LOL. For 3 years, we were told Bob "WMD" Mueller was a man of such integrity, probity & courage that it was unpatriotic to criticize him & he would reveal All Truth.

Then he failed to deliver what liberal stars had promised, so now it's open season: he's a weakling & a coward:
Conspiracy theorists can never be defeated. Any outcomes that negate their claims just get integrated into the conspiracy.

When Mueller concluded there was no evidence to establish the conspiracy they touted for years, they turned on Mueller rather than re-assess their beliefs.
This is what establishment media stars were feeding people for years, profiting off of with ratings & books, and showering themselves with Pulitzers for saying.

What else can they do to salvage their humiliation other than blame Mueller, not themselves?

How dare @JeffreyGoldberg -- who never served his country except by sending other people's children to die in the wars he lied the US into -- malign a patriot like Robert Mueller as "not up to the task."

Imagine how the brave men & women of the FBI feel:

Organizing TikTok parties to burn these:
Remember this shit, which liberals swooned for by re-tweeting almost 5,000 times and liking close to 25,000?

Bill Kristol is the spiritual leader, the guru, of American liberalism whether they know it or not:

Amazing to watch: They didn't get the results they wanted for their dark conspiracy theory they feed on, profited off of, and disseminated for years, so now they shift on a dime from "you're not allowed to criticize Mueller" to "Mueller is a coward":

Amazing and infuriating:

To prosecute Hunter Biden, FBI has to say -- and has testified -- that his laptop and every document on it is authentic and unaltered.

Not one media outlet who spread the CIA's bullshit "Russian disinformation" lie has retracted it or apologized: Image
One more time: the people who most loudly and continuously claim that they are combatting "disinformation" are the exact people who spread it most aggressively and easily. Just look:

For weeks before the 2020 election, corporate media and CIA united to fabricate this complete lie to shield Joe Biden from incriminating reporting about his family's business activities in China and Ukraine.

Knowing and willful lies, never retracted:

This exchange alone proves what a pathological liar Fauci is.

One week after receiving emails from top epidemiologists arguing the virus was likely a lab leak, Fauci caused a virtual ban on questioning COVID's origin.

But he's a liberal folk hero so only GOP can raise this:
Before anything was known about COVID's origins, Fauci engineered a fake consensus that it was naturally occurring: in part because he had connections to the Wuhan lab.

People were banned online from questioning or debating it, until even Biden Admin admitted they don't know:👇
Image
Image
And just to show how cynically liberals weaponize racism:

It was decreed that "lab leak theory" was racist even though the more racist theory was theirs: that the Chinese are so unsanitary that filthy wet markets caused it.

The only thing that should have mattered was truth.

Here's the House roll call vote on whether to impose a warrant requirement on domestic spying (yes, the Constitution does that).

The vote was tied 212-212. Speaker Johnson -- despite years of claiming he favored warrants -- cast the decisive NO vote.

Among the Dems voting NO on the warrant requirement, giving the US Security State what it wants:

Schiff, Pelosi, Clyburn, Wasserman-Schultz, Lieu, Dan Goldman, Raskin, Thompson (Jan 6 crew).

Among GOP voting NO:

Crenshaw, Lawler, Stefanik, McCaul, Turner, Gallagher.
I have not seen the US Security State or war machine not get what it wants in Washington.

In the face of mass abuse of surveillance power, they just got renewed warrantless spying power on Americans.

They now have Mike Johnson working to get them the $60b to send to Ukraine.

Last night @elonmusk vowed to honor the endless, repressive and due-process-free censorship orders from Brazil's Judge Alexandre de Moraes.

The Judge has banned various journalists and members of Congress, among others, from social media.

This would be a huge deal for Brazil:
Image
Image
Rumble last year also announced that it would refuse to comply. The platform was expending huge resources to constantly take down videos and ban users upon the endless, lawless orders of a single job.

Amazingly, Rumble is no longer available to anyone in Brazil, getting this: Image
In January of last year, we obtained one of the secret orders Judge Moraes issues to platforms. This one banned Senators, Congress members and journalists, and mandated secrecy.

No due process. We reported it here. Hard to overstate how extreme it is:

UK Court hands Assange a partial victory in the Biden DOJ's attempt to extradite him.

US must provide explicit assurances that Assange 1) can raise a 1st Am defense, 2) will have the same rights as US citizens and 3) will never face the death penalty.

Deadline is April 16.
In the meantime, Assange remains in Belmarsh, the high security UK prison where he has been held for 5 years.

Every press freedom and civil liberties group in the West has urged Biden DOJ to drop this prosecution as a grave threat to press freedom:

The goal is not to bring Assange to the US.

Biden WH doesn't want the sideshow of a trial; daily protests; discovery into CIA; Assange on the stand; Biden as the first-ever president to imprison a publisher.

They want to kill Assange through conviction-free imprisonment.

NBC negotiated a contract with Jen Psaki while she was White House Press Secretary.

ABC hired George Stephanopoulos -- directly from the Clinton WH, with no journalism experience.

All these networks hire operatives from the US Security State.

It never prompts this melodrama:
This is obviously such a more extreme case of mixing media and state:

Genuinely hilarious:

WSJ says MSNBC won't put Ronna McDaniel because it would upset their liberal hosts and audience.

MSNBC is drowning in political hacks, including Jen Psaki and Michael Steele.

But what they can't have is dissent regarding Trump.
