Trump Calls On Pulitzer Board to Revoke Prizes for ‘Russia Collusion’ Reporting
 Jonathan Davis October 3, 2021

Former President Donald Trump is calling on the Pulitzer board to revoke prizes awarded for so-called “Russian collusion” reporting in 2018 because the allegations proved to be false.

In particular, Trump noted in a statement Sunday morning to Bud Kliment, the interim administrator of the awards, that prizes awarded to The New York Times and Washington Post should be rescinded because they were handed out under the guise of “false reporting.”

The panel awarded the prizes under the realm of “National Reporting,” but Trump said the series of stories published by both papers had been based on “false reporting of a non-existent link between the Kremlin and the Trump Campaign.”

“As has been widely publicized, the coverage was no more than a politically motivated farce which attempted to spin a false narrative that my campaign supposedly colluded with Russia despite a complete lack of evidence underpinning this allegation,” the former president said in a letter to Kliment.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Did the Pulitzer board ever yank Walter Duranty's Pulitzer Prize?

According to W'pedia, Duranty's Pullet Surprise for covering up Stalin's government-organized starvation of 5 or 10 million people in Ukraine was not withdrawn. It's a safe bet that Trump's request will also be declined, if not simply ignored.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

The story was excellent and award winning. Just because it was false doesn't matter. /s

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
