If the public narrative is controlled by the "liberal media" as Repubs claim........

.........why is the topic of conversation focused on Hunter Biden and not Donnie J? A recent report issued by the Senate Finance and Homeland Security Committees looking in to the Biden's, the latter committee being chaired by a man who openly admitted he hoped the report would help Trump's re-election, came up with nothing of consequence.

Unproven allegations appear to be enough for Repubs to draw conclusions of wrongdoing from, so what about this?

Ivanka and Donald Trump Jr. Were Close to Being Charged With Felony Fraud

"In June 2006, during the season finale of “The Apprentice,” Donald Trump Sr. unveiled the Trump SoHo as a visionary project. The luxury development was intended to mark the ascension of Ivanka and Donald Jr. — then 24 and 28 years old, respectively — as full players in the Trump empire. They signed the licensing deal alongside their father, and photographs of Ivanka were featured in the Trump SoHo’s advertising, under the tagline “Possess your own SoHo.”

Their partners on the project included two Soviet-born businessmen, Felix Sater and Tevfik Arif, who ran the Bayrock Group, a real estate development firm. Sater had a history of running afoul of the law. In 1993, he was convicted of assault and spent about a year in prison for attacking a man with the stem of a margarita glass in a bar fight. In 1998, he pleaded guilty to one count of racketeering for his role in a $40 million securities fraud scheme."

And then there is the Tower meeting Donnie J attended while under the impression he was going to receive dirt on Hillary from the Russian government. The meeting Mueller considered bringing criminal charges against Donnie for. But ultimately decided Donnie to was too stupid to know he was committing a crime. In legal terms there is little difference between trying to conspire with operatives from a foreign country to influence an election and actually pulling it off.

What gives? Why do unsubstantiated accusations aimed at Hunter B. dominate the headlines, but not Big Fat Don's oldest offspring, if it is fair game to be discussing the candidate's kids and the libs control the narrative?

 

The public narrative is controlled by the Shadow Government, which controls the media also. That's why the Lawyers Committee's lawful petition to the DOJ by way of USA Berman was put in File 13.

 

Did QAnon tell you that?

"It’s not surprising that President Donald Trump believes that “most politicians would have gone to a meeting like the one Don Jr. attended in order to get info on an opponent” – his reference, of course, is to the infamous June 9 meeting organized by Donald Trump Jr. to obtain incriminating information on Hillary Clinton offered, as he knew, by the Russian government.

President Trump and his supporters keep trying to spin the line that there was nothing illegal about what Trump Jr. did.

That’s plain wrong.

Setting aside the question of criminal intent, the public record shows that Trump Jr. knowingly solicited “something of value” for the Trump campaign from a foreign source. Doing so was a violation on the federal ban on soliciting foreign support for a campaign. The fact that this was a foreign government, hostile to US democratic institutions, is not relevant to this legal analysis, though it is relevant to what we think of his actions as an ethical matter."

Nope, I figured that out by myself. There is ample material about Operation Mockingbird, if one has a curious mind as I do.

And there are a handful of former CIA types that have written and spoken about such things. One of the best is Kevin Shipp.

In Europe, the journalist Udo Ulfkotte wrote about the undue influence of the CIA in media over there. He's dead now, but I heard him speak before he died.

 

Awesome. You should start a thread on it. This one is about an entirely different topic.

 

Too much truth and relevance, eh Lee?

 

That must be it (wink).

 

Anyone who doesn't see that the liberal media actively and ardently controls the public narrative to its liking and agenda has to be living on Mars.

 

They could be living on Earth with their head buried in the sand.

 

Social media is forcing them to deal with it. Twitter and Facebook apparently can't censor it fast enough.

 

Did you really think repeating a talking point would be persuasive?

 

It seems to work within the faithful in the two political parties.

 

Watchdogs to DOJ: Trump Jr. meeting broke campaign finance laws

President Trump’s eldest son and top campaign aides violated campaign finance laws by accepting a meeting with a Russian lawyer who promised dirt on Hillary Clinton, according to a complaint filed by a trio of government watchdog groups.

In emails sent during the presidential campaign, Donald Trump Jr. was promised that a meeting with Kremlin-linked lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya would be able to provide “the Trump campaign with some official documents and information that would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and would be very useful.”

Trump Jr. took the meeting with Veselnitskaya, which was also attended by then-campaign chairman Paul Manafort and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, who was also a top campaign aide.

Yet no media outlet is talking about this.

 

"Business was slow, but the Trump family claimed the opposite. In April 2008, they said that 31 percent of the condos in the building had been purchased. Donald Jr. boasted to The Real Deal magazine that 55 percent of the units had been bought. In June 2008, Donald Jr. and Ivanka, alongside their brother Eric, gathered the foreign press at Trump Tower in Manhattan, where Ivanka announced that 60 percent had been snapped up. “We’re in a very fortunate position,” she said, “where we have enough sales and now we are strategically targeting certain buyers.”

None of that was true. According to a sworn affidavit by a Trump partner filed with the New York attorney general’s office, by March of 2010, almost two years after the press conference, only 15.8 percent of units had been sold."

 

If the narrative is controlled by liberals, why is so much attention focused on specious accusations regarding the Biden's?

How Trump abandoned his pledge to ‘drain the swamp’

"On a Friday evening in late September, President Trump huddled with high-dollar donors, lobbyists and corporate executives in a private room at the hotel he owns in Washington, where attendees took turns pitching the president on their pet issues.

Trump was there to raise big money for his reelection effort. The price of admission: as much as $100,000 per person to get in the door.

One attendee’s plea on behalf of an obscure railway project in Alaska in need of federal approval appeared to get immediate results.
Just after midnight, mere hours after the campaign fundraiser, Trump tweeted that it was his “honor to inform you that I will be issuing a Presidential Permit for the A2A Cross-Border rail.”

Among the many laughable claims Capt. Clorox made on the campaign trail in 2016, #DTS has reached the level of hilarity. It was designed as cover with the gullible rubes for what would be, and still is, the most corrupt admin since Grant. What better way to dupe The Following that personally profiting from the office was somehow okay because the Grifter-in-Chief was draining the swamp. It was a slight of hand only a professional conman could pull off.

After all, you don't get elected prez after your crowning achievement was playing the role of a fictional executive on TV by being a second rate huckster. Don is the best. What else explains how he has orchestrated attention away from things like price gouging while insisting government employees stay at his properties and instead on disproven claims of corruption by his election opponent? Well, other than help from the Murdoch's that is.

"Ever since he first took office, President Donald Trump has been charged with using his position to profit off the presidency, as foreign leaders stay at Trump Organization properties while the president himself ferries back and forth to the “winter White House” and Trump properties around the world. And while the Trump administration has been understandably cagey about just how much taxpayer money is funneling into the Trump Organization’s pockets, we now have a somewhat better idea when it comes to one major charge. Following reports earlier this year that the Trump Organization has charged the Secret Service as much as $650 a night to stay at Trump properties when accompanying the president, the Washington Post reported Thursday that those hefty hotel bills have so far added up to nearly a million dollars—at least."

Eric Trump has claimed that the Trump Organization lets the government stay at their properties “for free”—but records of the federal government’s hotel costs prove otherwise.

Karl Rove pioneered the idea of accusing your political rival of the thing you have the most liability for. It's why the chicken hawk coward known as Shrub, who didn't even finish the cushy gig his dad got for him with the ANG, ended up assassinating the character of a war hero.

 

If you believe it was a coincidence that John Kerry's service to the nation as a vet was attacked by a chicken hawk whose biggest political liability was he used his daddy's connections to play pretend soldier in the ANG.............think again.

If you believe it's a coincidence that the most corrupt in United States history thought it was necessary to change the narrative so he got his media lackeys to attack the son of his opponent with unsubstantiated claims of corruption............think again.

 

Kerry committed treason

 

You do seem to like your hallucinations.

 

Prove he didn't

 

Is that anything like being close to being pregnant?

 

IOW, the propaganda worked. It must be why they're trying it again on Hunter.

 

Hmmmmmmm, no. The existence of solid evidence the offspring committed a crime the DA decided not to prosecute for questionable reasons is not the same. Anything else?

 

So kerry didn't commit treason with Iran?

 

How silly of you to respond to a silly post of mine.
