Breitbart News planning lawsuit against 'major media company'
The Hill ^ | 11/15/2016 | JOE CONCHA

Posted on 11/15/2016 10:59:46 AM PST by GilGil

Breitbart News is preparing a lawsuit against a "major media company" over claims that it is a white nationalist website, it said in an exclusive statement to The Hill.

The website has been under intense scrutiny since President-elect Donald Trump named Stephen Bannon as a senior White House counselor and strategist. Bannon is the former executive chairman of Breitbart News, and the site has become associated with the “alt-right” movement that helped propel Trump’s candidacy.

"Breitbart News Network, a pro-America, conservative website, is preparing a multi-million dollar lawsuit against a major media company for its baseless and defamatory claim that Breitbart News is a ‘white nationalist website,’” the statement reads.

"Breitbart News cannot allow such vicious racial lies to go unchallenged, especially by cynical, politically-motivated competitors seeking to diminish its 42 million monthly readers and its number one in the world political Facebook page. Breitbart News rejects racism in all its varied and ugly forms. Always has, always will," the statement continues.

A guy from National Review was on a local talk radio this morning spewing the same thing. I wanted the radio host to say “Prove It.” But of course, he was one of the debbie downers about Trump.

Prove it, where is your evidence. And if I find the same type of posts on your website, you are as guilty of it as Breitbart.

Antisemitic... really? They want to sling that around?

“What does “White Nationist” mean?”

It means if you are White, you might just actually like yourself. And you aren’t afraid to say it out loud. We need a whole lot more of it. Right now we are ruled by the tyranny of the minority.

The other thing the MSM is trying to accomplish is to isolate Trump as much as possible from his support system — family, staff, and even the people who voted for him. They are insidious. They went after Bannon like piranha fish, trying to get rid of him because he is an exceptionally brilliant threat.

Today on PMSNBC, they were going after Rudy Guliani tooth and tong, trying to paint him as “crooked” Rudy, their play on “crooked” Hillary, because Rudy has cruised the world giving speeches for money. Of course they totally ignore the fact that Rudy gave substantive speeches as his company’s business is terrorist consulting and that is of course, a worldwide phenomena. IMO, this is actually a big resume plus for Rudy should he be made Secretary of State. He knows so many of the international top dogs already. But I digress. The purpose of the MSM is to separate Trump from Rudy, one of his key advisers whom he trusts, and try to knock him out of the box like they tried (without success) to do to Bannon after the fact. With Rudy, they want to get rid of him before the fact.

Then there are his three kids, who have been advising Trump right along throughout his campaign, but now the MSM wants to make sure the three of them don’t get any kind of top secret clearance, so that they will have minimal influence with their Dad and will not be in constant contact with him like they have been, once again isolating Trump from his own family. Plus they are going after his very home in NYC, saying he really shouldn’t be staying there anymore.

So that boxes Trump into mainly the WH (Melania probably took one look at the Wookies’ living quarters, and recoiled in horror). Well, she can have fun redecorating it, preferably all in gold, lol. They are saying Trump should relocate to their Mar A Lago estate in FL, a bit off the beaten path, wouldn’t you say?

Somehow I don’t see Camp David as being an especially good fit with the Trump lifestyle, lol. I suspect Trump had a suite built for himself and his family in his new Trump Hotel in Washington D.C. Only a few blocks away and an escape route for them, although it would become an armed fortress any time they went there. Plus an easier target for those up to no good.

They are actually better off high on top of Trump Tower. He can helicopter to the roof of the Tower, and commute between NYC and Wash. D.C. Probably the safest option. But again I digress. Bottom line, the MSM/Dems (one and the same) are going to try to make life as miserable as possible for our 45th President and his family, friends, staff, and supporters. The MSM will do what they do best, try to destroy reputations, and tear down the President as best they can, while isolating him as much as possible.

Lastly, as of today, now they are going after Trump because he went to dinner with his family without the tag-a-long media as his dinner partners. No free meals paid for the reporters by their corporate entities while tracking Trump. No steaks for them; of course liberals purportedly hate meat anyhow.

How in heaven’s name did prior Presidents up to but not including most recent times, ever get by, do their jobs and live through the experience while not having the MSM tailing them every minute of the day. Actually prior Presidents were lucky they didn’t have to contend with the obnoxious media every second of their lives. Even this is an attempt to isolate the President by surrounding him all the time, giving him no peace, and little time to just be himself in interactions with others.

Now really lastly, today they try to portray to the populace a picture of disarray and chaos within the Trump staff in going about the tedious and time consuming process of filling cabinet posts and approximately 4,000 positions during this transition period. It’s been barely a week since Trump has even been elected President, one lousy week. Bush didn’t appoint anyone until 2 weeks into his transition period. Obama was slow as molasses in January in getting people appointed. Two years later he still didn’t have all positions filled.

The MSM needs to go away, wither up, and die. That is my humble opinion.
