Things the Media Ignored in the Mueller Report
Am Thinker ^ | April 21, 2019 | Clarice Feldman

Despite the oceans of pixels, buckets of ink, and hours of TV and radio coverage respecting the Mueller report, there are two important things underplayed or ignored: the ubiquitous nature of Russian interference from 2014 on, which Obama ignored, and the real target of the witch hunt -- General Michael Flynn (and why). To get there, let’s first quickly review the pre- and post- report major media coverage.

The Ridiculous Press Propagation of the Hoax and Response to the Report

There are countless examples of the media beclowning itself when the left’s dream of a slam-dunk against the president failed. It was like the election night follies all over again.

To quote the satirical Babylon Bee: “CNN: ‘God Allowed the Mueller Report to Test Our Unshakable Faith in Collusion’”

Here are some examples.

CNN’s Jake Tapper indicated it was suspicious that Attorney General William Barr repeated several times that the report found no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia...

At the Barr presser on the report, CBS’s Paula Reid suggested that the attorney general’s summary was too generous to the president. In particular, she questioned his characterization of the Mueller investigation as “unprecedented”. Barr who is clearly no lightweight, responded,

“Is there a precedent for it?”

“Well, no,” conceded Reid.

“Okay so unprecedented is an accurate description, isn’t it.”

”Yeah,” admitted Reid.

It’s hard to pick a favorite, but disgraced NBC anchor Brian Williams is certainly a top contender, comparing Barr to Iraq’s former propaganda minister Baghdad Bob. (You might recall Williams was nabbed making up stories about Hurricane Katrina.)...

Terry Moran of ABC tweeted:

“John Brennan has a lot to answer for -- going before the American public for months, cloaked with CIA authority and openly suggesting he’s got secret info, and repeatedly turning in performances like this.”

Silence on things contrary to their agenda. Amplification of their agenda. it’s how propagandists roll...over all of us.

Excellent write-up, and I think she hit the nail on the head regarding Flynn.

Another excellent piece by Clarice, she’s dead on the mark in saying the truth is coming.

Flynn was the only head of a major U.S. intelligence agency who knew just how badly the CIA had bungled, who had done what to whom, and where the bodies were buried. He was the broom with which Trump proposed to clean house. I am convinced that the Deep State put the finger on Flynn and tried to frame Trump, in the belief that the best defense is a good offense....

This^^^

<>Flynn was bankrupted by Mueller at the urging of the intelligence community, led by Brennan and Clapper.<>

Dear PDJT,
Please pardon General Flynn. If time allows, then publicly dismember Brennan and Clapper.
Thank you

And the reason Barr did it is because Jake Tapper is an example of the rabid left-wing media...he knew they wanted to keep the meme going and made sure to let them know they've been barking up the wrong tree and pissing on their own legs.

Thought Brian Williams was caught lying about Iraq. About his being in a helicopter that took fire when he actually flew in a trailing chopper.
