Exposing the Dark Truth of Our World

Washington Post-CIA connections: back to basics

There are now hundreds of supposed “facts” which prove Russia influenced the 2016 US election. I thought I’d go back to a few basics…

“The CIA says” is never a great way to start a sentence. But that’s one basis of the charge that Russia “hacked” the US presidential election.

Members of Congress were secretly briefed by the CIA on “the Russian affair,” and media, led by the Washington Post, ran with the story that Russia influenced the US election on the side of Trump.

Major media outlets are happy to cite the CIA as an authority—conveniently ignoring the fact that people in the intelligence field are taught to lie. It’s their stock in trade.

You might remember the Washington Post’s role in defaming and destroying Gary Webb, who, in 1996, published a series of articles in the Mercury News about the CIA seeding black Los Angeles neighborhoods with crack cocaine. The Post basically asked the CIA whether the charge was true, and when the Agency denied it, the Post attacked Webb as a “fake news” reporter. The same Washington Post led the campaign to tie the Russian government to Hillary Clinton’s defeat. And the Post, once again, used unproven statements from the CIA to back up their claim.

I could go on and on about the Post and its historic CIA ties. But now, right now, the owner of the Post is Jeff Bezos, who also owns Amazon. And Amazon has a $600 million contract to provide the CIA cloud computing services.

Boom.

Ordinarily, that would be called a fatal conflict of interest, whenever the Post opens up its yap about the CIA in any context.

However, mainstream news outlets, the very big ones, don’t go around criticizing each other’s ownerships; so the Bezos-CIA relationship is conveniently ignored.

An honest lead paragraph on Russia-CIA-Trump allegations in the Post, however, would start this way:

“Our paper is owned by Jeff Bezos, and Jeff is making $600 million to provide the CIA with computing services, so take everything below with a grain of salt the size of Langley.”

Going one step further, Amazon and the CIA are both in the data-collecting business. What are the chances that Amazon, in the interest of “national security,” has been sharing its massive customer data with the CIA and other US intelligence agencies?

This should lead to another conflict-of-interest statement from the Washington Post: “As you read any article in our paper, keep in mind that our owner may be data-mining you and passing the information to the CIA. Have a nice day.”

Am I being too hard on Amazon? Do they have the basic guts to stand up to the intelligence community and resist its demands? Here is what author Norman Solomon had to say about that in 2014 (Huffington Post):

“Amazon’s trajectory into the CIA’s spooky arms may be a bit more than just corporate eagerness to land a lucrative contract. In late 2010 — amid intense public interest in documents that WikiLeaks was posting to illuminate U.S. actions overseas — Amazon took a notable step. As the Guardian reported at the time, Amazon ‘pulled the plug on hosting the whistleblowing website in reaction to heavy political pressure.’

“It didn’t take much for Amazon to cave. ‘The company announced it was cutting WikiLeaks off … only 24 hours after being contacted by the staff of Joe Lieberman, chairman of the Senate’s committee on homeland security,’ the Guardian noted.”

Let’s see. In 2010, Amazon cuts off WikiLeaks, proving its willingness to cave to the intelligence community.

In 2013, Jeff Bezos, the owner of Amazon, buys the Washington Post.

In 2016, during the presidential campaign, WikiLeaks releases tons of email data exposing Hillary Clinton, the Democratic National Committee, and associated players.

In 2016, after Clinton loses, the CIA—now Amazon’s business partner, and by extension, the Washington Post’s business partner—tells the Post that Russia influenced the election on behalf of Trump, and also implies/asserts that Russian hackers supplied WikiLeaks with those tons of email data…

And the Washington Post accepts what its business partner, the CIA, is saying at face value and then leads the charge to blame Russia for handing the election to Trump.

The Post doubles down and absurdly accuses numerous sites and blogs of being a) “fake” and b) conscious or unconscious dupes of the Russian government.

A nice neat package.

Who exactly is the fake news outlet?

  1. You are absolutely right Jon.
    Cloud is amazing in that you don’t have to put out much to get group services.
    Sharing a bed with apple pie & mom honest people like Private Gomer Pyle, you are guaranteed a safe sleep.
    Sharing a bed with the CIA invites a nightmare.

    WOLF STREET – Global Digital Bank Robbers Feast on Latin America by Don Quijones.
    *****$12 million vanished – the $20 million vanished & who knows how much more.

    WHODUNNIT …. well golly – nobody knows !!!

    Speculate:
    Yep – no 1 guess as to WHODUNNIT is … the US & ISRAEL … no 2 guess Russia … no 3 guess CHINA … no 4 guess Transnational Organized Crime Syndicates.

    by now these fearless & footloose online bank robbers may have robbed every bank on planet Earth – as easy as $1 million here – $1 million there.
    AND NO ONE HAS DISCOVERED THAT THEY HAVE BEEN ROBBED YET.

    You speak the whole truth KEMOSABE JON !!

  2. AND … you know how they tell us that they can trace your every move …
    They have no idea where the millions went – ZIT / ZERO ideas what happened to the money – it just vanished into thin air man.

  3. My Guess as to how the Global Digital Bank Robbers are able to access secure territories is …
    Step 1: they send in a Machine Learning Software Program to map the layout of the banks system & discovery /a look see where & what kind of money is present.
    Step 2: they decide what to steal.
    Step 3: they set up an escape route.
    Step 4: they set up a delete & an automatic shut door behind them,
    Step 5: they set up a destination for the stolen money.

    Corporations, businesses, even the nickle & dime store is vulnerable if connected correctly.
    It is the ultimate slap in the face to the whole system.
