How can this newspaper just get away with printing fiction?

This isn’t “freedom of the press” - it’s a purposeful effort to damage this Presidency and this country and whip the idiot leftists into a violent frenzy.

What Fake News outlet started the lie? Washington ComPost? CNN? Newsweak?

The ComPost quoted Jim Acosta who cited "inside sources" who "wished to remain anonymous" as is always the case.

In other words, Acosta just made it up and the Post ran with it.

Rosenstein turns out to be a good pickup for Trump.

Shortly after the news of Comey’s firing came out, newsies got ahead of themselves again by claiming Rosenstein did threaten to quit.

They have gotten in the habit of ‘reporting’ what they want to happen or hope happens, rather than what actually does happen.

These reporters and the news organizations have no morals or integrity. They are just political hacks. The left has taken over our educational system and our news media. They use our morals against us.

The Washington Post is a propaganda outlet for domestic enemies and their allies.

SHUT IT DOWN.

The news media was always made up of hacks!
From Thomas Jefferson’s Phillip Freneau who claimed George Washington wanted to be king to Greeley to Hearst to now!

Now particularly the TV newsies, who are nothing more then actor wannabes who can’t sing, dance or act but look good in front of the camera! They sort of can read their lines off the monitors. Otherwise they would have to get job more befitting their talents like traffic cone!

All this visceral hatred of Trump seems to always lead back to that disasterous Iran deal...

Why, I was just reading in the Washington Post this morning about the two children walking in the woods who ran into a wolf dressed as their grandma. The reporters’ names were The Brothers Grimm, or something similar.

BREAKING NEWS:

The Washington Compost just announced that the Deputy AG Rosenstein is quitting.... an ANNOMOUS source said that in the heat of an meeting he was having with President Trump, he told him straight up: “It's either ME or Comey, your not going to have both of us”...

My ‘fake news’ story sounds better, I think we all should start writing articles and posting them here under their headers and erasing what they say and put in our own stories!!!

I believe Cartwright was known as “Obama’s butt boy”.

My theory is that we have someone in the Trump camp planting some information selectively to individuals they suspect of leaking to the MSM. They then see what information surfaces in the MSM to identify the culprit.

The alleged request for additional resources for the Russia investigation and the Rosenstein threat of resignation sound like planted information that could be easily proven false once the leak is made public. McCabe said there was no such need for additional resources and Rosenstein denies any threat to resign.

And it has the added benefit of further damaging the credibility of the MSM.

I just read were mccabe testified that they didn’t ask for an additional funds That that’s not the process anyway they wouldn’t ask anybody for additional

...So I think I know where you’re going ...Comey doing a shakedown on Trump?..That would fit the reason they fired him while he was on the road with no notice that they could lock him out of the office

and that would fit Something I thought about Comey since the Hillary email..

his laundry list of her problems and then turn around saying hr wouldn’t prosecute

and then his letter opening and closing the case just a week before the election

Comey was blackmailing Hillary..sending her a message ..”I can take you down at will”
I really honestly believe that last week before the election when Comey reopened the case was blackmail...

and then closed it a weekly later was for a bribe or Promise from Hillary for some goody When she got elected
