Interesting that he never mentioned the National Endowment for Democracy’s involvement in Xinjiang.

Did some research into Ken LaCorte:

In March 2019, Jane Mayer reported in The New Yorker that Fox News reporter Diana Falzone had the story of the Stormy Daniels–Donald Trump scandal before the 2016 election, but that LaCorte told her, “Good reporting, kiddo. But Rupert [Murdoch] wants Donald Trump to win. So just let it go,” and the story was killed.

Fuck this liberal red baiting bullshit. This sub is being hit so hard with this.

Even the US State Dept, who helped fabricate the Uyghur Genocide hoax, was forced to admit they had absolutely no evidence to back up their claims.

What BS is that, exactly?

Also, what BS do you recommend? Is there a brand you trust enough to suggest your fellow fediverse anons (eg. me) maybe give a tryout?
