Kirsten Powers: Conservatives ‘Have No Interest in Free Speech’ Under ‘Authoritarian Wannabe’ Trump
Breitbart ^ | August 18, 2018 | Pam Key

Posted on 08/18/2018 7:22:40 AM PDT by EdnaMode

Friday on CNN’s “The Lead,” network political analyst Kirsten Powers said President Donald Trump’s threat to revoke more security clearances after doing so to former CIA Director John Brennan was the action of an “authoritarian wannabe.”

Powers said, “Donald Trump doesn’t care, obviously doesn’t care about that. What he cares about is he has been insulted. This is all part of a sort of profile of the authoritarian wannabe and what you expect from despotic countries led more by despots and not led by democratically elected presidents.”

Leftists: get conservative speakers banned from campuses, conservatives banned from social media, and call every opinion they don't like hate speech. Conservatives call out MSM for lying. That is a HUGE difference!

How do security clearances equate to free speech? I don’t think liberals know up from down. I know they don’t know right from wrong.

She used to sound sensible from time to time when she was on FOX.

I always wondered how sane she was... especially after I heard she used to date Anthony Weiner in the pre-Huma days.

Third grade logic from a second rate commentator.

Either idiots who couldn’t see th truth if it bit them…or Marxists who study under the tutelage of Saul Alinski and propagate the myth.

People are also free to not buy a paper if theywish, or write a disagreement in blogs.

You can smell the desperation from the MSM! Their act is getting old and stale, and their part in the fake collusion narrative and promoting Democrat propaganda is being exposed and discovered by a growing number of Americans.

Although left leaning, she always seemed to be logical with her responses and discussions. I guess the Counterfeit News Network bug has bitten!

Clearance are not about free speech. THINK ABOUT IT!

US classified security information and free speech!

It seems that just about 1/2 of the country has no measurable IQ.

“”She used to sound sensible from time to time when she was on FOX.””

Occasionally she did - you’re right. I can’t stand listening to any of these people but I would like to hear from one - JUST ONE - a reason why any former administration employees should retain a security clearance. Only FOX has commentators that are saying it’s hogwash.. Is every other outlet so twisted that they don’t think people are asking themselves the same question? Do they just accept the fact that their listeners are braindead?

Brennan has his security clearance removed and he’s a bigger blabbermouth than ever; as is fired and disgraced blabbermouth Omarosa.
