How does one lose trust? By actions, or because someone *says* shit?
You woke up in a banana republic not because someone said a bunch of words, but because your institutions behaved in that manner.

Please, go take a nap or a valium or something.

Can't make no money if the gummint won't let you steal shit from the
suckers. Gotta have institutions what institute the right way (not
commie fascist pussy hat democrat).

Words are important when ordering institutions to enable your wealth
pathways. Yelling on Faux Nooz works best because everybody watches it
and falls in step. Good TP and car commercials too.

Trump ‘hereby demands' the Justice Department investigate his conspiracy theories. That's not how it works
////////
We need the LA Times to tell us how "it" works.

So far, it works like this. The media describes Trump being wiretapped. He then tweets about being wiretapped, and is accused of conspiracy theories.

Yep, it's all a conspiracy theory.

The NYT in 1983 said the Reagan campaign spying operation “involved a number of retired Central Intelligence Agency officials and was highly secretive.” The article, by then-NYT reporter Leslie Gelb, added that its “sources identified Stefan A. Halper, a campaign aide involved in providing 24-hour news updates and policy ideas to the traveling Reagan party, as the person in charge.” Halper, now 73, had also worked with Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney, and Alexander Haig as part of the Nixon administration.

When the scandal first broke in 1983, the UPI suggested that Halper’s handler for this operation was Reagan’s Vice Presidential candidate, George H.W. Bush, who had been the CIA Director and worked there with Halper’s father-in-law, former CIA Deputy Director Ray Cline, who worked on Bush’s 1980 presidential campaign before Bush ultimately became Reagan’s Vice President. It quoted a former Reagan campaign official as blaming the leak on “conservatives [who] are trying to manipulate the Jimmy Carter papers controversy to force the ouster of White House Chief of Staff James Baker.”

Halper, through his CIA work, has extensive ties to the Bush family. Few remember that the CIA’s perceived meddling in the 1980 election – its open support for its former Director, George H.W. Bush to become President – was a somewhat serious political controversy. And Halper was in that middle of that, too.

I have written American Thinker off as hopelessly biased to the extreme
right. After they come up way short on some significant fact checks, I
put them into the same bin Breitbart, Faux and Drudge live in - check
only to see what the wingnut made-up-crap narrative of the day is this
time.

Pick from this list if you care to be honest and don't feel like digging
through the muck to sort out the bullshit:

When I am "caring to be honest" I am not clinging to words like wingnut, Faux, and so forth. You almost made a politics free post. A definite improvement.

Without the absolute moral authority vested by the Christian creator in
the extreme right, it is not possible to make any statement which is not
political. Salting a sentence with terms what trigger rock-ribbed
patriots simply informs the reader that all that follows is leftist PC
crap to be ignored and that no time should be wasted before launching a
tirade 'bout all that is wrong with leftism.

The minute they can do what I do, feel free to actually believe that.
