Following the conclusion of Attorney General Bill Barr’s press conference Thursday morning, the talking heads at CNN reportedly suffered a mental breakdown.
One of the first individuals to spotlight the network’s breakdown was renowned left-wing journalist Glenn Greenwald. Though left-wing, he’s been immensely critical of the media over its Russian collusion delusion conspiracy theories, none of which he ever bought into.
“I’ve honestly never seen the type of media meltdown that I’m seeing on CNN. They are so emotionally invested in the storyline that they’ve been pushing for 2+ years and they know what Mueller did to it and how this will forever reflect on them,” he tweeted around 10:12 am.

CNN has 8 people talking about this & they all vehemently agree with one another on every last thing. This has been a major part of the problem from the start. All humans are more likely to err or worse if they are insulated from challenge or dissent. It’s inherently corrupting: pic.twitter.com/6U5aZqzgPn

I’m almost feeling sorry for the CNN panel. They are really hurt and are not even hiding it. Just live up to what you’ve done.

CNN should have a countdown clock for when their attacks on Robert Mueller start. It’s not long now.

He was wrong about one thing. There were actually nine CNN contributors speaking. Journalist Benny Johnson later identified the nine as conspiracy theorists and Democrat operatives:

The lack of any moderate or conservative voices on the panel was telling. According to Fox News personality and comedian Greg Gutfeld, it almost looked like a therapy session:
watching CNN is like peering in through the window of a group therapy session in which everyone keeps saying they’re over X, but they can’t stop talking about X.

It’s unclear though whether actual therapy — or psychiatric medication, for that matter — would be enough to cure these partisans of their clear-cut Trump Derangement Syndrome.
The syndrome runs so deep that the talking heads at CNN genuinely believe that the president’s decision to publish a trollish tweet to celebrate Barr’s press conference — during which he and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein had announced once and for all that the president neither colluded with Russians nor obstructed justice — amounts to obstruction of justice.
That’s right, this tweet apparently proves obstruction of justice:

*facepalm*
CNN sounds idiotic this morning, saying the Potus obstructed justice by tweeting that he didn’t collude or obstruct justice.

“Happy people don’t obstruct justice,” a legal idiot just said on CNN, with the full realization of his idiocy the moment he said it.

It’d be difficult to describe CNN’s coverage right now as anything other than a meltdown.

But it only got worse after special counsel Robert Mueller’s report into Russian collusion was released around 11:00 am. For starter’s, CNN chief national correspondent John King, a so-called journalist, fantasized about every American printing out the Mueller report and reading it with his or her “friends and family,” because it’s not as if the American people have better things to do.
“It would be nice if people read it, took a breath, took a walk, talked about it and friends and family and colleagues. We don’t live in that world,” he lamented.
Sorry, John, but most Americans have something called a life …
Listen:
Sighs.
And then CNN contributor Gloria Borger blatantly suggested that the president obstructed justice — despite Barr and Rosenstein’s ruling — but framed it as a question to hide her bias.
“So you have a president, you know, talking to his national security team about this. You know, talking to Comey about this, etc. And is there something in this that says, well, the president didn’t know that he was obstructing anything, that he was ignorant of the law in this matter, and therefore we shouldn’t treat it the same way we would treat someone who was knowingly obstructing justice?”
It wasn’t difficult to see through her question.

It’s so much fun hate-watching @CNN right now. I don’t normally take joy in other people’s misery, but after the lies and discord they sowed for the past 3 years about my family and me I’ll make an exception today. #BetterLuckNextHoax guys. https://t.co/3X2HT0ow9M

Full melt down at @CNN. Fun to watch. As I have always said, they would rather see our country fail than see my father succeed.

imagine a group of people discussing how upset they are over the ending of the first Die Hard, hoping that it might change the next time they watch it. that’s CNN right now.
— GregGutfeld (@greggutfeld) April 18, 2019
Shouldn’t rational people be happy to learn the country isn’t secretly being run by Russian agents like CNN told them?
This is objectively good for our country, regardless of politics
Help me out here
