Matt Taibbi: The press has now handed Trump the mother of campaign issues heading into 2020

It's official: Russiagate is this generation's WMD:

Nothing Trump is accused of from now on by the press will be believed by huge chunks of the population, a group that (perhaps thanks to this story) is now larger than his original base. As [Peter] Baker notes [in the New York Times], a full 50.3% of respondents in a poll conducted this month said they agree with Trump the Mueller probe is a “witch hunt.” ...

The biggest thing this affair has uncovered so far is Donald Trump paying off a porn star. That’s a hell of a long way from what this business was supposedly about at the beginning, and shame on any reporter who tries to pretend this isn’t so. ...

CNN told us Trump officials had been in “constant contact” with “Russians known to U.S. intelligence,” and the former director of the CIA ["former" communist John Brennan], who’d helped kick-start the investigation that led to Mueller’s probe, said the President was guilty of “high crimes and misdemeanors,” committing acts “nothing short of treasonous.” ...

[N]ews outlets once again swallowed a massive disinformation campaign, only this error is many orders of magnitude more stupid than any in the recent past, WMD included. Honest reporters like ABC’s Terry Moran understand: Mueller coming back empty-handed on collusion means a “reckoning for the media.” Of course, there won’t be such a reckoning. (There never is). But there should be. We broke every written and unwritten rule in pursuit of this story, starting with the prohibition on reporting things we can’t confirm. ...

The Russiagate era has so degraded journalism that even once “reputable” outlets are now only about as right as politicians, which is to say barely ever, and then only by accident. Early on, I was so amazed by the sheer quantity of Russia “bombshells” being walked back, I started to keep a list. It’s well above 50 stories now. As has been noted by Glenn Greenwald of the Intercept and others, if the mistakes were random, you’d expect them in both directions, but Russiagate errors uniformly go the same way. ...

We’ve become sides-choosers, obliterating the concept of the press as an independent institution whose primary role is sorting fact and fiction.

Bill Kristol is the neoconservatives' poster child for consistency

Consistently wrong.

Failed Senate candidate Beto O'Rourke hopes to win something by giving driver's licenses to illegal aliens

I think he win another failure.

Sí, I do think so.

Left-wing scam artist set up fake political action committees for Bernie, Beto and kept the dough for himself

California con man set up bogus websites for Bernie Sanders, Beto O'Rourke to defraud donors, prosecutors say:

A notorious California con man has been charged with defrauding donors out of more than $250,000 sent to sham political groups and websites for Beto O'Rourke, Bernie Sanders and other prominent Democrats, prosecutors said Tuesday. ...

47-year-old Italian citizen of Senegalese origin torches school bus, tries to kill kids in retaliation against Matteo Salvini

Driver hijacks, sets ablaze school bus in Italy, children flee unharmed:

An unnamed girl was also quoted as saying that Sy blamed deputy prime ministers Matteo Salvini and Luigi Di Maio for the deaths of African migrants at sea.

 

Rush Limbaugh's "more job openings" than people available to fill them are designed to find no one qualified

Here. And if no one is qualified, presto!, immigration visa time!

As of June 2018 over 1 million illegal aliens have final deportation orders but they're still here

Why aren’t we deporting illegal aliens who already have deportation orders?

The unstated answer is incompetence and opposition at the highest levels of government.

Italy's Matteo Salvini actually does the job Donald Trump only talks about doing

Spell check to aisle seven.

Trump is catching 'em alright, and releasing them into the USA at a rate of 1,337 per day for the last three months

They are storming the border because they know Trump is all talk, no action, and incompetent. By signing the funding bill to end the shutdown he actually signed a bill which reduced facility space to hold detainees, meaning he has to release more than before by law.

He's his own worst enemy and has made the problem worse.

Trump has had plenty of time to discover his personnel problem and fix it, so it's all on him

If Hillary were president . . .

John DeStefano, in charge of Trump's 4,000 personnel appointments in 2017, was John Boehner aide

White House personnel official described Trump GOP nomination as 'end of the world':

Fear about a bias toward establishment picks emerged in 2017, when Trump selected DeStefano to lead the PPO. He had worked as an aide to former House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, before leading Data Trust. Eyebrows raised with appointees with views at odds with some of Trump’s, such as former national security adviser H.R. McMaster, former foreign policy adviser Dina Powell, and Venezuela envoy Elliott Abrams. ...

A former White House official said DeStefano, 39, set the tone for the PPO with an “us versus them” mentality, often referring to Trump backers as “the MAGA people.” ...

Trump is said to have grown angry with DeStefano at times, including upon finding that a National Security Council official, Jordan Kelly, had not been dismissed from her role as a cyber expert more than a year after he requested it, according to a source.
