Maher: Media Engaged in ‘Conspiracy’ Against Trump on Hunter Biden Story
Breitbart ^ | 08/27/2022 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 08/27/2022 7:30:11 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher said there was “a conspiracy to get rid of” former President Donald Trump by the media, who buried the Hunter Biden story “because they were like, we can’t risk having the election thrown to Trump, we’ll tell them after the election.”

Maher said, “[M]y friend Sam Harris was on a podcast…they were talking about Hunter Biden’s laptop, which was a story and now all the mainstream press has finally admitted it was a real story, it was a real laptop — now look, let’s not pussyfoot around this, he was selling the influence of his father, Joe Biden. I mean, most political sons do. … Hunter Biden’s laptop was buried by the press, even the head of Twitter, Jack Dorsey, said that was a mistake. They buried the story because they remembered what happened with James Comey and the letter eleven days before the 2016 election. … Sam Harris says it was appropriate for Twitter and the heads of big tech and the heads of journalistic organizations to feel that they were in the presence of something that is a once-in-a-lifetime moral emergency, meaning Trump. So, he’s saying it’s okay to have a conspiracy to get rid of somebody as bad as Trump.”

Maher is talking a lot lately. I still don't trust him.

Along with their buddies in the FBI.

He’s so smart it only took him years and years to figure it out

I sort of see Maher as an honest leftist.

You’re right though, not sure I trust him

All the media is trying desperately to obscure a fact becoming increasingly obvious.

The DNC And a good chunk of the legislative branch, the executive branch and some of the federal judiciary are owned by China. Treason has a very limited sentencing leeway. They are “highly motivated” as they are in a vise- between MAGA and China.

When you’ve deluded yourself into believing that Orange Man = Hitler, then obviously anything goes and the ends justify any means.

I don’t trust him, but I wonder what the lefties think of him now, spouting truth every now and again.

The Propaganda Media outlets gave Jao Bai-din illegal political contributions-in-kind and need to be charged for every penny of it. Executives need to be charged personally as well.

Why did the Media feel so compelled to get rid of President Trump?

Simple. Most of the Media is in bed with the Deep State and the Democrats.

Their power consists of controlling the information flow;

controlling the Narrative;

controlling the definition of "what is a scandal";

controlling the definition of who is acceptable and who is not as a candidate.

Trump challenged all of that and showed their power could be overcome.

He challenged their power over the Country.

He is a threat to restore some power back to the people.

That is what they fear and hate.

Now that “National Security” (e.g., the FBI), has been politicized, the Dems are all for it.

My take is that Maher is throwing out just enough truth bombs to be seen as an honest broker and get viewers from both sides of the aisle.

Smart for him in a way. Just about every other entertainer how thrown in with the Left lock, stock and barrel — and lost half their potential audience.

Contemporary Leftists don’t want to see the obvious. Nazi and nazi sympathizers self-righteously believed they were “saving” their country by conspiring to take power, and they kept believing it until they succeeded. Sam Harris and his ilk orefer international to national socialism, but are no better than the Nazis.

Perhaps even they can see the ‘handwriting on the wall’

The things they’ve gotten away with against PDJT are just a test run. They’re going to do them against every Republican Presidential candidate from now on.

The strategy will then diffuse downward from Presidential and Senatorial races to House races, and then to local races. This is already happening.

He is “positioning” himself. The fit is about to hit the sham. He sees the writing on the wall and knows accountability is coming and he wants to appear to be politically neutral. Trying to stay one step ahead and save his skin.

Yeah, it's difficult to trust Maher. But...until he sets someone up - Trump, especially - by petitioning for an interview and then ambushing them, I'm willing to concede he may be evolving from blind leftist and moving toward the conservative point of view.

But he still has a long way to move, for sure.

These guys have seen what people like Joe Rogan have done, its very enlightening in a way. Appeal to a bigger audience will benefit us all. Musk getting Twitter and making that a more honest platform will also be YUGE.

If you thought trump was going to dismantle the WEF and deep state if he won the 2020 election. Just wait until he wins in 2024 when he has placed many like minded people in congress!

the left stealing the election may be the best thing that happened for us.
