through them to get any current Trump statements.

What we’re hopefully witnessing is the death rattles of mainstream media influence.

It is fighting for relevance. Witness the NY SLIMES recent pretend mea culpa.

Why did Trump grant CBS the first tv interview? Mainstream media needs a big boycott.

The demonstrators are not protesting Trump.

Demonstrators will come out when:

1. There’s an environmental conference in town.
2. When an aggressive black thug is gunned down.
3. When George Soros and others pay.

for example.

My understanding is that Trump said we was for eliminating the Electoral College?

That was a gotcha question that Leslie Stalin had high hopes for. She was hoping for "Oh, not anymore now that I won." Instead he pivoted in a very professional manner that was as good as can be expected.

Yes, he said he had problems with it before the election, and that he wasn’t going to change his opinion just because worked out in his favor this time.

Like everyone said, “He’s not a Conservative.” After Donald J. Trump finishes doing all the things he has promised: build the wall, deport illegals and Syrian invaders, cancel Obama’s unconstitutional executive orders, roll back twenty years of intrusive government regulations, prosecute Hillary and her crew, release the secret 28 pages from the 9/11 report, negotiate prescription drug purchases, repeal and replace Obamacare, simplify the Tax code, repatriate $2.5 trillion in off-shore profits, stop the IRS from abridging the free speech of Christian Churches, reform the libel laws to remove the “public figure” distinctions, defund Planned Parenthood until they stop doing abortions, cleaning up the mess that is the VA, cutting waste, fraud and abuse where ever it is found, canceling Common Core and returning control of education to the States, end the assault on the Second Amendment, audit the Federal Reserve System, investigate the harmful additives in Vaccines and the coverup of studies at the CDC, and destroy the culture of Political Correctness, then we can talk about all the “conservative” issues that need to be addressed.

President Trump should limit interviews to Laura Ingraham, Michael Savage, Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, and Jeanine Pirro until more decorum and good manners are displayed.

Leslie Stalin tried to get him to commit to never, ever, ever using Twitter as president. Fail! He needs to throw the media a bone once in a while, have a reasonable number of press conferences, NOT appear on the late night comedy propaganda junk, but mostly go directly to the people. I’m convinced Reagan would have used Twitter.

Most of the violent riots/protests are ANTI-Trump.

Most? I guess 100% could be characterized as "most" ...

4. The local NBA team wins a championship.
5. Immigration laws are enforced, or may be enforced.

I believe Leslie Stahl started out as a staffer for Mayor John Lindsay. She is still kicking.

Trump rightly slammed the biased media for over a year during his entire candidacy, but on the heels of his election, what does he do? He immediately went on one of the most notoriously liberal shows on TV and subjected himself (and his prestige) to cross examination by none other than the long time nemesis of conservatives, the unfair and condescending Lesley Stahl. What was he thinking?

Big mistake in my opinion. There was no need to rush to talk to these jackals who have no interest in informing viewers about anything. They only want headlines and soundbites at his expense. Don’t give them what they want.

We were simultaneously typing the same sentiment.
Mainstream media needs to learn about courtesy. These churlish and insubordinate people need a time-out. GMTA!

Trump administration could mean new life for Clinton Foundation probe

By Evan Perez, CNN Justice Correspondent

Washington (CNN)The FBI has spent more than a year looking into the Clinton Foundation without getting beyond the starting gates. That could soon change.
Investigators at the FBI’s New York office, who unsuccessfully argued for months that they should be allowed to open a full-blown investigation of the foundation, could find a more friendly audience in a Donald Trump administration Justice Department.

The President-elect railed during the closing weeks of the campaign against the relationship between foundation donors and Hillary Clinton’s work in government as “corrupt.”
He promised there would more investigations of the Clintons if he were elected.
Soon, top officials he appoints at the Justice Department will have the power make that happen.

And the FBI investigators may have more ammunition to make their case with stolen emails from Clinton aides released in recent weeks by WikiLeaks.
The emails showed internal fights over the foundation between Chelsea Clinton and a top aide to her father, Doug Band, who helped run the foundation. Chelsea Clinton, according to the emails, was concerned about possible conflicts of interest and problems related to Bill Clinton’s paid speech-making business, dubbed “Bill Clinton Inc.” The dispute prompted the foundation to conduct an internal audit of its activities. Band hit back at Chelsea Clinton, according to the emails, suggesting she used the foundation to pay for her wedding.

Rudy Giuliani, considered a contender for attorney general or other top cabinet post, according to people familiar with Trump transition planning, said Thursday that the new president will have to make a decision on what to do about his promises to hire a special prosecutor to investigate matters related to Clinton.
“It’s been a tradition in our politics to put things behind us,” Giuliani said on CNN’s “New Day.” “On the other hand, you have to look at how bad was it? Because suppose somebody comes along a year from now and is alleged to have stolen $50,000 from a charity — and (Clinton) was never investigated for hundreds of millions.”
Messages left with the Clinton Foundation seeking comment were not returned.
