Pettiness, so hot right now

I guess this picture was of a different ship and the emails directing them to hide the McCain never existed... oh, and it appears new secretary of defense shanahan is a liar too...

 

The point is that the WH tried to get that done, even the WSJ reported that. The Navy had the dignity to refuse

 

I guess that is the point but that isnt what was noted in the original post. Why spread fake news?

Even MSNBC is trying to get it right...

"A spokesperson for US Pacific Fleet said the picture of the tarp is from Friday and it was taken down on Saturday," MSNBC's Katy Tur tweeted. "'All ships remained in normal configuration during POTUS' visit,' CDR Nate Christensen said."

 

Our moderator should take his fake news tweet down. It is a bad look.

 

That doesn't invalidate what was in the WSJ article at all. You should read it. The facts don't clash here - what the navy stated and what was reported in the article can both be true. Beside are you saying the Wall Street Journal - you know that radical liberal rag of a paper - is spreading fake news against Trump?

WH made the effort to hide the name and the Navy changed its mind and decided not to obliged the white house once things start getting into the press. Makes total sense.

 

Why would she stop short and not report that it didnt happen? Seems odd and intentionally misleading.

 

Irrespective of the picture, What about the reporting that emails were exchanged between whitehouse officials and navy officials.

Maybe Trump doesn't know about this and has not ordered but like some one here already alluded , it is about the environment that got created
Even the denials sound like they are not involved rather than it has not happened!

I am still trying to understand 'well-meaning' of this act

 

She is the same reporter that intentionally left out some of his quotes about white nationalism

 

Perhaps because the story was written before the Navy reversed their decision.

 

Does this sound like something Trump would do?

Yes.

Yes it does.

 

Her tweet - may 29th. Memorial day - May 27th.

 

that has been the real problem for a long time... which GOP senator stated it - baby sit the president?

this is a distraction more than anything

i even thought for a sec it's a planted story to distract

 

And, according to the stupid Trump timeline we're all used to by now, he will outright say "I wanted it covered and John McCain was low energy" by tomorrow morning.

 

From the article:

So what is your complaint precisely?

 

This white house cares more about insulting vets than it does fighting back against Russian interference in our elections.

Sickening.
