Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) Reply #2164 – October 15, 2020, 07:22:00 am Quote from: LP – on October 13, 2020, 07:56:55 amDoubt this will happen, they would be setting a dangerous precedent they all have to live by.I think the Occam's Razor argument seems more likely. The rumour is Trump is broke, and the debtors are queuing up to take a slice of him at the end of his elected term. He is a narcissistic, and the only way he can maintain his lifestyle is to stay elected. In effect he is buying time by being President!The POTUS faces a criminal investigation by a New York City prosecutor who is seeking his financial records and tax returns.The Supreme Court nominee was questioned on the POTUS’s claim to have the absolute power to pardon himself and declined to give a definitive answer.Of course, the point is moot if he is no longer the POTUS.

Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) Reply #2166 – October 15, 2020, 09:36:36 am You mean this one?Twitter Blocks New York Post Article Linked To Russian Disinformation Campaign, HuffPost.QuoteTwitter on Wednesday took the highly unusual step of blocking links to a thinly sourced New York Post article that appears to have connections to a Russian disinformation campaign targeting Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his son Hunter.A Twitter spokesperson told HuffPost that the article violated the company’s Hacked Materials Policy, noting in particular an absence of information on the origins of the materials that formed the basis of the Post’s reporting.By the way, don’t make the mistake of assuming the New York Post must be reputable as it seems to be a conflation of the New York Times and Washington Post. It’s a right-wing tabloid like the UK’s Sun. Quote Selected

Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) Reply #2168 – October 15, 2020, 09:55:44 am True. All the President’s Men have been scrambling to find something, anything on Biden. And the most they can find is Russian disinformation. If it hadn’t been for the Ukraine impeachment, Rudy Guiliani, Lev Parnas etc this might have had some impact but it’s no better than a Pravda story.By the way, the hit job, I mean investigation, into “ObamaGate” came up empty. Apparently, there was nothing remotely unseemly in the unmasking ordered by the previous administration. Barr tried to spin it by saying the report wouldn’t be ready for release until after the election and like clockwork Trump claimed this was a disgrace and very unfair to him. But the abrupt resignation of the prosecutor handling the case probably suggests he didn’t want to follow Barr’s orders regarding rewriting his report.

It’s a right-wing tabloid like the UK’s Sun.The media entities are in business to make a profit, they do whatever they like and whatever it takes to line their own pockets.Everyday Joes think the reporters are freewill, writing and publishing what they like, what they have discovered, cleaned up a little here and there by an editor, it's so far from the truth it's a joke. In the modern world of mass media, built on the foundations of Murdoch's empire, the reporters are not much more than syndicated bloggers, some say a million monkeys tapping away at keyboards, writing out a cladding around a framework they have already been told! Many of the stories you'll find semi-duplicated over and over again, usually the same source of a skeleton that gets reupholstered by a local blogger to make it relevant in various countries and cities. It's pathetic journalism, the journalist have become jelly boned pawns. Quote Selected

Come on mate, Geezus Christ. Are you really believing this crap?? This is the MO they used against Hillary before the election, and fortunately for them she was widely disliked beforehand so people just decided to accept the crap that was fed to them.The NYPOST is a Murdoch paper - you know that piece of crap that kills all independent media wherever his disgusting claws can get into! Farking hell, Rudy has absolutely ZERO credibility as well!What is wrong with people? Are you so gullible to believe there’s no agenda within Rupert owner media? It’s actually depressing how much people don’t think for themselves now, just see an inflammatory headline and go with it.Please if you haven’t already, sign Rudds petition for a royal commission into media in this country - democracy relies on it!
