UNDERCOVER VERITAS VIDEO: CNN Producer Admits Russia Story Is “Bull S**t,” Trump “Witch Hunt.”

Back in 2014, when I coined the phrase “The John Birch Left” to describe the more extreme elements of the ideology that once referred to itself as “liberal,” I had no idea they would soon boldly go where the original Birchers had gone before, and start imagining Russians under every rock.

I’m old enough to remember when the worst, most reactionary thing that could be done to a media figure was to baselessly smear him as being a Russian stooge and blacklist him from polite society.

I guess sometimes you have to cut your conscience to fit this year’s fashions.
