MSNBC Analyst: Buzzfeed's Been Debunked, but Hey, Something Could Still Turn Up!

Keep Hope Alive!

Back when The Wall Stree Journal's James Taranto wrote the paper's 'Best of the Web' column, one of his rubrics was 'Diagram this Sentence,' in which readers were challenged to deconstruct a long and confusing line from a [usually] liberal author. On Saturday's AM Joy, MSNBC legal analyst Maya Wiley offered a prime example of the genre.

Responding to the refutation by the Mueller team of Buzzfeed's report that President Trump had ordered Michael Cohen to lie about Russia collusion, Wiley said:

"In this case, it doesn't mean, what we are hearing in this, does not mean that we know that there won't in the future be corroborated evidence of Donald Trump having knowledge of, and in some way being part of, what could be, could be -- and I'm speculating -- could be a conspiracy to suborn perjury. That is a possibility. We don't know."

It’s a new twist on “fake, but accurate”.

Yes, an MSNBC ‘legal analyst’ actually said this. The debunking by Mueller of the Buzzfeed accusation:

“does not mean that we know that there won’t in the future be corroborated evidence.”

Right, and we don’t know that in the future Hillary won’t tear off her mask and reveal herself to be an alien.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

So buzzfraud is debunked, but liberals still say something else could turn up, even though this fizzled out??? What are we really saying here?

Fake News and Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama are a religion for some folks.

That might sound like I’m joking, but I’m not.

It is all too real.

I watched Joy Reid this morning. She just switched it to Trump wanting to build a hotel in Russia, which is filled with Russians because it is in Russia. And that could very well be a major conspiracy or something. Russia Russia Russia.

This is kinda like evolution; if you dissemble a watch and place all the parts in a cigar box, then shake it long enough, you’ll pull a running watch out of the box.

That lie was revealed as a lie, so try something else.

And when we were kids we believed in fairy tales. Eventually however we matured into adults.

This was the original talking points that got started Jan/17. “Just because there is no evidence doesn’t mean he’s not guilty”. “We have to investigate”.

This at a time when they couldn’t even tell us what crime was committed..
