In
a story that is getting more surreal by the minute, a post on 4Chan now claims
that the infamous "golden showers" scene in the unverified 35-page
dossier, allegedly compiled by a British intelligence officer, was a hoax and
fabricated by a member of the chatboard as "fanfiction", then sent to
Rick Wilson, who proceeded to send it to the CIA, which then put it in their
official classified intelligence report on the election.
Here is 4Chan's explanation of
how the story came to light:
>/pol/acks
mailed fanfiction to anti-trump pundit Rick Wilson about Trump making people
piss on a bed obama slept in.
(Watchman comment: the dummy) he thought it
was real and gave it to the CIA.
the central
intelligence agency of the united states of america put this in their official
classified intelligence report on russian involvement in the election.
donald trump
and obama have both read this pol/acks fanfiction.
the cia has
concluded that the russian plans to blackmail trump with this story we made up.
just let that sink
in what we have become.
On
january 10, Buzzfeed posted a story under the byline of Ken Bensinger, Mark
Schoofs and Miriam elder titled “these reports Allege Trump Has Deep Ties To
Russia” and posted a link to a document alleging, among other things, that Russia has been cultivating trump for 5+ years, that trump has been in constant
contact with the kremlin for information on his opponents, and perhaps most
inflammatory, that there are many recorded instances of blackmail of trump in
sexual misconduct. A prominent claim is that trump rented the presidential
suite of the Ritz Carlton Hotel in moscow, where he knew that the Obamas had
slept in; he them hired a number of prostitutes to perform a 'golden shower'
(pissplay) on the bed and in the room. https://www.buzzfeed.com/kenbensinger/these-reports-allege-trump-has-dee...https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/3259984/Trump-Intelligence-Al...
Noted
#nevertrump voice Rick Wilson later commented on twitter, stating that the
report “gave a new meaning to Wikileaks” (https://twitter.com/TheRickWilson/status/818982395202379777)
and that the report was the reason everybody was fighting so hard against the
election of Trump. (https://twitter.com/TheRickWilson/status/818983514335047680)
The
remarkable thing? It's all fake. And not only fake; it's a prank perpetuated by
4chan, on Rick Wilson himself. A post on 4chan on october 26 stated “mfw
managed to convince CTR and certain (((journalists))) on Twitter there'll be an
October surprise on Trump this Friday” along with a picture of a smug face with
a hash name. http://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/94704894/#94705224
4chan trolled Rick Wilson with the Trump piss story back in November 2016. Media or CIA added Russian spies themselves. THIS IS NOT A DRILL.
on
november 1, a person without a picture but is assumed to be the same person
posted “So they took what I told Rick Wilson and added a Russian spy angle to
it. They still believe it. Guys, they're truly fucking desperate - there's no
remaining Trump scandal that's credible.” https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/95568919/#95571329
on
january 10, moments after the story broke and began to gain traction on social
media, a person with the same smug grin face, and the same hash title for the
picture, stated “I didn't think they'd take it so far.” http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/106514445#p106520376
This story has taken on something of a
life of it's own. Going through Rick Wilson's twitter, you can find many
different stories from the time that he had shown the story to a wide number of
anti-trump news sources, trying to find a news organization that would actually
publish the story. During that time period, he referred to it often as 'the
thing', and often playing coy with followers on the content with the story with
anybody who was not also a #Nevertrumper. Unconfirmed sources has people as
high up as John McCain giving the story to FBI Director James Comey to attempt
to verify the story. Given that Rick Wilson runs in Establishment circles, it
is not an impossible scenario that long-serving senators are falling for what
amounts to a 4chan troll trump supporter creating an ironic October Surprise
out of whole cloth to punk a GOPe pundit who derogatorily referred to them as
single men who masturbate to anime.
While this entire
incident is laughable, and even more so because the 4Chan account is accurate, what
makes it quite tragic, is that it is no longer possible to dismiss the
"fake news" angle to an intelligence report. And if the CIA is
compromised, what is left for "news outlets" like CNN and BuzzFeed,
which were all too eager to run with the story without any attempt at
verification?
