[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.

Cruz is a bushie..look at all the people advising him..its a well kept secret..not too mention his wife’s connections to the Bushes.

Cruz-Goldman Sachs, CIA, James Woolsey form Director under CIA of the Clintons

Ted has everybody fooled..look into yourselves!

I'm looking for a Cruz quote where Cruz says that he is lily white.

In between the public prayers, the calls for electrifying the body of Christ, the tales of sacrifice and sacred honor, and stating that he is the one true conservative, I can't find where Cruz has claimed to be lily white either.

So one who prays (in public) is one who claims to be lily white?

And one who claims to be the most conservative in the race is one who claims to be lily white?

Oh sure.

Milo tries to up his Twitter presence all the time with sensational stuff.

His last big scandal was that Twitter took away his distinctive celebrity mark. The next was to have an insult war with Shapiro.

Unlikely that he would have anything not widely available.

Isn't NH a winner-take-all state?

The GOP changed the rules after the TEA Party scared them in 2012. There are NO "WTA" states before March 16, the halfway point in the process.

Really no different than Glenn Beck... That being said I am interested in what the big scandal will be.

Thanks. I was trying to think of a similar example, and Glenn Beck's teases are it.

Also remember there was supposed to be a bomb shell when Cruz met privately with NYC donors?

LOL.

By the Breitbart writers in question, don't be obtuse

Breitbart died of a heart attack.

His over-blown blog is now a pop-up hell.

Anything reported via a "Tweet" is garbage.

Homeless dirtbags can "write" a Tweet.

Next.

You can't be so stupid that you don't see the contradiction between a man who publicly prays and is deceptive and dishonorable. You're trolling me.

Its baloney, a story about some women reporter from twenty years ago that calls Trump ‘Creepy’. Already been on Daily Mail, a nothing burger.

Rand Paul just posted a VIOLATION notice about Cruz and Rubio on Twitter. Wish I knew how to put images here!

It’s hilarious!

That looks like patty cake compared to what this story may be.

Oh, it's going to be no walk in the park that's for "maybe" sure.

Just wait.
