Mueller memos illustrate media's great divide
Here is an example of twisted media reporting a "story" as if it is factual and straight up, yet complains that news outlets are now political. They skew the story with numerous negative statements about Fox as if they would have defended Nixon in Watergate, and thus equate the actions of Trump as being the same, yet avow the "Memo" is just nothing as such stalwart intellectuals as Rachel Maddow are whining "This is all" ( Yes, Rachel, lying to a Federal Judge to spy on a US citizen is a bad thing, and is the equivalent of the Republicans burglarizing the Democrats). Yet the very topic they are talking about is clearly espoused in their reporting, they skewer the "right" guy, and make out the "left" as just poor little people trying to make the truth known. Yet throughout this disjointed diatribe, it is clear that AP is not a neutral reporter, but a clear left side of the road provocateur. That is the real issue, our society is broken into 2 parts with a middle group of looter beneficiaries willing to sell themselves to the greatest pork producer. Objective reporting is dead in the news, if, and a very big if, it was ever alive. Look back at history and see how every news organization since the War For Independence has a political axe to grind, and did so, all the way through today, from the evil English, the filthy Spaniards, the evil NIps, to the deadly Commies, all the while professing "Thats the way it is". In the 60's, something happened, the change in 1964 on to a cynical, negative, support for the "deep state" started to migrate in, as if someone, somewhere, issued new instructions as to who the "enemy" is.
Of course he does! Settle down to a constant advance of socialism and enslavement of the people by elitist looters like Gergen.
Stop watching the news. Its a waste of time and the only thing it does is brainwash people in favor of their own enslavement because they have never learned to T-H-I-N-K Rationally.
If we don't know what they are doing we never will know. It's time to A-C-T.
You once mentioned running for office. Still considering it? I fear it would ruin your prescient writing. Moved recently after much internal complaining (plus periodic griping in The Gulch) from Bend OR to Santa Fe NM. If this place is the future (which it isn't) you haven't yet seen what Berkeley would be like were it moved to New Mexico. Astoundingly leftist, with practically no disagreement. And people openly wonder why their "remedies" only make the situation worse. I could write a book! Hey??!
Upon checking this out, I discovered something interesting. In reporting on the FGM in Detroit, the AP story removed the Muslim Doctor and just used Doctor. But the LOCAL story clearly had stated she was Muslim.
This is interesting, because in an argument with a local, they were certain the AP story had included it, but it was only local (or Fox, in the end) that made sure to cover it.
And then it hit me. Because all news is local. We are seeing something else. Where the people LOCALLY are getting ONE set of facts, but NATIONALLY it is being CLEANSED of some facts so we do not FIND MANY STORIES are the same.
Even when they are...
My skin crawled!
I also learned something else.
When All the news media coverage causes you to WANT the same thing (Retaliation against Assad for gassing people), then it is CLEARLY a false flag!
But he also had us review stories about INNOCENT people who got AIDS (this was circa 1990). And we saw the same thing you are mentioning. NUMEROUS small town stories about a "relative" who had gotten a blood transfusion, or a routine surgery, and ended up with AIDS. The stories were literally the same, with names changed or relationships changed.
This was before they had the term Astro-Turfing for starting a FAKE grass roots initiative. He explained that the stories are packaged up for small towns, not designed to go national, but peddling a specific story... As a way to introduce it to the country so everyone feels like they had a shared experience, or a related story. Suddenly, accidentally getting AIDS seemed like a thing. (as opposed to the lifestyle thing it really was).
"Wednesday's shooting was the 17th incident of gunfire at an American school this year. Of the 17 incidents, one involved a suicide, two involved active shooters who killed students, two involved people killed in arguments and three involved people who were shot but survived. Nine involved no injuries at all."

Yet the other stories (with almost the same exact verbiage) say 30, 18 depends on the source wanting to impress you:

Here's a British site that says 11:

The narrative changes, the numbers change, but the basic line stays the same, and is trying to incite panic in people with kids, that they are all in deadly danger. Yet no one questions why the loons can be loony for months or years, in full open site, and then go batty.
No Mass Shootings at HOMESCHOOLS...
I think we found the solution!
It's always lib spin propagandizing crap. Sometimes it's appalling lib spin propagandizing crap.
I've also noticed that libs have a monopoly on ugly looking people who on msnbc smirk a lot. I know that does not prove anything. Just sayin'.
1. Robert Mueller was head of the FBI during the non-investigation into the Clinton Uranium One deal while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State. The Russians obtained something like 30% of the US raw uranium stockpile and the Clinton Foundation was paid tens of millions of dollars.
2. James Comey was working on an exoneration draft regarding the Clinton email server even prior to interviewing any witnesses. Changes to the exoneration memo were also suggested by Peter Strzok, who was the primary FBI lead in the investigation.
3. Both Comey and acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe signed versions of the FISA application requesting the wiretapping of Trump advisor Carter Page.
4. In an incredibly rare event the FISA court initially turned down wiretapping warrants on Page. (How rare? Talk about less than a dozen denials out of more than 34,000...)
5. It was only the addition of the infamous Steele dossier to the FISA application which granted the wiretap.
6. The Steele dossier was paid for both by the FBI, but independently also by the DNC and Hillary's presidential campaign - and the FBI was fully aware of this.
7. Steele was rabidly anti-Trump and the FBI was aware of this even though they paid him for the dossier.
8. In a FISA application, it is arequirement by the applicants (the FBI) that ALL known biases of the informants be revealed.
9. Steele paid his informants as well - which would also have been a bias which was a material omission on the FISA application because again it introduces bias.
10. Comey had admitted to Trump that the Steele dossier was full of salacious material and lies. This is a startling admission as the dossier served as the primary source for the FISA application which was ultimately granted.
11. No independent corroboration was ever done on the material in the dossier.
12. FISA applications require at least two credible sources of information in order to be granted. What is interesting is that one of the "corroborating sources" was a Yahoo! News article which can be traced right back to Steele!
This is a tremendous misappropriation of the FISA courts - which by themselves are a violation of the Fourth Amendment IMHO - for political gains. IMO, everyone having to do with it should be tried for treason again this nation, found guilty, and executed.
