You know things that affect real life.

But for TMZ/CNN/MSNBC any anti-trump news must be "THE STORY OF THE DAY"
Is it a witch hunt? Manafort still has yet to go on trial for the serious shit like being an unregistered agent for a foreign government.

Witch Hunt my Ass.

Robert S. Mueller III, the special counsel investigating possible links between the Trump campaign and Russian officials, has issued more than 100 criminal counts against 32 people and three companies. Additionally, Michael D. Cohen, a former lawyer of President Trump, pleaded guilty to charges that stemmed from evidence originally found by Mr. Mueller’s inquiry, including campaign finance violations related to payments made to two women who said they had affairs with Mr. Trump.

And yet EVERY indictment of foreign agents has specifically said:
No US citizens knowingly engaged foreign agents to subvert the election
No election results were impacted BY foreign activity
No implication in any of the foreign indictments of criminal activity by the trump administration.

As for the indictments of the us citizens reflect white collar crimes from before trump was a presidential candidate, or ongoing activity that was unrelated to the campaign

Finally, as i said Cohen's plea deal says that trump paid hush money as a fec violation, but unless trump used campaign funds (current information says he didnt) .

So yes its a witch hunt or fishing expedition full of smoke and mirrors to keep an anti trump base energized when the REAL WORLD issues with trumps presidency are all moving in positive directions.

Re: Media Bias

The funny thing is that even with the msm bias, burying positive news, high pointing the smoke and mirror mueller, and covering up the socialist anti american platform of the stars of the democratic platform rcp polls continue to trend upward for trump especially when taken out of "trump approval" and focused on his policy accomplishments. The media hitmen have certainly kept his personal rating down, but at the polls in primaries, its done nothing for swamp denizens.

Re: Media Bias

When this all started,the voice from the republicans was it never happen .



After Flynn it was ,it was looked at as he lied to the President.


Now after Manafort and Cohn,both now "CONVICTED FELONS" both still waiting to go into other trials which can go to connect other wrong doings by the President . The trump Republicans look at it as nothing but "White Collar " crimes ,they seem to forget what "white Collar crimes" did to this country at the end of the Bush Presidency. It's is only trump republicans that think this type of crime can not hurt this country. The trump supporters honestly don't care about this country and will ignore every an all crimes having to do with trump regardless of how it makes this country look.They honestly don't care about America.

Re: Media Bias

Media Bias, or Headline BS?

first headline on Yahoo homepage when I open it up
Quote:
Omarosa ready to testify at Trump's impeachment trial
Looking at that headline do you think that there is an impeachment trial of Trump already in progress?

I really hate Headline writers, because I don't want to lump them in with media bias, I just think they are TMZ journalist wannabees

Donald Trump has been warned the “countdown” to impeachment is underway, after his former lawyer implicated the president in crimes committed during the 2016 election.

On Thursday, Mr Trump publicly addressed the prospect of impeachment for the first time, claiming the market would “crash” if his presidency was threatened.

“I don't know how you can impeach somebody who has done a great job,” Mr Trump told Fox News. “I will tell you what, if I ever got impeached, I think the market would crash. I think everybody would be very poor because, without this thinking, you would see – you would see numbers that you wouldn't believe, in reverse.”

Mr Trump’s comments came after Michael Cohen, his long-time legal “fixer”, pleaded guilty to eight criminal charges, including two counts of campaign finance violations, which he said he committed at the direction of the president.

Cohen admitted paying hush money to adult film actress Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal, both alleged to have had extramarital affairs with Mr Trump.

Tom Cole, a Republican member of the House of Representatives, warned it was "too soon" to begin impeachment proceedings, but said: "If something comes out that is clear and convincing and impeachable, I think members will act."

Al Green, a Democratic congressman who has previously filed articles of impeachment against Mr Trump, suggested he may do so again following Cohen’s guilty plea.

"I think the president has to realise that the countdown to impeachment has already started,” he said. "He, at some point, will have to choose if he will face impeachment or if he will resign. It will be his choice. The congress will have no choice but to act.”

"At some point, we have to act."

I was only talking about the headline. I thought my post made that clear. Sorry if it wasn't

I agree with this but it's nothing new and it's definitely not just a liberal or conservative thing.
