Armed with a host of narratives against the Trump administration, CNN host Dana Bash confronts Interior Secretary Doug Burgum about his audacity to support Freedom 250 events in Washington DC this year. Apparently, it is not in alignment with the interests of CNN for Americans to celebrate the anniversary of our independence.
Complaining about DC fountains being cleaned; complaining about people not being consulted for their viewpoints to permit the graffiti and filth to remain in place prior to cleaning; complaining that years of environmental studies and municipal hearings did not take place prior to the decision to repair the reflection pool; complaining about saving hundreds of millions by not opening up each restoration process to consultancy fees, studies, public hearings and various bureaucratic indulgency opportunities; a very unhappy Dana Bash confronts Interior Secretary Doug Burgum about his support for President Trump to clean and restore the nation’s capital without consideration for those who prefer things to be a mess.
.

From what Bash and others like her are saying, if President Trump believes something about America is worth celebrating then it must be partisan and not worthy of having good people celebrate it. Even though whatever it is he is celebrating would have been equally celebrated by just about every prior President (excepting Obama and Biden). But because Trump thinks it is worthy of celebration then everyone should stay away and ruin the anniversary.
The problem is not Trump. The problem is people who think like Bash. People whose raging TDS has stripped them of decency and common sense, not to mention old-fashioned Americanism.
Sacrosanct she holds the filth
Would she seek to preserve in our national memory
the premises of the halls of government
being used as a venue for a tryst?
O M G !
She’s so bad. So hate-filled I hope CNN dies a slow painful death, soon.
CNN loses money. It shouldn’t exist but it does.
It’s probably funded by the Six Ways from Sunday group. Like X
I mentioned Larry Ellison in negative light but turns out his acquisition hasn’t gone through.
I’d be happy if it shut down tomorrow. Blessing!
…cnn?
This person is so infuriating, my wife said she would have reached across the desk and slapped her. I imagine that’s why she didn’t go into politics.
Former 101st here, too!
Slapping is the LEAST my spouse would do!
Maybe they SHOULD be in politics!
We completely agree with you!
If there is a single cent of taxpayer money going to CNN in any form, IT NEEDS TO BE STOPPED!
I’m doing everything that I can to see to it that happens by never watching them. MSNow, formerly MSNBC, is even worse. And The View is nothing but a big clown show, except the clowns aren’t very funny.
Time for CNN to play that end of their world tape with the band playing “Nearer My God To Thee”. Cause she is going down.
By their very definition, slow painful deaths take time!
But yes Bash is a total crap weasel.
People who are so driven to find something terrible in whatever Trump does or doesn’t do should be grateful that Trump is not inclined to do terrible things.
How to hate a guy who wants the best for everybody????!!!
The Democrats of today, not your grandparents’ Democrats . . . you can’t live with them and you CAN live without them . . .
Un momento, por favor
(oops, watching the presidential election in Columbia😎):
the award for best sentence construction in a post EVAH goes to…the third sentence of this one!🏆😁
one sentence to sum up the mindset, goals, purpose, intellect, and psychiatric condition of the left in this country.
a marvelous distillation of perpetually unhappy people.
You might want to work on that self-declared award-winning sentence.
What the heck is “marvelous” about those masses of TDS jackwads?
reading comprehension, sir.😁
the DESCRIPTION of, as you put it, “those masses of TDS jackwads”
as written by our host is marvelous.
it’s an award winning sentence IMHO.
the craftsmanship is superb and i admire skilled practitioners of the English language. 😊
Communism destroyed thousands of years of history in China. It only knows destruction and misery. That’s why it attracts psychopaths. The Democrats are psychopaths.
Yes they are, and it is unfortunate that more folks don’t describe them as such.
Sociopath/psychopath
Not quite the same, but Democrats are one or the other.
Cheers!
Looters they are, and alongside the moochers of the establishment Republicans, a match made in hell.
They will soon be united there I’m sure.
You can lead them to water, but they prefer to die of thirst!
FWIW here’s one take on the distinction :
Sociopathy and psychopathy are non-clinical terms describing different behavioral patterns within the diagnosis of Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD), distinguished primarily by emotional regulation, origin, and social functioning.
Sociopaths are typically viewed as “made” by environmental factors like trauma or abuse.
They are impulsive, erratic, and emotionally reactive, often struggling to maintain stable jobs or relationships.
While they have a weak conscience and may feel fleeting guilt or form attachments to specific individuals, their lack of emotional control often leads to visible aggression and unstable behavior.
Psychopaths are generally considered “born” with a stronger genetic and biological basis.
They are calculated, charming, and emotionally cold, possessing little to no conscience or genuine empathy.
Unlike sociopaths, psychopaths can mimic emotions to manipulate others, maintain superficially normal lives, and engage in long-term strategic planning to achieve their goals, making them potentially more dangerous in high-functioning roles.
Now THAT is an award winning sentence! Thanks, Lee Ann.
The scurvy broads on “The View” disdaining the candidacy of Spencer Pratt for the office of the Mayor of Los Angeles proffered the most amazing resume of the incumbent Mayor, Karen Bass . . . woo hoo . . . she received the “Profiles in Courage” award!
Courageously traveling to Cuba as a member of the Venceremos Brigade, numerous times, to work in the sugar cane fields, most courageously for sure!
Praising an enemy of America, of the American way of life, Fidel Castro?
Did the “Profiles in Courage” people have a seance and found out that President Kennedy would be all for an adherent of Castro’s way to receive that prize?
Oh, I see the award was given her in 2010 for her work (in the California state assembly) on California’s budget, courageously working with then-California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger to make drastic budget cuts. I still think they must have had to have had a seance to come up with that one . . . good for down the line to somehow neutralize her Venceremos Brigade history as “no biggie”.

Pointing out that da Joos are indeed an enigma.
I always think that she looks like a sister to Maria Zhakarova her Russian counterpart (in a way.). But Dana Bash is graceless and disgusting like the new young ones. Zhakarova can be entertaining and has some humor.

Dana bash is NOT an attractive woman.
My Mom and I forever marvel that John King was married to her – he is one of our least objectionable people on CNN and we often stop during election nights to see him doing his maps and wonder anew how in the world that dreadful woman EVAH got a hold of him! He is too nice!
They were only married for a short time…and… she is not attractive and chases cars…
Typical DemonRat female! And most of ‘em are bat 💩 crazy, too!
Beauty and grace emanates from the heart! Those kind of people lack those traits! They can’t see the forest for all their trees!
No way no how. Viewing requires a huge dose of eye bleach.
Dana badly needs the attention a skillful male.
I don’t think she’ll find one. Even at a frat party.
She could take that horse face of hers to the nearest stable and try her luck there.
Would have to be really dark…
Dana, you ignorant slut!
In a vintage Dan Akroyd voice
I’m tired of these cnn/pmsnbc “hosts” mouthing off on their twisted viewpoints. Why does the President’s people go on these shows? Left wing activists such as bash are pathetic and not worthy of any ones time. She needs a good hard slap in the face or 2, maybe 3.
Hi fisheggs. I respectfully disagree. I think it’s good that they go on these shows, because there may yet be people in the enemy camps who are reachable.
A dozen is effective.
“Trump is President so your life must suck like ours does.”
What an apropos name for Dana BASH.
Steady Head Doug Burghum 👏👏
Serious question: who controls the narratives at CNN?
Where does this endless BS come from?
They’re all trolling for a “gotcha moment.”
Communist News Network
Thats who controls it
It started out as the Clinton News Network many many moons ago!
I went to grad school(accounting) with a lot of international students. It was me and a buddy of mine, probably a half-dozen or so other Americans. The other 90% of the class were Chinese, mostly from PRC, handful or so from ROC. These folks were smart; if you think about it, they have to learn everything twice, once in English and then once in Mandarin (or whatever) so they can understand it. And then back to English to take the tests. So, smart.
I get they were technically spies for CCP, but all the ones we knew well, which was all 50ish, were such nice people.
I now forget completely where I was going with this.
P.s. the Chinese and Tiawanese folks got along for the most part, but definitely had some friction.
The Communist MSM is the enemy. No different than ANTIFA.
“They are the focus of evil in the modern world.” – Ronald Reagan on the Soviet Union, c1980s.
I still think Reagan was too polite.
As I said below they were never stopped post WWII.
We should have listened to General Patton!
The amount of anti-Americanism/anti-Trumpism in the media is absurd, even the local rags; much of the print media write-ups use subtle language, but if you pay attention, you pick up on it, all of it critical in a snide way.
The Communists were never stopped in post WWII America. I don’t sugar coat it. General Patton and Joseph McCarty are National Heros!
Absolutely
Dana- just go away you are irrelevant.
Let’s not argue and quibble over who killed who—this is supposed to be a joyous event!
Wretch: an unhappy, unfortunate, or miserable person. Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. Dana open your heart to our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen
It’ll take a yuge come to Jesus moment for that to happen!
Only if she had a heart.
First of all Dan Bash is DEADPAN. She has absolutely no personality. Everything is DOOM and GLoom. Or at least this is what she/they are trying to do. Make it seem as if 250 years is a DRAG. It makes me sick to my stomach.
Good Create.
Evil Destroys Goods Creation.
CNN is on the side of Evil.
This is a Spiritual Battle. Evil needs to erode & destroy society in order to destroy your peace, hope & rest – which God wants for you.
We must stand up to Evil, preserve beauty to Glorify God.
Ugly horse faced b***h. Was just shopping for red, white and blue bunting for my front porch. Patriotism isn’t political. So tired of these commies.
Gonna be entertaining to watch their heads explode when millions of patriotic Americans are celebrating our nation’s independence with fireworks, flags, cook outs, music, parades, church services, and patriotic speeches. It’s gonna be a glorious time for thanking God for His abundant blessings and to show the rest of the world what a special, generous, and unique place our great nation is. The DemonRats and their chronic TDS will, unfortunately, be on full display. They’re going to miss a great party!
Sorry to hear that Ms. Bash. I guess you won’t be attending. Dear God, I pray all the sour puss libs stay home for July 4. It’s like a dream come true.
Dana Bash needs to figure out that most Americans WANT HER TO SHUT UP!!!
Has anyone considered the fact that this may be the first year of our real independence from England? Not the 250th.
I have heard that sentiment expressed several times. Still trying to understand what is about to happen truly freeing us from England more than we already were. I know its complicated. So much to learn. So little time
The aptly named Dana Bash.
Geez…that was tedious.
To be clinical, Bash and the left in general, are proponents of the 1619 Project and as such, have ZERO reason to celebrate 250 years of America. For one, I find their honesty refreshing.
If you hate America, its founding and history, feel free to sit this one out. : ))
These people are consumed with envy and insecurity.
……… and hate and mental illness.
I’m sorry. But the term “bitch slapped” would be hard pressed to find a better occasion than this one to be applied.
She is certainly a worthy recipient.
If Trump is for it, it must be bad, and we must fight it at all costs. It is our moral, national, and Christian duty! /s
Debbie Downer!
I suspect those musicians were threatened by the TDS mob.
Yes because shes a lefty Obama supporter with ties to the CIA via her ex husband Jeremy Bash
They are not patriotic
She’d prefer Washington to be a sh!thole like Dearborn
I was 11 years old for the Bicentennial, and it was excellent! July 4th is going to be epic! I’m expecting some great boat parades.
What a waste of time to listen to bigots like this woman. Why are they constantly going on these programs?
These people are such hypocrites. I guarantee if they ever win another elected we will be roasted if we don’t not put down our differences and get behind their President (like your supposed to do in a Republic).
All they know how to do is lie and divide. It’s obvious they have probably never read the Constitution.
I am trying to remember back in 1976 at how many news anchors and journalists were not happy about the nation’s bicentennial.
I cannot think of one.
Apparently, it is not in alignment with the interests of CNN for Americans to celebrate the anniversary of our independence.
It is often said that the left has no history. But I think it’s slightly different:
If you can be proud of those who came before you, then you can be inspired to aspire to better (this is the root of why conservative values align strongly with Christianity, “How blessed are the feet of messengers”). And if you can aspire to greater things, then you have no use for those who say we can’t. And if you have no use for them, then they have no power.
The left isn’t just pulling a misery loves company, they are literally poisoned in their souls, rejecting hope, and He gave their thoughts to stupor.
To be a liberal prepare to be unhappy, to try to make everyone you can unhappy also….to be a liberal is to spit on the good.
Happy people don’t want to change and if you wish to remain happy …. ignore the media.
Don’t watch CNN or any network news for that matter.
I don’t.
I know things are crazy right now, but it is all doom and gloom for democrat talking heads.
I remember how exciting it was for the 150th birthday celebration. Red, white and blue was everywhere. My parents bought me and my sister the 1976-150 HUFFY celebratory red, white and blue bikes.
That was the 200th / Bicentennial .
I get an F for failing to see my finger hit the wrong number key and correcting it. My bad and I deserve the correction.
The Consequences Of TDS !!!
(Ms. Bash has INCURABLE TDS, and is BEYOND ignorant.)
(TDS is a Mental Disorder, as well as, REVEALING many Psychiatrists, WITH TDS, when they DENY TDS: As a Mental Disorder.)
She and the leadership of CNN are terrible. The have lost all hint of sublety.
Most likely these double agents (democrats in disguise) aren’t going to celebrate the 250th because they are secretly working for the British just like the Clintons and other Rothschild agents…..
Burgum has been an excellent Secretary of the Interior.
Our President is a builder.
I think when Trump turns over the Kennedy Center repairs to Congress that Congress should simply turn around and hire Trump to finish the job.
Just sayin’….
She is loathsome because to her, and her ilk in the reflexive idiocracy, Trump’s winning translates to their losing.
They are a bunch of well paid LOSERS.
One I spoke with could/would not name one thing that Trump has done right. Not one.
I rattled off a dozen or so, and not one was met with agreement that it was good for our nation.
It’s impossible to reason with a mentally disturbed person.
Those like Bash are angry miserable people. They want the rest of us to be as psychologically unhealthy as they are.
Life is too short.
Live your best life and be happy. It’s a choice.
Life is short……… annoy a liberal, or as many as you can!
WTF is wrong with Dana Slash???
Who watches this crap???
To Dana Bash: just shut the f**k up.
