CNN Continues Embargoing the Leland Yee Story, But Other People Are On It
— Ace

Bryan Preston notes that CNN has the same attitude towards this story as the unabashed, openly partisan Democratic cheerleaders at MSNBC, and that should bother them.

But it doesn't. So much for CNN's pretense of being about news, rather than partisanship.

At Forbes, a contributor writes of the perils of absolute power -- which Democrats possess
in California.

Democrat leaders in California today are so well ensconced in power, so very insulated from scrutiny or criticism, that not only is there corruption in their ranks Â– they are hardly moved by that corruption.
Indeed, for months California Democrats have had to deal with the fraud conviction of State Senator Roderick Wright. He was caught lying about his address so he could get elected in a certain district. He could face 8 years in prison. A month later, another Democrat Senator, Ronald Calderon, was indicted on serious public corruption charges.
You would think a responsible party would do all they could to distance themselves from such corrupt politicians. Despite Republican attempts to expel them from the Senate, however, on a party line vote Democrats blocked that effort.
Of course, the reason the Democrats did that was to protect their super-majority in the Senate, which allows them to pass tax legislation without a single Republican vote. In other words, having absolute power is more important to them than any semblance of integrity.
Then came along Democrat Senator Leland Yee from San Francisco. He has been indicted on charges that are almost too wild to fathom including attempting to facilitate arms sales to a terrorist group. The allegations read like a bad movie and perhaps some day there will be a movie. In the face of that horrific Â– and impossible to ignore Â– publicity, the Democrats finally took some action.

CNN claims (in essence) this is a "local crime story," but conveniently ignores the elephant in the room -- a longstanding Democratic habit of overlooking gross breaches of ethics in order to cling to political power.

CNN apparently thinks that's not a political story, either.

Yee's old press releases on the horrors of Videogame Violence and corruption and guns sure read a little bit different now, don't they?

Remember when David Gregory broke the gun laws of DC because he so wanted to have a grabby, dramatic visual of confronting a gun-rights proponent with an extended magazine (you know, the part of the gun that goes down)?

Well, if David Gregory wants some grabby visuals, he could confront California Democrats with selected weapons from the Yee case. Popular Mechanics has identified some of the guns playing a role in the matter.

Think of all the Buzzfeed listicles Gregory could inspire if he paraded around ugly guns like this:

The Tavor assault rifle is an actual assault rifle,
and not a fakey-fake "assault weapon" implied to be an assault rifle.
It looks scary because it actually is scary.
Lee proposed stealing these rifles from the Philippines,
shipping them to Newark, and then selling them in Africa.

But I doubt David Gregory wants to make for exciting, watercooler-conversation tv on this matter.

Indeed, he doesn't want to cover it all. Like all the other fiercely freeminded mavericks in the Great Grazing Herd of Independent Minds, he's decided this is a local crime story, too.

CNN

Heroically protecting its progressive viewers from dangerous levels of potential cognitive dissonance.

44 When the movie comes out which; will be "based on a true series of events" Leland Yee will be portrayed as an ardent supporter of the 2nd Amendment and most likely a Tea Party member.

That's if it is produced by Hollywood regulars. If it gets crowdfunded and produces by Conservatives very few people will watch. That's my guess.

yeah, the early ones did have a bad trigger pull if only because everyone has gotten so used to aftermarket triggers for AKs and ARs.

99 I am beginning to think the Leland Yee was just operating a local version of Fast and Furious, which is another story on the same subject that these news organizations won't cover. Whether our leaders depend on the corrupt subordinates or the corrupt individuals are off the reservation doing their own thing, the leaders and the parties depend on those corrupt people to keep their political cause alive. What the corrupt do on the side is irrelevant to the political mission, and it has become too inconvenient to look into it. When this type of corruption is discovered, it is ignored, whitewashed, hidden by the curtain of "an ongoing investigation", or simply denied as not having a "smidgeon of truth" to it. I am becoming more certain every day that many or all of these scandals (Benghazi included) have profit motives from their beginnings and they are not just operations gone bad. From what I know, gun-running seems to be a common theme among them, and it's no surprise. Gun running is like the 2nd oldest profession, or in the top 10 at least. And it can be easily and extremely profitable.

105 Then came along Democrat Senator Leland Yee from San Francisco. He has been indicted on charges that are almost too wild to fathom including attempting to facilitate arms sales to a terrorist group. *********** Actually I think the guy from Forbes has it a bit wrong. Lee was offering to get arms from the Muslim Separatist group and sell them to the FBI agent--who he thought was New Jersey mafia. So the arms would eventually end up stateside CONUS. Now Lee said that his Philippine source would have trouble getting them stateside so I think the plan was for them to get them to Africa and then Yee asked the FBI agent if he--"The New Jersey mafia" could get them from there to the US. Supposedly the MILF got the arms from Russia. So it is actually worse I think because Yee knew the goal was to get the $2.5 million worth of arms--to include hellfire missiles stateside. At least that is how I understood the FBI agent's affidavit.

I didn't get to shoot it, only handle since it was a consignment sale. Maybe with some time learning the manual of arms it'd get better. But it's really fat and my hands were having a heck of a time finding the grip when switching hands.

137 "The FBIÂ’s stunning arrest of State Senator Leland Yee at his San Francisco home in a raid at dawn was followed by the release of a massive 137 page affidavit. It names 26 defendants and outlines a sophisticated five-year investigation into a Chinese secret society Â— called the Chee Kung Tong Â— and its alleged crimes. The results of the investigation include dozens of charges leveled against well-known gangsters, such as Raymond Â“Shrimp BoyÂ” Chow, who is Chee Kung TongÂ’s Â“Dragonhead,Â” or leader, as well as the exposure of political corruption in Senator YeeÂ’s office that is said to have been going on for years.

The affidavit reads like a screenplay, with an outrageous cast of characters that would be at home in a mob movie, including power-hungry politicians and flamboyant gangsters. Take Â“Shrimp BoyÂ” Â— a name given to Chow by his grandmother on account of his height Â— for example. A self-proclaimed gangster, Chow originally immigrated from China and almost immediate fell into a life of crime. Â“ThatÂ’s why, first thing, I go back to where I come from: the gang,Â” he remarked in 2007. His rap sheet is longer than a prog-rock guitar solo, dating back to the 1970s, when he was an enforcer for the Hop Sing Boys, a Chinatown gang in San Francisco."

No, no, no! It is an assault rifle because it has a full auto mode. If the manufacturer wanted to put out an identical version, differing only in that it would only do semi auto, it would look the same ("scary"). Many of the gun bans, actual and proposed, are based on this fallacy: that the appearance of the weapon is some kind of indicator of its capabilities.

201 It's so hard to explain (to my parents) that it is what the networks choose to report on is the reason they are not getting the news.

Explain it by using an absurd example:

"Suppose - for a ridiculous example - that the President of the United States admitted to eating Dogs - you know, man's best friend - and the News networks refused to report it. We would have a disgusting excuse for a human being as President. Can you see how that would be an important thing to know, and how not reporting it would be very bad?"

Once they have realized how bad that would be you can gently point out that King Putt has admitted to eating dogs, and we really do have a disgusting excuse for a human being as POTUS.

207 How is it that Obama's Department of Justice is persecuting these hapless small town democrats like this? Is the local corruption so bad that the national party leadership has to purge the party?

Or is this an example of party discipline where local small town party members have to be taught that the only corruption they can practice is the officially sanctioned corruption as practiced by the party leadership.

Or is it just that the national party leadership doesn't like the competition.

Somebody explain it to me.

208 CNN is the worst kind of liar, the kind that is easily exposed but lies anyway.

After Instapundit was told they "don't cover state senators," he searched his own Republican senator in Knoxville on the CNN site and found over a dozen references to a controversial bill she had sponsored.

Another blog (sorry, forgot who) searched "state senator" (in quotes) on CNN and found over 2500 hits, most of which were Republicans either embroiled in scandals, proposing something controversial, or saying something dumb.

So CNN just flat out lies about what they cover.

What they cover is UP - for Democrats.

Jet engine quits. Unless the hand of God (or in CNN's wet dreams the "hand of Obama") reaches down and holds the airplane up---well it's going to go down when the engine quits.

What the oligarchs, as you put them, what the one percent, either way is good enough for me, what they'll be using, they won't necessarily be using drone strikes. They're going to hire all the brownshirt thugs that apparently make up the membership of the NRA. That's all the NRA is. It's a bunch of cowardly thugs who like to carry their guns because they can't walk around with their flies unzipped, and they'd be afraid to walk around with their flies unzipped for obvious reasons. But, you know, the NRA members are the current incarnation of the brownshirts from Germany back in the early '30s, late '20s, early '30s. Now, of course, there came the Night of the Long Knives when the brownshirts were slaughtered and dumped in the nearest ditches when the power structure finally got tired of them.

259 257 ...because they can't walk around with their flies unzipped, and they'd be afraid to walk around with their flies unzipped for obvious reasons. Walking around with your fly unzipped kinda means you're a dumbass.

261 CNN quoted Leland Yee in this important story back in 2011.

"I think what is most insidious about this particular bill is that it sends a very bad message, not only to us in California but to the rest of the world, that discrimination against Chinese-Americans is OK," Sen. Leland Yee, D-San Francisco, said, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

263 Surely CNN can't be bothered to run a local interest story when there's a damn plane to find. H8rs

That's all the NRA is. It's a bunch of cowardly thugs who like to carry their guns because they can't walk around with their flies unzipped, and they'd be afraid to walk around with their flies unzipped for obvious reasons.

Why, no, I don't go around Compton telling all the gangbangers and cholos that they've got tiny dicks because they have guns. Why do you ask?

269 It is hard for me to believe that when I was growing up in California, Ronald Reagan was Governor. It was once truly paradise and now is infested with regressives and their doom policies.

270 210?
Soona?

The key to a long life seems to be "keep moving." Diet? Smoking? Even moderate drinking seems to have very little to do with it. I have written a little here about my dead second wife- she was so young. And yet? When she quit moving so much? She started dying. You know, I could see it happen. Maybe she knew her heart was failing- I will never know. But when she quit moving, she started dying.

271 "There actually is such a thing [AR-15 shotgun], but they didn't know that."

I know someone who once owned one - semi-auto, obviously. He nicknamed it "The Street Sweeper".

272 I did a search for "Leland Yee" at CNN this morning. I found nothing about the arrest. But I did find he was VERY concerned about violent videogames a few years back. http://wannabeanglican.blogspot.com/2014/04/yee-arrest-exposes-democrat-operatives.html

274 Somebody must have given the worthless, dishonest CNN a reason for being so firm in its embargo. Maybe an offer to double its viewership to over 20,000 viewers or something.
