CNN has done a 360.

A tfg supporter bought them out. You should read up on it. Some have been fired and some are towing the line. It is sad, she was one of my favorites.

She made one twitter comment about the military, and she’s married to a military guy. She has a right to her opinion.

She has made far more than one comment, she wants Hunter to be investigated again.

Sun Sep 4, 2022, 06:39 PM

Once Giuliani got his corrupt mitts on the laptop, there's nothing about it that anyone with two brain cells to rub together should take seriously. So naturally Sidner is wondering.

fell that buzz, it makes it easy for them.

just heard bongino recently on radio (took over half of limbaugh's stations) - so millions of active and passive listeners (getting weather, sports, traffic etc) being told about the bidens getting huge bucks from china etc - while dems ignore it

One day she may wake up and realize that she is now living in a fascist country and she helped it happen. Maybe she won’t care as long as she keeps her job.

Everything i've heard is that DOJ IS looking into it and might indict. She's making it sound like FBI "blew it off" but they were very much looking into that matter, but obviously she just wants people to think "oh FBI blew it off but they raid drumpf because of Biden and politics"

10. It's weird how Hunter can film himself so often while he's passed out.
Sun Sep 4, 2022, 07:09 PM
Sep 2022

There's more footage of him passed out than there is of me awake.

Lev Parnas says Hunter was 100% set up, and I believe him. The laptop is fake with planted material, mixed with legitimate emails that Russia had hacked earlier, as they always do.

Sun Sep 4, 2022, 09:17 PM

A blind computer repairman goes through files that supposedly Hunter Biden left in a laptop, makes copies of the contents and gives the laptop to the FBI. After determining for himself that the FBI wasn't doing enough about it, he takes a copy to Rudy Giuliani.

Sounds too much like a setup to me.

Sun Sep 4, 2022, 09:50 PM
Sep 2022

And that was the source for all of the materials on "his" laptop. Then the laptop was just planted with the blind computer repair shop owner BS.

This always seemed a very likely possibility to me.

Sun Sep 4, 2022, 07:36 PM
Sep 2022

Rudy Giuliani or others had their hands on it.

Even Washington Post verification is dicey - verified to what? To their copy of the laptop disk that may well have been messed with?

There may be a criminal investigation. As the man is innocent until proven otherwise, it is largely nobody's business until they indict him. DoJ can't talk about it. Biden's lawyer would tell him not to talk about it. So that's it.

Then Benghazi, soon followed by Obama's birth certificate or his tan suit.

They are not equivalent to a former president stealing and selling off our top national secrets for his own pleasure and profit.

Bunch of fascist buffoons calling themselves news reporters.

Talking heads are like interchangeable parts. They have no soul, no scruples and little intelligence. Simply hand them a script and they'll blab about anything you like. Left wing, reich wing, doesn't matter. Hard to believe these people earn high 6 figures or better. I guess Don Henley said it best....
