(Natural News) POTUS Donald Trump and his administration have been under siege since before he was even inaugurated in January 2017, as elements of the Justice Department, FBI, intelligence community, and willing propagandists in the “mainstream” media have worked in concert to undermine his White House with the objective of deposing him.
This “soft coup” attempt is unprecedented in our history. Had it been successful, it would have turned our country in to the world’s biggest banana republic, where presidents serve not at the pleasure of the American people but instead at the behest of the Deep State ruling class.
The most visible ‘weapon’ deployed against the Trump presidency was the “Russian collusion” investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller. Initiated by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein in May of 2017, the investigation ensnared scores of Trump allies, former employees, and campaign staffers and advisers.
But in the end, not a single person including — importantly — POTUS himself was ever charged with “criminal collusion” or any other treasonous cooperation with a foreign power to “steal” the 2016 election from Hillary Clinton, the most criminally investigated presidential contender ever.
On Friday, Mueller finally filed his final report with the Justice Department. Attorney General William Barr, in a four-page summary to Congress on Sunday, quoted Mueller’s findings of “no collusion” and no evidence to charge the president with obstruction of justice (for doing what he’s permitted to do under the Constitution — fire federal employees, in this case, James Comey).
Now the president’s allies in Congress are preparing a counterattack against individuals known to have been involved in the coup attempt and who, suspiciously, were never probed by Mueller and his Clinton donor investigator/prosecutors.
As The National Sentinel reported last week, former House Intelligence Committee chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), now the panel’s ranking member, told One America News that members of his panel were preparing criminal referrals of individuals tied to the coup attempt who Mueller strangely “skipped over.” (Related: Russia hoax COLLAPSES: Not a single American charged with collusion with Russia; left-wing media has been LYING all along.)
Time for the coup conspirators to pay for their treason

“We’re still continuing to get to the bottom of what was happening to the Department of Justice and the FBI, trying to make sure that everyone there is held accountable…either through the courts or otherwise…. We’ll be making criminal referrals on a whole host of topics, most importantly probably lying and misleading Congress,” he told the network.
He added that Mueller has “skipped a whole bunch of people who’ve lied or mislead Congress, so we’ll be making those referrals to the Department of Justice.”
In a follow-up interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity, Nunes added:
We are preparing a criminal referral that we will present to the attorney general at the appropriate time…for many crimes. The obvious ones that you would know about would be lying to Congress. But we will also be looking at FISA [Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act] abuse and all the other matters that we have been looking into. It will probably be one large referral….
On Friday, hours, after Mueller filed his report with Barr, Nick Short with Security Studies Group, tweeted a quote from Nunes, “This is the unraveling of the biggest political scandal in American history…remember, this dates back to late 2015, early 2016 & this began as nothing more/nothing less than a Clinton/Obama operation with a bunch of dirty cops at the FBI & career DOJ officials.”
On Saturday, Nunes noted: “The Russia investigation was based on false pretenses, false intel, and false media reports. House Intel found a yr ago there was no evidence of collusion, and Democrats who falsely claim to have such evidence have needlessly provoked a terrible, more than two-year-long crisis.”

(Natural News) Now that special counsel Robert Mueller has filed his report with Attorney General William Barr and the Justice Department announced there would be no new indictments in his “witch hunt” investigation into imagined “collusion” between POTUS Donald Trump’s campaign and Mother Russia, the president wants a little payback.
Or justice.
Whatever you want to call it, it’s long overdue.
Specifically, the president wants to see some investigative action taken against members of the Obama-era Deep State who were involved in the coup attempt to overthrow him after he beat the pantsuit off of Hillary Clinton in 2016, much to their surprise and anger.
But also, POTUS wants to see some Democrats pay a political — and legal — price for their involvement and cover-ups as well.
“There are a lot of people out there that have done some very, very evil things, very bad things. I would say treasonous things against our country,” President Trump said at a White House meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Monday when asked about the conclusion of Muller’s investigation.
“And hopefully, people that have done such harm to our country, we’ve gone through a period of really bad things happening. Those people will certainly be looked at. I have been looking at them for a long time,” he added.
The president did not name specific people he would like to see investigated. However, he gave indications that they had a lot to do with triggering the special counsel probe, to begin with which, we’ve since learned, was premised on a hoax narrative devised pre- and post-election (an “insurance policy) to undermine him every moment of his presidency and, in doing so, find a way to depose him.
“Why haven’t they been looked at? They lied to Congress. Many of them, you know who they are. They’ve done so many evil things,” he said. (Related: Russia hoax COLLAPSES: Not a single American charged with collusion with Russia; left-wing media has been LYING all along.)
The president went on to note that what has happened to him and his administration cannot be allowed to happen to any other president — that includes weeding out Deep State rogues in the FBI and Justice Department, as well as the intelligence community.

Traitor is not too strong a word — or charge — against someone who tried to overthrow our president

“What they did, it was a false narrative, it was a terrible thing,” POTUS noted. “We can never let this happen to another president again.”
Democrats definitely deserve some blame here and, if at all possible, some legal attention.
Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) comes immediately to mind. Not only has he lied repeatedly to his constituents and to the American people regarding his oft-repeated claim that Trump “colluded” with Russia, he is a serial leaker, according to several people including former colleague Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.).
So does Rep. Eric Swalwell, another California Democrat. As Fox News’ Tucker Carlson said on his program Friday, he’s the “original collusion truther,” adding that there hasn’t been a single aspect of that bogus narrative he has failed to embrace and hasn’t repeated as established fact.
There are a host of others including Reps. Maxine Waters (another California Democrat) and Steve Cohen of Tennessee, both of whom have not only lied about collusion but have called for the president’s impeachment based on the lie.
There are plenty of Deep State operatives as well as current and former government officials who should not simply be allowed to resign or be fired but should face charges of treason: James Comey, John Brennan, James Clapper, Lisa Page, Bruce Ohr, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok, and Stephen Halper, to name a few.
And let’s never forget the ringleader himself — Barack Hussein Obama, for without his approval none of this would have taken place.
If the word “traitor” sounds too harsh, so be it. That’s what these people are; anyone who takes part in a plot to overthrow a duly elected, innocent president should be treated as an enemy of the state.

How Millions Were Duped By Russiagate: The "Illusory Truth" Effect



...what the hell happened? How did a fact-free conspiracy theory come to gain so much traction among mainstream Americans?

Tue, 03/26/2019 - 15:29

Authored by Caitlin Johnstone via Medium.com,

“Mueller Finds No Trump-Russia Conspiracy”, read the front page headline of Sunday’s New York Times. Bit by bit, mainstream American consciousness is slowly coming to terms with the death of the thrilling conspiracy theory that the highest levels of the US government had been infiltrated by the Kremlin, and with the stark reality that the mass media and the Democratic Party spent the last two and-a-half years monopolizing public attention with a narrative which never had any underlying truth to it.



There are still holdouts, of course. Many people invested a tremendous amount of hope, credibility, and egoic currency in the belief that Robert Mueller was going to arrest high-ranking Trump administration officials and members of Trump’s own family, leading seedy characters to “flip” on the president in their own self-interest and thereby providing evidence that will lead to impeachment. Some insist that Attorney General William Barr is holding back key elements of the Mueller report, a claim which is premised on the absurd belief that Mueller would allow Barr to lie about the results of the investigation without speaking up publicly. Others are still holding out hope that other investigations by other legal authorities will turn up some Russian shenanigans that Mueller could not, ignoring Mueller’s sweeping subpoena powers and unrivaled investigative authority. But they’re coming around.
The question still remains, though: what the hell happened? How did a fact-free conspiracy theory come to gain so much traction among mainstream Americans? How were millions of people persuaded to invest hope in a narrative that anyone objectively analyzing the facts knew to be completely false?
The answer is that they were told that the Russiagate narrative was legitimate over and over again by politicians and mass media pundits, and, because of a peculiar phenomenon in the nature of human cognition, this repetition made it seem true.
The rather uncreatively-named illusory truth effect describes the way people are more likely to believe something is true after hearing it said many times. This is due to the fact that the familiar feeling we experience when hearing something we’ve heard before feels very similar to our experience of knowing that something is true. When we hear a familiar idea, its familiarity provides us with something called cognitive ease, which is the relaxed, unlabored state we experience when our minds aren’t working hard at something. We also experience cognitive ease when we are presented with a statement that we know to be true.



Youtube Video https://youtu.be/cebFWOlx848

We have a tendency to select for cognitive ease, which is why confirmation bias is a thing; believing ideas which don’t cause cognitive strain or dissonance gives us more cognitive ease than doing otherwise. Our evolutionary ancestors adapted to seek out cognitive ease so that they could put their attention into making quick decisions essential for survival, rather than painstakingly mulling over whether everything we believe is as true as we think it is. This was great for not getting eaten by saber-toothed tigers in prehistoric times, but it’s not very helpful when navigating the twists and turns of a cognitively complex modern world. It’s also not helpful when you’re trying to cultivate truthful beliefs while surrounded by screens that are repeating the same bogus talking points over and over again.
I’m dealing with a perfect example of the perils of cognitive ease right now. Writing this essay has required me to move outside my familiar comfort zone of political commentary and read a bunch of studies and essays, think hard about new ideas, and then figure out how to convey them as clearly and concisely as possible without boring my audience. This movement away from cognitive ease has resulted in my checking Twitter a lot more often than I usually do, and seeking so much distraction that this essay will probably end up getting published about twelve hours later than I had intended. Having to read a bunch of scholars explaining the precise reasons why I’m acting like such an airhead hasn’t exactly helped my sense of cognitive ease any, either.

If you want to understand how the mass media duped millions into believing the Kremlin had infiltrated the highest levels of the US government, research the illusory truth effect, the phenomenon which causes people to mistake repeated assertions for truth. https://exploringyourmind.com/illusion-of-truth/ …

9:12 AM - Mar 25, 2019

Science has been aware of the illusory truth effect since 1977, when a study found that subjects were more likely to evaluate a statement as true when it’s been repeatedly presented to them over the course of a couple of weeks, even if they didn’t consciously remember having encountered that statement before. These findings have been replicated in numerous studies since, and new research in recent years has shown that the phenomenon is even more drastic than initially believed. A 2015 paper titled “Knowledge Does Not Protect Against Illusory Truth” found that the illusory truth effect is so strong that sheer repetition can change the answers that test subjects give, even when they had been in possession of knowledge contradicting that answer beforehand. This study was done to test the assumption which had gone unchallenged up until then that the illusory truth effect only comes into play when there is no stored knowledge of the subject at hand.

“Surprisingly, repetition increased statements’ perceived truth, regardless of whether stored knowledge could have been used to detect a contradiction,” the paper reads.
“Reading a statement like ‘A sari is the name of the short pleated skirt worn by Scots’ increased participants’ later belief that it was true, even if they could correctly answer the question ‘What is the name of the short pleated skirt worn by Scots?’”

Stored knowledge tells pretty much everybody that the “short, pleated skirt worn by Scots” is a kilt, not a sari, but simply repeating the contrary statement can convince them otherwise.
This explains why we all know people who are extraordinarily intelligent, but still bought into the Russiagate narrative just as much as our less mentally apt friends and acquaintances. Their intelligence didn’t save them from this debunked conspiracy theory, it just made them more clever in finding ways of defending it. This is because the illusory truth effect largely bypasses the intellect, and even one’s own stored knowledge, because of the way we all reflexively select for cognitive ease.
Another study titled “Incrimination through innuendo: Can media questions become public answers?” found that subjects can be manipulated into believing an allegation simply by exposure to innuendo or incriminating questions in news media headlines. Questions like, for example, “What If Trump Has Been a Russian Asset Since 1987?”, printed by New York Magazinein July of last year.

You can understand, then, how a populace who is consuming repetitive assertions, innuendo, and incriminating questions on a daily basis through the screens that they look at many times a day could be manipulated into believing that Robert Mueller would one day reveal evidence which will lead to the destruction of the Trump administration. The repetition leads to belief, the belief leads to trust, and before you know it people who are scared of the president are reading the Palmer Report every day and parking themselves in front of Rachel Maddow every night and letting everything they say slide right past their skepticism filters, marinating comfortably in a sedative of cognitive ease.
And that repetition has been no accident. CNN producer John Bonifield was caught on video nearly two years ago admitting that CNN’s CEO Jeff Zucker was personally instructing his staff to stay focused on Russia even in the midst of far more important breaking news stories.

“My boss, I shouldn’t say this, my boss yesterday we were having a discussion about this dental shoot and he goes and he was just like I want you to know what we are up against here,” Bonifield told an undercover associate of James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas.
“And he goes, just to give you some context, President Trump pulled out of the climate accords and for a day and a half we covered the climate accords. And the CEO of CNN said in our internal meeting, he said good job everybody covering the climate accords, but we’re done with it, let’s get back to Russia.”

(And before you get on me about O’Keefe’s shady record, CNN said in a statement that the video was legitimate and disputed none of its content, saying only that it stands by Bonifield and that “Diversity of personal opinion is what makes CNN strong, we welcome it and embrace it.”)
Zucker, for his part, told the New York Times in an article published yesterday that he was “entirely comfortable” with CNN’s role in promoting the Russiagate conspiracy theory the way that it did.

“We are not investigators. We are journalists, and our role is to report the facts as we know them, which is exactly what we did,” Zucker said.
“A sitting president’s own Justice Department investigated his campaign for collusion with a hostile nation. That’s not enormous because the media says so. That’s enormous because it’s unprecedented.”

After Mueller Report, News Media Leaders Defend Their Work

“We are not investigators”? What the **** kind of dumbass shit is that? So it’s not your job to investigate whether what you’re reporting is true or false? It’s not your job to investigate whether the anonymous sources you’re basing your reports on might be lying or not? It’s not your job to investigate whether or not you’d be committing journalistic malpractice with the multiple completely bullshit stories your outlet has been humiliated by in the last two years? It’s not your job to weigh the consequences of deliberately monopolizing public attention on a narrative which consists of nothing but confident-sounding assertions and innuendo?
“We are not investigators.” So? You’re not dentists or firefighters either, what’s your point? That has nothing to do with the mountains of journalistic malpractice you’ve been perpetrating by advancing this conspiracy theory, nor with the inexcusable brutalization you’ve been inflicting upon the American psyche with your deliberate nonstop repetition of bogus assertions, innuendo, and incriminating questions.
The science of modern propaganda has been in research and development for over a century. If you think about how many advances have been made in other military fields over the last hundred years, that gives you a clear example of how sophisticated an understanding the social engineers must now have of the methods of mass manipulation of human psychology. We may be absolutely certain that there are people who’ve been working to drive the public narratives about western rivals like Russia, and that they are doing so with a far greater understanding of the concepts we’ve touched on in this essay than we have at our disposal.
The manipulators understand our psyches better than we understand them ourselves, and they’re getting more clever, not less. The only thing we can do to keep our heads while immersed in a society that is saturated with propaganda is be as relentlessly honest as possible, with ourselves and with the world. We’ll never be able to out-manipulate the master manipulators, but we can be real with ourselves about whether or not we’re selecting for cognitive ease rather than thinking rigorously and clearly. We can be truthful with our friends, family, coworkers and social media followers wherever untruth seems to be taking hold. We can do our very best to shine the light of truth on the puppeteers wherever we spot them and ruin the whole goddamn show for everyone.
It may not seem like a lot, but truth is the one thing they can’t manipulate, whether it’s truth about them, truth about the world, or truthfulness with yourself. The lying manipulators got us into this mess, so only truth can get us out.

As the MSM pretends we all have goldfish brains and can't remember that they spent the last two years convicting Donald Trump in the court of public opinion, the New York Post is out with "Mueller Madness" brackets to determine who in the media takes the cake for the peddling the most fiction.

The president’s haters no doubt wish to memory-hole collusion and move on to the next anti-Trump theory. But not so fast: We want to laurel the punditry “champion” — the one who peddled the most nonsensical nonsense, the wildest inanities, the weirdest theories and unsubstantiated stories.
That’s where your brackets come in.
