trying to evacuate troops from Afghanistan when they were hit with a terrorist bomb.

I won't hold my breath.

As far as CNN "obeying in advance" of the probable Ellison take over, they were headed that way long ago with the free airtime for the swiftboating of Kerry, giving free airtime to the swift pukes ad as a "news story", playing it almost 24/7.

They also were right on top of Howard Dean after the Iowa Primary, trying to present him as unhinged.

It won't take CNN long to go full MAGA. The days of Ted Turner are long gone.
