Scott Horton: Russiagate Pushers Were Basically 9/11 Truthers

WOODS Well let s ░░░░░░░░ into this here Obviously ░░░░░░░░ ve heard an awful ░░░░░░░░ about Russiagate for quite ░░░░░░░░ time And no matter ░░░░░░░░ information came out it ░░░░░░░░ seemed to dissuade the ░░░░░░░░ believers that they know ░░░░░░░░ still is some smoking ░░░░░░░░ or there really is ░░░░░░░░ relationship between Trump and ░░░░░░░░ no matter what So ░░░░░░░░ thing came out this ░░░░░░░░ report that basically says ░░░░░░░░ there was no evidence ░░░░░░░░ anything at the time ░░░░░░░░ this investigation was over ░░░░░░░░ was no evidence of ░░░░░░░░ So then I saw ░░░░░░░░ I ll grant you ░░░░░░░░ did not press play ░░░░░░░░ it but I saw ░░░░░░░░ on Twitter that Joe ░░░░░░░░ on his morning show ░░░░░░░░ said oh this thing ░░░░░░░░ all nothing this is ░░░░░░░░ big flop Well how ░░░░░░░░ you look at this ░░░░░░░░ and say I was ░░░░░░░░ how are they going ░░░░░░░░ spin this and somehow ░░░░░░░░ s still trying to ░░░░░░░░ to it HORTON Sure ░░░░░░░░ the spin is easy ░░░░░░░░ I saw this immediately ░░░░░░░░ my Twitter replies from ░░░░░░░░ liberals which is oh ░░░░░░░░ where are all the ░░░░░░░░ Come on you think ░░░░░░░░ re going to put ░░░░░░░░ former Director of National ░░░░░░░░ in prison the former ░░░░░░░░ of the CIA this ░░░░░░░░ director of the FBI ░░░░░░░░ prison for this WOODS ░░░░░░░░ But you know what ░░░░░░░░ need to HORTON Come ░░░░░░░░ They re not going ░░░░░░░░ do that WOODS They ░░░░░░░░ to HORTON Well yeah ░░░░░░░░ that s completely besides ░░░░░░░░ point WOODS I mean ░░░░░░░░ all we got was ░░░░░░░░ statement about how yeah ░░░░░░░░ know these missteps that ░░░░░░░░ been chronicled these occurred ░░░░░░░░ 2016 and 2017 and ░░░░░░░░ ve made some reform ░░░░░░░░ then so they won ░░░░░░░░ have HORTON They do ░░░░░░░░ that in there WOODS ░░░░░░░░ no prosecutions recommended HORTON ░░░░░░░░ look I mean I ░░░░░░░░ up on this when ░░░░░░░░ was a little kid ░░░░░░░░ even over the worst ░░░░░░░░ of things oh yeah ░░░░░░░░ American backed mercenaries in ░░░░░░░░ hacked all these nuns ░░░░░░░░ pieces So this was ░░░░░░░░ cause for some embarrassment ░░░░░░░░ the part of officials ░░░░░░░░ Washington huh But that ░░░░░░░░ as bad as it ░░░░░░░░ for them WOODS That ░░░░░░░░ as bad as it ░░░░░░░░ but yet Trump they ░░░░░░░░ put him on trial ░░░░░░░░ absolutely anything HORTON Yeah ░░░░░░░░ and that s the ░░░░░░░░ here is this thing ░░░░░░░░ fake And as you ░░░░░░░░ about the true believers ░░░░░░░░ s an important point ░░░░░░░░ The term conspiracy theory ░░░░░░░░ so unfairly abused I ░░░░░░░░ but the thing is ░░░░░░░░ really is such a ░░░░░░░░ I used to be ░░░░░░░░ more of a conspiracy ░░░░░░░░ I was like a ░░░░░░░░ Birch New World Order ░░░░░░░░ in the 1990s The ░░░░░░░░ always win and whatever ░░░░░░░░ in foreign policy it ░░░░░░░░ all because one day ░░░░░░░░ re building a one ░░░░░░░░ federal government under the ░░░░░░░░ Nations And it all ░░░░░░░░ until it just didn ░░░░░░░░ especially in a drive ░░░░░░░░ Iraq War too all ░░░░░░░░ fell apart Dick Cheney ░░░░░░░░ not a one world ░░░░░░░░ it s just different ░░░░░░░░ that Neither is Richard ░░░░░░░░ for that matter And ░░░░░░░░ understand that way of ░░░░░░░░ and I ve been ░░░░░░░░ a lot of kooks ░░░░░░░░ my life too and ░░░░░░░░ are alternative culture kooks ░░░░░░░░ the right and the ░░░░░░░░ and there are very ░░░░░░░░ ones And there really ░░░░░░░░ such a thing as ░░░░░░░░ closed loop circular reasoning ░░░░░░░░ thinking And you can ░░░░░░░░ on 9 11 truthers ░░░░░░░░ are right about some ░░░░░░░░ or you can pick ░░░░░░░░ whatever kind you want ░░░░░░░░ prefer to pick on ░░░░░░░░ powerful truthers and look ░░░░░░░░ in fact this is ░░░░░░░░ of things that cured ░░░░░░░░ of being such a ░░░░░░░░ nut is even though ░░░░░░░░ had predicted 9 11 ░░░░░░░░ it happened and said ░░░░░░░░ s all going to ░░░░░░░░ a hoax and whenever ░░░░░░░░ years I said it ░░░░░░░░ going to happen But ░░░░░░░░ it did happen I ░░░░░░░░ see how they were ░░░░░░░░ to all these conclusions ░░░░░░░░ a missile that hit ░░░░░░░░ Pentagon and all these ░░░░░░░░ in the towers and ░░░░░░░░ this nonsense and cherry ░░░░░░░░ little facts to make ░░░░░░░░ seem right right at ░░░░░░░░ exact same time that ░░░░░░░░ s what Richard Perle ░░░░░░░░ Paul Wolfowitz and Dick ░░░░░░░░ were doing and trying ░░░░░░░░ make it look like ░░░░░░░░ Hussein did it And ░░░░░░░░ were doing it in ░░░░░░░░ parallel and it was ░░░░░░░░ same kind of bogus ░░░░░░░░ And I could just ░░░░░░░░ yeah I don t ░░░░░░░░ to be part of ░░░░░░░░ I would rather be ░░░░░░░░ and more careful and ░░░░░░░░ later I guess But ░░░░░░░░ Russiagate thing is pure ░░░░░░░░ theory And of course ░░░░░░░░ spent years saying that ░░░░░░░░ re a conspiracy theorist ░░░░░░░░ you don t believe ░░░░░░░░ it Right Oh conspiracy ░░░░░░░░ would have you believe ░░░░░░░░ the FBI and the ░░░░░░░░ just made all this ░░░░░░░░ right But what was ░░░░░░░░ that they actually had ░░░░░░░░ was just like the ░░░░░░░░ against Saddam Hussein It ░░░░░░░░ 10 times zero still ░░░░░░░░ zero They can make ░░░░░░░░ after claim after claim ░░░░░░░░ it s just not ░░░░░░░░ It adds up all ░░░░░░░░ nothing So in this ░░░░░░░░ you have Papadopoulos and ░░░░░░░░ have Page and you ░░░░░░░░ Sessions and you have ░░░░░░░░ course Mike Flynn and ░░░░░░░░ have the Alfa Bank ░░░░░░░░ the Yota Phones and ░░░░░░░░ have all of these ░░░░░░░░ goes on and on ░░░░░░░░ on The hacking of ░░░░░░░░ SPAN and Mike Flynn ░░░░░░░░ being seduced by this ░░░░░░░░ spy and of course ░░░░░░░░ of the Facebook and ░░░░░░░░ ads none of it ░░░░░░░░ of it was true ░░░░░░░░ of it It s ░░░░░░░░ just pure lies But ░░░░░░░░ you believe in it ░░░░░░░░ say you re some ░░░░░░░░ that listens to NPR ░░░░░░░░ in the afternoon on ░░░░░░░░ way home from work ░░░░░░░░ you buy into all ░░░░░░░░ this stuff then it ░░░░░░░░ makes sense It all ░░░░░░░░ together See Trump is ░░░░░░░░ They got this pee ░░░░░░░░ on him and they ░░░░░░░░ him all blackmailed and ░░░░░░░░ now he s got ░░░░░░░░ work with them to ░░░░░░░░ sure to rig the ░░░░░░░░ And so they send ░░░░░░░░ Cohen his lawyer to ░░░░░░░░ to arrange to pay ░░░░░░░░ the hackers and then ░░░░░░░░ Paul Manafort and Carter ░░░░░░░░ give him secret instructions ░░░░░░░░ they secretly communicate by ░░░░░░░░ of the Alfa Bank ░░░░░░░░ See all this it ░░░░░░░░ total just trutherism It ░░░░░░░░ in the worst way ░░░░░░░░ s just total retardation ░░░░░░░░ whole thing is completely ░░░░░░░░
