    ROFL!!!!! It's a "cover-up"!!!!! :roflol:

    The Leftist talking points just keep on spewing out, because they have "Useful Idiots" willing to believe and repeat any Conspiracy Theory CNN, MSNBC, DailyKos, MediaMatters, MotherJones, etc... puke out.

    Pro-Tip: It's the Law. Share that with your Leftist buddies so we don't have to be pelted with this nonsense.

    Every one of those ten have been proven false. They were all left wing lies. Time to sack up and admit you get played day after day.

    I thought it was a low point for the U.N. and anyone that took that piece of crap body seriously. They are an abomination and anyone thinking they are about good for the world is a first rate fool.

    Who wouldn't Laugh at Trumps exaggeration ? We are suppose to give Trump so many passes for his daily Lies and Bull Sh *& Boasts !

    “In less than two years, my administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country,” Mr Trump continued, eliciting a rumbling from the hall in New York City.” America’s… So true”.

    HAAHAHAHA. This is a joke, right?

    We have had two years of fake news based on anon sources about how Trump colluded and is going to jail.
    Trump and his family will leave the White House in cuffs.
    Clinton will win by a landslide.
    The White House colluded.
    The economy will be destroyed. It will be Armageddon!!!!
    CNN made a huge deal about Trump "over feeding fish" with an edited video.
    Washington Post FALSELY reported the President’s massive sold-out rally in Pensacola, Florida was empty. Dishonest reporter showed picture of empty arena HOURS before crowd started pouring in.
    Newsweek FALSELY reported that Polish First Lady Agata Kornhauser-Duda did not shake President Trump’s hand.
    CNN FALSELY reported that former FBI Director James Comey would dispute President Trump’s claim that he was told he is not under investigation.

    Yet for 2 years liberals, democrats believed, and this included corporate media, that trump and putin conspired to beat hillary.

    So, pardon me if I call this BS, and is just another example of fake news. I highly question the research that came up with these conclusions, given that acquiring hard evidence to support the contention would be a very difficult thing to do, if you could even pull it off. We are not doing forensics here, on something that can be objectively examined, far from it.

    Thing is, if I want particular results, that favor liberal and dems over repubs and conservatives, you can bet your arse I can find someone who will do a study for me and give me the results that I want. And that goes on in a most prolific manner these days. You can ever write a fake research paper, and get it published in a scientific journal, as was proven by those two academics who were in the news recently, as they set out to prove just how powerful bias is, in academia, and that they could get a positive peer review, with nothing but lies and deceit, because a pathological liberal bias in academia. This occurred in the social sciences where the liberal, left bias is tremendous.

    If russian sourced fake news was blasted here, as you said, you have to know what they were, and can tell us. I will wait to see if you can. Which I doubt.

    I keep hearing about these, but no one ever proves it. I am sure you can though, and I wait eagerly to see what you are talking about.

    It doesn't seem to be the right that has to make up white supremacists to fight against.

    It isn't as if Russian cyber attacks through US social media companies haven't been widely reported.

    You just don't want to believe it. Maybe that's for fear that you may have fallen for it.

    Many Trump supporters on this forum did.

    Fake news flooded this forum in the fall of 2016, all of it from Trump supporters.

    I had been watching the trend here since at least 2013. That's about the time the Russian campaign started.

    I noticed it because I do something that right wingers never do. I look behind stories I see that appear hinky. I want to know where they came from, who is behind it, and where the money is. Trump supporters and right wingers NEVER do that. They just blast whatever nonsense pushes their buttons.

    Right wingers here started parroting Russian propoganda lines over Syria back then. Some of them cited Russian propoganda sites as primary sources (Trumpsters are still doing that now).

    It isn't a secret anymore. The Mueller investigation was predicated partly on the existance of this scheme. Many of the FSB officers who ran the campaign are named in indictments.

    So for you to claim that you're still waiting for "evidence" is merely "don't confuse me with the facts" denial.

    And you know it too.

    So , here, learn something:

    Start here. This is the first detailed American reporting on the campaign (one which is still ongoing, and which Trump doing his level best to clear the way for).

    https://www.independent.co.uk/news/...-trump-clinton-us-election-lies-a8059696.html

    The definitive article on this topic ran in the New York Times and is behind a paywall.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/07/magazine/the-agency.html

    Here is a brief selection of reporting on this topic.

    I can give you plenty more.

    Contrary to your false claim, there is no shortage of information about it.

    And the fact that it is still going on (and I expect that Trumpsters will not only continue to be useful idiots, but (as has already happened here), they'll brag about it!

    Translation: Unless a circle jerk of leftists propagandists agree on the validity of a news piece it is fake news. But of course to leftist propagandists anything that is not Politically Correct is automatically fake news.

    Wellllllllllllllllllllll . . . the Right was correct about the Mueller Investigation having been a RINO and leftist political allies sponsored witch hunt and they were correct regarding what would occur as a follow up . . . which is a series of REAL investigations into how and why the witch hunt occurred in the first place and correct about anti-ethical upper level RINO and leftist political operatives beginning to fall like dominoes.

    The Right has been correct across the board and so naturally the circle jerk of leftist media propagandists -- consisting of the Left's political leadership, their bought and paid for media wonks, and Marxist style college professors -- all label the truth . . . fake . . . news.

    The really neat part is that the Left honestly believes that the rest of the nation hasn't noticed that the Right ALWAYS turns out to have been correct when all is said and done and that there will be no political repercussions as a result

    They can't, because this is all that they have got. Until recently it has worked for them most of the time simply because ABC, CBS, NBC/MSNBC/ CNN, The New York Times, and The Washington Post have collectively worked for the DNC and so they could so very easily control the nation's over arching political narrative.

    But the more that the intellectually free wheeling Internet influences people the less direct influence and even intellectual control the anti-ethical and corrupted to the core alphabet networks and other leftist-loyal outlets possess in regards to the thought processes of this nation.

    The Left have failed to adapt because having had control of the nation's information outlets for decades have made them intellectually lazy and flabby. They keep hoping that somehow their former and nearly uncontested control of the narrative will just magically appear again. But it won't.

    :roflol:- Oh yea, it's one big conspiracy.

    The AG will be releasing the full report, minus what has to be redacted for legal and ethical reasons.

    The Mueller report will be public.

    Also, the people who started this fake investigation and spied on Trump are going to held accountable.

    Has the Mueller report and the investigation conducted by Trump’s DOJ been proven to be a “RINO and leftist political allies sponsored witch hunt”? Is that the conclusion that has been reached? At this point, having not read the report, I certainly would not characterize it that way. Your take on it is proof positive that you have been fooled by fake news sources such as the ones produced by Russian operatives and their allies at Fox News, Breitbart and AM radio. My prediction is that when all the facts regarding this investigation are known it will not be considered a witch hunt but rather a legitimate probe into foreign meddling into our election process.

    Do you think that when the report is released it will reveal that this whole investigation was a witch hunt which was only conducted by crooks and traitors to attempt to overthrow the election of Trump? That’s what many of your favorite “news” sources have been suggesting for over a year now.

    I think the Mueller report clears Trump of collusion, obstruction but will still contain attacks against him pointing to his tweets and his displeasure with the investigation. The fact that the investigation was something Trump could not control bothered him immensely and they will attack him for such. However, it is important to remember that despite his attacks, he never shut it down, never fired Sessions until almost after it was completely and never hired an AG that would shut it down.

    Also, I think Mueller wrapped things up a long time before we actually knew about it and I think the White House was aware as well.

    SDNY might still be a problem for him but he now as a real AG so I think he feels secure enough to get back to running the country without all of these useless distractions.

    I also think it will pave the way for a whole slew of indictments against people like Peter Stryok, Lisa Page, James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Bruce and Nellie Ohr and possibly more.

    The next year will be interesting, to say the least.

    I predict that there will not be any indictments on Comey or any of the others you mentioned. But yes, the next year will be interesting. We shall see.
