Hollywood lost its collective mind during the Donald Trump era.
Liberals in the industry became completely deranged in their attempts to explain Hillary Clinton’s defeat in 2016.
But one liberal comedian made a jaw-dropping statement about Hillary Clinton.
Donald Trump’s presidency was undermined by the Russiagate hoax orchestrated by the deep state.
There’s also mounting evidence that Hillary Clinton potentially played a significant role in fomenting the Russiagate witch hunt.
Almost nobody on the Left is willing to say this, but comedian Russell Brand is not one of those people.
Brand, who has leftist economic leanings, has been outspoken about the corruption of the Democrat Media Complex and the deep state.
In light of the recent news that attorney Michael Sussmann was indicted by special counsel John Durham for lying to the FBI about his association with Clinton, Brand ranted on the topic in a video titled: “So…Trump was RIGHT About Clinton & Russia Collusion!!”
Brand said:
“It seems like years ago that we were hearing that Trump was colluding with Russia, that he wouldn’t have won the election without Russia, that his whole presidency was kind of a Putin plot…[W]e have to recollect just how prevalent this story was. Every late-night talk-show, all over the news, it was just — you were bombarded with it…And it was like, being sort of in a way discussed as if it was just an absolute fact. To discover that this was propaganda, a construct, a confection by the Democratic Party — who, of course, are now in government — is kind of beyond disappointing, because you begin to question and query what other things may not be true.”
Brand’s epiphany is similar to the ones other former liberals have had.
They believed in the institutions that run American society, but those institutions have destroyed their credibility on one issue after another.
Brand added:
“Once you recognize that people create certain truths in order to meet certain ends and aims, the idea that you might be able to trust their integrity obviously dissolves.”
Brand is entirely correct.
The past 18 months have shown politicians and public health officials will lie, manipulate, and obscure in order to accrue as much power as possible.
Brand has also commented on the tyranny of the COVID regime forcing people to get the vaccine against their will.
Thus far, Sussmann’s indictment represents the second person charged with a crime as a result of Durham’s investigation.
Former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith pleaded guilty to falsifying documents to the FISA court in order to justify spying on the Trump campaign.
Clinesmith received a slap on the wrist and avoided prison time.
But the willful deceit of Sussmann and Clinesmith shows just how far the deep state was willing to go in order to derail Trump’s presidency.
