Fear and Trembling in the Deep State
American Thinker ^ | 25 Aug, 2024 | Clarice Feldman

Posted on 08/25/2024 4:37:08 AM PDT by MtnClimber

On Friday, we faced yet another black swan event. We’ve had an attempted Trump assassination, the surprise coup against President Biden, and now Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s, defection and joining up with Donald Trump. Before getting into this and a discussion of the DNC convention in Chicago, I want to expose the partisan perfidy of NPR’s Judy Woodruff and the ease with which she and the press are manipulated by the deep state.

Press Patsies

During the convention, Judy Woodruff reported (using the most authoritative voice and concerned visage she could muster) that Donald Trump had a telephone conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during which he told him to reject the Biden ceasefire deal because accepting it would help Biden’s reelection. Both Netanyahu and Trump denied the claim upon which Trump was instantly being charged by the usual shills with a violation of the Logan Act. When pressed to substantiate her charge, Woodruff “clarified” her remarks and said she’d relied on accounts in Axios and Reuters and had done no independent verification. In fact, neither publication reported what she had said was the content of the conversation. More damaging to the credibility of her “clarification,” days before her assertion both accounts had reported the men denied having any phone conversation regarding the proposal. (I think it likely they got the same tip Woodruff did, but they fact checked it, discounted there had been any conversation, and then the tipster juiced it up some more and whispered it to Woodruff for a second shot at it.) Did she misread the articles? I think it obvious she repeated something someone in the administration told her, someone whose identity she dares not reveal for fear of losing valuable access. The claim was seen by many.

Election interference from NPR again. I can’t wait until Trump defunds this communist propaganda outlet.

“I can’t wait until Trump defunds this communist propaganda outlet (NPR).”

IIRC, this was supposed to happen when he was POTUS, but never did. But in the whole scheme of things, he had bigger fish to fry.

Who got the best part of the Deal?

Probably Trump———Bobby joining up was a knockout blow to the opposition.

But......Bobby has yet to make his moves on Dems.

Nancy explains the wrap up smear
https://www.c-span.org/video/?c4785397/user-clip-pelosi-explains-the-wrap-smear.

1. Demonize the subject of the smear. (Saul Alinsky tactics)
2. Contact the media with the smear but not attributed to yourself.
3. The media runs with the smear and then you quote the media as the source when it was yourself from the beginning.
