“We have just learned that [Trump] did hold foreign bank accounts the entire time that he was in office…”
-- CNN Live this morning
The fact that the news media, any news media, can present this shit as if it's some sort of surprising new information is a measure of just how much the modern Press has utterly failed civilization.
@TrueBloodNet @Stonekettle Yes, those of us paying attention have known for years that TFG is deeply in hock to Deutsche Bank.
@Stonekettle they have failed and this is one job where you don't get a shot at redemption
@Stonekettle the "we have just learned" statement is all you need for their self-own
@Stonekettle The corporate news media is "corporate" first and only "news" second. They wanted those unnecessary Trump tax cuts for the wealthy and Trump's dumpster fires for the ratings more than they cared about the health of America's democracy. Then there were those cowards who cared more about preserving their "access" than doing investigative reporting.
@Stonekettle This is the OLDEST news. We've known this for years. His Chinese accounts, his Russian Deutsche Bank accounts. The most irritating part is these facts all flow out of the news cycle and the media just moves on from it.
They have to pound on it again and again and again until accountability is held.
@Stonekettle I 'hope' they mean they now have proof... but I gave up on cable news - ALL cable news - years ago.
