CNN Host Kasie Hunt Defends Kicking Off Trump Spox Mid-Interview, Gets Ratio’d Into Oblivion

What I saw was a young news-reader trying to look good in the eyes of the big names of her network. What I remembered was the ambush of Dana Loesch at a CNN TV special after the shooting. TD

“LOL – Everything she said was true – and you showed zero respect for your guest. And please quit pretending to be fair – you’re a paid propagandist for the Democrat party,” the popular meme account Cattured replied.

. . . "Another astute commenter pointed out that, while Hunt was defending the impartiality of her network and colleagues, her own Twitter header is a picture of her and President Biden.

Jake is best known for telling his producers to cut a live feed of Trump trying to tell his viewers what Jake didn’t want them to hear. Now it’s Kasie telling her producers to cut a live feed of someone trying to tell her viewers what Kasie doesn’t want them to hear. That’s CNN.

. . ."Leavitt herself replied in kind. “You cut off my microphone for bringing up the debate moderator’s history of anti-Trump lies,” she tweeted in response. “This proved our point that President Trump will not be treated fairly on Thursday. Yet he is still willing to go into this 3-1 fight to bring his winning message to the American people, and he will win,” Leavitt concluded." . . .

CNN Defends Debate Hosts from Critics: 'Respected Veteran Journalists' (breitbart.com)   "CNN defended its debate co-hosts from critics on Monday after they came under fire for being biased against former President Donald Trump.

The statement came after the Trump campaign ripped CNN for abruptly ending its interview with Trump campaign national press secretary Karoline Leavitt. CNN’s Kasie Hunt, a former MSNBC host, suddenly ended the interview when Leavitt highlighted CNN’s Jake Tapper’s long history of criticizing Trump.

Tapper is co-hosting Thursday’s first presidential debate with Dana Bash. Both are critics of Trump.

They suggested Trump is a liar, was tougher on Democrats than Putin, pushed Russia propaganda, used rhetoric similar to Adolf Hitler, pushed falsehoods “fast and furious,” “tried to kill democracy once. He’ll do it again,” is an antisemite, could cause a civil war, and blamed Trump’s rhetoric for a New Zealand shooting." . . .

Kasie Hunt's Husband Called Out for Celebrating Trump's Mugshot, Reacts Poorly – RedState  . . ."As usual, the left can throw the punches but can't take them. He put the post out there for the public to see; all the White House Correspondent did was point out that the post existed, and Rivera got defensive over that. 

"The bias seems to run in the family, and that is OK, but the issue is they claim to be nonpartisan and unbiased, yet they are the exact opposite. 

"Going back to the credibility of Kasie Hunt and her network, CNN hasn't been as critical of President Biden but claims to be in the middle of the political spectrum. They are not as biased as MSNBC, but they definitely are not in the middle, and they prefer Biden over Trump. 

"Yes, they bring guests who are Democrats and Republicans; however, the overwhelming majority of anchors on the network want to make Trump look as bad as possible and Biden look golden. 

"When it comes to conservative media, they don't hide their bias. The liberal media should learn to do the same and stop pretending to be nonpartisan." . . .

Scarf people on campus should appreciate this: Israeli woman sexually abused by Hamas captor

Is Rashida Tlaib showing repentence over Hamas acts? Naaaa.

(35) Influencer news (quora.com)  Quoting:  Why Amit Soussana, 40 years old Israeli lawyer, was forced to share for the whole world private details of the horrific sexual assault done to her by Ham*s?

Because without sharing it publicly, "human rights activists" don't believe us.

On October 7, Amit was kidnapped while hiding - with a fever - in the shelter of her home. Seven Ham*s monsters were needed to drag her to Gaza, she was fighting them bravely.

Amit was held alone in a child’s bedroom, chained by her left ankle. Sometimes, the guard would enter, sit beside her on the bed, lift her shirt and touch her.

Around Oct. 24, the guard, who called himself Muhammad, attacked her. Early that morning, Muhammad unlocked her chain and left her in the bathroom. After she undressed and began washing herself in the bathtub, Muhammad returned and stood in the doorway, holding a pistol.

“He came towards me and shoved the gun at my forehead,” Amit recalled during eight hours of interviews with The New York Times in mid-March.

After hitting Ms. Soussana and forcing her to remove her towel, Muhammad groped her, sat her on the edge of the bathtub and hit her again. He dragged her at gunpoint back to the child’s bedroom, a room covered in images of the cartoon character SpongeBob SquarePants.

“Then he, with the gun pointed at me, forced me to commit  a sexual act on him,” Ms. Soussana said.

Is it enough details for you, human rights activists, or will you ask where is the video?

Today, Amit spoke at the White House regarding being s*xually assaulted as a hostage: “Being in captivity means having no control over your mind, body or soul. You have absolutely no control over what happens to you… The s*xual assault I experienced should never happen to any human being under any circumstances.”  End quote.


"Dr. Ahmad – a general practitioner, imam, and member of a prominent family in Gaza – secretly held three Israeli hostages captive in his home for six months, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday.

"Every day, Aljamal returned home from work to his son, daughter-in-law, grandchildren, and captives Almog Meir Jan, Andrey Kozlov, and Shlomi Ziv.

"According to the report, citing residents, it was an open secret within the Nuseirat camp that Aljamal’s family was associated with Hamas. Aljamal’s brother, Abdelrahman Aljamal, is a Hamas lawyer in Gaza. Nevertheless, the report stated that most did not know of the three hostages being held in a dark room in the family’s house." . . .

Get Ready for the Islamist Summer In American Cities, Fed By A Sense of Impunity From Consequences

 William A. Jacobson (legalinsurrection.com)

"Anti-Israel protesters have been unhinged and dangerous forever, but particularly since October 7.

"We have documented here dozens of times the intimidation tactics, including particularly on campuses. The lasting impact of the campus protests and encampments is that with only a small number of exceptions, there were no consequences to violating campus rules. We saw several universities pay ransom for the encampments to end without disrupting reunions and graduation. The sense of being able to act with impunity was evident in the smugness of the “From the River to the Sea” crowd.

"Woven into this fabric are faculty who encourage and defend the misconduct and administrators who are scared.

"So too when it comes to the criminal laws. At Columbia, protesters including many non-students took over and trashed a campus building, but most are having their charges dropped completely or reduced to diversion agreements whereby the charges are expunged if they stay out of trouble for a specified time.

"This societal weakness will encourage even more agressive action.

"Anti-Israel activists, particularly in big cities, are getting more aggressive by the day, as they realize the majority of Americans are not with them, and Israel has the determination to keep fighting. Protesters are becoming hoodlums." . . .

Voters Skeptical Of CNN, Anchors Tapper And Bash, Heading Into Trump/Biden Debate

  I&I/TIPP Poll – Issues & Insights (issuesinsights.com)

"The first 2024 presidential debate is on the way, but already controversy has emerged over the television network that will conduct the presidential face-off and those selected to ask the questions. Some Americans, it turns out, aren’t exactly thrilled about CNN anchors serving as moderators for the debate, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows.

"The national online poll, taken from May 29-31, included 1,675 registered voters who were asked the following: “CNN will host the first general election presidential debate on June 27, 2024, moderated by Jake Tapper and Dana Bash. What is your opinion of the debate moderators and the host?”

"The possible answers, given for CNN, Jake Tapper and Dana Bash, were “very favorable,” “somewhat favorable,” “not very favorable,” “not at all favorable,” and “not sure.” The poll has a +/-2.5 percentage-point margin of error.

"First, CNN. It was viewed favorably by a small plurality of voters, at 45% favorable versus 36% not favorable. Another 20% were “not sure.” So a total of 56% either didn’t approve of CNN or were unsure." 

"The liberal media has normalized comparisons to Adolf Hitler since Trump became president and Tapper was no exception.

"In December, Tapper evoked the Nazi dictator while condemning Trump's comments about illegal immigrants "poisoning the blood of our country."

"With four weeks until Ohioans cast the nation’s first votes in the 2024 presidential race, the dehumanizing rhetoric of Adolf Hitler is once again alive and well on the national political stage. This time, of course, in the United States. This time, given life by former president and current Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump, whose thoughts on immigrants were made shockingly crystal clear over the weekend," Tapper said before playing the clip of Trump's remarks. "If you were to open up a copy of Hitler’s ‘Mein Kampf,’ you would find the Nazi leader describing the mixing of non-Germans with Germans as poisoning. The Jew, Hitler wrote, quote, 'poisons the blood of others.' " . . .

"Individuals. Because men have periods too! Duh! Beto may not have gotten that memo, but Cory Booker and Julián Castro did. …"  See for yourself!


. . ."I had to laugh at this… but it is sad at the same time that (a) people think this is a normal thing, and (b) watching this little girl struggle with the FACT that a man could never menstruate or have periods (cramps, mood swings, headaches, tender breasts, bloating, various food cravings, etc). Apparently she even did a Google search on the topic… how much do you want to bet this household leans progressively left.

"As the left continues to double down on the weaponization of government against its political opponents, the frame for the 2024 election emerges clearly. The lawfare is so unprecedented in our republic, so offensive in both its particulars and its totality to historic norms, and such an outrageous assault on our constitutional democracy, that the critical question for every American, especially those on the left, necessarily becomes this:

"Sure looked like it happened. But it didn’t, I guess.

"Presidential press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was asked about a series of recent videos that have shown Biden apparently wandering off, freezing up, or both. She responded by labeling them "cheap fakes,” and calling them “misinformation” and  “disinformation."

Unity to Victimhood: How Division Became a Political Tool

  David T. Cloft - AFNN

The 1913 Gettysburg reunion offers a poignant lesson: even the deepest divisions can be bridged through mutual respect and a willingness to understand the other side. Yet, instead of following this example, we’ve allowed historical grievances to be manipulated for political ends.

"In the summer of 1913, Gettysburg witnessed an extraordinary event: veterans from the Union and Confederate armies gathered to mark the 50th anniversary of the infamous battle. These men, who had once faced each other in deadly combat, embraced and reminisced about their shared past. They exchanged mementos, sought out those who had once been their enemies, and even buried hatchets—literally. This remarkable display of reconciliation stands in stark contrast to today’s culture, where division and animosity have become potent political tools.

"During the Gettysburg reunion, the veterans’ interactions were characterized by mutual respect and a shared sense of history. Men who had once fought to the death shared stories and laughed together, recognizing their common humanity. This was a time when even a Union soldier could jest with a Confederate about the outcome of the war without rekindling old hatreds. Such acts of forgiveness and camaraderie seem almost alien in our current era, where every historical grievance is dredged up and weaponized for political gain.

"Today’s culture often seems to revel in tearing down rather than building up. Monuments and statues, which once served as reminders of our complex history, are being toppled in a frenzy of moral absolutism. This practice does not heal old wounds but instead reopens them, creating a culture of perpetual victimhood. It’s a shameful misuse of our collective history, turning it into a battleground for ideological warfare rather than a foundation for mutual understanding and progress.

"What’s more baffling is the irony that no one alive today fought in the Civil War or owned a slave. Yet, many act as though they are directly wronged by these long-past events, despite living in an era of unprecedented luxury and freedom. This manufactured victimhood is not only disingenuous but also a slap in the face to those who genuinely suffered and struggled in history. It’s high time we acknowledged that the majority of people today enjoy a standard of living far beyond what most humans throughout history could even imagine." . . .

"Amazing historical movie footage from 1913 and 1938 of the 50th and 75th anniversaries of the 1863 Battle of Gettysburg during the U.S. Civil War. This video is not listed for the purpose of making any type of statement regarding the U.S. Civil War. It is listed for the specific purpose of presenting a visual and auditory glimpse of life 100 years ago. It would be greatly appreciated if you do not post comments regarding personal or political views regarding the U.S. Civil War." The voice of Shelby Foote.

Sarcasm Alert! White House Asks Migrants To Hold Off On Raping And Murdering Any More Americans Until After Election

 Babylon Bee


WASHINGTON, D.C. — With the presidential race heating up for the summer campaign season, the White House asked migrants to hold off on raping and murdering any more Americans until after the election.
"As more and more incidents of violent criminal acts perpetrated by migrants have drawn attention to the Biden administration's immigration policies, Karine Jean-Pierre politely asked migrants to wait until after the November election before carrying out any more horrific rapes and murders.
" 'We'd really appreciate it," said the gay and black White House Press Secretary who is black and gay. "While we understand that many of you are eager to continue raping and murdering American citizens, we do ask that you wait until after November 5 to do any more. We thank you for your patience."
"Though public outrage continued to mount as more violent acts made news headlines across the country, Jean-Pierre emphasized the need for discretion while the election played out. "Everyone likes to make summer plans," she said. "But we hope our incoming migrants can understand the importance of postponing their raping and murdering plans until the election is over. Otherwise, they may end up actually facing consequences for their actions, and none of us want that to happen."
"When asked whether migrants who commit violent crimes would face any repercussions if Biden is re-elected, Jean-Pierre pulled the fire alarm and evacuated the building.
"At publishing time, White House officials informed incoming migrants that for every vote for Joe Biden they cast in November, they would be allowed to commit one free heinous act against an innocent American citizen."

Two men who were seen on surveillance footage with a 12-year-old girl before her body was found in a Houston creek earlier this week were arrested Thursday in her death, police said. One of the suspects tried to jump off a balcony and escape before officers caught him, a neighbor told CBS affiliate KHOU-TV." . . .

Fox News Steps Up to Make Sure You Won't Have to Turn on CNN to Watch the Upcoming Debate

 Adelle Nazarian (westernjournal.com)  

Many cable news viewers have increasingly grown tired of CNN’s biased coverage against Trump, which could’ve had the unintended secondary effect of pushing viewers right to Fox. 

"Fox News Media announced on Thursday that its flagship news network will provide comprehensive coverage of the upcoming CNN presidential debate between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump on June 27, 2024, thereby ensuring that viewers can tune into Fox to watch the debate.

“FOX News Media will present extensive live coverage of the CNN presidential debate between candidates President Joe Biden (D) and former President Donald Trump (R) on Thursday, June 27th in Atlanta, Georgia. Special programming will be available across all of FOX News Media’s key platforms, including FOX News Channel (FNC), FOX Business Network (FBN), FOX News Digital, FOX News Audio and FOX Nation,” a release marking the announcement read.

"Fox News Channel has consistently dominated cable news ratings and has surpassed CNN in viewership for many years. In May, Fox  occupied nearly all of the top 100 telecasts and posted double-digit viewer increases while CNN experienced its lowest-rated month in primetime since 1991.

"Fox News’s announcement that it will simulcast the historic face-off will allow viewers to tune into Fox without having to turn on CNN." . . .
