BURIED LEDE: Local CBS station reports actual news!

Hahaha. CBS did a 6 month investigation and concluded that high California gas prices are entirely the fault of Gavin Newsom & CA leadership.

CHRISTIAN TOTO: Colbert Sharing All the Far-Left Propaganda He Can.

The far-Left comic had the great Meryl Streep on his couch, but their interview time had nearly run out. So Colbert teed Streep up to share anything that was still on her mind, from the world of entertainment to beyond Hollywood’s gates.

If you know something about late-night TV, these kinds of unscripted moments are nothing of the kind. Pre-interviews establish the basics behind the upcoming chat, from personal anecdotes to promoting the project du jour.

Stephen Colbert concluded his interview with Meryl Streep by inviting her to talk about whatever she wants and she went for the voter suppression fearmongering, "the SAVE America Act, if that passes, all the married women that have changed their names are going to have to go to… pic.twitter.com/i9ax1nlBQu

Why, it’s almost as if Colbert’s open-ended question was pre-planned. The soon-to-be ex-host couldn’t bother to pretend otherwise.

“A COMPETENT LEADER USES GENERALS LIKE A BASKETBALL COACH USES PLAYERS. Bench them, swap them out, shift them to different positions based on how they stack up against the opposing team:”

General Douglas MacArthur was fired by a hat salesman. General George B. McClellan was fired by a small town lawyer. And during WW-II, US generals were replaced constantly.

You see, a competent leader uses generals like a basketball coach uses players. Bench them, swap…

Trump’s such an all-powerful dictator that there will be no repercussions whatsoever for Dave saying this. Incidentally, will anyone ask him who he wants to win this time around, Iran or the US?
