It’s easy to forget about the stunt the Deep State tried to pull on the Trump campaign and thus the rest of the country what with all of the COVID drama going on. Luckily, Techno Fog stays on top of these things and is good enough to share them with us in a way that makes sense.
Even for this Twitchy editor.
This is pretty crazy stuff about the New York Times and Peter Strzok.
New docs – 2/2017 Peter Strzok notes on NYT Trump/Russia reporting.
NYT claimed that Trump campaign had repeated contacts w/ senior Russian intelligence officials before election.
Strzok: "misleading and inaccurate… no evidence [of this]."

No evidence of this.
Huh.
That never stopped either of them before.
NYT: Manafort was on the calls w/ the Russian intelligence officials.
FBI: "We are unaware of any calls with any Russian govt official in which Manafort was a party." pic.twitter.com/mUqk9d1fHA

Cripes.
So who was lying to whom?
And when?
This is all such a mess.
NYT: Roger Stone was part of the FBI's inquiry into Russian ties.
FBI: "We have not investigated Roger Stone" pic.twitter.com/9Gtotx6bWV

Wrong again.
It’s like Peter Strzok is always somehow involved in this crap, right?
Fascinating to see real-time FBI assessment of inaccurate reporting.
Comey also disputed the story in June 2017.
Despite Comey denial, NYT stood by their sources: the "current and former" US officials leaking false info. pic.twitter.com/EOH0wb0kZv

Crazy stuff.
I'm ready for justice to be served.

Not holding our breath, unfortunately.
The dumpster is getting awful full. Might need another one for those fake Pulitzers
