MS NOW apologized for reporting that Patel was in Russia. Cynical me wonders if those anonymous sources were put up to "leaking" false information just to build a case against MS NOW. I really don't trust this admin. Then there was the Patel tweet, "From Russia, with love."

If I were cynical, I'd say this was helpful to anyone in UK govt wanting to push discussion on future relations with EU straight to re-accession, given the perils of rule-taking under any other model

@repgregstanton.bsky.social @gallego.senate.gov @captmarkkelly.bsky.social Is this what you wanted? Or was it just a cynical grab for "conservative" votes you were never going to get in the first place? /Rhetorical.

Yeah, but you just know she’s just seen the writing on the wall and will attempt to lead a “sensible” Republican comeback. She doing this so when Trump goes down she will attempt to rise up. Call me cynical. I mean…I agree but her motives are sus.

None. They all invoke spectacular effects which are not predicted by science, which can be used by propagandists to undermine support by cynical reference to exaggeration.
