A veteran Associated Press writer named Matt Lee had State Department spokesman Ned Price flustered on Thursday after he pressed the government mouthpiece on alleged evidence of Russian plans to stage a false-flag against Ukraine.
During the press briefing, Price claimed Moscow could be seeking to engage in a “false-flag operation in order to initiate military activity,” in Ukraine.
Next, the government spokesperson said a Russian “propaganda video” caused the U.S. government concern.
This video allegedly includes, “graphic scenes, false explosions and corpses,” “crisis actors pretending to be mourners” and “images of destroyed locations or military equipment” on the ground in Ukraine.
After this announcement, AP writer Matt Lee asked Price to elaborate on what actions Russia might take.
Price referred back to the supposed propaganda video the American government has viewed, and claimed Russia positioned operatives in Ukraine a few weeks ago with hopes to conduct a false-flag.
Lee said, “That’s an action you say they have taken, but you have shown no evidence to confirm that.”
“I mean, this is, like, crisis actors, really? This is like, Alex Jones territory you’re getting into now. What evidence do you have to support the idea that there is some propaganda film in the making?” Lee asked.
Next, Price oddly claimed the evidence has already been declassified, and when Lee asked where it had been declassified at, he said, “I just delivered it.”
“No, you made a series of allegations and statements… That’s not evidence Ned, that’s you saying it,” Lee responded.
Again, Lee asked for proof that shows Russians are planning on staging a false-flag.
Explaining to Price why he’s pushing back against the government’s flimsy allegations, Lee said, “I remember WND’s in Iraq. I remember that Kabul is not going to fall. I remember a lot of things.”
“So, where is the declassified information other than you coming out here and saying it?” Lee asked.
Failing to answer, Price condescendingly told Lee, “I’m sorry you are doubting the information that is in the possession of the U.S. government.”
Becoming increasingly frustrated, Lee asked, “What is the evidence that you have that suggests that the Russians are even planning this? I’m not saying they’re not, but you just come out and say this and expect us to believe it without you showing a shred of evidence that is actually true other than when I ask, ‘What’s the information?’ you say, ‘I just gave it to you,’ which was just you making a statement.”
Price responded by suggesting Lee go on doubting the credibility of the U.S. government and “find solace” in information the Russians are putting out.
This frustrating exchange was a bad sign for U.S. foreign policy going forward as the Biden administration is clearly up to something fishy.
Matt Lee isn’t the only one who remembers government lies that dragged Americans into unnecessary wars that resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths.
In fact, Alex Jones, who Lee referred to in the exchange, has been on the forefront of exposing false-flag operations and government lies for decades.
