J.D. Vance made one CNN host realize he just made the worst mistake of his life
The media is completely in the tank for Kamala Harris.
It’s the most egregious example of media bias in campaign history.
And J.D. Vance made one CNN host realize he just made the worst mistake of his life.
J.D. Vance crushes Jake Tapper on the Russia collusion hoax
No matter what happens on November 5, U.S. Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH) comes out of the election as a winner.
Running mates usually don’t see their stock rise on the campaign since they normally play the difficult role of attack dog and by definition don’t present themselves in the most appealing manner to voters.
But Vance won the admiration of his conservatives for his knowledgeable yet relatable presentation in making the case for former President Donald Trump.
Vance crushed Minnesota Governor Tim Walz in their one debate.
And he regularly appears on left-wing media outlets and swats away the hosts’ pro-Democrat Party talking points with ease.
A highly emotional Jake Tapper of CNN learned that lesson the hard way when Vance called out him and CNN to his face about the network’s role in fanning the flames of the Russia collusion hoax.
Vance told Tapper that CNN lacked integrity because of how it promoted a hoax that damaged the country.
“Ask yourself a basic question about network integrity. You guys talked about the Russia hoax nonstop,” Vance began.
“The FBI was investigating it and so we covered it,” Tapper replied.
Vance immediately pushed back saying CNN didn’t just cover the Russia hoax, CNN weaponized the hoax to try and turn the American people against Trump using a lie.
“So, you took the words of unnamed FBI agents and put them on the network as if they were the gospel…A viewer of your network would have believed Trump and Putin would have conspired in 2016. That was totally and preposterously false,” Vance shot back.
Tapper then falsely claimed what Vance said was false.
“What you just said was false. We covered an FBI investigation. I don’t know why you want to talk about the FBI investigation,” Tapper pushed back.
Vance obliterated Tapper’s revisionist history pointing out that CNN took every leak and rumor from the Deep State as gospel in the hopes the American people would demand Congress remove Trump from office.
“You covered it in a way that gave credence to anonymous sources and accusations. You did it yourself. Your network did it!” Vance exclaimed.
Russian collusion hoax origins exposed
The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway backed up Vance and used an anecdote from her personal experience with Tapper and CNN to prove their complicity in this scam.
Hemingway described a scene where she appeared on a CNN panel the day Tapper and three other CNN reporters broke the story of then-FBI Director James Comey briefing Trump on the existence of the Steele dossier.
Tapper’s CNN colleague Jim Sciutto – who worked in the Obama administration – was starting to say that Director of National Intelligence James Clapper knew the leak about the dossier came from the intelligence community when Hemingway observed Tapper squeeze Sciutto’s wrist in a gesture designed to get him to stop talking.
“Sciutto said that he was pretty sure Clapper knew the leak came from the intelligence community because …, he said, trailing off as he rolled his hands suggestively and somewhat like a football referee very slowly calling a false start,” Hemingway wrote.
“He said it for all to hear, though I’m not sure anyone else other than Jake Tapper, who he was sitting to the right of, and I heard and understood. Tapper squeezed Sciutto’s left wrist the way my mom used to squeeze my wrist at church when I was being too loud. I interpreted this message roughly as ‘stop talking you idiot,’” Hemingway added.
Tapper knew it was the Deep State that fed him the story as a way to frame Trump.
Sciutto was in the process of pulling back the curtain when Tapper cut him off.
