This is ABSOLUTELY disgusting and unacceptable.
CBS crime drama The Good Fight tweeted an image on Friday from a recent episode, entitled, “The One Where Diane Joins the Resistance.” The imaged showed a character pointing to a list of “target words” that included the phrases “Assassinate President Trump” and “Eliminate Mar-a-Lago.” The tweet, which has since been deleted, sparked backlash among Twitter users, many of who reported CBS to the Secret Service.
The official CBS Twitter account for The Good Fight asked viewers if they had noticed any “Easter eggs” within the “target words” from the Mach episode.
“Hmmm… some of those target words look a little familiar. Did you catch any easter eggs in this scene from The One Where Diane Joins The Resistance? #TheGoodFight” tweeted the account on Friday.
The image garnered widespread backlash among Twitter users, who then reported the tweet to the Secret Service.
“Threatening the President of the United States is a federal felony under United States Code Title 18, Section 871. It consists of knowingly and willfully mailing or otherwise making “any threat to take the life of, to kidnap, or to inflict bodily harm upon the President” said one Twitter user in a reply to the CBS account.
“@SecretService, please investigate this assassination threat against President Trump,” tweeted conservative activist Scott Presler.
“Yes, @CBS this is despicable to run subliminal messages encouraging the assassination of the president @realDonaldTrump,” tweeted a third user, “I hope @SecretService investigates @thegoodfight thoroughly.”
In the episode from which the image in the CBS tweet is derived, the show’s character Diane “is encouraged to ‘do something’ after meeting the leader of a female resistance group whose aim is to sink POTUS’ approval rating,” according to the episode’s synopsis.
“Diane, she just used five target words in one sentence,” one of the NSA researchers listening to Diane’s call says to another researcher before pointing to a list of target words. The camera pans over to the list, which reads in part:
“Assassinate”
“President”
“Trump”
“Trump, die, fake news, resistance, Pizza Gate,” the NSA researcher says, citing the “red target words” that Diane had said over the phone in the previous scene.
“Wow, that is like domestic terrorism Bingo,” the other NSA researcher replies.
Diane, played by actress Christine Baranski, had been on the phone with a former Obama White House opposition research operative who convened a group of women (The Resistance) committed to dragging down President Trump’s approval rating to 33 percent, an approval so low that he apparently could never be reelected with.
Last year, the CBS drama came under fire after one of its characters suggested assassinating the president.

When is the DOJ going to start arresting these dirty no good rotten snowflake f__k’s ! If the average citizen just spit on the sidewalk they would be arrested this is bullshit !! DOJ do YOUR JOB!!!!
Thank you for speaking the truth….people need to open their eyes and see all the republicans bullshit……this is not what our forefathers had in mind when they established the United States……Trump does not belong in the White House, or ANYWHERE in politics because he is ignorant and behaves like an incorrigible spoiled brat and is using his position to peddle his warped and disgusting values or lack thereof….he and his puppets do NOT do the will of the people, they couldn’t care less how this effects our citizens
Wake the fuk up “TRANSFORMED & TRANSGENDERED AMERIKA: REVOLUTION will be the required SOLUTION; why the hell do you think that they must disarm “US”, the Godless, Satan worshiping power-mad NWO-elitist ghouls and their minions! The truth hurts but keeps you free!
CBS should have their license revoked and shut down!
Exactly! A point has been reached long ago. It is time for the DOJ to now hunt the hunters and prosecute to the fullest extent of the law.
People like Deborah M will destroy America. Go stink somewhere else.

Trump will get the last word against these radical left wing libtards and hollyweirds because he is right and they have nothing but hate in their vocabulary. This is exactly why he keeps telling everyone the MSM is nothing but fake news, hell they can’t even come up with their own news, anything that would be news worthy but true would do, but they usually have to rip off some crap from a low life reporter, (no real journalism going around right now) just lies, bullcrap and hate. Can’t believe they even have a following, I know they are losing viewers because intelligent people are tired of their useless information and lies.
Maybe CBS needs a tweet bomb run.
IF YOU HAVEN’T UNDERSTOOD BEFORE THAT THE MEDIA IS OUT OF CONTROL, THIS SHOULD WAKE EVERYONE UP THAT IS NOT BRAIN DEAD!!! WAKE UP PEOPLE, THE LIBERAL LEFT DEMOCRAT SOCIALISTS, MUSLIMS PARTY IS SO EVIL THAT THEY WOULDN’T CARE IF PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS ELIMINATED!!!!!!
The mainstream media has in many instances crossed the line into sedition and should be held accountable.
They should at least pull a bunch of shows.
Losing the reign of their elderly crime queen has driven the Left insane. Like snowflakes in the sun!
CBS’s door: Knock! Knock!
CBS: Who’s there?
CBS’s door: The Secret Service!
why are we surprised.? CBS unveiled their raw contempt for Conservatives, our Constitution, our elected President , and those of us who voted for him with their antics on election night when their crooked Hillary went down like the Titanic.They are NOT a news service, but a propaganda machine for the destruction of our country. I quit watching them long ago when we saw the bias and hatred coming . The unbelievable way they have treated our lovely First Lady. I have boycotted every Co. that have ads on their pitiful CBS sunday Morning. What pathetic scumbags!!
THis cannot be taken as innocent trivial. That net work knows there are nuts out there who will take such media as direction. THere has already been attempts or planned attempts on the president. THis kind of garbage fans the fire. I know the first amendment allows the negative media to print most anything they wish. But a deletion or withdrawal of such a suggestive post does not justify the article and the damage has already been done. And I am positive in my thinking that if the president appears to be winning a second term against the competition there will be attempts on his life. There is nothing, in my opinion, that these scumbags won’t do to take over the government. When you look into the past it is evident that the Clintons caused splinters in their plans to “disappear”. Articles such as this contribute to and supports such activity.
CBS must have been taken over by radicals to allow such terrorist statements to be issued. It was once a good network, WHAT HAPPENED??
CBS has not been a good network in YEARS! They have shown time and time again their contempt for Conservatives. You need to pay better attention to the Piss Poor Programming they are shoveling out. Once you begin to pay attention better you will notice things. Once you see it your eyes will open. Its very subliminal in all of the messaging. I refuse to watch anything on that channel. Its all Pro Lib Agenda anti Conservative.
CBS= Crap Bull Shit news. I hope some one goes to Jail and the FCC shuts them down.
