What is conflict of interest? What is true collusion?

[pep]

Read slowly, there’s a lot to take into consideration!
 
* YES, THE GOVERNOR OF MICHIGAN USED TO WORK FOR GEORGE SOROS.
 
* YES, CALIF GOV. GAVIN NEWSOM IS NANCY PELOSI'S NEPHEW.
 
* YES, ADAM SCHIFF'S SISTER IS MARRIED TO ONE OF GEORGE SOROS’ SONS.
 
* YES, JOHN KERRY'S DAUGHTER IS MARRIED TO A MULLAH'S SON IN IRAN.
 
* YES, HILLARY'S DAUGHTER CHELSEA IS MARRIED TO GEORGE SOROS' NEPHEW.
 
* YES, ABC NEWS EXECUTIVE PRODUCER IAN CAMERON IS MARRIED TO SUSAN RICE, OBAMA'S FORMER NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER.
 
* YES, CBS PRESIDENT DAVID RHODES IS THE BROTHER OF BEN RHODES, OBAMA'S DEPUTY NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER FOR STRATEGIC COMMUNICATIONS.

* YES, ABC PRESIDENT BEN SHERWOOD IS THE BROTHER OF ELIZABETH SHERWOOD, OBAMA'S FORMER SPECIAL ADVISER.
 
* YES, CNN VP VIRGINIA MOSELEY IS MARRIED TO TOM NIDES, FORMER HILLARY CLINTON'S DEPUTY SECRETARY.
 
THIS IS WHAT YOU CALL A "STACKED DECK".  IF YOU HAD A HUNCH THE NEWS MEDIA WAS SOMEWHAT RIGGED AND YOU COULDN'T PUT YOUR FINGER ON IT, THIS MIGHT HELP YOU SOLVE THE PUZZLE.
 
Now you know why no one is investigated.  They all have their hands in the cookie jar! You might remember James Comey who investigated the Clinton email scandal and the Clinton Foundation and made the final decision to not recommend prosecution by the DOJ.
 
It turns out that the Clinton Foundation was audited by the law firm DLA Piper.  One of the executives there was in charge of the Clinton Foundation audit.
 
Who was it?  Peter Comey, James Comey’s brother.  Peter Comey held an executive position with the Washington law firm that did the audit of the Clinton foundation in 2015.  Peter Comey was officially DLA Piper "Senior Director of Real Estate Operations for the Americas", in 2015 when the Clinton Foundation scandals first broke and Hillary was preparing her Presidential campaign.  Not only was DLA Piper, the firm where Comey’s brother worked involved in the audit of the Clinton Foundation, but according to the foundation’s donor records, DLA Piper has given between $50 - 100k to the Foundation.  It gets even cozier.  DLA Piper executive Douglas Emhoff is taking an extended leave of absence from the firm.  Who is Douglas Emhoff?  He is the husband of KAMALA HARRIS!  Just a coincidence?  Amazing if it is.  You can't make this stuff up!  Another example of the DC swamp.
 
And it only gets worse.  This "Family Tree" will make your head spin.  THE SWAMP IS DEEP!!
 
Dominion (voting machine provider) serves 40% of the US market.  It is in 30 states - - The state of Texas rejected the machines.

- An aide to Nancy Pelosi, Nadeam Elshami, was hired by Dominion Voting Systems.
 
And it goes on & ON!!

- Dominion Voting is listed as a $25,000 -$50,000 donor to the Clinton Foundation in 2014 by The Washington Post.
 
- Georgia Governor Kemp used Dominion Voting after Texas and Florida rejected them.
 
- Dominion has a lobbyist named Jared Thomas.
 
- Jared Thomas was Governor Brian Kemp’s chief of staff and press secretary from 2012 to 2015.
 
- You must remember the Feinstein-Kavanaugh-Soros connections to understand this next information.
 
- Debra Katz (Christine Ford's lawyer) worked for George-Soros at the Open Society Foundation.
 
- Debra Katz (Christine Ford's lawyer) also worked at Project on Government Oversight (POGO).
 
- POGO is funded by Soros’s Open Society Foundation.
 
- POGO is the co-signer of the letter Diane Feinstein presented against Kavanaugh's nomination.
 
- Kamala Harris did not prosecute OneWest Bank for their fraud when she had the authority - Soros owned OneWest Bank.
 
- Now you know why a woman who   placed 7th in her State when running for President is now VP.

Couple of quick fact checks showed 2 of the above are false and I only checked 2

This is why I believe nothing that comes from either far wing of either side of the debate.  Both have an agenda and neither is above twisting facts to  make a point.

Do I believe there is collusion on the left to keep themselves in power and out of trouble?  Absolutely, but it occurs on the right also.  The left is better at it.

I am sick of the us vs. them, it solves nothing and plays into the hands of those provoking it.  The media makes a lot of money keeping people stirred up and it does the people who get wrapped up in it no good mentally. 

I suggest folks disengage from social media, TV news and anywhere else the us vs them crap is promoted. 

THEN, if you want to make a difference and not just rant and rave, go to work on the candidate of your chosing campaign.  Pick someone who will work to make a difference.

[oldnslo]

Pep, in the interest of keeping facts, facts...

Care to edit your post for items that you have fact-checked yourself? More specifically, if some are false, please remove those items.

[goodfellow]

I agree with Phil on the idea that many on both sides of the aisle (Republican and Democrat) can't be trusted when it comes to representing the interests of the middle class. They are (for the most part) compromised by special interest money, and will do anything to stay in power, and to enrich themselves and their families.

Case in point is that most all legislation proposed in congress these days is written by special interests (aka "K" street lobbyists). Congressmen and women have abdicated that constitutional task to special interests outside of government. Hence, they often vote on bills that they've never read. The role of congress is to propose and approve laws, yet they have (for the most part) removed themselves from that fundamental task. -- FOLLOW THE MONEY!

[pep]

You & I are most likely the same age, you don't see: conflict of interest, true collusion. So many cases falling on its ass, never going anywhere ? How can we be so wrong ?

 2 fact checks, made your mind up this is just more bullshit?  I would say that's glossing over what is right in front of our faces .

This information was not from social media, news or right wing. 

Here is what you must change and deal with as fact "I am sick of the us vs. them" Only problem is "it's them vs. you" .

One problem with the attitude, can't we all just get along.  They are letting the air out of your balloon. You capitulate bowing to their agendas.

Happily going down the road thinking you are effective. Voting thinking what has is happening, not going to happen cause you voted.


Here is another one, "going forward", never fking mind roam in burning, let's all think happy thoughts.


Not that it's anyones business I did this > "THEN, if you want to make a difference and not just rant and rave, go to work on the candidate of your chosing campaign.  Pick someone who will work to make a difference."

$$$$$ wise and other wise.......... how about you?

What happen in 2021 was a farce, and there are plenty of "facts" to back that up.


 How about you do that oldnslow . 

If you think you got something to offer up more than hot_air ?

You can take these things whatever way you like, I suppose there are mistakes, even you make those.

The author is a member of my former squadron, research is his name and research is his game.

Not ranting, and not here to change your mind.

But some do need a window in their stomachs. Cause their heads are so far up their ass, they can't see where they are going.

[fatfillup]

Pep, I agreed there is collusion, its obvious even from a distance.  But nothing changes, at least not much.
I don't necessarily have the answer, but what we are doing now is not working and am so tired of folks falling for the clickbait and intensifying the anger.
So I try not to fall for it and as true as your posting may be, and I am sure there is substance there, it serves no end.

I have a young friend, a veteran, who got so consumed with being scared of what the liberals would do, it was seriously affecting his mental health and possibly his career.  I encouraged him to disengage from news and social media and to the degree he has been able to do it, he has had improvement.

I know how worked up I would get when listening to talk radio.  It isn't healthy, at least for me and I bet lots of other folks as well.

I don't like where this country is headed, but after years of screaming and shouting, its still the same. 

Your work and $'s for a candidate are exactly what is needed on a nationwide scale.  Folks need to be won over to change, not  brow beat, and that has to be done at the local level.

[slip knot]

The collusion is there for everyone to see but its not limited to right or left. They BOTH are screwing us over big time. and they both ride this gravy train while pointing their finger across the aisle screaming "look at them" Did you notice how both sides vilified Trump every chance they got BOTH Democrats and Republicans. He was upsetting their scam.

I agree with Phil. You got to disengage from social media, network news and just look at each issue with an open mind. I've not watched two hours of TV this year. Not because I dont care about the issues, I dont care about the propaganda the media puts out. 

[goodfellow]

.......I've not watched two hours of TV this year. Not because I dont care about the issues, I dont care about the propaganda the media puts out. 

I also have given up on any TV news. With very few exceptions, it's all scripted propaganda. Better to do your own research.

I quit watching Fox News Nov 3 2020 and Newsmax just recently after they went woke and imposed a vaccine mandate. If I come across news online with wild claims I will research it myself. I only use social media such as FB and Twatter for intelligence purposes and never post. I gave up on Drudge a long time ago and my go to site is CitizenFreePress. There are various other sites that are certain subjects like BearingArms and aviation.

[bonneyman]

Virtually all news and communications outlets are hopelessly corrupt and propaganda. I mainly watch the evening news just for the weather forecasts - even the weather is politicized now.

Try Brighteon.com. The free speech alternative to Youtube. The founder permits anybody but child pornos and the like. He even has foreign news and videos, even atheists and what I would call wackos. Free speech is free speech. I like that there's politics, spirituality, food, prepping, finance, all sorts of channels. Never boring. And you get the free speech alternative news.

I don't agree with everything he says or all of his guest interviews, but he doesn't ban people because he doesn't agree with them. Like Youtube, Twitter, and Facebook does. And he's built and adding to his own servers, upline connections, etc. just so he can't be cut off. I don't understand all the techno-babble but he's trying to be independent.

This, turned it off many years ago. They will say anything for ratings. Rush, Glen Beck etc suck the life right out of you

I didn't listen to Rush in the early years, mostly it's been in the last ten.  I don't recall him saying anything over the top.  He said things a lot of people didn't want to admit, that's for sure.  Used to listen to Neal Boortz, a local guy.  One thing he always said really stuck with me as great advice...don't believe anything you hear unless it makes sense with what you already know to be true.

I try to be well rounded and watch/listen to the network propaganda as well.  It's interesting for what they say, as well as what they fail to report on.  I can remember how they either didn't report on or downplayed as much as possible, Hillary's negligence re: Benghazi, but they'd amp up Harry Reid's claim that Romney didn't pay his taxes.  Stupid shit like that.  Of course, even going back to 2008 when it was clear Obama would be the nominee and how innately qualified he was despite never having run anything in his life, and how all his buddies in the media threw McCain under the bus.  Poor McVain was naive enough to think he'd get at least objective coverage after all his years kissing their asses and being the maverick!

Trump's presidency was the turning point for a lot of Americans.  Even most Trump supporters will acknowledge what a loudmouth boor Trump can be and some of his other faults, but the mainstream coverage of him was so absolutely ridiculous and libelous for four years it's no secret why most Americans don't trust the mainstream media at all.
