THREAD:

1) I'm not an investigative reporter, but I started writing about this two years ago, and connecting the dots. (Look up my column from November 2017 on Townhall: "Slimy similarities between DNC and Weinstein are no accident." )

2) @WSJ reporter @JohnCarreyrou's experience was identical: he & his sources were subjected to conduct just as corrupt and even more dangerous by the same lawyer (David Boies) behind the efforts to kill the Weinstein story. Boies hired "private security agencies"...

3)... to stalk, dig up dirt on & threaten Theranos employees who knew about the billion-$$$ fraud - to prevent them from revealing to legitimate journalists and law enforcement criminal behavior that threatened the lives of tens of thousands of people.

Carreyrou confirmed it...

4)... in the book he published in 2018, "Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup." He describes these tactics in detail. (Carreyrou was here at Notre Dame last week, and I got to ask him about it.)

5) Now the exact same thing is revealed to have happened at @ABC News, as well. This time, it's the #JeffreyEpstein pedophile scandal which got shelved. That story also threatened to ensnare powerful people, including high-ranking Democrats like Bill Clinton.

Can't have that.

6) @abc refused to run the story. Oh, and Jeffrey Epstein turned up dead in jail before he could testify. While on suicide watch. Guards slept or were mysteriously off duty, Epstein had cloth (instead of paper) sheets, cameras were broken - and so was Epstein's neck.

7) You'd think our media would be investigating the hell out of this. You'd be wrong. They're IN on it, because they're protecting the politicians THEY want running things, & are happy to be part of the smear machine to keep others out of office, the judiciary, & other jobs.

8) Journalists trying to DO their jobs (e.g., @RonanFarrow, Rich McHugh, @SharylAttkisson, Amy Robach, @EliLake, @ggreenwald, @JoshMeyerDC) deserve our respect. But those who do the bidding of the DNC and the sleazy lawyers they hire merit nothing but contempt.

9) #Russiagate, #HarveyWeinstein, Theranos, the #Ukraine "impeachment" circus & the #JeffreyEpstein story are NOT isolated or discrete instances. They are concerted efforts - BY THE SAME PEOPLE - to keep Americans ignorant & distracted from the REAL corruption & collusion.

9) And - contrary to the narrative concocted in Hillary Clinton's fevered brain and dutifully promoted by the Pravda press - it ISN'T in the Trump administration.
