Tibs posted a joke front page of a defunct magazine. The magazine shut down in early 2016. That is where Tibs is right now - fake news from a closed magazine.
Russia, Russia, Russia, Manafort, money-laundering, Russia, Putin, aaaaaaagh.
Uhhh, Clinton actually engaged in highly suspicious activity by accepting millions of dollars from interested parties and nations to the "Clinton Foundation," and by having her hubby paid a massive speaking fee by Russia while simultaneously negotiating a very large deal with a company owned by the Russian government. No problem, says Tibs, fake news. Except the NYT says otherwise:
The headline on the website Pravda trumpeted President Vladimir V. Putin’s latest coup, its nationalistic fervor recalling an era when its precursor served as the official mouthpiece of the Kremlin: “Russian Nuclear Energy Conquers the World.” The article, in January 2013, detailed how the Russian atomic energy agency, Rosatom, had taken over a Canadian company with uranium-mining stakes stretching from Central Asia to the American West. The deal made Rosatom one of the world’s largest uranium producers and brought Mr. Putin closer to his goal of controlling much of the global uranium supply chain.
But the untold story behind that story is one that involves not just the Russian president, but also a former American president and a woman who would like to be the next one. At the heart of the tale are several men, leaders of the Canadian mining industry, who have been major donors to the charitable endeavors of former President Bill Clinton and his family. Members of that group built, financed and eventually sold off to the Russians a company that would become known as Uranium One.
Beyond mines in Kazakhstan that are among the most lucrative in the world, the sale gave the Russians control of one-fifth of all uranium production capacity in the United States. Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for national security, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of United States government agencies. Among the agencies that eventually signed off was the State Department, then headed by Mr. Clinton’s wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton.
As the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation. Uranium One’s chairman used his family foundation to make four donations totaling $2.35 million. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons, despite an agreement Mrs. Clinton had struck with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors. Other people with ties to the company made donations as well.
And shortly after the Russians announced their intention to acquire a majority stake in Uranium One, Mr. Clinton received $500,000 for a Moscow speech from a Russian investment bank with links to theKremlin that was promoting Uranium One stock. At the time, both Rosatom and the United States government made promises intended to ease concerns about ceding control of the company’s assets to the Russians. Those promises have been repeatedly broken, records show.
The New York Times’s examination of the Uranium One deal is based on dozens of interviews, as well as a review of public records and securities filings in Canada, Russia and the United States. Some of the connections between Uranium One and the Clinton Foundation were unearthed by Peter Schweizer, a former fellow at the right-leaning Hoover Institution and author of the forthcoming book “Clinton Cash.” Mr. Schweizer provided a preview of material in the book to The Times, which scrutinized his information and built upon it with its own reporting.

Tibs' response? "Fake news, stop reading Breitbart." Uhhh, yeah, except it's the New York Times. Direct evidence of shady deals, lies, hiding information, non-disclosure, and using the government for financial self-interest. But not a whit of concern by the left.
And voter fraud? Direct, irrefutable evidence of financial shenanigans and corruption of the DNC, once again involving the Clintons, to rig a primary. Freaking rig it and direct the outcome. The left's response? "Oh, fake news, and it's not illegal anyway." What about use of the DNC fundraising machine to guide money to the Clinton campaign, very likely illegally? The left's response, "Who cares? Why are you guys obsessed with Hillary??"
So a suggestion. How about you direct a little of your Trump-rage at those we KNOW were skirting the rules, lying, hiding, and corrupting the 2016 election?
