- It is worth noting that the three New York Times reporters Charlie Savage, Eric Schmitt, and Michael Schwirtz also played key roles in disseminating the Russia collusion hoax, in which anonymous intelligence officials worked with co-conspirators in the media for years to put out a false and defamatory narrative that President Donald Trump had colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 election or was otherwise compromised.
- An Associated Press story now asserts without evidence that John Bolton, who is on a book tour right now, told colleagues he briefed Trump on the intelligence assessment in March 2019. But in a softball interview Sunday by Jake Tapper, a reporter who played a key role in initiating the false Russia collusion hoax at CNN, Bolton repeatedly stressed his lack of knowledge about the story and his suspicion it might not be true.
- White House Director of Strategic Communications Alyssa Farah disputed that the intelligence was as airtight as the New York Times reporters had claimed, based on their anonymous and unaccountable sources: POTUS wasn’t briefed on the reports related to Afghanistan because there is no consensus within the intelligence community on the allegations at this point.
- But it seems the media aren't caring about the facts so much as the overarching plan to believe this intelligence is airtight no matter what, that the intelligence was definitely briefed to Trump and Vice President Mike Pence, no matter what, and that this story must continue to be pushed on airwaves no matter its deficiencies or the obvious coordination of its rollout.
- Tapper, for example, asked Bolton, Do you think it's possible that Putin has information on President Trump? The New York Times reporters also dredged up the debunked Russia collusion theories.
