President Donald Trump's fired national security adviser has refused to hand over files to a Senate panel probing alleged Russian political meddling.
Michael Flynn invoked his legal right against self-incrimination, his lawyers told the committee.


But by saying you might self incriminate you are actually incriminating yourself by admitting you might incriminate yourself.

So he's already incriminated himself and so can go ahead and spill the beans. Probably Mexican beans, that have jumped over the wall

All in all it's just another prick at the wall.

Harvard Study - backs what Trump said about no president ever being treated do badly.

"That said, the coverage of some news organizations was so negative, according to the Harvard study, that it seems hard to argue that the coverage was anywhere near a neutral presentation of facts. Assessing the tone of news coverage, the Harvard researchers found that CNN's Trump coverage was 93 percent negative, and seven percent positive. The researchers found the same numbers for NBC."

http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/byron-york-harva...

Currently even Trump's worst enemies are backing down from the grounds for impeachment position - the evidence is simply not there - it is all incestuous media/sources/leaks innuendo st stirring.

Yet the same news outlets never hung Obama out to dry - who arguably did at least 25 'more impeachable' things than Trump.

No - it simply shows that there weren't many positive things for the media to say about his first 100 days in office.

I don't recall you getting upset when proof was published that the media incorrectly reported Corbyn's views the majority of the time- http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/jere...

He didn't say that though, did he.

“No politician in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly.”

Yet more narcissistic BS from someone who should be attempting to run his country and stop blaming everyone under the sun because he's now finding the job a bit difficult.

I liked Dan Snow's response to Trumps pathetic claim:-
Well, the Emperor Valerian was captured in battle, enslaved, used as a foot-stool, forced to drink molten gold and then skinned and stuffed

And from the actual study (they make a number of other points about the press coverage too):

"Have the mainstream media covered Trump in a fair and balanced way? That question cannot be answered definitively in the absence of an agreed-upon version of “reality” against which to compare Trump’s coverage. Any such assessment would also have to weigh the news media’s preference for the negative, a tendency in place long before Trump became president. Given that tendency, the fact that Trump has received more negative coverage than his predecessor is hardly surprising. The early days of his presidency have been marked by far more missteps and miss-hits, often self-inflicted, than any presidency in memory, perhaps ever."

If he truly is innocent, why doesn't he just round up everyone in his staff and including himself, go under oath before questioning? I know this is a bit like the silly 'nothing to hide, nothing to fear' but if he is this wound up by it, surely it's a better solution?!

So when Trump messes up, Bigly, or says things that just aren't true, If they are reported correctly (and hence are negative) thats wrong?

Oh and have you actually read the list of 25 "impeachable things"?

Birth certificate
President Obama finally released a birth certificate image after years of questions, but no one was allowed to test its authenticity, other than NBC’s Savannah Guthrie, who claimed she “felt the raised seal” on the actual document.

Questions persisted and Lord Christopher Monckton, a former policy adviser to British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, called it “plainly a forgery.”

“It appears in layers on the screen in such a way you can remove quite separately each of the individual dates,” Monckton said. “You use Adobe Illustrator and each of the individual dates is in its own separate layer. This thing has been fabricated.”

At a news conference in December 2016, Maricopa County, Arizona, Sheriff Joe Arpaio, the only law enforcement officer to formally investigate the allegations of fraud, presented evidence that he said proves the image of the birth document posted by the White House was fraudulent.
Just wow. Apparently Obama sent his birth certificate round as an Adobe Illustrator file with the layers he used to edit it still intact. Right. Sounds legit laughlaughlaughlaugh

Quality news source.... I suggest you increase your standards a little.
