InfoWars:
Network slammed for encouraging violence with bizarre report.
CNN has been criticized for airing a report which revealed that an Obama appointee would become president if Donald Trump was killed during an attack on the inauguration tomorrow.
Entitled Disaster could put Obama cabinet member in Oval Office, the report admits that there is no specific threat targeting the inauguration, but goes on to speculate about “who would be in charge if an attack hit the incoming president….just as the transfer of power is underway”.
An individual named the “designated presidential successor” will not attend the inauguration as a security precaution, “but it won’t be a Trump cabinet secretary….it will be an Obama appointee,” reports CNN.
And only they can see the documents.
Anybody remember Gen. Alexander Haig? He was up on this sort of stuff too!
(Fer you younguns’ Haig was sec. state for Pres. Reagan (Peace be upon Him) who once jumped his-self over V. Pres. in succession but got an “A” for trying).
Seriously, when are we going to nip this tit-for-tat sh&& on the part of these phony newswhores?
Have Trump sworn in TODAY, then it would be all over but the crying.
It’s time Trump sent a message and removed all of CNN’s press credentials for 100 days. The other networks wouldn’t say boo because it would give them time to steal away whatever audience CNN has.
WRONG! Look it up, Mike Pence becomes president.
Here’s Breitbart’s link via The Bullpen as well:

I thought Paul Ryan gets a piece of that action? lol
What happens if a candidate dies or becomes incapacitated?
If that candidate dies or becomes incapacitated between the general election and the meeting of electors individual states may pass laws on the subject, but no federal law proscribes how electors must vote in that situation. In 1872, when Horace Greeley passed away between election day and the meeting of electors, the electors who were slated to vote for Greeley voted for various candidates, including Greeley. The votes cast for Greeley were not counted due to a House resolution passed regarding the matter. See the full Electoral College vote counts for President and Vice President in the 1872 election.
As to a candidate who dies or becomes incapacitated between the meeting of electors and the counting of electoral votes in Congress, the Constitution is silent on whether this candidate meets the definition of “President elect” or “Vice President elect.” If the candidate with a majority of the electoral votes is considered “President elect,” even before the counting of electoral votes in Congress, Section 3 of the 20th Amendment applies. Section 3 of the 20th Amendment states that the Vice President elect will become President if the President elect dies or becomes incapacitated.
If a winning Presidential candidate dies or becomes incapacitated between the counting of electoral votes in Congress and the inauguration, the Vice President elect will become President, according to Section 3 of the 20th Amendment.
What I got out of the story is their praying for some cataclysmic event that takes everyone out that’s in the chain of succession. These people need to be dealt with. It’s a veiled threat.
See? Professor old_oaks just told y’all.
CNN is just tripping serious balls right now. 😀
Bad_Brad- They’re telegraphing the crazies in their audience.
Ok so it’s their entire audience, but still… Some of them may need to replace the aluminum foil hats.
We’ve had an unelected homosexual moslem drug-addicted Kenyan for the past 4 years and nobody seemed to give a shit – why the interest now?
Curiouser and curiouser.
“You’re entering … ‘The Twilight Zone’ …”
These klowns fever dreams have taken on a “wet” dimension.
izlamo delenda est …
IF TRUMP IS KILLED DURING INAUGURATION, OBAMA APPOINTEE WOULD BE PRESIDENT provided the liberals won the ensuing revolt.
There, fixed it for ya CNN.
See-this is “fake news” right here! CNN gets to PICK the next President if something happens. Didn’t we all learn that in school!
They would have to take out Trump,Pence,and Ryan all at the same time,in order for a dem to be president;Patrick Leahy,the Senate Pro-Temp.
So what they are saying is that Kieffer Sutherland becomes president?
TV has set the example for us as it is real, isn’t it?
Read the story carefully, folks.
The CNN postulate is that a catastrophe wipes out everyone, including Congress, before the Oath of Office.
With all due respect, making this bullsh!t theory a thread here just spreads CNN’s dog whistle farther and wider. 🙁
It doesn’t matter what any law says, it’ll be decided by SCOTUS after the justices pick which lawsuit they want to hear.
MJA
I think things are reaching a boiling point. This is all over my FB today.

CNN perpetuating and encouraging division just as Obama has for the last 8 years.
CNN the Communist News Network, actually Pravda wouldn’t print what these fake news pricks spout.
Ban them from news conferences and the traveling media.
“…if an attack hit the incoming president….just as the transfer of power is underway…”
For a bunch of prog atheists, these people sure do rely on miraculous timing, old texts and faith in an avenging savior.
Although I still hope for a lightning bolt on the golf course, of course.

> provided the liberals won the ensuing revolt
Eight years of Obama, et al, and a rigged election guaranteeing another Clinton at the top of the ballot — the pits in the La-Z-Boy cushions are so deep, even light can’t escape.
This shows their desperation and insanity.
Let’s kick them while they are down.
Zapped on the golf course? RAT TURDS!
Sorry, it was “RAT FARTS!”
In other news, MSLSD specuales that if CNN headquarters were bombed, all of CNN’s viewers would tune in to MSLSD.
“The Pajama Boy Rebellion”
Nothing like inciting civil war when your numbers are depleted, the momentum is against you and your opponents have exhausted all patience with dealing with your selfish petulance.
This is the Stupid that will go to their graves still admiring the Empty Chair
Trump could have gained favor and credibility with everyone by limiting the inauguration to a small privately held televised gathering and saving the taxpayers millions of dollars. Where were his advisors on this?
Pah!
Bunch of retards
If somebody tries something, then they say “It was a joke!”
If a bunch of those bastards were pulled out of the building and hung, they might not be so quick to imply that someone could ‘save the Union’ by killing a President-elect.
I agree, it’s a clear incitement to their Lunatic Fringe audience. They’re hoping for at least one Hinkley or suicidal Van Jones listener with a death wish.
Time for CNN to be “corrected “.
No more WH press corps admittance.
No more travel.
No more access of any kind. To any Fed officials, down to the lowliest UnderSecretary. And no more interviews and no more Sunday talk show bookings.
Reduce CNN to having to ask to replay exclusives from Breitbart.
They can try to subsist on Sports, diet fads and Hollywood gossip.
I’d like to take a flamethrower to that building, wherever CNN is housed, and burn it to the ground. They just don’t want President Trump to fail, they want America destroyed. Man, I wish I was a billionaire, I’d go after everyone of those scumbags and expose them
for what they really are. Pity we don’t have a George Soros on our side willing to destroy these sleazebags.
CNN, you’re like 8 years too late with your wishful thinking. Now it’s time for you to STFU and drop dead.
Reckless and suicidal blatherings. If either elect gets hurt you can bet it won’t be safe on the streets for reporters….it’ll be open season on their asses.
Crap News Network should be gone.
