Benny Johnson, a right-wing podcaster, is among the new media figures who enjoy rare access to the Trump administration in exchange for their promotion of the White House’s agenda to millions of online followers. He stands out for his record of plagiarism and promoting false claims. nyti.ms/4gb5yn1
Benny has always had an interesting relationship with the truth, including his own identity!
Another mediocre non black male 😂
Mediocre is being generous.
😂 FACTS. More like ⚪🗑️
Do you EVEN remember- like, LAST FUCKING YEAR- how they were screaming about the Chinese getting access to Joe Biden via Hunter? ie, PAY-FOR-PLAY?!?
Trump’s kind of people
Is Maggie jealous? I can think of no other reason why your propaganda rag would put out a hit piece of regime-favorite Benny Johnson.
Why do you consider the plagiarism case more important than the fact that he was literally a paid propagandist for the Kremlin?This is such an embarrassing headline.
At the white house he’s an amateur. 🤓🥸
Or another way to put, your new colleague.
“False claims” = lies
Wanted; rogues, crooks and liars to serve in high govt post. Criminal record an asset but not essential; on the job training available.
The tangerine shitgibbon's coterie love losers, schemers, failures and other dumbqunts. A once mighty nation now a rogue shitshow.
Fuck off
Name it as propaganda and fascism.
“Promoting false claims”? You mean a liar? Someone who lies?
Benny was also paid by Russia for years, and pretends he didn't know. But somehow, that's not news.
So was Tim Pool, that weird beanie guy. They're all Russian assets.
I’m still not over that right wing podcaster getting $100,000.00 per episode. chicago.suntimes.com/politics/202...
It's a burgeoning industry, perfect for the worst sector of society: the hate industry. An industry for otherwise useless individuals with nothing to offer, now they can finally peddle their racism, bigotry and backwards thinking; propped up by MAGA.
Mediocre white men are so back.
You forgot, PAID RUSSIAN PROPAGANDISTS.
An accurate headline for once. Thank you.
Perfect addition to the White House “press” corps with impeccably corrupt credentials. Another clown in the circus. 🤡
I’m still waiting for more on the Epstein files from you people. I don’t need to read more tongue baths of traitors who talk to that guy in the WH.
Plagiarism is stealing. It's stealing someone else's thoughts, ideas, and written words, typically through ignorance or because you are too lazy to do the work yourself of research, study, and writing. Not surprising this is embraced at this WH.
Well, considering Trump plagiarized the speech from the movie Legally Blonde, and Melania plagiarized Michelle Obama's speech, is anyone really surprised?
Punch every Nazi.
When you listen to him, your IQ drops 40%. I mean he’s really dumb. Not like Trump dumb, but dumb enough to be embraced by maga. This era rewards stupid and blind devotion to an aging land grifter. WTF have we become?
When Trump passes, all these right wing podcasters will need to go find a real job.

All MAGA podcasters are just like Trump. Weak, vile, sellouts.
He also accepted Russian money and distributed Russian talking points. www.bbc.com/news/article...
And being paid by Russians.
Of course.
I only knew Benny as the smug prick who may or may not be a holocaust denier
I mean, look at him. That's not a face you can trust
How much this White House love criminals and thugs; thugocracy!
He’s a Russian asset
I hear you folks pretend to care a lot about plagiarism
Grifters, film flammers, charlatans, and Russian assets.
Fake news, indeed
Looks like he is a perfect fit with Trump's Administration!
And in this paper, he’s given a glowing profile
Because billionaires own the media and all billionaires are corrupt thieves.
You can all burn in fucking hell together, collaborators.
someone should tell Taylor Lorenz
Gee, you don't tell...
Perfect person to help melania plagiarize better and more frequently.
“neo-nazi podcaster now has exclusive access to talk to the convicted felon rapist president”
Why don’t they just paint “Idiots Only” over the entrance?
Overheard
Freaks. All these people. Children being traded like sex toys to some of these sick fucks. There’s nothing that these people think is too much. Hate drives them.
The Trump White House wants people with flexible morals.
Sneak peak into what he's got coming his way one day
Trump doesn’t care if you lie, as long as he likes the lies you tell.
And being paid by Russia, lest we forget.
Jesus, they are all crooked 😳
Is he related to Maga Mike Johnson who is also by any chance? There seems to be some resemblance. They are all Russian assets and traitors.
🇺🇸👀 choose a grifter to lead, 100% chance of grift
👿🤡👿🤡
White men failing upwards. Here’s my shocked face. 😐
bsky.app/profile/marc...
Just another smarmy corrupt white guy who will do anything for wealth and power.
Known Russian asset Benny Johnson
Also for taking money from Russian agents (albiet unwittingly) to promote their propaganda.
I’m always shocked when the I’m-not-evil-just-stupid defense works for people. I never tried it, but I know exactly how “I was just a bit stupid” would have gone over with every authority figure in my life. I’d have lost my job and (worse) lost the respect of everyone I admired.
yeah nice job highlighting a liar who takes money from our enemies in exchange for spouting their propaganda the Times has no shame
Wow breaking news. We already new he was a serial liar and propagandist
Promoting false claims? Sounds kind of like @nytimes.com
He’s a douche
Even the ethically, morally and intellectually bankrupt WH has standards, apparently.
You mistyped “Podcaster Paid Directly by Vladimir Putin …”
Just by looking at him you know he is a terrible cunt
Just another grifting shill Mossad asset a conduit for the Jewish terrorists instructions to the proxy admin and deflection propaganda asset one of the occupation tools to keep magatards looking in the wrong direction and blaming the wrong culprits and not the Talmudists for their ailments!!
Perfect white nationalist bro casting.
There’s that one scene in God Bless America where Frank hunts down a rightwing media personality running in the park. Just wanted to point that out if any people who have lost it all are reading this.
They are constantly inventing new ways to lie to us.
He’s a submediocre honky degen. Of course he’s feted at the White House.
Ugh… 😩 it just DOESN’T end!
He is creepy looking. Like stalker, secrets in the closet, creepy.
He’s a liar and propagandist. Also, paid by the Russians. Don’t forget those important points
Those are the top 3 skills on his resume.
He even *looks* like a Total Douchebag.
MAGA people love liars, thieves, cheats, and scumbags.
The mirror world
Does this mean he’ll be co -editor in chief with Christopher Rufo?
Well, he still calls himself Benny, so...
He’s a real grinder.
…and having an incredibly punchable face.
He’s not just a “right-wing podcaster.” He’s a soviet asset: www.forbes.com/sites/siladi...
Of course, that's what it's all about with this administration. Felons rapist Russian assets insurrectionist ebezzlers racist and the list goes on and on and on Feel free to add some.
He's also a methamphetamine addict.
NYT complicit til the end.
Took Russian cash too along with that wannabe skateboard guy tim pool
Why are you leaving out that he was paid by the Kremlin? Shouldn't that be top of the list of problems with this guy?
Try to post a comment like this on the NYT itself... It will never be published. The @nytimes.com is censoring any comment related to Russian propaganda. So don't expect them to write about it. It's ok with China though as Trump is supposed to not like Chinese...
Try reading the article. It mentions it multiple times.
It doesn't say anything close to what is said in the replies here. Try to post a comment like the one above and it will not be published by the Times. About China? It will be.
I have read it. My question/critique was why this was not mentioned in the post promoting the article, not the article itself.
In the article they just say he was not aware of him being paid by Russia. It has been the line of defense of them all, the "influencers". The NYT is rehashing his line of defense. No investigation, no journalism. Russian propaganda, the one that put Trump in the WH, is taboo at the @nytimes.com.
Also, although mentioned it's not exactly the focus of the article. It's like writing an article (and headline) about somebody being bad for cheating on their taxes, and casually mentioning in the fifth paragraph that "Oh, and btw this person also killed a few people."
Lying and conspiracy theories are embraced by this crooked administration…Trump built a political career based on those two principles
Rare access to the Trump Administration? You can't shut those people up
He’s a fucking nazi not a right wing podcaster
So he’s a liar
Benny is one of the Tenet Media six, alongside other bought off idiots like Tim Pool and Dave Rubin. That's all you need to know. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Te...
You left out he was being paid by Russia along with Tim Pool and other creepy MAGA propagandists.
Minister for propaganda.
Hey thanks for giving us trump because you were in the tank for him
It's the House of Lies. Lying liars lie.
Trump promotes and protects other liars, cheats, and criminals.
Guys, were allowed to say "lies".
The snakes are coming out in droves as the right wing scams become easier to profit from
They love their liars
Queen for a Day! Better get those hair plugs baby or drumpf won’t find you attractive enough now that he is in his old white man coming out of the closet phase.
That guy is a KOOK
Promoting false claims of being a heterosexual
You forgot the part about being a racist Nazi. Seems relevant
Brought to you by his sponsor, the Kremlin!
Benny really wanted to see those Epstein files until the Trumpers informed him that they wanted him to protect pedophiles now instead of exposing them. He's a good boy and does what he's told.
Type of person which should be banned from any serious platform. Why? Look at the USA and prevent the same from happening in Europe.
Karl Popper: The "Paradox of Tolerance" from "The Open Society and Its Enemies" (1945) Unrestricted tolerance inevitably leads to the disappearance of tolerance. If a tolerant society tolerates intolerant forces, this can lead to its own tolerance being restricted or destroyed.
Popper argues that a tolerant society should have the right to defend itself against intolerance, even if this means not tolerating intolerant people or ideas.
Hmmm. B.Johnson - dodgy ? Surely not !!
Collaborators and tribunals in his future.
Melania did it too! They love that kind of scum!
Creepy Benny
He was also paid by Russia and claimed he didn’t know 🙄
Incompetence requires propaganda
Almost like all the hand wringing over pretend plagiarism as applied to the President of Harvard was bad faith bullshit and you guys got played.
This article is by @kenbensinger.bsky.social - Russian agent Benny Johnson who also takes money from Israel and has received over a million dollars combined from Putin and Netanyahu. Not "right-wing podcaster" or "new media figure" - paid state media propagandist for at least three nations now.
Another example of the kind of people invited into the Trump administration: 100% hubris/zero % integrity
k u n t
🐀
It’s about Benny Johnson, a conservative podcaster, gaining special access to the Trump administration by pushing their agenda online. He’s notable for past plagiarism and spreading misinformation, despite his large following.
He’s really terrible guy. Thanks for trying to normalize him🫥
He’s also a white supremacist
Of course he’s VILE!
So non stop coverage of his plagiarism until he’s fired right?
