CNN was the kingmaker in 2016; why shouldn’t it be now? In a shift for his campaign, Ron DeSantis plans to sit down with CNN’s Jake Tapper to discuss the Florida governor’s vision for America. It will no doubt make CNN some cash that the network apparently needs. Like a quickly arranged fight between two spendthrift boxers, both the network and the campaign have a sense of urgency. While I remain unconcerned about DeSantis’s prospects, the early success of DeSantis’s campaign in national and state-level polling has slipped ever since Trump regained the news cycle, in the wake of investigations...

Former Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ), a candidate for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that former President Donald Trump was a “liar and a coward” for claiming he is being indicted for other Republicans.At a campaign rally, Trump said, “Every time the radical left Democrats, Marxists, Communists and Fascists indict me, I consider it to be a great badge of honor and courage. I’m doing it for you. I’m being indicted for you. Better me than you, right?”Anchor Jake Tapper said, “Great badge of honor and courage. Better me than you. What do...

VIDEOThere are ALREADY Biden Bribe tapes out there so Chris Wray doesn't need to keep the additional Biden Bribe tapes under wraps. The whole purpose of the FBI keeping the Biden bribe tapes under lock and key is to be able to control Joe Biden. However, that advantage has been lost due to the other damning Biden bribe tapes already available to the public.

CNN anchor Jake Tapper refused to air a Donald Trump speech, saying the former president's remarks are "potentially dangerous" just one month after CNN aired a town hall with Trump that garnered massive viewership. Tapper stated Tuesday that CNN would not air the speech in its entirety because the former president "says a lot of things that are not true and sometimes potentially dangerous," Mediaite reported. The speech began with Trump criticizing charges against him for mishandling classified documents, leading Tapper to call Trump's remarks "untrue and unfounded" and accuse him of trying to "undo an election." After being arraigned...

VIDEOShame Pain. It is the pain that breaks out on a face trying to suppress the SHAME someone feels. Such was the case when Jake Tapper heard former New York Congressman Lee Zeldin explain that over the top biased prosecutor Alvin Bragg is NOT the person to bring about the indictment of President Donald Trump over laughably flimsy charges. Basically massaging an expired misdemeanor into a felony. It is the pain of knowing that the FIRST time a former President (and current candidate) has been indicted, it was at the hands of a prosecutor who has a reputation of avoiding...

Representative Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) said Wednesday on CNN’s “The Lead” that he believed former President Donald Trump was “guilty of a crime” for his actions surrounding the January 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol. Anchor Jake Tapper asked, “After all you have learned as a member of the committee, on a personal basis. So not speaking for the committee, but just you personally, do you think that Donald Trump has committed a prosecutable crime related to January 6th and the qnd the attempt to overturn the election?”

CNN’s Jake Tapper will be exiting prime time after the midterms due to poor ratings and will return to his original afternoon slot. CNN president Chris Licht pushed Tapper into a prime-time slot at 9:00 p.m. this past September following the departures of disgraced former president Jeff Zucker and anchor Chris Cuomo late last year. He will soon resume his original 4:00 p.m. slot with his show The Lead after the midterm elections. The Hill noted: At the time, the network said the switch in Tapper’s time slot, and several others CNN made to its lineup for the midterm elections,...

The cable news network says Tapper will move back to his afternoon slot, hosting The Lead, while his nighttime replacement will be announced in the coming days.

CNN anchor Jake Tapper said some elected officials and TV anchors are to blame for creating a “permission structure” that has opened the door for political violence, after news broke that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) husband was attacked in the couple’s home on Friday. “There are people in mainstream accepted society – elected officials, TV anchors, others – who have been creating a permission structure that is helping to open the door to this violence,” Tapper said on Friday night.

CNN anchor Jake Tapper took a beating on social media for suggesting that no “national conversation” happened over the potential damage that school closures could have on children. During a segment of CNN Tonight on Friday, Tapper confessed to feeling “surprised” by the fact nobody discussed the lockdown damage on children, even though conservatives were rightly doing that in the early days of the pandemic. Tapper also further called for a “bipartisan movement” to address the educational crisis.

After a bruising primary season, the Republican ticket in New Hampshire looks like an arranged marriage between a popular, moderate, governor in Chris Sununu running for reelection and a more right-wing, self-proclaimed outsider vying for US Senate. After calling each other names, the two men are now united for what they see as the greater good – a Republican Senate and a fourth term for Sununu. And it’s not just in New Hampshire. This newfound unity is more common as the general election approaches and the stakes – GOP victory or defeat – become more real. In Arizona, for instance,...

Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake is set to appear on CNN's State of the Union with Dana Bash and Jake Tapper on Sunday after weeks of establishment media ignoring Lake and her rise in the polls. Lake, a Trump-endorsed candidate and former local news correspondant, had critisized establisment media in the past for their bias in reporting on her candidacy; they even went so far as to attack her daughter in June.

“It’s going to bring a billion, a trillion, 750 million dollars, billion dollars, off the sidelines” In a car crash interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper Tuesday, Biden stammered and stuttered, often speaking absolute gibberish, and dropped the cheat cards his handlers had given him while declaring that there is no recession in the U.S. It all started to go wrong for Biden after Tapper had asked about Hunter Biden facing criminal prosecution. Then this happened: VIDEO AT LINK................ How can Biden read those cards when he can’t even hold them? And he keeps calling it ‘the Inflation Act’. Biden then...

Joe Biden sat down for a pre-recorded interview with CNN hack reporter Jake Tapper on Tuesday. Not even Jake the Snake could save Old Joe from his wandering mind. At one point Joe Biden started talking about green energy and climate change. Energy prices has soared under Joe Biden and Democrats. They believe it is a good thing to punish the working class. Joe Biden started blubbering about billions, millions, trillions on some spending fiasco. Of course, Jake Tapper did not follow up on anything no matter how stupid or dishonest it was. WATCH:

President Joe Biden said Tuesday on “CNN Tonight” that he will decide if he is going to run for president in 2024 after the midterms and if he does, he said he believes he will beat former President Donald Trump again. Biden said, “I just think there’s, you know, it’s a matter of has anybody done more in the first two years of their administration? For a guy, they’ve been saying this about my age since I began to run. So, you know, you can come work out with me in the morning.” […] Biden said, “Well, look, I’m not...

CNN’s in-house Biden spokesman Jake Tapper had a dyspeptic episode over pesky GOPers who claim Big Tech “rigged” the 2020 election by censoring one of the most important stories in recent years. The CNN anchor piggybacked on a so-called Washington Post “exclusive” in a ridiculous attempt to cast Big Tech platforms like Twitter that censored the Hunter Biden laptop scandal as having a negligible effect on the 2020 election. As if questioning is somehow a bad thing, he whined on the Oct. 7 edition of CNN’s The Lead how GOP “questioners” ripping Big Tech for censoring the New York Post...

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) on Monday ripped former President Trump’s recent remarks saying that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has a “death wish,” calling the comments against McConnell and his wife, former Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, an “absolutely despicable, racist attack.” Cheney, the vice chairwoman of the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, warned that Trump’s remarks could incite further violence. “When you see former President Trump just in the last 24 hours suggesting in a pretty thinly veiled way, using words that that could well cause violence against the Republican leader of...
