CNN anchor Jake Tapper’s jabs at Fox News could come back to bite the network in an upcoming defamation trial over a segment in which Tapper’s show falsely accused a Navy veteran of preying on Afghan nationals fleeing the country after the Taliban’s takeover in 2021.
A judge in Florida ruled Thursday in favor of Zachary Young, who accuses Tapper and CNN of falsely portraying him as an “illegal profiteer” of America’s withdrawal from Afghanistan, allowing Young to use Tapper’s disparagement of Fox News in November 2023 at trial. Back then, Tapper referred to Fox News as a “cancer on the democracy we have” and accused Fox News of abrogating its “grave responsibility” to be “fair and honest” in its news coverage. The judge’s ruling was first reported by Law and Crime.
Young, who is suing CNN for $1 billion in damages, sought to include Tapper’s statements at trial to show that the veteran newsman and CNN were keenly aware of the obligation to present fair and accurate information to viewers. He says the November 2021 news segment damaged his reputation and ruined his contracting company, Nemex Enterprises.
Judge William Henry, who is presiding over the case in Florida’s 14th Judicial Circuit, has ruled in favor of Young in other requests to present text messages that Young says will show that CNN employees had an agenda to smear him as a war profiteer.
In one text exchange, CNN national security correspondent Alex Marquardt, the lead reporter on the Tapper segment, told colleagues he wanted to “nail this Zachary Young mfucker.” CNN senior editor Fuzz Hogan called Young “a shit,” according to messages turned over during discovery in the case. […]

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef.
