Known as a mouthpiece for the Democrat Party, CNN has now graduated to Biden State TV, something the Federal Communications Commission [FCC] must insist on a warning label for viewers. There’s noting wrong with CNN as Democrat-now-Biden state TV but there’s something very wrong presenting the station as a news station. CNN’s 55-year-old CEO Jeff Zucker became the defacto leader of the resistance once Trump took office Jan. 20, 2016. No cable or network “news” station pushed the Russian witch hunt more that CNN, running 24/7 programming dedicated to cherry picked news that proved 74-year-old President Donald Trump was a Russian asset, as former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton pushed through the 2016 campaign and during Trump’s one-term in office. CNN’s primetime anchors can barely contain their glee now that Trump lost the Nov. 3 election.
Confronting 65-year-old Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), 50-year-old CNN host Chris Cuomo Dec. 8 slammed the South Carolina senator for saying Dec. 7 that Trump had a right to pursue claims of election fraud. “Seriously, senator? Do your words still come from your own brain, or just some reservoir of bile?” Cuomo asked Graham. Cuomo calls any challenges to the Nov. 3 election as “baseless claims,” a buzzword that disparages anyone that questions anything about what happened. Cuomo’s right saying that there’s no proof of election fraud but not right saying that questioning the way in which ballots were handled during the Covid-19 crisis. Trump’s prospects of a second term were upended by universal mail-in voting, creating the biggest voter turnout in U.S. history. Democrats had a 6% advantage in party registration, giving 78-year-old President-elect Joe Biden an edge with a large turnout.
Trump’s loss on Nov. 3 could be explained by the largest voter participation rate in U.S. history. For Trump to have won, he would have had to tap into the 38% of voters identified as independents, something he failed to do. With Democrats holding a registration advantage, Trump needed a bigger share of independent voters, something he failed to do because he was so demonized in the press, by the time the election rolled around. Political hacks like Cuomo are feeling pumped up after the election knowing they helped win the race for the Democrat candidate. Now Democracy that depends on a free press can allow credentialed news organizations to take such egregious sides. Cuumo had no problems accusing a respected GOP senator of doing Trump’s bidding. “there’s a civil war brewing in Georgia for no good reason,” Grahma said, expressing the GOP’s dissatisfaction with the Nov. 3 results.
Graham was trying to make the point that there are serious reservations about the way battleground states handled universal mail-in ballots. Whether there was fraud or not, Cuomo and other fake journalists can’t simply advocate for their side without repercussions. FCC officials have an obligation to identify “news” organizations as biased when their hosts routinely back and support Democrat causes. There was no pretense whatsoever in the 2020 election for CNN, MSNBC and network news stations demonstrating their support of Biden and other Democrat candidates. News consumers have a right to know that what they’re watching in Democrat-backed political advocacy, not political news reporting. Listen one minute to CNN hosts Anderson Cooper or Don Lemon, tells their party affiliation. With so many news outlets picking Biden’s side, Trump had little chance in the 2020 election.
Cuomo slammed Graham to daring to suggest there were any election irregularities, insisting that there’s no proof. But whether there’s proof or not, Graham has every right to question the way in which ballots were collected-and-counted in the 2020 election. “It’s not unreasonable to ask the Legislature to come back in and order an audit of the signatures in the presidential race to see if the system worked,” Graham told Cuomo. Cuomo, now emboldened because of Biden’s big win, insulted Graham’s intelligence. “No you don’t mean to save the country, you mean save you’re a–,” Cumo said, showing utter contempt for Graham’s questions. Calling Graham a “Retrumplican” for questioning the election, Cuomo doesn’t want to entertain any election irregularities, something 57-year-old Texas Atty. Gen. Ken Paxton did when he filed for injunctive relief in the U.S. Supreme Court.
Whether admitted to or not by the GOP, the Supreme Court isn’t likely to take up any legal action by Paxton or any other state attorneys general. There’s a big difference in 2020 than there was in 2000, when Republicans won Bush v. Gore in the U.S. Supreme Court. At that time, state election officials were mired in counting “hanging chads” over a few hundred votes. This time around, the GOP is questioning the 150 million voters that cast ballots by mail or in-person. No court, certainly no the Supreme Court, is going to interfere with a national presidential election, because one side “thinks” there was fraud or voter irregularities. In five days Dec. 14, the Electoral College will meet to vote to confirm Biden’s 306 Electoral votes to Trump’s 332. When that happens, all the noise about fraud and voter irregularity becomes moot. No Supreme Court is going to nullify a national presidential election.
