‘A completely false narrative’: Defense secretary Esper snaps at CNN’s Tapper over firing of Navy captain and safety of sailors

Brett E. Crozier, who was relieved of duty helming the aircraft carrier Theodore Roosevelt for writing a letter for expressing concern for his crew as the coronavirus began to spread.

Ensure their well-being and get that ship out to sea as soon as possible.

I’m pleased to report, over half of the ship has been tested. 155 came up positive, those are mild to moderate, no hospitalization whatsoever.

Gen. Qassim Suleimani, Iran’s most powerful commander, which has now put U.S. military members and overseas Americans at risk. In a long interview where Pompeo insisted that Suleimani was planning an attack — without presenting any evidence — Tapper pressed the White House administration official on what happens next. “When you are talking about the attacks are imminent, days or weeks?” Tapper asked. “If you are an American in the region, days or weeks is not relevant. “I keep coming back to the fact that you are saying it is safer, at the same time that the American government is telling all Americans to leave Iraq.

CNN’s Jake Tapper does line-by-line fact check of Jim Jordan’s nonstop misleading statements during impeachment hearing

Jim Jordan’s (R-OH) claims about the impeachment proceedings. He had four specific talking points that were disingenuous and outright false. 1. Jordan: “There was no quid pro quo in the transcript” There absolutely was evidence in the summary of the transcript. “If you read the summary of the transcript it clearly shows that after a discussion of U.S. military support for Ukraine, President Trump said the relationship is not ‘reciprocal’ and he asks Zelensky for ‘a favor,'” Tapper said. Jake Tapper catches Trump lying about his ‘highest ever’ poll numbers: ‘That’s not remotely true at all’ CNN’s Jake Tapper on Tuesday called out President Donald Trump and the White House for spreading misinformation about the impeachment inquiry.

Jake Tapper laughs in Pence's face: 'We don't have the cleanest air and water in the world'

On CNN this morning, Mike Pence tried to summon as much gravitas as he could — veering dangerously close to the event horizon of fatally constipated — in order to sell a few of those common-sense homespun lies that play so well in the heartland.

Lordy, There Was Tape Of Jake Tapper's Off-Camera Spat With Trump Toady Stephen Miller!

Jake Tapper delivers perfect rebuttal to Trump’s book threat: He wants to block it because it ‘hurts his feelings’

Thursday afternoon, press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders call out Michael Wolff new book Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House during her briefing and President Donald Trump has threatened a liable lawsuit.

Jake Tapper delivers perfect rebuttal to Trump’s book threat: He wants to block it because it ‘hurts his feelings’

There’s just one problem: The White House cooperated with the book’s author and the book’s publication. Trump’s cease and desist letter doesn’t exactly hold water, according to CNN’s Jake Tapper, because there were some 200 interviews with people in the White House. Wolff was given free range to conduct interviews for the book. Now, Trump’s attacks on the book have not only given it an enormous amount of free media but it’s changed the release date so the book will be released on Friday.

The book is Tapper's dewy-eyed true life account of 53 American soldiers who bravely fought off an overwhelming force of Taliban insurgents from within their Alamo-style fortress in northeastern Afghanistan. Though Tapper conceded that he covered the war from “the comfort of the North Lawn of the White House,” his book won wide praise, including from conservatives like John Hinderaker, who wrote that it “required an almost unimaginable amount of work—of patriotism.” With President Donald Trump announcing a surge of thousands of new troops to Afghanistan, Tapper has provided Hollywood with perhaps the perfect vehicle to stir public sympathy for the troops tasked with continuing the 16-year-old war against the Taliban.

Tapper has covered the Saudi-U.S. war on Yemen only twice, which was sadly two times more than many of his colleagues. Adam Schiff Speaks The Truth About Trump's Mental Issues And Problems In Must See Interview. Rep.

Video: Jake Tapper Schools Paul Ryan On How To Respond To Nazis And Bigots. WATCH: Al Franken laughs at Scaramucci’s ‘bizarre’ use of Trump as a source that Russians didn’t hack election. Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) -- screengrab Appearing on CNN Sunday morning, Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) laughed about an extremely contentious interview host Jake Tapper had with new White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci who attempted to use President Donald Trump as an anonymous source. Host Tapper immediately shared a clip of the almost 30 minute long interview with Scaramucci, where the new Trump hire stated, “Somebody said to me yesterday, I won’t tell who you, that if the Russians actually hacked this situation and spilled out those e-mails, you would have never seen it.”

WATCH: Jake Tapper Rips Scaramucci A New One For Using Trump As Source To Deny Russian Hacking. Anthony Scaramucci got his ass handed to him on Sunday morning by CNN host Jake Tapper. Just a day has gone by since Scaramucci became the White House communications director, resulting in the resignation of Sean Spicer as press secretary a mere six months into Trump’s presidency, and he is already insisting that the Russians did not interfere with the 2016 Election just because Trump said so. That’s despite our nation’s intelligence agencies and former and current intelligence officials confirming otherwise.

During a discussion about whether Trump will sign the bipartisan legislation that slaps sanctions on Russia, Scaramucci used an anonymous source to claim that the American people have been misinformed about Russia. “There’s a lot of disinformation,” Scaramucci said. “Somebody said to me the other day — I don’t want to say who — if the Russians actually hacked this situation and spilled out those emails, you would have never seen it. Donald Trump Jr. Denied Russian Interference 2 Weeks After He Reportedly Learned of It. Things only got worse Monday night for Donald Trump, Jr, the business card aficionado who now finds himself at the center of our national John Le Carré novel. The New York Times reported this weekend that Junior took a meeting in June 2016 with a Russian lawyer who has ties to the Kremlin, which the scion characterized as a discussion about adoption policy.

Then the Times followed up with the revelation Trump, Jr. knew in advance that the lawyer claimed to have compromising information on Hillary Clinton, which was—in his words—the "pretext" for the meeting.

CNN’s Jake Tapper confronted Kellyanne Conway on Tuesday over the president’s claim that the “very dishonest press” refuses to report on terror attacks, at one point telling the top Donald Trump adviser “it’s offensive” to the journalists currently risking their lives to cover these tragedies.

After discussing the moral equivalency the president drew between Russia and the United States, Tapper turned his attention to the president’s controversial attack on the media, which Trump continued Monday at MacDill Air Force Base in Florida. “[Terrorism] is not even being reported,” Trump said during that speech, arguing “in many cases the very, very dishonest press doesn’t want to report it” “They have their reasons and you understand that,” the president added.

Jake Tapper Calls Out Kellyanne Conway In Fiery Exchange. I Dated Monica Lewinsky.

A week of no news, no television—nothing more than books and the company of a handful of divers and fisherman. I had no idea of the storm clouds brewing in D.C.; the weather in the Caymans was 80 and sunny, the diving was clear, and my tan was coming in even and had yet to peel. It was while waiting for the first plane at the shack that passes for an airport in Little Cayman that I caught a glimpse of the AP wire story on the front page of the Caymanian Compass.

I was playing with a puppy in the airport office when I saw the headline; the Caymanian reading the paper quickly offered it to me, as I clearly had more interest in it than he. Monica Lewinsky.
