You have probably seen the image below of the New York Times January 20 headline. It has gone viral on web and renders absurd the current denials by the Times and much of the rest of the mainstream media that there was no wiretapping of the Donald Trump campaign by the Obama administration. No, there won't be a document out there signed by former President Obama that says something like "I hereby authorize the wiretapping of the Trump campaign." There doesn't need to be. The headline and its January 19 article makes very clear that the previous administration did secretly monitor communications of the Trump campaign.

Unlike the digital flames of web publishing’s 1984ish memory holes, dead-tree publishing means never having to say, “I didn’t publish that”.
Seems just a tad hypocritical for the enemedia to be bashing President Trump for his wiretap remarks since they themselves claimed the same thing the day of his inauguration, though I suppose they COULD use the defense that they themselves were lying then.
(btw, i went to look at the 1/20/2017 NYT hard copy at my local library to make sure this wasn’t a fake. It isn’t.)

Don’t think they’ll be able to crab walk their way out of this deplorable bucket of excrement even if they had a ton of help. Everything they’re tried has backfired which is further proof the gates of hell can wail and gnash their teeth but they implode sooner or later. Winning never felt so good
I am absolutely dumbstruck, reading that Wikileaks summary.
Obama, and every one of his former underlings, needs to be imprisoned for this unprecedented malfeasance.
Most people are missing the narrative. No one is denying the Obama justice department bugged Trump tower. They are coming unhinged because Trump said Obama bugged him.
Sorry MSM. That is called “Nuance.”
Welcome to the new tone in Washington, lefties: Obama's Fault!
Hillary knew of FISA order and wiretap by her own admission during the campaign, Obama owes explanation

So NY Times is saying their January headline article in their own paper is Fake News? LMAO.
Party ownership of the print media
made it easy to manipulate public opinion,
and the film and radio carried the process further.

....... The Ministry of Truth, Winston's place of work, contained, it was said, three thousand rooms above ground level, and corresponding ramifications below. The Ministry of Truth concerned itself with Lies. Party ownership of the print media made it easy to manipulate public opinion, and the film and radio carried the process further. The primary job of the Ministry of Truth was to supply the citizens of Oceania with newspapers, films, textbooks, telescreen programmes, plays, novels - with every conceivable kind of information, instruction, or entertainment, from a statue to a slogan, from a lyric poem to a biological treatise, and from a child's spelling-book to a Newspeak dictionary. Winston worked in the RECORDS DEPARTMENT (a single branch of the Ministry of Truth) editing and writing for The Times. He dictated into a machine called a speakwrite. Winston would receive articles or news-items which for one reason or another it was thought necessary to alter, or, in Newspeak, rectify. If, for example, the Ministry of Plenty forecast a surplus, and in reality the result was grossly less, Winston's job was to change previous versions so the old version would agree with the new one. This process of continuous alteration was applied not only to newspapers, but to books, periodicals, pamphlets, posters, leaflets, films, sound-tracks, cartoons, photographs - to every kind of literature or documentation which might conceivably hold any political or ideological significance. When his day's work started, Winston pulled the speakwrite towards him, blew the dust from its mouthpiece, and put on his spectacles. He dialed 'back numbers' on the telescreen and called for the appropriate issues of The Times, which slid out of the pneumatic tube after only a few minutes' delay. The messages he had received referred to articles or news-items which for one reason or another it was thought necessary to rectify. In the walls of the cubicle there were three orifices. To the right of the speakwrite, a small pneumatic tube for written messages; to the left, a larger one for newspapers; and on the side wall, within easy reach of Winston's arm, a large oblong slit protected by a wire grating. This last was for the disposal of waste paper. Similar slits existed in thousands or tens of thousands throughout the building, not only in every room but at short intervals in every corridor. For some reason they were nicknamed memory holes. When one knew that any document was due for destruction, or even when one saw a scrap of waste paper lying about, it was an automatic action to lift the flap of the nearest memory hole and drop it in, whereupon it would be whirled away on a current of warm air to the enormous furnaces which were hidden somewhere in the recesses of the building. As soon as Winston had dealt with each of the messages, he clipped his speakwritten corrections to the appropriate copy of The Times and pushed them into the pneumatic tube. Then, with a movement which was as nearly as possible unconscious, he crumpled up the original message and any notes that he himself had made, and dropped them into the memory hole to be devoured by the flames. What happened in the unseen labyrinth to which the tubes led, he did not know in detail, but he did know in general terms. As soon as all the corrections which happened to be necessary in any particular number of The Times had been assembled and collated, that number would be reprinted, the original copy destroyed, and the corrected copy placed on the files in its stead. In the cubicle next to him the little woman with sandy hair toiled day in day out, simply at tracking down and deleting from the Press the names of people who had been vaporized and were therefore considered never to have existed. And this hall, with its fifty workers or thereabouts, was only one-sub-section, a single cell, as it were, in the huge complexity of the Records Department. Beyond, above, below, were other swarms of workers engaged in an unimaginable multitude of jobs. There were huge printing-shops and their sub editors, their typography experts, and their elaborately equipped studios for the faking of photographs. There was the tele-programmes section with its engineers, its producers and its teams of actors specially chosen for their skill in imitating voices; clerks whose job was simply to draw up lists of books and periodicals which were due for recall; vast repositories where the corrected documents were stored; and the hidden furnaces where the original copies were destroyed. And somewhere or other, quite anonymous, there were the directing brains who co-ordinated the whole effort and laid down the lines of policy which made it necessary that this fragment of the past should be preserved, that one falsified, and the other rubbed out of existence. |
“The telescreen recieved and transmitted simultaneously. Any sound Winston made, above the level of a very low whisper, would be picked up by it;
moreover, so long as he remained within the field of vision which the metal plaque commanded, he could be seen as well as heard.
There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment.
How often, or on what system, the Thought Police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork.
It was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. But at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever the wanted to.
You had to live- did live, from habit that became instinct- in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized.

Sadly true.
for some reason, your post made me want to have a couple of shots of cheap gin tonight.
This is so far beyond that it is amazing.It must be stopped.There is NO justification.The good news is that our President is PISSED . When he strikes , it will be shock and awe. The communists need to be destroyed at the ROOTS!!
bkmk
The biggest crime I see, is that these idiots were likely taping The President, not just the candidate. It’s doubtful that they suddenly stopped taping after the inauguration.
Any questions?
President Trump and his administration (Bannon et al.) are responsible for either addressing this Tyranny—and bringing America back from the brink of totalitarianism—or ignoring it and ensuring the defeat of this Revolution.
I will judge President Trump's administration on his treatment of this critical issue, among others...
