'There's a bunch of old white guys trying to silence me!' Kathy Griffin breaks down in tears claiming Trump family ruined her life
  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Kathy Griffin broke down in tears speaking about the constant attacks from the public and members of the Trump family over the past few days

  • She said that she has been receiving constant death threats, which she described as detailed and specific

  • Griffin, 56, also said that President Trump 'broke' her and that she does not expect her career to recover from his family's attacks

  • She added that she will not back down from this fight, saying: 'I am not afraid of Donald Trump. He is a bully'

  • Griffin said that the photo shoot was inspired by Megyn Kelly, and the comment Trump made to the then-Fox News host about 'blood coming out of everywhere'

  • It was also confirmed at the press conference that the Secret Service is investigating Griffin over the image

#1  Saw her presser with Spawn of Allred™.

Ms. Griffin babbled on and finally alluded to her being from "Park Forest Illinois."

Per Wiki, she was born in Oak Park where, at the Village Hall, her name is emblazoned on the rotunda. No mention anywhere in her bio about "Park Forest."

I've spaced out a few times under stress, but never forgot my hometown. Go figure.

#2  She dug a nice big hole for herself, and her fellow attention whore lawyer handed her a bigger shovel. Dig, Kathy, dig!

That photo/video is going to appear in Republican campaign ads from now till doomsday. Own it, Donks!

#3  Actions have consequences, Kathy. Personally, I hope that your destruction signals that the normals in USA are finally grasping the fact that you people are a bunch of wolves in sheep clothing. And that you should be dealt with by your own methods.

#4  "Old white guys." Why don't they just crawl off and die ?

#5  Crawl back under your rock and take the Legal Parasite Whore with ya. She had made a good attempt at rehab with her first apology. Apparently Bloom is an enabler in hole-digging

#6  Wait till ISIS shows up for your act of cultural appropriation.

#7  P2k, that has already been "reported" over at the Duffel Bag site.

#8  She judged the public opinion towards Trump based on Hollywoods opinion towards Trump and it exploded in her face.

I don't know if Barron really was freaked out by the image or if that was the most brilliant political maneuver ever, but once that made it into the story she was toast (especially since she joked she'd go after Barron). Americans hate when you attack children.

Now she's blaming Trump with a modified "he hit me back" defense which won't fly well either.

I wonder if any of the usual suspects are paying attention.

#9  She said she was going to keep attacking Trump, trying to elevate her tripe as brave political speech, but where Cathy, and who will pay to see it? Raving clowns on street corners don't rate much coverage after the crash. You just joined a host of sad, pathetic losers nobody cares about.....

#10  she joked she'd go after Barron

Joke or Freudian slip or she was serious and figured her Hollywood cronies wouldn't mind? I'm leaning toward #3.

#11  Maybe she can get a job as a cocktail waitress in some West Hollywood bar.

#12  #11 Maybe she can get a job as a cocktail waitress in some West Hollywood bar.

That would involve actual work. She's toast. Even dumpster fires get offended when you compare her to them

#14  I dunno then. Maybe bussing tables at Denny's...no, those jobs are reserved for illegal aliens. Gosh, what's a poor girl to do?

#15  Can she dance next to a pole?

#17  Her whining reminds me of the old joke about a man who kills his mother and his father. When he is tried for their murders, he throws himself on the mercy of the court because he is an orphan.

#18  These people never really get punished for things they do. The media won't rebuke her. I wonder how many good, effective and legal ways Rantburgers could think of to make her life miserable. Find the target, isolate her, and make her stinking life hell on earth. Ridicule, confront and annoy, twenty-four seven. Works for Alinsky.

WOW: Debbie Wasserman Schultz Fakes Voice on Call to Law Office… But FORGOT TO HIDE HER PHONE NUMBER!
[GatewayPundit] Right around 5:00 PM, attorney Elizabeth Beck’s office received a strange call from someone using a "robotic and genderless" voice changer and began snooping about the DNC lawsuit that was filed regarding 2016 election cheating. The suit is based on documents released by "Guccifer 2.0", which alleges that the DNC colluded with then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s campaign in an effort to "perpetrate a fraud on the public", which you can read about here.

The robotic voice closed with "Okey, dokey" after talking with the law firm’s secretary. When the law firm decided to look at who called, the caller ID showed that the number was not blocked. When the firm then googled the number, Debbie Wasserman Schultz’ office came up.

Below are excerpts from the filing:

#1  Is she that stupid, *cough* No Comment *cough*... Alternatively, this could be a case of Caller ID Spoofing...

#2  Yes, I believe she really is that stupid.
Posted by: Abu Uluque || 06/03/2017 12:47 Comments || Top||

#3  Just like her harangue of teh DC Police Chief holding onto her laptop as evidence in a criminal case, she really IS that stoopid and arrogant. And fugly

#4  Or one of her staff is that stoopid...
Imagine the office, aide hooks up the Super-Secret Spy Stuff© that they ordered on E-Bay, turns to another staffer and says...
"Here, hold my Starbucks while I do this..."

#5  Or one of her staff is that stoopid...

Well, yeah, if they're working for her...

#6  Wasserman is reality and cerebrally challenged.

#7  Unfortunately, you just described 50% of our leadership class.

And the remaining 50% are lazy.
