For those who don't understand what's happening, this is dove-tailing straight into Seth Rich, which is something the leftists have DESPERATELY been trying to stave off.  The lie the media has been pushing today is "Trump was so freaked about covering up his Russian ties and involvement with the DNC hack that he offered Assange a pardon to say it wasn't the Russians".

However, Assange already publicly said it wasn't the Russians.  Kim Dotcom, who was in the middle of the custody chain of DNC material, says Trump was actually trying to find out who was responsible for the "hack", i.e. exposing CrowdStrike and the entire plot.

You have to understand, even though the "Trump and Putin stole the election from Hillary" has long been considered ridiculous, many have committed a lot of energy and blown a lot of credibility, hence why they jump like a cat on a string if it remotely ties Trump to Russia.  They will ride the "Trump/Russia" lie to the grave, but the clock is running out.

This is getting ridiculous, like the kid with cookie crumbs all over his face, all the while denying he ate the whole bag.
The Dims are in panic mode, even Reuters and AP are pushing this story as if it were true.

Lefties today are biting down hard on this thing....  Assange was likely offered protection, backed up by Kim Dotcom today.

I may bang out an article on this....

So they made something up and just expected everyone to believe it? And I'm sure many did. Hell, there will still be thousands that believe this lie come election day. The damage is done.

I don't think that's the case.  Nobody believes Trump and Putin conspired to steal the election.  That's what the Mueller investigation was supposed to be about (and in fact, encouraged by Trump), and the Mueller report showed there was no such collusion with the Trump campaign.  The only people still hanging onto that for dear life are a handful of media propagandists and never-Trump idiots.

This is a major pillar in the attempted takedown of Trump that's run its course.

Oh come on Taxed. You are smarter than that. Lots of people think Putin and Trump worked together to rig the election. I'd be willing to bet that at least 15% of the country is 100% convinced Trump and Putin worked together. At least 15%.

Not only made it up, but its a repeat.


QuoteBut I'd like to offer several reasons to take a deep breath on this claim. Let's start with the fact that a very different version of this story has already been told back in 2017. Back then, Allahpundit wrote about a Wall Street Journal piece which claimed it was Dana Rohrabacher who had contacted the White House to propose a deal in which Assange would get some kind of pardon in exchange for proof that Russia was not behind the DNC hack:

QuoteAccording to Rohrabacher's statement, Assange was already saying at the time of their meeting that Russia wasn't behind the hack, but he'd been saying that long before then, including prior to the election. So why would Trump need to bribe Assange to say something Assange was already saying every time he was asked?

I would make the statement nobody will believe this, but damn you would not believe some of the people out there. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... I'll give you 15%....  But a majority of them are people who will believe it regardless of facts.

Yeah, that's exactly what it looks like. But they failed unless you're a complete idiot lib.
