HILARIOUS: What Kathy Griffin REALLY Did With Her Trump Stunt


The Federalist Papers  Robert Gehl reports that self-described “comic” Kathy Griffin has been fired by CNN.
Griffin came under fire for posing for a gruesome photo showing her holding the severed head of President Donald Trump.
It enraged the public, none other than Trump himself; terrified his son and even infuriated the Satanists. The Secret Service also decided to may Ms. Griffin a visit.
At first, CNN reacted by calling the photo “disgusting and offensive,” saying they were “evaluating our New Year’s Eve coverage.”
But only after the global firestorm did CNN announce they were completely cutting ties with Griffin, namely her appearance on their New Year’s Eve program.

Forget Russian Collusion. We Are Russia.

Roger L. Simon  "What's a citizen to do when he or she no longer trusts the intelligence agencies of his or her country?
"That's the terrifying situation evolving from the leaks and counter-leaks surrounding the various investigations grouped under the rubric "Russia" -- though it appears to have less and less to do with Russia and more and more to do with us. We are Russia.
"Rowan Scarborough reported in the Washington Times Monday:
What caused the Barack Obama administration to begin investigating the Donald Trump campaign last summer has come into clearer focus following a string of congressional hearings on Russian interference in the presidential election.
It was then-CIA director John O. Brennan, a close confidant of Mr. Obama’s, who provided the information — what he termed the “basis” — for the FBI to start the counterintelligence investigation last summer. Mr. Brennan served on the former president’s 2008 presidential campaign and in his White House.
Mr. Brennan told the House Intelligence Committee on May 23 that the intelligence community was picking up tidbits on Trump associates making contacts with Russians. Mr. Brennan did not name either the Russians or the Trump people. He indicated he did not know what was said. 

Kathy Griffin should ask for royalties every time her picture shows up at anti-Trump rallies

She may apologize, but her picture with the Trump head cannot be unseen.

Kathy Griffin apologies for a joke that didn’t work  
Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrumpKathy Griffin should be ashamed of herself. My children, especially my 11 year old son, Barron, are having a hard time with this. Sick!
. . . "There is always the possibility that she will become some sort of martyr and hero to the most deranged among the TDS Cult. Maybe a one woman show off-Broadway?


"But for the rest of the nation, the sane seventy percent, Griffin has created an image that can’t be unseen, and that will serve as an icon of Trump Derangement Syndrome, visually embracing the methods of the Taliban, specifically calling to mind the video decapitation of Daniel Pearl. That sort of image operates on different parts of the brain than words.
"While she failed to be funny, Kathy Griffin still managed to create an immortal image, generating a meme – that on a fantasy level (for now) Trump haters in some ways resemble Islamists in their affinity for violence -- that will love on, perhaps even becoming the symbol of the extreme Trump hatred of our current era."

Kathy Griffin's bloody head of Trump  
"Lefties have engaged in hate-mongering for decades, but since the Bush II years, they have made it plain they are not thinking in terms of metaphors but rather of actually killing people they disagree with politically. Conservative writer Kurt Schlichter writes that the Left acts surprised or offended when the Right hates them back. They are intentionally pushing America to civil unrest. It’s entirely their fault."
Mika Censors Kathy Griffin News: “We’re not Talking about It. Too Gross. Not Worth Doing”  "If, say, Greg Gutfield had held up a realistic-looking severed head of the previous president, do you think Morning Joe would have refused to cover the story? But on today’s Morning Joe, when a panelist made reference to “the Kathy Griffin news,” Mika Brzezinski put her foot down:
“ 'We’re not talking about it. I’m sorry, it’s too gross. It’s just not worth doing.” . . .
Bloody awful: Liberals should swiftly condemn Kathy Griffin's disgusting anti-Trump photo shoot  "When Rep. Gabby Giffords was shot by a deranged man in 2011, conversation quickly turned to the blind hostility nurtured by some in talk radio, and specifically to a Sarah Palin-led political action committee graphic in which key congressional districts were in metaphoric crosshairs."

Trump Derangement Syndrome Takes a Grisly Turn  "We all know this, but it needs to be said. If someone had done anything like this to attack President Obama during the Obama years, the enraged outcries would have reverberated around the world and the swooning media would have pointed to a "climate of hate," indicting everyone on the right for the outrage. Of course, nothing like this ever happened during the Obama years because people on the Right aren't as bat-guano insane as people on the Left.
"Enter alleged "comedienne" Kathy Griffin."

. . . "But it's only the latest of many unhinged celebrity expressions of Trump Derangement Syndrome:
"The man has been in office for less than five months. Give them time -- eventually they'll get around to producing an assassination film like they did for President Bush."

Study finds ABC, CBS, NBC barely cover Venezuela's left-wing catastrophe, avoid word 'socialism'

Lifezette  "Out of approximately 50,000 total evening news stories on ABC, CBS and NBC combined in the last four years, just 25 have covered the ongoing crisis in socialist Venezuela, according to a Media Research Center study published Tuesday.

"After Venezuela’s former socialist president, Hugo Chávez, passed away in March 2013, the country has spiraled into economic disaster and civil chaos. So far in 2017, more than 50 Venezuelans have been killed during protests against current Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his socialist policies. Many Venezuelans are starving due to shortages of food and other essentials. The country’s inflation rate is set to surpass 700 percent and 25 percent of Venezuelans will be unemployed.
“ 'The few times they have managed to cover the widespread poverty, starvation, and government oppression … they somehow find ways to do that without [saying] the word ‘socialism.'”
“ 'Yet the Big Three evening newscasts have tried to pretend this crisis does not exist, offering virtually no coverage as the situation has deteriorated over the past four years,” MRC Research Analyst Mike Ciandella wrote [1].
“ 'The networks have also been reluctant to attach the ‘socialist’ label to Venezuela’s government, and have utterly failed to criticize liberal politicians and celebrities who have praised the Chávez and Maduro regimes,” Ciandella added." . . .

Now That The Secret Service Is Investigating, Kathy Griffin Is Suddenly Sorry…

Weasel Zippers  "As we just reported, the Secret Service is now investigating Kathy Griffin for her beading picture of
"Her first response to the furor was defiance and justifying her actions, that she had a right to mock Trump."

Soon to appear on "Courageous Women of Hollywood" or something.
