    This one has been going around by multiple sources, and has gained a lot of steam lately:

    Paul Ryan is on tape (intercepts) while in Cleveland with Sergei Kislyak about funding the GOP, and contemplating possible laundering avenues.

    Who is in possession of these tapes? Bobby Mueller. Funny how Ryan abruptly retired, Eh? :lol:

    This correlates with the absurd amount of sealed indictments, and the fact that Mueller has structured the investigation exactly how he took down organized crime families: RICO

    Do you hear that? It's the Republican Party death rattle.

    Can we also do Info-Wars style rumors?

    Trump - Putin - Ivanka - many crocks of fresh churned butter - Jerrod tied to a chair and forced to watch....you know, the classics! :evilfire:

    It would explain his early retirement, his allowing of Nunes' absurd games, and his general lack of effort.

    COMMIE PROPAGANDA RAG NPR BUSTED AGAIN!

    False claim of Trump Jr. legal jeopardy forces NPR to issue correction
    By Lukas Mikelionis | Fox News

    NPR forced to issue apology to Trump Jr.
    NPR was forced to issue a correction after alleging Donald Trump Jr. lied to the Senate.

    NPR was forced to issue a lengthy correction Friday after falsely accusing Donald Trump Jr. of lying to the Senate about plans to build a Trump Tower in Moscow, claiming his statements contradicted Michael Cohen’s plea deal with Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

    The public radio network, which receives federal funds, used Trump Jr.’s Senate testimony transcript from 2017 to report that he said the Trump Organization’s possible real estate deal in Russia “faded away” by the end of 2014.

    The eldest son of President Trump then denied the deal was being discussed in 2016.

    “There was never a definitive end to it. It just died of deal fatigue,” he told the Senate.

    This answer, according to NPR, placed Trump Jr. in serious legal jeopardy because Cohen said in a plea agreement earlier this week that he continued working on the deal through June 2016 and he even told the president and his children about it.

    But critics claimed that NPR rushed the story, overlooking other answers by Trump Jr. that show he admitted the Trump Tower Moscow was being discussed in 2016.

    “It’s been reported that in late 2015 or 2016 when now-President Trump was running for office the Trump Organization was pursuing a plan to develop a massive Trump Tower in Moscow. Is that accurate?” Trump Jr. was asked by the Senate.

    "Yes," came his reply.

    Five hours later after publishing the article on its website, NPR issued a correction -- though it didn’t fully retract the article, admitting only that it “mischaracterized” Trump Jr.'s answers.

    “An earlier version of this report mischaracterized an answer Donald Trump Jr. gave to Senate investigators in 2017 about the prospective projects his family was negotiating with people in Moscow,” the editor’s note read.

    "An earlier version of this report mischaracterized an answer Donald Trump Jr. gave to Senate investigators in 2017 about the prospective projects his family was negotiating with people in Moscow."

    — NPR
    The outlet went on to acknowledge that Trump Jr.’s remark about the deal that fell apart in 2014 referred to a different set of negotiations and not the ones to which Cohen was referring.

    “Trump Jr. did acknowledge in his testimony that Cohen and another man were exploring a possible deal in Moscow in 2015 or 2016,” the correction added.

    Trump Jr. celebrated the correction in a series of tweets. “I guess this is as close as I’ll get to an apology where yet another ‘bombshell’ bites the dust,” he wrote in a tweet. “Pro tip: don’t just rush to publish anything thinking that it’s the got ya you so desperately want it to be. CNN has the market cornered on that... let them own it.”

    Despite the massive error, the NPR story attracted attention from a number of Democratic lawmakers, including U.S. Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont and U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell of California, who have not yet deleted their misleading tweets.

    “A good lesson for all kids (and for anyone in the White House): the truth always comes out,” Swalwell tweeted.

    CNN BOTCHES DATES, INACCURATELY REPORTS TRUMP CAMPAIGN HAD WIKILEAKS SNEAK PEEK

    It was at least the second time Trump Jr. was the subject of botched reporting. CNN’s now-debunked story last year claimed the president’s eldest son had a sneak peek at hacked information that WikiLeaks had acquired.

    The liberal network claimed an email was sent to Trump Jr. and Trump campaign associated a week before WikiLeaks posted the information publicly.

    But it turned out that CNN got the date of the email wrong and it was actually sent a day after WikiLeaks already published the information, prompting the network to issue a correction that effectively retracted the article.

    All media are driven by $'s and ratings. Anymore there is no unbiased reporting as the factual news isn't enough in a world of 24/7 & multi media.

    Here are some fun facts for you to spend some time on the interwebs looking up...

    Rupert (I own Fox News) Murdoch's ex-wife is currently one of Putin's girlfriends.

    And she is very close friends with Ivanka and Jared. She was the one who got then back together after they broke up in 2008.

    People on both sides need to stop saying stuff like this.
    While the two party system should be done away with. Neither the Republican party nor the Democratic party are going to die.
    People who say stuff like this are just attempting to bait the other side.
    It happened after the 16 election, happened after the 12 election. It's just utter nonsense.
    Stop baiting.

    As if there aren't enough reasons to not interact with the OT section, you went off and made a political rumor thread.

    Not divisive and obviously the OT is in great shape!!!

    One of many direct ties to Putin. Fox downplays Russia and clearly promotes a carefully constructed narrative.

    Again, if you don't like what is being posted in the OT section then make threads about subjects you are interested in.

    I made a very nice one about farts.

    Yeah I have tried before and unfortunately every one of those topics including yours you have posted fall off the front page fast. This isn't the OT section anymore, it's a political section
