Jake Tapper/CNN vs Chuck Todd/MSNBC - Truth reporting on a Trump tweet

Jake Tapper and Chuck Todd both led their show today with the Russia hack/Putin led the way story and Trump's tweet on the matter.
They both read the full Trump tweet
"If Russia, or some other entity, was hacking, why did the White House wait so long to act? Why did they only complain after Hillary lost?"
Jake Tapper's next words were 'The answer, they didn't." and ran video of Jake reporting the story when it broke back in early October.
Chuck Todd reads same tweet and the next words out his mouth?
"It's actually a fairly important question. One we all need to find an answer to."

Congratulations Chuck Todd!
You win the Joseph Goebbels Media Stooge of the Day Award!
We're going to have to leave it here Chuck....

Sources at the Kremlin are calling Trump's Cabinet picks a "Dream Team" for Russia

Exact quote
Just reported by Richard Engel on MSNBC
So at least Vladimir Putin is happy with Trump's government
Electoral College electors, are you listening to this?

December 10, 2016

Well, Electoral College Electors, turns out a vote for Trump is a vote for Putin. The ball's in

your court folks.
Read your Washington Post electors. Talk to the CIA.
Save the country or destroy the country, the choice is yours.
But know this, this single vote is how you'll be remembered for the rest of your lives and beyond.

The idea of Sarah Palin becoming Secretary of Veteran's Affairs seems totally bat-shit crazy until

you remember that Donald Trump will be President.
Nowadays crazy gets graded on a curve.

At this point if I was Reince Preibus, Mike Pence and the rest of the GOP leadership I wouldn't even

show Donald Trump the real Oval Office.
I'd tell him the waiting room down the hall with the X-Box and flat screen TV is the Situation Room, give him a copy of CALL OF DUTY, and tell him he's fighting ISIS.

"A secret meeting between billionaire Hillary Clinton supporter Mark Cuban and Satan-admiring Trump adviser Steve Bannon took place on Tuesday afternoon at the King Cole Bar in Midtown’s St. Regis Hotel. TMZ broke the news when it published this creeper shot of the duo on Tuesday night. ... Cuban has yet to comment on the meeting and told one reporter that he would not be doing so."

Mark Cuban can go away now.

Robert Reich: California is Trumplands nemesis

California is Trumpland’s nemesis
"At the one end of the scale are Kansas and Texas, with among the nation’s lowest taxes, least regulations and lowest wages.
At the other end is California, with among the nation’s highest taxes, especially on the wealthy; toughest regulations, particularly when it comes to the environment; most ambitious health care system, that insures more than 12 million poor Californians, in partnership with Medicaid; and high wages.
So according to conservative doctrine, Kansas and Texas ought to be booming, and California ought to be in the pits.
Actually, it’s just the opposite."

On Inauguration Day there needs tobe a general strike and marching in the streets across the country

In every city across the nation people need to turn out and show Trump and his cronies, while he is getting sworn in, that we will not sit and accept his time in office as normal.
The evening news needs to cut from his swearing in to millions of people marching peacefully in the streets from sea to sea.
It's his party and we need to crash it.

About ZonkerHarris

Nixon was a fucking crook. As a teenager I marched on the UN in 1982 with a million other people demanding we get rid of the threat of nuclear weapons hanging over our heads. Since then I've worked to get Democrats elected like John Aristotle Phillips, known as the A-Bomb Kid when he ran for Congress against Stuart McKinney in CT in the 80's (we lost twice) through the Obama campaign in 2008 and 2012. I want to legalize cannabis, reform our prison for profit system, cut our military budget, get out of Afghanistan and push solar energy panels into every building in the USA.
