Washington Post Offered Money To Roy Moore Accusers While Getting “Tips” From Mitch McConnell
Squawker ^ | November 10, 2017 | Jack Kenrick-

In possibly the biggest example yet that it’s the mainstream press and not the so called “fringe sites” who really produce the most actual fake news. New evidence has now come to light that the Washington Post’s now infamous hit piece on Judge Roy Moore might in fact be a complete fabrication, or at least a carefully planned exaggeration of the truth. This of course hasn’t stopped leading RINO elements of the GOP from calling for Moore’s head. As according to the likes of Mitt Romney, the American principle of innocent until proven guilty somehow doesn’t apply in politics.

The core problem of the Washington Post article is that it all relies on the narrative that while working on a simple story regarding Moore’s Senate campaign. A Post reporter suddenly became aware of the fact that allegedly almost 4 decades ago, Mr. Moore once sought relationships with a series of teenage girls. But how did this reporter suddenly become aware of this information? Information that for the previous 38 years no one had seemingly ever discussed or been aware of.

Also worth considering is the fact the accusations revolve around 4 different women who all claim to have never met or even previously been aware of each other. So how did the Post reporter even suddenly become aware of these girls identities and manage to track them all down 4 decades later? Let alone convince them all to suddenly come out publicly about alleged crimes they had seemingly happily stayed quite about for 38 years.

If all the above isn’t inherently suspect enough for you on its own, take into consideration the fact that the moral character of the stories lead writers are certainly suspect as well. With author Stephanie McCrummen having a lengthy criminal record stretching over three states including being caught writing fake checks. Worse yet is the fact that new accusations are now claiming that the stories other lead writer Beth Reinhard, apparently was offering up $1000 in cash to any Alabaman women willing to accuse Roy Moore of sexual misconduct. This story coming from a U.S. naval veteran who claims the taped conversation is now with a local DA’s office.

If money was really being offered up, all that this story would really need to find was someone who would jump at the opportunity to take down the GOP candidate. Which is why the most damning bit of evidence to the narrative is probably the background of one of the key accusers. Deborah Gibson is not only a proud progressive activist, she even has previously worked for the DNC as a sign langue interpreter. This includes interpreting for both Joe Biden and Hilary Clinton herself during the previous election cycle. It’s incredibly convenient the Washington Post didn’t think to mention that their accuser is an avowed liberal with ties to the DNC, and is even actively campaigning for Moore’s opponent Doug Jones. A neutral victim with nothing to gain from these accusations, Gibson is not.

There is also the recent suggestion that the real puppet master behind the strings of this story is none other than Mitch McConnell. No friend to Moore or Trump for that matter, its now come to light that McConnell’s people had been spreading these allegations out long before the Washington Post story, hoping to hurt Moore’s election chances. Whether it was directly offered up to the Post by McConnell or they simply just caught wind of the story that his office had already been slowly seeding out into the world we may never know. But taking down Judge Roy Moore is certainly in the interests of both the left leaning Washington Post and anti-Trump GOP leader McConnell.

So one reporter on the story has a corrupt background and the other is paying for information to damage Moore. Nothing like credible, unbiased, honest journalism.

The person who was offered money for false testimony needs to come forward NOW.

When this “story” first emerged I thought, “What if he is purposely being lynched?”

It’s just SO amazing that they found *4* women for the story!
Did Bezos deem that 4 was the critical mass so that NOBODY would suspect a thing?

I guess.
If this is true why go to the DA? Go to a big alt media outlet and let them hear it.

Surely there is a law or a rule that can be used to force McConnell to resign from the Senate for creating falsehoods against another Republican.

And why the hell did Trump hire McConnell’s wife?

That’s just how many took the bait when they dragged a $100 bill through the trailer park.

Maybe they are following islam’s lead? Don’t they require 4 witnesses to rape, in order to make a charge? So, 4 accusers here would fit.

Kentuckians need to vote him out ASAP. He’s worse than McCain even.

McConnell is a dirty bird.
Same as McCain, but with less phony, baloney preaching about
what the GOP does right and wrong.

I expect McConnell to step down first thing Monday morning as well as McCain, King, and the rest of the Cabal of traitorous GOPe nitwits.

...”I burned my Amazon account months ago, deleted everything I could.”...

I have heard people say they are turning to Ebay because they fear the power that Bezos is amassing and of how he is using that to destroy people who do not share his political and moral ideology through the Washington Post. I have to admit that Amazon has made my life much easier and I have spent a pile of money there. This Roy Moore thing is making me rethink how I might live my life without Amazon. I guess I am part of the problem.

“Doug Lewis”, the “22 year Navy veteran” has been exposed as a Russian troll.

https://twitter.com/Ryan_Kinney11/status/929183048209436672

He botched his age, where he was born, how many Purple Hearts he has, whether a sibling died in Viet Nam or stood for the flag last week, among other things.

And occasionally he forgets to press “Translate your tweet from Russian into English” before he posts it.
