China is the real threat, but CNN's reluctance to call out China for interference muddle US response.

Maybe he’s just following the obama policy
When alerted to Russian meddling, call off the investigators
But issue a sternly worded warning to “ knock it off”

How many CNN bigwigs and newsreaders do you suppose are on Putin’s contact list? I can’t ever forget the lovefest this network had with the then Soviet Union back in the eighties!

Ok . I have had it with this crap. Someone, ANYONE. Describe in objective elements exactly what “Russian meddling” is. Be very specific. I dont want conclusions . I want actual facts as to the technique used specifically by the Russians that are such a grave threat to our beloved democracy. This is the biggest pile of horse dung I have ever seen.

Yeah, it’s better to be enemies with a Paranoid people with a Nuclear stockpile that could turn America into glass.

In the Democrats' world, President Trump and his voters are supposed to be angry at Putin over "Russian interference" that cost Hillary Clinton the election when John Podesta's email was hacked and the whole world exposed to the fact that the DNC was actively hobbling Berne Sanders' primary campaign.

Oh yeah, and "fake news" that largely consisted of real news unflattering to Hillary Clinton's campaign that the MSM didn't want to report on.

It’s a republic and CNN is a bigger threat to it than Russia.

So, Mr. Avlon, what exactly did President Obama do about this while it was actually happening during HIS term and 17 U.S. Intelligence agencies (according to Hillary during the debates) found out about it and informed her and Obama?

DJT should remind the nation of the real collusion with Russia...by Ted Kennedy, Jimmy Carter, Tip O’Neil and other Democrats and that of the Clinton’s with the PRC and Russia.

These turdling apparatchiks trying to cram down policy need to be dealt with. We just had an election cycle. Almost everyone of those puppets across the board was a warmonger. All of them lost.

All of them.

I’m ready to see these turdlings go the way of the Securitat in Romania.

CNN lies. Trump called out Russian Oleg Deripaska and pals, even imposing official sanctions on them by name. CNN won’t report that because Deripaska is also pals with CNN favorite RINOs John McCain and Bob Dole.

CNN:

How dare Trump not do what WE want him to do, and ‘call out’ Russia!

The nerve of him.

This jeopardizes democracy, alright... WE SAY SO!

I suspect President Trump knows more about the “Russian Meddling” then he's saying right now. He may have read the unredacted files that show it was the democRATS that had more to do with the “Russian Meddling” than the Russians!

Perhaps the news network doing the criticizing might check out their source for describing America's form of government before they share any other thoughts on the matter.

The Founders and Framers of America's Constitutional government made their intentions and their Constitutional structuring clear at the time, and all the later talk of "democracy" reflects the Liberal/Progressive ideology--not the Framers' philosophy of individual liberty and limited government power.

To go from what Jefferson called "the American mind" of 1776--generations who were willing to sacrifice everything for the cause of liberty in America and, as a "beacon of liberty" throughout the world--to what only can be described as the "foolishness" discussed in the subject article of this thread, should alarm all who care about the prospects of freedom for our posterity!

“Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present Generation to preserve your Freedom! I hope you will make good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven, that I ever took half the Pains to preserve it.” - John Adams

“Democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts and murders itself. There was never a democracy that did not commit suicide.” - – John Adams, letter to John Taylor, 1814

The second Adams quotation, above, reminds us, too, that, contrary to Progressive claims, the Founders and Framers of America's Constitution never formed a "democracy," as is explained thoroughly by John Quincy Adams in his "Jubilee" Address* in NYC at the invitation of the New York Historical Society in 1839, which concludes with the following statement:
" Fellow-citizens, the ark of your covenant is the Declaration of independence. Your Mount Ebal, is the confederacy of separate state sovereignties, and your Mount Gerizim is the Constitution of the United States. In that scene of tremendous and awful solemnity, narrated in the Holy Scriptures, there is not a curse pronounced against the people, upon Mount Ebal, not a blessing promised them upon Mount Gerizim, which your posterity may not suffer or enjoy, from your and their adherence to, or departure from, the principles of the Declaration of Independence, practically interwoven in the Constitution of the United States. Lay up these principles, then, in your hearts, and in your souls – bind them for signs upon your hands, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes – teach them to your children, speaking of them when sitting in your houses, when walking by the way, when lying down and when rising up – write them upon the doorplates of your houses, and upon your gates – cling to them as to the issues of life – adhere to them as to the cords of your eternal salvation. So may your children’s children at the next return of this day of jubilee, after a full century of experience under your national Constitution, celebrate it again in the full enjoyment of all the blessings recognized by you in the commemoration of this day, and of all the blessings promised to the children of Israel upon Mount Gerizim, as the reward of obedience to the law of God."

Please read entire speech here.

*THE JUBILEE OF THE CONSTITUTION: A Discourse Delivered at the Request of the New York Historical Society, in the City of New York, on Tuesday, the 30th of April, 1839; Being the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Inauguration of George Washington as President of the United States, on Thursday, the 30th of April, 1789."

Idiots - the reason these folks were out there telling us about the threat was because President Trump wanted them out there and letting us know he was aware and working to defend us from the attacks....

Two possibilities here:

The idiot author really couldn't grasp that fact...

The idiot author knew it but opted to twist it into fake news...

Either way, CNN does what it can to retain the title Fake News....
