We are seeing the next stage of the LSD Coup.

Elimination of any political threat, while FREE & OPEN elections are still held.

Just read the DOJ has issued a statement now claiming the Passports Have Been Returned? A day after flat out stating they never had them. I guess, Trump one up'ed them by having proof they did not count on.

Either way, given their constant tripping over their own recorded politically skewed words, tactics and actions. The DOJ/_ _ _ Leadership would be hard press to discredit itself any harder.

#5 Donald Trump demands the release of 'completely unredacted' affidavit that sanctioned FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago after spokesman shared email appearing to show agents DID seize three of his passports - contradicting report from CBS' Norah O'Donnell

frank,

If I may suggest - firing makes her a martyr. On the other hand, continued correction and embarrassment just make her look less competent every single time.

Watching her made a fool of - repeatedly - is just full of schadenfeudaliciouness.

#8 Maybe, Mike. She's already on the CBS chopping block for her undeserved high salary v. ratings. They'll be firing her.

#9 Turn the other cheek? How's that worked for you?

Time to make 'bearing false witness' painful.

#10 We are at the stage where the intentional misinformation is flying hoping to muddy the crime.

#11 Why do we not trust media reporting? This is about Exhibit #3800 or so.

#13 Classic example of the media technique of lying with partial truth. It is factually accurate that the FBI "did not have them" when O'Donnell spoke. It was not stated but strongly implied that they never did. But is also factually accurate they were returned. But the former true statement was broadcast to a wide audience, and the admission they were returned was a tweet with a far smaller audience. In the twisted logic of liberal MSM reporting, they did not lie. They just didn't tell all of the truth!

#14 Nora O'Donnell is a damn liar and an ugly hag. Her stock in trade is half truths, lies and hysteria...propaganda to be succinct. She is true only to the CBS tradition of Dan Rather. I wasn't watching when she made this claim because I quit watching her a long, long time ago. She comes on here at 5:30 p.m. which some civilized people might consider to be their happy hour. How could I be happy watching her?

#15 It won't do any good if CBS fires O'Donnell because they'll find another flunky to read the same shit they give her to read. Example: I remember Scott Pelley's claim when he was the CBS News anchor that Christopher Steele was a reliable source of information. The best thing that could happen would be if everybody stopped watching CBS and all of the other compromised, corporate, main stream media outlets. Just turn the damn TV off and go outside for a walk or something...maybe read a book or go fishing. I dunno. Anything but sitting like a zombie in front of the television.

Yeah, I know, the Ministry of Truth wants that one down the Memory Hole. Shame on me. I remember it anyway.
