When it comes to the January 6 witch hunt, the corporate-controlled media is doing their best to be the dutiful lapdogs Democrats have come to expect.
But they never expected one of their Big Government allies would destroy their house of cards.
And warmonger John Bolton just did exactly that when he argued that January 6 was NOT a “coup” by casually admitting to war crimes.
Things get a little heated on CNN
On Tuesday’s edition of CNN’s The Lead, host Jake Tapper and former National Security Advisor turned CNN commentator John Bolton got into a bit of a back-and-forth over whether the events of January 6, 2021 amounted to a “coup.”
Predictably, Tapper took the position of Democrats, claiming that January 6 was undoubtedly a super sophisticated “coup” coordinated by former President Donald Trump and his supporters.
The self-proclaimed “journalist” suggested that by January 2021, President Trump had fired everyone who would ever dare to tell him “no” or disagree with his opinion, until he had turned the White House into “this group of misfits” who’d happily go along with his worst impulses.
Also predictably, John Bolton responded by claiming that when it comes to Trump’s “personal advantage, he’s not capable of hearing “no,” and that absolutely nothing he’s done since the 2020 Presidential election can or should be defended.
“I think it’s also important to understand, while nothing Donald Trump did after the election in connection with the lie about the election fraud, none of it is defensible,” Bolton claimed. “None of it is defensible.”
However, Bolton then went on to argue that January 6 was definitely NOT a planned “coup,” because in his view, that’s just “not the way Donald Trump does things.”
The former National Security Advisor explained that Trump does everything on the fly, jumping from one plan to the next, rather than rigorously following a long thought-out strategy.
“He’s — to use a ‘Star Wars’ metaphor — a disturbance in the force,” Bolton suggested while saying that the former President was just looking out for his own interests and January 6 just happened. “It’s not an attack on our democracy. It’s Donald Trump looking out for Donald Trump. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence.”
Tapper couldn’t allow Bolton to pretty much accurately describe exactly how January 6 most likely occurred, though, and immediately jumped in to redirect the conversation to Democrat talking points.
“I don’t know that I agree with you, to be fair with all due respect,” the CNN host said. “One doesn’t have to be brilliant to attempt a coup.”
And that’s when the fireworks truly went off.
Because rather than tip-toeing around it, John Bolton pulled out his trump card – no pun intended – and made one of the most shocking public admissions in recent memory.
Did he just say what he clearly just said?
Bolton argued, on national television no less, that January 6 was definitely NOT the sophisticated, coordinated “coup” Democrats and their allies in the corporate-controlled media have claimed because he himself has planned plenty of actual coups d’etat and this was no “coup.”
“I disagree with that,” Bolton said in response to Tapper’s claim that anyone can orchestrate a coup d’etat. “As somebody who has helped plan coups d’etat – not here, but other places – it takes a lot of work. And that’s not what [Trump] did. It was just stumbling around from one idea to another.”
It doesn’t get any more straightforward than that – John Bolton just admitted on live, national television that he has personally planned coups in other countries.
Obviously, it’s not new information that the United States government loves nothing more than to be the world’s police and orchestrate a good ol’ regime change every now and again.
But the fact that a former National Security advisor is outright admitting that he personally helped plan plenty of coups is downright unbelievable.
At the end of the day, though, as much as this type of on-the-record admission should move the American people to finally put enough pressure on their elected officials to throw warmongering scumbags like John Bolton out of government, it just won’t.
The United States government’s worst kept secret is the fact that it operates as a shadow world government, pulling all the strings behind the scenes, moving human beings around like disposable chess pieces, and ultimately causing many of the issues people face here at home and abroad.
People like John Bolton belong in jail.
Yet they’re still paraded out by CNN and others as somehow virtuous “public servants.”
If that doesn’t tell you everything about the state of the nation – and more specifically, the corporate-controlled media – nothing ever will.
