CNN analysts, including Bakari Sellers, labeled Kanye West's behavior as "white supremacy by ventriloquism," claiming he was a vessel for anti-black sentiments. Don Lemon compared West unfavorably to the rapper Common, who previously visited the Obama White House to perform spoken word poetry. The segment criticizes the media for questioning West's mental health as a means of marginalizing his political dissent.

CNN commentator Bakari Sellers argued that the Trump administration lacks credibility due to various contacts with Russian officials. During his segment, Sellers made several factual errors regarding staff titles and unemployment statistics while claiming it is "illogical" to have to prove a lie is a lie. The hosts mock his performance and the media's focus on the Russia investigation.

### Bakari Sellers and the Saddam Hussein Trump Slip

- **Episode:** [841: Summer of Chaos](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/841-summer-of-chaos.md)
- **Published:** 2016-07-10
- **Time:** 1:44:25–1:49:04
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/841-summer-of-chaos/chapter/bakari-sellers-and-the-saddam-hussein-trump-slip.md

In a confused CNN segment, politician Bakari Sellers repeatedly attributes the actions of Saddam Hussein to Donald Trump, claiming Trump killed tens of thousands of his own citizens. The hosts use this as an example of "brainwashing" and the low quality of guests on mainstream news networks. They suggest CNN is simply rushing any available black commentators onto the air following the Dallas events.
