Are we being punked by Bannon's War Room?

in #politics7 years ago

What better way to sow confusion and doubt about what we know about the Russia investigation than to poison the well with red meat for the liberal press that won't be able to resist reporting fake Russia news as evidence, as long as there are many corroborating sources to back it up?

Listening to Rachel Maddow last night reporting on the Washington Post's latest bombshells that were sourced by 30 (!) Washington sources, it stuck me as possibly the devious work of Steve Bannon. Especially because it hinted at things Obama knew and didn't take action on, which had Rachel dancing all over with speculation as why he didn't.

If we are being punked, what a humiliating laugh-fest they will have pointing this out, and how much real evidence will get thrown out under the shame of lost credibility?

Since the return from the embarrassing world tour and the decision to set up a war room, we haven't heard much, have we? Manipulating and baiting the liberal press iis Bannon's forte. I think we should be very wary about sources of info that we take to establish the facts of this case.

Could this strategy work?

Sort:  

one of the biggest problems with most of those stories is there are no names for these mysterious sources, so its troubling that in our entire governemnt there is not one person that is patriotic enough to give their name and position to verify any of these stories, or they are all made up and since they cannot be verified they can make up what they want, think about it at last count there were like 75 unnamed sources ,odd isnt it? anc concerning that no one cares enough to stand up and be counted? very very odd.

Looks like I'm not wrong, and good for Rachel Maddow to not fall for it! That could have been a Dan Rather moment for her if she wasn't so freakin' smart!
