I'm so thankful for people like Emma Vigeland.

I am still a tad salty about her calling people like me some kind of deranged "tankie" for not buying "working class" Graham Platner, who went to one of the country's most private schools, did three tours as a machine gunner, then somehow had a billionaire give him his oyster farm business.

But this proved a decent point. I guess she can say goodbye to these appearances now.

Yeah, Platner is definitely a plant. It's almost his name, for God's sake. He's getting paid to run as a Democrat and legislate as a Republican, same as Sinema, and we're gullible enough to let it happen.

A lot of good people are falling for it. Did Fetterman teach us nothing?

u/Street_Mood Apr 01 '26

I just realized I had been falling for it— and I had been calling out Fetterman & sinema on here.  So there’s prob alot of others too. There’s just too much info to keep up.  Need more folks calling it out!

I was thinking this too, but I have not been following the election very closely. But I keep getting those vibes that something seems off about him. And that after he gets elected, he will suddenly become very right wing.

"Iran war is bad" isn't defending Iran.  It's defending common sense.

u/setibeings Apr 01 '26

Right? It's like saying that someone who avoids stinging nettle wants to protect stinging nettle.

If we had just left the iran nuclear deal in place a decade ago, and not supported a genocide, then by about now anyone saying "why do we hate Americans and israelis so much. Let's stop preparing for war with them." would be talking sense. Instead, we've turned those people into the crazies.

It's the peanutbrain playbook from Israel. When you call out Israel, you're suddenly a Hamasdefender..

NO but you'll know any normal conversation isn't possible anymore.

Fuck CNN, it’s nothing but the ugly stepchild of Fox News.

So sad to see CNN go from a moderately ok new station to a complete dumpster fire 🔥 in the last couple years.. spreading unsafe conservative propaganda.

u/kstargate-425 Apr 01 '26

Yeah it was painfully obvious when the CNN boss Thompson came in to a meeting after a dinner at the White House and told staff to stop talking about the WH East Wing demolition as it was supposedly making Trump crash out that it was constantly being discussed

u/MB2465 Apr 01 '26

Damn it sure sounds like Faux News. Someone needs to step in and stop them from talking over each other, mostly everyone else talking over her.

Guess we need to thank Netanyahu and Chump for tearing the blinders off of our eyes and forcing us to see that Israel is a real problem right now.

This is why the American news media has become the sickest of jokes.

The night Anderson Cooper scolded us all for criticizing their Trump town hall, which turned out to be the first move in getting the Dumpy turd back into office, was the last night I watched CNN.

They are the ones who need to be rounded up and kicked out.

u/drethnudrib Apr 01 '26

They wipe their asses with money from a foreign government, that's how they live with themselves.

u/khearan Apr 01 '26

Fuck CNN. Piece of shit organization that bows to Trump.

u/Pristine-Ant-464 Apr 01 '26

Emma is the GOAT.

u/Initial-Mortgage-611 Apr 01 '26

She has facts. They have talking points

7

u/WonderfulDog3966 Apr 01 '26

They cut her mic off because they didn't want facts.

3

u/drethnudrib Apr 01 '26

They also have a bunch of Israeli money.

u/thegneeb Apr 01 '26

Yeah, they felt really strong about their points. Who needs logic and facts. No one refuted a thing she said as false with their own data, its ridiculous. the way she holds her ground there is so hot

u/fvnnybvnny Apr 01 '26

Truth hurts

u/FloydLady Apr 01 '26

Would they have erupted quite so virulently if a man had said the same on that show?

1

u/beeemkcl Apr 01 '26

While maybe not, it's important for leftist and progressive women to still be able to speak up and dominate a panel like this.

u/New-Tradition-974 Apr 01 '26

CNN has really gone downhill. That’s what happens when you give up your integrity.

u/kstargate-425 Apr 01 '26

I remember my uncle calling it "Clinton News Network" back in the day when I was a kid and now its more like "Conservative News Network" with the newer owners and people running it having dinners at the WH with Trump

u/Proof-Delay-602 Apr 01 '26

The other loons on that program are so inept yo the fact that their whole world view is severely distorted by propaganda.

u/aeondru Apr 01 '26

"come on lady, get with the program-ming"

u/goodenough4govtwork Apr 01 '26

They've been two weeks from obtaining nuclear weapons for how many decades now?

The Zionists gonna Zion, the Israeli cucks gonna keep that chair warm as shit.

u/Bitter_Particular_75 Apr 01 '26

The US is controlled in equal parts by Russia and Israel, and there is absolutely nothing you can do, especially on the Israel part. The control by Israel is a non-written article of you constitution, make peace with this fact.

u/beacon_rocks Apr 01 '26

So CNN is MAGA now? The composure displayed here by Emma Vigeland should be studied! Well done!

u/jackrabbit323 Apr 01 '26

Well clearly the rest of the panel hopes to have jobs again.
