IS IT TRUE, THOUGH?
After a lengthy hiatus, social media provocateur Todd Kincannon has resurfaced – at least on Twitter. The self-described “Honey Badger of American Politics” – who is currently defying the courts over a dog-napping controversy in his home state of South Carolina – is back with a bang, claiming a CNN reporter told him about an epic (and unreported) alleged election night meltdown involving Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.
Kincannon’s tweets about Clinton’s alleged hissy fit have been widely retweeted – and picked up by several influential national political websites.
One of these websites – The Gateway Pundit – refers to Kincannon as a “radio host.”
Really? Mmmmm-kay …
Anyway, according to Kincannon his CNN insider told him Clinton became “physically violent” toward campaign manager Robby Mook and chairman John Podesta on election night.
Kincannon also claims his insider told him Clinton was in a “psychotic drunken rage” around midnight on election night – and had to be given sedatives.
“She was too drunk, drug-sedated, and mentally unstable to speak on election night, he tweeted.
Wow …
Finally, Kincannon claims his CNN reporter friend attempted to file a story about all of this – but was rebuffed by their editors.
Sources close to the network – granted permission to speak anonymously – told us they had “heard nothing of the sort,” although they were continuing to dig in an effort to determine if there was any veracity to Kincannon’s tweets.
We’ll let you know if we hear any more on that front …
Is Kincannon a reliable source? LOL. No.
We’re not saying what he’s alleging didn’t happen, mind you, but we’d take anything he says with an ocean of salt.
Kincannon’s license to practice law in South Carolina was suspended last August, but he is still representing himself in legal matters. In addition to his dog-napping drama, the 35-year-old attorney is also facing criminal domestic violence charges in the aftermath of this bizarre incident last spring.
Since his return to Twitter earlier this month (sporting a profile pic that’s nearly a decade old), Kincannon has been threatening a flood of legal action – including a lawsuit against this website.
Sounds like fun!
