1. and left 80 billion dollars worth of military eqpt, guns, ammo, tanks, helicopters and planes behind for use by the afghans.

 

He described Biden as "a genial, likable person," and noted that some of his policies were popular amongst Americans with even some Republican support, but also claimed that the country was doing "reasonably well" economically, despite record inflation, nationwide supply chain challenges and a labor shortage.

He calls this "reasonably well"??? Now there's a stretch.

 

Well, but lets remember that pundits are paid to spin.

 

No shit. Not even I thought Trump could pit that many antisemitic tropes attacking Jews in one short interview.

Jake Tapper stunned as Trump goes on 'jaw dropping' anti-Semitic rant

David Badash, The New Civil Rights Movement
December 17, 2021



Donald Trump (AFP)
In an interview with an Israeli reporter Donald Trump, the former U.S. president, lamented Jews in America “no longer love Israel,” claimed America’s evangelical Christians “love Israel more,” and declared “Jewish people … run The New York Times.”

Trump made his remarks (audio excerpt below) in an interview with Israeli journalist Barak Ravid, the Daily Mail reports. The clip was aired in the “Unholy: Two Jews on the news” podcast.

CNN’s Jake Tapper commented that the Republican former president’s remarks were “jaw dropping.”

“It used to be that Israel had absolute power over Congress and today I think it’s the exact opposite,” Trump said. “I think Obama and Biden did that.”

“Yet in the election they still get a lot of votes from the Jewish people. Which tells you that … the Jewish people in the United States either don’t like Israel or don’t care about Israel.”

“I mean you look at The New York Times, The New York Times hates Israel. Hates them. And they’re Jewish people that run The New York Times,” he added.

“Earlier this year,” Daily Mail notes, “Trump said that US Jews ‘don’t love Israel enough’ because he only got 25% of the Jewish vote in the 2020 election.”

“You know what really surprised me?” Trump said in June in an interview with the ultra-Orthodox magazine Ami, Daily Mail reports. “‘I did the Heights, I did Jerusalem and I did Iran — the Iran deal was a disaster, right?’ he said referring to his decisions to recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, move the US embassy there and pull the US out of the Iran nuclear deal.”

“And I also did many other things. Jewish people who live in the United States don’t love Israel enough. Does that make sense to you?”

Acosta Goes SCORCHED EARTH on Fox News’ Ingraham, Hannity Over Jan. 6 Texts: ‘Guys, You’ve Been Busted on Your Bullsh*t’

CNN’s Jim Acosta lambasted Fox News hosts on Saturday over text messages they sent former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows on Jan. 6 asking former President Donald Trump to address his supporters at the Capitol.

Acosta’s point of contention was not the content of the messages, but how the hosts covered Jan. 6 after they sent the texts, claiming they lied “to their viewers about what happened that day.”

Fox News congressional reporter Chad Pergram reported that all three hosts in question — Laura Ingraham, Sean Hannity, and Brian Kilmeade — stand by the text messages they sent urging de-escalation at the Capitol.

Ingraham has also strongly rebuked media coverage of her text exchange with Meadows, saying “Of course the regime media was trying to twist this message to try and tar me as a liar and hypocrite who privately sounded the alarm on January 6 but [publicly] downplayed it.”

On Tuesday, Ingraham reiterated Pergram’s reporting, saying that “both publicly and privately I said what I believe: that the Jan. 6 breach at the Capitol was a terrible thing. Crimes were committed.” She added, “Some people were unfairly hounded and persecuted, but it was not an insurrection. To say anything different is beyond dishonest and it ignores the facts of that day.”

Hannity also said earlier this week that he told Meadows “the exact same thing I was saying live on the radio at that time and on TV that night on Jan. 6 and well beyond Jan. 6,”

Acosta noted that other messages to Meadows were reviewed by the select House committee investigating Jan. 6, including a text forwarded by Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) that said former Vice President Mike Pence should “call out all electoral votes that he believes are unconstitutional as no electoral votes at all.”

“He seems nervous,” Acosta said of Jordan’s demeanor during a Spectrum News interview over the summer.

“What’s even more disgusting is that Fox News host Laura Ingraham, Sean Hannity, they’ve been caught red-handed acting like North Korean state television, lying to their viewers about what happened that day, covering up the misdeeds of a wannabe dictator, blaming Antifa sympathizers for January 6th, and downplaying the violence in the days that followed,” Acosta continued. “Guys, you’ve been busted on your bullshit, on your betrayal.”

Acosta went on to play clips of the hosts speaking about Jan. 6 after the fact, in which they claimed that the majority of protesters were peaceful.

Acosta did, however, go on to offer a bit of praise to Geraldo Rivera — a vocal critic of the events of Jan. 6 and Tucker Carlson’s “Patriot Purge” special — for confronting Hannity over his texts and “plead[ing] with Hannity to come back to the real world.”

Merry Christmas stumbler

 

Still reeling from accusations against CNN producer John Griffin, it appears that another CNN producer-slime, Rick Saleeby, bites the dust. Supporters of CNN can rant all they want about Veritas, but it appears that the source of this story contacted Veritas only after authorities and CNN slow-footed it. CNN, Liberal's and Progressive's source for trusted news, is increasingly being exposed as an awful organization containing many terrible people.

It will be interesting to see how seriously this is taken by LEOs and whether CNN can survive these repeated accusations.

Name Of Second CNN Producer Involved In Pedophilia Scandal Released
https://milnenews.com/2021/12/17/na...ucer-involved-in-pedophilia-scandal-released/

Project Veritas has released the name of the latest producer at CNN to be exposed in a pedophilia scandal. Rick Saleeby, the staffer in question, is a producer on “The Lead with Jake Tapper.”

The mother of the victims sent a note via Project Veritas: “I wanted to reach out to sincerely thank you again. I am very grateful toward you guys and everything you’ve done for me and my children. Our world has just been completely flipped upside down, but none of that matters. We are all safe. I’m hoping, praying, and pushing for charges to be brought against him, so he can never do this to another child/family again.
-------

According to Project Veritas witness, one text exchange featured the producer telling the source how his fiancé’s daughter was “wearing very closely cut bottoms at the pool,” before graphically describing how he could see the outline of her genitals. Saleeby – according to a witness – solicited sexually explicit photos of the source’s underage daughter.
-------

The source obtained the information for authorities but contacted Project Veritas when she was worried that action might not be taken. The source told the outlet that she “felt disgusted” and felt the need to come forward because “these people with power seem to get away with it.”

 

Wait for it .............

 

Longtime CNN producer John Griffin was 'ashamed' after arrest for child sex trafficking: prosecutor
Griffin has history of offering hush money to witnesses, prosecutor also said



Longtime CNN producer John Griffin attempted to pay off witnesses, offered a woman $30,000 for a "mother daughter weekend with me," and told authorities that he was "ashamed" when he was arrested for allegedly abusing a 9-year-old girl and enticing other minors, U.S. Attorney for the District of Vermont Nikolas Kerest wrote in a motion for detention ahead of Griffin’s arraignment on Wednesday.

The prosecutor laid out the "substantial" evidence against Griffin in the motion, which asks the judge to hold Griffin in jail without bail while his case is pending.


"Griffin has tried to deceive, delete, and spend his way out of being held accountable," the prosecutor wrote. "He is a wealthy man who will be desperate to avoid facing justice."

Griffin's attorney, David Kirby, declined to comment on the court filing.

Last year, Griffin sought out women who identified as sexually submissive and tried to persuade them to allow him to "train" their minor daughters.

He told one parent that he "had trained girls as young as seven years of age," according to the filing.

One woman, who was the mother of a 9-year-old girl, flew from Nevada to Boston to stay at Griffin's Vermont ski house in July 2020, according to authorities.

While the woman and her minor daughter were at the home, Griffin viewed "web-pages featuring pornographic videos about sex with mothers and daughters."


"The evidence against Griffin also includes a video captured by a drone operated by Griffin as it returned to Griffin’s Ludlow ski house shortly after 5am on July 20, 2020, showing the completely naked nine-year-old girl, standing immediately next to Griffin in his underwear," the motion reads.

After the mother and daughter returned to Nevada, one of their relatives exchanged messages with Griffin in which he said he didn't do anything wrong.

"U lmk if ur feeling helpful within the hour or so," the relative said to Griffin, who then sent the relative $4,000, according to the motion.

"This apparent pay-off of a potential witness is not only further evidence of wrong-doing, it is an independent reason for Griffin’s detention," the prosecutor writes.

Separately, after Griffin got into a car accident while allegedly driving drunk in October 2020, he "offered the driver of a vehicle he crashed into ‘cash and a check to not call the police.’"

After Griffin was arrested on Dec. 10, he allegedly told authorities that he was ashamed.


"Without incriminating myself, I just want to let you guys know that I’m ashamed you even know my name at all," Griffin stated, according to the court filing. "In the time I’m with you guys, in the event I do anything inappropriate, I just want you to know that I’d feel the same way you guys would if I were in your situation. Thank you."

Griffin's attorney supplied the U.S. attorney with letters vouching for Griffin from his wife, father and four of his friends in August 2021.

Three of those friends and his wife have since withdrawn those letters, according to the court filing.

"One friend explained that he was 'blatantly lied to' about the nature of the investigation when he agreed to write on Griffin’s behalf," the prosecutor wrote.


In laying out the case for Griffin's detention, the U.S. attorney cited the government's cases against convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, his accused madam Ghislaine Maxwell and convicted sex offender and singer R. Kelly.

Griffin is charged with three counts of using a facility of interstate commerce to attempt to entice minors to engage in unlawful sexual activity. He faces anywhere from 10 years behind bars to life imprisonment if convicted.

He will be arraigned on Wednesday in Burlington, Vermont.

 

'Not everybody in West Virginia has a houseboat': CNN's Acosta on Joe Manchin

December 19, 2021





CNN's Jim Acosta called out Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) after he revealed he wouldn't support President Joe Biden's Build Back Better plan that would give Americans the child tax credit, tech neutral energy tax incentives and control of drug prices, as Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) explained in his letter to his West Virginia colleague.

2:45 PM · Dec 19, 2021


Speaking to CNN political analyst John Avlon, Acosta noted, "I do think that Joe Manchin did mislead a lot of people in his party for many many months," said Acosta. "And yes, he may represent a MAGA state now and so on but not everybody in West Virginia has a houseboat."

"Traditionally one of the things centrists tend to do is they look at what's actually popular as opposed to ideological wishlist items that maybe have a minority of support in America, and they try to bring folks together. And I think the White House has been negotiating in good faith with Manchin," Avlon agreed. "And I think Manchin — you want to take him at his word that he had been working with the president. But he pulled the plug the week before Christmas when so many of these items are not only popular but things that Manchin has supported in the past, things that would benefit his own constituents in West Virginia, things that would help the Democratic Party reach out to working-class voters who have suffered from the economic divide."

LMFAO!!!!!!


Bottoms Up: CNN’s ‘New Day’ Loses to Shows on Cars, Glaciers, and…Moonshine?!
Yes, you read that headline correctly. On Wednesday, CNN’s hideously-rated New Day had its worst viewership of the year as, according to Nielsen Media Research, it fetched only 304,000 total viewers and 63,000 of those via the 25-54 demo. Among the shows that drew more people on Wednesday, they included Discovery’s Moonshiners, ESPN’s Get Up, History’s Counting Cars, and Game Show Network’s People Puzzler and Family Feud.

In the head-to-head ratings, New Day lost to the 799,000 total views and 87,000 audience demo for MSNBC’s Morning Joe and was blown out of the water by 1.319 million total viewers and 264,000 demo crowd for the Fox News Channel’s Fox & Friends. Airing at the same time, ESPN’s Get Up with Mike Greenberg eked out a win with 323,000 total viewers and 140,000 in the demo.

Moving on to other parts of the day, two episodes of Moonshiners had more than doubled New Day as they pulled in 747,00 total viewers (and 266,000 in the demo) and the other received 654,000 total viewers and 217,000 in the demo. A third episode wasn’t able to double the CNN snoozer in total viewers, but it still had a healthy win at 455,000 total viewers while still tripling them in the demo (190,000).

Pawn Stars spinoff Counting Cars still cleaned up as its primetime episode had 552,000 total viewers and 171,000 in the demo. No word on what Pawn Stars guys would be able to get if someone tried to sell New Day in the Las Vegas pawn shop.

 

Jim Jordan has repeatedly 'tripped over' his story about communications with Trump: CNN's Bolduan

Jim Jordan (R-OH)/MSNBC screen shot

On Wednesday's edition of CNN's "OutFront," anchor Kate Bolduan and former Nixon White House Counsel John Dean discussed the new push by the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 Capitol attack to get information from Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH).

"One key question with Jordan, really ever since January 6th, has been what were his communications with Donald Trump on January 6th?" said Bolduan. "Because the question has become all the more interesting as Jordan himself has tripped over answering it multiple times. Let me play this for you."

"I have talked to the president so many — I can't remember all the days I have talked to him but I certainly talked to the president. I spoke with him that day after? I think after? I don't know if I spoke with him in the morning or not. I — I just don't know," said Jordan in the first clip.

"Of course I talked to the president. I talked to him that day. I have been clear about that. I don't recall the number of times," said Jordan in the second clip.

"John, what do you do with that?" asked Bolduan.

"Well, that's not the normal Jordan answer," said Dean. "He is pretty crisp and pretty clear on most of his answers. His mind is probably trying to calculate, well, what kind of exposure do I have at this stage in answering that question? And I think he does have exposure because of the texts he forwarded the day before. I'll tell you, if they ever start pursuing conspiracy charges, he walked right into a conspiracy to obstruct Congress. To — was it a seditious conspiracy? May — may well have been. So I think he knows he has exposure, and if he ever is in front of that committee, he will probably have to take the [Fifth Amendment]. That's probably another reason he doesn't want to go."

LOL, even the low life trolls at CNN are getting tired of bozo biden and his never ending senile stupidity.....

CNN reporter knocks Biden over interview on COVID test shortages: He 'seems confused'
Jeff Zeleny: Biden 'really not accepting any responsibility' for testing shortage


CNN correspondent Jeff Zeleny knocked President Biden as "confused" about COVID-19 tests on Wednesday over his performance in an ABC interview that aired earlier in the evening.

In the interview with ABC's David Muir, Biden repeatedly misspoke when referencing the 500 million at-home coronavirus tests ordered by the administration to distribute to the American people, referring to them as "pills" instead of "tests," and avoided taking responsibility for his administration's failure to have enough tests available for the expected winter surge of the virus.

"Repeatedly throughout this interview … President Biden seems confused and was confusing the half a billion tests that they’ve ordered with a half a billion pills. And, of course, pills were in the news today with the Pfizer approval of the anti-viral, so he corrected himself, but that was one thing that stuck out to me," Zeleny said after host Wolf Blitzer played a clip of the interview.

"But then simply this administration, and the president leading the charge here, really not accepting any responsibility at all for this lack of testing," Zeleny added. "We’ve seen these images across the country, long lines, just the inability to get tests. And yes, omicron came on very quickly here, but it has been almost a month since Thanksgiving where they knew this was coming."

Zeleny noted Biden said he wished he had acted faster, but that, so far, there wasn't any sense that the administration would be sending out the ordered tests in early January as the latter suggested in the interview.

Biden has faced criticism over the lack of testing, with some blasting him as being "behind the times," considering the increasing rate at which the virus has spread in recent weeks.

Earlier this week Biden was pressed by reporters on the lack of availability of coronavirus tests, with some asking if it was a "failure" on the part of his administration to make sure there was enough available amid the high demand and the rise of the omicron variant.

Biden claimed that it wasn't a failure and that no one anticipated the virus would be spreading this rapidly. However, on Wednesday, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Rochelle Walensky contradicted him when she told Fox News' Bret Baier that the rise in cases was "exactly what we anticipated."

 

Elon Musk tells us that he wont go on CNN for one reason:


''I'm not perverted enough''..

 

Its interesting that suddenly Elon Musk is being targeted by despicables about his taxes.
Wonder what their long game is.

Assuming they even are smart enough to have a long plan that is.

Miss Shooter, anon?

 

What can you expect from brainless Libfuck politicians (and their little sheep 'yes men' Libtards) who have no knowledge about American Tax codes or how they work?

What you can expect are empty accusations of 'tax fraud' against a person who takes no salary from his company.

 

Elon Musk says he will pay more taxes than any other American in history

https://fortune.com/2021/12/15/elon-musk-paying-taxes-most-history/

 

This is nothing more than the 'dictatorial factor' that plagues this Nation by the hack fuck leftists in Congress...they think the federal fucking government deserves more than the people.

 

Well, but you see, many despicables, including so many of those on this forum, believe that the government will take from fat greedy rich assholes like Musk and Trump and then give free shit to the despicables who are, you know, too lazy to do for themselves.

If despicables would just think the issue through for themselves they would realize, government will never give them what they want.

 

Oh look, another pedo at the Democrat heaven CNN....

Second CNN producer under 'criminal investigation' involving 'potential juvenile victims'
Rick Saleeby resigned earlier this month as a senior producer of 'The Lead with Jake Tapper'



A second ex-CNN producer is under criminal investigation over allegations involving "potential juvenile victims."

Fairfax County (Va.) Police Department confirmed to Fox News Digital a criminal investigation has been launched "into serious allegations involving potential juvenile victims" and that "detectives assigned to the Child Exploitation Squad of the Major Crimes Bureau are leading this investigation" into Rick Saleeby, a former senior producer for Jake Tapper's "The Lead."

"While we will eventually be transparent about our findings, safeguarding the personal privacy and safety of victims and witnesses as well as maintaining the integrity of our criminal investigation are of paramount importance," a spokesman for Fairfax County Police said in a statement.


A spokesman for CNN told Fox News Digital, "The person in question no longer works for CNN" and that he had resigned earlier this month. The probe comes on the heels of the arrest of former CNN producer John Griffin, who is facing federal sex crime charges involving children.

The investigation into Saleeby appears to be tied to reporting by the conservative guerilla journalism outlet Project Veritas. The Fairfax County Police Department confirmed to Fox News Digital that it had been in communication with Project Veritas as well as possibly affected victims as part of its investigation.

The spokesman also told Fox News police seized "numerous items from the subject's Virginia home" but declined to go into further detail.

Fox News reached out to Saleeby's attorney for comment.

While Saleeby resigned from CNN, Griffin was fired after his arrest on charges involving enticing minors for sex.

"The charges against Mr. Griffin are deeply disturbing. We learned of his arrest Friday afternoon and terminated his employment Monday," a CNN spokesperson told Fox News earlier this month.

Griffin was charged by a grand jury in Vermont "with three counts of using a facility of interstate commerce to attempt to entice minors to engage in unlawful sexual activity." He offered a woman $30,000 for a "mother daughter weekend with me," and told authorities that he was "ashamed" when he was taken into custody after allegedly abusing a 9-year-old girl and enticing other minors.


"According to the indictment, from April to July of 2020, Griffin utilized the messaging applications Kik and Google Hangouts to communicate with people purporting to be parents of minor daughters, conveying to them, among other ideas, that a ‘woman is a woman regardless of her age,’ and that women should be sexually subservient and inferior to men," the U.S. Attorney's Office in Vermont wrote in a statement. "On these communication platforms, Griffin sought to persuade parents to allow him to train their daughters to be sexually submissive. In June of 2020, Griffin advised a mother of 9- and 13-year-old daughters that the mother’s responsibility was to see that her older daughter was ‘trained properly.’"

"Griffin later transferred over $3,000 to the mother for plane tickets so the mother and her 9-year-old daughter could fly from Nevada to Boston’s Logan airport. The mother and child flew to Boston in July of 2020, where Griffin picked them up in his Tesla and drove them to his Ludlow house. At the house, the daughter was directed to engage in, and did engage in, unlawful sexual activity," the statement read.

According to the U.S. Attorney's Office in Vermont, the 44-year-old CNN staffer "attempted to entice two other children over the internet to engage in sexual activity" and in April 2020, he "proposed to engage in a ‘virtual training session’ over a video chat that would include him instructing the mother and her 14-year-old daughter to remove their clothing and touch each other at his direction."


Additionally, Griffin "proposed to a purported mother of a 16-year-old daughter that she take a ‘little mother-daughter trip’ to Griffin’s Ludlow ski house for sexual training involving the child" in June 2020.

Court documents revealed federal investigators seized "computers storage media, devices, phones, cameras, MicroSD cards, images, and video" from Griffin on Sept. 2, 2020,

"Prior to his arrest and indictment, we had no knowledge about the case," a CNN spokesman told Fox News. The media outlet also said no CNN-owned devices issued to Griffin went missing or were reported lost in September 2020, when investigators said they seized some of his electronics.

Griffin was a senior producer for CNN's long-struggling morning program "New Day" and previously worked alongside Chris Cuomo before Cuomo landed his own primetime show in 2018.

Cuomo was also fired this month after CNN learned of a former colleague at another network who came forward with a sexual misconduct allegation against the network's star anchor. Cuomo had already been suspended for aiding his brother, ousted New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, amid the Democrat's own sexual harassment scandal.
