“....Soros would have paid for it. PMSNBC is not afraid of that.”

But he can’t payoff for the negative publicity that came out of it. O’Donnell fell on his sword to protect CNN from losing more viewers and subscribers. He wouldn’t have said squat without their nod, he’s just another mouthpiece for them, a face they own. Lies will catch up with you at some point in that world and you will become extinct.

Juan Thompson, Brian Williams, Bill O’Reilly, Jayson Blair, Mike Tobin, Jonathan Karl, Stephen Glass, Michael Finkel, Ken Dilanian, Ed Schultz, Mika Brzezinski, Paige Wiser....This could take all day. Each one of these lied about something and were caught at it. And their employer, who had to approve of the topic and it’s presentation, walked. Everyone dies for a reason, some of them are public.

I don’t know if it’s true or not that O’Donnell tortures kittens to death for sexual thrills. I honestly don’t.

but, IF TRUE, he could be classified as a pussyphile

Meanwhile, the stupid ba$tard apologizes that he violated journalistic ethics, but didn’t apologize to the person he intended to hurt. And he knowingly did it.

Yes, and it is unassailable and proven. One could speculate that it was done with shielded fake “dem” money to the hacker— positioned there so to speak by... professionals.

Net Result: the Trump personal aide Madeleine Westerhout
(who met with “off the record” journalists in the middle of the Bedminster CC in NJ Trump shift of operations in the last two weeks. She met with the “journalists” and revealed family info and schedule— so it is said. She might have dropped this fake gem to O’donnell or his peeps— thus confirming her previous actions in February- where she, at that time decried the “leaking of the Pres. schedule”. She worked for Romney in 2012 and came out of the Nikki Haley—UN appt./removal from SC politics).

Two birds with one stoner-— 4Chan the “hacker” becomes paid dis-informant with cutout “dem” money they were used to receiving— and “out’s o’donnell, at the same time the bait is planted with Westerhout. So, however it got to o’donnell they are all implicated. She’s fired, 4chan is outed, and O’donnell sued out of existence.

I have a feeling that this all goes back to Trump SoHo, his bankruptcies, Felix Sater, and financing from the Bayrock Group.

“The fake leak came from his gatekeeper ... POTUS got both of them. She gone, he recants.”

Hmmm... the timing IS interesting; I’ll give you that. Makes a lot of sense.

Yes, O’Donnell deliberately left the viewers thinking that the story might be true...they just hadn’t managed to prove it yet, but stay tuned.

“What gives? “

it was simple: Trump’s lawyers sent NBC Universal a letter threatening a defamation lawsuit with evidence that a simple ONLINE search of mortgage records that anyone can perform shows that there were no co-signers for those loans ... given that damages against a President who is running for re-election could reach into the billions, NBCU ordered O’Donnell to retract ... it makes no difference where the fake email originated from: it was a fake ...

I heard, and if true, it sounds painful, that o'dumple has anal sex using an electric eel instead of a dildo.

Yeah, but the mea culpa for eagerly jumping on the story was weak, IMHO.

And you're right in saying that's the best he'll do without further pressure from either his employers or the legal system. Given the megaphone that his network provides, this passes my bar for slander, even of a public figure.

The accusation itself fails common sense on its face.

First, Trump has plenty of assets which could be pledged as collateral. Collateral is far more valuable to bank than a guarantee.

Second, how would a German bank go about collecting on a guarantee by a Russian oligarch?

Third, large real estate loans (I assume the borrowing would be real property related) are almost always done on a non-recourse basis. Non-recourse means that the lender can only collect from the income generated by the property (rents or sale) and that the owners are not personally liable.

.....In what world would a bank issue a 100+ million dollar loan to someone who isn’t credit worthy and needs a co-signer?

Co-signers are usually for auto loans and small personal loans, usually to people with no credit or bad credit.

FAKE NEWS

Only if we had a news media who would ask these questions of people who put this garbage out there.........

ROFLMAO Exactly ! who ever believed this story had to reach far to try and buy it. It not only shows Odonnell’s stupidity but his obvious agenda to broadcast such baloney. Can ‘t wait to see discovery of his source, was it 4chan? hilarious.

‘Lyin’ liar, Lawrence O’Donnell - ‘member that?’

Why yes, yes I do. Just before the election in 2004. He kept saying that to one of the swift boat vets. O’donnell Would not let the guy speak.
