On Sunday morning’s Meet the Press, NBC News hack Kristen Welker pressed newly sworn-in Attorney General Todd Blanche to “pledge that the Justice Department will always act independently of the White House.” The fake “journalist” performed this bit of moralizing theater with her “very serious” face, as if to suggest that the nation’s survival depended upon Blanche’s answer. Blanche calmly swatted Welker’s solicitation away, while pointing out that no competent, law-abiding attorney general should ever make such an absurd pledge.
It was another ridiculous moment in “journalism” and reminded viewers that the biggest names in corporate news are stupid, partisan, and duplicitous. Why would Welker believe that she is entitled to demand some kind of public oath from the attorney general? Why does she think the United States should have an “independent” Department of Justice? Does she not understand that the DOJ is part of the Executive Branch? Is she not aware that AG Blanche serves in President Trump’s cabinet? Does she not realize that Trump is his boss? Does she not grasp that AG Blanche is now seventh in the presidential line of succession?
… “Pretty amazing confession here by the AG,” moron Chuck Todd whimpered before further whining, “Still can’t believe he was confirmed. I guess he gets points for being honest?” ...

What’s particularly galling about Welker and Todd’s constitutional illiteracy is each buffoon’s insistence that independent bureaucrats somehow safeguard “democracy.” Unelected government employees do not represent the American people. To accord them more power than elected officials is to weaken the public’s control over their own government. Treating the Faucis, Holders, Garlands, Brennans, and Comeys as if they possess distinct Executive power derived separately from that of the president’s is not conducive to a constitutional republic. It is the gateway drug to future dictatorship.

All those talking heads are fed their questions by their network producers. Take away their earphones, and all they could do is stutter.
Is it ‘FAKE NEWS” or Fake ‘JOURNALISTS’, or “FAKE NEWS JOURNALISTS’? I’m so confused!......?
I prefer Urinalists.
The media have been on the side of the progressives since before the 1920s, this is nothing new.
Kristin Welker. LOL!
