Cutting the shit out is exactly what he never does, no matter what. He's getting something he really wants from doing this. Maybe it's a fantasy reward feeling that he's a brave soldier in the war on liberalism. Or else it's money.

...who rabidly defends Putin (just as his Trumpenfuhrer does) while Putin actively wages a war on liberal democracy around the world. Quite the patriot he is.

I've asked this before and you whiffed on it, so I'll ask it again:

Please point me to a single post where I've defended Putin.

Happy to. And as I suspected, you can't answer the question.

The 'kids in Macedonia' report from Buzzfeed. Must-read if you missed it when it came out. A part of how the fake news got all-over Facebook.

I saw a lengthy feature on this town and these people wherein they interviewed several of the hackers. Meanwhile, Whell parrots Rush Limbaugh who says the biggest purveyors of "fake news" are the WashPost and NYTimes.

Maybe I should start a thread on Russia's state-sponsored athletic doping just to watch Whell deny it.

Faithless Elector Fake News

The widely circulated and commented upon "faithless elector" op-ed from the NY Times is turning out to be more fake news. The NY Times no doubt rushed this piece into their op-ed pages without slowing down to ask a few basic questions. It was then picked up as a news piece and repeated elsewhere.

Turns out the "faithless elector" is a likely a fraud.

You can't make this stuff up...unless you're a lefty.

Hey Finn - don't look now, but looks like John Kerry isn't point the finger at Putin for the hacks. By your standards, he's a tratior!!!

Secretary of State John Kerry wouldn't accuse Russian president Vladimir Putin of masterminding hacks on Democrats to throw the U.S. presidential election today.

He cast doubt on a report claiming that Putin personally ordered cyber attacks on Democratic operatives Thursday afternoon, using air quotes as he talked about the anonymous 'intelligence officials' behind the leaking.

'Look, I am not going to start making comments at this point. I haven’t commented on this publicly because of the job I do,' Kerry said. 'I’m not going to comment on anonymous reports from intelligence officials that are not identified that have quotes around the concept of intelligence officials.'

I don't agree with Kerry about much of anything, but he's got this one right.
