That's because it came from the New York Times. They have zero journalistic integrity. They're the same ones who cried wolf about the Russian collusion conspiracy for three years. I'll believe it when I see it (this bounty stuff) corroborated by a reputable source, not the NYT. Are there any available? Not saying it would surprise me, given that the US has whacked Russian mercenaries in Syria. But so what?

B ) What was congress briefed on if the intel doesn't exist? https://www.politico.com/news/2020/06/29/nancy-pelosi-demands-briefing-russian-bounties-344219 Edited July 3, 2020 by jakee Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest #104 July 3, 2020 (edited) At least I can spell. This is yet another red herring where the NYT buys something totally bogus because it's too good to be true (like the phony Russia dossier) and publishes it without any kind of real investigation. It will be quietly disclaimed later after all the uproar has passed. You read it here first. Edited July 3, 2020 by Guest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It will be quietly disclaimed later after all the uproar has passed. You read it here first. You seem to be confused on a number of issues. First, Buzzfeed published the Steele dossier. Buzzfeed is not the New York Times, nor is it part of the same company or ownership structure. Second, the Steele dossier and the Russia collusion story are not the same thing, and you can't treat the two as completely interchangeable.

There's a reason those outlets trust the NYT. Please cite all of the major stories in the last 6 months where the NYT was shown to be 'totally bogus' and published 'without investigation'.

Even FOX has reported that Congress and leaders of the House have received intel briefings on the matter. The same one your leader has called a "Hoax". Must be a new protocol now for the congress and house to receive "Hoax" briefings from US intel. How is trump's friend and buddy President Xi doing in Hong Kong now?

There is nothing being published by RT on this issue that would be contradictory to the approval of Vladimir Putin. You may be able to accuse NYT of using this to throw shade at Trump but the story is very real that the intel existed and was credible enough to look into. Edited to eliminate the notion that Putin would read the article and approve it for publication. Edited July 3, 2020 by DJL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Putin doesn't need to review RT propaganda. Its editors and story tellers know the talking points. They know that anything that makes Russia or Putin look bad could send them out of a three story window onto the street below. Its like the US military and ex-military supporters of trump. He stated he was the wartime president for the war on covid. Then he went AWOL. Yet his apologists won't hold him to account for that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
