This week, the New York Times published a story that essentially confirms a report from the New York Post before the 2020 election. Now that the election is safely behind them, the story can be told: People familiar with the investigation said prosecutors had examined emails between Mr. Biden, Mr. Archer and others about Burisma and other foreign business activity. Those emails were obtained by The New York Times from a cache of files that appears to have come from a laptop abandoned by Mr. Biden in a Delaware repair shop. The email and others in the cache were authenticated by people familiar with them and with the investigation. However, at the time the story was flagged as “disinformation” by so-called fact-checkers, and the Post’s punishment was to have their Twitter account locked and Facebook limited distribution of the story.
Glenn Greenwald has some issues with how this has all played out: And we can’t forget the dozens of former intelligence community officials who signed off on a letter saying the story was likely Russian disinformation: Naturally the sound of crickets from the media is deafening, because “journalism” or something: If journalists do have anything to say, it’s to provide “context,” which is almost always used by fact-checkers as a way to make the false true, or the true false: The media knew they had a job to do in 2020, and honest reporting was not the task at hand.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
