Columnist Jonah Goldberg, who falsely claimed on CNN that Trump wanted to execute Cheney, has issued a 'correction' for spreading the false story.

"I was wrong to say he was calling for a firing squad execution. After I said that, my co-panelist, Brad Todd made the case that I was wrong."

"I let my disgust at Trump’s comments get the better of me as this was the first time I’d heard them." Image
This morning on CNN I referred to Trump’s “rifles” quote as him advocating a “firing squad” for Liz Cheney.

I was wrong to say he was calling for a firing squad execution.

I regret the initial comment

@thedispatch Now try apologizing for real, where you don't blame the victim of your lies.

@thedispatch I sincerely apologize to Donald Trump for thinking it might have been possible that his lurid fantasizing about Liz Cheney being in the crosshairs of a bunch of soldiers might have been more ominous than it was.

@thedispatch "But it’s worth noting that a lot of the criticism about my inaccuracy is itself somewhat inaccurate, or at least incomplete, given my correction."

You shared a fake story that confused voters 4 days before the election.

@thedispatch Here’s what your apology should’ve said:

“I am deeply sorry I participated in spreading a lie. I will do better in the future, and understand if you never read my publication again”.

@thedispatch The originator of the false characterization that Trump called for Liz Cheney to be killed by a firing squad has apologized.

Trump never said it.

@thedispatch Every media outlet is reporting on the new Liz Cheney hoax.

Trump did not call for her to be kiIIed. The media know this and are purposely misleading their readers and leaving out the context.

@thedispatch This is how dictators destroy free nations. They threaten those who speak against them with death. We cannot entrust our country and our freedom to a petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant.

@thedispatch Trump on Liz Cheney: "Let's put her with a rifle standing there with 9 barrels shooting at her. Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face."

@thedispatch Bill Maher Shocks Liberals and Calls the Media’s Dishonest ‘Firing Squad’ Headline a HOAX

“I don’t like Donald Trump. Don’t lie to me [media] and tell me he wants her [Liz Cheney] in front of a firing squad.”'

VigilantFox/status/1852565201515630859

@thedispatch “He’s criticizing her for being a war hawk. I mean, she is Dick Cheney’s daughter. He said, ‘She’s a radical war hawk. Let’s put her with a rifle, standing there with nine barrels shooting at her. Okay? Let’s see how she feels about it.’”
@thedispatch After the newest hoax from the left that Trump called for Liz Cheney to be executed, Trump absolutely destroys her:

@thedispatch "She's a warhawk. She wants to kill people unnecessarily. If she had to do it herself. If she had to face the consequences of battle, she wouldn't be doing it... She is actually a disgrace."

@CynicalPublius Yes, Google is misinterpreting the rules

“. . . information must be approved for public release by an appropriate authorizing official before it is released, even if it is unclassified."

This quote was fed into google.

- Image
I fed in the longer, complete quote

“. . . information must be approved for public release by an appropriate authorizing official before it is released by any military member, DoW civilian employee or contract employee, even if it is unclassified.”

- still misinterpreted

-Image
Image
@CynicalPublius I believe that Google interprets this from an authoritative perspective. The authority is the mainstream press.

The press is using Google, and Google is parroting their thinking in answer.

Donald Trump thinks he’s all powerful. It’s up to us to remind him on October 18th that he’s not.
We will show him who really has the power in this country — and we will do it peacefully.

Pentagon access is a privilege, not a right. So, here is @DeptofWar press credentialing FOR DUMMIES:

- Press no longer roams free
- Press must wear visible badge
- Credentialed press no longer permitted to solicit criminal acts

Done

- Pete Hegseth, Secretary of War

- Image
The secretary and his staff know this, but:

- Journalists have never been able to roam free in the Pentagon.

- Journalists have always worn visible badges.

- Paul McLeary
- National Security for @politico.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth just CRACKED DOWN on leaks and fake news reporters roaming the Pentagon whenever they want.
