Much of this is corroborated by events.
No, I believe those were fired from Yemen and the ships fired at were in the Red Sea or the Gulf of Aden. If memory serves.
Does anything on FR come from anywhere besides 4chan or TruPundit anymore?
Absolutely!
We totally trust the NYT, WaPo, CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC and Fox news!
I understand your point, the MSM has deliberately failed to cover the scandals or even express curiosity about what is known. They are covering for Hillary.
However, there is so much of this crap posted and linked here on FR that we now have many FReepers who unwittingly have confused salacious clickbait stories based on internet rumors as truth. This is a dangerous trend for FR.
Fact - what we know to be generally accepted as credible is more than enough to charge them with crimes and outrage our fellow citizens. People do a disservice to their argument and their ability to persuade others of the corruption when they bring up things from unknown sources that seem outlandish. Sadly, for those less discerning or pragmatic about this entire fiasco there now seem to be many of our fellow conservatarians here on FR who believe all of this and the beat goes on. They post, link, and email these clickbait stories to others and the folks who write this stuff (standard practice - crazy headline with nothing of substance to back it up outside of a few nuggets of what is generally accepted to be true) are raking in the money at our expense.
Matt Drudge has become the most successful person at what he does (link the news) for a reason. He is not touching any of this and that says much. The best investigative reporter out there now is probably Atkinson and she is not touching any of this. People on our side who have the best sources within the NY law enforcement community (like Hannity) are not touching some of this stuff.
Why?
There is already MORE than enough to be outraged about without making up crazy stuff. This is not helping and if you step away from FR for a bit and talk with other people they might think you are crazy. If they researched this themselves they would likely walk away with a diminished opinion of your credibility. In fact, it might even make you less persuasive with the truth because you sprinkled in a dose of tabloid news. Anonymous postings on a web forum do not count as sourced news. Period.
If people want to be legitimate watch Rudy or Schweitzer lay out what should be a criminal case against the Clintons. We are harming ourselves if we use this crap to try and persuade people because the majority of it is clickbait fiction. The known facts should be more than enough in a sane world to convince them of corruption.
I thought the ridiculous claims against Trump by women who said absolutely nothing for decades were total bogus BS, yet some here on this forum now want to suggest Hillary is a pedophile with even less evidence than the highly questionable Trump accusers (at least we know their names) without a single shred of evidence beyond the distasteful association with Epstein? That is a bridge too far FRiends.
We already know her crimes - pay to play, destruction of public records to cover up her actions, lying to congress and the FBI, and failure to protect classified information.
I wish we would stop funding the clickbait sites. The best rule of thumb is to watch Drudge because he is the best in the business. If he does not link the site it is because he does not believe it to be credible. Watch Rudy and listen to what he says because we KNOW he has highly placed friends and sources within NYPD and the FBI. Who is more likely to know such things? The former mayor of New York and U.S. Attorney there or an anonymous poster on 4chan or reddit?
Two words:
Clinton Foundation.
you don’t know that. Podesta’s emails were not the whole of the communications of Hillary, Clinton foundation and all the other matters of her’s being looked into. Think a little bigger.
I just ran a google on E+N68Trh
6 results.
This is a completely unknown source.
So while there’s rebellion, we have no idea about this intel. True? Complete hoax?
No idea.

No idea.
As you suspect and as I suspect, the source is anonymous. As for trusting this person, I cannot and do not vouch for him/her without an identity attached to him/her. The posted narrative seems to be plausible, in my reading, although I have no background whatsoever, in law enforcement or in intelligence or politics. As I said, Caveat Emptor, and I posted this under FR category of Bloggers.
I have no idea who the person is....but I read something he/she said that struck a deep chord in me.
Apparently, this person does have info.
After all is said and done, we are all info-seekers.....
......we then process the info according to what we already know.

Why yes, yes, they do.
Well, they’re all things that make a person scream...
Struck a cord of hope in me too. Seems plausible.
But ... I’m frequently disappointed when I expect the best in others and often correct when I expect the worst.
Troll.
On one of O’Keefe’s videos Creamer said he had hired 15,000 internet activists... and then there were Cass Sunstein’s or Sustein’s stable of internet trolls.
Later
As am I. I can only hope, because I want to believe that there are still patriots embedded in these alphabet agencies who might stand up for the truth. But maybe my belief is misplaced. Maybe we Freepers are just like those Jap soldiers holding out for years on some remote S. Pacific island, not understanding that the war was lost long ago. Hope springs eternal, as the aphorism goes.
“Are these “ordinary times”?”
Well, let us know when you succeed at raiding the whitehut and arresting a sitting president. Don’t be a child plying make believe.
Agreed!
I do wonder if he can pardon himself...
