Donald Trump: ‘A Lot of Reporters Are Creating Violence by Not Writing the Truth’

President Trump told a reporter Friday that some journalists in corporate media are “creating violence by not writing the truth.”

ABC News correspondent Karen Travers asked President Trump whether he was creating “politically-motivated violence,” to which he responded, “No, no, you know what? You’re creating violence by your question. You are creating–you.”

“And also, a lot of reporters are creating violence by not writing the truth. The fake news is creating violence. And you know what? The people that support Trump, and the people the support us, which is a lot of people, most people, those people know when a story is true, and they know when a story is false.”

The president also said, “I’ll tell you what–if the media would write correctly, and write accurately, and write fairly, you’d have a lot less violence in the country.”

CNN’s Jake Tapper has already responded to the comments, tweeting, “‘The fake news is creating violence,’ POTUS says. ‘If the media…would write accurately,…you’d have a lot less violence in the country.’ Last week one of his supporters was arrested for sending IEDs to people POTUS constantly attacks on the stump, including CNN.”

As Breitbart News has chronicled, there have been hundreds of incidents of violence and intimidation directed at supporters of President Trump.

The establishment media has also whitewashed and defended violent Antifa over and over and over again.

"Swift And Severe": Trump Administration Readies Its Best Hackers For Cyberattack Against Russia

The Pentagon and members of the US intelligence community have not-so-secretly agreed on a rough plan for an offensive cyberattack against Russia in the event the Kremlin interferes with the 2018 midterm elections on November 6, according to Yahoo! News, citing "current and former senior US officials" familiar with the plan.

In preparation for its potential use, U.S. military hackers have been given the go-ahead to gain access to Russian cyber systems that they feel is needed to let the plan unfold quickly, the officials said.

The effort constitutes one of the first major cyber battle plans organized under a new government policy enabling potential offensive operations to proceed more quickly once the parameters have been worked out in advance and agreed among key agencies. -Yahoo!

So far, national security officials have reported limited efforts by Russians to compromise political organizations and campaigns. There is concern, however, that "Moscow might unleash more aggressive interference" right before midterm voting begins, during voting, or while the votes are being counted, according to the report.

The plan is the first hacking offensive to be organized since President Trump signed an August Executive Order streamlining the approval process for such operations - effectively giving the Department of Defense additional prerogatives to prepare cyber-strikes. It also "preemptively addresses traditional intelligence community concerns that cyberattacks will compromise ongoing or future intelligence-gathering by exposing U.S. data-collection operations," reports Yahoo!.

While the officials refused to provide specific retaliatory actions, administration officials said on an October 31 call with reporters that it would take more than "malign influence … trying to sway peoples’ opinion or the way people might vote," adding "This is something that has happened since the dawn of the republic."

Social media influence operations, widely used by Russia in 2016 and again over the past two years, were the focus of an indictment by the Justice Department of Russian national Elena Alekseevna Khusyaynova unveiled Oct. 19, in which she was charged with conspiring with others against the United States.

The senior official clarified that it would be direct interference — efforts to tamper with voting registration and recording votes — that would bring “swift and severe action.” The reason, the official said, is “that fundamentally wrecks the natural process that we have established in this country.” That official didn’t describe what the U.S. action would be. -Yahoo!

Russia was accused by the Department of Homeland Security of attempting to break into election systems of at least 21 states during the 2016 election, however there was no evidence of any alterations - while five of the 21 states told ABC News that they were never attacked.

As we reported last September when word that the 21 states were being targeted, California Secretary of State Alex Padilla released a statement in response to the DHS, the whole thing was just a bunch of "fake news." Padilla noted that after requesting additional information from DHS on the "hacks" it quickly became clear that their "conclusions were wrong" and that "California's elections infrastructure and websites were not hacked or breached by Russian cyber actors."

Iranian MP: US’ ‘Bullying Tactics’ Will Unite Iranians

An Iranian lawmaker said Friday that the reinstatement of US sanctions on Tehran will unite the Iranian nation against foreign threats.

Iranian lawmaker Mahmoud Sadeghi suggested in a brief interview to the news website Jamaran that US sanctions, set to take effect Monday, November 5, will unite different social groups in Iran to counter the threat from abroad.

“Iranians become more united whenever Iran faces foreign threats… political factions and Iranians from different layers of the society will confront [US President Donald] Trump's bullying tactics,” Sadeghi said.

Earlier on Friday, the European Union, France, Germany and Britain said in a joint statement that they regret the Trump administration’s May decision to leave the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), known as the Iran Nuclear Deal, and reimpose sanctions on Iran. The countries added that they would like to protect European firms doing legitimate business with Tehran.

“Our aim is to protect European economic actors who have legitimate commercial exchanges with Iran, in line with European legislation and the United Nations’ Security Council resolution 2231,” said European Union foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini and the foreign and finance ministers of France, Germany and the UK.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo earlier on Friday announced that eight nations would be allowed to maintain imports of crude oil from Iran, including Turkey, Italy, India, Japan and South Korea, AP reported. Valiollah Seif, the governor of Iran's central bank, reportedly said on his Instagram that “the US has failed in full sanction and bringing Iran's oil [exports] to zero.”

Trump reimposed sanctions on Iran in May, withdrawing from the JCPOA and demanding Tehran alter its policies in the Middle East. The latest set of sanctions will target the country's largest source of revenue, the oil industry, as well as Iranian shipping and financial transactions.
