Real World Event Discussions

I would not care if Hunter Biden embezzled zillions and had relations with a dead donkey on film.

Giuliani's 'October Surprise' already shows signs of backfiring
This week's revelations were supposed to make Joe Biden look bad. Instead, they're proving to be a far bigger problem for his GOP accusers.

lready-shows-signs-backfiring-n1243707


It was a couple of years ago when Steve Bannon was quoted saying, "The Democrats don't matter. The real opposition is the media. And the way to deal with them is to flood the zone with s--t."

With this in mind, you probably heard this week from your weird relatives who consume conservative media all day, with emails about a New York Post story that was literally unbelievable. The details are a convoluted mess -- they involve Hunter Biden, a Ukrainian gas company, an alleged laptop, some alleged emails, and an unnamed shop owner in Delaware -- which the conservative tabloid learned of by way of Bannon and Rudy Giuliani.

The problem -- one of them, anyway -- is that the underlying premise of the allegations were discredited quite a while ago, which is why most major news organizations had the good sense to steer clear of the New York Post's report.

Making matters worse is the fact that this effort to "flood the zone with s--t" appears to be backfiring. NBC News reported overnight:

Federal investigators are examining whether the emails allegedly describing activities by Joe Biden and his son Hunter and found on a laptop at a Delaware repair shop are linked to a foreign intelligence operation, two people familiar with the matter told NBC News.

What was apparently intended to be Giuliani's "October Surprise" is looking like the product of a Russian intelligence operation directed at the U.S. presidential election. Indeed, the New York Times had a good report on this a couple of days ago:

Some security experts expressed skepticism about the provenance and authenticity of the emails. The Times reported last January that Burisma had been hacked by the same Russian GRU unit that was one of two groups that hacked the Democratic National Committee in 2016. Last month, United States intelligence analysts contacted several people with knowledge of the Burisma hack for further information after they had picked up chatter that stolen Burisma emails would be leaked in the form of an "October surprise."

If this sounds quite a bit like the scheme that unfolded four years ago around this time, it's not your imagination.
---
Giuliani's "October Surprise" is an epic self-own. Instead of presenting a legitimate concern, he instead demonstrated once again that Trump and his cronies are perfectly happy to actively conspire with hostile foreign intelligence services to flood us with deceit and disinformation.

Kinda like Siggy, huh?

You fell for the first round of RUSSIA!!!RUSSIA!!!RUSSIA!!! collusion, completely blew past the Mueller Report saying there wasn't any, and now you're being a sucker of the NYTimes ... again.

There's as much evidence here as there was for Iraq's WMDs. Did you fall for that one, too?

Because they'd never ever EVER lie to you again in a bazillion years?



So, instead of ENTERTAINING THE POSSIBILITY that if there was such a MASSIVE LIE orchestrated for SO LONG ACROSS GOVERNMENT AGENCIES AND MEDIA just to DUPE YOU ...

... and if they did it once they MIGHT POSSIBLY DO IT AGAIN ...

.... just fuggedaboudit?

These people can't see more than 4 years in the future.

Why would you expect them to remember or care about anything that happened more than 4 years ago?

Stay classy, Nilbog.


If anybody ever dissects the RWED in a history class of how the world went crazy in 2020, you're going to see a lot of death wishing coming from the Leftists on this board, and none of it coming from anybody else, despite endless claims to the contrary.

Giuliani gave Hunter Biden story to New York Post because 'nobody else would take it' at face value

-new-york-post-because-nobody-else-take-face-value


"It's not something that meets my journalistic standards," one Post reporter told New York Magazine. Another Post reporter called it "very flimsy," adding that the article "just makes you cringe and roll your eyes, and it's hard to stomach, but at the same time we kind of know that you're signing up for stuff like that. ... It's disappointing. It sucks to, like, work for, like, a propaganda outlet."
