How Giuliani Is Conning The World Into Buying A False Biden-Ukraine Narrative | Talking Points Memo

Yeah, they need to sue. Its out and out slander, and until more of these people get sued they will keep at it.

And if I was a company that was under scrutiny for corruption, I might want to make a show of bringing in outsiders to the board of directors to demonstrate they were serious (enough) about cleaning up their act.

John Solomon’s fingerprints are on this. Gotta be 100% true.

Why is Don the Con’s PERSONAL lawyer Ghouliani sprouting these lies? How come no one from the White House or the State Department is on TV lying for Moscow Don on the Ukraine scandal?

Just more nuttiness, more projection, more distraction.

Impeach the motherfucker already!

You forgot: they’re already tying it all in to “the Clintons”…

Note this sentence: “It remained unclear if this was directly tied to the prosecutor’s probe into the company linked to Hunter Biden…”

THERE WAS NO FUCKING PROBE. Faux News is LITERALLY publishing demonstrable lies…again…

If I were the one suing, I wouldn’t just include Giuliani, but Trump, Trump Jr (he’s tweeting about this), Fox & Sinclair Broadcasting – oh and add Devin Nunes to the mix.

Probably because he is a bit crooked and does try to trade on his name. But, just like Billy Beer, that’s not illegal so long as Joe Biden is not involved. On the other hand, Ivanka Trump getting Chinese copyrights after her father becomes president and then becoming a White House aid and her brothers working for the Trump campaign while taking money from foreign governments are blatant corruption. But the NY Times and the rest of the press doesn’t think blatant corruption is newsworthy. They would rather repeat Giuliani’s outright lies.

Keep in mind, this is supposed to be a “left-leaning” site.

Then again, Biden is associated with Obama, and Josh Marshall was quite bitchy about Obama for quite some time after he beat Clinton.

Trump and Giuliani have achieved their primary objective: they got the media to cover their phony-baloney Biden/Ukraine conspiracy theory. Here’s a recent headline from the WashPost:

“Scrutiny over Trump’s Ukraine Scandal May Also Complicate Biden’s Campaign”

And some anti-Biden Democrats are jumping on the bandwagon. On Friday, Josh had to publish an editor’s note (“We Shouldn’t Disgrace Ourselves”) to admonish some on the left who saw political advantage. Josh wrote:

But any sort of wink-and-a-nod passive benefit from this kind of criminal conduct is a disgrace. There’s no other way to put it. It’s no about Joe Biden. It’s about maintaining a democratic republic if we can keep it.

Is it true that Eric and Junior are selling sausage made from stem cells from aborted fetuses. The sausage is being made in the basement of the RNC in D.C. and sold in red food trucks across from the White House.
Asking for a friend.

The media’s approach to it thus far illustrates the point: outlets covering the burgeoning scandal hasten to state that there is no evidence of Biden committing any wrongdoing in Ukraine. A true statement, but one that misses the point.

Well the 'point’ is to get the press to repeatedly put the words “Biden” and “wrongdoing” in the same sentence and repeat that over and over again. The “no evidence” will get lost on most people after enough repeating it. Hell, republican voters don’t trust any non-rightwing press anyway and will dismiss the “no evidence” outright. This is how the right-wing manipulates the MSM so well. They get them to use the words they want repeated to meme the electorate and the MSM just doesn’t get it.

i heard drump had the investigation on that killed, its why he hired Barr, since he is their main customer.

Bingo, and that’s why Giuliani’s attempted narrative makes zero sense. Doesn’t stop Rudy, of course.

Should write a book about it, so the NYT can cover it like its a legit story. Oh wait… that only works for repuglicans.

Bringing in China accusations now too…

Game here is to roll out a continuous string of incoherent nonsense accusations and lies at such a pace that the MSM can’t effectively keep up with debunking them and just plain gives up, treating it all as a major scandal that has to be investigated and untangled by people in authority.

Fetus stem cell sausage is very rich. Probably explains Spankee and Bill’s corpulence.

Because there isn’t any. Also, anything produced while talking out your ass is going to look rather shitty.
