So what has become of this guy? He allegedly spent Thanksgiving in Barcelona (see below).

And it turns out his report was accurate as NBC has basically reported the same thing since.

And no one will talk about him?



NBC News correspondent Miguel Almaguer still has not appeared on air since his Nov. 4 report was retracted without explanation after it suggested Paul Pelosi may not have been in immediate danger when police arrived the night he was assaulted in the San Francisco home he shares with his wife, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Almaguer, a Los Angeles-based correspondent, is typically a fixture on NBC’s "Today" and "NBC Nightly News," but was reportedly suspended when his stunning report was mysteriously retracted without explanation.

...

Almaguer reported Paul Pelosi opened the door himself but didn’t attempt to escape or declare an emergency before walking away from cops and back toward alleged the attacker. Almaguer also put a spotlight on what Pelosi and DePape were doing for roughly 30 minutes before police arrived, which nobody seems to know.

NBC News retracted the shocking report by that afternoon as it began to go viral, scrubbing it from the internet in the process.

Almaguer’s report seemed to coincide with theories that key details are being withheld from the public. For nearly a month, NBC News has refused to explain what was wrong about Almaguer’s report aside from a vague line that it didn’t meet company standards. NBC News hasn’t even admitted Almaguer is suspended with an on-the-record statement.

As of Monday morning, Almaguer had not tweeted since Nov. 3, either.

NBC News did not immediately respond to a series of questions, including if Almaguer will return and what was wrong with his since-retracted report.

Almaguer posted on Instagram last week, indicating he spent Thanksgiving in Barcelona, Spain.

Almaguer did not respond to a request for comment and his agent declined to speak "on client matters."


An NBC News insider previously told Fox News Digital that the word inside Rockefeller Center is that Almaguer's source was "biased," while others feel the report was halted because it didn’t align with the mainstream narrative. However, a separate report on NBC’s local affiliate in San Francisco has since reported many of the same details that landed Almaguer in hot water.

"I think they had different sources," an NBC Bay Area source told Fox News Digital.

 
This is not so stunning, unfortunately.

if you had asked me six months ago what would happen if a prominent Democrat's spouse was attacked in a domestic altercation with an illegal alien progressive activist gay prostitute, I could have easily predicted that the media would cover it up and that the Democrats would find some way, no matter how outlandish, to blame Donald Trump.

I could have also predicted that no Democrat on this board would be willing to say okay yeah making this about Trump again is actually pretty stupid. To remain a democrat, one must be able to never be embarrassed no matter what.

Democrats have turned into a walking parody of themselves.

Speaking of paradise, where did you come up with this narrative?

"...illegal alien progressive activist gay prostitute,..."

The whole entire thing is fishy. Neither side's description of the events seems to make sense.
