CNN Contributor Jonah Goldberg Retracts Statement After Misleading Voters with Erroneous ‘Execution’ Remark on Trump’s Cheney Comments

Another day, another hoax. The mainstream media’s relentless campaign to misrepresent former President Donald Trump has reached new heights.

In a Friday appearance on CNN, so-called conservative pundit Jonah Goldberg falsely claimed that Trump suggested a firing squad execution for former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.).

President Trump had criticized Cheney’s hawkish foreign policy views during an interview with Tucker Carlson on Thursday, condemning her stance on “endless wars.” At no point did Trump imply or suggest any such violent intentions toward Cheney—he merely called her out for her support of prolonged conflicts.

Goldberg, however, attacked Trump with an inflammatory conclusion, saying, “I don’t think you even need to call it fire-up on. He’s saying quite explicitly and unambiguously that Liz Chenney should be shot, should be executed by a firing squad. That is appalling. It is a small facet of the reasons why he’s unfit for office, and the Republican Party has made a disastrous mistake renominating him.”

TROUBLE IN PARADISE: Kamala Harris Gets Destroyed by CNN Panel Over Catastrophic Town Hall While Triggered Libs Unleash on ‘Entitled White Male’ Host Anderson Cooper

The reviews for Kamala Harris’s performance during last night’s town hall are coming in, and they are not pretty. Meanwhile, liberal fans of the flailing presidential candidates are turning their ire on one of their own for being too ‘mean’ to Harris.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Harris participated in a CNN town hall for undecided voters on Wednesday night. She fell apart completely under surprisingly tough questions from liberal host Anderson Cooper.

In one particularly embarrassing moment, Harris was reduced to a blubbering mess when pressed on the subject of the border crisis and the idea of a border wall.

CNN Insists Gov’t NOT ‘Deliberately Steering Hurricanes’ Toward Pro-Trump Areas in ‘Plot to Steal Election’

CNN ran a segment attempting to discredit speculation that the U.S. government may have steered recent hurricanes toward “Trump-supporting communities” in a bid to sway the upcoming election.

CNN’s Kaitlin Collins explained that chatter on social media was giving rise to an “old conspiracy theory” and “lie” that the government is manipulating the weather in the wake of Hurricanes Helene and Milton that have decimated Trump-leaning portions of Southeastern states.

“It was mostly confined to the fringe corners of the internet. The theory goes that the government controls the weather by dropping toxic chemicals from the sky in these trails that planes leave behind. It does not. Those trails are just water vapor,” Collins argued on Friday.

Kamala Harris Rushes to Accept CNN’s Debate Offer to Save Face — Trump Rejects Rigged Mainstream Circus Setup

Kamala Harris is desperately clinging to any opportunity to regain her political footing after a string of underwhelming performances.

CNN’s offer to host a second presidential debate on October 23 in Atlanta seemed like a lifeline for Harris, who quickly accepted the invitation, confident that the far-left network will shield her from tough scrutiny.

“CNN sent invitations on September 21 to both Vice President Harris and former President Trump’s campaigns to participate in a CNN debate this fall as we believe the American people would benefit from a second debate between the two candidates for President of the United States,” the far-left network said in a statement.

“With less than 30 days to Election Day, we are placing a deadline for a formal response from both campaigns for this Thursday, October 10 at 12 p.m. ET to participate,” the network added.

However, former President Donald Trump isn’t falling into CNN’s trap. He’s well aware of the network’s slanted coverage and refuses to participate in a rigged mainstream circus.

Trump’s rejection of the debate isn’t just a strategic move; it’s a stance against the very media machine that has propped up Harris and her failing campaign.

Harris, now left to fend for herself, tried to paint Trump as afraid of another face-off.

“Trump should have no problem agreeing since it is the same format and setup as the CNN debate he attended and said he won in June, when he praised CNN’s moderators, rules, and ratings,” according to Harris’ campaign.

His decision to decline isn’t just about the timing—it’s about refusing to engage with a network that has lost all credibility. CNN may have once been the gold standard of debate hosts, but under its current leadership, it’s little more than a PR firm for the Democrat Party.

CNN’s Dana Bash Claims Second Would-be Assassin’s ‘Anti-Trump Posts’ Have ‘Nothing to do With’ Current Admin

In a recent development surrounding Donald Trump’s second assassination attempt, CNN’s Dana Bash provided a clear rebuttal to the former president’s claims regarding the involvement of Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden. 

The internet, however, has its counter arguments for Bash; with one of the biggest examples of the shooter’s adherence to the Democrat party being a Trump-Harris bumper sticker found on a truck he used.

During a Monday interview on “CNN Newsroom with Wolf Blitzer,” Bash addressed the former president’s accusations that Harris and Biden’s rhetoric was influencing threats against him.

CNN’s Tapper Slams Kamala For Dodging Questions During Debate

CNN’s Jake Tapper unusually criticized Kamala Harris’ debate performance, pointing out a number of examples where she dodged actual question being asked.

The presidential debate was noteworthy for its clear bias towards Harris, who received zero fact checks from the moderators despite making a number of false claims.

On the other hand, Trump was fact checked at least four times and faced numerous ‘follow up’ confrontations with the moderators compared to Harris who faced barely any.

CNN also noted Kamala’s repeated prevarications when questions were lobbed her way.

When Harris was asked, “Do you believe Americans are better off than they were four years ago?” she responded by saying, “I was raised as a middle class kid.”

Fact Check: CNN Claims Kamala Harris Only Made One False Statement During Debate

CLAIM: Vice President Kamala Harris delivered only one false statement during Tuesday night’s debate on ABC News, CNN Senior Reporter Daniel Dale alleged.

VERDICT: False. Harris delivered at least 21 false statements and hoaxes, according to Breitbart News’s Alana Mastrangelo:

1. “Very fine people” hoax
2. Project 2025 hoax
3. False claims on Trump trade deficit
4. Putin can “do whatever the hell he wants”
5. “Dictator on day one” hoax
6. Blaming botched Afghanistan withdrawal on Trump
7. Putin “would be sitting in Kyiv”
8. “Bloodbath” hoax
9. Abortion “monitor” hoax
10. Rental property hoax
11. Central Park Five “execution” hoax
12. “Suckers and losers” hoax
13. False fracking claims
14. False oil production claims
15. National Sales Tax
16. Distorting unemployment figures
17. “I was raised middle-class”
18. “Terminating” the Constitution
19. “Sold us out” to China
20. “Not one” troop in any war zone
21. Taking guns away

Read more specifics on Harris’s false statements and hoaxes here.

Dale alleged that the only false statement Harris delivered was a claim that former President Donald Trump left the Biden-Harris administration the worst employment since the Great Depression.

“So, the Biden-Harris administration was not actually left the worst unemployment since the Great Depression,” Dale reported Tuesday evening:

They were left a 6.4 percent unemployment rate in January 2020, one that was certainly elevated, by recent standards — pretty high — but it was significantly down from the 14.18 percent level it reached early in the pandemic, so, it was already improving at the time the Biden-Harris administration took office, and that 6.4 percent level was the highest since the Great Recession, so, in the last 20 years, not going back decades.

Democrat allies in the establishment media widely applauded ABC News debate moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis for their performance.

Muir and Davis attempted to “fact-check” Trump at least seven times but never did so with Harris, according to an analysis by Breitbart News’s Joel Pollak. Harris regurgitated many hoaxes, notably the Charlottesville “very fine people” hoax, but the moderators turned a blind eye. The “fact-checking” was in one direction, Pollak found.

At one point in the debate, Muir even fact-checked Trump’s claim that he was sarcastic when discussing the results of the 2020 election in a recent interview.

CNN Journalist Suggests It’s Unfair to Ask Kamala About “Policy Detail”

Ahead of tonight’s debate, a CNN journalist suggested it was unfair for people to ask too much “policy detail” of Kamala Harris and that it was the media’s “job” to point that out.

The comments were made by Natasha S. Alford during a discussion of what to expect during this evening’s head to head between Harris and Trump.

“How does she have an opportunity on the one hand to do what needs to get done and also straddle that?” Alford was asked.

“Well I think this is where the fourth estate comes in, this is our job, right, as journalists tomorrow?” she responded.

“To actually push on the policy questions because what I do feel is that people are pushing for a higher standard of policy detail that they’ve actually pushed Donald Trump for,” she added.

In other words, don’t give Kamala too many hard questions about policy, despite that literally being the entire point of the debate.

Also, don’t grill her too much on things that matter, despite that being the entire point of journalism.

Harris has notoriously avoided talking about her what her actual policies will be and has only agreed to one major interview so far, during which she had to have her running mate Tim Walz sat next to her.

Here’s What You Missed in Kamala Harris’ Trainwreck Edited Interview with Chaperone Tim Walz on CNN

In the latest attempt to hoodwink the American public, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz sat down with Dana Bash for what was supposed to be a transparent interview about their policies and plans if Harris were to ascend to the presidency.

Instead, what unfolded was a masterclass in political double-speak, half-truths, and outright lies, all carefully curated to mislead voters.

Kamala Harris made it clear during the interview that she has no intention of moderating her extreme positions. When asked if her values had changed, she proudly declared, “My values have not changed.” And that’s exactly the problem.

Harris’s values include support for mass amnesty for illegal immigrants, ending cash bail for criminals, decriminalizing illegal border crossings, banning fracking, and even abolishing private health insurance.

One of the most blatant lies Harris told during the interview was regarding her stance on fracking. She claims she won’t ban fracking, despite having enthusiastically supported such a ban in the past.

The hypocrisy is staggering. What changed, Kamala? The polls? Or was it the reality that banning fracking would devastate key swing states like Pennsylvania?

CNN ‘Journalist’ Dragged For Fact Checking JD Vance’s Joke About Tim Walz

Earlier this week, JD Vance cracked a joke about Democrats holding their convention in Chicago so that Tim Walz would be able to say he’s been in a war zone.

Hilariously, a CNN reporter took the comment at face value and ‘fact checked’ it as wrong.

She did a journalism. Hard hitting research.
