Anyone other than me notice there are trolls here who seem to need to lie as their stock in trade?
The Coup Against Truth — Paul Craig Roberts

The Coup Against Truth
Paul Craig Roberts
Jon Rappoport’s mocking of the US presstitutes is superb:
“Vladimir Putin is the secret president of the United States.
“Yep. That’s it. The US is now the USSR. It’s all over. Trump is a Communist who took orders from Putin. Trump is a Red. That was his game all along. He’s a billionaire Commie.”
Ridicule is effective, and nothing deserves ridicule more than the Washington Post, New York, Times, CNN, and the rest of the presstitutes who pretend to be real journalists. But as I have emphasized, and other real journalists, such as Glenn Greenwald (see, for example, https://theintercept.com/2017/01/04/washpost-is-richly-rewarded-for-false-news-about-russia-threat-while-public-is-deceived/ and https://theintercept.com/2016/11/26/washington-post-disgracefully-promotes-a-mccarthyite-blacklist-from-a-new-hidden-and-very-shady-group/ ) imply, the fake news recklessly promoted by the presstitutes brings with it the threat of thermo-nuclear war.
For several years Russia and her president have experienced endless demonization. The Russians know that Georgia’s invasion of South Ossetia (done while Putin was at the Beijing Olympics) was a Washington provocation. The Russians know that Washington’s coup in Ukraine (done while Putin was at the Sochi Olympics) was a provocation aimed at seizing Russia’s Black Sea naval base in Crimea and cutting Russia off from the Mediterranean. The Russians know that Washington knows that the charges that Russia hacked Hillary’s emails and the US presidential election are lies. The Russians know that the “Russian threat” created by Washington is a lie along with all of its permutations, such as an impending Russian invasion of Poland and the Baltics. The Russians understand that US ABM bases on Russia’s borders are provocations, as are NATO military exercises on Russia’s borders and in the Black Sea. You can add to this list on your own.
The lies are ubiquitous, have grown more absurd, and are now institutionalized in the US government in the CIA, executive branch agencies, and among many US senators and representatives. That these lies are validated by endless media repetitions throughout the Western world are viewed by Russia as indications that Western populations are being prepared for a military attack on Russia. Putin has warned publicly on many occasions that the Western propaganda is dangerously destabilizing. Yet, as he also notes, no one hears his warnings.
Washington is so intent on its anti-Russian propaganda that Congress has passed, and Obama has signed, an intelligence bill that contains a section, Title V, that authorizes active measures to counter purveyors of false news. These purveyors are alternative media websites, such as this one, that challenge the official lies. The truthful alternative media is accused of being under Russian influence. Last summer a website shrouded in secrecy was created that recently posted a list of 200 websites alleged to be under Russian influence, either directly or indirectly. The Washington Post irresponsibly published a long article endorsing the fake news of 200 websites working for the Russian government.
In other words, the suppression of the truth is the last defense of the corrupt American ruling establishment. During the last 24 years three Washington regimes have murdered millions of peoples in nine or more countries along with US civil liberty. To cover up these vast crimes, unparalleled in history, the presstitutes have lied, slandered, and libeled.
And the Washington criminal regime holds itself up to the world as the indispensable protector of democracy, human rights, truth, and justice. As the Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman said recently, what makes America exceptional is the use of might in the service of evil.
Washington brands not only its opponents but all who speak the truth “Russian agents,” hoping that the demonization of Russia has sufficiently frightened the population that Americans will turn their backs to those who speak the truth.
It would seem obvious even to the insouciant that an establishment that has gone so far out on a limb that the CIA director publicly attributes the election of Donald Trump to Russian interference but is unable to produce a shred of evidence—indeed in the face of totally conclusive evidence to the contrary—is determined to hold on to power at all costs.
The CIA’s open, blatant, and unprecedented propaganda attack against a president-elect has caused Trump to throw down the gauntlet to CIA director John Brennan. There are reports that Trump intends to revamp and reorganize the intelligence agency. The last president who said this, John F. Kennedy, was murdered by the CIA before he could strike against them. Kennedy believed that he could not take on the CIA until he was re-elected. The delay gave the CIA time to arrange his assassination.
Trump appears to understand his danger. He has announced that he intends to supplement his Secret Service protection (which was turned against JFK) with private security.
Isn’t it striking? The president of Russia states publicly that Washington is driving the world to thermo-nuclear war and that his warnings are ignored. The president-elect of the United States is under full-scale attack from the CIA and knows that he cannot trust his official security force. One might think that these extraordinary topics would be the only ones under discussion. But you can find such discussion only on a few alternative media websites, such as this one, branded by PropOrNot and the Washington Post as “under Russian influence.”

yes,,, there always have been,,, they are called liberals
A very insightful article as the OP and we get this waste of electrons.
You play the "L" word like a card player would lay down a joker.
What a joke--if you think you've said anything of substance. Your post is a waste of your own time--and the readers time here.
How about putting just a little thought into your reply? Start with giving this group your definition of "liberals"--with some examples that illustrate your definition.
Is your intention to be a conversation stopper?
Jan 8, 2017 12:26:25 #
How about "you" putting thought into your posts,,, and identify "when" a liberal has actually "had" a conversation or is interested in the real "truth".
There is nothing of substance about liberalism,,,, that IS the joke,,,,, you are a waste of time,,,,, and I have tried,, but I still deal with morons like you.....

The OP contentions stand unrefuted. Re-read the original post to grasp the fullness ... the truth about the coup against the truth.
Psycho-troll Ve'hoe continues to waste our time. Ve'hoe seems to think that name calling alone is sufficient rebuttal.
Perhaps psycho-troll Ve'hoe equates taking a stand for the truth as a fault inherent in 'liberals'?
A email message to me just arrived: For those of you who are not familiar with Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, he is an American economist, journalist, blogger and former civil servant.
He reached the height of his government career when he became the United States Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Economic Policy under President Reagan in 1981.
I think that by now all of you who receive my emails know better than to trust the main stream media for anything other than a report on the Thanksgiving day parade.
I think you will find his article "The Coup Against Truth" most interesting.

HAHHAHHAHAHAHHAA,, another pretentious, yet stupid liberal, claims victory, over a mistaken point that "liberals" are the purveyors of truth....

It isnt the problem, that you think you know the truth, it is that you think the truth is true,,, BECAUSE you thought it,,,,,,,, and you missed the whole point of the article,,,,,, because youre a liberal and stupid
