Jim Acosta has his WH privilege revoked after this viscous assault caught on camera

Press Secretary Sarah Sanders later issued a statement that said the reporter's "hard pass" was suspended as a result of his attempt to keep control of a microphone during Wednesday's news conference with the president.

She said Acosta put "his hands on a young woman just trying to do her job as a White House intern" during the session, a claim that doesn't appear to be supported by video of the incident.

The press secretary called Acosta's behavior "absolutely unacceptable."

Trying to reconcile Sanders' claims with the above video and coming up short. Far as I can tell it was the intern sticking her arms in there and reaching. Seems pretty clear the White House Press Secretary has outright lied about this...but whatever, right?

They doctored the video. They sped it up to appear violent. It still isn't of course but people will then believe what they want to see. It's totally f**k disturbing though. Maybe I should go protest with the f**k MoveOn people. f**k. I hate those people though. And does no one get the irony in MoveOn calling for protests (regarding the meuller probe)? They started off as a group who said that lying under oath is no big deal and presidential criminal behavior doesn't matter let's just MoveOn. And now they are calling for protests to make sure we don't do that? Still though. That's really f**k

I'm sure the Second Amendment Patriots will see and understand the tyranny right in their face, and really start putting pressure on the government. Right?

It's just surreal.

To be honest, it is a brilliant move.

The goal of the GOP is to discredit the federal government. Who better to do that than Donald Trump and his merry band of criminal liars?

Base won't care. Opposition won't believe a word out of the WH. And so the capacity for the feds to act is severely diminished. This is a win.

This is pretty disturbing. I'll be interested to see how far Fox News wants freedom of the press to go.

The WH doctoring a video to support a dubious claim against a reporter is straight up Russian tactics.

Now that the Dem's have a piece of the action again, will they use their time on issues of the nation or proceed with their "we hate Trump agenda"?
