I was responding to @Sanguine's challenging my state of mind.  Read the conversation before you get in my face.

Tell her to stop stalking me.  @Mod2

Ummm, YOU pinged me, not the other way around.  You're just upset because I pointed out the lunacy of your position.

You're damned right.

Were you in a coma during the Obama presidency?

When those rotten SOBs pay for their crimes and treason, talk to me about moral equivalence. 

Until then... I want to know who they talk to and what they say.  Even if it's to their cat or dog.

So... you're admitting that you are in the "It's ok as long as it's our side that's doing it" crowd?   Slippery slope.... to put it mildly.  Since.... it's inevitable that the other side will regain power eventually.  (duh)

No argument that it's a slippery slope.  Wear proper footwear

I simply want to use the same tools available to and utilized by them.

Maybe I should be paying attention to this ridiculous story, as I had no idea Carlos Danger II had implicated the Saudis.
Naah, still don't care.

Saudis deny involvement with National Enquirer-Bezos ‘blackmail’ plot
By Mark Moore
February 10, 2019 | 10:11am

Saudi Arabia’s minister of foreign affairs firmly denied the kingdom had anything to do with the owner of the National Enquirer threatening to publish nude pictures and salacious text messages from Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos.

“This sounds to me like a soap opera,” Adel Al-Jubeir told CBS’ “Face the Nation” in an interview that aired Sunday. “Maybe some of our citizens read The National Enquirer then they’re in the United States … but that’s it.”

Bezos, the world’s richest person, blew the lid off an attempt by American Media Inc., the parent company of the National Enquirer, to threaten to release to the public selfies and messages Bezos exchanged with former TV anchor Lauren Sanchez, with whom he was having an affair.

“Several days ago, an AMI leader advised us that Mr. Pecker is ‘apoplectic’ about our investigation,” Bezos wrote last week in a blog post on Medium, referring to AMI CEO David Pecker. “For reasons still to be better understood, the Saudi angle seems to hit a particularly sensitive nerve.” ...

OK, but they initially said Khashoggi left the consulate unharmed and changed the story many times after it was proven they were lying. So, their credibility is practically non-existent.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Brother of Lauren Sanchez reportedly is source of Bezos' leaked texts, photos
Mike Snider
20 hrs ago

The brother of Lauren Sanchez, the former Los Angeles news anchor who has a romantic relationship with Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, reportedly leaked the couple's embarrassing texts and photos to the National Enquirer.

Multiple persons inside American Media Inc., the Enquirer's parent company, said Michael Sanchez was the source of the texts, The Daily Beast reported. Another person who has "been in extensive communication" with AMI execs also confirmed that Sanchez had supplied the texts to the Enquirer, the news site reported.

American Media Inc. declined comment to The Daily Beast on the story. Michael Sanchez declined to respond when "asked directly more than a half-dozen times whether or not he supplied the texts," the site said.

Michael Sanchez, who has denied leaking the texts, on Fox News' "MediaBuzz" Sunday criticized the strategy of Gavin de Becker, the security expert Bezos has hired to investigate how the Enquirer got hold of his text messages. ...

Thus proving.... that despite Bezos's vast wealth.... under the skin, he's just another paranoid leftie... blaming all of his ills on Trump ("government entity").  I think it's hilarious.

As of today.  The girlfriend had shared e-mail, texts and photos with others.  And her entire computer had been downloaded to another computer as a backup.  I need to find that article.  It seems Bezos may have stuffed this up all on his own.

Bezos' girlfriend shared his texts, photos with friends before Enquirer leak
Fox News, Feb 12, 2019, Howard Kurtz

Jeff Bezos' girlfriend has privately acknowledged that she shared some photos and texts from the Amazon founder with several female friends, adding to the mystery of who leaked salacious material to the National Enquirer, according to a source close to the couple.

In addition, the girlfriend, television personality Lauren Sanchez, also had the contents of her computer downloaded onto her assistant's computer for safekeeping, according to the source.

It could not be determined whether any of the material that Sanchez shared with friends was sexually explicit. But it casts the probe in a new light at a time when Bezos, who owns The Washington Post, is accusing the Enquirer's parent company of trying to blackmail him over still-unpublished nude photos and intimate texts.

The firm, American Media Inc., owned by President Trump's friend David Pecker, has insisted that it obtained the Bezos texts and pictures lawfully.
