OH NO!!! The Washington Post Created FAKE News!?!?!?

[Robbie]

LOL!

So all of you who have breathlessly been watching CNN "report" every bit of bullshit that the Washington Post (who have publicly stated they are anti-Trump) writes as "FACT"...

Well, CNN is having to start walking that back now:
Intelligence chiefs: No pressure from Trump administration on Russia probe - CNNPolitics.com

Sorry Rochard, but your "news" sources are all extremely biased and haven't been practicing good journalism at all.

And this is just the start.

Last week I was in shock when Anderson Cooper started a segment by saying that it was only a few days away from James Comey testifying to Congress that Pres. Trump committed "obstruction of justice" and asked him to stop the Flynn investigation.

Let's see what happens tomorrow.

CNN has been "reporting" rumors and innuendo and made-up shit as "fact" for months now.
I guess the rubber is starting to meet the road now and the actual FACTS will be laid out.

Rochard, you better go buy a box of kleenex to catch your tears.
Speaking of tears...are tears the result of a snowflake melting?

[crockett]

Robbie would vote for Hitler if he promised lower taxes..

True fact..

Robbie vilified Obama at every possible turn, he vilified Hillary and made up lies about Benghazi all while telling us over and over he was the "only" non partisan guy on GFY".. Now he ignores everything Trump does and tries to vilify the media because big daddy don tells him too..

Robbie = GFY's biggest hypocrite..

Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if Robbie = JoushaMo

[bronco67]

The article says "they won't say" which is good as saying yes.

I'll show you an example.

Me: Robbie, are you an asshole?

Robbie: I won't say.

Me: Ok, you're an asshole.

[Rochard]

Robbie, you are making things up.

I believe this is about the questioning gong on right now with Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats and National Security Agency Director Adm. Mike Rogers and others. You are saying "No pressure from Trump administration on Russia probe" (direct quote) while the article title is "Intelligence chiefs won't say if Trump asked them to downplay Russia probe". There is a big difference between the two statements. You are saying "no pressure" while this is NOT what they said - AT ALL.

I am much more interested what in what James Comey has to say on Thursday.

However, even if James Comey says there was "no pressure" from the Trump administration to end the Russian investigation it's pretty much pointless. The question being ask isn't if Trump had applied pressure to stop this investigation, but instead if there was an obstruction of justice. The best part is this doesn't even address the original investigation, which is still ongoing - Did the Trump administration work directly with the Russian government on winning the election. Now we are finding out the Trump administration offered to remove sanctions for no reason at all.

In the mean time, we are now five months into the Trump administration and they have accomplished NOTHING. The ONLY thing they have accomplished is putting someone on the Supreme Court, which was a year over due, and they had to change the rules in order to do it. Thousands of important government positions remain unfilled, his approval rating is the lowest ever, and now his family is being accused of stealing charity money from cancer kids.... But somehow he still has time to play golf.

This is ridiculous. This is, by far, the worst president we've had in our lifetime.

It's always the same with Robbie. He makes up bullshit lies over and over despite what the reality is. He then attempts to nit pick at little things unrelated to the topic as some lame attempt to prove he's right.

This is why I now troll him endlessly.. He talked so much shit now he gets shit on.

Honestly, the more I think about it, the more sense it makes that Robbie = JoushaMo, with all the "old" fake nicks.

A sensible person speaks TRUTH, and Crockett brings up Hitler.

Hey Crockett- the Amazon Post is run by the CIA / Obama's deep state.

I just linked you to the brand new CNN story that refutes what they themselves have been reporting non-stop and crediting it to the Washington Post without doing ANY due diligence to confirm the story.

Sorry Rochard...but everything you THINK you know has been made-up bullshit by The Washington Post.

Freakin' Carl Bernstein has been on CNN for months bragging about how the Washington Post has put him in charge of over 20 "reporters" whose ONLY goal was to cost Trump the election and now to "uncover" "bad" things about him to destroy his Presidency.

And story after story has been proven to be false.

First day of his Presidency they "reported" that he had removed the bust of MLK from the Oval Office.
CNN, MSNBC, and the rest of the MSM all reported that as "fact".
It was quickly debunked the same day as a lie.

And that was just the start of things.

What happened today on Capital Hill was that a "major news story" from the Washington Post that has been reported as "fact" by CNN was proven to be yet ANOTHER made-up fake news story.

I told you months ago that you need to open your mind and let go of your irrational "hate Trump" emotions. You didn't listen and you keep making pronouncements that turn out to be false because you simply won't accept that CNN is totally 100% anti-Trump biased and will "report" ANYTHING that sounds bad...no matter if it's fake or not.

The article says "Intelligence chiefs won't say if Trump asked them to downplay Russia probe". I already mentioned this. You lied about them saying there was "no pressure". They did not say that.

So the Washington Post says there was pressure and the CNN report says "they refused to answer if there was pressure". You are trying to play one report off of the other, claiming they say different things. They do not. One says "there was pressure to end the investigation" and the other says "they refused to answer questions on if there was pressure to end the investigation".

You can't seem to see the difference. CNN is NOT saying there was "no pressure to end the investigation". This is what you are implying. Instead, CNN is saying they refused to answer questions on if there was pressure in open testimony.

I don't know who Carl Bernstein is and do not care. However, it comes as no surprise that a major newspaper such as the Washington Post would assign twenty reporters to find out the truth about President Trump. Even more so after the Washington Posts role in Watergate.

If a major newspaper can find criminal acts that leads to the impeachment of a US President, isn't that their responsibility? Isn't this exactly what investigative reporting supposed to be?

Again, you are trying to spin the CNN story as debunking the Washington Post story. It does not.

I have opened up my mine, and so far to date everything I thought Trump would be as president has been 100% correct. He is horrible, has no political or government or military experience, and has no clue of what he is going. None what so ever.

I do not believe CNN is "anti Trump". I believe CNN is reporting the news. CNN is not my only source of news; I do not rely on one source of news but instead multiple feeds for news (which includes Fox News). ALL of the news agencies are telling me the same exact thing - which even includes Fox News (Neil Cavuto) which slammed Trump last night. All of the news is telling me the same exact thing:

- Nothing is being accomplished
- Walking away from the Paris agreement was bad
- No word on the budget yet
- The healthcare bill seems hopeless
- Approval rating is in the crapper
- We have five investigations looking to Trump working with the Russians, stealing the election, and obstruction of justice.

We are five months in and Trump has accomplished NOTHING.

"In the three-plus years that I have been director of the national security agency, I have never been directed to do anything I believe to be illegal, immoral, unethical or inappropriate and to the best of my recollection during that same period of service I do not recall ever feeling pressured to do so," NSA Director Mike Rogers told the Senate Intelligence Committee.

and

Dan Coats, director of national intelligence, said the same: "I have never felt pressured to interfere or intervene in shaping intelligence in any way."

And this is great. But this is not what the CNN article says.

It's also very irrelevant. The question isn't if Trump pressured the DNI. The question is "Did Trump pressure the head of the FBI". To the best of my recollection, no one has ever accused Trump of applying pressure to the DNI or the intelligence community. This is really an FBI investigation.

Let's see what James Comey has to say.

Watergate was something I read about in history books. I've also read a book about Watergate, last year or the year before last, but it focused much more on what happened and a lot less on reporters involved.

If you notice it's always " I just happened to be watching CNN" or "Fox" or "ect..ect".. I think he's one of these guys that has News on 24/7 like its some form of entertainment show. If it's not news on TV it's radio talking heads..

His brain has been warped from this constant banter of hearing what he wants to hear beat into his head.. This is a common problem with the right they watch news and listen to talking heads 24/7 like it's entertainment TV.

[robwod]

Of course I didn't. I know who Woodward and Bernstein are. I don't live in a cave. And American Politics are ingrained into every aspect of Canadian media. And we also learned it in our history courses in junior high, back in the 70's.

If you had to Google your own history, just take a shortcut and watch "All the President's Men" for a refresher.

[Bladewire]

Robbie's aggressiveness is sexy but it's misplaced when directed at defending a president that paid $25 million 2 months ago to settle a federal class action consumer fraud case that he delayed for 10 years, total slime ball. 2 points for Robbie's dedication 👍☺️

Rochard is a good example of a guy who refuses to believe reality because he jumped feet first into politics back when Trump first announced he was running and made all kinds of "predictions".

Remember when Rochard had a Trump avatar and sig because he THOUGHT it was a joke.

Now he is simply in complete denial mode.

I show him a link to CNN backpedaling...he refuses to believe it.
There is video everywhere of the hearing today. He refuses to watch it.
He didn't know who Bernstein is? Jesus Christ. I thought everybody knew who Bernstein and Woodward are...or at least saw the movie "All The President's Men" with Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman. lol

That's such a huge part of American culture that I can't even fathom that Rochard is ignorant of it.

But this what the MSM has always used to their advantage. Low-information people who simply believe what they are told.

Times have changed now. People can actually look up video footage of leaders LYING to them. And they can go to YouTube and watch CNN saying things that later turn out to be 100% FALSE.

The people now have more access to information and can easily see through fake news. And that's for either "side". Fox News gets caught all the time too.

But Rochard? Nope. He "believes".

Love ya Rochard, but you're just dead ass wrong on this. Trump is not a Russian spy. Okay? The business community is excited and happy that we have a pro-business President.
The economy is starting to roar.

And it would all be happening even faster if anti-Trump people in the establishment of the RNC and DNC along with their fake news media cronies would stop trying to stall Trump's pro-growth agenda.

TRUMP IS A FUCKING DISASTER

he hasn't even nominated 80% of his cabinet of really important positions..he sucks and if you voted for him your a moron and should stop voting

this fake news stuff.. please.... give me a break.. sometimes the story is wrong... unlike Fox that is 24hr bullshit

[AndyA]

THERE IS NO FAKE NEWS ON CNN AND MSNBC AND EVEN FOX....
these are opinion shows...

if you watch hannity and you think thats news then your stupid... but NBC, ABC, CBS worldnews just puts the facts out there... in a race to be first sometimes they get bad intel but there is no conspiracy

If you support Trump I have zero respect from you and I consider you to stupid to vote again

[AndyA]

if you can fall for Trump then you can fall for Hitler

your just too stupid.. because if you can't see thru a con man like Trump... you could possibly vote in the devil

You're too caught up in worrying about "republicans"...it's ALL of them brother.

And my point about Anderson and Wolf Blitzer and the rest at CNN is that until THIS election they actually had news shows.
I always thought Wolf Blitzer was a great reporter. Anderson Cooper as well.

But now? You're right...they are opinion shows. And of course Rachel Maddow is too.

BUT...if you ask Hannity he will SAY he's an opinion talk show. He's said it many times on the air.

If you ask Anderson Cooper at CNN or Rachel Maddow at MSNBC they will swear up and down that they are NEWS reporters.

And I don't want to see the "world burn". I've watched that happen over the last 16 years with Bush setting it on fire and then Obama having maybe the worst foreign policy I've ever seen (he basically threw gasoline on the Middle East in my opinion).

What I want is for Trump to implement his economic business-friendly policys. I want to see the tens of millions who are on foodstamps and welfare to be able to get good jobs and live with dignity.

That's what I voted for. And it's happening right now.
Over 3 TRILLION dollars in new wealth in the stock market since the day Trump was elected. That equates to a lot of retirement incomes going UP.

New jobs being brought into the U.S. and old ones coming back.
Meanwhile CNN will keep bringing on "experts" and Democrat Senators to tell us that the U.S. can NEVER have good jobs again.
How did all those "experts" do for us over the last couple of decades?

How did ANY of the people running the country do for us over the last couple of decades?
20 TRILLION in debt. War after war. Terrorism exploding around the world. Our govt. spying on us. Being searched in airports like criminals. The Patriot Act...the list goes on.

I voted for change.

Not so much. I tend to get most my news online. I only tend to watch the news on TV when there is something big happening, like a terrorist attack or plane crash, etc.

I will turn on the news if I am doing something that will only give me a few minutes in front of the TV, such as getting dressed in the morning or... This morning I had to put new shoe laces in my shoes so I flipped on CNN.

For the most part I get my news on line.

I like to watch the news as I eat breakfast around 7:30 a.m. Pacific time.
I flip between MSNBC, CNN, and Fox News. They all report differently on the same subject so it kinda balances out by watching a few minutes of each one.
The morning shows on MSNBC are pretty good about reporting a lot of actual news. CNN is John Bergman...and ALL he does is anti-Trump "stories". You wouldn't even have known it was the anniversary of D-Day if you were only watching CNN. lol
Hate Fox N Friends...mostly because of Brian Kilmeade. He was a "Sportscaster" all of his career and now thinks he is an actual news guy. lol

Then I watch the news again around noon when I eat lunch.
And I listen to the news channels on Sirius radio on my ride to and from the gym.

Last thing...I fall asleep with the t.v. on. So around 1 or 2 a.m. I hit the sack and turn on the news for background noise.

I like keeping up with what's going on.

No, not at all.

I was a full on Republican until I saw what happened with Bill Clinton's impeachment. They took a simple investigation into a financial matter and somehow asked him about blow jobs in the oval office. They backed him into an impossible position about a very personal matter. That was not the kind of political party I wanted to be a part of. Since then I've become an independent; I do not vote for someone the party tells me to vote for but instead vote for who I feel is right.

I supported Bush when he was in office. Bush guided us through a difficult time (9/11), although ultimately I was disappointed when we ended up in two never ending wars that we are still in plus destroying our economy (although I honestly do not blame that on Bush).

I surely did not get into politics because of Trump. I sure did make all kinds of predictions, and I wasn't the only one. Every poll in the world thought Clinton was going to win.

At this point it might not even matter if Trump was having secret discussions with the Russians. At this point it's going to be obstruction of justice.

We have a pro business president? LOL. He hasn't done anything. He isn't pro business. He is anti business. He is sued nearly every time he does business because he refuses to pay people.

Trump's approval rating is 34%: Poll: Trump's approval rating dips to 34% - CNNPolitics.com

LOL. The economy is starting to sore? Yes, Trump took office, has accomplished nothing, and magically the economy is much better. Let's see if Trump stays in office, and if he does where we stand in two years.

Rochard you still believing those fake polls? LOL!

As far as business...you don't know what's happening because CNN isn't reporting on it. Open your eyes.

Obstruction of justice? Dream on Aerosmith.
There was NO crime. There can't be any "obstruction" of justice if there is nothing to obstruct.

Trump did ask Comey to lay off Flynn. He'd already fired Flynn and it was over.
Trump isn't some Washington D.C. lifetime bureaucrat for sure. He is from a world where if somebody works FOR you (like the FBI director), you can feel free to have a conversation with them.

Comey himself says in his written testimony that he didn't feel any pressure or that Trump did anything wrong. He said he felt "uncomfortable" being in a situation with Trump alone in a room discussing things.

Doesn't that make you scratch your head? That Washington D.C. has become a place where the head of the FBI can't feel "comfortable" speaking to the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA?

These are the kind of things we should all be asking ourselves. Since when is it "bad" for people to actually talk to the President.

D.C. is a fucked up town and a fucked up culture.
No wonder it's such a swamp and is so inefficient.

Trump is a businessman. He's used to just getting shit done.
Not tiptoeing around in snowflake-ville like these lifetime/career bureaucrats do in Washington D.C.

Anyway, Rochard...just mark this thread down. It's going to be yet ANOTHER prediction of yours that will be wrong.
You're batting 1000 on being consistently wrong.
Obstruction of justice? LOL!
You are watching too much CNN and the rantings of their "legal analyst" Jeffrey Toobin (big Hillary supporter).

Hmmm should we trust the legal opinon of you, Bladewire, Crockett, Andy or should we trust the legal judgement of the Constitutional law professor at Harvard, Alan Dershowitz? And his command of the constitution makes it extremely clear that Trump can not only flirt on the edges of asking the investigation to stop of Flynn. He could flat out demand it ends immediately. He could 100% legally pardon Flynn today if he wanted too. And he can fire Comey, which he did. Now if you want to ask if its an ethical issue. Sure, I'd be on the same page as you. But legally, he can demand it be stopped. Dershowitz says that he starts destroying evidence, tapes etc, then you got something to work with criminally.

However, I know who I trust to actually know the law.

What? You don't think Rochard knows more than Dershowitz? LOL

(I'm thinking that Rochard doesn't even know who Alan Dershowitz is...heh-heh)

Rochard is a good guy. I've seen a lot of smart good people that I like get so caught up in this hatred of Trump that they can't seem to get over it.

I'm hearing of people on Facebook "un-friending" close friends and even relatives over it.

That's why I am so disgusted with CNN and the Democrat Party. They COULD have helped unite the country after the election.
Instead they are doing exactly what they accused Trump of THINKING of doing when they were assuming he would lose the election.

They are dividing the country and causing hysteria among people.

Trump wasn't even in office a week when they were already calling him "fascist" and "hitler" and other absurdities.

Funny thing is...Trump is still pushing ahead. The economy is blooming, our foreign policy finally has a backbone and respect.
But these people don't know that because they are so caught up in hatred that CNN can just keep reporting nonsense on a daily basis and they WANT to believe it.

It sucks for them.

For those of us who are still retaining our sanity...it's an economic boom. We just had the biggest April and May that we've had since 2007. I didn't think that was possible anymore in porn. But there it is.

And on the mainstream front...some of the people who were in Vegas know the huge deal I have going on. And that deal all came to fruition once Trump was elected and my new mainstream partners told me that NOW they are ready to invest.

Instead of all the whining and crying like snowflakes...they SHOULD be out striking while the iron is hot.
There is money to be made and I feel optimistic for the country for the first time since Bill Clinton was President.
Matter of fact I feel MORE optimistic now.

President Clinton benefitted from an internet bubble as an entire new economy was created online during his Presidency.
He had the good wisdom to leave it alone and not let the govt. ruin it.
And the economy boomed.

When Reagan was in office we had years of 6% GDP growth.
During Obama? Biggest year was 1.6%

Trump's biz friendly policy's are changing things.
He's already removed several of the Obama-era regulations that helped strangle business growth.

And once he can get tax reform and trade deals kicking in....the sky is the limit.

I'm happy and optimistic.

Seems that the so-called "liberals" are bitter, vitriolic, and full of doom and gloom.

Blinkered thinking.

While Reagan was in office, the Third World wasn't taking so many American jobs that it was taking under Obama. And he wasn't forced to deal with the huge bubble economy that had exploded because Clinton and Bush made no effort to slow it down.
