Mehmet Oz has been a foreign asset for his entire career.

This thread ⬇️ 😬

Mehmet Oz has been a foreign asset for his entire career.

He did ads for Cambridge Analytica, shares business partners with Mike Flynn, and is close to Erdogan — who paid Flynn $530k before the 2016 election. His sister Seval works with Flynn pal Bijan Kian.

1. Am noticing some Erdogan/Turkey influencing our elections

Way back in early 2013 Putin & Erdogan's push for the grand prize ownership of the Somali oil reserves, largest in the world.
They needed a mole in the US Legislative body. And they arranged it.

All I can say here on that matter out of Minnesota.

10. I'd say it in a moment, how it came to be & who brought it...

Unfortunately, it's not allowed here.
There is a current call for it's investigation, so perhaps it'll find it's way to the public, however.

Point being, Erdogen had his own opportunistic US meddling happening on one front, while Putin was coming from another direction.

That Biden is our sitting President, is a miraculous saving grace for this country.
Which also explains the multi-State extreme gerrymandering.
The fair voting in that 2020 election was probably the only area the coup failed to secure, before the Nov 2020.
They missed that one, & voters did their part.

They've since secured their vulnerable voter districts, so they won't make that error next election!

didn't ever know he was more like Donald Trump.





for bringing this to our attention. there's gotta be others who had no clue.

I sure hope the hell this gets the attention it should have before this next election.

4. That someone posts something on Twitter doesn't make it true

and it trivializes what foreign asset actually means. The guy is of Turkish descent. Advertising for Turkish tourism doesn't make him a Turkish asset. An asset works for a foreign intelligence service. Oz has a stupid TV show.

One can oppose someone politically without inventing stuff like this, and it is invention. This is asking to a hearing something in the schoolyard and then saying it is true.

SMH

He runs a pedophile ring out of a pizza place too. Better put those "facts" on Twitter.

I happen to think the truth matters, and that it's not necessary to invent claims to defeat someone. I'm sure there are plenty of actual reasons to see that Oz never serves in government.

17. The fact is he did an ad for a Turkish airline

that does not make him a foreign asset. George Clooney did an ad for Kirin Beer. Does that make him a foreign asset of Japan?



It's like the boy who cried wolf. If people star claim anyone they oppose is a foreign asset, or anyone born outside the US, what happens when there is a real foreign influence, as in the case of Trump?

After the Trump years. He was just a guy with a stupid teevee show, too.

We must not let that happen again.

15. Honestly, the years of backdoor manipulation by foreign adversaries slowly making their move is 😬

Erdogan & Putin, no less. Explains why stooge Trump was selected to lead the USA.
Ugh!

This & the developing story on Erdogan, Putin & the quest dominance in the vast Somali oil reserves, just emphasizes this overreach by a shit like Erdogan.

How many more are seeing a coup on our legislative body as a win, like Erdogan & Putin et al.

I cannot wrap my head around the notion that the corporate media goes out of their way to promote and enable all manner of charlatans and gets away with it because the public eats it up as entertainment.

ugh.
