How dare you insult our brave airmen and lie about the anti bunker never being used successfully. Fu@k this network.

I believe in freedom of the press but your not the press. You should be labeled as a threat to democracy and be banned from the airwaves.

Look at the like to dislike ratios of the comments here. These liberals actually seek out this information at a much higher rate than their opposition because they take it personally. Then they learn that their favorite source of spoon-fed disinformation and bias confirmation is indeed on a steep decline and still choose to live in delusion. Who needs CNN when half the country is perfectly capable of gaslighting itself -- and wouldn't have it any other way?

Go back to your tribalistic echochambers that exhibit the worst of humanity, where you can feel safe and avoid any form of challenge that might potentially result in learning, growth, or betterment.

Does your boss read these or is he painfully oblivious that more people hate CNN than they hate Trump 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡

Video resurfaced showing Elon Musk high as a kite on Ketamine or Ecstacy...at the White House...in front of Trump. Elon denies it but does he really carry a stash box in his pockets? Inquiring minds want to know!

Kyle

Elon Musk claims he took a drug test to prove he wasn't on drugs. Who do you think you're fooling Elon? I did the same thing once when I tested positive...all I had to do was not use drugs for a week...and retested...negative! Strange thing tho... Elon's test was done recently at 3:59AM... that's a VERY strange hour to do a drug test! Sorry my friend, you're not fooling anyone Elon!

Trump and the radical Republican Congress need to be 86ed from office, but it's not gonna be the Democrats. It's up to us Independents who are fed up by both parties antics to save this country for our future generations 🇺🇸

CNN is failing because no one believes you. It's important when you call yourself news.

Devon

May 26, 2025 15:46 EST

You could say Trump is the anti christ and it would just measure as background noise to 80% of Americans. No one believes you anymore.

Devon

TACO TRUMP...TACO TRUMP...TACO TRUMP....TACO TRUMP (Trump Always Chickens Out) LMFAO 😁

Actually you shouldn't believe me because "i" wouldn't believe me. I'm a liar. You believe me?

Trump is an idiot. Putin makes Trump look like a fool...oh wait...he is one!

Devon

I'm an idiot too. Don't listen to what I say. Soooooo... are you listening to me now? I just said: DON'T LISTEN TO ME!!!

Trump is trying to end a war which has cost the American taxpayers over a trillion dollars.

Jake

I'm tired of hearing about what Trump had for breakfast and I'm done watching CNN.

Kelly

He's your president...You'd rather hear about Jake Tappers book and Biden, who's not your president, then you would about your current president?

Jake

May 26, 2025 07:22 EST

I didn't mention Jake Tappers book....????. What the hell are you talking about?

Jake

My name is Jake and I'm an internet troll. 8647 Trump and MAGA republicans!

My name is Jake and I'm a hermaphrodite and MAGA really sucks...IMO!

Jake

Calling us MAGA isn't considered an insult . It's a moniker wear with pride. Like you consider yourselves non binary, hermaphrodites of the news world.

You lie for Democrats, you bury stories for Democrats but Trump is a threat to democracy. BITC@$ PLEASE!!

Jake Tappers book admits CNN is fake news. News at 11.

Mark

May 21, 2025 14:35 EST

Nahhhhhhhh that's NOT what it says...fake news! In the meantime why isn't anybody reporting about FEMA not showing up in Missouri to provide aid from all the tornados that have devastated the state. Even Senator Josh Hawley is frustrated with the Trump administration for the lack of assistance...as shown on C-Span yesterday with Kristi Norm. Where's America First when you need it! Trump needs to kick Elon Musk in the butt and get him off the Ketamine and Ecstacy party drugs and restore FEMA!

Kelly

May 26, 2025 03:39 EST

Because they are to busy speaking about Biden (the former president) than they are about the current situations

Paul 👍👍

May 25, 2025 23:22 EST

Your governor hasn't issued a state of emergency, which triggers aid from the federal government. It's not Trumps fault its your liberal governor.

Akeem

I blocked CNN on my cable channel's menu because I'm terrified I
might give you a Nielsen rating. CNN works for a political party not the American people.

CNN reports Elon Musk now compares his DOGE operations to Buddhism (religion). WOW...those party drugs he's doing on weekends (Special K and Ecstasy) are really kicking in good! Give me some Elon 😁
