Ned Price, the State Department spokesman, attacked a reporter who tried to get him to provide the evidence that the U.S. said it has to support the claim that Russia is planning a false-flag attack to help justify a war with Ukraine.
Matt Lee, the AP reporter, told Price that the U.S.’s allegations seemed to be inching towards “Alex Jones territory.”
“The production of this propaganda video is one of a number of options that the Russian government is developing as a fake pretext to initiate and potentially justify military aggression against Ukraine,” Price said.
“Well, that’s quite a mouthful there,” Lee said. “Well, you’ve made an allegation that they might do that. Have they actually done it?”
Price responded, “What we know, Matt, is what … I have just said. That they have engaged in this activity.”
“What activity?” Lee asked.
Price said it wasn’t the first time “we have made these reports public.”
“What report public?” Lee asked. “You have shown no evidence to confirm that … What is the evidence? I mean, this is like ‘crisis actors,’ really? This is like Alex Jones territory you’re getting into. What evidence do you have to support the idea that there is some propaganda film in the making?”
Price, who has worked as a senior analyst for the Central Intelligence Agency prior to working for the Obama administration, refused to provide any additional information to Lee and asked him if he’d accept a transcript from the actual press conference as evidence. (See “BIDEN PRESIDENCY= OBAMA 2021.”)
“That’s not evidence, that’s you saying it,” Lee said.” I would like to see some proof that … shows that the Russians are doing that.”
“I’m sorry, you don’t like the content,” Price responded. “I’m sorry you are doubting the information that is in the possession of the U.S. government.”
Price announced in 2017 that he was making the difficult decision to resign as National Security Council spokesman during the Trump administration because he could not “in good faith serve this administration as an intelligence professional.”
“I watched in disbelief when, during the third presidential debate, Trump casually cast doubt on the high-confidence conclusion of our 17 intelligence agencies, released that month, that Russia was behind the hacking and release of election-related emails,” he said.
Trump said the “Cyber Hack is far greater in the Fake News Media than in actuality.”
“Russia, Russia, Russia is the priority chant when anything happens because Lamestream is, for mostly financial reasons, petrified of discussing the possibility that it may be China (it may!),” he wrote on Twitter.
Price said later that he and Lee have had their “fair share of sparring sessions.”
TREND FORECAST: That a former CIA operative is the spokesperson for the State Department and it is accepted by both political parties and not condemned by the media, clearly exemplifies who controls America.
Indeed, 5-Star General, Supreme Commander of the Allied forces during World War II, and two term United States President, Dwight D. Eisenhower, warned the American people that the military/industrial complex had taken over the nation in his 17 January 1961 Farewell Address.
And, their power and control is front and center in the State Department, with its CIA front man arrogantly talking down to journalists, and his refusal to provide evidence he claims the government has.
Therefore, without major Freedom, Peace and Justice movements and new political parties in power, the march to wars will continue to be the American Way.
