“secretly”? lol, cmon
Anybody paying attention to how weird GOP media has been becoming for over a decade has been speculating in this direction. It’s good that the DOJ has finally done something. And lol, tenet media has folded.
This story was in The New York Times. During 2016 election The New York Times published thousands of stories about Clinton email/Benghazi, not one on Trumps lifelong ties to NY/Russian mob. As if The New York Times wasn’t in a particularly knowledgeable position to report on 70 years of NYC construction & mob history. All the money in my pocket says The Paper of Record has been taking Russian money for decades.
New York Times front page, three days before the 2016 election:
Investigating Donald Trump, F.B.I. Sees No Clear Link to Russia
FUCK YOU NEW YORK TIMES
shooting the messenger
Yup! Remember Romney saying that Russia was our geopolitical enemy and Obama being the one who called that ridiculous? Ever since then the Republicans have had an absurd love affair with Putin.
To be fair, there was an honest gambit there with Our Pal Russia, the same one that was tried with China. It didn’t work but it seemed like a fair thing to try, especially considering the economic constraints of the alternative.
Oh yeah, at the time Obama was right to try to repair relations with Russia. They’ve simply grown worse as they figured out how to poke at the world via information warfare.
Putin wanted to join NATO. The US rejected Russia as an ally, while adding other former Soviet republics to NATO. Russia was slow to realize America wasn’t merely content with the fall of Soviet communism, but also wanted cheap access to its natural resources. Russia has adjusted accordingly.
America would’ve won cold war 1 & 2 in one move by admitting Russia to NATO and pitting them against China, but it got greedy.
“Secretly”
This is the dead giveaway that NYT does not give a SHIT about all the fucked up pro-Trump shit they’ve pulled. Not even a little.
This is why I have zero problems when conservatives want to shit on it. “Yeah!” I say. Even though yeah usually they have something good there. Liberal media - yeah right. Fuck.
I agree with you, but let’s try to not treat massive organizations as a single being. I’m sure even there some people were not ok with how pervasive Russian talking points were there. But then again, maybe I’m being naive.
If it weren’t pervasive, ubiquitous, and predictable I’d agree with you. But it’s as close to systemic as we can measure.
Why they do it is debatable, but that they do it is not.
I’m so glad this was top comment.
Tucker reports his shock at the current turn of events from his summer home in St. Petersburg Florida. 😉😉
Secretly?
Yeah secretly my ass, this shit has been so obvious for years now
Then why didn’t you fucking tell us you knew Tenet and Poole were shopping millions of dollars of propaganda?? Why the fuck didn’t you tell us???
Worst kept secret ever.
“Secretly” lmao
Come on now. Worst kept secret in politics.
“secretly worms” is a pretty good way to describe Tucker Carlson, actually
secretly
Man, everybody knows T-cucks is just a pile of worms in a suit. Worst-kept secret in media. IIRC, he had to admit it in court—in connection with that leaked texts scandal.
Hot off the derp files.
No shit.
Fox News— Tucker Carlson, Shawn Hannity, Stepford Nazi edition wife Laura Ingraham and now Jesse Watters have been in the bag forever.
Rupert Murdoch has been licking Pootie’s sack and trying to bring down democracy.
It’s not a fucking secret. Russia has been fucking with America for like 70 years.
Secretly?! 🤣👌🏼
In case you missed the little summary above: Benny Johnson, Tim Pool and Dave Rubin are the big ones.
And if you’ve never heard of them, your average Trump voter has.
to be clear, these are the just the end points of the money, lauren chen and her husband were the ones actually funneling the money into this corp and to these people. (and the two indicted russians obviously)
Her and her husband also knew about it being from russia, so they’re likely getting fucked over by the fed soon for this one.
“worms it’s way into”? Boy, you’re late, that worming has been done ages ago. It laid its eggs, and they did hatch already.
I would be surprised if there weren’t well placed Russian influence in most conservative media in the United States.
Open secret
Tenet Media
Tim Pool! I once knew a guy who thought everything he said was amazing
Tim Pool really recently said that he supports the death penalty for treason…
