The majority of the mainstream media have once again revealed themselves as nothing more than the communications arm of the Democratic Party. Goldberg appears to be carrying water for his boss-and to have no problem using his magazine to publish a story that would hold no water at any self-respecting publication. These facts definitely don't seem like a coincidence. She has given more than $600,000 to Biden, but she has not donated to any Republican candidate. Jobs owns 70 percent of The Atlantic and apparently often communicates with Mr. According to The Daily Caller, she has donated more than $1.2 million to Joe Biden and other Democrats since last year.

Goldberg decide to publish such a blatantly flawed story? The devil may be in the details. Neither the media nor Biden have apologized or retracted their use of the false narrative. Virtually every mainstream outlet fawned over the nonsense fable in one way or another, and Joe Biden cut an ad using it to attack President Trump. Goldberg's claims by firsthand accounts and direct evidence didn't stop the mainstream media from running with the fake news. Sadly, but expectedly, the quick unraveling of Mr. An email released by the White House and documents revealed by a BuzzFeed reporter both contradict what was claimed in The Atlantic's article. Others who have rightfully stepped up to defend President Trump include former Deputy White House Press Secretary Hogan Gidley, White House Senior Advisor Stephen Miller, and White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Communications Dan Scavino. Sanders accompanied the president to France and called The Atlantic's article 'total B.S.'Įven former National Security Advisor John Bolton, who is no fan of President Trump, said he was present for that discussion and 'didn't hear' what Mr. Goldberg's claims, including former White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders. Fuentes added that the anonymous sources 'are unlikely firsthand accounts.' Overall, over 10 administration officials who were on the trip to France in 2018 have gone on the record to refute Mr. Fuentes stated that he 'did not hear call anyone losers,' totally discrediting Mr.

One key denial came from Zach Fuentes, who worked as the deputy White House chief of staff under President Trump's former chief of staff, John Kelly. Opponents of the president deliberately ignored the fact that as soon as The Atlantic published the article, on-the-record statement after statement from actual firsthand witnesses of the discussions at issue came out to discredit Mr. Goldberg with this 'information,' Democrats and their allies in the mainstream media ran wild with the false tale-very much including former Vice President Joe Biden. However, despite no known sources publicly coming forward and attesting that they provided Mr. Goldberg's entire backup consists of only anonymous sourcing, thus making it impossible for the reader or other outlets to actually fact-check the story. The Atlantic's editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, threw these accusations at President Trump without providing any sources on the record. Last Thursday, The Atlantic published a story falsely claiming that President Trump-the same president who has always put our military and veterans first-allegedly disrespected veterans in comments made when he was unable to visit the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery near Paris in 2018 due to inclement weather.
