    “Do you think Putin will be going to The Miss Universe Pageant in November in Moscow – if so, will he become my new best friend?”

    1. @Ali Durand Is it worth cheating to save democracy? Is it worth ignoring suspicious activity to feel a sense of winning? Do you understand hating someone based on politics is bigotry right? Will you admit you are a purposefully blinded bigot for democratic policy? Thinking on that, is that what you really want to be? A bigot?

    2. Media mobs didn’t even have one word on SPIES & LIES allegations linked to Russia collusion hoax on which they flooded and drowned brainwashed Americans with fake news and conspiracy in last 4 years

  2. John can you do an ‘Reality Check’ expose on congressional insider trading and the rules that (dont) govern them?

    1. @Mark I’m intelligent enough to know a court filing isn’t a report from Durham, so…where’s the report?

    2. @Mark no, it’s a court filing, that’s why it’s called a court filing and not a report. Are you really that stupid not to know the difference?

    1. You know what really made me laugh – they showed trump saying “Putin won’t go into ukraine” and they leave out the part that Putin didn’t move an inch under trump !!! They invaded under Obama and now under biden …. Hahahaha wait what ? And they used that as a good talking point for democrats??? I’m sooo confused how anyone could be this dumb not to notice that and notice how pathetic cnn is and how little they think of their viewers- they know that anyone watching cnn is sooo mentally broken and hates trump that they can just say anything and people will clap and cheer. …. Think about it- they just showed and used a clip from trump to try and make an example of how trump is with Russia by saying that but no one notices that Russia didn’t move or say a word when trump was in power, but now that it’s Biden and Biden family got like $15 million from Russia and another 20 million from Ukraine – and Putin is invading and shows Biden no respect …. All of that is reasons for cnn to say trump is with russia!!?? Hahaha Jesus Christ

  3. Senators Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, John Neely Kennedy of Louisiana, Steve Daines of Montana, North Dakota’s John Hoeven, Jerry Moran of Kansas, South Dakota’s John Thune, and Rep. Kay Granger of Texas were among the eight republican lawmakers who celebrated America’s Day of Independence in Moscow in 2018.”

    1. @Swift Justice One day soon, democrats will have to hang their heads in shame and as the famous song writer poet Tom MacDonald said “We are all ashamed of you”!

    1. @chad l
      Your close. Someone is “deflecting”. If your right, someone must have had a Crystal ball to have known that a deflection would be needed way back when Durham started to investigate what the IG originally identified. CNN will spend hours speculating what Rudy Giuliani may say to the January 6 committee, or they will tell you that they have “uncovered” evidence that just happened to have been publicly released back in December of 2020. But not a word about The Clinton campaign committing espionage on a sitting Presidents computer servers.

    2. @Lee Neal the idiot who doesn’t know the truth are the ones who “voted” for Biden who sat in the basement:
      Biden can’t speak coherently,
      fell down the AF1 stairs 3 times,
      sniffing on little girls,
      says racists things to the entire black community “you ain’t black” if you didn’t vote for him,
      choosing federal judges based Race and Gender, not merit
      killed civilians and friendly fire in Afghanistan,
      border crisis,
      caused gas prices to go up,
      lied about his law school academic accomplishments.
      North Korea starts launching rockets again.
      Trade deficits going to continue to increase.
      Record voter turnout in 2020 Biden got the most votes and you lefties believe in voter suppression is a big problem and push to eliminate the most basic vote security and ID to validate votes.
      As far as stealing elections, I don’t know if it really happened, there’s reasons to be skeptical but no actual meaningful investigation, all court cases was dismissed either for “moot” or “lack of standing”. Which is side Stepping the issues.
      What truth did I left out about the incompetence of Biden and his party? STFU troll.

  4. Geez, I wonder if the Kremlin included a blurb on the Durham “report” with instructions to their troll army this morning?

    1. @Lucas Blair Troops on the border coinciding is no accident. Tucker had an ” EXTRAVEGANZA” tonight. I turned him on ready to be reminded what clockwork looks like when you are well paid.

  5. Will the Gop also support russia taking back Alaska as putin feels the deal was not fair since oil was discovered 50 years after the deal was made.

    1. Does no one on CNN know or care to mention that our current president and his son was paid tens of millions from both Russia and Ukraine ?!! How is that not relevant?? Jesus Christ I’m embarrassed for cnn. Also how did jo one notice that Putin invaded under Obama and now biden – not under trump !???? Hahahahww come on… I voted for Biden but this is pathetic and showing trump video saying “.Putin isn’t goin into Ukraine …” – AND HE DIDNT DO IT UNDER TRUNP AND THET IS A NEGATIVE ???? Hahahahahahahaha

  6. I like how you clip videos without using the whole story. Most news networks Don’t report…they should be called artist because you paint great pictures. No matter the party, report not force thoughts on me. Almost as good as the extended car warranty stuff.

    1. Anyone who’s been paying even a modicum of attention knows what’s being referenced and what those people are about. There is no mystery here. There’s no innocence or misconception. They are as easy to read as one of Trump’s pop-up books.

  7. Haven’t been on YouTube in awhile and what do you know, one of the first vids I see is CNN talking about Trump. It’s like I never left lol.
