Why is the NY Times suddenly so interested in Trump staffer Papadopoulos (truncated)
FoxNews ^ | January 2, 2018 | Fox News

Over the weekend, the New York Times offered up a new explanation for why the FBI launched its investigation into the alleged collusion between President Trump and the Russian Government.

Chalk it up to the drunken whispers of a Trump staffer.

This Papadopoulos NY Slimes story is the latest spin to cover up the dossier. Separately, I just heard on WMAL's Mornings on the Mall an interview with Joe DeGenova. He said he learned over the weekend that the the infamous judge Contrares of the FISA court did not recuse himself from the Flynn case - he was FORCED to step down. Since Contrares had sat on the FISA court, he was aware of the DOJ fraud perpetrated on the FISA court, yet he went forward with the case on Flynn. This clearly establishes that Contreras is also corrupt and why Freepers were rightfully wondering what happened to him. Hopefully WMAL will post this mornings interview of DeGenova soon because it was a helluva interview. Joe needs to be appointed special prosecutor to lock these crooks up ASAP.

It had nothing to do with that phony dossier... It was Papadopoulos, that is why the investigation began... Incorrect and phony narrative, but it’s the NY Slimes... They need some sort of fallback story in an attempt to thwart the coming investigation of the dossier, it’s creators, it’s funding, etc.

If the dossier is all they had to secure wiretaps... Any convictions based on wiretapping will likely not survive appeals, etc.

Is Papadopoulous the so-called “Trump Aide” who never actually ever met or spoke with Trump?

There will be a new “thing” every week for the rest of Trump’s first term, just as there has been for the first year.

It was all about the dossier for the NYT and the rest of the media. They harped on that and Carter Page’s trip to Russia endlessly as being the LEGITIMATE basis for the investigation. One need only look at the NYT’s own reporting.

Now, in yet another case of treating us as if we are stupid, the NYT calls in their version of SERVPRO to make it like it never happened. “Dossier?!? What dossier? No, stupid Americans, we never said that and if you think we did, well, you are too stupid to think for yourselves. It is our job to tell you what to think.”

It’s Papadopolus and always has been. Of course, the NYT brings us this tripe by relying on the usual plethora of “unnamed sources” and a bevy of co-authors. Could it be that the unnamed sources are really a Deep State that is desperate to cover for its use of a bought and paid for piece of political propaganda that it knew was false?

Nah, it is into Trump Russia Collusion v50000.01. Que Adam Schiff. Que the never ending CNN groupthink panels.

Before the Papadopoulos story the Slimes claimed it was Carter Page. Remember that? That story never got traction and the dossier has become very revealing and problematic for the Deep State conspirators so they needed a new narrative to cover their tracks. Hence the latest red herring.

I think if you went and reviewed everything Papadopoulous was associated with between the summer of 2015 to now...he’s mostly an ‘empty-talker’. He claims all kinds of connections but none of them ever seem to prove much. For a while, he was with the Ben Carson campaign group. There are several Trump-folks who say that Trump has never met Papadopoulous.

Papadopolous was just another insignificant political groupie trying to act like he’s consequential and influential. He was neither. The political world is full of ingratiating wannabee’s like him.

It’s so critical that CINC portray the RATS and MenSeekingMen as malicious ex-wives who have devastated their exes and families consciously and on purpose but still fight to the death for his property and custody of his children. Every man will come out to vote against this ‘EX’ ever regaining power to destroy.

"Why is Fox News running with NYSlimes FAKE NEWS story, all weekend long???"

Because Fox News weekends are riddled with liberal hosts, commentators and guests way more so than on week days and evenings.

Some of us noticed that a long time ago.

If it can be proven that Trump never met Papadopoulous, that is grounds for impeachment!

Agree. Even so, was disheartened to see even Catherine Herridge reporting this “new twist, in the Dossier story”, with a smile on her face 😩
