How so?

What did you think they would talk about?

"hey Vlad, can you get us a few tons of the good caviar for the inauguration?"

A smart president would know how to make piece and then the caviar would flow all by itself.

Just Two NY Times Paragraphs On Russiagate - A Striking Admission

This week The New York Times published an epic 10,000 word piece entitled "The Plot to Subvert and Election - Unraveling the Russia Story So Far."

It's essentially the Times' summary of everything that can be definitively established thus far after two years of national obsession and inquiry into alleged Russian election meddling and influence that supposedly ushered Trump into the White House in 2016.

The massive investigative piece has the following lede at the top: For two years, Americans have tried to absorb the details of the 2016 attack — hacked emails, social media fraud, suspected spies — and President Trump’s claims that it’s all a hoax. The Times explores what we know and what it means.

But what do we learn? Buried among the nearly 200 paragraphs of seemingly endless intelligence "claims" wherein the reader will be disappointed to find no smoking gun detailing any actual conspiracy of meddling and collusion, we find two specific paragraphs which though contradictory are incredibly revealing about the nature of the whole 'Russiagate' scandal.

First, in paragraph 5 we are told by the Times journalists:

President Trump’s Twitter outbursts that it is all a “hoax” and a “witch hunt,” in the face of a mountain of evidence to the contrary, have taken a toll on public comprehension.

[url=][/url]

And as Moon of Alabama blog astutely observes, after one-hundred-and-seventy-eight paragraphs featuring repetition of "unproven intelligence claims, spin around a few facts and lots of innuendo" the same authors finally admit that Trump is actually right.

Near the end of an exhaustively long piece meant to chronicle the "evidence" that few are likely to ever read in full, we find this bombshell candid admission:

Mr. Trump’s frustration with the Russian investigation is not surprising. He is right that no public evidence has emerged showing that his campaign conspired with Russia in the election interference or accepted Russian money.

[url=][/url]

In an astounding contradiction within a single NYT article, the "mountain of evidence" at the opening becomes Trump "is right that no public evidence has emerged" by the story's closing.

Enough said?...

That's right, after two years of almost 24/7 media coverage and frenzy over the Trump campaign and White House supposedly being under a perpetual Kremlin shadow of compromise, we have a 10,000 word piece by the "paper of record" attempting to tie all the "evidence" together which ultimately ends on a whimper.

Buried in this 10k-word NYT piece: "no public evidence has emerged showing that campaign conspired with Russia." This is a pattern: ample words for Trump-Russia innuendo; quiet acknowledgment of no evidence. And 0 words on what has been debunked. t.co pic.twitter.com/igNIxEXuHr

— Aaron Maté (@aaronjmate) September 20, 2018 Again, The Times began by citing "a mountain of evidence" in paragraph 5, but ends with: "Mr. Trump’s frustration with the Russian investigation is not surprising. He is right that no public evidence has emerged..."

Journalist Aaron Maté rightly concludes, "This is a pattern: ample words for Trump-Russia innuendo; quiet acknowledgment of no evidence. And 0 words on what has been debunked."

4th ALLEGED WITNESS And Female Friend of Christine Ford — DENIES Assault Allegations against Judge Kavanaugh
by Jim Hoft September 22, 2018 11 Comments

A fourth alleged witness in Christine Blasey Ford’s alleged sexual assault accusations against Judge Brett Kavanaugh has denied the allegations. Leland Ingham Keyser says she has no recollection of EVER BEING AT A PARTY with Brett Kavanaugh and does not know him. Ms. Keyser is a lifelong friend of Christine Blasey Ford.

THERE ARE NO WITNESSES WHO HAVE CONFIRMED CHRISTINE BLASEY FORD’S ACCUSATIONS!
NOT ONE! ** Judge Brett Kavanaugh vehemently denies the allegations
** Patrick Smyth, a former high school classmate of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, has denied attending the alleged party where Christine Blasey Ford says Kavanaugh attempted to sexually assault her in the 1980s.
** Alleged witness Mark Judge defended Brett Kavanaugh again Tuesday in a letter through his lawyer to Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley.
** And now, Leland Ingham Keyser, a life-long friend of Christine’s has denied the accusations.

NEWS: Attorney for Leland Keyser, who Dr Ford says was at the party where the alleged incident with Kavanaugh occurred says “Ms. Keyser does not know Mr. Kavanaugh and she has no recollection of ever being at a party or gathering where he was present, with, or without, Dr. Ford.” pic.twitter.com/l2F0s396IK

Leland Keyser was once married to former FOX News host Bob Beckel.

Dr. Fraud's story is that that there were 4 people at the party where Kavanaugh allegedly assaulted her.

1) Brett Kavanaugh
2) Mark Judge
3) Patrick J. Smyth
4) Leland Ingham Keyser

ALL 4 have now denied there was any such party.

Meanwhile, Dr. Fraud is $400k richer.
