The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) on Sunday night raised concerns that CNN anchor Jake Tapper may be “meddling” in House races beyond the 17th congressional district in Pennsylvania.
Responding to a report from Breitbart News on how Jake Tapper attempted to convince rising GOP star candidate Sean Parnell to run in a district other than the 17th, the NRCC raised questions about Tapper’s actions in this case and wondered if he has engaged in activity like this in other districts with other candidates as well. […]
The original Breitbart News report quoted sources familiar with Tapper’s actions, in which he — through text messages, direct messages on Twitter to Parnell’s account, and phone calls — tried to steer Parnell towards running in less of a swing district and more a Republican-leaning district. The original cites a number of sources familiar with the matter. Since the publication of the original article, Breitbart News has additionally confirmed Tapper’s activities with at least eight more individuals aware of his behavior in Pennsylvania politics.
Okay, but knowing Tapper’s hostility towards the GOP, why would Parnell even entertain listening to him in the first place? Doesn’t sound like a rising star if he’s that easily manipulated.
Parnell’s response is not the issue here. It’s Tapper’s meddling.
Why not both?
And don’t miss the CNN special tonight when the unbiased journalists explain how wonderful Dementia Joe is. Then tomorrow they have a special on how Trump is Hitler.
Tapper is likely colluding with the Russians on behalf of the democrats.
No. Russia is bad. Russia has always been bad. China is our friend. (lightly paraphrased)
And, right on queue, China agrees.

Jake Tapper is an Obama era relic acting as a journalist
Why would anyone in 2020 be surprised that CNN supports Democrats?
From 2012:
“My singular take away moment of last night’s debate was one that elevated [CNN’s Candy] Crowley from moderator to debate participant. Crowley shot from the hip and echoed a talking point from the Obama campaign regarding their handling of the Libya attack to criticize Mitt Romney mid-debate. What’s more? She was wrong. Crowley did her profession a disservice last night and confirmed many Americans deepest suspicions about the media in the process.”

Jake Tapper is following in Candy Crowley’s deep footprints.
Tapper says no, he didn’t, so there’s that. There’s only one person who can verify the story and that’s Parnell himself.
If Parnell says yes, look forward to stories about how hostile actors hacked Tapper’s twitter or phone.
Begs the question though – why would anyone in the GOP listen to that schmuck anyhow?
I wouldn’t trust Tapper for the time.
There is apparently hard evidence, not just ” he said, he said.”

Who will be this year’s Donna Brazille? Feeding Dementia Joe all the debate questions and (most suitable) answers ?
Are these democrat hack journalists going to feed Joe Biden the questions pre-debate? That is a very good question, and the answer is yes, if 2016 is the pattern for 2020. Why did the Republicans agree to the 3 leftist journalists as debate moderators?
How about Wallace! Naw, he wouldn’t do that would he? I mean, he is with Fox.
He’s just another GD Democrat reptile. There are a few around that place but he gets Prime Time – 2 times on Sundays and early, early Monday AM.
Give Bartiromo at least equal time. A nicer more genuine look as opposed the arrogance diplayed by this creep every time he is allowed to slither into focus in front of a TV camera. She is at least as trustworthy as Wallace! Hell, she could moderate in Wallace’s place easily
Poor Guy..He is part Canadian and had to learn the CBC & the Suzuki treatment…
Funny how droopy dog Tapper never questions the shady business dealings of Dementia Joe’s relatives. Or how Harris screwed her way to the top.
There’s something not quite right with this Parnell character. Perhaps I sense narcissism, not sure…. The marriage seems wierd. The money seems wierd.
If he’s running in the district he currently lives in, (could check but don’t care enough) then there’s no room for discussion. The fact that he receives texts from Tapper is a stand alone full indictment of his character in my book. I would not welcome him crossing lines into my district, new or otherwise.
And always remember, the Gingrich revolution was a trojan horse.

If some journo offered me advice, then, after examining things myself to ascertain the facts, I’d likely do the exact opposite…
