Unbelievable .. Washington Post STANDS BY its reporting and says Pulitzer board concluded Trump-Russia stories were NOT 'discredited' - as calls grow for awards to be swiped after Durham report

 

A Radical Left-wing Trump-bashing newspaper has refused to return its 2018 Pulitzer Prize over the now-debunked theory that the ex-president conspired with Russia.

The Washington Post and New York Times picked up the most-vaunted award in American journalism for its 'deeply sourced, relentlessly reported coverage.' That turned out to be a unmitigated lie!

But the DC-based outlet, which is bankrolled by Democrat-donating Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos, insists it will not give up its National Reporting honor. 

'The Post stands by its reporting,' a Washington Post spokeswoman brazenly said.

She cited a 2022 review by the Pulitzer board that said no elements of those stories 'were discredited by facts that emerged subsequent to the conferral of the prizes.'

The calls follow an investigation by Special Counsel John Durham that trashed the the FBI's probe into allegations of collusion between Trump and Russia.

'Neither US law enforcement nor the Intelligence Community appears to have possessed any actual evidence of collusion in their holdings at the commencement of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation,' the report said.

But Erik Wemple, the Washington Post's media critic, has repeatedly slammed liberal outlets that ran stories based on a dossier by ex-British spy Christopher Steele.

The journalist's columns hit out at the 'flimsiness' of Steele's allegations that claimed there was a long-running conspiracy between Trump and the Kremlin.

Wemple's main targets were the left-leaning news networks CNN and MSNBC that breathlessly reported bogus allegations of Trump's lewd behavior in a Moscow hotel.

Many of the Post's stories focused on Trump campaign staffers, including ex-National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, making contact with Russian officials. 

The New York Times failed to respond to this outlet's queries as to whether the newspaper stood by all of its so-called 'Russiagate' reporting.

DailyMail.com understands that many of those outlets that broke those exclusives were working closely together on the story.

'If Americans saw how this sausage was made, they would be appalled,' said one source familiar with how the media reported the collusion claims.

It comes as Republican lawmakers demand both newspapers return the prizes over what they have branded a 'witchhunt.'

 Trump loyalist Lindsey Graham, a Congressman representing South Carolina, told Fox News that both publications should hand back the honors.  

'I think the Pulitzer Prize given to the Washington Post and New York Times should be taken back,' he told the U.S. news network. 

'The entire episode was politically-motivated crap. That is not something you should get a Pulitzer Prize for,' the 67-year-old added.

Senator Ted Cruz of Texas slammed the self-styled papers of record 'for breathlessly spreading these "Russia, Russia, Russia" lies.'

Damning report That the FBI/CIA Partnered in Shocking Conspiracy & Actively Meddled in Election trying to pick the president regardless of the wishes of 130 million voters.

 

You don’t have to read all of special counsel John Durham’s report to get to the heart of the matter: On the third page of the executive summary, he writes: “The speed and manner in which the FBI opened and investigated Crossfire Hurricane during the presidential election season based on raw, unanalyzed, and uncorroborated intelligence also reflected a noticeable departure from how it approached prior matters involving possible attempted foreign election interference plans aimed at the Clinton campaign.” 

There you have it, the final verdict on the 2016 presidential election: A corrupt FBI tried to rig the outcome by favoring one candidate over the other.

Thank God it failed, but not before Republican Donald Trump and others on his team got smeared in a vicious probe while Democrat Hillary Clinton and her team got free passes on several issues that potentially involved criminal conduct.

That’s the bottom line and everything else is detail.

Damning report

Durham’s damning conclusion must never be forgotten.

We now know, without doubt, that Barack Obama’s Justice Department and officials from other parts of the government meddled in the election and tried to pick the president regardless of the wishes of 130 million voters. 

Obama knew what was going on and so did his vice president, Joe Biden.

That, too, is now settled forever.

The Bochur Who Found 130,000 Shekel At Bus Stop and returned it to a Chilonie

 The following is the letter from the Chilonie on Israeli Social Media, I loosely translated it 

"I forgot a bag containing 130,000 shekels in cash near a bus stop in Haifa

I came back after about half an hour completely giving up on ever finding  it again

There sat the guy in the picture

And he asked me if he could help me, I told him the story and he tells me this: 

I came here 25 minutes ago and I saw the bag, I opened it and I see quite a sum of money, I told myself that I'm waiting here for fifteen minutes, and if the guy doesn't come, I'll put a note with a cell phone number to get me. I said a chapter of Tehillim so that the guy that lost it would come quickly and it wasn't even 10 minutes and you are here now, just give me signs that it is yours and I will run to daven.

I told him a few signs and he handed me the money without missing a single bill.

Until the moment I finished counting, I didn't believe it was with me and that I would find it at all 

{I was so  anti-Haredi, but no longer} I wanted to give him a nice sum as a reward , but he absolutely refused; He said it was his mitzvah.

I couldn't leave him until I took a photograph  of him ..."

 Yes, there should be more such people in the world

Church in Hartford Says There Was A Huge "mofeis" They Only Had a "few wafers, and suddenly G-d sent them many"

Growing up I thought that only "rebbelich" performed "moifsim" miracles, now I see that even "galachim" priests can perform them.

I need to find out from this "galich" how he does it, because in our home in Beit Shemesh, we always run out of wafers. I wonder if he could do this with pretzels as well. 

Rebbelich should pay attention to this story. This "moifis" will multiply "shrayim" so that all can have some, even those who are not hungry!

 The Vatican is reviewing claims of a “miracle” at a Catholic church in Connecticut after parishioners reported that Communion hosts mysteriously multiplied at a March Mass.

The Archdiocese of Hartford investigated the claims at St. Thomas Catholic Church in Thomaston and is now sending the results to the Holy See in Rome, the Harford Courant reported last week.

The reported miracle occurred at a March 5 Mass, when a parishioner assisting with Communion reported that there was a shortage of hosts — wafers used during the ritual to symbolize the body of Jesus Christ — only to then find there were plenty.

“God has duplicated himself in the ciborium,” said the Rev. Joseph Crowley, who oversees the congregation, referring to the type of container used to hold the hosts. “It’s really, really cool when God does these things, and it’s really, really cool when we realize what he’s done.”

After the incident, Hartford Archbishop Leonard Blair told reporters he appointed a priest well-versed in church law to look into the reported miracle.

The bishop said he would decide whether to involve the Vatican.

David Elliott, a spokesman for the Archdiocese, told the Courant that “reports such as the alleged miracle in Thomaston require referral to the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith in Rome.”

The Dicastery, the oldest department of the Roman Curia, was founded to defend the Catholic Church from heresy, according to the Vatican.

“The Archdiocese has proceeded accordingly, and will await a response in due time,” Elliott said.

But Michael O’Neill, an author and radio host known as “The Miracle Hunter,” said the Connecticut church might have a hard time qualifying the multiplying wafers as a genuine miracle.

“I’d be highly surprised that they were able to have enough evidence to declare it a true eucharistic miracle,” he told the Courant.

“I’m guessing they have the testimony of numerous people who would have been able to say that they saw something and understood that this had to have been miraculous,” he said.

“So I’m guessing they’re caught in the middle a little bit not having the hard evidence but having good testimony,” O’Neill added. “So they’re looking for some guidance from the Vatican.”

Haaretz's Sick Headline: “Killing Children Brings Israelis Together”

 

Most people have ceased to be surprised by the content published by the self-hating Jews at the leftist Haaretz newspaper but one of its articles in its English-speaking edition during Operation Shield and Arrow was particularly shocking.

An opinion article by Yossi Klein published on Thursday was entitled: Killing Children Brings Israelis Together. In the article, Klein claims that the killing of Gazan children in Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip is a deliberate act by the Israeli government and the IDF. Why? He claims that the purpose is to frighten the Palestinians, bring happiness to Israelis and provide a sense of unity to the country in the wake of the divisive judicial reform protests.

The article was slammed in a Ynet opinion article by Alon Goldstein, the VP of content at Yediot Achronot, who wrote that apart from the vileness of the article’s lies, the English Haaretz website fails to publish a single word of criticism against Gazan terror groups for launching rockets at innocent Israel civilians, including children.

King Charles To Visit Israel

 Preparations are underway for newly-crowned King Charles of England to become the first British sovereign to visit the Holy Land, British media reported on Sunday.

“The preparation has been done by his team to pave the way for this visit,” said Conservative peer Lord Polak according to the Daily Mail. “There is no doubt that Charles will be the one to break this pattern,” he said.

Lord Polak served as director of Conservative Friends of Israel for more than 25 years.

Charles is also likely to visit the Palestinian territories in an effort to avoid causing controversy, the British tabloid reported.

He traveled to Israel in a private capacity three times before he took the throne.

Prince William made an official trip to Israel and the Palestinian territories in 2018.

Charles’s mother, Elizabeth II, never came to Israel during her 70-year reign due to concern it would upset the Arab world.

Israel’s President Isaac Herzog has been personally involved in lobbying the king to visit, but the threat of Palestinian rocket attacks from Gaza was a “stumbling block” to setting a date, the paper reported.

Charles is already set to visit Kenya later this year, the country where his mother was notified she became queen after the death of her father, Charles VI, in 1952.
