Obama Official Who Hinted at Intel Leaks Now Says She’s Victim of ‘Fake News’
Newsbusters ^ | March 30, 2017 | Kyle Drennen

Posted on 03/30/2017 3:31:20 PM PDT by kevcol

Farkas, President Obama’s former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense and now an NBC News National Security Analyst, whined to anchor Kate Snow: “And on the dark campaign of fake news, you know, that's still ongoing. We see even someone like myself get swept up in all of this. You know, when people like me are speaking on behalf of process, people spin to it suit their needs. And I think it may be that the Russians are behind even such fake news today.”

She is a victim of the MSM, specifically the LW press. Now she’s blaming the Russians also? Spectacular. These people don’t know when to quit

She speaks something like five languages, but she expects us to believe the Russians have faked the things she said in plain English to a TV audience? LMAO.

Again, I point out, this individual was former DEPUTY ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF DEFENSE. This is the individual that Obama, in all his majesty, looked down and chose to protect this country from all enemies, foreign and domestic.

Not this time. I’m sure every criminal lawyer who is watching these clips is screaming at the TV, begging her to shut up.

Farkas is typical of the Obama Administrative operative - totally unserious and unscrupulous political animals who contemptuous of national security concerns.

Leaking and casual conversation about secret information has become so second nature to her after 8 years she does it of habit.

How long will it be until public school children blame the RUSSIANS for stealing their homework?

-- Not this time. I'm sure every criminal lawyer who is watching these clips is screaming at the TV, begging her to shut up. --

We'll see. Looking at personal legal jeopardy, she can claim she was just being braggadocios and shooting off her mouth - that is, she was lying, making up fiction for the thrill of it all. There was (probably still is) wholesale felony leaking going on, making criminal prosecutions difficult.

My point about losing the issue in a sea of garbage was meant to apply to the press handling of it. NYT, WaPo, CNN, and the rest will move on to "attacks on her defense" rather than examine the meaning and significance of what she said in the first place.

[[Only in the mind of a retarded Obama administration official is it “fake news” when media outlets PLAY A CLIP OF YOUR OWN ‘EFFING INTERVIEW.]]

Pure liberal playbook- they get to make up whatever crap they like and the msm protect them 100% of the way- When they get caught redhanded making false claims- they and the MSM get to say over and ove3r and over again, until peopel beleive them “You nasty republicans intentionally misinterpreted what I really meant’

But when a republican tries to do the same play- the msm pile on and turn it into a ‘cover-up,’ on the magnitude of whitewater

Republicans will never ever be on a level playing field with democrats- Demcorats get to say whatever the hell they wish- and if they get called to hte carpet for it- they ecuse it by claiming they were simply misunderstood

Today in her subsequent confession, she stated that she meant she was Working with her Colleagues on the Hill, Senators...

She worked at the Russian Desk in the Pentagon, Which Senators were her Colleagues??

I would go back and check her whole interview to see if there is any chance she couched it in speculation, BUT her remarks were extensive.

And second, anyone who watches MSNBC or CNN for even 5 minutes knows that it is total left wing democrat lying and rationalization every minute, so of course she just BS’d her way through getting caught and they ate it up.

It’s like watching a UFO or Sasquatch channel, everything is twisted and made up for their own purposes.

Remember before Hilary had to admit she passed out on 9/11, these networks sounded like QVC selling you that Hilary wore dark clothing that day and everyone knows that can make you pass out in the heat, and they were interviewing dems from the event going on about how they almost passed out. (Of course it wasn’t hot and no one else passed out but they were all saying it was sweltering out there).

Well, she's really in trouble now, because she got mentioned by name in a letter from the White House inviting ranking members of Congress to view the smoking gun intelligence that proves the Obamites were spying on Trump. Put some salve on it, sweet cakes.
