jonmx 1,651 Posted May 22, 2023 4 minutes ago, The Real timschochet said: Some of these, like Operation Paperclip, are true enough, though way overstated. Some of them, like Operation Mockingbird, are pretty much bullsh!t. The CIA did some awful things but they were mostly incompetent (like trying to kill Fidel Castro with exploding cigars, the Bay of Pigs, the loss of the Shah of Iran, etc, etc,) The overall conjecture you place on them from your conspiracy sources is a false one. And yes Oswald was a lone nut. Sorry. The CIA has been given a license to kill, torture and lie. You may chose to believe those lies, but the truth is even far worse than the conspiracy theories even know. We are nothing but frogs in boiling water and we are the ones who are supplying the wood for the fire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was aware that some news outlets chose not to emphasize the story because certain aspects claimed by the Trump campaign and Rudy G were not credible. But they did report on it. I wasn’t aware at the time that Russia might be connected though it wouldn’t shock me, Russia absolutely wanted Trump to win in 2016 and 2020, conspired (rather ineptly) to make that happen, and none of that is a hoax. I don’t know why I’m up. Insomnia. I’m going back to sleep. Biden in the debate: “There are 50 former national intelligence folks who said that what he's accusing me of is a Russian plant,” Biden said. “… Five former heads of the CIA, both parties, say what he's saying is a bunch of garbage. Nobody believes it except his good friend Rudy Giuliani.” You did watch the debates, no? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But Trump spews so much garbage that it’s certainly plausible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawkeye21 1,878 Posted May 22, 2023 9 hours ago, The Real timschochet said: This is true. But there is a significant difference: almost all liberals and independents still watch the mainstream media. They are getting their news from the same sources. Meanwhile, conservatives have decided that the MSM cannot be trusted and most of them are getting their news from right wing sources, which frankly are lying to them (as the Dominion lawsuit demonstrated.) This sets conservatives apart from everyone else IMO. No one should be relying on the MSM. The Liberal media is terrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
