Since "fake news" meant "anyone who's critical of me," "VERY fake news" sounds downright ominous, given the other developments...You're forgetting that CNN is now VERY fake news.

A political appointee at the Department of Housing and Urban Development was fired for an op-ed he wrote before the election that criticized then-candidate Donald Trump, a source with knowledge of the situation told CNN.
In an October op-ed for The Hill, Republican consultant Shermichael Singleton said Trump was taking the Republican Party to a "new moral low."
"We allowed that hostile takeover to happen on our watch," he wrote. "This individual recognized a moment of great disparity in the Republican base and, like cancer, attacked and spread, consuming everything in his path."
Singleton's piece criticized Trump's rhetoric about African Americans during the campaign. After the election, the 26-year-old worked with Ben Carson during his confirmation process to become HUD secretary. Singleton, who is African American, then joined the department as a senior adviser.
But on Wednesday, he was brought into the chief of staff's office and fired, the source familiar with the situation told CNN. Singleton was told he was being dismissed because of the op-ed and was escorted from the building, according to the source, who also said Carson was surprised by the move and only learned of it after the fact.
So now the independent press is an enemy of the American people, if not the state? And such enemies must be fought, I presume? For the safety of the American people, one would assume.Perhaps someone in his inner circle decided they needed to slow down the roll out of his facist rhetoric.
CBS and ABC made the revised tweet as enemies.So now the independent press is an enemy of the American people, if not the state? And such enemies must be fought, I presume? For the safety of the American people, one would assume.
Good God, how far is the GOP willing to let this go?
Seebell say if you are a political appointee and want to keep your job best to keep mouth shut.
Sadly. Though if his approval keeps plummeting, all but his white nationalist core will have to start jumping ship at some point.based on what we've seen (85% approval by republicans) i think they are all in
Probably wise. Although in fairness to the guy, his piece was published before Trump was the nominee, and he did a mea culpa during the transition and swore loyalty to Trump. But then apparently Trump read the piece again and had a second round of anger. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯Seebell say if you are a political appointee and want to keep your job best to keep mouth shut.
thats why he was a jerk to the jewish guy and played the "you all know each other" stereotyping on the black reporter to keep his base happySadly. Though if his approval keeps plummeting, all but his white nationalist core will have to start jumping ship at some point.
You think that four black people in Trump shirts disproves the fact that white nationalists have been attracted to Trump's message from the very beginning?cause it's hard out here for a white nationalist
Retired general and former CIA Director David Petraeus has reportedly pulled his name from consideration to replace Michael Flynn as National Security Adviser.
According to a report by the Wall Street Journal Friday, Petraeus's name was floated for the role, but the White House was miffed by his concerns about staffing and independence.
It's become obvious that the last thing on earth Trump wants is an independent NSA...

That showed last November at a cocktail and dinner reception celebrating longtime members of his Bedminster, New Jersey golf club. Deep into the process of meeting potential Cabinet nominees, the president-elect invited partygoers to stop by the next day to join the excitement.
“We’re doing a lot of interviews tomorrow — generals, dictators, we have everything,” Trump told the crowd, according to an audio tape of his closed-press remarks obtained by POLITICO from a source in the room. “You may wanna come around. It’ll be fun. We’re really working tomorrow. We have meetings every 15, 20 minutes with different people that will form our government."
"We’re going to be interviewing everybody — Treasury, we’re going to be interviewing Secretary of State,” he continued. “We have everybody coming in — if you want to come around, it’s going to be unbelievable... so you might want to come along.”
... Trump often appears to want to include his friends in the decision-making process.
Turning to a longtime club member that night, he said: “We were just talking about who we [are] going to pick for the FCC, who [are] we going to pick for this, who we gonna accept -- boy, can you give me some recommendations?”
The supportive crowd ate it up as the relaxed Trump, in his element, gave them a close-up view of how he was setting up the government. “You are the special people,” he told the crowd of about 100 members, who mingled around a sushi station served by a waiter wearing a camouflage “Make America Great Again” cap.
i imagine you know the answer to that questionYou think that four black people in Trump shirts disproves the fact that white nationalists have been attracted to Trump's message from the very beginning?
That's pretty obvious he doesn't understand that saying "All white nationalist voted for Trump" doesn't mean "All Trump voters are white nationalist." It's too complicated of a concept.You think that four black people in Trump shirts disproves the fact that white nationalists have been attracted to Trump's message from the very beginning?
