Former Obama official, Evelyn Farkas has come under heavy fire for her March 2nd appearance on MSNBC where she admitted to having a lot of knowledge on the surveillance of Trump and his team. She is now in damage control mode and her nervousness is causing her to make some odd statements.

Evelyn Farkas appeared on MSNBC to defend herself, claiming the recent stories about her knowledge of Trump being wiretapped is fake news and perhaps the Russians are behind it. We are officially in the twilight zone, folks.

Farkas: “..dark campaign of fake news you know that’s still ongoing. We see um even someone like myself get swept up in all of this…you know when people like me are speaking on behalf of process, people spin it to uh suit their needs and I think maybe the Russians may be behind such fake news today.” There’s a total distortion about what I said…I was outside of government. I had no access to intelligence on this whatsoever, but I was concerned because I knew how the Russians operate and I was reading these reports about them hacking into the elections then giving the information to Wikipedia.”

Wikipedia? Try Wikileaks…ok she may have misspoken there, but Russians are spreading fake news stories about her? Sorry to break it to you Evelyn, but we aren’t Russians here at TGP.

The Democrats are such an embarrassment with their obsession with Russia all of a sudden. Yes, we should definitely have our eye on Russia, but to blame them day in and day out for EVERYTHING is pathetic.
