RUSH: Grab sound bite number 3. This is CNN New Day today. CNN was shamed into reporting the truth about the left-wing views of the Dayton shooter.
They sent a reporter to Dayton whose name is Polo Sandoval. Polo Sandoval, they’ve sent to Dayton, Ohio, to basically find out what I told everybody yesterday. All you have to do is look at this guy’s Twitter feed and you find out he’s a left-wing radical wacko. But, see, that didn’t fit the media narrative. (impression) “No, no! This guy, like El Paso, this guy’s a rock-ribbed conservative white supremacist, white nationalist.”
Then they send somebody out there to find out about this guy, and they find out that he believes everything CNN believes. So John Berman this morning on CNN talking to CNN Correspondent Polo Sandoval about the Dayton shooter’s political views, and Berman says, “So we’re learning new details about the gunman there through his high school classmates and also through social media. So tell us, Polo Sandoval, what is it you have learned?”
SANDOVAL: That Twitter account was the suspended by Twitter on Sunday evening, really just after that shooting. Though when you look at that, it seems to be that it likely belonged to the actual suspect himself. This account contained extreme left-wing posts. It was anti-police, pro-Antifa. Retweets that it included as well. In the bio line, it actually had the phrase — I’m quoting this — “I’m going to hell and I’m not come back.” This new information is coming as we continue to hear from some of the gunman’s former high school mates who say they were told by school officials nearly a decade ago that they were on not only a hate but also a rape list.
RUSH: Oh, he had a rape list? Ooh. Ooh. And the guy was anti-police, pro-Antifa, extreme left-wing posts. Why, that goes flat-out against everything CNN has been telling their viewers. Now, next up, Kellyanne Conway was on Fox & Friends today with Brian Kilmeade, who said, “Is the president locked into visiting El Paso and Dayton on Wednesday? Can’t get out of it, gotta go now?”
CONWAY: This president is trying to bring the country together, heal a nation, but also offer concrete proposals on how to move forward as a nation — and let me tell you something. I’m hopping mad this morning because I see very little, scant coverage of the fact that this Dayton shooter has been confirmed as having a Twitter feed that was supportive of Antifa, that was supportive of Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders. Obviously nine, 10 years ago in high school, he had a kill list for boys, a rape list for girls. And there’s scant attention being paid to this. Elizabeth Warren yesterday was raising money for Senate candidates Doug Jones and Tina Smith. She’s raising money in an email appeal talking about the mass shooting. This is a disgrace — and if nobody else is gonna talk about it, I’m gonna talk about it.
RUSH: Well, yeah, you’re the lone voice, Kellyanne. Of course, you’re amplified by us here at the EIB Network. But she’s right. Democrats are out fundraising off of this under the guise that this guy’s an out-of-control, Trump-supporting white supremacist. When in fact, he’s a loyal, leftist, Democrat hatemonger — or was.
Forced? No, forced? By who?
My take on that is that the DNC is going to use this incident to try and quash their party’s more outspoken elements on the far left.
yeah...Antifa was a sympathetic knock’em in the head voice of the socialist peoples movement ‘till they got out of control with the crazies joining their ranks. Now the monster has gotten out of the DNC’s(and the deep state’s control perhaps) control.
CBS local outlet in Philly included it in their summary of the events last night too - surprised me, but of the three major network locals, they’re usually best balanced - usually.......
They can’t. They just fired a bunch of DCCC leadership for not being diverse enough, despite winning the House in 2018. Antifa is the one in the driver’s seat.
“My take on that is that the DNC is going to use this incident to try and quash their party’s more outspoken elements on the far left.”
It sounds to me like you suspect that cnn wasn’t ‘forced’ at all to report this. Rather, this newscast was ‘approved’ and sanctioned by the dnc for the purpose you outlined in your post.
You are very probably correct.
Warren and every other democrat has blood on their hands... I don't see how the DNC can use it against Warren and not against Biden. Left wing is left wing...
Yeah, this wasn’t forced and it wasn’t accidental. They had the “extremist left views” in the chyron live during the report, thus it was pre-approved. It might indicate a move to disassociate with Antifa and their likes, and serve as a warning shot to the squad.
Normally, they would just lie, and call the shooter an alt-right neo-nazi Trump supporter.
When you create a monster, it will turn against those who built it. This is a story as old as stories themselves; from the medieval Golem to the story of Frankenstein. Sad that people don’t learn from history, and reject or ignore the wisdom in ancient lore, or simply don’t think through the consequences of their decisions or act hastily for political expediency.
Today’s left has built all kinds of monsters; some of them embodied in people but most of them embodied in shibboleths and harmful ideas. The left is already starting to fracture from it - they are attacking the media for not bashing Trump enough, AOC and Pelosi infighting, the Dem candidates attacking Obama, the various grievance groups all jockeying for elevated status. This is what happens when you have no principles and embrace political expediency. The center cannot hold.
More likely an ATT exec made the decision.
