Lest there be any doubt, the role of “fact checkers” like CNN’s Daniel Dale (@ddale8) is to create smokescreens & distractions whenever the public starts getting too close to facts.
Take the Biden WH’s engineering of the DoJ’s case against Biden’s chief political rival. Dale has regularly taken to the airwaves to insist there’s “no evidence” the Biden W.H. had anything to do with the administration’s case against Trump. Like this clip from June last year:
Despite his ostensible role as a checker of facts, we could have given Dale the benefit of the doubt, presuming perhaps he was too busy eating bear-claws to do any research.

However, I helpfully sent him a link reporting an admission from FARA that the Biden WH was in fact coordinating the anti-Trump operation.
One might expect a professional arbiter of truth to thereafter quickly take to the airwaves to issue an apology & clarification.

Instead, the unrepentant Canadian has returned to the air, spreading the same misinformation (and according to what I’ve learned from America's Ministress of Truth, Nina Jankowicz, if you knowingly spread misinformation that makes it “disinformation”). @wiczipedia

16 Reasons Biden's Worse than Trump for "Democracy"

16. Biden Admin turned the FBI against parents who opposed his DEIfication of schools & tried using anti-terrorism laws to target them congress.gov/117/meeting/ho…
15. Biden's FBI is currently using the FBI to target MAGA-aligned voters ahead of 2024 newsweek.com/2023/10/13/exc…
14. Biden's bragged about locking up hundreds of Trump voters ahead of 2024. Many spent months in solitary confinement before anything like a conviction.

Even Politico is now admitting to Biden being the key player in his family’s corrupt schemes
Just counted & this article has at least 27 references to spox from the WH, Hunter & Jim Biden, associated parties, etc., refusing comment to Politico.
This sounds like familiar Image

Here’s the real story of the 14th Amendment, which progressives are using to try Putining Trump off the ballot.

The 14th Amendment has always been intended to empower Washington to lord over states, although even its authors never intended for it to go as far as it has, w/ federal judges over the last 100 years having decided it actually enables them to nullify state laws they dislike.Image
After the Civil War, Lincoln's Republican Party controlled Congress (in large part due to federal officers arresting anyone speaking on behalf of Democrats), and, seeking to adopt the 14th Amendment, they prevented southern states congressional representation unless they ratified the 14th Amendment.
Despite being blackmailed, every southern state except Tennessee voted against the 14th Amendment. Congress responded by passing the Reconstruction Act of 1867, which "established a comprehensive military dictatorship to run the governments of each of the 10 states" that were not yet back in the United States. (Am quoting from Thomas DiLorenzo's must-read book, "The Real Lincoln.")

As today’s the 60 year anniversary of JFK’s assassination, I’d like to share the most interesting information I’ve come across while recently reading a few books: “Legacy of Secrecy: The Long Shadow of the JFK Assassination” by Lamar Waldron & Thom Hartman, “Devil’s Chessboard: Allen Dulles, the CIA, and the Rise of America’s Secret Government,” by David Talbot, and “Chaos: The Truth Behind the Manson Murders” by Tom O’Neill.
Waldron’s basic conclusion is that the CIA’s partnership with the mafia — involving myriad criminality, such as trying to assassinate Fidel Castro — spun out of control & the mafia, angry at AG RFK’s crackdown on organized crime, exploited their insider-role in Washington to assassinate Kennedy (as any proper investigation would expose the CIA’s enabling of the then-three largest crime families). Waldron acknowledges that many of the most mobbed-up CIA agents also admitted being involved in the assassination, such as the CIA’s Miami station boss, David Morales (who, the more you read about him, the more he sounds like a serial killer who happened to work for the government), but Waldron stops short of blaming anyone at the CIA for orchestrating the hit.
Image
Then by destroying evidence & hampering investigations into JFK’s assassination, the CIA — and their enablers in Washington — left in place a criminal architecture that was later used to kill both MLK and RFK. (Waldron reports one of those involved in JFK’s assassination, a white supremacist named Joseph Milteer, was able to orchestrate the hit on MLK, thanks in part to the FBI explicitly forbidding their agents from following any leads that revealed the conspiracy behind killing Kennedy). RFK’s assassination, which I knew virtually nothing about before this book, is another clear case of conspiracy. Like Lee Harvey Oswald, Sirhan Sirhan was a patsy — who, even if he shot any of the bullets that hit RFK — was merely being exploited by powers greater than he.
