More lies, more deceit.

Democrats, you have to vote in November. We have to open investigations into all of this. Republican traitor Devin Nunes has continued to cover for Donald Trump.

I'm not a Democrat. Libertarian leaning independent I guess would be accurate. But come November I intend to vote the straight Democratic ticket right down the line.

trump tweet from today:


“Anonymous Sources are really starting to BURN the media.” @FoxNews The fact is that many anonymous sources don’t even exist. They are fiction made up by the Fake News reporters. Look at the lie that Fake CNN is now in. They got caught red handed! Enemy of the People!"

lanny davis wasn't one of CNN's sources for the original story. davis declined to comment when CNN originally contacted him. davis was the anonymous confirmation source for the NY post, washington post and others when they checked the validity of the CNN claim. davis now backtracking to a "can neither confirm or deny" position does not affect the original sources of CNN.

Limbaugh said, "It appears that the (Jacksonville) shooter was part of the Trump 'Resistance'."

Limbaugh’s comments were based on an article by the Gateway Pundit, which has since retracted its claim about the shooter’s anti-Trump political leanings.

We searched through articles about the perpetrator and found no evidence the shooting was politically motivated.

We rate this claim False.

well, lets see if he has the character to retract the statement or if he just leaves it hanging for his listeners to accept as fact.

[ re-posted from another thread ]


buzzfeed has a good article on the topic. i think a lot of the players and timeline is getting conflated:


https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article...mp-tower-story


here's what i got from it:


* lanny davis was not one of the "sources with knowledge" in the original CNN piece. davis was contacted by CNN for the piece but "declined to comment".


* after the CNN piece aired several media outlets, including the NY post and washington post, contacted davis for confirmation on CNN's story. he did, but on the condition of anonymity.


* davis then reversed position, going public that he was the confirmation source but now claims he "misspoke" and can neither confirm or deny the information. NY post and washington post have confirmed that davis was their source.


* CNN stands by their story since davis was never one of the original sources for the information.

Trump and the GOP are terrified of the Democrats nominated.

Trump has taken the time to lie about them already. His pick in Fla. Gov. race has dropped his first racial remark.

The GOP has become what no one wants. A party of liars and racists.
