Put this into two files. (1) The confirmation file that it’s “always about the money;” and (2) The ‘things that make other things’ suddenly make sense file. Also, I wouldn’t suggest doing much with this, other than making a mental note for y’all deep weeds walkers; after all, we are not much fun at partisan parties when we don’t pretend the corruption gig is one-sided.
Readers here will know well that since the beginning of this year I have asked what’s going on with conservative media and this sudden pro-Qatar stuff they’ve been pushing. [Tucker example and more here]
Well, apparently long before the White House announced a historic ‘first ever’ trip to Qatar, the Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani began telling their lobbyists in DC to reach out to conservative media influencers with lucrative payments to shape a favorable pro-Qatar narrative.
[STORY HERE] “Tucker Carlson was far from Qatar’s only target in its quest to influence conservative media. Established right-of-center outlets like Fox News Digital, Just The News, the New York Post, the Daily Mail, and the Washington Examiner were all targeted to varying degrees by Qatari foreign agents in the months following Trump’s election, records show.”
Things certainly make a lot more sense now. As the saying goes, “it tracks.”
That said, if Qatar had a media strategy to enhance a foreign policy agenda with the Trump administration, well, that wouldn’t be a surprise; it’s just how things are done. However, in the background of the puzzling question about how those decades of outlines of Qatar being correctly called out for corruption disappear, well, it appears the Qataris just paid to disappear them. Go figure.
DISCLAIMER: Qatar has blocked the Conservative Treehouse ever since we published the two-year investigative piece called “The Benghazi Brief.” Even U.S. military stationed at the Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar cannot access CTH without using a VPN.
