The question of protecting Obama is very complicated and I don’t know the right answer.

The fact that they have found no evidence proves Trump hid it!

CNN has already exposed itself to be A den of Liars Frauds and Un American Conspirators.

Sane people dont listen to them any more.

The new talking points term for Separation of Powers and for Executive Privilege is “cover up”. I guess that phrase is now polling better than the left’s attempts at “quid pro quo” and “bribery”. Globalists disgust me.

325 million or so American citizens should be tried too then, since there’s no evidence of them robbing a bank.

In the houses’ rush to impeach,
they chose to bypass the legal
means to get this information.
And now they scream coverup.
It boggles the mind.

They are just doubling down, because there is no alternative for them.


They are just doubling down because there is no reason not to. The Dems have the green light from the GOP Senate to gaslight the false narrative at their leisure.

Well, that is true too in the short term for them. (This article was specifically from a media standpoint by CNN...they are the ones doubling down, IMO)

But make no mistake-there are larger numbers of people than ever before who view what the media is putting out with a more doubtful eye. Not enough, but more.

“The only way to end this sh*t is to take back the house”.

Nancy has already given us a head start on that with the dim’s loss of a House seat in NJ. LOL

“It’s too bad these propaganda outlets couldn’t’t be prosecuted for abusing their first amendment rights”.

IMHO, I think they are in violation of their FCC license to broadcast on OUR airwaves.

I just learned that the airports are being paid by the media outlets (CNN) to carry their broadcast.

Since the airports are federally regulated they should fall under a fair bidding process which should end the monopoly.

This should be looked into.

FYI:

The FCC was created by Congress with the Communications Act. - “... It directs us to base our broadcast licensing decisions on whether those actions will serve the public interest, convenience, and necessity”.

News Distortion. The Commission often receives complaints concerning broadcast journalism, such as allegations that stations have aired inaccurate or one-sided news reports or comments, covered stories inadequately, or overly dramatized the events that they cover.

For the reasons noted previously, the Commission generally will not intervene in these cases because it would be inconsistent with the First Amendment to replace the journalistic judgment of licensees with our own.

However, as public trustees, broadcast licensees may not intentionally distort the news. The FCC has stated that “rigging or slanting the news is a most heinous act against the public interest.”

The Commission will investigate a station for news distortion if it receives documented evidence of rigging or slanting, such as testimony or other documentation, from individuals with direct personal knowledge that a licensee or its management engaged in the intention

Exactly - they claim that since there was a meeting, they really really need to get transcripts of all of the words spoken because, “There just has to be some evidence of wrongdoing somewhere” even though they have yet to produce a single shred.

They are so desperate that now they have to call for how many sheets of toilet paper he went through, and have him produce them in case there’s secret messages written on them, or he’s obstructing the investigation that supposedly ended when they voted on the sham.

I personally love these type articles because it shows how desperate they are and gives me good material to troll them with on Twitter.

Happy New Year - may it be the best one yet and the worst of those to come....(I think that’s an old Irish drinking blessing/toast but it seems apropos for Italians and Pollacks too...)

A “real trial” in the Senate would have to have Quid Pro Joe, Humper Biden, Paul Pelousy, and Traitor Kerry’s “marry the money” stepson give testimony under oath.
