"It worked, didn't it?"

You might remember Harry Reid. He was a Senator from Nevada, serving from 1987 to 2017. He passed last December and currently resides in hell. Reid was a truly evil person, a liar utterly absent a soul or  a conscience. In an effort to cripple the Presidential campaign of Mitt Romney in 2012, Harry made the assertion that Romney hadn't paid his taxes in 10 years in a HuffPo interview.

"He didn't pay taxes for 10 years!" Reid said. "Now, do I know that that's true? Well, I'm not certain, but obviously he can't release those tax returns. How would it look?"

Then he took to the Senate floor and said the same thing

"As we know, he has refused to release his tax returns. If a person coming before this body wanted to be a Cabinet officer, he couldn't be if he had the same refusal Mitt Romney does about tax returns," Reid said. "So the word is out that he has not paid any taxes for 10 years. Let him prove he has paid taxes, because he has not."

Later, when asked if he had any regrets about lying, he said

"It worked, didn't it?" 

and "Romney didn't win, did he?"

Yes, it worked. Taking a cue from that technique, 50 former members of the "intelligence" community signed a letter asserting that the Hunter Biden laptop story was "Russian disinformation."

More than 50 former intelligence officials said emails alleged to have been found on a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden show signs of a Russian disinformation operation.

Several of the signers have endorsed Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, according to Politico, which first reported the letter. The letter states that its signers do not have new information about the emails and their authenticity.

Not only did they endorse Biden, many were frequently appearing on MSNBC and CNN as "experts" and all bashed Trump.  Consequently, Twitter, Facebook and Google took to censoring all content having to do with Hunter Biden's laptop and the contents within. Twitter suspended the NY Post from its platform. It suspended anyone who tried to share content from the NY Post. The media gleefully seized upon it.

The NY Post ran a great story yesterday

Now that Joe Biden’s president, the Times finally admits: Hunter’s laptop is real

Forgive the profanity, but you have got to be s–tting us.

First, the New York Times decides more than a year later that Hunter Biden’s business woes are worthy of a story. Then, deep in the piece, in passing, it notes that Hunter’s laptop is legitimate.

“People familiar with the investigation said prosecutors had examined emails between Mr. Biden, Mr. Archer and others about Burisma and other foreign business activity,” the Times writes. “Those emails were obtained by The New York Times from a cache of files that appears to have come from a laptop abandoned by Mr. Biden in a Delaware repair shop. The email and others in the cache were authenticated by people familiar with them and with the investigation.”

Authenticated!!! You don’t say. You mean, when a newspaper actually does reporting on a topic and doesn’t just try to whitewash coverage for Joe Biden, it discovers it’s actually true?

Do read the whole thing.

The Times HAD to make the admission because they wanted to print a "scoop."

SCOOP: HUNTER BIDEN paid off a significant tax liability (he told an associate that it was $1M+ & that he took out a loan to pay it). But a federal grand jury is continuing to gather evidence in a broad probe of Hunter's international business dealings.

Out of nowhere, Joe Biden suddenly says

 “I bet everybody knows somebody…that in an intimate relationship, what happened was the guy takes a revealing picture of his naked friend, or whatever, in a compromising position and then blackmails.”

He was, of course, talking about Hunter Biden. The younger Biden is expecting an indictment for tax fraud. He apparently took out a $1 million loan to pay off some tax liabilities in order to lessen the penalties. One would think he might have saved up some of that Burisma money, the $30 million the Biden family got from China or the $3 million he got from the wife of Moscow's mayor.

Because of the censorship, about 50% of Biden supporters were ignorant of the laptop and the contents. Sixteen percent of Biden voters indicated that they would have voted differently had they known.

Too wordy.

Just say: “Reid was a democrat.”

“It didn’t work, did it?”

I guess not. Apparently the reduced font size only works in the actual replies, not the tag lines.

I tried to help, sorry.....

Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.
