How many times can one newspaper screw up a story?
Predictably, the New York Times pooh-poohed the release of the classified annex to the Durham report. Charlie Savage wrote:
Kash Patel, the F.B.I. director, and other Trump allies have declared that a newly declassified report on the Russia investigation provides “evidence that the Clinton campaign plotted to frame President Trump and fabricate the Russia collusion hoax.” The reality is almost precisely the opposite… The report shows that a purported email that Trump supporters have long tried to portray as a smoking gun is instead most likely a fake.

Moe: “Listen chowderhead every time you think you weaken the nation!’’
That’s why its name should actually be The New York Slimes
Yep. NYT and WaPo go down with coconspirators Obama, Hillary, Brennan, Clapper, Biden and Rice. They were all in on the attempt to drive Trump from office with lies.
Peg: “Whatcha thinkin’ Al?”
Al Bundy: “If I wanted you to know what I was thinking, Peg, I’d be talking.”
Old Grey Whore joke

LOL!
NY Times is a waste of eyesight.
Wasn’t it 18 minutes into President Trump’s first term that the WaPo announced “impeachment is on the table”?
That really portends fair and honest coverage.
What?
The N.Y. Times is a biased rag?
Who knew.
