BREAKING from CNN: According to reports, during a private conversation, Nancy Pelosi informed Joe Biden that recent polls indicated he would not be able to defeat Donald Trump in a presidential election.

Despite this information, Biden disagreed with the assessment, prompting Pelosi to call an advisor to provide him with the actual survey results.

The “Suckers and Losers” hoax is going around again. When you see the propagandists posting it, refer them to this:

John Kelly did not “confirm” Trump called Soldiers suckers and losers.

Propaganda articles used misleading, clickbait headlines such as “John Kelly Confirmed...” when he did no such thing. In the text of these articles they either quote, or link back to a CNN article in which John Kelly expressed his opinion on rumors he heard alleging Trump made these remarks.

I have literally read every one of the articles. I have researched this extensively. It’s a hoax stemming from an article in the Atlantic citing “Unnamed sources”. They cite this statement to CNN by John Kelly as “confirmation”:

“”A person that thinks those who defend their country in uniform, or are shot down or seriously wounded in combat, or spend years being tortured as POWs are all ‘suckers’ because ‘there is nothing in it for them,’” Kelly said of Trump. “A person that did not want to be seen in the presence of military amputees because ‘it doesn’t look good for me.’ A person who demonstrated open contempt for a Gold Star family — for all Gold Star families — on TV during the 2016 campaign, and rants that our most precious heroes who gave their lives in America’s defense are ‘losers’ and wouldn’t visit their graves in France.”

But that is not confirmation. John Kelly never said he heard Trump say those words. It was part of a longer rant against Trump and Kelly was just repeating the rumor he had heard. He was not present when Trump supposedly made this statement. He was on the other side of Paris at a memorial in a cemetery.

Every other article refers back to the Atlantic article or the CNN statement as “confirmation” but neither is. It’s a propaganda circle. The Atlantic started the hoax then other publications ran with it and cite back to the Atlantic article as proof. Not in one article anywhere does one named person say they heard Trump say those words, just “anonymous sources” in the Atlantic article.
