Shocking exactly nobody, the ‘bombshell’ evidence uncovered by the January 6th committee has turned out to be completely made up: Isn’t there some sort of rule about not lying to the government? Or does that not apply to show trials? I’m still new to this sort of thing.
I've wondered about this and think I have figured it out. Trump has been an outrageous character all of my adult life. One who I went to great lengths and failed to avoid whenever possible. He was a man who has looked for notoriety all of his life.
What I knew , and did not like, about the man was that he was a loud mouthed publicity hound who was a great promoter of his most valuable product, himself who appeared to go to any lengths to do so. Nothing seemed beneath him. So when the Russian story broke I , like the FBI, believed it because that just sounded like something he would do. My first take was to believe the stories because I did like him personally. i still don't but I did realize that his policies were correct which made me look beneath the facade past my personal preferences. I suspect people who have not done that and specifically people who do not agree with the policies will never do that. Thus they will believe any rumor, the more worse, the better, and never question the veracity.
"Sources close to NN alluded to event XX having taken place, though no actual evidence has been presented so far. Yet, this allusion has been corroborated by many other sources too."
No lies, just chinese whispers writ large.
Cicero used to use that technique two millennia ago to get people off the hook for murder one: not lying, no making up stuff, no telling tall tales - just alluding to the existence of rumours, making it necessary to repeat said rumours without comitting slander, fraud or libel.
And a rumour repeated often enough becomes both true and truth: to the human brain, the more information is repeated, the truer it is.
These Democrats and Rinos (Trojan Horse Dems) are totally crazy. We have so many problems, people are suffering, and these idiots keep their stupid Kabuki Crap nonstop. They all need to be committed to an asylum and I support lobotomies for all of them.
The authoritarian left, of which the Democratic Party forms the core, has shown itself to be intolerant of others' views and to believe that if one is on the "right" side of issues, nothing else matters. This is how tyranny always starts.
I found Trump the most genuine president in my lifetime. Agree with him or not, he is a wild and crazy man. If the US was to have a 'vanity president', he was actually pretty amusing. And the vitriol the spited spewed, priceless. I trust Don as far as I can throw him; the fossilized Dem party after their little hissy fit that morphed into woke and the fracturing of any unity, not at all.
Peter Alexander??NBC’s Peter Alexander who glares at Peter Doocey at the WH Pressers? Good thing I was sitting down!! Maybe a temporary dip in the pool of facts?? 😂😂
Well, my friend told me her brother's college roommate was in that vehicle, and he definitely saw President Trump grab the wheel with one hand and throttle the driver with the other while chomping on a ketchup-smothered steak, which he ended up tossing at the driver. With his third and fourth hands. That's what I was told.
Considering that state officials usually ride in the back seats of their procession vehicles, I can't get the visual out of my head of 74 year old Trump "lunging" for the steering wheel. Lmfao. 😂
She made her statements well phrased to avoid lying. She had been clearly coached. What is so surprising is that they were quite aware of the truth from earlier interrogations. They must have thought the rebuttal would arrive later not the same day. Still the press was able to get the story out to the less well informed as if that mattered.
"Or does that not apply to show trials?" I believe the rules for Stalinesque show trials implicitly state, "Truths are to be avoided at all costs - unless those truths can be twisted to defame Trump".
How dare Trump not do the things they're lying about.
The nerve.
"It’s no wonder Americans can’t be bothered with this crap."
A new danger: Chinks in the narrative happen so quickly and inevitably that these stories are becoming dog-bites-man boring.
I'm waiting for the made up "emergency" by the Korporate 4th branch of government (bureaucrats) that will "postpone" the election in November....

Why?
Lying (about everything) is all the Left has - it’s all Socialists ever had.

I'm still waiting for the Capitol Police to investigate AOC's charges last year that Sen. Cruz was "trying to murder her."
I don't understand why such a serious situation still goes unexplored. After all, that's a grave allegation.
It kind of reminds me of this.

So many times I’ve come to trumps defense. I’ve multiple times posted the info he was winning at 3am in the swing states.
But....
Yes.... there’s a but here.....
He keeps defending his precious shots.
I’m tired of it.
Enough.
