Here is our new definitive video report -- in light of the new proof from Politico's @SchreckReports that the key Biden emails from Hunter's laptop were authentic -- on the gigantic pre-election fraud from the CIA, Big Tech and the corporate media:

rumble.com/vmteq5-new-pro…
There is no way to overstate what a massive scandal this is. In the weeks before the election, the CIA invented a blatant lie: that the NY Post's documents were "Russian disinformation." Big Tech then *censored* the reporting, and corporate outlets spent weeks spreading the lie:
The reality is that -- *from the start* -- there was ample evidence proving these documents were real, and that the CIA was lying. But the evidence came from right-wing outlets so the NYT, CNN and friends ignored it. The evidence this new book provides leaves no doubt about it:
The huge irony here is even the ex-CIA operatives -- led by Brennan and Clapper -- *admitted* they had no evidence to believe this came from Russia or was fake. Yet none of the outlets that spread their lies -- CNN, NBC, HuffPost, The Intercept -- will mention all this new proof:
It's impossible to list all the major media outlets who uncritically spreading the CIA's lie for weeks. I showed many TV clips in our new video. Here's one thread collecting other key ones before the election. Look at what unreconstructed liars they are:

A key point: the same media outlets that spread the CIA lies that this was "Russian disinformation" -- all to protect Biden -- are the same ones now who insist they *combat* disinformation and need to censor the internet to protect you from it. Look at what slimy frauds they are:
In light of this new proof that the Biden emails were authentic, I re-visit my resignation from @theintercept over their censorship of my reporting: as a microcosm for how media behaved. But remember: this outlet, claiming rigorous editorial standards, laundered the CIA's lies:
Crucially, none of the outlets which spread CIA's pre-election lies will even bother to grapple with this new proof (try to find any mention of it on The Intercept's site), just as they ignored their lies about Alfa Bank, etc. Their job is to lie, hence my conclusion about them:
I realize our new video report is longer than most. An hour in length, it's a mini-documentary, but I hope you'll watch because this episode is so grave: CIA lies were used by corporate media & Big Tech to censor pre-election reporting off the internet:

rumble.com/vmteq5-new-pro…
CNN is state TV.

That's why their newsroom and airwaves are filled with ex CIA and intelligence operatives, FBI officials, Pentagon functionaries and other security state ghouls telling lies like this under the guise of "news," right out in the open:

I find it so interesting when long-obvious truths suddenly are acknowledged in mainstream circles.

Here, in the WPost, even @TaylorLorenz (!!) admits that the hordes of #Resistance freaks and anti-Trump obsessives are as conspiratorial and deranged as what they claim QAnon is:
Here's @SohrabAhmari in the @NewStatesman on how many prominent liberals -- not anonymous Twitter trolls but major DNC donors and academics -- are deranged and drowning in moronic conspiracy theories.

This has been obvious since Russiagate insanity:

newstatesman.com/international-…
@SohrabAhmari @NewStatesman Just by the way: a non-trivial sector of the Brazilian left still believes the 2018 stabbing attack on Jair Bolsonaro was fake -- despite doctor testimony, his multiple surgeries, etc. -- and now believes the same about the attack on Trump.🇧🇷

Julian Assange landed today in Australia a free man.

He arrived to what the NYT described as "a hero's welcome." Australia's full political spectrum demanded his release.

The first call Assange received on landing was from Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, to welcome him home. Image
The judge, when accepting his plea deal, noted that the US was **unable to identify a single victim** that this supposed crime produced.

Assange's lawyers and wife credited the Australian people for demanding their leaders secure Assange's release.

Assange has been detained for 14 years, and imprisoned in a harsh high-security British prison for 5.

He was never convicted of any crime other than a bail-jumping misdemeanor.

He had extraordinary advocates who worked 15 years to secure his freedom:

There are so many lies that @kaitlancollins allowed career liar Andrew McCabe to tell in this interview about the Assange case with no pushback.

Just to highlight one: WikiLeaks reached out to Hillary's State Dept before publishing cables to ask for input, and they refused.
Whenever someone exposes USG's secret crimes, they always accuse the person of "having blood on their hands."

In 2010, McClatchy -- the only big US outlet to get Iraqi WMDs right -- documented the utter lack of evidence that Assange endangered anyone:

Also: US corporate media always tries to deny "journalist" status to anyone who actually does real adversarial reporting against the US Govt, rather than just doing a Natasha Bertrand of writing down what CIA orders.

Assange won multiple journalism awards around the world:👇

Every media model has dangers: corporate advertisers, billionaires, audience funding.

Independent media is vital, but "audience capture" - fear of angering ideological viewers - is real.

Listen to @ComicDaveSmith on why he has been so vocally critical of Israel despite this:
I urge everyone to watch the repulsive exchange between Ron Paul and Rudy Giuliani at the 2008 GOP debate Dave mentioned.

It shows how blind and repressive the Bush-Cheney-era GOP - and US - were, and still are, to core truths about our foreign policy:

That military aggression by the US and allies (Israel) will produce "blowback" -- meaning the people we bomb will hate us and want to kill us in return -- was created by the CIA!

Yet it's so taboo that TikTok was forced to censor the bin Laden letter because it discuss this. Image

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.
