The famous phrase, "Give me chastity and give me constancy, but do not give it yet." is famously attributed to St. Augustine. He was well-known for his promiscuity and philandering but still, somehow, ended up a saint. Today, our mainstream media is circulating infectious, metastatic hearsay surrounding President-Elect Trump, discussing it as the top story, all the while admitting
we don't even know if it's true. In the process, they're destroying themselves as they regurgitate virtually anything regardless of it's veracity in order to push a line into peoples' mind and the people are no longer standing for it.
This is the latest volley of fake news from our illustrious establishment after
"Russia hacked the elections" and
"Russia hacked a Vermont electrical grid" were thoroughly disproven. In fact, one could argue the story's existence shows how
the deep state is just peddling lie after lie in order to discredit the President-Elect and create a maelstrom of controversy. The story started with a Buzzfeed article titled:
These Reports Allege Trump Has Deep Ties To Russia. Within hours Twitter was trending #GoldenShowers, #PEEOTUS and even R. Kelly's name filtered up on search results. Clearly, for Donald Trump's critics, the truth really doesn't matter.
Scrolling through the documents themselves, one has the sense that they were draw up on Microsoft Word by someone with a little too much free time. Buzzfeed itself opined that the details of the documents it was presenting were 'unverified, and the report contains errors.' However when you allow your journalistic credibility to hinge on sophomoric fan fiction involving tinkle it's best to maintain the illusion you care about accuracy with a caveat.
