Elise Amendola / AP. In The Wake Of WMD-Liar Curveball’s Videotaped Confession, Colin Powell Was Demanding To Know Why Nobody Warned Him About Curveball’s Unreliability. The Trouble Is, They Did. Can you imagine having an opportunity to address the United Nations Security Council about a matter of great global importance, with all the world’s media watching, and using it to… well, to make shit up – to lie with a […]

Sigurdur Thordarson, a key witness for the FBI against Julian Assange, has been jailed in Iceland. The notorious alleged hacker and convicted pedophile was remanded to custody in Iceland’s highest security prison, Litla Hraun, on September 24. Þórðarson´s lawyer, Húnbogi J. Andersen, confirms that he is in custody. Thordarson was given immunity by the FBI in exchange for testimony against Julian Assange. Thordarson was arrested the same […]

The coup leader, Colonel Mamady Doumbouya, has claimed that he will put an end to the corruption and human rights abuses committed under the rule of ousted president Alpha Conde, whom he had served as a henchman. However, his close links to the US and France indicate other motives behind the coup. Over a week after the coup in Guinea was orchestrated by a US-trained military unit, the military junta that […]

However, he is said to be asymptomatic. Cristiano Ronaldo and the Italian Sports Minister have locked horns over whether the Juventus superstar breeched Rome’s Covid-19 safety protocols after testing positive for the virus. Vincenzo Spadafora said recently that the 35-year-old Ronaldo may have broken Italy’s health rules by flying back into the county from Portugal after testing positive for Covid-19 earlier on this week.

…by Jonas E. Alexis, VT Editor Rafael Grossi is the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). He is not an Iranian sympathizer. But when he was asked the question about how long it would take Iran to build nuclear weapons, Grossi indirectly deconstructed the entire Israeli machination by saying: “In the IAEA we do not talk about breakout time. We look at the significant quantity, the minimum amount of enriched uranium or plutonium needed to make an atomic bomb. Iran does not have this significant quantity at the moment.”[1] Think about the magnitude of the statement for a moment. […]
Long before The New York Times began its review of the reporting in her critically acclaimed podcast, the paper was aware of deep concerns about star correspondent Rukmini Callimachi’s work, including from the family of James Foley, the American journalist brutally killed by ISIS in 2014. “She left our family with a lot of pain from her un-professionalism and lies,” James’ brother Michael Foley told The Daily Beast in an email. Last Friday, Canadian law enforcement arrested Shehroze Chaudhry, a 25-year-old Canadian man who claimed for years that he had worked as an executioner in the Islamic State. Chaudhry became a […]
According to the head of the UK’s Armed Forces, General Sir Nick Carter, “Russia is spreading lies about COVID vaccines” in an effort to destabilise countries across the world and added that this is a propaganda tactic that reflects a strategy of “political warfare”. Political commentator George Szamuely has weighed in on whether these were typical unfounded Russophobic sentiments as well as on the prospect of a Russian vaccine in an interview with Sputnik. Sputnik: The UK’s Military Chief, General Sir Nick Carter has accused Russia of sowing disinformation about coronavirus vaccines he called it pro-Russian vaccine politics “and said it […]
Shepard Smith’s new CNBC show is called simply The News. And with that in mind, the former Fox News anchor is trying his best to play everything right down the middle. Ahead of his premiere this Wednesday, Smith appeared on his new network colleague Jimmy Fallon’s Tonight Show, where he offered up a series of non-committal, both-sides takes on the biggest news events of the week. Smith got in one joke about Donald Trump writing off $70,000 in hairstyling expenses but otherwise said he didn’t expect the bombshell report on the president’s tax returns to change any voters’ minds. He similarly […]

US Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden on Saturday compared incumbent President Donald Trump with the notorious Nazi propaganda minister, Joseph Goebbels, when interviewed by MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle. “I’m not sure anybody hasn’t already made up their mind they’re for Trump. But who knows. He’s sort of like Goebbels. You say the lie long enough, keep repeating it, repeating it, repeating […]

More than 4.6 million acres have burned in the states of California, Oregon and Washington. Skies are colored orange and red, the air is unbreathable, […]
When Fox News isn’t running cover for President Donald Trump in the wake of his disastrous comments to Rage author Bob Woodward, they are—at least in this instance—attempting to give their viewers the facts. On Thursday’s edition of Special Report, Fox anchor Bret Baier interviewed both Biden national press secretary TJ Ducklo and Trump campaign spokesperson Tim Murtaugh about Trump’s intentional efforts to downplay the severity of the coronavirus pandemic back in February and March. Murtaugh began his defense of Trump by attacking his counterpart on the Biden campaign for failing to articulate what exactly Biden would have done differently if […]
Colleagues of George Washington University history professor Jessica Krug have called for her to resign after the prestigious school was forced to stop short of firing her for pretending to be black throughout her academic career. “The discipline of history is concerned with truth telling about the past,” members of GWU’s history faculty said Friday in a joint statement. “With her conduct, Dr. Krug has raised questions about the veracity of her own research and teaching.” The statement called for Krug to resign from her position as an associate professor or to be stripped of her tenure and fired if she […]
Let’s Tell Lies… By Jorge Arreaza Montserrat, Venezuelan Ministry of Popular Power for Foreign Relations.

By Jose Luis Magana for AP. In the Spanish-speaking world, there is a very peculiar children’s song: “Let’s Tell Lies”. Through the hilarious repetition of verses and a catchy melody, there is a succession of absurd situations that delight children. Comedy is an exercise where reality is alienated so that laughter is achieved. The song made us remember what […]
In a Pennsylvania campaign speech, Joe Biden touched on his energy plan which will not include the banning of fracking, despite past promises to end the controversial practice. Briefly touching on his energy plan if elected president in November, Biden had folks scratching their heads when he promised that he would not ban fracking. The former vice president used the moment to slam President Donald Trump by saying the idea that he would ban the controversial practice is a “lie” from his opponent. “I am not banning fracking. Let me say that again: I am not banning fracking. No matter how […]
Daniel Dale can talk at the speed of light—the light he tries to shed on the multiplying mendacities, prevarications and deceptions of Donald J. Trump. On the final night of the Republican National Convention, CNN’s resident fact-checker barely stopped to breathe as he enumerated the falsehoods uttered by the 45th president in his 70-minute speech accepting his party’s nomination. “Anderson, this president is a serial liar, and he serially lied tonight,” Dale told anchor Anderson Cooper, and then—over the course of three dizzying minutes—ticked off 21 instances of Trump assaulting the truth, everything from his erroneous claims that Joe Biden wants […]
The largely maskless crowd on the South Lawn of the White House for President Trump’s speech accepting the Republican nomination happened to number about the same as the new COVID-19 cases that day in the state with one of the highest infection rates. Iowa reported a record 1,289 new cases on Thursday. But any comparison between that and the 1,000 plus supporters arrayed before Trump was not one he would have wanted anybody to make. He was busy diverting attention from the pandemic while talking about crime, declaring that America’s most dangerous cities in that regard are run by Democrats. “Nobody […]
“I don’t know what’s going on, but I’ve got chills, I’ve got nausea,” Stephen Colbert told viewers at the top of his last live show of the week Thursday night. “It’s either the onset of COVID or seeing 1,500 people with no social distancing, no masks or testing packed on to the South Lawn of the White House. I know Republicans like voter suppression, I didn’t know they kicked it up to voter extinction.” While The Late Show host admitted that he skipped the third night of the Republican National Convention out of disgust for the GOP’s constant lies, he did […]
On Monday, Pakistan’s Mission to the UN released a statement by Ambassador Munir Akram accusing India of terrorism. It also noted alleged human rights violations in Jammu and Kashmir. Pakistan has attempted to raise the Kashmir issue for discussion at the UNSC thrice since the abrogation of Article 370 in August 2019. The Indian Mission to the UN has slammed Pakistan for its statement on Threats to International Peace and Security to the Security Council, rejecting it as “five big lies”. India pointed out that the statement Munir Akram gave at the United Nations Security Council was false, as the session was […]
On Tuesday Victor Davis Hanson went on with Tucker Carlson to discuss the kickoff of the Democrat Party Virtual National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. On Monday Michelle Obama attacked President Trump and played the race card in her much anticipated DNC speech. Victor Davis Hanson destroyed Michelle and her outrageous speech on Tuesday night. VDH: I think the commone themes that you outlined Tucker are one, they say these things that are not true whether it’s Michelle Obama talking about black lives being indiscriminately being killed on the street or Andrew Cuomo with the worst record about the virus and then […]
On the first morning of the 2020 Democratic National Convention, Trump campaign spokesperson Hogan Gidley went on Fox News in an attempt to reframe the race between the president and Joe Biden. It didn’t go as planned. Host Sandra Smith asked Gidley the same question Trump was asked on Fox & Friends earlier on Monday about the biggest differences between the two candidates. While the president talked about “energy,” “fracking,” and the stock market, Gidley tried to take a broader approach. “The beauty about this campaign is you don’t have to guess how things would look under either person because they’ve […]

Maybe this time Carter Page will receive justice. Page sued Huffington Post and Yahoo today for their campaign of lies against him for supposedly being a Russian spy. A charge that the biased gang from the Mueller Special Investigation couldn’t even prove. Law and Crime reported today: Carter Page, a former foreign policy adviser to the 2016 campaign of President Donald Trump, on Monday filed a new lawsuit against Oath, Inc., the corporate parent of Yahoo! News and the Huffington Post. The suit, filed in Delaware, names the same defendants and makes similar claims to a suit Page filed in federal […]
The mainstream media doesn’t care about the truth – they only care about promoting liberal lies and lunacy in order to place and keep liberals in power. The Trump-Russia collusion scandal is just another excellent example of this. The MSM clearly doesn’t care about the truth. The major media outlets are constantly pushing lies and liberal gaarbage to further the power of those opposed to America and the American way of life. The Trump – Russia collusion scandal is a case in point. Legal scholar Jonathan Turley made this point over the weekend in an oped at The Hill entitled: More […]
On Sunday night, John Oliver kicked off the latest edition of his acclaimed late-night show Last Week Tonight by addressing the ongoing brutalizing of Black Lives Matter protesters by Trump’s federal agents in Portland, Oregon. “The protests in Portland have actually been going on daily for nearly two months now, since the killing of George Floyd,” said Oliver. “But the deployment of federal agents was a sharp escalation of questionable legality, and yet, to hear the president tell it, he had no choice and it was a terrific idea.” Yes, in a press conference with reporters, Trump announced, “We’re doing a […]
On Sunday we reported that the Primary Sub-Source (PSS) for the Steele dossier was Igor Danchenko – the individual behind most of the made up lies in the Steele dossier. Danchenko is the one individual those looking into the Trump – Russia collusion fraud were after – the PSS – the individual who was behind the material amount of Steele dossier lies. At least two sources on the Internet had come to this conclusion by Sunday night. One site that located the PSS is aptly named https://ifoundthepss.blogspot.com/2020/07/unmistakable-proof.html (We’ll refer to this individual and website as IFTPSS.) IFTPSS provided information on the […]
On a day where President Donald Trump tried to stick to his script in a return to coronavirus briefings, he still managed to mangle his messaging by lying about his mask use and wishing an accused sex trafficker well. Appearing solo without the burden of fact purveyors like doctors and experts, Trump initially read stiltedly from a paper in front of him, telling assembled reporters about the importance of masks and social distances following months of ignoring or deriding both practices. “I have the mask right here, I carry it. And I will use it gladly, no problem with it,” Trump […]
Singer Madonna has boasted about an unpaid “one million dollar fine,” which she says the Russian government slapped her with for speaking in favor of gay rights at a concert. The only problem is, the story is completely false. “I made this speech in St. Petersburg eight years ago,” the musician posted to her social media this week. Included was footage from the 2012 concert where she says “gay people, here and around the world” deserve the “same rights” as everyone else. “I was fined one million dollars by The government for supporting the Gay community. I never paid,” she proudly […]

She immediately called Kesha Davalos Grijalva, Mackleen Grijalva’s wife, and told her what the officer said. After calling the jail a second time, an officer confirmed that Mackleen Grijalva was going to be deported […]

In lieu of mocking President Donald Trump’s embarrassing rally attendance in Tulsa or continuing his war on the “racist” Fox News troll Tucker Carlson, John Oliver kicked off the latest edition of Last Week Tonight by addressing the COVID-19 pandemic sweeping the nation. The numbers are at record highs nationwide, including in red states like Arizona, Florida, and Texas that were quick to flout social-distancing rules and reopen. “The U.S. is now setting records for daily new cases as the virus surges around the country, which makes it both startling—and frankly, infuriating—that on Friday, the vice president made this declaration,” offered […]
By Andre Vltchek for VT Lying about world history is one of the main weapons of the Western imperialists, through which they are managing to maintain their control of the world. European and North American countries are inventing and spreading a twisted narrative about almost all essential historic events, be they colonialism, crusades, or genocides committed by the Western expansionism in all corners of the globe. One of the vilest fabrications has been those which were unleashed against the young Soviet Union, a country that emerged from the ruins of the civil war fueled by the European, North American, and […]

During this week leading up to President Donald Trump’s big campaign rally in Tulsa, Vice President Mike Pence not only lied to reporters about the COVID-19 situation on the ground in Oklahoma, he also urged governors to spread those lies to the residents of their states. “Trump is, in his own way, breathtakingly dumb,” Seth Meyers said Wednesday night. “But the rest of his administration is just as committed to this coronavirus cover-up as he is, even if they manage to be a little more subtle about it.” That brought the Late Night host to Pence, who told governors this week […]

It’s probably no coincidence that three major crypto firms – Coinbase, Genesis Trading and BitGo – have almost simultaneously announced plans to become prime brokers, a kind of fixer when it comes to financing and facilitating trades for institutional investors. This type of vertical integration happens in every business, whether that’s Amazon running the internet or Coinbase trying to own the crypto space. Given the long road of the last couple of years, it’s maybe surprising there hasn’t been more M&A activity in the blockchain world. The big news this week was Coinbase’s acquisition of trading technology and execution platform Tagomi. […]
Guest post by Larry C. Johnson I want to help the average citizen understand how egregious and dishonest the Mueller team was in bringing charges against Michael Flynn for lying to FBI agents about what he said to Russia’s Ambassador in a telephone conversation, which was likely intercepted by the CIA. Michael Flynn did not do a damn thing wrong in that conversation and the notes from FBI agents Strzok and Pientka, which Sidney Powell finally pried loose after more than two years of the prosecutors hiding exculpatory evidence, do not support the Statement of Offense. I suspect most of you […]
