Written by Maggie Haberman, NY Times. Why even print this horseshit here?

What the hell kind of fun is an Echo Chamber?

President Trump was on form on Hannity. voice completely back to normal. a couple of slight coughs did nothing to spoil what was otherwise a very strong interview.

meanwhile, Maggie Haberman, how about writing about another Russiagate hoax story that has bitten the dust:

I know everyone is tired of hearing this, but the number of bombshell stories from the last four years that turned out later to be wrong or over-hyped is astounding.

Financial Times: ICO’s final report into Cambridge Analytica invites regulatory questions
A three-year inquiry into data mishandling by Cambridge Analytica by the UK’s Information Commissioner’s Office has come up with diddly-squat. So now what?
So the entire Cambridge Analytica controversy was basically fake?

Tweet: Antonio García Martínez
This is such obvious revisionist bullshit.
The NYT and the rest of the tech journo circle covered the hell out of Cambridge Analytica for YEARS after the election, lending credence to what I and other ad tech insiders decried as overblown, laughable conspiracy theories.

8 Oct: Financial Times: ICO’s final report into Cambridge Analytica invites regulatory questions
By Izabella Kaminska
After more than three years, Elizabeth Denham, the UK’s Information Commissioner, has closed her investigation into improper data handling by the SCL and Cambridge Analytica group.
At first glance her findings, which were released on Tuesday, dispel many of the accusations put forward by whistleblowers and digital rights campaigners over the course of 2018.

The most serious of these was that the digital marketing specialist had colluded with Russia to steer the results of the Brexit referendum and broken US campaign rules during the 2016 presidential election...

According to the final report, the Commissioner’s office is already ensuring that “any data, models and derivatives are safely destroyed” and that “several items obtained have been subsequently disowned and we are taking measures via our forensic technology provider to destroy these safely ourselves.”
That, FT Alphaville assumes, implies the underlying data that many continue to believe single-handedly “hacked” the 2016 Brexit and American elections, could soon be lost forever.

If that’s the case, it may shortly become even harder to disprove the uncomfortable proposition that Cambridge Analytica’s main data-related crime was overselling its own capabilities rather than actually hacking democracy with the help of the Russians.

Trump and the country could afford a few bad choices in personnel, but Sessions and then Barr might be two we couldn’t afford. They set the tone for the entire mess we are in right now. Literally at least half of Washington should be in prison right now and this country running like a Swiss watch. Instead, we have had no Attorney General or enforcement of law for 4 years and the mess you see is the result.

It will be interesting to find out what affiliates cut away?

IF Trump lashed out at his cabinet, it is because he is trying to literally save the Republic. And maybe it is time we all get a little visibly angry with them too?

Whenever you see the name Maggie Haberman, whether alone or co-authored, you know it’s a DNC/Clinton/Swamp designed hit piece. She’s their village idiot.

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan “the lockup queen” even as his own Justice Department was announcing the existence of an anti-government group’s plot to kidnap her.

Hmmm...interesting they didn't use 'right wing or militia' this time. It has been revealed the group is an 'anarchist to anitfa' type group.

I, for one, wouldn’t have seen it elsewhere. At least half of the problem with America’s electorate is that they only see NYT.-based news, with no counter-balance.

How innocuous Maggie makes his “political enemies” sound.

Maggie they were planning to take President Trump out of office.

Even in your Leftist/Marxist saturated brain doesn’t that mean something???

WTF is wrong with PDJT, anyhow? Before Barr was confirmed, we knew that he and Mueller were/are BFFs, as are their wives. When he appointed Barr, POTUS was aware of many lawyers who were 100% on board with his agenda, and that they’d be 100% loyal to him. But did he appoint any of THEM? Nooooo. Choose someone who has a history of being a Bushbot.

He can let Barr go TODAY, and appoint Grennell as Acting. Let heads roll next week, and issue some serious indictments.

“And maybe it is time we all get a little visibly angry with them too?”

Three years past time. And not just angry — ACTIVE.

“Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of our country.”

(Typed that line a hundred times in h.s. typing class in ‘72. I remember it always.)

These are not political rivals; they are traitorous enemies of the United States. And the traitorous enemies includes the NY Slimes.

“WTF is wrong with PDJT, anyhow? Before Barr was confirmed, we knew that he and Mueller were/are BFFs, as are their wives.”

If PDJT is truly a 3-D chess master, he has people watching Barr (and dumpster diving at DOJ, FBI, CIA, CDC...) and has now learned who is running cya for whom.

In Trump II (which must happen to save our republic), PDJT makes his queen-taking and checkmate moves.

I do hope hope hope!

And most all have been pubic school indoctrinated, and many then college indoctrinated.

Trump II had better get his sh!t together, and appear before November 3.

Like you, “I do hope hope hope!” And pray pray pray.

Yep, Maggie Habermann the DNC’S not so secret weapon. Habermann is Hillary’s former dirty ops handmaiden and continues her role as the DNCs direct pipeline to control the corrupt MSM.

He’s going to bait Nancy into attempting Impeachment 2.1 at the worst possible time.

No Baker and Haberman, it is Obama and Biden that used their cabinet to go after their political opponents. Guess you two are either too stupid or corrupt to understand that all Trump is saying is there is more than adequate evidence that Obama, Biden etc massively broke the law and should be prosecuted. But you two idiots see collusion where there wasn’t any (and proven to be so) but ignore it where it is blatantly obvious.

Perfectly predictable onslaught by the NYTimes.

The Times is the mouthpiece for the CIA. If you want to see what the CIA wants you to think, take a look at the Times headlines.

Calls to Indict Political Rivals

If it was good enough for Obama it’s good enough for Trump.
