CNN Doxxes Elderly Woman, Badgers At House Over Russian Trolls

CNN reporter Drew Griffin drove out to an elderly Florida woman's home this week to badger her about Russian trolls who targeted the Facebook group she operates during the 2016 election. 

The woman, Florine Gruen Goldfarb, was unaware that her Team Trump Broward County Facebook page had been the target of Russian meddling efforts - a point which Griffin repeatedly and accusatorily made while Goldfarb stood outside of her home, defending herself. 

"You guys were involved in Being Patriotic, right?" Griffin asked, referring to the Facebook group flagged as one Russia's troll accounts. "Very. Very patriotic, but not--" Goldfarb replied, before Griffin cut her off: "Being Patriotic was the group that contacted and helped to organize some of these activities," the CNN host interjected. 

After the two argued over Russians for nearly two minutes, a flustered Goldfarb walks back into her house.

The Russian group "Being Patriotic" was detailed in last Friday's indictment of 13 Russian nationals and 3 corporations. 

Goldfarb and members of her Facebook group attended a Fort Lauderdale rally held in a series of events organized by the Russian group. 

As Chuck Ross of the Daily Caller notes, it is unclear exactly what Griffin hoped to accomplish with the interview:

Goldfarb was more focused on who actually attended her rallies.

“Those people weren’t Russians. I don’t go with Russians,” she said at one point.

“Those people that were with me were all Trump supporters,” she added.

“And all apparently following the direction of Russians who were actually infiltrating,” Griffin replied.

“B.S.,” said Goldfarb.

CNN's stalking and harassing of Goldfarb has not gone over well on social media:

Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino asked if CNN is going to show up next at Joy Reid's house, as the MSNBC host was heavily favorted by Russian trolls - which retweeted her content 267 times.

Everyday folks are waking up to a war they never even knew was ongoing. 

 

The 'Cruz' incident is the latest.

 

Not the last.

 

Don't hear the young 'survivors' screaming about all the dead black/brown/white aborted fetuses. 

 

More of those taken out in a day (every day 365) than any mass shooting.

 

But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate . . .

Her county definitely has bigger problems than $4-per-hour Russian trolls, with one of them being the loss of constitutional liberties, protected by the First and Fourth Amendments to the US Constitution. This piece gets at the underlying reason for all of this: Democrats see this as a way to make themselves look partriotic in the face of Trump's America First anti-globalism. Democrats, the former party of American labor, do not have an answer for accommodating the shipment of over 2 million middle-class jobs to Asia and Mexico, much less to the way they undermine US citizens in the job market by supporting mass waves of wage-cutting, job-displacing immigration. Some of us are old enough to remember the Eighties, when Democrats often critiqued Republicans for being too hawkish on Russia. Democrats did this back in the days before the Soviet Union broke apart--before the wall between East and West Germany came down--but now expect us to believe they are suddenly hawkish on Russia. They are hawks on Russia, but willing to give the farm away to any other country, including plenty of overt dictatorships, singing kumbaya and calling anyone who disagrees with them a racist the whole time.

She is 90% more attractive than 90% of all USA Women.  At my age.. at her age... Damn she is in good shape and MSM should respect her opinions, her hard work, her discipline, her hard life... Hell maybe she should run CNN, or ABC, CBS, NBC... God Damn!

- This is not a fat woman, this is not an addict, this is not an Illegal, this is a real citizen that has toiled and worked her whole life

- Celebrate this woman and curse the damn fool MSM

That's not smart.  One thing I have learned about living around so many elderly people is that they are usually super kind people but if you want to start a verbal conflict with somebody they will not hesitate to rip you a new asshole with a quickness.  They would be the last ones to be terrified of a camera if you piss them off.  They'll start closing in on your camera with their walker and cross stitched shirt.  When do you ever see that generation sugar coat anything once you have pissed them off?  Maybe they are different in different places IDK.

Dear CNN: I am a 71 year old woman and you should come and interview me.  Vlad Putin came to my house and offered to take me horseback riding and would even take his shirt off if I would vote the way he wanted me to.  #Sarc.

Sorry Chuck, but it's quite clear what Griffin's handlers hoped to accomplish...

Remember the famous interview some time back with the journalist from a newspaper in Germany regarding where from the media get their marching orders...?

There's your Clarity, Chuck...

The Cuckold News Network really are desperate for the next bit of smoke and mirrors to stop everyone focusing on the real issues = killary's crimes and the federal bureau of incompetence.
