Why is it Okay to Talk About Trump/Russia w/No Evidence, but Seth Rich is not ok?

....somehow not a matter to be discussed?

I'm not talking about on here, of course. I'm talking about the media. For example, last night Sean Hannity said something like "I serve at the pleasure of Fox News." Later, he signed off by saying, "I hope to see you again tomorrow night." Of course that was after he said that he would back off talking about the Seth Rich murder case "for now." Obviously, Hannity was given a choice between his paycheck or continuing to speak out.

And, it isn't just Hannity. We keep hearing the media saying that this matter should not be discussed because it's hurting the Rich family. When has the media ever made a claim like that before? Did the media ever say, "Out of respect for Darren Wilson's family, let's not convict him until we see all the evidence." No, the media ran with the false narrative of "Hands up, don't shoot" for 6 months. So did Obama & the DOJ. When Wilson's account of the situation was corroborated, did the media or the Obama Administration even bother to apologize? NO.

My point is, neither the media or the DNC give a damn about Seth Rich's family. This is nothing but an excuse. I know the "left of center" people here won't give a damn about this, but you should. This type of censorship & suppression has hit an all-time high (low). Some may not care, given the matter being suppressed this time, but next time it could be different.

Right. Keep repeating this and maybe one day it will become true.

You guess which is which. In one "scandal" you have the heads of every major intelligence operation in America weighing in. In the other "scandal" you have Kim Dotcom saying "trust me."

Can you guess which is which? Do they sound equivalent to you?

Funny how that works isn't it.

You have the heads of our intelligence confirming to evidence of collusion and it still doesn't matter to those idiots.

One scandal is being heavily investigated by all of our intelligence agencies.

The other is being backed by a fat guy on the internet.

Not hard to understand the difference.

Especially when the only reason there is no evidence in the Seth Rich assassination is because they've been covering it up.

What do you mean there's no evidence of Trump/Russia? The Russian government committed felonies to try to get Trump elected

Multiple members of the Trump administration have lied about conversations with Russian diplomats. Multiple members of the Trump administration have financial ties to Russia. Trump may have tried to impede an investigation into connections between Trump's campaign and Russia. Any member of the public who says that they know that Trump and Russia colluded is full of shite right now because there's no public proof. But there are three seperate investigations right now. We will see if anything comes up.

There's absolutely nothing to the tragic murder of Seth Rich that would tie it to the DNC or Clinton. It doesn't even follow logically. You think a professional assassin would've left him alive on the streets of D.C.? If Rich had been in contact with Wikileaks you don't think Assange would be tripping over himself to show proof? It's ludicrous.

Well you see the media all of a sudden has developed a conscience and doesn't want to hurt anyone's feelings, or it could be because they're fricking hacks and are worried about the DNC's image taking another hit. I'm sure it's the former not the latter. We all know how much compassion the left has.

Because sent it as much as you like there is evidence Russia tampered with our election.

There is also evidence people close to trump were involved with Russia and were lying about it

This should be fully investigated not necessarily to implicate trump but to see who was there involved and how.


There is ZERO evidence - not a single shred - supporting this stupid Seth rich fantasy

So, you're saying those leftist libtards at Fox News are "suppressing" a valid news story?

The only thing being "suppressed" here is Sean Hannity completely making shite up out of thin air and feeding it to the monkeys as real news. Apparently, even Fox News has some principles and would like to keep whatever tiny crumbs of credibility it has.

Actually, Seth Rich's family has asked for you Trumpkins to stop spreading total lies and unfounded rumors. But you go ahead and continue to cause this family untold grief.

Trump/Russia w/No Evidence,


Trump campaign advisor and later national security advisor, Michael Flynn, was on the payroll of the Russians and lied about it on multiple occasions, including some on penalty of perjury. That's evidence.

Trump campaign advisor Carter Page had meetings with Russian intelligence officers as far back as 2013 and with Russian officials during 2016 campaign and lied about it. That's evidence.

Trump's then campaign advisor, now Attorney General, Jeff Sessions, had meetings with Russian officials during the campaign and lied about it while under oath during his confirmation hearings. That's evidence.

Even if you claim there was nothing improper about meeting with Russian officials, if everything was on the up-and-up, why did all three of them lie about it, two of them either under oath or on penalty of perjury?
