Report: Trump Campaign Manager Assaults Breitbart Reporter
But that’s not all.
Please tell me this is not true. Daily Beast:
Fields was walking next to Trump, on his right, when she pointed her recording device at him and asked if he still disagrees, as he said last December, with late Supreme Court Associate Justice Antonin Scalia’s attacks on affirmative action.
Before Trump could answer, Lewandowski grabbed Fields from behind, taking hold of her left forearm and “yanking her down toward the ground like a ragdoll,” a witness told The Daily Beast.
Fields—who on Wednesday was sporting a purple bruise as a result of the encounter—was shocked and shaken, barely managing to keep her footing as Lewandowski and the Trump scrum headed out the doors, according to colleagues.
Fields didn’t see who had grabbed her. At first, she has told colleagues, she thought it was a Secret Service agent.
“Oh my goodness!” Terris reportedly exclaimed after witnessing the encounter from a few feet behind. “That was Corey!” he told Fields in amazement.
Terris, who declined to comment for this story, has since confirmed to his newspaper that the aggressor was Lewandowski.
Nursing her bruises, Fields quickly recounted the incident over the phone to her longtime boyfriend, Daily Caller journalist Jamie Weinstein, who promptly tweeted:“Trump always surrounds himself w thugs. Tonight thug Corey Lewandowski tried to pull my gf @MichelleFields to ground when she asked tough q.”
Weinstein followed up with a second tweet: “Say what you will abt Bush or even Obama. They would never tolerate this type of thuggery toward women.”
Fields soon received an aggrieved phone call from [Breitbart PR consultant, Kurt] Bardella, telling her that Weinstein’s tweets were “juvenile,” and “immature,” according to sources, and advising her “to get your boyfriend under control.”
This part is especially distressing:
Meanwhile, as of this writing, Fields had yet to hear any supportive words—or anything, for that matter—from Breitbart executive chairman Stephen K. Bannon or editor in chief Alex Marlow.
Matthew Boyle, however, did call Fields on Wednesday morning to ask how she was doing, the sources said.
Surely there must be more to this. Surely this organization would not treat its own reporter this way!
The worst part of all:
Lewandowski’s explanation to Boyle, said these sources, was that he and Fields had never met before and that he didn’t recognize her as a Breitbart reporter, instead mistaking her for an adversarial member of the mainstream media.
How is that an “explanation”?
Look: Rick Tyler, Cruz’s former spokesman, was fired for retweeting a misleading video — and appropriately so. Now Trump’s campaign manager assaults a reporter, yanking her toward the ground, and bruising her . . . and nothing? This sounds like it could be the subject of a criminal charge, for goodness’s sake!
While the story of the assault by Lewandowski is sourced, I’ll note that this story about the behavior of Breitbart officials is largely based on anonymous sources. I really would like to believe that the parties involved, some of whom I know personally, would not behave the way the story describes. But everyone is clamming up about it, which leaves the story to be shaped entirely by the anonymous sources.
And which is completely bizarre, given the fact that the central figure of the story is the campaign manager for the Republican front-runner.
UPDATE: Corrected to “yanking towards” instead of “yanking to” the ground. Thanks to James B. Shearer.
I really want to believe there is more to this.

jb (8a9f1d) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:21 pmOne would expect the recording device would have at least audio evidence this indeed occurred, right?
School Marm (f96753) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:21 pmreading comp quiz!
what color was the bruise the reporter chick was sporting later that day?
a.) yellow
b.) chartreuse
c.) purple
d.) who cares she’s a pooper
happyfeet (831175) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:22 pmSomeone at NRO, on their scrolling tweet thingy (damn Twitter), re-tweeted last night Weinstein’s first tweet that you quoted above. I can’t recall who, but I think the re-tweeting person (is there a word for that?) had appended an additional comment along the lines of, “This is terrible but all too believable.”
Beldar (fa637a) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:22 pmLeave it to School Marm to crawl out and question something witnessed by many.
JD (7c41e0) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:23 pmWouldn’t there would be an investigation based solely on press reports if this involved a domestic dispute involving a celebrity? The theory is the victim (or alleged victim) might be reluctant to complain because the celebrity could use their relationship/authority to stop the filing of a complaint. Doesn’t that apply here, too?
DRJ (15874d) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:25 pmShe had it coming, amirite, Happyfeet?
JD (7c41e0) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:26 pm… barely managing to keep her footing …
… yanking her to the ground …
James B. Shearer (0f56fb) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:27 pmif the only witness is a propaganda slut from the macaca press then I don’t think you can say with any confidence that this is a for reals thing what happened
happyfeet (831175) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:32 pmUPDATE: Corrected to “yanking towards” instead of “yanking to” the ground. Thanks to James B. Shearer.
Patterico (86c8ed) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:36 pm“if the only witness is a propaganda slut from the macaca press then I don’t think you can say with any confidence that this is a for reals thing what happened”
Well . . .
“sources said Lewandowski acknowledged to Breitbart’s Washington political editor, Matthew Boyle, that he did manhandle Fields”
If that’s false, Lewandowski should say so, wouldn’t you think?
Also, she has a bruise. That tends to be considered evidence.
Patterico (86c8ed) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:38 pmi’m not sure i believe that about the acknowledgings
and bruises can happen all the time, especially purple ones, which are very common and often of indeterminate origin
meanwhile
Witnesses also report that Corey Lewandowski finds this puppy to be particularly cute.
“awwww,” said Corey, according to witnesses, “I just wanna eat his widdle face nom nom nom!”
happyfeet (831175) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:41 pmHappyfeet is just putting his fingers in his ears lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Trump’s campaign manager admitted to Breitbart that he assaulted her, but only because he didn’t recognize her and thought she was part of the adversarial media. As though that makes it better.
JD (7c41e0) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:44 pmWhat sort of man grabs a young woman’s arm and yanks her toward the ground anyway? What sort of man thinks he has the right to manhandle a young woman in the first place? That was his go-to move, instead of inquiring who she was, did she have credentials, etc.? Mostly, how in the world is this *not* assault?
The fact that Trump has not denounced Lewandowski, let alone fired him immediately, tells me all I need to know about Trump’s view of women, and the lengths he will go to to win this election.
Unfortunately, unless we’ve finally hit the turning point, the bigger the uproar over this, the high his numbers will go.
Dana (86e864) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:46 pmserious question
is any of this supposed to affect my view on who the best candidate is for to get the Republican nomination?
Cause it doesn’t move the dial for me, Mr. JD.
It’s how to say
immaterial to me.
But if you got a pic of that bruise I’ll take a look.
happyfeet (831175) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:48 pmNo, JD, happyfeet is not putting his fingers in his ears. Happyfeet is knowingly protecting a man who seemingly assaulted a woman. Further, he is simultaneously indirectly protecting a candidate who has already publicly denigrated women, evidencing his lack of respect and regard for them.
Dana (86e864) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:48 pmI see Melania’s hand in this: “Corey, I’m counting on you to keep those women away from my husband.”
nk (dbc370) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:50 pmAccording to the WaPo:
Do we want a man for the president of the United States who has to have goons rough up a young woman because she dared to ask….another question??? Can you picture any other candidate of the remaining four, or any of those who dropped out of the race, behaving so reprehensibly? Can you remotely imagine a staff member treating a woman this way because she asked a question, and *not* immediately firing their asses, as well as reporting it to the authorities or at the least, encouraging the victim to do so.
No, I didn’t think so.
Dana (86e864) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:52 pmI have to agree with happyfeet on one thing. This has not changed my regard for Trump the least little bit.
nk (dbc370) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:53 pmnonono do NOT try and drag me into this sordid affair
i’m a completely innocent bystander
happyfeet (831175) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:53 pmMeh. Missing question mark: …or at the least, encouraging the victim to do so?
Dana (86e864) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:53 pmIt is really too bad that Andrew Breitbart cannot be defamed by the people who are using his name. From everything I see he’d have a great case if he were alive.
Kevin M (25bbee) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:54 pm“but I think the re-tweeting person (is there a word for that?)”
Tweeter and the MonkeyMan…
Colonel Haiku (74754c) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:55 pmTrump had better watch out how he loosens up them libel laws.
Kevin M (25bbee) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:55 pmHappyfeet – you condoned it.
JD (7c41e0) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:55 pmre-tweeting person (is there a word for that?)
retwitterer.
Kevin M (25bbee) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:56 pmBreitbart’s statement:
Dana (86e864) — 3/9/2016 @ 8:58 pmOkay, let’s play along: I’m sorry you had the nerve to ask our candidate another question when he was already done answering questions.
hmmm this is interesting…
It should be said though that this must NOT be the kind of bruise described above though cause people seem to be super-concerned.
Or is that circular logics?
We have a lot of speculation but not a lot of facts amidst a madcap rush to judgment.
It’s a chaotic situation where questions only beget more questions, and me I fear truth will be the first casualty.
I’m a take a deep breath and wait for more information.
Do we know if this bruise happened more than 30 minutes ago?
happyfeet (831175) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:01 pmNow you are trying to minimize and obfuscate. This is acceptable behavior to you.
JD (7c41e0) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:03 pmI’m trying to rule out a diagnosis of severe sprain or fracture.
happyfeet (831175) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:04 pmYou seem very concerned with the truth in this thread.
That is sarcasm.
Patterico (86c8ed) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:04 pmcomeone now, it’s entirely in his wheelhouse, it does seem serious enough, there should have already been an apology
narciso (732bc0) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:05 pmNaw, I finally realized: a re-tweeting person is a Fwenchman with a bit of a lisp.
Beldar (fa637a) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:06 pm>Do we want a man for the president of the United States who has to have goons rough up a young woman because she dared to ask….another question???
I’ve long been of the opinion that the overuse (by the left) of the words ‘fascist’ and ‘nazi’ deprive the words of their power and meaning, and that the overuse is a mistake – and I’ve long been reluctant to use them.
But i’ve got to say: Trump, and his supporters, are the closest thing we’ve seen to fascism in the US in my lifetime, and they cannot go away soon enough to suit me.
aphrael (e0cdc9) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:06 pmAfter all, aphrael, we are talking about the candidate who commands followers to raise their arms and pledge their loyalty to him, rather than him pledging his loyalty to them, the people of the United States of America.
Dana (86e864) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:10 pmYep. Michelle is neither the first person, nor the first reporter, to be roughed up by a Trump goon.
nk (dbc370) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:13 pmMost bruises are not a cause for concern and will go away on their own.
I have a suggestion. It involves a car door and a particular appendage.
Kevin M (25bbee) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:14 pmSay what you will abt Bush or even Obama. They would never tolerate this type of thuggery toward women.

happyfeet (831175) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:18 pmMy problem with Trump is not that he surrounds himself with goons, but that he doesn’t let them wear any snazzy uniforms. Nothing retro — they can be modern and corporate, like these:

Dana (86e864) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:36 pmit’s already 11:30
that sounds like a tomorrow thing
happyfeet (831175) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:37 pmwell that’s pikachu’s attitude to all women, what’s his colorful term for them,
narciso (732bc0) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:41 pmthat is so not even true Mr. narciso
there’s even less evidence that whatever happened was about gender than there is about whatever it is that actually occurred
this smells like manufactured propaganders to me, mildly amusing only for how it shows how willingly some conservatives will pick up the old war on women cudgel and beat a fellow republican senseless and bloody with it
happyfeet (831175) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:53 pmViolence against the press by the Trump campaign. I never saw that coming.
carlitos (c24ed5) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:54 pmHappyfeet – your mendacity on this is breathtaking. Lewandowski has admitted doing it and you are still on here questioning if it ever happened.
JD (7c41e0) — 3/9/2016 @ 9:57 pmi just wanna be cautious JD
i’ve been deceived before by these fancy washington dc media types

I’m loving The Magicians so I clickered up a season of Shadowhunters

i hated the movie so i guess I should’ve had my expectations set lower
happyfeet (831175) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:02 pmi just wanna be cautious JD
No you don’t. You just want to put your head in the sand so you don’t have to admit that you are supporting a thug for POTUS.
Dana (86e864) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:05 pmCorey Lewandowski admitted he did it.
Ms. Fields has the bruises.
Ben Terris of The Washington Post saw Lewandowski do it.
But happyfeet wants to be cautious before admitting a thug manhandled a young woman because she dared to ask a question of a candidate.
Dana (86e864) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:09 pmNaw, I finally realized: a re-tweeting person is a Fwenchman with a bit of a lisp.
I just wanted to confirm that I caught the awesomeness of this quip. Well done, Beldar.
JVW (9e3c77) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:09 pmMs. Fields has the bruises.
there’s only one bruise what’s even been alleged so far and nobody has a picture

nk (dbc370) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:21 pmHappyfeet is a Denier.
JD (7c41e0) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:25 pmam not
happyfeet (831175) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:26 pm@#6 “Leave it to School Marm to crawl out and question something witnessed by many. — JD”
I seem to recall a bunch of witnesses having claimed racial epithets were shouted at them on their walk toward the Capitol by a crowd of protesters on March 20, 2010.
Did we take these multiple witnesses at their word at what their own ears told them, or did we go to the recording of the event for audio/video evidence?
Maybe this case calls for a different standard.
School Marm (797b50) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:32 pm“Lewandowski’s explanation to Boyle, said these sources, was that he and Fields had never met before and that he didn’t recognize her as a Breitbart reporter, instead mistaking her for an adversarial member of the mainstream media. Trump’s press secretary, Hope Hicks, didn’t respond to an email seeking comment. Nor did the usually responsive Boyle.”
Lewqndowski admits it, yet Happyfeet is still a Denier.
JD (7c41e0) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:33 pmSchool Marm – he admitted doing it.
JD (7c41e0) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:34 pmHappyfeet,
I know you like to kid, but you are better than this. What the hell, man.
Dustin (ffb800) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:35 pmSerious question: Why isn’t Fields swearing out a complaint for battery?
I am sick to death of hearing about how women are not empowered and can not defend themselves. Well? She has witnesses and she has the considerable weight of the law on her side. Hmmm. Could it be she’d rather have the issue than a solution?
The jerk needs to be fired forthwith. All the arrows striking Trump for his failure to act are totally deserved, too. I just want to know why the victim just gets to sit on the side accepting her status and not availing herself of a ready, and quite effective, solution.
I’m pretty sure I heard some feminist at some point shouting how if we don’t put abusers of women in jail, we are allowing for more abuse of more women. I could be wrong about this, though.
Ed from SFV (3400a5) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:43 pmNo, he’s not, that has been clearly for seven years now.

Trump’s press secretary, Hope Hicks, didn’t respond to an email seeking comment. Nor did the usually responsive Boyle.”
My favorite part is the implied “hey, our male campaign manager never would have intentionally gotten physically aggressive with a Breitbart reporter, we just thought that she was from the New York Times or CNN or something.”
JVW (9e3c77) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:44 pmEd, I agree. This should be at minimum a police report. No reason not to make one now.
Dustin (ffb800) — 3/9/2016 @ 10:45 pmsaid these sources

if this was as egregious as some would have it
if there were as many credible witnesses as the beliebers seem to think
if bunnycakes was indeed “roughed up,” as the phrase du jour would have it
if her abuser has indeed confessed
then this poor abused and battered voice of the people, she needs to file charges
she has a duty
a very important solemn duty in defense of the press, the constitution, the very fabric of freedom
a duty to bring her abuser to justice

DRJ (15874d) — 3/10/2016 @ 2:42 amAs bad as this is (imagine the War on Women narrative this hands the Hillary campaign), the ultimate story is that Breitbart is so in the tank for a candidate that it will minimize an assault on its own reporter. This is what the MSM might do, not new media and especially not media named for Andrew Breitbart.

“Brody File Exclusive: Ted Cruz Says Donald Trump’s Voters Have “relatively low information” And Are “not that engaged””
GOP presidential candidate Ted Cruz tells The Brody File that the reason Donald Trump is performing well in the GOP race for president is because his voters are uninformed and not engaged in the process.

pro tip: try not to alienate the voters that you need to secure not only your nomination but your win in the fall by calling them dumb and lazy
he sounded just like john mccain and romney there

SPQR (a3a747) — 3/10/2016 @ 6:12 amJust as an aside, could this reporter get an order of protection against this guy? That could make Trump not firing him problematic.
pinandpuller (a12946) — 3/10/2016 @ 6:12 amNow I would point out, when there was a sanctioned attack on the huntress’s family, the daily called minimized it, taking the rumor and never biblically apologized for the slander they forwarded.

But, whatever, you make your own reality, ‘eh Dreamers?
DNF (e4ee41) — 3/10/2016 @ 7:10 amWow I knew happyfeet wasn’t right, but now he’s just sick. Cannot believe anybody would defend Trump’s goons.
Patrick Henry, the 2nd (ddead1) — 3/10/2016 @ 7:52 amWhat’s sad in all of this big mess is the ongoing phenomenon of Hillary still being given enough free passes (based on opinion surveys of the electorate) to be taken seriously as the presumptive winner in November. That’s backed up by a recent Gallup Poll that indicates the current horrible occupant of the White House has far more support than he deserves or is justified (undoubtedly due in part to Peggy-Noonan Syndrome).
Ted Cruz is too good to be in the swamp that is America 2016.

happyfeet (831175) — 3/10/2016 @ 8:22 amSo a Trump supporter dies and goes to Hell. He asks the Devil how come. The Devil says, “Because you voted for Trump”. “Oh, well”, says the Trump supporter, “at least I’ll be with my hero”. “Nope”, says the Devil, “Trump’s Up There”. “What”, says the Trump supporter. “But by all accounts he was a bigger sinner than me”. “Look, buddy”, says the Devil. “The Bible says that sin is forgiven. It doesn’t say anything about stupidity.”
