2017 Washington Post article ADMITS Hillary and DNC "colluded" with Ukraine for op-research!

So, once again, we have a situation where the vast majority of the biggest MSM "news" outlets knew about Hillary Clinton and the DNC working with a foreign govt to get dirt on a republican political rival, in the form of an "investigation" by Ukraine. In the following video, you'll see the Wash Post admit that Hillary had provably done the exact same thing they are now using as ammo for the democrats' ongoing anti-Trump coup attempt. Except that the Wa-Po and other MSM outlets were trying to convince you that there's nothing wrong with receiving 'political help'(dirt, op-research) from Ukraine, because they are our allies!

The "Russia collusion" claims she makes here in this video obviously proved to be baseless, with zero evidence supporting it. But this is a prime example of our corrupt, hopelessly biased "news" media telling you that it's perfectly legal and legit for politicians to collude with allied govt leaders, to dig up dirt on political enemies......... As long as they are democrats! But now that Trump pointed out OBVIOUS conflicts of interest & extortion/blackmail on the part of Joe & Hunter Biden, and suggested that Ukraine officials look into that corruption, these same media outlets are feeding us a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT STANDARD!! Now all the sudden its horribly wrong(for a republican) to receive ANY political help from an ally, despite it being perfectly acceptable to them just 2 years ago! :Oopsie:lamo

The Trump haters would be lost without their hypocrisy.

The video seems to say the opposite of what the OP is saying.

I figured that there would be progressives who would try to spin, or justify this. But it amazes me how some will "choose" to see and hear the exact opposite of reality! Either you didn't actually watch the video, or you are intentionally being deceptive. In this video, the Wa-Po narrator very clearly JUSTIFIES and EXCUSES Hillary's collusion with Ukrainian officials to get dirt on Trump. It's literally the whole point of this reporting in the first place! How you can choose to see the "opposite of that" , is beyond me....

Can imagine a president doing such a thing? :roll:

First, give up your quest to change the meaning of the word coup.
It's a perfectly serviceable word to describe an illegal or violent overthrow of a govt.
The definition of the word coup explicitly excludes use of the rule of law to remove a politician from his office.

And C, the video reports that the stuff Clinton got from the Ukraine was information which was in publicly available documents.
AfaIct, examining publicly available documents is entirely different from secretly asking a govt to open an investigation.
ymmv


Are you able to make the distinction between examining publicly available documents and asking a govt to open a new investigation?
Can you name even one or two difference between these two things?

I'm not surprised that a regressive wouldn't understand the main point of a video he posted. The video went to great length's to explain the difference between the Clinton and Trump campaign dealings with Ukraine...but apparently it flew right over your head. Whoooooooooooooosh!!!

It's rare that an OP is so thoroughly debunked so early in the thread. (The video not only doesn't support the OP, it comes to the opposite conclusion.)

The next thing we'll see is Trump admitting to impeachable offenses right on TV.

Whenever I hear or see the words "fact check" I settle in for a heaping helping of opinion dressed up as cherry picked facts and innuendo. I am seldom disappointed.
