The press seems determined to repeat the same mistakes that handed the 2016 election to a Kremlin puppet.

So, let’s revisit this infamous article which further damaged @HillaryClinton’s campaign after @Comey’s interference.

Gift article (disinformation): nytimes.com/2016/11/01/us/…

This entire article is anonymously sourced, but every part of this story is manufactured propaganda.

The @FBI source, almost certainly @NewYorkFBI counterintelligence chief Charles McGonigal—who recently pled guilty to being a Russian asset—focuses on a blatant hoax.

The “Alfa Bank” hoax by anonymous “cyber experts” alleged communications between a sanctioned Russian bank, Trump Tower & Erik Prince’s sister Betsy DeVos’s company—which was ruthlessly promoted by Erik Prince chaos agents like Louise Mensch.

The “new batch of emails” was made up by propagandists and laundered through compromised members of the NYPD up to the New York FBI. It was promoted ruthlessly by Erik Prince & Mike Flynn’s propagandists, and used by @Comey to reopen the investigation 11 days before the election.

@Comey Anthony Weiner and Huma Abedin were dragged into this manufactured scandal because it was created by the same people who created “Weinergate” at Breitbart over a decade ago.

These people include Erik Prince, Steve Bannon & Breitbart devotee Douglas Matthew Stewart.

@Comey The blatant cover up of Russian interference at the FBI, and the credulous stenography from the New York Times could not be more evident here.

@Comey refused to discuss any investigation into Trump’s Russia ties but gladly yapped about every move against Hillary to the press.

@Comey The New York Times printed a claim by an FBI anonymous source that Paul Manafort, who was the Kremlin’s American handler in its effort to retake Ukraine, was only being investigated for tax evasion and “not necessarily on any Russian influence…”

Just atrocious.

@Comey “They focused particular attention on what cyberexperts said appeared to be a mysterious computer back channel… FBI officials spent weeks examining computer data…”

Again this is a hoax being laundered through a compromised source that ended up fueling the Durham investigation.

@Comey And here is the New York Times whitewashing Roger Stone and quoting a “Clinton supporter” as saying Trump was “an unwitting agent of the Russian Federation.”

Unwitting.

Finally, this opus of disinformation concludes by dryly repeating Stone’s ridiculous denial in Breitbart.

@Comey With very few exceptions, I see the media hurtling full speed into the same world of trying to “tell both sides of the story” about the upcoming election when one side of the story is true, and the other side is manufactured by enemies of democracy.

Press, don’t do this again.
