Monday’s split-screen drama, as the House Judiciary Committee weighed impeachment charges against President Trump and as the Justice Department’s inspector general released a 476-page report on the FBI’s handling of its 2016 investigation into Trump’s campaign, made one truth of the modern world inescapable: The lies and obfuscations forwarded ad infinitum on Fox News pose a dangerous threat to the national security of the United States.
The facts of both dramas were clear to objective viewers: In the one instance, there’s conclusive and surprisingly consistent evidence that President Trump pushed Ukraine to concoct dirt on a domestic political rival to affect the 2020 presidential election, and in the other, Justice Department

There's nothing worse than a sore loser. I assume he is wondering the streets looks for a safe place to suck his thumb, play with some baby goats and perhaps color a picture of a MAGA hat. A mind is a terrible thing to waste and this guy is wasted.

The Left has labeled Fox News as a traitorous cabal which threaten national security and the NRA as a terrorist organization and our free speech as "hate speech" which must be suppressed at all costs. The Left has taken off its mask and is now flaunting its Fascist predelictions for all the world to see. What the Deep State has done to Carter Page it can do to all of us.

Someone dropped acid, and I don't think it was Senator Kennedy...

1. So-called liberals sure do like censorship.
2. This guy is delusional.
3. The reason liberals like censorship is their ideas fail when facts are presented.

Name change is in order. I suggest UNWIRED.
What a load of offal. Can I say that? There was no quid pro quo. Period. There was no obstruction of justice. There was no abuse of power. There is nothing impeachable which has been brought forth at present.
On the other hand, there was abundant evidence of Hunter Biden being given a lot of money in exchange for large money transfers to the Biden trusts. Can that be investigated? Please? Normally a person is appointed to a Board of Directors for reasons related to that person's abilities. Hunter had shown the ability to get kicked out of the Navy. He had no petroleum or geology skill that I know of.
There was a lot of suspicion of connections between Burisma and the corrupt Ukraine system. Did not Plugs get a prosecutor fired? I suggest a money flow from the US to Burisma and back into the Biden trusts. Is this legal?
If Republicans are not permitted to call witnesses, if they are not permitted to question witnesses, if they are not allowed in closed-door hearings in the basement, then suspicions will be raised of bias. N'est pas?

Didn't find a comments section after the article. Sort of like hurling insults at your neighbor from your porch, then retreating inside and then slamming the door.

I couldn't get past the first bit....but unless he is being sarcastic at the beginning, I think Mr. Gaff is a liar and/or a fool. Probably both.

What idiot wrote this? What idiot posted this garbage on this forum?
READ THE TRANSCRIPT, STUPID.
The favor Trump asked the Ukrainian President was to get to the bottom of alleged Ukraine interference in the 2016 election, and specifically Crowdstrike's role in it. There was no mention of Joe Biden in that discussion.
The first mention of Joe Biden comes much later, and it is clear that Trump is talking about how Joe bragged that he threatened to withhold US funds unless the fired a specific prosecutor (who was investigating Burisma, who hired his son)
To conflate this into "a dangerous threat to the national security of the United States" is beyond absurd. What happened to the job of the Commander in Chief is to make sure that American aid to countries isn't siphoned off by corruption? What about the anti-corruption treaty between the US and Ukraine?
The author of this article is a numbskull partisan Democrat, and anyone who buys what he wrote is grossly ignorant.
this all gets back to the Democrat Call For Impeachment 15 minutes after the sear-in on Inauguration Day 2017.

The article is not intended to persuade but to enforce disciple among the liberal readers. The message to the reader is that you will be brainwashed and deceived by the devil if you commit the heresy of viewing Fox News. This is not unlike the way Scientologists enforce their control of their cult by shunning and excommunicating anyone who dares to browse the internet to read articles critical of their doctrine.
I'm hoping people will see this article and then start watching Fox to confirm the ridiculous charges. When they realize they are getting real information and not being hypnotized by MSM spin the liberal scales will drop from their eyes.

This moron is Pajama Boy with contact lens and a yachting blazer. With a name like Wired, you'd think the rag would keep an eye on all the white powder on the desks of its "writers."

Wired, a bunch of punks, geeks and Hollywood screenwriters. Oh so edgy with their urbancentric, Ivy League, hipster snark. Their politics are ultra pure media speak, which is to say far left and delusional. I expect every other issue to feature some tech based revamp of communism or some other elitist wet dream of a boot firmly on the throat of anyone who loves freedom of choice, personal responsibility, firearms and their own car. Wired is tired.

I agree it's garbage, but it's wise to learn what kind of garbage is out there and unwise to fear its presence.

Anyone using the term "national security" is a threat to national security.
