Microsoft: We 'stopped' cyber attack by Russian hackers! (P.S. here's our new product)
Microsoft PR campaign pretending to be a Russian cyber attack. What a concept! :roll2:

Report: Clinton's private email hacked by China
Look back at the first few posts made to this thread in 2016. Everyone already knew that it wasn't Russia way back then!

Steyn: Google has more control over lives than Russia
The amount of influence that Russia has over public opinion in the USA is negligible. In fact, if we were to make a list of the entities which exert the most influence on American public opinion it's doubtful that Russia would rank in the top forty. Google, on the other hand, would be number one. They certainly had a lot to do with hyping the Russian Hackers narrative, didn't they? Turns out that little piece of fake news was a distraction from what's really going on!

Why Trump dumping Sessions is a major Russia move
Although CNN tries to spin this as a bad thing, it seems like it's all good to me. The Russia investigation has been a witch hunt and a waste of time and money from the beginning. So, anything that brings it to an end is a good thing.

If click-bait headlines were an art, NYT’s op-ed would be a masterpiece
The corporate media has a tendency to attribute it's own methods and motives to others. Obvious projection and the ironic thing is that they don't realize how obvious.

Corsi to Tucker: Mueller wanted me to lie
Prosecutorial misconduct without a doubt. Mueller is the one who belongs in prison for life. This whole collusion narrative was obviously a lie from the beginning, but Mueller and company are pushing it for more than it's worth. The problem for Mueller though is that he may be sticking his neck out a little too far and may wind up being the one in trouble.

Tucker: What crime has Trump committed?
A stupid investigation which should never have been initiated in the first place and which has been a massive waste of money just keeps getting stupider and stupider and stupider, ad infinitum.

The Democrats are grasping at straws! These newest charges against Trump are incredibly flimsy. Only the choir takes this stuff seriously and only a kangaroo court could possibly find Trump guilty of anything. We strayed a long ways from the original charges. The sauce keeps getting weaker and weaker and the Democrats keep getting more and more desperate. Pathetic. Very pathetic!

Russian "Spy" Pleads Guilty To Trumped Up Charges
It's a stretch to call her a spy. She was an unregistered foreign agent, which doesn't mean much, but it's enough to charge someone with a crime, albeit a silly made up kind of fake crime. Almost every major nation on the planet has unregistered foreign agents working the the USA. No one cares for the most part.

$4,700 worth of ‘meddling’: Google questioned over ‘Russian interference’
There's no there there, but they double-down just the same. It would make more sense to just admit that they were wrong to begin with, but instead they try to make something out of nothing.
