CNN's Liberal Meltdown: Brexit Means ‘Xenophobia,’ ‘White Identity’ Win
newsbuters.org ^ | 6/24/2016 | Scott Whitlock

Liberal CNN anchor Christiane Amanpour suffered an epic meltdown on Thursday night as it became clear that Britain was asserting its national sovereignty and voting to leave the European Union. The sneering Amanpour repeatedly derided it as an example of “xenophobia” and “white identity” politics.

Early in the evening, with the result still in doubt, Amanpour told Anderson Cooper: “A lot of the Leave movements are led by the hard-right, very, very xenophobic, anti-immigrant, very populist, nationalist, white identity politics.” Later, as reality set in, the journalist referenced the current issue of The Economist and raged, “This marks a victory for the kind of economic nationalism, to quote this article here, for the kind of xenophobia, that will imperil the liberal world order that has guaranteed western prosperity and stability since World War two."

What is she talking about, what liberal world order?


Great question. How can we ask her or CNN that question?

CA is the face of what’s wrong with CNN.

Nobody’s listening to your lunacy anymore, Chrissy.

It's not a "phobia", it a legitimate hatred for what the Globalists have planned.

I honestly believe they believe the words of John Lennon's "Imagine" and are trying to make it come true through force.

The Brits had the good sense to tell them to eff off.

She wishes it was illegal for whites to even THINK of not paying all the bills for darker people. People like her reinforce the racial stereotype that non-whites are incapable of feeding, clothing, or educating themselves.

I wish Americans would do the same thing with NAFTA; Mexico is a parasite attached to our rump...

My wife and I were in serious intercessory prayer for the Brexit for weeks. I know many believers around the world were as well...Last night when the polls had closed and Nigel Farage comes out with a “Dewey Defeats Truman” headline( i did not know it was this at the time)...I thought well I guess the Lord has other plans because I think the BREXIT is part of parcel of same thing going on in America and hence the rise of a Donald Trump
The peasants are in full revolt mode against the elitists on the castle in Brussels or on that Hill named Capitol in District of Columbia...and the elitists can’t even buy a clue from VANNA.
It’s been amusing as I have watched the FOX BIZ channel all day...I stopped watching Faux Kelley news long before the Donald dust up...but I digress.
Anyway I like the term that Sundance uses over at Conservative Treehouse..he says all the media and their allies can do is “gaslight” stuff and keep trying to obfuscate what is happening from what is happening...and then he reminds us...there are far more of US than there are THEM...and the Monster Vote voted for BREXIT and in November it will bring Donald Trump the largest win in history...well at least a huuuuuuuuge win...
Go TRUMP!
Make America Great again
and screw the castle on the hill elites!

[ These diversity and open border nazis’s just don’t get it. ]

They are by definition ANTI-Diversity, if no nations have borders, how can separate different cultures develop in the first place????

If you take all the borders down and mix everyone up, eventually what ever is the most infectious or brutal culture will subsume the other cultures, ie. ISLAM. and you will eventually end up with NO DIVERSITY WHATSOEVER....

But like a `Chatty Cathy’ doll, Amanpour will keep pulling the plastic ring on her back and repeating the smears.
Or we can only hope so.

I have the world's worst work hours. Sometimes I am coming home at 4:30 am. Sometimes I am going to work at 4:30. Sometimes both things happen at the same time. Anyway, THIS morning, I was going to work at 4:30 this morning, and I turned on my local NPR station to listen to their rebroadcast of 'The BBC World Service'. I knew that, this particular morning, it was going to be a real hoot. What I heard was oddly similar to what we hear here, but with a British accent.

There was a Conservative minister of Parliament, who, while trying to answer questions from BBC 'journalists' was constantly being interrupted by his interrogators..err interviewers, calmly explained that the voters were concerned that immigrants that were allowed into other countries of the EU, would end up on the public dole, and that ultimately, Britain would end up on the hook, even though they have no say in the situation. No racism, legitimate concerns.

Then were heard from a Labor Party MP. He droned on about how, if Britain wanted to do business with the EU, it would still have to adhere to climate change regulations.

Finally, there was a professor from 'University'. European Studies, I believe. In his best arrogant British accent, he said that 2, or 3, maybe 5% of the voters were not fully in understanding of the implications of the exit vote. In other words, morons made up the difference in the vote. I nearly drove off the road. Morons made up the difference? Welcome to the democracy party, a$$hole. Leftists have made a career living off margins of victory made up of idiots who did not fully understand the ramifications of their feckless votes.

So suppose it was a case of a “white” nation wishing to save its ethnic and cultural identity, to continue to be a Britain that is...British? A desire to continue to exist as a people and a nation? What is wrong about that? Absolutely nothing! The mad push to force overwhelming numbers of Third World immigrants into various European peoples’ homelands is nothing less than an attempt at slow genocide. Call it what it is.

The sad thing about Christiana is that when she first started she was a rather good reporter....It is sad what being in that tiny liberal fishbowl does to people, whether in politics or news.

Tom Shales, of all people, had it right when he called her a globetrotting fancy-pants who couldn’t connect with ordinary people.


I actually like the nickname of “war slut” given to her by some old talking head form the 90s

Good point! I was thinking the same thing this morning at about 3:00 a.m. when I saw the result: “The leeches at the UN must be pulling their hair out!”

Christine Amanpour is of those snotty journalists I detest deeply.

Happy to see she got her well-deserved comeuppance.

Why doesn’t she chide her home country of Afghanistan for not allowing churches and other faiths there?

Amen-pour got out a mouthful in that second paragraph, didn’t she? ROTFLOLOL!

Spoken as a globe trotting true Palestinian propagandist sycophant, Muslim sympathizer, married to a Leftist Jew serving as her DC escort when she’s ever home.

Throw in probably a spy to boot, in my own humble opinion, clinking glasses with the Pentagon girly boys now in charge over there.

This is constant and exhausting. Multiculturalism isn’t worth the arguments. People should stick with their own kind and race for the stars.

Screw you people! I’m sick of your constant whining!
