Yes off record': Series of 'bombshell' texts by ex-Trump staffer hint at secret payoffs
On Thursday, in the midst of the July 4th holiday, a former Donald Trump staffer who worked on his 2016 campaign went public with a series of texts she allegedly made with Trump attorney #Jenna #Ellis asking about secret lawsuit 💥settlements for accusations of "sexual harassment and gender discrimination" 💥within the campaign.
In replies to those texts from attorney A.J. #Delgado, who posted them on-line, Ellis appears to reply, "Yes off record — Boris, The campaign settled multiple lawsuits. Have your investigator contact [campaign staffer] Michael #Glassner. I will of course tell you the truth."
As the Daily Beast's Josh Fiallo wrote, the "bombshell" texts were included in a filing by Delgado as part of a lawsuit she filed against Trump campaign adviser and he supervisor, ⭐️Jason #Miller, whom she has accused of raping her while they were having an affair. ⭐️
According to the report, "As part of that lawsuit, Delgado, a lawyer who’s representing herself, filed a motion Thursday that included a text thread she claims to be between her and Jenna Ellis, another ex-Trump staffer who is a co-defendant in his election subversion case in Georgia."
Ellis pleaded guilty in the Georgia case.
The report adds that the Boris in question appears to be #Boris #Epshteyn, who has been at Trump's side during his courtroom appearances. -
In addition to running Sinclair,
David Smith has used his vast wealth to support a variety of far-right causes.The Baltimore Banner reports that
👉 since 2015, Smith, through his family foundation,
has donated large sums to "Young Americans for Liberty" ($581,000),
"Project Veritas" ($536,000),
"Turning Point USA"
($150,000), and "Moms for Liberty" ($121,000).Meanwhile, News Corp’s cable news properties, Fox News and Fox Business, also helped launder the Wall Street Journal’s attacks on Biden into the news cycle.
According to transcript searches, the WSJ piece’s core claim
that Biden is “slipping”
was brought up at least 64 times on air on Fox News and Fox Business from when the article was published until yesterday afternoon.Online, the WSJ piece has been the focus of at least 15 articles on Fox News’ website,
with many of them treating its dubious claims about Biden’s decline as a demonstrated fact.#Boris #Epshteyn #Sinclair #David #Smith #Rupert #Murdoch #Lachlan #Kevin #McCarthy

A 2018 study published in the American Political Science Review
found that
👉stations purchased by Sinclair
increase "coverage of national politics at the expense of local politics"
👉 and undergo "a significant rightward shift in the ideological slant of coverage."🌟Delivering right-wing attacks on Biden's mental fitness under the guise of "local news" is an extremely powerful tactic. 🌟
While many Americans are distrustful of the national media,
71% believe that local news is accurate,
including 78% of Democrats and 66% of Republicans.This is not the first time Sinclair has exploited Americans' trust in local news to boost Republicans politically.
In 2016, the Trump campaign provided Sinclair stations with extensive access to Trump in exchange for friendly coverage that did not include fact-checking.
🔥"We are here to deliver your message," Smith told Trump 🔥in a 2016 meeting.
In 2017, Sinclair hired #Boris #Epshteyn, who previously served as a Trump advisor and surrogate, as its Chief Political Analyst.
👉Sinclair stations were 💥required 💥to run Epshteyn's political commentary.
"The American people demand change, and they demand action, and that’s exactly what they’ll get from this administration going forward," Epshteyn declared in one piece.
In 2018, 🔥anchors at Sinclair affiliates were forced to read a script warning viewers about "fake stories" being published by other media outlets "to push their own personal bias and agenda." 🔥
The argument mirrored then-president Donald Trump's criticism of the media.

#Epshteyn is *aggressively* using his cell phone, which is #barred in #court. #CourtOfficers who patrol #journalists & others from doing the same aren’t enforcing the restriction on him.
