Well, they sure know their readers.
A New York Times reporter explained why the paper joined nearly every major media outlet in ignoring the blockbuster special counsel charge that Hillary Clinton’s campaign spied on internet traffic at Trump Tower, Donald Trump’s New York City apartment and the White House in an effort to frame Trump as a Russia stooge.
The accusations filed in motions by special counsel John Durham in his investigation of the Obama administration’s Russia probe essentially are too much work for Times readers to digest, wrote Charlie Savage, who covers national security and legal policy issues.
Two days after the story broke, Savage said Durham’s claims “tend to involve dense and obscure issues, so dissecting them requires asking readers to expend significant mental energy and time — raising the question of whether news outlets should even cover such claims.”
He went on to lament that “Trump allies portray the news media as engaged in a cover-up if they don’t.”
……Margot Cleveland of The Federalist dissected the Times writer’s defense in a long thread on Twitter, challenging each point.
……Durham, in a 13-page motion filed Friday against Sussmann, alleged that enemies of Trump fed disinformation gathered from their surveillance to intelligence agencies in an effort to frame him during the campaign and while he was in the White House.
……The Clinton campaign also was behind another major catalyst for the now-debunked charge against Trump of Russian collusion, the infamous “dossier.” by former British spy Christopher Steele. Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee, through the law firm Perkins Coie, financed the production of the discredited dossier by the intelligence firm Fusion GPS.
Dear Charlie Savage: I understand fully the criminal activity behind spygate. But then, I’m not one of your retarded NYT readers.
The “Russian collusion” hoax fell apart during the first month of Trump’s presidency but they pushed it anyway.
The entire Dem impeachment shitshow was based on fraud. Having said that, Durham should expand his investigation to Mueller, Comey, Strzok, Brennan, and Obama for their role in this.
There’s plenty of evidence to keep Durham busy for a long time: The Dems were so desperate to thwart the election of Donald Trump that they cooked up an elaborate scheme involving a fake dossier and weaponized government agencies. As an ‘insurance policy‘ during the campaign, the FBI, James Comey, the Hillary campaign, and the Obama regime all had a hand in producing and paying for a lurid, fabricated document which was then used to secure a warrant from the FISA court under fraudulent claims, to spy on the Trump campaign.
Former MI6 operative, Christopher Steele, was hired by Fusion GPS, a corporate espionage firm, to dig up dirt on Trump but came up with a fabricated smear instead. Not deterred by the total implausibility of the story described in the dossier, GPS shopped the dossier to the liberal media and paid journos to feed the fake story to the press with predictable results; the left wing morons at Buzzfeed and CNN jumped at the chance to print the fake news. The FBI even offered $50,000 to Steele for information.
The Obama regime paid almost one million dollars to the same law firm that funneled money to GPS. Somewhere in that mess was RINO John McCain, who received the dossier from a former British ambassador to Moscow. Texts between Lisa Page and Andrew McCabe show that Obama was briefed on the spying. They also inserted a mole into the Trump campaign.
After the fake dossier failed, they used the planted story about the Trump campaign having ‘inside knowledge’ of the Russians possessing Hillary’s emails.
James Comey, who is an unscrupulous douchebag, was part and parcel of the conspiracy to undermine the election and overthrow a duly elected president though false allegations and sedition. He also leaked classified information when it suited his purpose and lied to the FISA court.
Former CIA director John Brennan, colluded with British and Estonian spies in an attempt to undermine the election.
The NYT ignored this too: Mueller’s Star Witness Pleads Guilty in Illegal Scheme to Funnel Foreign Money to Hillary Clinton’s 2016 Campaign.
All this shit can be traced back to Hillary’s campaign and Obama’s regime. They went to insane lengths in an attempt to subvert the election. All of the perps in this conspiracy should be in orange jumpsuits.
