    Multiple reports on this, and frankly, if it had been some rando site and not Newsweek, I’d have pulled it by now.

    The complaints are correct: Source is Russian media, the recording can’t be verified, it’s just as likely the whole thing is a hoax as it’s not.

    I’d add… Clinton isn’t a candidate, it doesn’t matter what she may have asked for or not.

    But as this is coming from a major US news source (who needs to do better!) I’ll allow it.

    Newsweek cannot independently verify the authenticity of the latest recording by the pair shared on the platform Rumble, or whether it has been digitally manipulated.

    Then why the fuck are you reporting about it if you can’t factually source your information?

      Because it’s Newsweek. It has not been a source of journalism for many years. It’s a clickbait tabloid that uses generative AI to write articles. It should 1000% be banned from this sub.

      Because people will believe it regardless of whether it’s been confirmed or not and they have an agenda to push and money to make…

        Ding ding ding. Whether or not it’s real is entirely irrelevant, because the damage is already done; Half of the voters will believe it regardless, even if it is later debunked as 100% fake.

    Junk article based on rumors.

      Funny how nobody said that when the news was claiming the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation

        The laptop which was claimed to be chock full of crimes and child porn? Where exactly are those charges?

          I’d like to know the same. At least they charged him with the gun crime and tax crimes thanks to the laptop and his books

    Its laughable that you’d have to look for it. He wears his dirt on his sleeve and it doesn’t matter apparently.

      All the dirt apparently only helps him to look big and strong in the eyes of the MAGA crowd.

    An obvious MAGA lie to fake whataboutism.
    Republicans truly are the enemy of Democracy. Destroying it with lies gaslighting and oppression.
    USA is losing the information age.

      Yeah they are. They’re letting the president decide what questions he gets asked and they’ve been lying about his mental decline for years now
