Canada’s Gone ‘Covfefe’ on Terrorism:
Time to Tweak Trump’s Travel Ban

.
. CNN's Credibility Crisis
CNN, in an effort to restore some semblance of journalistic integrity, accepted resignations from three veteran reporters after it had to retract their latest Trump/Putin collusion fake news report. The report alleged a nefarious meeting between the Russians and an associate of Donald Trump — quite a leap — claiming a single anonymous source. Not only was the story retracted but CNN also issued an apology to Anthony Scaramucci, the target of the story. The three who resigned are reporter Thomas Frank, editor Eric Lichtblau and executive editor Lex Haris.
CNN didn't admit that the story was bogus, but only that it "did not meet CNN's editorial standards and has been retracted" and that "an internal investigation by CNN management found that some standard editorial processes were not followed..." "Some standard editorial processes?" After CNN retracted the article, it circulated an internal email explicitly warning reporters to gain approval before publishing anything "involving Russia." CNNMoney executive director Rich Barbieri warned, "No one should publish any content involving Russia without coming to me and Jason [Farkas]." He continued "This applies to social, video, editorial and MoneyStream. No exceptions."
In an unusually candid admission, CNN producer John Bonifield says the Trump/Putin collusion reporting is "mostly bullsh-t right now." Actually, it has been nothing more than that since the first report. Of course, the real "collusion" posing the greatest threat to Liberty is between the Democratic Party and their mainstream media outlets (the DemoMSM propaganda machine) in their thinly veiled effort to derail Trump's agenda. And CNN is leading that charge — as you recall, a recent Harvard study on media bias found that 93% of CNN's coverage of Donald Trump was negative.
So what's going on here? Apparently, CNN is facing an escalating credibility crisis, and that may eat into its advertising revenue. As a leading news network that claims its brand upholds objective journalistic standards, the exposure of a plethora of fake news reports is seriously threatening that brand. Some media observers have sarcastically referred to CNN as the "Communist News Network," but clearly CNN has a lot of "journalists" who have proven to be effective propagators of Russia's "dezinformatsiya" campaign against Trump's agenda. ~The Patriot Post

Habitual Excuse Making
Failures McConnell, Ryan Are Not Leaders
by Rick Wells
{rickwells.us} ~ Lou Dobbs has a few thoughts on “the inability of Congressional leaders to deliver for this president on his agenda the first time around... The latest failure comes from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell after he was forced to pull his bill to repeal and replace liar-nObamacare, effectively pull it, with six Republicans now opposed to the plan, publically.” Dobbs plays a clip of Mitch McConnell and his lieutenant, Sen John Cornyn (R-TX) standing outside the White House as McConnell offers the customary excuses for failing to perform, how he had hoped to have delivered but “they’re not quite there.” He thinks they’ve got a really good chance of getting there, it’s just going to take them “a little bit longer.” Nobody can stretch out a defeat into as many nonproductive weeks as Mitch McConnell. Dobbs follows those comments up with what millions of Americans were likely shouting at their TV sets in unison, “Which makes you wonder, what have they been doing all this time? The Senate now plans to leave for its July 4th recess Friday, without passing a health care bill...http://rickwells.us/dobbs-habitual-excuse-making-failures-mcconnell-ryan-not-leaders/
China Attacks India-
The Implications Are Staggering
by Dave Hodges
{thecommonsenseshow.com} ~ This conflict did not remain just a war of words for long as the Russian media is collectively reporting that the Chinese crossed the border and destroyed two Indian bunkers in the Sikkim region of the Chinese-Indian border... Yes it is absolutely true, China and crossed the Indian border and has attacked and destroyed two bunkers. This is very serious. Because of arch-rival India’s involvement, it would not take much to encourage Pakistan to become involved as well. There is a major MSM blackout of this event. However, the Russian media is all over this story. What are they reporting? It is in the following video... http://www.thecommonsenseshow.com/2017/06/27/breaking-news-china-attacks-india-the-implications-are-staggering/
.Sarah Palin Suing
New York Times For Defamation
by Peter Hasson
{dailycaller.com} ~ Sarah Palin is suing The New York Times for defamation, according to documents filed in federal court Tuesday that were obtained by The Daily Caller... The lawsuit has to do with an editorial the NYT ran on June 14 that falsely smeared Palin as inciting the 2011 shooting of Democratic Rep. Gabby Giffords by a mentally ill man. There is no evidence to support the NYT’s implication that Palin played a role in inciting the Giffords shooting. “Mrs. Palin brings this action to hold The Times accountable for defaming her by publishing a statement about her that it knew to be false: that Mrs. Palin was responsible for inciting a mass shooting at a political event in January 2011,” Palin’s suit states...http://dailycaller.com/2017/06/27/sarah-palin-suing-new-york-times-for-defamation/
