If anyone is curious about just how frightened Donald Trump is about the prospect of the Jeffrey Epstein files being released, all they need to do is observe how desperately he is pushing preposterous and wholly unsupported allegations against President Obama, who Trump et al are accusing of treason.

Ever since the blatant hypocrisy of Trump’s Attorney Genuflect, Pam Bondi, assuring Fox News that she is reviewing the Epstein client list that is “sitting on my desk right now,” then subsequently insisting that no such list exists, the snowballing backlash aimed at Trump, from his own most loyal cult followers, has threatened to bury him politically. Consequently, he has concocted a malicious, mendacious melodrama wherein he and his cohorts are accusing Obama of a capital crime against America.

The allegations by the Trump regime have no basis in reality. Their own documents fail to prove their ludicrous claims. But conforming to reality has never been a prerequisite for Trumpist bullshittery. And it isn’t now. Which explains why Trump’s Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, can shamelessly stand behind the podium in the White House Press Briefing Room and spout off bona fide garbage like this (video below)…

“This is truly one of the greatest political scandals in American history. And reporters at legacy outlets, some of which are sitting in this room today, like the New York Times and the Washington Post, were ridiculously awarded Pulitzer prizes for their perpetuation of this hoax. It is well past time for those awards to be stripped from the journalists that received them.”

What Leavitt is referring to are articles that accurately reported the well documented and unsavory associations between Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and Russian operatives. Those articles were thoroughly researched and backed up by both documentary evidence and witness testimony. They deservedly won Pulitzer prizes for which Trump is now suing the Pulitzer board in a futile and infantile effort to get them revoked. But Leavitt was just getting started. She went on to complain that…

“It is not journalism to propagate political disinformation in service of the Democrat Party and those in the intelligence community who hand over out of context and fake intelligence to push a false political narrative.

“I will now pass it over to the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, to speak more about all of this.”

Leavitt is actually right that “It is not journalism to propagate political disinformation.” Even though that is exactly what she is doing. This is just another swing at the crackpot conspiracy theory that Obama had intelligence reports altered to say that Russia tried to interfere in the 2016 election. Which in fact, they did try to do. That was affirmed by multiple analyses by the Intel community, as well as the Senate Intelligence Committee investigation that was led by then-senator Marco Rubio. The bipartisan Committee reported that…

“…the Russian government engaged in an aggressive, multifaceted effort to influence, or attempt to influence, the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. […and that…] Moscow’s intent was to harm the Clinton Campaign, tarnish an expected Clinton presidential administration, help the Trump Campaign after Trump became the presumptive Republican nominee, and undermine the U.S. democratic process.”

The plot of this phony scandal by Trump, Leavitt, and Gabbard, would make a really bad political movie due its implausibility and utter lack of factual substance. On the other hand, it could make a pretty good farcical satire about nutcases propagating insane delusions of government psyops. And they could use the real graphics contrived by Trump’s people, such as the one on the left below that was posted by both Trump and his White House accounts…

Trump's White House isn't babbling about crackpot conspiracy theories at all, are they?
