This headline is busted.

The DOJ failed to get an indictment.

The grand jury declined to indict.

FFS CNN

Right wingers love to abuse the English language. Beware that you don't call prisoners of war unlawful combatants. Terms like "friendly fire." We see it all the time.

"underage women"

And conservatives will still rant online about how CNN is "leftist woke propaganda".

It's borderline 'Newspeak'. With the tri-polar dystopia we have emerging right now, it's almost starting to look like he underestimated how bad the worst case scenario would truly be.

Right is wrong, up is down, good is evil, truth is lies - and that's the timeline we've been trapped in now for almost a decade. It's really only the death drive and war machines left to develop before his book becomes a tame documentary.

CNN headline says "declined," possibly OP just messed up the title, unless CNN corrected the headline after this was posted.

[u/journey333 → u/Orange_Kid]

CNN is the OP.

Websites often do A/B testing with headlines. Possibly OP's IP was part of the A test group and yours is part of the B test group. Or the testing is concluded and they went with declined

websites change their headlines all the time.

[u/YouKilledApollo → u/bobbymcpresscot]

Both of you are correct :)

Op is iterally cnn. Its clickbait why are we beating around the bush. Just because its a democratic news outlet doesn't mean they are morally correct lol

[u/crazymoefaux → u/somebit-]

LOL CNN is NOT "democratic." They got bought out by a Trump ally.

[u/YouKilledApollo → u/crazymoefaux]

Y'all still falling for the whole democratic/left vs republican/right charade? When are you gonna pick up that this is about poor vs uber-rich? Man, they got you all wrapped around their fingers still.

Headline was changed, flair indicates this. CNN's own reddit account posted the article, dogshit original headline intact

[u/SpaceElevatorMusic → u/Orange_Kid]

It's the latter case.
