The Indictment of Hillary Clinton's Lawyer is an Indictment of the Russiagate Wing of U.S. Media

greenwald.substack.com/p/the-indictme…
The DOJ's new charging document, approved by Biden's Attorney General, sheds bright light onto the Russiagate fraud and how journalistic corruption was key.

Yet amazingly -- or revealingly -- the journalists most responsible for this fraud have not even acknowledged this.
All four statements from this Hillary tweet 8 days before the election -- all four -- are complete lies. This scam was cooked up by her own campaign operatives, then fed to her media servants who laundered it, as she pretended she learned it from them:

Emails obtained from the indictment of Hillary's lawyers -- an indictment approved by Biden AG Merrick Garland -- make clear that even he knew the story was without basis. They peddled it anyway, to the FBI and gullible reporters, and many to this day keep pushing it. ImageImage
The key point: **Not one American** was indicted for criminally conspiring with Russia to interfere with the 2016 election: the core accusation that spawned the Mueller probe.

The criminality and corruption were from those who pushed the Russiagate scam:

Just as was true with the Iraq War and @JeffreyGoldberg, the journalists who lied most shamelessly and frequently in service of the CIA and DNC's Russiagate narrative were the ones most rewarded by the industry:

The shooter also praised Anders Breivik and Brenton Tarrant (anti-Muslim mass shooters); commemorated murdered wife of white separatist Randy Weaver and Timothy McVeigh; "Kick a spic"; cited Waco.

The need to instantly impose a clear ideology on mentally ill killers is stupid. Image
This platform is filled with countless pundit and influencer-types trying hard to claim the shooter was motivated by whatever ideology or group they most hate:

It was anti-Zionism! It was leftism! It was far-right racism.

Many, perhaps most, mass shooters are principally ill.

Please watch this. If you're American or British, you're paying for the mass famine Israel has been imposing and continues to impose on Gaza.

Alex de Waal is a leading famine scholar who has worked on most recent famines. Listen to what he says here about starvation in Gaza:
More here from Waal -- if you can bear to listen to it -- on exactly what the IDF and US are doing to block food from entering Gaza, and the reason why Stage 5 famine and dying of starvation is one of the worst ways a human being can perish:

The French Press Association issued a statement on how they have had journalists die in war zones -- but never of starvation.

Several of their Gazan colleagues can no longer work due to severe malnutrition.

This century's worst crime against humanity:

Yale's "Fascism expert" Jason Stanely -- Yale's "Jacob Urowsky Professor of Philosophy" (does anyone now who that is?) -- explains why he's fleeing the US in fear withYale's Timothy Snyder and his wife Marci Shore -- to Canada, which he calls "the Ukraine of of North America." Image
He says Canada is Ukraine beacaue it's a bastion of freedom and nobility threatened an by authoritarian neighbor.

The absolute narcissism and melodrama of these people: there are those whose civil liberties are threatened. Celebrated, rich Yale professors are not among them.
Extra gross that Snyder is very wealthy by heralding himself the world's leading warrior against fascism. His book implores others not to "anticipatorily obey" Trump.

2 months into Trump's term, he flees the US as if he's an underground #Resistance leader in occupied France.Image

If Joe Biden had announced that any private universities that allow criticism of him or Dems shall immediately lose all federal funding -- while keeping the funding if they allow criticisms of Trump -- would that have been constitutional since no school has the right to funding?
How about if Biden cut off all federal funding to universities that deny the validity of the trans identity or the existence of multiple genders -- on the ground that such teaching incites violence against trans people and is hate speech?

Would that have been constitutional?
The only tactic needed to induce support for censorship is train people to believe the views they hate are violence.

Anti-trans activists are inciting violence and calling for genocide, etc.

Opponents of Israel's war on Gaza are calling for genocide and must be censored, etc. etc.

During the Dem primary campaign, one of RFK Jr.'s core issues was free speech and opposing censorship. Then he became known for wanting to combat chronic disease.

So what does he use his first month for? Threatening universities which allow protests against Israel on campus:
Note: you're free to protest the US on campus. You can protest any country or group: just not Israel.

And of course this censorship - like all censorship - is justified the name of stopping hate speech and keeping one group "safe": as if they're being relentlessly attacked.
Every government in the world -- including the most repressive and tyrannical -- "protects free speech" for the views they like.

It's the views they most hate that are targeted. And the most sacred issue for many in the Trump Admin is Israel: that is what's therefore shielded. Image

There's nothing stopping Germany or the EU from funding war in Ukraine until the end of eternity if they wish, or sending their citizens to Ukraine to fight Russia.

But the German Greens -- the worst of the worst -- are emblematic of European liberals: all posturing, no action.
British pundits prance around as if they're Churchill, and Macron walks around like he's a tough guy, and German Greens and other vague Berlin liberals posture as if they're the paragon of compassion: all while they rely on the US to finance wars, fight and protect them.
Zelensky begged and begged Westerners to get off line and stop tweeting with their blue-yellow emojis and instead go to Ukraine to help them fight the Russian Army, knowing he couldn't win without non-Ukrainians volunteering to fight. Very, very few did.
