Matt Taibbi and Racket News have reported the origin of Hillary's RussiaGate hoax - surprise: it was Hillary. She is who betrayed the President (by calling him "illegitimate" and a traitor), deceived the nation, confused our allies, and tricked the world - including Russia - causing pure chaos. Because the Press will, apparently, print anything she says.
Of course, that she was behind all this was first reported in 2017, by Jonathan Alter and Amy Parnes, who were actually in the room as the whole thing began:
“Within 24 hours of her concession speech,” the authors report, campaign manager Robby Mook and campaign chair John Podesta “assembled her communications team at the Brooklyn headquarters to engineer the case that the election wasn’t entirely on the up-and-up. For a couple of hours, with Shake Shack containers littering the room, they went over the script they would pitch to the press and the public. Already, Russian hacking was the centerpiece of the argument.”
That most reporters never really acted like it - since 2016 - is a nice reminder of the "eerie" hold on the Press that Christopher Hitchens mentioned to Charlie Rose, all the way back in 1999.
Just like our reporters also, somehow, conveniently "forgot" Bill Clinton is a multiple rapist.
