Can leftists perhaps take a deep breath now that Mueller has rebuked yet more fake news?

Leftists and journalists – but I'm being redundant here – have worked themselves into such a frenzy they have literally lost their ability to apply any critical thinking skills to all these various 'reports' that seem to crop up each week about Trump's immediate demise.

A word of advice: view leftist sites such as Buzz Feed with the same scrutiny you'd apply to a Breitbart article posted here.

Heck, with the track record of the mainstream media, I'd suggest skepticism of any news report at this point, regardless if the source is left or right sourced. It is apparent that any former standards of journalism have been put aside in all the partisan zeal and the desire to be the first to publish.

The echo chamber is no longer your friend and is simply making you look silly at this point.

Wait for the process to play out; this West Wing fantasy playing in all your heads isn't healthy...

 

NEW YORK/WASHINGTON, Jan 18 (Reuters) - Special Counsel Robert Mueller's office on Friday disputed key elements of a media report that President Donald Trump directed his former lawyer to lie to Congress about a Moscow real estate deal, raising questions about a story that has dominated U.S. news coverage for the past 24 hours.

The point is not to think, but to spin signs and walk up and down the street wearing a sandwich board ad.

 

I keep thinking that liberals would finally wise up and realize they've been duped as pawns for years......but then I snap back into reality. Any such realization would require critical self thinking abilities which they seem to not have.

 

I don't believe this matter has yet been closed. Reading Mueller's office "disputed key elements of a media report" is not saying that the base facts of the report aren't true. I find that what Mueller's office didn't say is more interesting than what they did say. I suggest we all change our diapers and wait to see how this ends.

 

The big question liberals/progressives/socialists should be asking themselves:

Is there, in fact, fake news leaks coming from partisan Democratic Party investigators on Mueller's team seeking to influence public opinion?

Or did Buzz Feed simply make the whole thing up?

 

Incorrect, according to the Washington Post.

“Mueller’s denial, according to people familiar with the matter, aims to make clear that NONE of the statements in the Buzzfeed story are accurate.”

But then again, I applaud your ability to question a mainstream 'news' provider...

 

Heck, with the track record of Trump, I'd suggest skepticism of anything he says at this point since quite often his cries of fake news turn out to be lies.
For example, he said reports he had a hand in writing the Trump Tower denial letter were fake news only to find out he was lying........again.

 

Admit it. You got whomped again by jumping all over something which had convince you that this was the end of Trump.

 

What makes you think it isn't?

 

I have came to no conclusion whatsoever, because I don't jump on ever little story.

 

Unless they proclaim Don's innocents of all things.

 

What's reassuring is that Mueller corrected the record. I normally don't read Buzzfeed.

 

Show where I have done that.

 

My not wanting to take the time to go through your old posts doesn't mean you don't defend Don about everything.....all the time. Stop pretending...........or kidding yourself.

 

I don't defend Trump against everything. End of story.

 

Right, wink.

 

There are two “current events” on the front page that are from right wing satire sites currently.
Even after being shown as false it is still being discussed as fact.

The left is desperate to get rid of trump and stop his agenda
The right are just liars

 

If I defended everything Trump does, I would have to read everything you write and that would be a total waste of time.

 

Leftist haven’t been able to breath easy for awhile now. They’ continue to be fooled because they are fools.

 

Of course you should be skeptical, of any president actually. And government in general.

But the frenzied echo-chamber behavior parroting discredited news sources day after day isn't a good look for anyone and takes away most of any credibility you might have outside your fellow zealots.

You guys have become the mirror image of the Trump zealots who defend the guy regardless...

 

In Lee's world, if you don't agree with his echo chamber and are not demanding a Trump impeachment immediately, you are a zealous Trump supporter...

 

Hardly anyone reads BuzzFeed.

But that doesn't stop the usual Democratic Party operatives posing as mainstream media 'journalists' from jumping onboard and parroting the fake news they provide.

 

And boom!

Just like that most of our liberal/progressive/socialist friends have adjusted their blinders, pretending that the BuzzFeed scandal never occurred.

By Wednesday they'll be wringing out their undergarments over the latest BuzzFeed/CNN/MNSBC partisan nonsense against Trump, telling us his impeachment is imminent.

Rinse and repeat, and God forbid any of you using your critical thinking skills...
