The DNC probably started the Russia helping Bernie rumor. We know they don't want Bernie to win.

i hate to admit it, but that is a fair point of contrast. however, it was not the only bs spouted either.
you'll be surprised what the media can "find?" if you don't align with their own goals. and Bernie has some sweet nothings said about the U.S.S.R., along with visits to Russia to easily stack some negative press coverage.
just a warning mate, my previous comment was a joke, but don't be surprised when CNN calls for it.

i am not pro-Bernie, but i am pro-populist-candidate. so i am still rooting for a Sanders vs Trump 2020.

this is what started the "Mueller" investigation. there were numerous investigations, this is the collective report to start "specifically" Mueller's investigation.

ctrl+F Clinton

Trump accuses Schiff of leaking intelligence about Russia to hurt Sanders

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump on Sunday accused Representative Adam Schiff of leaking classified information on Russian interference in the 2020 U.S. election to hurt Democratic presidential front-runner Bernie Sanders.

Speaking to reporters as he left the White House for a trip to India, Trump said he had not been briefed on intelligence that Russia was aiming to boost the campaign of Sanders, a U.S. senator from Vermont, and he called for a probe into Schiff for the leak. Schiff, a Democrat, denied the allegation.

A congressional source told Reuters on Friday that intelligence officials had told lawmakers Russia appears to be engaging in disinformation and propaganda campaigns to help both Sanders and Trump, who is seeking re-election.

“I read where Russia is helping Bernie Sanders. Nobody said it to me at all. Nobody briefed me about that at all,” Trump said.

“They leaked it, Adam Schiff and his group. They leaked it to the papers and - as usual - they ought to investigate Adam Schiff for leaking that information,” Trump said, without providing any evidence to back up his claims.

Schiff, who served as the lead prosecutor in Trump’s impeachment trial in the Senate, said Trump was seeking to turn attention away from his own actions with the comments.

“Nice deflection, Mr. President. But your false claims fool no one,” he wrote in a tweet. “You welcomed Russian help in 2016, tried to coerce Ukraine’s help in 2019, and won’t protect our elections in 2020. Now you fired your intel chief for briefing Congress about it. You’ve betrayed America. Again.”

Trump changed out his acting director of national intelligence Joseph Maguire and replaced him with U.S. Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell last week, reportedly after being annoyed by the briefing to lawmakers about Russian interference.

The president has repeatedly cast doubt on U.S. intelligence findings that Russia intervened to help him in the 2016 presidential election against Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, the former secretary of state.

By raising questions about the latest findings, Trump appears to be seeking to boost Sanders, who is now the front-runner for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination. As a self-described democratic socialist, Sanders is a candidate Trump would like to take on in a general election to bolster his argument that Democrats are pushing a socialist agenda.

Trump has long argued that the Democratic Party favored Clinton unfairly over Sanders in the 2016 primary race, an issue that still divides the Democratic base.

“I think what it could be is, you know, the Democrats are treating Bernie Sanders very unfairly and it sounds to me like a leak from Adam Schiff because they don’t want Bernie Sanders to represent them. It sounds like it’s (2016) all over again for Bernie Sanders,” Trump said.

Other administration officials have cast doubt on reports that Russia was trying to help Trump again this year.

“I haven’t seen any intelligence that Russia is doing anything to attempt to get President Trump re-elected,” White House National Security Adviser Robert O’Brien told ABC’s “This Week.”




I guess I called that one.

The only thing leaking in this situation is Trump's diaper.

Yea, MSNBC is having a complete meltdown. I don't know why these pundits are so emotionally invested in these sort of things. A Sanders presidency doesn't scare me at all because he'll get next to nothing done. America, by design, moves incredibly slowly.


But I was told the corporate media is all in for the left...

they are for bought/paid/controlled politicians like Clinton/Buttigieg/Biden etc. On the other side they love candidates like McCain/Ryno Ryan/Romney

this is how they view any other candidate:



persuading people to vote for you = dark arts. barnie winning nevada = just like the national-socialist army invading france. a bit of racism/anti-semitic filled dog whistles from disgusting pale pasty privileged lefty #fakenews tabloid merchants like nicolle wallace and chris matthews

Vast parts of the media are indeed all in for cookie-cutter "liberalism" (in the contemporary American sense of the word), not for actual leftists.
They support leftist policies on social and cultural issues which divide the country and distract from their unwillingness to change the economic status quo in a meaningful way.
