This morning, when I first saw this clip on CNN, I did a double take because I thought I heard McCabe about to say something very, very interesting, but he pulled back. Watch this and also read the quote:
“I was speaking to the man who had just … won the election for the presidency and who might have done so with the aid of the government of Russia." Former FBI acting director Andrew McCabe, Sunday on 60 Minutes. https://t.co/IVwcM11BGc pic.twitter.com/m6HwHMOqY9— 60 Minutes (@60Minutes) February 14, 2019
There is potentially something very, very heavy in that ellipsis. Here's that quote, with captioning:
OK, so far, nothing strange. But check out the next caption:
Listen to the clip at that moment...
What's missing is what's in the dash between the "and"s. Specifically, a syllable.
Listen again... "and chea -- and won...."
I'm pretty sure what he was about to say was: "I was speaking to the man who had just run for the presidency and CHEATED..."
I heard that when I heard it live, and nothing I'm seeing or hearing is making me hear it any differently.
The FBI leadership from 2016 believes Trump actively stole the election. I think the cat's out of the bag.
Am I wrong?
You're not wrong.
ReplyDeleteYou’re not wrong. But it goes much deeper than trump. The majority of the Republican Party were deep in the conspiracy.
ReplyDeleteI can sure hear it, though I didn't before you pointed it out. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Yastreblyansky commented on my shitty blog!
DeleteHence, lending to the credence of a reality television presidency. Everyone can see this for what it is. The question is, "Why has it gone this far?" It's not so much about a stolen election, but about a corrupt & broken Democratic system. Where is the special investigation for that?
