Even if President Trump has been fakeing his love for America all these years, at least he loves America enough to fake it.

Not so the flag burning, baby killing, virtue signaling, violent, kneeling, soddomite, shutdown, maskup, expert, socialist, communist, pagan, propagadist, cheating, deep swamp, anoited, Big Loud Mouth, jody jihad. No doubt about their oh so honest hate.

So this story from FOX is being publicized via NPR. Meanwhile, Griffin's husband Myre is with NPR and the Middle East Institute, a State Department think tank funded mainly by oil and military contractors, the Saudis, and the United Arab Emirates.

Lest I neglect to mention, Griffin herself used to be with NPR before joining FOX, as well as AP.

About Mary Louise Kelly, the NPR reporter assisting Griffin on this: The letter served as the latest episode in a dispute stemming from an interview Pompeo conducted with a different reporter for the outlet last week. Following that interview, which touched on issues at the center of the ongoing Senate impeachment trial, NPR reporter Mary Louise Kelly said that Pompeo lashed out at her, using expletives and quizzing her on whether she could spot Ukraine on a map. Pompeo on Saturday accused Kelly of lying about the terms for the interview and alleged that she had disclosed aspects of their discussion that were meant to be off the record.: NPR sends letter to State Dept. demanding answers for reporter's removal from trip

I vividly recall Griffin raging against POTUS from her Fox News Pentagon perch during the travel ban kerfuffle and also Mattis dust ups. Just dripping with hate. I don’t watch Fox anymore so I don’t know what she is up to these days.

I think Trump was saying what you said, but either less clearly or it’s been distorted by the unnamed people who “quoted” him

If he said the dead of World War I were treated like suckers I wouldn’t disagree. Most people can’t explain anything about that war, who was allied with who, and why we “needed” to be involved, and what good was accomplished by the peace treaty ( more bad than good, arguably).

I’d say the 4000 American dead in the Iraq war were treated like suckers by the arrogant idiot neocons who launched that stupid and disastrous war. I’m sure Trump believes that. It’s a big reason he’s hated by the swamp and the media

Those are great comments by Mollie Hemingway. She’s right - these smear stories are put out there instead of an open debate on Trumps policies to get us out of Middle East wars

I blame trump in part for this absence of debate. He doesn’t raise the issue much, and doesn’t seize the advantage given him by this Atlantic controversy to make it clear what’s going on: “This is a ploy to stop me from exiting Afghanistan! “. He should say that loudly and frequently. Because his position is popular, the American people want out. But instead he gets caught up arguing the details of the article

Jennifer Griffin’s ‘unnamed sources are either CIA Deep State’ or ‘Rabid War Hawks’ .

Thanks to Bolton for penning an ‘egotistical ode to his own greatness’ which fortunately included notes on these pertinent events, heck, in all likelihood without them Jennifer’s lies might have gone unchallenged.

However, in this excerpt from Bolton's book “The Room Where It Happened” we get an excellent sample of Bolton’s copious note taking: .
“On Saturday, I went to the US Ambassador's residence, where Trump was staying, to brief him before his bilateral with [French President Emmanuel] Macron. The weather was bad, and [then White House Chief of Staff John] Kelly and I spoke about whether to travel as planned to the Château-Theirry Belleau Wood monuments and nearby American Cemeteries where many US World War I dead were buried,” Bolton wrote. “Marine One’s crew was saying that bad visibility could make it imprudent to chopper to the cemetery. The ceiling was not too low for Marines to fly in combat, but flying POTUS was obviously something very different.”

Bolton later wrote, “It was a straightforward decision to cancel the visit but very hard for a Marine like Kelly to recommend, having originally been the one to suggest Belleau Wood (an iconic battle in Marine Corps history). Trump agreed, and it was decided that others would drive to the cemetery instead.”

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump

All refuted by many witnesses. Jennifer Griffin should be fired for this kind of reporting. Never even called us for comment.

On October 2, 1963, as we have previously seen, President Kennedy made clear his determination to implement those plans—to withdraw 1,000 troops by the end of 1963, and to get almost all the rest out by the end of 1965.

Fake News.

Deep State hit job.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

fox & friends this morning looks like jedidiah bila has gone over to the darkside.

her position on the Atlantic hit piece is that anonymous sources are OK.

anonymous sources give the individual the opportunity to decide what is truth.

pete (himself a vet) has been confirming all the respect & support that trump has given the active military, LEO, gold star parents, vets, but it just doesn’t get through to her.

using her logic: wonder how she would feel if an anonymous source reported that she had been having an affair with former fox opinionator, shemp smith????

would that anonymous reporting still be OK?

Per @JenGriffinFNC, this is all acccording to a former senior Trump administration official who was in France travelling with the President in Nov 2018.— Jacqui Heinrich (@JacquiHeinrich) September 4, 2020



we could probably find out who the source is...

Yes she wears her hair like that because she did have cancer and when her hair started growing back she just kept it short all the time.
