The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.
The three senior guys in the campaign thought it was a good idea to meet with a foreign government inside Trump Tower in the conference room on the 25th floor - with no lawyers. They didn’t have any lawyers,” Bannon was quoted as saying in excerpts of the book seen by Reuters.
“Even if you thought that this was not treasonous, or unpatriotic, or bad shit, and I happen to think it’s all of that, you should have called the FBI immediately.”
Bannon also was quoted as saying, “The chance that Don Jr. did not walk these jumos up to this father’s office on the twenty-sixth floor is zero.” Jumo is a word meaning drunk.
If I was a U.S. citizen, which was offered to me on four different occasions throughout my life,
right now I would be thinking the biggest threat to National Security was CNN.

Makes no sense. A free and independent press is one of the most vitale safeguards of democracy.
All attempts to curb the freedom of the press is a step towards autocracy.
You can - and should - disagree with what some of them say, but you should in no way try to curb their freedom.
Besides, a bit of a non sequitur, dontcha think; I post a Reuters' article quoting the head of Breitbart, and you take a swing at CNN?

Free press not fake or biased news
I am he as you are he as you are me
And we are all together….

I believe in freedom of the press however they will not let go of what is making them rich. Number 1, ignoring other news and number 2,
fueling dangerous fires that could end in disasters, if they haven't already.
Responsibility and accountability should come into the equation when having a position of power, no?

What should be said is that CNN is the biggest threat to the current administration....
This administration is the current biggest threat to national security.
To be honest, I am kinda speaking of the tension on the streets at home.
Please explain this, Mick - fascinating take on current events.
Home meaning in the US. Not that we are immune to it north of the 49th.
While I'm here though, I thought the coverage of the California wild fires was absolutely piss poor!
I have hundreds of friends there. Of course I was able to find out what I needed myself but I found the reporting on it almost like an after thought.

So their coverage of the California wildfires is "the biggest threat to national security?"

No. Just something else I am complaining about in regards to their programming but you know that, don't you.
So you don't really have a reason for stating CNN is the biggest threat? Sounds like you are just regurgitating talking points.... But you already know that, don't you?
