    Au Contraire,

    I don't see CNN calling Amanda Carpenter, Charlie Dent, John Kasich, and Mia Love "nazis' all whom appearing regularly on CNN, and I don't see CNN calling these conservatives "Nazis" -- Carlos Curbelo, Susan Del Percio, Elise Jordan, Mike Murphy, Jennifer Rubin, Joe Scarborough, Michael Steele, Charlie Sykes, Nicole Wallace, George Will and Rick Tyler all of whom appear on MSNBC.

    Now, we may disagree on things like health care, but they are worthy of the 'Republican" ascription, Trump and his supporters most certainly are not, they have abandoned conservative values. There are three Pacs now of conservatives against Trump, https://www.npr.org/2020/07/09/8890...-attention-their-impact-on-voters-is-less-cle

    Thank you for confirming the fact that you cannot refute the contents of the video.

    It's a short video, and you can't refute it. And, the reason is simple, what he says is true.

    I never say never to any prominent network, as the wiser course is to judge a segment based on the content of the message.

    If you said it were some loon on public access TV, you might have a valid point.

    To do otherwise is to do as ignorant people do.

    I remember the 2012 election.

    I hope that coalition of 4% of the GOP has some success.

    the trouble is the truth seldom appears on CNN. CNN aka the Clinton News network is to accurate reporting what horse urine is to a good martini. And seltzer is little more than a mildly deranged gossip columnist.

    By the way the Bushies and neocons, according to Dems lied and people died. You think lefties wouldn't give the time of day to those scumbags. But I guess Dems will side with anyone wants to put Americans out of work.

    The entire investigation was based on a fraudulent dossier paid for by Clinton. And in the end NO EVIDENCE could prove Trump worked with anyone to change an election. And He was NOT impeached on anything related to Russia. You drank the cool aid. He wouldn’t be president right now if anything you think is true actually is. You’re been trolled by a bitter Leftist MSM.

    I don't know anyone who is proudly voting for Biden. I know a lot of people who will vote by holding their nose, regardless which senile octogenarian who can't form coherent sentences they choose.

    We are in a truth emergency
    Yes, and have been since mid-2016. Since then the Democrats have been a incessant blizzard of untruths, make believe, and nefarious skulduggery.

    Brian Stelter??????? Surely you jest!

    Here's how "truth" works for some people

    Fill a bag with pennies. The pennies will represent "evidence"
    Form an opinion.
    Shake the bag.
    Pull out pennies and arrange them into a picture that proves the opinion true.
    If a penny doesn't fit, don't throw it out. Just put it back in the bag for later.
    Dare people to refute your picture penny by penny.
    As people point out bad pennies, return them to the bag, give the bag a shake and replace them with a "new" one.

    Not at all. One man's trash may well be another's treasure. The point simply being that they are all trash to one degree or the other a because they are all agenda driven news in which the agenda matters ever so much more than the truth. That merely means that one must not merely consume the news, but digest, study, collate, sort and reassemble what you here. The old bromide that the truth is always in the middle is no more accurate than the notion that it lies wholly on one side or the other.
