Wednesday night, CNN’s Jake Tapper highlighted some left-wing violence which hasn’t gotten much media attention.

At least two journalists in Charlottesville were assaulted by people protesting the Klan/Nazi/alt-right rally. Taylor is one: https://t.co/haVOw89uTN

If Antifa is attacking CNN reporters it’s only because they’re fascists. So shut up Tapper.

That is such an effective statement that I wish there was some way in which it could go viral.

Excellent statement.

I watch One American News mostly now, and they did a great job of covering how antifa was about violence, and the Gov, mayor, the deputy mayor who has made racial, and sexist comments..

It was very insightful and the only news station which mentions Soros, his funding, the antifa violence, and even the refugees going to Europe setting up no go areas.

We need to do whatever we can to boost One America News Network, because they are the only seedling we have that might actually grow into an effective counter to the Liars that run and work at the other networks.

The conservative side needs a voice with national reach. This network might become that voice if we help it grow.

Good job.

Also a liberal is a conservative that hasn’t been mugged.

Yet.

If Trump mentions it as a CNN story it might get attention. lol He needs to present something that bolsters the case of both sides other than I’m the only one telling you this is what happened.

Ace put it best: if he doesn’t put it on his show who gives a sh!t? He’s just throwing conservatives a bone on Twitter. If he cared, he’d put it on his show.

Any chance his superiors at CNN have shut him down about putting it on the air? Maybe that’s why he mentioned it on Twitter.

Good one, but no.

I was surprised how young he seemed. Maybe mid 30’s. Clearly very talented to even get his position and someone that didn’t seem very political at all. Someone that was just doing the job he was being told to do.

That’s why I left him with Pink Floyd playing.

Totally agree. Conservatives on here,and elsewhere need to promote this channel as they are the only ones stating the truth.

They probably apologized to the antifa guys knocking them around for being in their way.

Someone has to wake Sessions first. BTW, is anyone running the FBI? Where are they in all of this?

Only one explanation that fits according to your libtard reporting bias, Jake: your reporters are obviously racist and Trump supporters.

The facts are on The Donald's side--the mass hysteria will pass and the facts will prove him right.

So how long will it be before Establishment Republicans sheepishly get behind Trump again--without, of course, issuing an apology?

Well, they do claim to be anti-fascist. I guess there's some good in everybody.

#1: Quit calling them “protesters”. They are domestic terrorists who protest nothing, but want to do damage to anything in their path, just like ISIS!

Jake Tapper better be careful or the Southern Poverty Law Center will declare CNN a 'hate group'.

With the media and cowardly politicians refusing to condemn antifa and BLM as Trump did, there is going to be a free for all. The media and politicians gave them a free pass in spite of their recent violent history. Trump should throw it back at them when TSHTF. If these people want to side with cop haters and killers it’s the media and white libs in big blue cities who are going to bear the consequences
