Gabbard To Release More Obama Russiagate Files, 'Cannot Fathom' How Durham, Mueller Missed Evidence Of 'Years-Long Coup'

Just trust this administration.
It’s stacked right next to Epstein’s list 😉

These people have been flogging this for almost a decade. All the hand waving and breathless “reporting” is a naked attempt to stroke the MAGA erogenous zones so they let the refusal to release the Epstein files slide.

It’s right there in the last sentence of the article.

Of course not, the political spin machine does not give Democrats nor Republicans some monopoly on truth. But we do have far more evidence that both are willing to engage in exaggeration, deceptive argument, and straight up lying when the political moment commands that behavior.



Now you are arguing perception, alignment to one side over the other as a means to suggest misrepresentation from Democrats is worse that Republicans. There will be times that is true, other times where that is not true, and I doubt your objectiveness to agree to that.

Democrats lying about Biden's obvious decline is worse than Trump forgetting he appointed Powell in some statement bashing him. Trump lying about the 2020 election outcome fueling the Jan 6th attempt to prevent certification of the vote is worse than Biden lying about the inflation rate when he came into office.

Those are just examples.

No, I am not arguing "perception." I am arguing those lies were as bad or even worse than lies told by Trump.

The Steele Dossier was discredited long before Gabbard announced these documents. The assertion of Russian collusion is not credible.

I'm not afraid to go where the facts lead me. I'm not sure you can credibly say the same.

It's all just manufactured bullshit that both sides come up with to help them sling mud at the other. None of it means anything. Republicans and Democrats are both so equally entrenched in their separate propaganda domes that you can't even see you're exactly the same.

The evidence coming forward is not 'manufactured bullshit', as you call it. There actually was a conspiracy to overturn the election of 2016 by high level politicians and our intelligence agencies. Denial does not change the truth. The propagandists each worked hard in promoting the lies through repetitive words and phrases to seal the deal in the minds of Americans. This is actual recent history.

Isn't that a subjective assessment though? Which lies were "worse" is purely a matter of opinion. I prefer to write off both sides as being equally dishonest, manipulative, and untrustworthy. Basically, don't believe anything either of them say.

Yeah, and Trump worked very hard to try and overturn an election that he lost. Both sides manufacture bullshit. If you buy into either one, you're lost too. Don't believe anything the Democrats or Republicans say, they're exactly the same.

This is a coup but Jan 6 wasn't and you want Dems to take this seriously?
 
NatMorton said:
So just to be clear, you think Trump's falsified business ledger entries represent a greater failing, and a greater threat to society, than President Obama using the powers of state to fabricate a collusion case against Trump?
Click to expand...

Yes, I think Trump is a greater threat to the US than Obama ever was.
Trump should be in jail for his antics.

Straw-man alert.

You literally defaulted to " I am asserting that when you consider the possible impact to the nation, both the Russia collusion hoax and the lying about Biden's cognitive impairments are lies that as as bad or worse than any lie Donald Trump has told."

You emphasized as bad or worse.

Impact to the nation - lying about the President being healthiest ever and less than 6 months later its revealed his swollen ankles mean he has serious health issues is not an impact on the nation?

I have no problem with the assertion Trump lies, even by Washington standards. That does not excuse the Democrats when they lie.

But Trump's lies pale in comparison to Democrat's lies because Biden and Russia collusion.

Jan. 6th is kindergarten sandbox compared to what the corrupt democrats did in 2016. Hell, for that matter Jan. 6th was nothing compared to the riots of the democrats during the summer of 2020......there is no comparison. The Democrats are far more violent and corrupt than the Republicans.

The Steele Dossier was about a pee tape. The Mueller report was about Russian collusion, identified numerous links between the Russian government and the Trump campaign, found that Trump associates repeatedly lied to investigators about their contacts with Russians, and that President Trump attempted to impede the investigation and influence witnesses. It found that Russian interference in the 2016 election was sweeping and systematic, and aimed to help Trump. We all (except perhaps you) remember Trump openly calling for Russia to release Clinton's emails, and his sons meeting with a Russian in Trump tower for dirt on Clinton. After all that, Mueller expressly declined to exonerate Trump, instead accepting DOJ policy at the time that a sitting president cannot be indicted.

Since then, Trump policy has overwhelmingly benefitted Russia.

I'm not afraid to go where the facts lead me.

I've never seen evidence of that. Feels like all we ever do is argue over your selective consideration of facts.
