October Surprise

WASHINGTON — It has been more than four decades, but Ben Barnes said he remembers it vividly. His longtime political mentor invited him on a mission to the Middle East. What Mr. Barnes said he did not realize until later was the real purpose of the mission: to sabotage the re-election campaign of the president of the United States.

Buying the vote.

Some bullshit is obvious and some is sneaky – but it's every-fucking-where. This is just a riff on the subject. I'm publishing it here in the spirit of a Public Service Announcement...or for some other reason I can't remember.

Bullshit masquerading as reportage ( rhymes with garbage): Tales of Peter Strzok

Due to the extensive political education I am receiving at c99 University, I have been schooled in reading political opinion disguised as factual reporting.
