    The only reason the liberal loonies needed for campaigning to impeach Trump is that he beat Bitchery.

    I was thinking Adam Schitt but he is actually Stanford/Harvard. Blumenthal is the guy that really stands out. He's the phony Vietnam vet. His bio says Yale. Wonder if that is fake too.

    Nader's not the blow hard that some of the others are. Party guy but not a shoot from the hip radical.

    Blumenthal (on Wiki) says undergrad at Harvard, 1 year at Cambridge, and Yale Law...

    Cripes.... Rudy Giuliani is in the deep end of the pool now, isn't he??

    Oh, that's right... Rudy is now a TV lawyer...

    ol' Rudy went to NYU. He's is a true blue New Yorker, the center of the universe.

    MEDIA IN VARIOUS STAGES OF GRIEF OVER COLLAPSE OF BUZZFEED TRUMP/COHEN STORY:

    Rachel Maddow, and MSNBC generally, is in the bargaining phase. BUT HE’S STILL A BAD MAN! Don’t stop trying to impeach him just because Buzzfeed may have screwed up, and anyway, maybe Buzzfeed’s report is false but accurate! RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA!

    It took Maddow 10 minutes to conclude “Happy Two Years of the Trump Administration” before turning to Ben Smith, who defended the story.

    See what she did there? Mueller’s rebuke of Buzzfeed becomes an afterthought.​

    Former and current Democratic activist Chuck Todd isn’t taking it too well, either. Fortunately, Mollie Hemingway is pushing back:

    To be fair, NBC has a lot invested in BuzzFeed, literally and figuratively: Flashback to 2015: NBCUniversal makes $200-million investment in BuzzFeed.

    CNN likes to tell lies and make up and parrot fake news. They should be sued.

    So far, the Special Prosecutor has not commented as Buzzflash stands by its story!

    Yeah, That story is making a comeback. Of course Rudy gave it a little jump start this morning.

    If "telling lies" and "making up and parroting fake news" was a crime--Trump (and his cronies) would be doing Life without Parole.

    "This is the behavior of a media class that is interested in selling narratives, not reporting truth. And yet the mass media talking heads are all telling us today that we must continue to trust them..."

    John Denver had it right: "Blow up the TV . . . "

    We knew you and your ilk weren't going to let this go no matter how embarrassing it got. Even the Washington Post has refuted it now. Please continue. ROFL.

    And you got it right.
    We will just fold it into the questions for the Trump family when we call them back to testify before congress. No problem.

    Well.... now that we know that the Buzzfeed article was fictitious do you suppose that they will spend the entire day today apologizing for, once again, spreading their fake news, passing false reporting and advancing a malicious narrative?

    I'm not holding my breath.. They simply cannot take the position at CNN or MSNBC or NBC, or CBS et al that they just "reported" the story because Buzzfeed published it, or that the story was just about Buzzfeed doing something as shoddy and dangerous as they did.

    Nope. Not this time. MSM ran, hook line, and sinker with this one breathlessly trampling over each other to be the most histrionic doomsayers for the Trump.

    And look, there were... wait for it.... baited? That's what many in media are now suggesting. It wasn't their fault that they reported this shyte. they were "baited" into reporting it...

    Laughable.
