The New York Times just tried to spin the Durham Annex… and Matt Taibbi lit them up.

Charlie Savage claims it debunks Trump and proves Russian fabrication. Let’s break down what’s actually in the report—and how Savage is rewriting history. 🧵
1/8
Savage points to a “composite” email made by Russian spies. But that applies to ONE pair of emails. The rest of the Durham annex? Sourced from real U.S. victims, confirmed by multiple reports. NYT ignores that entirely. Classic misdirection.
2/8
Savage rehashes old lies to smear Kash Patel, same Kash who co-authored the Nunes memo. Remember when the NYT said the Steele Dossier was “just one thread”?

IG Horowitz: Steele’s info was “central and essential.”
Oops.
3/8
He also downplays the FBI’s shady surveillance of Carter Page… never mentions Page was a CIA asset. The same lie that got FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith criminally convicted. Savage repeated the omission.
4/8
Worst part? Savage rewrites the entire origin of Crossfire Hurricane. Leaves out George Papadopoulos. Hides that even the Australian source said there was no mention of emails, no dirt, no Russian coordination. The FBI knew it too, ignored it anyway.
5/8
Papadopoulos wasn’t the start of Russiagate. Durham shows it started with U.S. intel about Russia hurting Hillary, not Trump. But that doesn’t fit the Times narrative… so they rewrite history and gaslight their readers.
6/8
Taibbi ends with this:

“Give back your Pulitzer, you clowns.”
After years of lies, smears, and coverups, from the Steele dossier to Hamilton 68 to this latest NYT hack job, it’s hard to argue.
7/8

"Will no one rid me of this meddlesome President?"

The Russia hoax wasn't just dirty politics — it was an op.

A massive, coordinated lie to take down Trump.

Newly declassified docs lay it bare. Let’s walk through it. 🧵
1/11
Hillary Clinton’s campaign was imploding in July 2016.
Leaked DNC emails showed the party rigged the primary against Bernie.
She needed a distraction — fast.
2/11
Enter Julianne Smith (Clinton foreign policy advisor) & Leonard Benardo (Soros' Open Society).
Declassified Durham Annex shows:
- Smith cooked up a smear plan
- Clinton approved it
- Media and intel would "add oil to the fire"

Senate Democrats tried to extort President Trump for $1 BILLION just to confirm his nominees.

Trump’s response?
“Go pound sand.”
Here’s what Senator Mullins just revealed—and what’s coming next 🧵
1/7
Senator Markwayne Mullins:
“I’ve spoken with President Trump a lot in the past 24 hours. Senate Democrats demanded a billion dollars in pet projects to move forward his nominees. Trump told them to pound sand. NO DEAL.”
2/7
Let that sink in:
Democrats are holding up government appointments unless Trump gives them a $1B taxpayer-funded bribe.

That’s not governing. That’s ransom.

🧵 THREAD: Rachel Maddow’s Greatest Hits, A Masterclass in Media Disinformation

Let’s walk through how MSNBC’s top anchor misled the public on Russia, Trump, COVID, and censorship—with total confidence and zero accountability.

Buckle up. This is pure propaganda. ⬇️
1/8
"The Trump campaign colluded with Russia."

Maddow opened one monologue claiming the "bottom line" of the Steele dossier was Trump colluded with Russia.

That claim was never proven. Not by Mueller, not by the Senate Intel Committee, not by Durham.
But Maddow said it like it was gospel.
2/8
The Alfa Bank Hoax

She doubled down on the Alfa Bank story—saying Trump servers had “covert communications” with Russia’s Alfa Bank.

- Reality check:
That claim was fabricated by Clinton campaign operatives, discredited by the FBI, and called out by Durham as data manipulation.

The July Jobs Report is NOT bad news.
In fact, it might be the best news for America in years.
Let’s walk through what the regime media doesn’t want you to understand… 🧵
1/15
First, ignore the headline.
The BLS said “only 73K jobs” were added.
But here’s what actually happened:
- Federal jobs dropped again
- Private wages beat inflation
- Gov’t data manipulators got canned
2/15
We’ve now had 6 straight months of shrinking the federal workforce.

That hasn’t happened in a non-recession since the ‘90s.

Biden added jobs by inflating bureaucracies. Trump’s cutting them.

The Durham Annex was just declassified—and it exposes the Clinton campaign's plan to fabricate the Trump-Russia narrative BEFORE Trump was even the nominee.
It also shows Brennan briefed Obama, Biden, Clapper & Comey on the entire thing.
Let’s walk through it: 🧵
1/13
In JAN 2016, intel intercepted a convo between Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Open Society officials.
She allegedly said Obama wanted to “scuttle” the FBI’s Clinton email probe to protect his legacy.
This was months before Trump even secured the nomination.
2/13 Image
In MAR 2016, Russian analysts reported that Clinton’s team—with help from “special services” (FBI/CIA?)—was preparing to tie Trump to the “Russian mafia” via shady business links.
They were naming names: Agalarov, Sapir, Bayrock, etc.

🧵THREAD: LYIN' SCHIFF EXPOSED — Receipts from the Durham Annex drop
1/10
March 18, 2017: Adam Schiff goes on national TV and solemnly declares:

“There is circumstantial evidence of collusion. There is direct evidence, I think, of deception.”
2/10
He wasn’t just wrong.
He was lying — and he knew it.

Durham just confirmed it. 👇
