So-Called News Network CNN draws dangerous line in the sand in response to President Joe Biden’s Thursday Night Address.

In his now famous for all the wrong reasons Thursday night address to the nation President Joe Biden called for preserving democracy and the doing away with racism and domestic terrorism in our society and in our Government and CNN didn’t care for that very much as their response has been to attack Biden for it relentlessly. This is the same network that made a mockery of itself with its embarrassingly childish and tabloid Afghanistan withdrawal coverage. The same network who refused to call the election for Joe Biden when it was over, and it was clear he had beaten the brakes off of Donald Trump by getting the most votes of any President in History. The same network that covered Donald Trump’s empty podium like it was the Shroud of Turin and covered Hillary Clinton’s Emails like they were the subway sarin gas attacks all the while knowing full well that democracy and American lives were on the line. Incidentally CNN helped Donald Trump into office and assisted in the loss of many lives from Covid_19. The same network who when Donald Trump announced his candidacy for president and said that most Mexicans are rapists and drug dealers and we’re going to build a wall and have Mexico pay for it didn’t even so much as blink except to check their ratings. The same network who for four years refused to call Donald Trump a liar or ask him to resign. The same network who for eight long years refused to call GOP attacks on President Barack Obama Racist. Including racist attacks by future fake president and CNN darling Donald Trump when he sent his own investigators to Hawaii to search for Obama’s birth certificate. The same network who pushed for invading Iraq with no evidence of weapons of mass destruction. The same network who has found their ratings falling faster that Joe Bidens approval ratings are rising and they have the nerve to wonder why. But now CNN wants to pretend that they actually have standards other than ratings and suddenly out of the clear blue sky want to do news and hold the President accountable. CNN is completely oblivious to the frightening reasons as to why a President has the need to make such a speech because they’re on the other side. They have been traveling down this road for some time and now the line in the sand has been clearly drawn. CNN has made their decision to be the official news network of Fascism. Fox News must be so jealous. Both Republican propaganda networks have become a dangerous threat to America, Democracy and marginalized groups everywhere. CNN has stopped short of calling for violence and civil war, for now anyway. Life comes at you fast or in their case very, very slowly.
