Oh, right. I "know absolutely nothing" about it because Chickie says so. Offer an actual attempt at refuting the facts that I posted? Nah, that's beyond little Chickie.
Now, go play with your Legos and Barbie dolls.

Once again, thanks for the morning laugh! . You really don’t understand your level of stupidity, do you?

The alternative universe that idiots like a Whell live in.
https://www.thenation.com/article/el...o-the-racists/
Heidi Beirich, director of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Intelligence Project, pointed to an August 2017 Washington Post/ABC News poll indicating that 9 percent of Americans now find it acceptable to hold neo-Nazi views. ( Among strong Trump supporters, 17 percent say they accept neo-Nazi views, and 13 percent say they have no opinion one way or the other.) “This is a Trump phenomenon,” Beirich told me. “In the past, [white-power groups] saw no space for themselves in the public sphere at all. You’d see the Aryan Nations saying, ‘We never really thought politics was worth our time.’” Both Trump and a new clutch of racist candidates, she added, have had the effect of “reengaging white supremacists in the political system. Before, they were basically apolitical.”
In the new Republican universe, a flood of so-called alt-lite media organs and activists have become enormously influential. Sites like The Daily Caller, The Gateway Pundit, The Rebel Media, Infowars, GotNews, and other “mini-Breitbarts” have championed the alt-right, employed white nationalists as editors and writers, and expressed views similar to white nationalism. And through their popularity and their ties to Trump staffers, they’ve been able to influence the White House and demonstrate that there is room for the advocacy of openly racist policies in the US political system. President Trump has read and reacted to at least one article from GotNews, which is run by the racist Internet troll Chuck Johnson. (The piece was about a supposed leak by deputy chief of staff Katie Walsh, with Politico reporting that she left the White House shortly after.) Alt-lite solo media man Mike Cernovich—who has said “diversity is code for white genocide” and “I like choking a woman until her eyes almost go lifeless”—has demonstrated access to the White House through his scoops on personnel matters and Trump’s strike on Syria last April. Both Donald Trump Jr. and Kellyanne Conway have publicly praised Cernovich, with the president’s son saying he deserves “a Pulitzer.” Cernovich has announced he’s considering running for Congress in California this year.

Trump keeps saying he’s innocent. So why does he keep sounding like he’s guilty?
As concern grew inside his orbit that Michael Cohen might become a cooperating witness to federal investigators, President Trump issued a declaration about his longtime personal lawyer and fixer.
“Most people will flip if the Government lets them out of trouble,” Trump tweeted over the weekend. He added: “Sorry, I don’t see Michael doing that.”
By asserting that the government would not be able to “flip” Cohen, Trump invited a question: If the Russia probe is the “witch hunt” the president says it is — and if he is as innocent as he so often proclaims — what incriminating evidence would Cohen have on Trump that would give him leverage to flip?
It was only the latest instance of the president adopting a posture vis-a-vis his legal troubles that is both combative and defensive — and, perhaps unwittingly, seems to assume guilt.
Manafort and now Cohen with Flynn wedged somewhere in between must be giving Dotard the runs.
So the $64,000 question is will Cohen flip? Cannot imagine someone going to jail for a sociopath like Trump. Besides, there has to be a reason why the case was referred to New York Feds.

I’ve no idea who Diamond & Silk are, but apparently Whell’s wingnut media has been spreading lies about Facebook. The wingnuts in Congress play right along. These two even lie under oath to Congress. This is what Whell sees as fairness in media? How incredibly stupid does one have to be to believe this nonsense? How did we get to this place in this country?

Speaking of Fake news, the House Intelligence Committee just created one, a big one.
House Intelligence Committee Republicans release final Russia report
Quote:
House Intelligence Committee Republicans released a redacted version of their final report from a year-long probe into Russia’s “multifaceted” influence operation, generally clearing President Trump and his associates of wrongdoing while accusing the intelligence community and the FBI of failures in how they assessed and responded to the Kremlin’s interference in the 2016 election.
The report accuses the intelligence community of “significant intelligence tradecraft failings” in determining that the Kremlin interfered in the 2016 election to help Trump, suggesting that Russia’s main goal was to sow discord in the United States. It says investigators found “no evidence that the Trump campaign colluded, coordinated, or conspired with the Russian government” — even as it details contacts between Trump campaign officials and Russians or Russian intermediaries.
|
It is my fervent hope that the intelligence committee (read FBI) leaks just about every dirt they have in their possession on these sycophant members of the House. That will be justice well served.

RedState and the Dwindling Space for Anti-Trump Conservatives
The website’s decision to terminate some of its most prominent writers is the latest evidence of a dramatic shift in right-wing outlets.
https://www.theatlantic.com/politics...atives/559223/
The cleansing of conservative thinkers continues unabated. Wingnuts only, please! Whell must be gloating.
