President Donald Trump’s eldest son on Monday promoted a conspiracy that originated with the anti-secrecy website WikiLeaks.

The tweet linked to an article published on the conservative Daily Wire website, which claimed that an email released by WikiLeaks on Sunday night was “proof” that the New York Times “colluded” with the State Department in 2010.

The NY Times exposes the Australian connection, so now it has to be included into the conspiracy.

 In 2016, the NYT poo-pooed Russiagate while portraying Hillary's emails as criminal, even thought Hillary's use of a private email server broke no rules.

The NYT enabled Trump and the Russians to spread their propaganda against Hillary, all in a misguided attempt at looking "balanced." They even breathlessly ran excerpts from that pure GOP progaganda tome, Clinton Cash, as a "New York Times Exclusive," giving those lies legitimacy.
