Vindman's lawyer requests Fox News retract guest's allegation about espionage | TheHill


"During the segment, host Laura Ingraham told John Yoo — who was a top attorney for the George W. Bush administration — "We have a U.S. national security official who is advising Ukraine, while working inside the White House, apparently against the president’s interest, and usually, they spoke in English."

"Isn’t that kind of an interesting angle on this story?” Ingraham asked Yoo.

Yoo replied: "I found that astounding. Some people might call that espionage."


Are there any idiots left in our country that think the Republican Party is "pro" military? Or even "pro" Christian values?
 

Democrats accuse republicans of crimes they did not commit but they go ape when one of their own is accused of possible espionage just for deliberately single-handedly undermining the president's foreign policies in Ukraine. Go figure.
 
I checked the headlines after Sondland's nuclear hand grenade yesterday.

Everyone, everyone, was saying Sondland confirmed quid pro quo.

Fox?

Fox saying he "hinted" at "alleged quid pro quo."

First hand man, directed by the POTUS' personal lawyer, acting on BEHALF OF and at the EXPRESS ORDER OF the President, and Fox spins the propaganda machine into full effect.

Totally unacceptable. Fox News should be shut the **** down.
 

Somehow, I doubt you share that outrage over the many folks who assured us via MSM "news" sources that Trump had illegally colluded with Russia to meddle in the 2016 election.
 
Theres no reason why fox should retract a guests opinion about that. If we are gonna go down the road of tetracting opinions the lame stream media has a lot of retracting to do.

Of course I did. I mocked Madcow NIGHTLY and never bought into the notion Trump colluded with Russia. If you look up my post history, I explicitly stated Trump was too inept to collude with Putin and Russia.

So do you share my outrage?

He was under investigation for that very thing. This is not the same

or, you know, ask Fox to retract a lie.

didn't you say you believe in the 10 Commandments? or is that a part time thing?

Not really, because these "news" shows are known to spew confirmation bias to their loyal viewers - for the express purpose of gaining ratings which are required to get advertising revenue. The only way to stop this madness is for folks to no longer patronize those grossly biased "news" outlets/shows.
 

At this stage I disagree with you. At some point, "News" needs to not be allowed to be used for fake partisan opinion shows - full stop - on all stations.
 

John Yoo again? He and Laura Ingraham have become caricatures of smart adults. Like Rudy.

The way the right is attacking a civil servant who gave up years of his life, and his health, for this country is just disgusting. But the Trump Panty Sniffers just love it. Must not say anything about God Trump.

I hope Vindman sues every piece of **** that has been attacking and lying about him.
 
Non-story.

:shrug:

He stopped believing in the Ten Commandments and now only believes in the Golden Rule - "Thou shalt adore and worship the second coming, Donald J. Trump"

That is a wonderful goal, yet who, exactly, would serve as the new "ministry of truth" and how would that be compatible with freedom of speech? At the point where we had such a "ministry of truth" to make sure that we get only the "official" version of any "news" story that bias would only get worse.

That is because, as it now stands, most media bias is accomplished by simple omission. If "news" about X remains unreported then did it ever really happen? For example, where is the "news" story on precisely what Hunter Biden was being paid more than the POTUS to do for Burisma?
 

More confirmation of the unhinged, anti-Constitution attitudes of people on the far left.

Meanwhile, as to what was confirmed...

 

We are dealing with very, very bad people. I've been debating for awhile if we should use their mafia tactics back at them or not. I would like to think we could rise above what Republicans are now doing but I'm not sure you can beat a mafia that way.

Christians who support all this corruption and Donald Trump, a huge crook and adulterer who doesn't pay his bills, baffle me.

I just keep calling them part time Christians which means they're not Christian at all.
 

No, I mean the moniker "News."

Any pundit should not be allowed to call what they report "news" when it's nothing but gibberish and hot air.

No real Christian supports a man who has no use for Christianity, broke too many of the Ten Commandments, doesn't know thing one about the Bible, never attended church, boasted that he won't apologize to God for his sins, supported partial birth abortion, and who wanted his own baby aborted so his wife didn't find out about his affair.

These people are fake Christians.

Most now call that spewing of biased opinion "news analysis", yet I agree with you that is not universally done.

As Bill Clinton used to say - I feel your pain.

There is not much that we can do about it except not to patronize those sources, thus depriving them of that all important advertising revenue.
 

Which is why I get my news from Allsides.com and use youtube for reporting.
