That was NEVER going to work. That they resorted to it so quickly is a sign of weakness, not strength. Gotta keep up the fight.

Side note: Dwight managed to get himself banned from the Sabres site, too. Too bad, some of his best work was there. Like "I believe there is a very good chance that Ryan Miller does not have proper depth perception due to a cranial deformity in his early childhood." http://forums.sabrespace.com/topic/16615-revisiting-ryan-millers-eyes/?do=findComment&comment=188888

 

And the links in this thread lead to lots of his gems.

That's awesome. "The conservative media machine is creating fake news about our fake news, so we can't call their fake news 'fake news' anymore!"

 

Hey...hacks. Stop being hacks, and this stops being a problem.

The Deep State Goes to War with President-Elect, Using Unverified Claims, as Democrats Cheer


IN JANUARY, 1961, Dwight Eisenhower delivered his farewell address after serving two terms as U.S. president; the five-star general chose to warn Americans of this specific threat to democracy: “In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.” That warning was issued prior to the decadelong escalation of the Vietnam War, three more decades of Cold War mania, and the post-9/11 era, all of which radically expanded that unelected faction’s power even further.

This is the faction that is now engaged in open warfare against the duly elected and already widely disliked president-elect, Donald Trump. They are using classic Cold War dirty tactics and the defining ingredients of what has until recently been denounced as “Fake News.”

Their most valuable instrument is the U.S. media, much of which reflexively reveres, serves, believes, and sides with hidden intelligence officials. And Democrats, still reeling from their unexpected and traumatic election loss as well as a systemic collapse of their party, seemingly divorced further and further from reason with each passing day, are willing — eager — to embrace any claim, cheer any tactic, align with any villain, regardless of how unsupported, tawdry and damaging those behaviors might be.

One sentence summary: A battle of ideologies within the Deep State of the United States is what the !@#$ is going on.

 

One paragraph overview:

 

CIA isn't comprised of one uniform ideology or allegiance (in the terms we're talking about), there is/has been/was a dominant faction in control of the CIA for at least the past few decades. These folks very publicly backed Hillary's campaign. There was/is a counter culture element within the Intelligence Community that very publicly backed Trump, most visibly in this case the FBI (but also many within CIA). The people behind Trump positioned him to be against everything the dominate faction believes in (he's not a nation builder or regime change guy). Since he won, Trump has threatened to gut the Intelligence Agencies across the board. As a result, the folks who backed the wrong horse have been throwing a temper tantrum ever since the election. The headlines the past two days are clear examples of this.

 

Here's a link to the already posted article which is very relevant: https://theintercept.com/2017/01/11/the-deep-state-goes-to-war-with-president-elect-using-unverified-claims-as-dems-cheer/

Controlled by shadow government: Mike Lofgren reveals how top U.S. officials are at the mercy of the “deep state”

 

http://www.salon.com/2016/01/05/controlled_by_shadow_government_mike_lofgren_reveals_how_top_u_s_officials_are_at_the_mercy_of_the_deep_state/

 

Is there any scenario in which the deep state’s influence and power can be curtailed or eliminated? Or does the fact that it’s evolved sort of organically suggest that only something truly revolutionary could upend it?

The deep state has created so many contradictions in this country. You have this enormous disparity of rich and poor; and you have this perpetual war, even though we’re braying about freedom. We have a surveillance state, and we talk about freedom. We have internal contradictions. Who knows what this will fly into? It may collapse like the Soviet Union; or it might go into fascism with a populist camouflage — like Trump is selling us.

 

:cry:

DR,

For as long as I can remember (I'm old now though so I can't remember much) I've never taken MSM news at face value, rather I've tried to decipher what the players in the background, the Deep State players, were trying to do through the media. A few years back I recall GG and I had a bit of a debate (imagine that) about one of the ME wars (who knows which one now), that it seemed there was a spy vs spy "fight" going on between those who wanted to invade and those who didn't. I think you are correct, we are in the middle of a doozy right now, as Trump and Flynn are a threat to one wing--the CIA, who has been waging the covert war in Syria. Here's a good piece related to the hacking that also gets into the deep state fisticuffs.
