WHAT LOSERS THINK IS A “SCANDAL.”
I read this scurrilous example of yellow journalism so you don't have to.
KEY POINT:
Buried deep in this insane hit piece is the fact that Kash Patel pays for these customized bottles of bourbon himself.
So the FBI Director pays for some high quality bourbon and has the… https://t.co/2SqzIva9Kj

ONCE BURNED, TWICE SHY:
I don’t think this hantavirus thing is anything to worry about. The pandemic risk is extremely low. But the problem is that our “public health authorities” permanently destroyed their credibility with covid, so if there ever is an apocalyptic pandemic nobody will believe them.

IF AMERICA IS A CREEDAL NATION, THEN CAN WE DENATURALIZE AND DEPORT PEOPLE WHO COME HERE AND DON’T SUBSCRIBE TO THE CREED?

CRUSH THEM: It’s Going to Be a Long, Very Hot Summer in Blue Cities. “Expect more riots. More political assassination attempts (hopefully thwarted). More attacks on Jews and synagogues. More of everything that is tearing our society apart.”
PROPAGANDA, INDEED:
