[Twitter Report] Breitbart Sitting on Anti-Cruz Story till After NH Vote
Breitbart Twitter ^ | 02/04/2016 | Twitter

Posted on 02/04/2016 1:03:54 PM PST by Greetings_Puny_Humans

Two days ago Breitbart's Milo Yiannopoulos and Allum Bokhari (the latter's twitter page linked up above) began teasing an "Explosive" Cruz scandal that was supposed to post imminently on Breitbart.com.

According to Allum Bokhari, it would reveal the 'true face' of Ted Cruz and would be "much worse" than the Ben Carson-fraud fiasco currently ongoing. When asked if it would destroy the Cruz campaign, Allum replied he "couldn't say for sure." When asked about the initial delay, he replied that Breitbart is being very careful with the information due to its seriousness, but that the "wait was worth it."

At first I thought maybe Allum and Milo were simply trolling their readership due to the silence for more than 24 hours, but it appears the article really is coming and is indeed quite serious. According to Allum the article was held up in editorial, and now updates his readers with the following:

Allum Bokhari ‏@LibertarianBlue 2h Been told it's a few more days before we can drop the new Cruz goss. Nothing I can do :(

@6ae025af2132401 can't come out for a few days. My hands are tied, and not in the fun way. :(

Allum has been posting 1 or 2 stories a day with no such similar delays, so it appears Breitbart is holding onto the story till after the vote in New Hampshire, probably to avoid accusations of trying to influence the election.

Other than the tweets about it being an "explosive" scandal, Milo and Allum have been entirely mum on the contents of the story, and haven't responded to multiple questions regarding whether Breitbart editors like Ben Shapiro may be trying to suppress it. Nevertheless, there is no indication the story will not be breaking at this point.

Rubio was spreading the same Carson rumor and pushing it hard.

They might be hoping they get scooped.

He wasn’t for abandoning ALL conservative principles to do it, though.

Yep, he needs to be encouraged to speak his mind at all times.

Well, by all means tell that to all the other complete fools who bothered to read and react to this ploy by Cruz on the thread with over 1200 FReeper comments. The majority thought it was ugly and counterproductive.

They have a ton of dirt on Trump - if he wins the primary, they will destroy him

I remember when Pat Buchanan was running for president way back, a reporter on a radio talk show said that he really liked Pat, "but we are going to have to take him down."

Is Trump ready for the media blitz on his character?

Let’s try and talk about the issues.

Okay, Cruz is also a liar when it comes to his history on legalization, as can be seen here:

Already been on Daily Mail, a nothing burger.

It's a full-on expose with a determined point of view like 60 Minutes, not an article with a few images.

This little guy girl dug up significant dirt on Cruz that the MSM, establishment and liberals haven’t been able to dig up all these years?

Here we go again...

Do you REALLY want me to dig up all the dirt I can find on Donnie that there is out there on his complete transformation from a pro-abortion, pro-Obamacare liberal with New York Values, who gave thousands of dollars to the Democrats, only to become a “Conservative” Republican virtually overnight?

His three marraiges?

His infidelities?

His fraudulent business practices?

His slumlord practices?

His four bankruptcies?

His unending completely sexist statements about women?

Anything more you want me to talk about him?

Is that really what you want this debate to resort to?

REALLY?

If this is how you want to fight, you better go argue from the comforts of the Democrat party.

But there’s a lot to find about Donnie, and you don’t have to dig to find it.

Not that I’m really interested in this kind of childish, idiotic debate.

Actually CNN also broadcast the story live.

But stick your head back in the sand screaming TED IS EVIL TED IS EVIL. and when you pop your head back up you’ll have president Hilary or rubio. Enjoy.

Digging up "dirt" and giving honest criticism are two very different things for your average Cruzbot, most of whom have become insufferable in their blind devotion to Cruz and willingness to believe every evil thing they can about his opponents.
