The White Home’s “new media” squad is clinging to yet one more conspiracy concept.
Throughout a press briefing Monday, Liam Cosgrove, a reporter for the far-right weblog ZeroHedge, requested press secretary Karoline Leavitt to handle a concept claiming that numerous deaths have been secretly linked to Invoice and Hillary Clinton.
“Trump posted to Truth Social a video highlighting what most people call the ‘Clinton body count,’” he stated.
Doubling down, Cosgrove stated that there was a “unusual variety of suicides that appear to occur in circles” surrounding the Clinton household.
He then pointed to President Donald Trump’s erratic Reality Social habits over the weekend, when he posted a video captioned, “THE VIDEO HILLARY CLINTON DOES NOT WANT YOU TO SEE,” linking her to the loss of life of John F. Kennedy Jr.
To make issues worse, Cosgrove additionally confidently referred to as the loss of life of Jeffrey Epstein the “most famous Clinton-related death” earlier than asking when extra of the Epstein Recordsdata could be launched.
“I know the attorney general has committed to releasing those files. I would defer you to the Department of Justice on her timeline. But, when she’s made a promise in the past, she has kept it, and I’m certain that she will in this case as well,” Leavitt stated.
Proper-wing conspiracy theorist Jack Posobiec maintain up a duplicate of the “Epstein Files” supplied by the White Home.
However Cosgrove isn’t the one far-right voice infiltrating press briefings to spout insane conspiracy theories.
Since welcoming “reporters” who’re linked to accepting cash from Russia, the White Home briefing room has been an echo chamber of racist theories on immigration and different insane concepts.
And whereas the White Home claims it needed extra journalists who signify U.S. voters, it appears to be pushing out centrist media altogether.
Solely time will inform how Trump’s “new media” will influence how on a regular basis Individuals keep knowledgeable.
