Disgraced former Mueller hitman Andrew Weissmann, the very architect of the debunked Russia collusion hoax that wasted millions of taxpayer dollars and smeared a duly elected president, is now out there wanting to criminalize your speech while promoting a terrifying new book against Trump.
In a chilling new podcast appearance with fellow leftist operative Joyce Vance, Weissmann laid out his terrifying new vision for America: criminalizing what the government deems to be “political lies.”
And guess whose “lies” he’s laser-focused on? President Donald Trump’s claims about the rigged 2020 election, of course.
Because for Weissman, questioning election integrity is the real crime, not the weaponized witch hunts, the two-tiered “justice” system, or the endless hoaxes used to try to destroy a political opponent.
During the segment, Weissmann whines about “rampant political lying,” citing The Washington Post’s infamous (and wildly inflated) tally of 30,000 “lies” during Trump’s first term.
He even chuckled when Sarah Longwell said it seemed “a little low.” But notice what he conveniently forgets: the real big lie was the Russia collusion hoax itself, a fabricated scandal cooked up by Hillary Clinton’s campaign, peddled by the FBI, and weaponized by Weissmann and his cronies in the Mueller team to delegitimize Trump’s 2016 victory.
Andrew Weissmann: “What I’ve started thinking about… is why is it that there are lies in so many ways in this country that we either criminalize or subject to civil penalties, but we don’t do that for politicians who lie or candidates who lie?… The big lie in my book that I use as the example is the 2020 election was stolen… There’s no proof of that.”
