Architects of Russia hoax get defensive
The left's reaction to Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard's continual document releases just keeps getting better. While Tulsi continues to hoist former Clinton and Obama officials and allies up on their own petards, the hoistees are casting about for ways to deflect the damage.
In one such move, James Clapper and John Brennan, two of the architects of the Russian collusion lie, took to the friendly New York Times to defend themselves. The ink was scarcely dry before they were being torched in the new media - you know, the media outlets and opinion writers that aren't a de facto arm of the Democrat party.
James Clapper and John Brennan penned an op-ed in The New York Times defending their Russian collusion hoax peddling. Do these men have no shame? It’s a rhetorical question. Of course, they don’t. But the piece was published before the release of the declassified annex of the Durham report, which investigated the origins of the Russian collusion hoax, and it’s been burned to ash. I don’t know what these guys were thinking—this game is over. We know what you did, and how you did it. The only lingering question is when FBI agents arrive at your homes and cuff you, which would make a most satisfying sight.

Most of it is a recycling of fiction, a reloading of the myth that there was Russian collusion. Brennan and Clapper insist that there is no conspiracy. The documents say otherwise. Brennan had no credible source that Moscow wanted Trump to win. To the contrary, they couldn’t care less but felt Hillary Clinton would win the 2016 election. They had nothing on Trump—no blackmail file. They did have dirt on Clinton, however. Two of the Obama administration’s most shameless and eloquent liars are doing it again, and it’s no shock that The New York Times greenlit this laughable piece. And yes, they did pressure analysts to sign off on their fiction.
...
It looks like the Russian collusion hoax was a total fraud made up by people desperate to defeat Trump. There was literally no evidence to support this fraud. Those engaged in the politics of fraud should be getting their comeuppance.
