    Protesting is not obstruction.
    Confronting elected officials in public is not obstruction.

    The Democrats are already applying pressure to impeach but they aren't in power. It's all up to the Republicans at this point.
    Waters called on the public to confront, in public, those public officials they disagree with. She never said to get violent, send bombs, block their access to their offices, intercept their mail, etc. Nothing illegal.

    If any confrontation gets out of hand, say in a restaurant, the owner, or anyone else can call the police to restore order.

    Let's be clear I don't believe Trump, his cabinet, or any elected Republican officials have anything to do with the sending of these bombs.
    However, they certainly, in my opinion, bear a huge amount of responsibility for the atmosphere that surrounds the intent of the person or persons who did send these bombs.
    Not that the other side is blameless. There's enough blame to go around.
    But again the lion's share of the responsibility falls on Trump and those who support him. Trump has attacked too many people and institutions to name here...I've posted some of that before. He promotes division, violence, lies, and racism.
    Let's remember a media institution was attacked, whether you agree with their coverage or not, a media outlet was sent a bomb. This, after another media institution had one of it's reporters dismembered, while still alive, and killed in secret.

    Trump called for unity after these bombs were discovered and condemned the action...and the next day he attacked the media!
    He blamed the media!
    This after the same media has documented over 5,000 lies by Trump.
    You don't have to believe the media, just watch his mouth move yourself.
    Some of the latest:
    • He's going to give the middle class a 10% tax cut before the end of October. Something that's impossible to do as Congress, who makes the tax laws, isn't even in session.
    • There are Middle Easterners hiding in the Central American caravan, Really? Let's see them.
    • Ending the Saudi Arabian arms deal will cost 40,000 jobs. No, 450,000 jobs. No, wait 500,000 jobs. No, 600,000 jobs. No, over a million jobs! And people believe him!
    ....And the media is fake.

    Let's also remember that besides the bomb attack against CNN, two Presidents were targeted. Two at the same time. This has never happened in our history.

    So let's see CNN goes on TV to say that words matter. But they only direct that message to President Trump.

    Not even a half assed attempt at taking responsibility from CNN.

    Cesar Sayoc is his name and is a registered Republican from what I can find. I hope he is executed swiftly if found to be guilty. If only they were all this easy.

    That photo of him is from a previous arrest for assault. The guy has a criminal record.

    Bullshit, this had everything to do with right-wing Republican extremism, blaming the other side is completely wrong.

    CNN reports facts. If they get the facts wrong they admit it and/or the other major and minor media outlets take them to task.
    Now, what exactly are saying they report that is "fake". And please be specific and cite your sources for what you think they got wrong and tell us how you know they deliberately got it wrong.

    Sounds like you're copping out.
    Are you afraid to admit what you think?

    I was at a McDonald's the other day and there was an old white Chevy van with the words "CNN Fake News" sprayed on the sides. About two foot tall letters.

    I don't see how a well mannered, considerate, thoughtful person like trump could in any way be responsible for violence. I'm sure it was the __________ and CNN.
