On today's special edition of "This... Is CNN... the Most Trusted Name in News"...
Lemme just say right up: This one could have written itself. Think about it. Put the self-declared "most trusted name in news" together with former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL), whose loathing of President Donald Trump is right up there with that of former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), and what do you get?
I'd say "a hot mess," but that would be a serious understatement to describe both CNN and a TDS-riddled guy who "retired" from Congress in 2022 (effective, Jan. 2023) after having been one of only two Republican representatives to vote to impeach Trump for a second time. (The other Republican was Cheney.) And as for CNN, you already know what TDS-riddled dumpster fire it is.
Anyway, CNN anchor Anderson Cooper featured Kinzinger in a segment that was designed to convince what few viewers the failing network has left that Trump's ordered strikes on three key Iranian nuclear sites were a failure or at least not the "perfect mission" the president claims it was.
Here's a snippet from Kinzinger, in all of his magnificent Trump-hating glory (bitterness):
He declared victory before we had intelligence assessments and the worst part, he forced a ceasefire between the parties so that the B-2s couldn't go back for round two, for instance, if they needed to. Nobody guaranteed that it would just take one round of strikes. The political decision that maybe you have to go back for a second strike was on Donald Trump and he failed at that.
Where does one begin? After laughing, I mean.
Did you catch the look on Anderson Cooper's face? I mean, the guy often appears stoic while guests comment, but the look on his face as Kinzinger continues to spew was like, "Dude, what are you talking about?"
First of all, Kinzinger didn't have a clue what he was talking about. Where did he get his information? Other than from watching CNN and reading TDS-riddled posts on X (formerly, Twitter) or Bluesky (the left's alternative to X, I mean.
As I reported on Thursday, Brett McGurk, former White House Coordinator for Middle East/North Africa, who also served in senior national security positions under presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Donald Trump, and Joe Biden, delivered "devastating" news to the no-doubt crestfallen CNN hacks during a Wednesday appearance on the network.
McGurk said, in part:
As I come out of this briefing, I now know: BDA [Bomb Damage Assessment] Level Two, as I mentioned — BDA Level One, first 24 hours, looking at imagery. Level Two, did the ordnance work? Did everything go as we had wanted? The answer now is "yes."
I think from what I've seen, the 20,000 centrifuges ... they are all completely destroyed. I am very confident those centrifuges are gone.
[...]
If you add it all up, from what we're seeing, a massive, catastrophic setback for Iran's program.
[...]
Fordow is rendered inoperable for the foreseeable future, probably forever.
Yeah, so I'm going to go out on a safe limb and bet on a former national security advisor who served four presidents, vs. the uninformed babbling of a failed congressman — who hates Trump — and simply could not, and still can't, stop himself from saying stupid things.

I know we beat this to death, but people like Adam Kinzinger, Anderson Cooper, the majority of the Democrat Party, and most of the lapdog media "journalists" seem to hate Trump more than they love America. I know it sounds trite, but as we see in example after example after example, daily, it proves it to be true, in my book.
