After an Alleged Assault, the Trump Campaign Launches a Vicious, Deceptive Attack on Michelle Fiel

Fields accused Allen West of sexual assault (groping), claimed she got beat up by the NYPD with batons, and also accused Charles Johnson of hacking her LinkIN page, then retracted the accusation without apology after Johnson forced her to apologize by going to her bosses.

Looking at an actual video of the event, we see literally every journalist with either a cell phone camera or an actual camera aimed at Trump and his staff, yet we’re supposed to believe that no one caught Fields being grabbed so tightly and throw that she developed bruises in less than an hour, but no one captured the moment.

Politico then puts out an audio recording “transcript” alleging that it confirms what happened, and then Breitbart suspends one of its journalists who questioned Michelle Field’s story very innocently on his twitter feed.

Apparently this is how Fields gets work. She was fired from previous jobs for not actually doing any work, and apparently she doesn’t do anything to cover Ted Cruz (her job) other than read twitter or facebook. So, to keep her job, she goes around and inserts herself into the news to keep her job, and the retards at Breitbart are buying it pretty hard and silencing dissent even among their own ranks.

Breitbart was practically a Trump house publication for a while.

That's because Cruz supporters only consider a publication to be balanced if it resembles National Review or Right Scoop. Breitbart has that freak Ben Shapiro-- who complained about Trump's Muslim immigration moratorium, calling it unethical, even though he's called for ethnic cleansing Palestinians in his townhall articles-- along with our old, closet queer Edmund Wright. He used to post around here till he got zotted or, at least, suspended till after the election is over. That prick was sending me private messages bragging about getting partially suspended in the past, basically saying FR Mods are scum and that he was proud.

That's who Breitbart has writing some of their articles, but the Cruzbots think Breitbart is a propaganda organ.

Yeah, Lewandowski originally said he didn’t realize who Fields was with.

Lewandowski never said any such thing. This was Mediate citing anonymous "sources" who paraphrased quotations alleging that's what he said. Mediate then points out that the person he allegedly said it too refused to comment for their story. Right now Breitbart is citing WAPO as their evidence that it happened and an audio transcript. That tells you how valid Mediate's anonymous sources really were.

Exactly. There is audio. Trumpers cry that there is no proof. The guy wven admitted it at first, then retracted. Trumpers call her names and still call her a liar. Trump is the worst thing to happen to the GOP since Bush’s second term. There will be a whole lot of stupid people holding nothing when Trump rules like the north east liberal he really is.

Based on her own account of what happened. She was yanked. Thats ALL. She didn’t fall at all. I fail to see how this is a big deal even if everything she said was true.

Exactly. There is audio. Trumpers cry that there is no proof.

There are videos of Trump and Co. walking, not one catching the alleged moment of violence. And the videos show that literally every person in the building had either a cell phone camera up and pointed or a regular camera. So Politico provides an audio "transcript" that Breitbart apparently doesn't even have, provided by a woman who has accused Allen West of sexual assault and has claimed to have been beaten with batons by the New York Police Department, along with accusing people of hacking her social media then retracting it without comment.

If it happened there would be video of the magical moment. Not an audio by a known fraudster who has no business working for a "conservative" news agency. But Breitbart also gives Ben Shapiro free reign, that scumbag who called Trump's Muslim immigration moratorium plan "unethical," even though he writes articles about the Palestinians calling for ethnic cleansing.

This is the same bimbo that accused Allen West of sexually harassing her.

She also accused the NYPD of assaulting her during the “occupy” protest.

Both accusations turned out to be lies so you’ll forgive us if we don’t believe her. There’s absolutely no proof.

We want video evidence or maybe an reenactment of what happened. Her text description is vague and to me its not a big deal, but maybe an reenactment could change my mind of what really happened

He said she said.

Others accounts differ substantially.

What is a fact is Fields has a history of taunting security/police trying to make herself the story.

Maybe she should think about sticking to the weather desk.

I actually got Joel Pollack of Breitbart to engage with me on that point, and Joel was stunned into silence when I showed him the article, before he returned to being snotty. Many Breitbart writers are dishonest and two-faced. Today, Breitbart even suspended “indefinitely” one of their writers because he said, on his twitter page, that video should be provided to back up the accusations.

Breitbart has good workers and writers in their, but also a cabal of people like Ben Shapiro and others who are extremely dishonest.

Remember this? Was this Michelle Field treated more poorly than this reporter? In this case there was photo and video evidence, the reporter was pushed to the ground and it was the reporter's fault. If you just read this reporters account of what happened, you will assumed the Secret Service was in the wrong

I noticed Breitbart has posted several anti-trump articles during the past week. This is a recent development. I could only assume there was a boss change at Breitbart

A Breitbart reporter getting suspended because he was suspicious of what happened because there was no video evidence is ridiculous

Corey Lewandowski (@CLewandowski_) tweeted at 2:02 PM on Thu, Mar 10, 2016:
Michelle Fields is an attention seeker who once claimed Allen West groped her but later went silent. https://t.co/J86Ej42eYx

Except, of course, the Daily Caller published photos of her being pushed to the ground by the NYPD at the time, and several of them have been reposted recently as a result of Trump’s attacks. But yeah, all a lie.

Years ago I attended a candidate's speech and as we stood waiting for him to shake hands, reporters behind me started to push me closer to the secret service agent.

The agent told me to step back and I told him I couldn't hold back the reporters behind me. The agent took hold of my arms and used me as a ram to press the reporters back, lol.

I should of made a scene and gotten big attention.
