Remember when Don Lemon was outraged that Haiti is a shithole? Remember when everyone was outraged that Trump lied about Obama wiretapping his campaign? Remember when Trump said the media was the enemy of the people?

How many hoaxes are enough? It's a constant stream of them.

If their political ideologies were reversed Facebook would be out of business for censorship.

Instead, hate is so strong for Trump good people become morally bankrupt while Blinded by hate. They then project their insecurities as attacks against those they don’t agree with.

historical parallels to these types of decisions generally didn’t end well.

The president of the United States, who you wholeheartedly support, publicly accuses his critics of treason and calls for their imprisonment.

Read that sentence again and reflect on it.

 

Also, can you please address where you draw the line on what a private business can do regarding refusing service or access to consumers.

No, he accuses the people who set up a phony investigation with a fake, unconfirmed dossier, paid for by his political opponent of treason.  There are a zillion critics of his on social media, non-social media, and every other walk of life who he does not accuse of treason.  The only people he has accused of treason are actual traitors and abusers of power.

 

Also can you address where you draw the line on just how much business and involvement a private company can have with the Department of Defense and the intelligence agencies and still be considered a private company and not a partner of the government?

You conveniently leave out all of the other evidence that convinced a judge that surveillance was warranted.

I'll just note you left it out as well, as did the people composing the FISA application.

You sound like someone who should be pissed at the former GOP. They started the investigation with several of their men at the helm, supported by (not based on) a dossier paid for by the campaign of a former GOP presidential candidate.

What other evidence?  They tried getting a warrant without the dossier and the it was turned down.

Just stop. They created a fake Russian crime and now want to impeach because Trump uttered his catch phrase. “Your fired “. It’s beyond pathetic but they forge on because they believe they are on the just side and will wipe their ass with the constitution to get what they want.

You don't find it important to be critical of the news outlet that the President may base his day to day decisions on?

Cool

I find it predictable and pathetic that you default to whatabout when presented with Jim Acosta’s bullshit.

I find it predictable and pathetic that you find Jim Acosta to be bullshit journalism while defending a whole fake news network of which the President uses for propaganda. One seems more important and impactful than the other. Exponentially so. 

But hey, one news guy is going after the President and "parsing his words" so let's focus on him.

if everyone is innocent, who gives a shit about fisa warrants and dossiers?  is this just a civil liberties discussion?

So you're all for the Homeland security act, and eavesdropping on citizens incoming and outgoing calls because after all, they're all innocent.

Remember when the media was outraged that Trump might not accept the outcome of the election?

Here are six articles from CNN talking about it: https://www.bing.com/search?q=trump+might+not+accept+the+results+of+the+election+site%3Acnn.com&PC=U316&FORM=CHROMN

Here's Hillary claiming the election was stolen. This whole Russia hoax was an attempt to overturn the democratic process. They want to impeach over a cover up but they can't name the crime being covered up. 

 

We are at war with Eastasia. We have always been at war with Eastasia.

I can't wait for the next hoax. It's been at least a few days, we're due.

Curious if this commentator has seen Fox news and their liars and grifters. You know, that largest cable news channel that the President likes to parrot?

I guess you are unaware of Tim Pool's background.  He was one of the founders of Vox.  Not exactly a website anyone has ever confused with Breitbart or Info Wars.

You do realize 90% of the posters in this thread haven't accepted the result of the 2016 election yet either?

Luckily, you only have circumstantial evidence for that number and that doesn't count, you fucking moron.

Best summation of the infiltration of the Fox News agenda on all of media and the pitfalls of the rest of the media trying to appear unbiased, which falls right into the trap of the “hack gap” set up by FN and conservative talk radio.

Well we didn't go a week without a new hoax. Media all in an uproar about Trump retweeting a "doctored" video of Pelosi. It was wasn't doctored. It was edited. There was no doctoring.

Obviously Hillary had to get in on the game, and claims the "doctored" video (Hillary needs a doctor, that's different) is "sexist trash". Never stop doing you, Hilldawg.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Friday slammed President Trump for spreading "sexist trash" after he shared a video of Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) edited to make it seem like she was stuttering.

Clinton accused Trump and his "cronies" of "running around spreading a doctored video of Nancy Pelosi" while speaking at the Harris County Democratic Party's annual luncheon in Houston, USA Today reported.

"Now it is sexist trash," Clinton said to cheers from the crowd, according to the newspaper. "But it is also a sign that Trump is running scared."

What's wrong with doctored? Is it like the term "spy" when referencing an investigation?
