Political capitalization during COVID-19 crisis: Some Democrats downplayed COVID-19 severity, then called for panic to politically capitalize and blame Trump and conservative media
During the early stages of the COVID-19 crisis, some Democratic politicians and media figures, including Nancy Pelosi, downplayed the severity of the situation and encouraged people not to panic. However, they later flipped the narrative and called for widespread panic and shutdowns. The reason for this change, according to the speaker, is that the Democrats saw an opportunity to politically capitalize on the crisis by blaming President Trump for not warning the public early enough and by accusing conservative media of downplaying the situation. This switch from reassurance to panic served the Democrats' goals of damaging Trump at the polls and advancing their ideological agendas.
Democrats accused of rewriting history on COVID-19 shutdowns: MSNBC's Joy Reid faced criticism for her baseless claims about Trump and protesters inciting violence. Democrats like Pelosi and Ellison's past statements were questioned for their credibility, as they lack solid evidence and are common Democrat talking points.
During a discussion about Nancy Pelosi's reason for telling people not to panic during the COVID-19 pandemic, it was suggested that she is now rewriting history to make it seem beneficial for the Democrats to keep people panicked for economic shutdowns. MSNBC's Joy Reid was criticized for making baseless claims that Trump and protesters are inciting violence, and she also linked the shutdowns to identity politics and class warfare. The accusations against Ellison and Pelosi's past statements were brought up to question their credibility. It was emphasized that these are common Democrat talking points, but they lack factual evidence and should be disregarded.
Democrats' Economic Policies Cause Confusion and Frustration: The push for degrowth and reduced carbon emissions by Democrats may stifle entrepreneurial spirit and lead to economic hardship, raising concerns about their true intentions and the long-term consequences of their policies.
The ongoing economic restrictions and shutdowns implemented by some Democrats are causing confusion and frustration among the American people. People are questioning why certain businesses are allowed to operate while others are not, and they feel that their entrepreneurial spirit is being stifled. The left's push for degrowth and reduced carbon emissions, even if well-intentioned, may not be effective in the long term and could lead to economic hardship for individuals and businesses. The lack of a clear exit plan from the Democrats raises concerns about their true intentions and the potential long-term consequences of their policies.
Democrats using government shutdown to further their agenda: Democrats exploit shutdown for ideological goals, damage Trump's approval, and prolong crisis by fueling fear and panic through media
Certain Democratic groups, who have infiltrated mainstream thinking, are using the government shutdown as a means to achieve their ideological goals, damage President Trump's approval ratings, and blame conservative media for the coronavirus crisis. They don't seem concerned about the economic and personal hardships caused by the shutdown. Instead, they thrive on the panic and fear it generates, which keeps the shutdown going and reinforces their narrative that the situation is dire. The media, in turn, fuels this narrative by blaming conservative media outlets like Fox News for downplaying the virus, even when the opposite is true. This creates a vicious cycle that benefits the Democratic agenda and prolongs the shutdown.
Debate over who downplayed COVID-19 severity, accusations towards Fox News and Bongino, Chinese government's role, Spygate scandal: Bongino defends against accusations of downplaying COVID-19 severity, accuses Chinese government of misinformation, promotes Stamps.com, continues investigating spygate scandal
There has been a debate about who downplayed the severity of the virus outbreak in its early stages. While some have accused Fox News and its personalities, including Dan Bongino, of minimizing the situation, Bongino argues that it was actually the Chinese government that misinformed people about the virus. He believes that the media and their agenda to destroy Trump and conservative media outlets are responsible for the flip from not panicking to panicking. Meanwhile, Bongino promotes Stamps.com as a solution to avoid crowds at the post office during the pandemic. Additionally, there has been a surge of information regarding the spygate scandal, and Bongino promises to keep exploring this topic on his show.
Hillary Clinton's Role in Spreading Russian Disinfo: Despite popular belief, Russian disinfo about FBI's Trump probe was actually a Clinton campaign op. Evidence: paid dossier & echoed statements.
The Russian disinformation narrative surrounding the FBI's investigation into the Trump campaign during the 2016 election was not the result of Russian manipulation, but rather a Hillary Clinton campaign operation. The evidence includes a dossier paid for by Hillary's team and the campaign manager's public statements that echoed the language in the dossier around the same time. The speaker emphasizes that the FBI was not tricked by Russian disinformation, but rather supported a political operation against the Trump campaign. The speaker also encourages moving past the Russian disinformation narrative and focusing on the actual political events.
Rep. Nunes questions origin of intelligence given to FBI in 2016: Rep. Nunes is investigating how intelligence attributed to Russians was made to appear genuine and if the FBI knew the dossier was a hoax since January 2017
Representative Devin Nunes is suggesting that intelligence given to the FBI by the CIA in 2016, which is now a focus of investigation, may involve fake information attributed to Russians. Nunes is questioning how this intelligence was attributed to Russians and who had access to legitimate Russian intelligence sources to make it appear genuine. He also believes that the FBI had knowledge that the dossier, which was a significant part of the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, was a hoax as early as January 2017. Nunes accuses John Brennan of working through intelligence back channels, suggesting a more covert role in the matter. The investigation is now focused on understanding exactly what information was given to the FBI and by whom.
CIA's Role in Origins of Russia Probe Questioned: Former CIA Director John Brennan used back channels to share Steele dossier info with politicians, who then passed it to FBI, but FBI lawyers weren't aware of CIA's involvement, casting doubt on dossier's credibility
During the summer of 2016, former CIA Director John Brennan used back channels to feed information to politicians, who then passed it on to the FBI. This information, which originated from the infamous Steele dossier, was believed to be coming from multiple sources, leading the FBI to investigate. However, Lisa Page, an FBI lawyer, testified that she was not aware of the CIA providing these reports to the FBI, and it's likely that everyone involved was operating under the belief that they were receiving information from different sources. This is a significant revelation, as it shows that the origins of the FBI's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election were based on potentially misleading information. Furthermore, the speaker emphasizes that the entire story surrounding the Steele dossier is a "farce" and "nonsense" started by those associated with it.
New Masculine Body Wash and FBI Investigation Updates: Duke Canada introduces Thick body wash, a cost-effective, plant-based alternative to traditional washes. The FBI confirmed they investigated Carter Page during the 2016 election, and new details emerged in the Sydney Morning Herald report.
Duke Canada Supply Company has introduced a new product called Thick body wash, which is three times thicker than common body washes and comes in large containers with distinctly masculine scents. Thick's high viscosity makes it a cost-effective alternative to traditional body washes. The body wash is made with plant-based thickeners for superior lather and provides a workout while in use. Despite some misinformation circulating about its origin story, the product is American-made. Separately, there have been recent revelations about the origins of the investigation into the Trump campaign during the 2016 election. Contrary to previous narratives, it has been confirmed that the FBI was indeed spying on Carter Page, who was a member of the Trump campaign at the time they obtained a FISA warrant to do so. This information was previously declassified in the IG report. Additionally, the Sydney Morning Herald released a report revealing new details about the investigation, adding to the growing body of information about the situation. Overall, it's important to stay informed and not rely on misinformation or false narratives when interpreting news and events.
Australian diplomat's tip to FBI may not have been entirely truthful: New information suggests the initial reason for the FBI's investigation into the Trump campaign may have been based on unofficial and potentially inaccurate information
The initial reason given for opening a criminal investigation into the Trump campaign by the FBI, which was based on a tip from an Australian diplomat named Downer about Russian dirt on Hillary Clinton, may not have been entirely truthful. Downer reportedly passed on this information through unofficial channels without government approval, and it was prompted by Trump's nomination as the Republican candidate rather than the Wikileaks release of DNC emails as previously stated. This new information raises questions about the motivations behind the FBI's investigation and the accuracy of the information used to justify it.
Politically motivated spying operation against Trump campaign: The FBI and CIA's investigation into Trump's campaign for Russian collusion was based on fabricated evidence from Hillary Clinton's team, and the FBI knowingly used this information to spy, potentially colluding with the Hillary team.
The FBI and CIA's investigation into the Trump campaign for collusion with Russia was based on a political operation orchestrated by Hillary Clinton's team, not on official intelligence. The evidence, such as the Steele dossier, was fabricated and passed through unofficial channels. The FBI knowingly used this information, which they believed to be from Russian sources, to spy on the Trump campaign, potentially colluding with the Hillary team. The infamous "well-developed conspiracy" language in the FBI's application to spy on the Trump team was literally copied from the Steele dossier. The source of this information, Sergei Million, has denied being a source and the authenticity of the dossier is questionable. Overall, this investigation was a politically motivated spying operation, not a serious case of Russian collusion.
FBI's use of information from a potential Russian collusion suspect to obtain a FISA warrant on Trump: The FBI's use of a suspect's information in a counterintelligence investigation to obtain a FISA warrant on a presidential candidate raises questions about the legitimacy of the warrant and the FBI's handling of the investigation.
The FBI used information from a man they were investigating for potential Russian collusion, Sergei Million, to obtain a FISA warrant to spy on presidential candidate Donald Trump. However, it's unclear if Million was even the source of the information in the dossier, and the FBI had an open counterintelligence investigation on Million at the same time. To add to the confusion, there's evidence suggesting the FBI may have had a FISA warrant on Million the whole time. This raises serious questions about the legitimacy of the FISA warrant and the FBI's handling of the investigation.
FBI's Use of Unverified Information for FISA Warrant: The FBI may have used unreliable information from an open investigation to obtain a FISA warrant, potentially to discredit Trump associates, despite the information's questionable origins.
The FBI may have used an open investigation on a person believed to have Russian connections as a source to spy on a presidential candidate, even though the information attributed to him was questionable and possibly fabricated. Dan Bongino discussed this in detail, mentioning a person named Million, who was believed to have had contact with Russians and was under investigation. The FBI reportedly obtained information about Million through a FISA warrant, and later, information attributed to Million was leaked to the media, potentially to discredit Trump associates like Kushner. However, there is no evidence that Million actually said the incriminating things attributed to him. The timing of a 2017 article by Natasha Bertrand, which mentioned McCabe's desire to mobilize against a FISA target, is also suspicious. It's important to note that these allegations are complex and require further investigation. Nonetheless, they raise serious questions about the FBI's handling of the Russia investigation during the 2016 election.
