 State Department tried to discredit reporters, Republican pol over conservative blacklist

The State Department sought to denigrate two reporters and a member of Congress as part of damage control attempts over having helped fund an advertisers’ “blacklist” of The Post and other outlets allegedly spreading “misinformation,” according to internal documents.

In March 2023, the department distributed press guidance about how to counter bombshell reports by “Twitter Files” scribe Matt Taibbi and Washington Examiner investigative journalist Gabe Kaminsky concerning the State’s Global Engagement Center (GEC).

I WANT AN HONEST TRUTHFUL INQUISITIVE COMPETENT PRESIDENT! This is a call to ACTION! Thumbnail is a Giant Heart. Share Thumb up and Speak Up..this is our chance to get TRUTH...Post this everywhere on Truth Social and X etc...post about mudfossils EVERYWHERE. I am perplexed about the minds of people and belief systems. Some say Faith is all you need but faith in what? I say we start with the Truth about our past which will cause Academia distress because it shows them wrong on many levels so they will not let Mudfossils be seen in any Journals or Articles because the publishers would become the target of Academia...same as what happened to "Worlds in Collision" by Velikovsky. 11 weeks #1 on NY Times best seller list and Academics forced the publisher to recall the books.
