Assault on Truth: A book about our president's lies

So let's discuss your conspiracy theory that you define as not a "conspiracy theory". I don't read the Fox news rantings on this subject which they appear to be preoccupied with, so I'll ask you to briefly bring me up to speed. Esp the part where the Obama Admin undertook a conspiracy to build a "collusion case" against Trump?

So did this idea for building this case and specifically deciding that Russia would be the "offending partner" emerge out of thin air? How did Obama specifically choose Russia over any of the other candidates? And exactly when did the Admin, the FBI and all these anti-Trump conspirators start to put this plan in motion?

The reason I'm curious is because it would seem to me at the very least Team Trump's actions in Spring 2016 were arguably a reason anyone could become alarmed. Specifically, the addition of Manafort and Carter Page to the Trump Campaign was an event that was viewed as alarming to people outside of govt circles as well as those within the Admin. From March 30, 2016...

"In preparation for what will surely be a heated Republican convention, Donald Trump has hired an experienced political operative to help wrangle GOP delegates: Paul Manafort, a strategist with three decades of Republican conventions under his belt, who has also worked for some unsavory international clients.

That roster includes the pro-Russian former president of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych, who was deposed in a popular revolution in 2013.

As Quartz reported earlier this month, Trump’s foreign policy advisors also include Carter Page, a former advisor and current shareholder in the state-controlled Russian natural gas giant, Gazprom, who has advocated for a less adversarial US stance toward Moscow. Bloomberg spoke with Sergey Yatsenko, a former Gazprom official who is now an official adviser to Page’s firm, who said Page “understands what’s going on in Russia … He doesn’t make strong judgments.”

So it is remarkable that if the Obama Admin/FBI created this secret plot prior to April 2016, that they somehow were able to know in advance that all of these pro-Putin elements would subsequently be joining Team Trump in March and April. So did Obama force team Trump to hire people with Russian connections in order to validate the "conspiracy theory" they created to "slander" Trump? Is that what happened?

So was Obama the puppet master that manipulated Team Trump into committing crazy suspicious acts, like sending Carter Page to Moscow in July 2016? Convince me that there was NO basis for anyone to be suspicious of events that Spring and summer, including the visit of an earlier target of recruitment by Russian Intelligence to a Conference where he made speeches calling for an end to US sanctions against the Russian Energy Sector. Which of course included the previously mentioned Gazprom...

More here. We don't know who John Solomon's FBI source is, but Solomon's writing about this has been spot on in almost every respect.

The 12 steps Solomon explains marched us toward the worst months in FBI history with probable White House support and encouragement. Thankfully these perps are all long gone from the FBI. Trump hatred is turning us inside out in ways never seen before.

1. Flynn's RT visit with Putin wasn't nefarious.
2. Not a Russian agent.
3. Case closed memo.
4. DOJ heartburn.
5. Logan Act threat wasn't real.
6. Unequal treatment.
7. Disguising a required warning.
8. "Playing games."
9. No deception.
10. No actual denial.
11. Interview Reports Edited.
12.) Evidence withheld.

It's also beyond self-serving and just a "tad" disingenuous to blame China and the WHO for not letting you know in time, when you are personally responsible for not only diminishing CDC presence within the WHO, but also for eliminating the very person tasked with monitoring any possible medical problems within China. I assume this is NOT news to you- it's been widely reported...

"The Trump administration cut staff by more than two-thirds at a key U.S. public health agency operating inside China, as part of a larger rollback of U.S.-funded health and science experts on the ground there leading up to the coronavirus outbreak, Reuters has learned.

Most of the reductions were made at the Beijing office of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and occurred over the past two years, according to public CDC documents viewed by Reuters and interviews with four people familiar with the drawdown.

The Atlanta-based CDC, America’s preeminent disease-fighting agency, provides public health assistance to nations around the world and works with them to help stop outbreaks of contagious diseases from spreading globally. It has worked in China for 30 years."

Trump made fund allocation choices based on satisfying certain political interests he wanted to support, and he needs to accept responsibility for his actions. Same with his shift of the funding within the HHS from a priority on pandemic/infectious disease monitorship to his obsession with his wall.

There was a protocol in place dating back at least to 2015-16, with an emphasis on testing, PPE, isolation/quarantine which also pointed out deficiencies in those areas which needed to be addressed, and would have been addressed had a Dem Admin continued in place after 2016. Again, Trump made the choices he made, and as usual, he tries to deflect blame on others...

Once again than you for your effort with this post.

No matter what you might think about Trump's actions about the CDC, they cannot supersede the causal affect of the well-documented Chinese negligence, deliberate indifference and deception about this virus.

Even if we agree that Trump cut back personnel from the CDC (doubtful) there has been no cause and effect shown that this hampered the COVID-19 response. Be that as it may, there is no doubt that we were unprepared and a huge factor with our slow response was our excessive rules, regulations, and bureaucratic infighting. Here is yet another piece documenting this considerable problem. These regs hampered everything from testing, to masks, gowns, gloves and ventilators. This problem is not on Trump. We ought to be thankful that the person in charge was not steeped in the ways of Washington and the ever increasing bureaucratic reach of agencies.

Fortunately, the Trump administration was ahead of the game, making many needed changes before the COVID-19 virus hit. Once in crisis mode, Congress and state governments also responded – apparently in sheer desperation.​

Except that Solomon hasn't been spot on. Solomon has been peddling unsubstantiated conspiracy theories without disclosing - and perhaps even lying about - the identity of his sources. He was caught reporting in a way that - again without disclosure - supported his own investment interests. Conservative-leaning The Hill had to part ways with him and downgrade all his previous reporting to "opinion." Multiple government experts testified that the stories he was peddling were a "false narrative," lacked important context, or where made up out of thin air.

This grand conspiracy narrative that you clearly whole-heartedly believe in is like a giant Rube Goldberg machine that hasn't been properly constructed, and yet you have been convinced, because the end result that people like Solomon tell you they've arrived at is the exact result you want to find.

Your discussion of Obama/Comey above belies how little this narrative makes sense. You take events that happened months apart, with many relevant and important intervening acts, and imagine they are some kind of clear Point A-to Point B-to-Point C conspiracy.

You want this to have all been an Obama-led conspiracy against Trump, so that is what you see. But the picture you paint falls flat on anyone who doesn't also desperately want that to be the case.

Five bucks says you'll be one of the posters calling for Obama's indictment before November.

In other words, you have no argument about what I said.

IIRC, the Hill's beef was about Solomon Ukraine reporting.

I am unaware of any of Solomon's reporting about the Flynn investigation that was materially misleading or wrong. Saying "conspiracy theory" is not a response. Prosecutorial misconduct is described in detail in the MTD.

"Your discussion of Obama/Comey above belies how little this narrative makes sense. You take events that happened months apart, with many relevant and important intervening acts, and imagine they are some kind of clear Point A-to Point B-to-Point C conspiracy." What are you talking about? What important intervening acts happened between the early January Obama meeting and the Flynn interview and Comey's conduct that included the February leak to the NYT. You know, the one where the IG said Comey committed misconduct.
 
Well, we now know that Trump told the truth 1,299,685.098,367,400 times. I think that is the number of times he said "Russia hoax" and each time it was true.
I thought Rudy Guliani and IMPOTUS said Ukraine interfered and needed a favor during the perfect phone call?
 
The man just LIES. It's as if it's second nature...

1)No, it is not his 2nd nature; it is his 1st nature!
2) This photo-op shows what a great compassionate Christian he is!:(

ps) I tagged Christianity to him because he seems to get tremendous supports from the Christians, especially the evangelical types. Am I wrong, Pastor Van?
