Democrats Cry, ‘Cover Up,’ But Can’t Say Of What

On today’s show, we discuss the Democratic Party’s new talking point about President Donald Trump’s apparent attempt to create a cover up — of what exactly, they aren’t really sure.

2020 candidate Beto O’Rourke has the distinction of the least-watched CNN town hall so far, Michael Avenatti is facing 69 years for allegedly ripping off his porn-star client, and journalists are mocking assaults on conservatives.

Listen to the show:

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said Wednesday that Trump is engaged in a cover up, then she immediately walked away from the microphones. She didn’t say what it was that Trump was covering up, leaving that to the imaginations of Democrats everywhere. That’s the key point: There is nothing the president is covering up, having complied fully with the Mueller investigation, claiming zero privileges.

Democrats claim a refusal to allow top aides to testify publicly before Congress is obstruction of justice, but Congress is not the justice system. There is no crime of “obstruction of justice of Congress.” And the president has complied with every request from Mueller’s investigators, not obstructing in any way. In other words, Democrats are lying to their supporters in order to keep the debunked “Russia hoax” alive. We have all the audio and make the case.

It wasn’t that long ago that Beto O’Rourke was seen as a savior to Democrats and a “rock star” by the media, now he’s a low single-digit also-ran, the “Howard Dean of 2020.” His CNN town hall Tuesday night was the lowest-rated town hall so far this campaign season, coming in tens of thousands of viewers lower than even unknown Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper. We have the numbers.

Michael Avenatti was once seen as the savior of the Democratic Party, a potential presidential candidate, and the man who was going to take down Donald Trump. Now he’s facing more than 400 years in prison, including (hilariously) 69 years for the latest allegations of ripping off his former porn-star client, Stormy Daniels. We have all the details and mock him accordingly.

Conservative politicians are being assaulted by left-wing activists and the media thinks it’s a joke. The latest example is from CBS News, which mocked an assault on British politician Nigel Farage, advocating for Brexit. We have the story and the audio.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
