CNN's Cornish Tries To Corner Conservative Rob Bluey On Carrying ID
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelsein

Posted on 01/16/2026 3:09:31 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

In all my years of monitoring the liberal media, I've never seen anything quite like this.

On today's CNN This Morning, host Audie Cornish attempted to corner a panelist. She repeatedly tried to get Rob Bluey, an MRC alum and executive editor of the Daily Signal, to state, in light of recent ICE activities, whether he feels the need to carry ID proving he's an American . . . "Carrying papers. Rob, are you going to start carrying, like, real I.D.?"

The left wing media is part of the insurrection.

It is time to stop lying to ourselves about this.

No douche, like any official ID, like theyve been doing forever.

“Are we gonna have to start carrying ID’s, mom?” Lulu’s daughter

Things that never happened for $500, Alex

Every time I’ve been pulled over the first thing they ask for is for my license.

So I am perplexed by the media acting like this is some new and fascist rule.

I have my drivers test on me at all times. That more than enough ID. In fact it will get ne on an airline flight. I would imagine most Americans carry one like I do. The woman is not very smart.

‘ Who leaves the house without an id ?’

I have. Frequently.

Walking around the block, to a store,etc.

Show me your papers is not a thing in America and it shouldn’t be.

Since when is this acceptable for freedom loving Americans?

After thirty million illegal aliens entered the country the rules changed.

That is just one of a thousand bad things we got through no fault of our own.

How we can become boot lickers so easily.

It’s frightening.

Get off your knees.

cgbg,

You are exactly right. We would prefer it to be different. But without some efforts, even ones we may dislike, “freedom loving Americans” will lose their country and all the freedoms that go with it.

We are all on our knees right now—obeying the law and paying taxes so illegal aliens and legal non white people get to cash in....

Refusing to carry identity information solves nothing and just gets good people thrown in jail.

‘ Refusing to carry identity information solves nothing’

Just remarkable how many people give up their rights out of fear, depending on who they perceive as their ‘daddy’.

it’s absolutely pathetic.

I take ID on walks because if something happens to me I want doctors know who I am and who to contact.

It is not fear when you don’t do something stupid because it is stupid.

So it’s smart to be worried about a government agent approaching you on the street demanding your I’d or else receive punishment?

That’s the kind of country you want?

Get out of my country. Move to North Korea.

Bunch of bootlicking simps.

I do not normally insult people here on FR—but you sound like one of my relatives who was on the run from the law just because he was a drunk and an idiot.

Don’t be stupid.

Don’t advise other people to be stupid.

This is not difficult.

Being stupid is not courage.

It is stupid.

And we're paying for it in taxes.

After all, the Somalis in Minneapolis are getting rich by scamming the welfare system. Not just that, we are subsidizing them so they'll eventually replace us demographically.

We’ve both even here for more than 25 years.

These conversations always depend on who is ‘in power’ at the moment.

Clinton had black helicopters and making labor camps to house conservatives.

Bush came in, 9/11 and the patriot act and the majority here were cheering.

Obama wins and he’s going to create a federal force to destroy conservatives again.

And on and on and on.

It’s a damn pattern that anyone should be able to recognize.

Either we don’t accept a policy or government over reach or we do.

Accepting it when it’s the person I support is bs.

That’s what’s stupid, o matter how you try to justify it.
