Nunes Sues CNN!

Representative Devin Nunes, who allegedly co-chairs the House "Intel" Committee with Schiffty Schiff (even though it turns out Schiffty obtained and used Nunes' phone records from AT&T in his Shampeachment against President Trump) is suing CNN over false reporting about a visit to Vienna which never occurred. CNN is not alone in fake reporting, but in this case Nunes can demonstrate the specific lie, and, apparently, the damages it caused, as well as the fact that the lie was intentional in order to bolster the Shampeachment, which they have been cheerleading, and which Nunes has been offering valid opposition to. I hope he wins, as well as Nick Sandmann and his lawsuit against various media over the Covington Catholic kids' defamation, There is reporting what has occurred, opinionating on what has occurred, and there ought to be the freedom to do so. But there are limits to what are obvious and hurtful lies and untruths disguised as "reporting". I often use the Bing frontpage as a source for material here, but I am well aware of their bias and often point it out. But the average person just getting his/her news from opening a web browser and giving a cursory glance at the trending topics gets fed what BING wants them to see and to know. And the media companies back up their biased reportage with their entertainment fare, where characters regularly wink and mock at the idea of "fake news", while their news divisions actively engage in the practice.

From Russia With Hate.

SOMEONE touched a nerve, and the House of Horrors is apparently pushing back! As always, an unnamed Democrat (a "whistleblower" if you will) promises an "ethics" investigation, which is what Republican'ts get when they embarrass the Democrats (the reverse, as with Feinstain, never occurs) over Nunes' alleged connection to the Russkies, the same dog-eared play that the Dems have been using for four or more years.

  Perhaps it's time to look at the Russkie timeline. Back in 2012 the Obama Administration had such a good relationship with the Russians that President Obama was caught on a hot mic promising Russian President Dmitry Medvedev that he would have more "flexibility" after his re-election to a second term. However, between that moment and the second term, in 2013 Russia passed a law banning gay propaganda aimed at children, which the Presstitutes dutifully labelled "Anti-gay" or, later, anti-LGBT, and the Gaystapo demanded that Obama put pressure on the Russkies to relent or face their financial wrath, as they withdrew funding for the campaign.
  I doubt that Obama required that much arm-twisting. The gay vote wasn't going anywhere, even if the Republican'ts had put forth a viable candidate, and not fall guy Mittens Romney. I assume he wanted an excuse to chill relations and maybe make it look as if his promise of flexibility had been misinterpreted. Obama "opted out of attending the winter Olympics held in Sochi, Russia. The snub was intentional. Under the Obama administration, the United States has long critiqued Russia’s human rights record, especially with regards to LGBTQ issues." He was of course elected to a second term, and the New Cold War began.
  When the Clintons failed in their bid for a Third Term in 2016, the Presstitutes dutifully began alleging Russian interference in the election as the cause. The Deep State alphabet agencies complied as well, making accusations without verification, and ignoring that the true foreign interference had been from Mexico, which gave the Clintons a "popular vote" win.
 The basis for the HERR Mueller Inquisition had been President Trump's alleged Russian collusion, and after a two year proctology exam they found nothing, but the accusations are still trotted out. The media even managed to make the Russians the "new" evildoers in many many series and films, since the Russkies can invariably be played by white actors and actresses, and there are no complaints about racism. A win/win, and an example of the reach and power of the Gaystapo. A small but vocal and wealthy group.
