Anonymous wrote:Why am I not surprised that CNN has close ties with Fusion GPS:

CNN’s reporting on the Trump-Russia dossier has left out at least one crucial fact: the close ties between the network and the opposition research firm at the center of the dossier controversy.

CNN’s reporting on the dossier, led by justice correspondent Evan Perez, has been favorable to the firm, Fusion GPS, and hyped the dossier’s credibility. Left out of Perez’s reporting, which has relied largely on unnamed sources, is his personal closeness to Fusion GPS’ operatives. Fusion has repeatedly been described in Senate testimonies as a smear-for-hire operation that manufactures misleading or false media narratives for its clients.

Glenn Simpson, the Fusion co-founder most often associated with the dossier, is used to working on stories with Perez. As reporters at The Wall Street Journal, Perez and Simpson regularly co-authored stories on national security.

Fascinating.

Twitter owner hates Trump. So there.

If this were actually true, Twitter would've suspended Trump's account many, many times for violating twitter's terms of service.

Twitter has decided, whether you agree or disagree, that it's not their place to muzzle the president. I think they're correct.

I actually disagree, because nuclear war. But hey, a profit, is a profit, I guess.

Trump has advisors. They could take his phone from him, the way Nixon's advisors handled him. This isn't the job for a private business.

Wrong thread.

+1. Last time we’ll say this. From here will ignore these posts so they don’t de-rail.

It is possible for mueller to continue his appointed investigation

While...

The other issues are looked at.

So, yeah, go to the other thread with your concerns about Uranium.

Did you write this yourself?

You are implying that Perez and Simpson's history as WSJ journalists together is a black mark. Seems like an indication that they're reputable to me.

Italics indicate no. Daily Caller article. Read it.

All opposition research firms are paid to dig up dirt and frame it in a negative light. Where do you think all those negative campaign ads come from?

Russia!

I'm sure that Mueller's job is difficult and largely thankless. The saving grace of his position is that he has the one job in the national spotlight where he doesn't have to give a rat's ass what people say about him on twitter. He's not obligated to talk to the press. He doesn't even have to utter a no comment. He just goes about his work. Beautiful like chocolate cake.

Even if Trump does manage to find someone to fire Mueller, it's not like the results of his investigation just disappear.

The firing/discrediting Mueller thing is pathetic. I don’t even want to give it attention. It would be so negative for the country. People, including republicans, would take to the streets. Congress would be forced to act. (Good thing trump is super tight with the senate, amirite?!) AND my guess is trump will do it. Hell, he’ll do ANYTHING damaging and unprecedented to remain unaccountable (or let others in his orbit remain unaccountable). He doesn’t care about anyone but himself. If he does care, and I have him wrong, he hasn’t done anything to present himself that way. Not to this 33yo religious white mom who’s not conventionally beautiful, and a centrist conservative. I literally think he would insult me for existing.

So, anyone else think he’s going to go after Mueller?

Wrong move buddy.

Twitter makes many, many $$$$$ from t-rump's Twitter tantrums.
