Their own documents fail to prove their ludicrous claims. But conforming to reality has never been a prerequisite for Trumpist bullshittery. And it isn&#8217;t now. Which explains why Trump&#8217;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 <em>(video below)<\/em>&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;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.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>What Leavitt is referring to are articles that accurately reported the well documented and unsavory associations between Trump&#8217;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 <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=55718\" target=\"_blank\">Trump is now suing the Pulitzer board<\/a><\/strong> in a futile and infantile effort to get them revoked. But Leavitt was just getting started. She went on to complain that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;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.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I will now pass it over to the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, to speak more about all of this.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"embed-twitter\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Leavitt: Reporters at legacy outlets, some of which are sitting in this room today, were ridiculously awarded pulitzer prizes for their perpetuation of this hoax.

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 <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intelligence.senate.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/sites-default-files-documents-report-volume5.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">bipartisan Committee reported<\/a><\/strong> that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;\u2026the Russian government engaged in an aggressive, multifaceted effort to influence, or attempt to influence, the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.

On the other hand, it could make a pretty good farcical satire about nutcases propagating insane delusions of government psyops.
