Trump got his guy Kavanaugh on the SC & now has a lackey as acting AG. Obviously, doing everything he can to protect his presidency, himself & his fam from the Mueller investigation.Using his power & our govt completely for his own self interests. Think this is likely to backfire, but we'll see. Huge showdowns on the way..
It seems cake walk for Trump to do before yesterday, Pres. Trump and GOP control everything in Federal Government. But, the thing is drastically changed after Democrats take the House today.
Check and balance have come alive now.

Acosta crossed the line at that breifing. He didn't respect the intern at all, was total disregard for her position, dissmissive, brushing her arm away.
It's funny how CNN went in full blown virtue signalling mode after the Lewandowski/Feilds incident, but sees nothing wrong with Acosta treating a female intern this way. If John Kelly walked over to take mic no way Acosta touches him.
Acosta should only be allowed back into breifings if he agrees to be restrained in Hannibal Lector type dolly-straight jacket-mask contraption.

cry me a river!!!!!!!!! That poor intern!!!what horrible behavior....give me a damn break man, were we watching the same video?? I saw nothing inappropriate about that at all. The only thing I saw there was someone acting very bizarre and throwing a tantrum because he isn't getting his way.

I also dont think he crossed a line. He questioned the dictator, the dictator did not like the questions, the reporter continued asking questions, the little ego dictator got bothered like he always does...dont question the little dictator or his doobies will come and remove your mic and bar you from being in the presence of the dictator.
Trump is a joke...quit acting like a spoiled jerk and the questions would not be asked. A reporter questioning and inquiring for details does not mean he should be barred from the discussion and from the WH.

When it was cleae the protocol was one Q per reporter, Acosta went for a 2nd and got Trump to finally engage back, but going for a 3rd Q was Acosta grandstanding and looking for a true confrontation which ideally is CNN's overall agenda for ratings...now they have something more personal to talk about as hes lost his WH press credentials as a result...maybe Acosta will now be a Democrat candidate in 2020 funded by Ted Turner himself?

Acosta TOTALLY crossed a line and should NEVER be allowed back on W.H. grounds..NEVER..What a total jerk....
Just Imagine someone treating Obama like that...
CNN has showed all of America what DIVISION is.....could NOT have been more on display yesterday..maybe Intern presses charges....
Time for CNN to move on and find somebody else to try and cover WH "professionally"..Acosta is one of the biggest a$$holes to ever be in that rol........Pitiful and what a disgrace
Btw..Jim ..time to look up definition of "invasion"

I would like to see another reporter get in Acosta's grill. Maybe I need to show up with an infowars press pass! Acosta needs to 'grow up' like the Antifa thugs who terrorized Tucker and his family last night. The Left is obviously unhinged and unwell. Just a few recent examples of 'Liberalism is a mental disorder'!

You saw nothing wrong because you're probably the type that hits girls and says, "What's the big deal? Girls are just people. Equal rights." He's a man that got physical with a woman who was just trying to do her job. Nothing wrong with that, huh?

Funny...
So the dictator does not like to answer questions in depth unless they are friendly to his biases, or if it some female he likes, so what should the reporter do just lay down like the lackeys all around the dictator do?
I find myself to be the same way, if a know it all thug likes to try and taunt or oppress, I act similarly...Trump does not deserve the respect of any question limits, the guy is a schmuck who likes to bully people, answer questions only when he wants to and if he does not like you he is a little ego bully moron. So boo hoo Trump, how about you stop being an embarrassment and show some class to your position and then maybe the meanie fake news jerks might not need to treat you as hostile...
Nah....point your stubby finger and berate instead, you are the KING of belittling.

Yeah, WSC, but at what point does the press remember that this is still the POTUS. And if you don't respect the man, you have to respect the office. I've never, and granted I am only in my 30's, but I have never seen the press act that way while addressing the POTUS. Likewise, I have never seen a President act this way but one side has to give. I think the media these days go to far. You see this even in sports press conferences. They try to get a rise. The poke, they prod, and it's not in the name of good journalism. It's to create a scene.

I mean i've rewatched it several times and Trump answered every question. And Jim poked and poked, and held the mic. Is he a rookie? Does he not know how a press conference works? You ask your question, maybe one follow up, and you keep it moving.
Journalism, in general, has fallen to shite. It doesn't matter if you're covering the white house or the Pittsburgh Steelers these guys (and gals) suck. They don't use a proper journalistic process, they're questions are often loaded (at best), if not all out inappropriate. Worst of all, the have this arrogance and sense if entitlement. We've gotten to a point where reporters think they are as big of stars as the people the cover. So they act out. Like I said, it's bigger than Jim Acosta. I feel the same way about sports beat writers.

We need fisticuffs or a good old fashion brawl in the press room! It will/should come to that. Acosta is not a journalist. He is a Lefty plant. Does he have a certificate and or a license in order to be a reporter? Acosta is a total schmuck.

Wall...i agree with you...however Acosta knew exactly what he was doing and completely overstepped his boundaries too, going for a 3rd Q was not very respectful to all the other press members looking for a single Q and a little bit of their own spotlight asking a direct Q to the President...and when the intern came at him to get the mike on more than one occasion, when is enough enough from Acosta?
History is littered with presidents deflecting questions and refusing to answer the tough questions...if anything, yesterday trump looked and acted like a real politician for the first time ever, inbetween his absurb outbursts.

Jim Acosta and CNN lied..... he gave a karate like chop to the female staffer’s arm...

Acosta's actions were disgraceful beyond belief....Acosta wanted to make accusations and argue with the President...he obviously forgot in wasn't in a press briefing with Sarah Sanders..

Of course Acosta knew what he was doing..this isnt the first press conference for the dictator, he has earned this from pre-president to the current day. I know presidents side step questions or dont want to discuss in detail but there has never been a more abusive and belittling president and I hope there never will be again.
Trump lacks the ability to show respect and class, he lacks this and is not interested in being any different than he is. So those who are strong enough to stand up to the bully will continue to do so and this will never end. The longer he goes about his approach the lower and lower the respect he demands will be given to him.
If he wants respect he has to give it 100 times over...and that will never happen.

Acosta appeared on Anderson Cooper 360 and said, "I didn't put my hands on
her or touch her, as the White House is alleging."
This statement by Acosta is more fake news from CNN....as the vid in #42 shows..proving again, that CNN reporters are the true enemy of the people.....................

Did you know that, 10% of the White House press corps are affiliated with either NBC or CNN? Of course you did. And I am sure you know what paid contributor contracts are. Of course you do.

There's no "probably" about it. Be truthful. He was asked to resign. He did not resign under his free will.
Having said that I'm glad he's gone.
Where is djbrow when you need him ?
He was jumping in and out of the forum the other day...
"Q" for djbrow...or anyone else who has a legal knowledge... Does Sessions letter of resignation amount to a voluntary resignation, rather than a firing, even though his departure came at Trump’s request?
As far as free will ... I believe Session had the free will ..to not resign if he chose.. and in doing so,, it would allow the President to then fire him..
