Latest 24/7 political fiasco ongoing is the Trump “hush” money case! Wall to wall CNN “guilty” coverage is cringeworthy at best.

Hollywood and government payoffs have been a “mainstream” way to make money and/or cover up indiscretions. Just ask Bill and/or Hillary Clinton, Arnold Schwarzenegger etc!

Whilst it’s nothing to condone on either side, it’s been a part of US life for decades! Why Trump, why now is what will backfire on those who wish him in prison!

American people are more interested in inflation, border security and violence on university campus’s. Joe should just refocus off Trump and address what Americans want!!

The video from which the claim came from.

[Link]

The claim appears to come from the Peter G Peterson foundation, which according to its Youtube channel:

'The Peter G. Peterson Foundation is a non-partisan organization dedicated to addressing America’s long-term fiscal challenges to ensure a better economic future. Founded by Pete Peterson and led by Chairman and CEO Michael Peterson, the Foundation works with leading policy experts, elected officials, and the public to build support for solutions to put America on a sustainable fiscal path. The Foundation engages in grant-making, partnerships and research to educate and involve Americans from a variety of perspectives. '

Shoplift, rob,mug, car jack at will, yet spend how many millions prosecuting the guy standing against you for paying a p*** star is just not convincing anyone - except the already convinced.

He is not though charged with anything to do with paying off a p*** star which is apparently legal.

He is charged with false accounting designed to hide the truth from the electorate at a time when knowledge of his activities would have damaged his chances. In other words, election fraud.,

It’s New York State who are prosecuting him. I bet Biden would prefer they weren’t!

He is being prosecuted for election interference and not paying off a p*** star, which is not illegal. See my previous post.

Is he? Isn't the indictment for fraud?

So one guy makes the same type of claims that were made in 2001 and widely ridiculed thereafter and we are supposed to just accept them as valid?

If and when a few reliable outlets report this and try to analyse why it is happening, if indeed it is actually happening, then we can make an objective determination.

Until then, file it in the box marked “nutters”.,

'Reliable outlets'.

No doubt the same outlets who pushed the highly criticised 'Russiagate' hoax....which intelligence services had to apologise over and the same outlets who suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop calling it misinformation only later to be proven to be the ones pushing misinformation.

I provided proof that this is a known and embedded organisation. If any of their analysis of the US debt mountain is wrong then I'm happy to see evidence. I don't see any official denial myself.

His, democratic supporting 'outlets' are hardly going to focus upon the deep corruption and overspend within the deep state on spending.....though personally I regard this issue as active whatever the government is GOP or Dem.

Biden has just added significantly to the debt, but personally I think Trump would have as well....the US would have energy independence, probably not have us all in cold war and be doing better economically but they would still be overspending.

The actual indictment is falsifying business records with the intention to conceal information which would be damaging to an election campaign. Thus election interference as a consequence of fraudulent accounting.

OK. I hadn't seen any reference to election interference; just the falsifying business records part.

I looked a little deeper into the claims made about the missing trillions. Or, more accurately, not the validity of the claims themselves but who made them and why they aren’t found elsewhere. On any channel, mainstream, right or left.

It seems that The Peterson G Peterson Foundation is indeed a respected research organisation with a reputation for honest, unbiased analysis of the USA’s financial situation. So far so good.

They don’t though seem to have any connection to the presenter of the video, a Matt Kohrs. He is a YouTuber pushing “investor advice”, often about crypto, who has a somewhat spotty reputation.

I can only assume he used the page from the Peterson Foundation’s recent piece on the size of the national debt as his backdrop when making his video. I see no evidence at all that Peterson were involved or endorse the claims.

I could, of course, be wrong but right now it looks as though Kohrs is using Peterson to try to add authenticity to somewhat dubious claims. Something that the lack of any other reports tends to support.,
