The Assholes are getting cocky. (I was going to say that they were revolting, but thatâs stating the obvious.)
Her tweet ait going to age well.
âThe White House has also been doubling down on its attacks on journalists, insisting that networks employ âbasic journalistic standardsâ and either ban or question Democrats who have voiced opinions about evidence of the Trump campaignâs contacts with Russian actors during the campaign.â
So CNN played along and had Swalwell (Blitzer) and Blumenthal (AC360) on and both men again proved why â45â shouldnât be doing any victory laps.
Then Cuomo had Rudy Giuliani on and yeaaaaaaaaâŚ
Tax payers money at work people.
You know who should be embarrassed if he wasnât such a sick sociopath and compulsive liar? Anyone with an actual conscience would be.
Although Iâd suspected it for some time now, today Glenn Greenwald revealed, for me at least, that heâs no longer the honest broker in fact and opinion that he either used to be, or that I at least thought he was, up till the Trump era. I say this because today he posted a piece on The Intercept, in which he declared that Barrâs 4 page summary of the Mueller reportâwhich has not yet been released at all, even in partâproves once and for all that everyone who pushed the Trump-Russia Collusion story was not just wrong, but egregiously, massively and embarrassingly wrongâagain, based not on the actual Mueller report, but on the 4 page summary of it by a lifelong GOP fixer and liar who is Trumpâs new AG and has been on record for years as being opposed to the existence of the Mueller probe on both a lawful and factual basis, before having seen any of Muellerâs findings when he issued these opinions.
Iâm only singling out Greenwald because his entire shtick is that heâs supposed to be unbiased and honest and basing his views entirely on known and complete facts, and a leading light of the âalt-leftâ (my term, perhaps a better one exists) that supposedly rejects both parties, when in demonstrable fact his definitive declaration of Trumpâs innocence in this matter is NOT based on known and complete facts, namely the Mueller report along with other ongoing probes, but on the 4 page summary of a clearly biased GOP fixer (doesnât mean that itâs not an accurate summary of the actual report, but the chances of that are nearly nil).
Itâs so disappointing that someone who used to be on âourâ side is now basically shilling for Trump and the GOP, and repeating the same basic talking points being spoutedâin coordinated fashion, cough coughâas Fox Nuz and the rest of the well-oiled RWNM. I have no idea why heâs doing thisâperhaps he literally lost his mindâbut this is something Iâd expect of Hannity or Pirro or the NY Post or any of those other liars, morons and crazies, not Greenwald. Orwellian doesnât begin to describe it.
Live and learn.
Btw, Greenwald was never on our side.
As someone said on a WAPO thread, âthis is a dry run for fascismâ.
To wit, the opinions they expressed were based on open source facts, not speculation. I.e. what we already knew about the many contacts that Team Trump had with Putin-connected Russians and their cutouts. What she said is similar to what Rudiani said about how the truth isnât the truth (or something along those lines).
Btw I didnât just write the above words, nor the ones in this sentence, and if you say otherwise youâre a liar who should be banned!
Itâs not a dry run. Itâs the real thing. Game on, as they see it. Barrâs letter was the green flag. The dry run was everything till then. Folks, theyâre finally doing it.
k
Iâll just steal thisâŚ
If i didnt know better, I think the WH is going to refuse to release the report, saying all that congress and the public needs to confirm the findings of the investigation are all in the barr letterâŚ
or theyll tell barr to react the living shit out of it, erasing any and all things inductive/deductive that might suggest an action need be takenâŚ
Well - we (many of us) aligned with his (Greenwaldâs) writings in the run up to Gulf-war II, and Jr.s handling of that⌠and his writing seemed very spot on, at times.
But that was a looong time ago.
Yeah, I think weâre pretty far down the path.
Itâs very obvious that Muellerâs mandate and his self-imposed limits did not reach his (very high) threshold. But I say, have at it, Trump! Overreach like mad and start your own witch hunt. Keep harping upon this for 18 months with your Rasputin, Lindsay. Since you have such saint-like innocence, Iâm sure you wouldnât mind showing us your taxes and sending over some of the documents youâve stonewalled on, right?
Sometimes I try to understand - really understand - how somebody becomes a âSarah Sandersâ and I always fail. I know money and power is part of the equation. But how does anyone choose to completely debase themselves with total loss of dignity and honesty and regard for others. This is obviously a rhetorical question - I just had to release some pent-up emotions today.
AT least you get it now. Good.
She feels that sheâs on the winning team.
