I saw a Facebook post today, anti Trump and have not heard of TRUTH OUT.org, but it appears to be Leftist propaganda. Any background on the group?

Truthout is associated with William Rivers Pitt. A nasty, ego maniacal commie who reached the pinnacle of his fame during the Bush admin when he wrote an erroneous article reporting that a bunch of Bush’s cabinet members were about to be indicted, etc. It all turned out to be false and His reputation as a ‘journalist’ was ruined. He was a pied piper over at democratic underground for a long time with a big following of commies.

Long story short, truthout is leftist propaganda conceived in the alcohol addled mind of William Rivers Pitt.

Look up truthout in the keywords... it has quite a history... involved in the lib attempt at a previous impeachment, which, like this latest one, emanated from the bureaucracy being offended that they weren’t treated as infallible and supreme.

Pitt and former UNSCOM inspector Ritter, who was on Saddam’s teat through the financing of a guy named al Khafiji, who was paid through Iraqi oil vouchers, as I recall, cowrote a book.

Bill Ayers (Hussein’s best friend) and Truthout.org: Helping Obama, Hillary, Bernie Look Moderate

Bill Ayers. Remember him?: Unrepentant terrorist, SDS riotmaker, pal and political mentor of young Barack Obama, and putative author/ghostwriter of Obama’s famous 1995 memoir, Dreams of My Father. In 2011, Ayers (shown) publicly claimed authorship of Dreams (see video of Ayers here) after Dr. Jack Cashill’s forensic literary analysis - in a 2008 article and his more extensive book-length analysis in 2011, Deconstructing Obama had convincingly made the case that Ayers, a talented wordsmith, had written the book for the unskilled Obama to help launch the up-and-coming young comrade’s political career.
During Obama’s 2008 run for the White House, his longtime association with Ayers and Ayers’ terrorist wife Bernadine Dohrn became a burning issue, at least for conservatives; the liberal-left establishment media either ignored the issue completely or unquestioningly accepted Ayers’ assertion that he and Obama barely knew each other, having merely served together on the boards of a couple of non-profit organizations. Obama’s radical mentor Ayers continues to publicly resurface, on his weblog, in speaking engagements at colleges and universities, in friendly interviews with media organizations that dependably lob easy questions, and in his regular op-eds for “alternative” media, such as the ultra-left Truthout.org, where Ayers is listed as not only a contributing writer, but also a major financial contributor and a member of the board of advisers.
