CNN Journos Are Angry About The Marines

[FelineOverlord]

Weird how they are saying the same things. I guess Harwood refused.

Strange that they are focused on the Marines being there when EVERY President gives speeches with Marines.

1. I believe it is called the President's Marine Band. It's always used at presidential events

9. Uh, oh!

2. Anyone still working at CNN is only still at CNN because of their willingness to carry water

for Repukes under this new FUX-like agenda their boss has directed. Keep that in mind when you encounter content from people you've followed/watched for years and previously found trustworthy or interesting.

3. This is what they're reduced to carping about

They can't argue against the substance of his address. President Biden was factual and forthright (unlike so many of the speeches his predecessor gave, speeches every major media outlet carried live, for some reason). President Biden recounted the accomplishments under his administration, but he didn't claim personal credit for any of it. He mentioned these accomplishments as the product of concerted efforts by a wide range of people. He called on the country to honor its heritage and its history, to live up to the ideals it holds so dearly.

So, with nothing else to complain about, CNN makes up some bogus new rule against an honor guard of Marines accompanying the President in a public appearance. When he goes high, they go subterranean.

4. FFS! Trump used the south lawn of the White House

as part of the Republican nominating convention! It can’t get any more political than that.

15. Oh, the Hatch Act? Norms and protocols? Pfft! nt

5. They're just making shit up.

Why isn't CNN just completely ignored here,
as it should be everywhere?

[Hamlette]

6. Don't forget "Mission Accomplished" on an aircraft carrier

This is "the tan suit" scandal.

10. Marine band was great. President of the USA is there talking about threats to our will be Marines

Marine band was great. President of the USA is there talking about threats to our Nation of course there will be Marines at the location.

It's just far-righters trying to nick pick.

11. The only people who watch CNN are those who like CNN

Those who don't like CNN don't pay attention to it

19. There are always Marines around the President...

and the two door guards is standard procedure, for all presidents at any speech with that kind of venue.
