He wasn’t guilty according to the FBI agents who questioned him.

Sorry, but that isn't what the he was charged with... He was charged with lying to federal investigators.

I'm going to put you down as a "Yes", that you are ok with law enforcement asking questions of people for the sole purpose of manufacturing a crime... because that is exactly what the FBI did.

What’s the penalty for lying to the VP?

What about it, my friend? We are laughing at the credulity of you running around yelling "we have a Blaze, we have a Blaze."



Now you project your almost falsity onto me? And you mischaracterize what WaPo says? Your argumentum ad ignorantum is noted.

So the guy that won't discuss the substance of what Todd did, by attacking the messenger wants to dispute the second source with an argument from ignorance.

That's so ironic, its amazing your post didn't just implode on itself. The ignorance is on your end--- NBC News apologizes for '''inaccurately''' quoting William Barr - ABC News ----NBC already apologized. Ready to admit they did what they already apologized for or are you such a gullible foot soldier you still believe the now defunct narrative?

Your false implications of what Todd said is on your head, not mine. The ignorance of your comments are all your own. And where NBC did get it wrong in minor details, it apologized. So are you ready to admit that you mischaracterized an incident into a tempest in your teapot?

I said blaze three times to clown those of you complaining about it as source and have since provided 2 other sources that support the point of view being presented. You insist on upholding a point of view that has been demonstrated as being false.

The tempest in the teapot is of your own making. Maybe dump out the bull**** and your tea won't stink.

Ah, ok. Then I hope you won't mind if I put you down for a "yes" for "person who refuses to acknowledge events occurring right before them".

Probably the same penalty for a person who enjoys asking irrelevant questions when they don't like the facts right in front of them.

The fact is that you said he was guilty of lying to the VP. Seemed relevant to you until just a little while ago. So what’s the sentence for that crime?

This is incredible. NBC can admit that the interview was edited in a deceptive way and apologize, but a hack still thinks the edited video was accurate.

Meh. It wasn't decetive given Barr's utterly corrupt nature. Deal with it.

The fact is you mischaracterized what was said and written.

This is the latest tactic of the swamp. This explains why left wing states, which had the highest death tolls, would like to keep the country shut down and perpetuate hardship through the election. They will try to blame Trump with another round of lies. The hope is if they can regain power, they can make the crimes of Obama-gate go away.

Trump has countered this latest swamp tactic by saying he will not bail out Democrat run states, who had lots of pre-virus debt, due to bad management. The foot dragging states are breaking ranks and are starting to open up their economies again. Pelosi is still trying to get the tax payer to fund, the Democrats plot to perpetuate the blame pain game.

What Trump and the RNC should do, is create a discussion that compares Watergate with Obama-gate. They can play all the older Democrats, still in office, like Schumer, Pelosi and Biden, etc., saying how bad Watergate was, and why people had to resign and go to jail. Team Trump can then compare and contrast how Obama-gate made Watergate look like small potatoes. The punishment will need to be in proportion.

For example, Nixon and Watergate never use the power of government; intel agencies, to spy on the DNC, as Obama, Hillary and the DNC did to Trump. Nixon never used Democrat people as props, who got railroaded, to make the Obama-gate plot appear more credible. That crossed a line even Nixon did not think of. We are taking about scum bags. Jail may not be good enough, if we maintain proportions, based on the ole Democrat talking points from Watergate.

What is interesting is the House Intel committee, questioned former Obama people, under oath about Russian and Trump collusion nobody said there was any proof or evidence. However, those who knew this truth, went on to willfully lie to the press and therefore conspired with Obama to perpetuate the fraud. We may need to have a House cleaning. We can play them lying to the America people on CNN and other propaganda sites for the DNC. Willfully lying to hurt people will make them vulnerable to law suits. This is how you can get media people and politicians who think they are above the law. General Flynn will become very rich.

He wasnt guilty of any crime until the FBI asked him questions. Nor was he convicted of anything except lying to the FBI. Its pretty clear the DNC and FBI manufactured this whole Russia thing, and then punished a few scapegoats who obstructed them when they investigated their own imagined crimes.

NBC’s “Meet the Press” apologized for editing a clip of an interview with Attorney General William Barr

"You’re correct. Earlier today, we inadvertently and inaccurately cut short a video clip of an interview with AG Barr before offering commentary and analysis,” the news program tweeted late Sunday in response to DOJ spokeswoman Kerri Kupec.

“The remaining clip included important remarks from the attorney general that we missed, and we regret the error,” “Meet the Press” added.

I appreciate their correction. I've been in the news business a long time. Good organizations re-assess their own reports honestly and issue corrections.

I'm not that familiar with "Meet the Press." I don't watch it. But they do interview a range of perspectives, they try to ask probing questions, they offer their "opponents" a chance to give their point of view. I think it's among the better mainstream programs, and so I'll accept a timely correction as a show of good faith.
 
Things like this proves that liberalism condones mischaracterizations and deception as a means to gain power.

If you aren't familiar with Meet The Press and don't watch it, how do you know about the probing questions and such?

MTP was pretty damned good when Tim Russert hosted it, but since chuck Todd took over it's become a partisan piece of crap.

And is anyone surprised? This type of thing is happening every day in the left wing media and within the leaders of the democrat party. How anyone can trust what comes out of either of those sources is just amazing. Left wing hate is a such a fever pitch that they will say and do anything, (fake dossiers, FBI pressuring witnesses to lie, present false evidence to obtain FISA warrants). The democrat voters need to wake up and hold their folks accountable.

The only thing we are surprised about is the right wing believes "their guys" are more honest in public.

Yes, Bill Barr is the bad guy, no matter how emotionally unequipped some people are to accept that, based on his record of OOJ.
