It is becoming harder and harder for Joe McGinniss to remain "trignostic."

Sarah Palin March 26, 2008. Twenty two days before "giving birth."
From Joe's blog:

What’s new in the emails is proof that seven hours after being overwhelmed by desperation about the fate of her new gift from her Heavenly Father, Sarah was firing off BlackBerry messages, including one about Andrew Halcro, one of her opponents in the gubernatorial race of 2006, who’d started a blog often critical of her.

“What a goof he is…truly annoying,” she wrote in the throes of her desperation about Trig’s fate. She added, “I’m headed home from Dallas.”

We’ve all heard about compartmentalizing, but, hey, let’s get real: her great gift from her Heavenly Father is at risk of dying before he’s even born and Sarah is bitching about Andrew Halcro?

Despite being overwhelmed by desperation, Sarah also fired off a note to an aide that morning, instructing her not to proceed with a fake letter to the editor of the Anchorage Daily News–one that was to be sent as if it came from Sarah–responding to criticism from a couple of Anchorage radio personalities.

“Don’t submit at this time as there will be more thought put into this…” she wrote.

In THE ROGUE I wonder about how Sarah spent the hours between the onset of desperation at four a.m. and her luncheon speech. Now we know: she was on her BlackBerry, dealing with inconsequential matters, as her amniotic fluid continued to leak, putting her baby, hour by hour, at increasing risk.

IF there was a baby in her womb at the time.

Jesse Griffin’s close reading of Sarah’s letter to family and friends, written as if it were from God, provides the strongest evidence I’ve yet seen that Sarah was not pregnant in 2008 and did not give birth to Trig.

In the popular idiom, “God is in the details.” Here, God is in the redactions.

You know, I had feeling that Joe would come around eventually.

Man if you think the books written by Geoffrey Dunn and Frank Bailey rattled Palin's cage, just wait until she gets a load of what McGinniss has in store for her.

(P.S. By the way I also heard from the authors of the "babygate" book today.  Guess who else just added a new chapter?)

    The letter is meant as a coverup. Palin was not pregnant with Trig, as so many diligent people like you Gryphen have demonstrated over the past years with much evidence. (What initially completely convinced me way back when was the picture of Palin 3 days after supposedly giving birth to Trig--she was clearly not post-partum but thin, no breast enlargement etc.)

    And now the email "God" letter and emails showing she was working during her dangerous labor and nearly immediately after giving birth to Trig.


    The Trig hoax is bad enough, but possibly more disturbing is Palin's blasephemy--using the "voice" of "God" to disseminate lies. The letter reveals a deep pathology in Palin and that should not be underestimated.

    Why is it overlooked by people Palin allegedly was having a premature birth. No woman of sound and right mind who truly wanted her infant would not go to a hospital immediately. Especially a sanctimonious pro lifer who claims she knew the fetus was compromised.

    Knowing how Palin projects, after reading the letter from God it struck me she had issues the fetus was not "perfect" and it was Palin who did not want a DS baby. She goes on and on overboard spewing everyone did not want him born.

    I am believing now what was "the best" for Sarah was a special needs infant to secure the nomination. When Narcissists say you you it is for you truth is it is all for the pathologic personality.

    BTW have they institutionalized Trig? Or do they park him with caretakers and take him out when it is convenient? Maybe his biological mother is paid for the prop. It is our business if Palin passes self off as a hands on all providing grizzly mom.

    The people who care for Trig may provide concrete truth.

  8. Thanks to your hard work Gryphen (and some other bloggers as well) some people are starting to look at the evidence. First they think this story is too fantastic to be true(and too evil), then it also takes some time reading and looking at all the pictures to understand it has to be a faked pregnancy. It is just astounding to me that it has taken so long for the truth to get some recognition. All those who refused to examine the evidence and kept saying Palin carried Trig should really do some self examination. Group think is an ugly thing.

  9. In this post, Joe also says:

    The question of whether or not Trig was really Sarah’s baby was much on my mind last spring and summer in Alaska. Both Levi’s sister, who was photographed holding him soon after birth, and Levi’s mother assured me that conspiracy theories about Trig were absurd: Sarah gave birth to him, just as she said.

    Hmmm. Misinformed, or self-protective?

    From Joe's blog:

    This excellent post from IM, which is clear & concise, should also be picked up by the MSM:-

    ——————————————————————————————————-
    Anonymous said…
    I myself have given birth four times- once to twins. So I feel I can be fairly accurate with the following estimations. I’ve had one homebirth, two vaginal deliveries- one with epidural and one without, and one c-section. So I am taking all my experience into account, along with many secondhand experiences as a doula and birth coach.

    They say Trig was born at 6:30am, so…

    Immediately after the baby was delivered, the cord would be clamped and he would be taken over to the warmer. The would suction his airways, do his first APGAR, put a security bracelet on his ankle or wrist, clean him up, do a closer umbilical clip, put his first diaper on, and swaddle him up. Now due to Trig’s medical issues there certainly would have been an exam done by a pediatrician as well as a pediatric cardiologist. I estimate these measures would have taken approximately 18 to 25 minutes. It seems quick because it is- they do these things bam-bam-bam.

    So the time is now approximately 6:50.

    Now, while they are clearing the baby’s airways and cleaning them up, etc, they are watching mom to make sure the placenta is delivering properly, they’ll sometimes press on mom’s tummy to jumpstart things is they are stalled…one thing that plays a very large part of this scenario is the fact that Palin claimed to have had to be “induced”. Pitocin is a nasty, nasty thing…it forces the body into the most wretched, soul-consuming contractions possible.

    The pitocin has to be pulled back for the afterbirth because of the risk concerning uterine prolapse. So we can safely estimate that Palin was starting to expel the afterbirth just as Trig would have been swaddled up and possibly held by dad.

    Assuming Palin took the least amount of time possible to expel her afterbirth and that she did not have any tearing (which she likely would have as such a petite woman having a pitocin induced labor) then we can add another 15-20 minutes.

    more...

    ReplyDelete
  13. Anonymous5:33 AM

    The time is now approximately 7:10.

    Palin’s own narrative says the children came in “minutes after” the birth. Assuming she didn’t make the children watch her afterbirthing…the children come in around 7:15. Supposedly Bristol, Willow, Piper, and of course Levi were there. And Track was on the phone. Even if we allot only 5-7 minutes per child to meet, hold, coo over, etc the new baby, that takes up around 25 minutes.

    At some point, Trig will have had his second APGAR scoring. His glucose will be checked and his footprints will be taken. These things will add around 15-20 minutes.

    So with kids visiting and holding/meeting the baby (and remember we know from Sarah’s own telling to People magazine that each child held Trig right after birth- this is when Willow supposedly says he looks like he has DS- preposterous) and the additional tests and procedures Trig went through…we add about 40 minutes.

    The time is now approximately 7:45.

    DS babies are notorious for difficult feeding. Sarah herself has mentioned she breastfed Trig. With a DS baby there would have been a nurse or lactation consultant to help with Trig’s first feed. In a healthy baby without DS, the first feed averages 40 minutes. It likely took closer to an hour but in the name of playing devil’s advocate, we’ll say 40 minutes.

    The time is now approximately 8:25.

    So allowing absolutely NO TIME whatsoever for Sarah to hold and cuddle her new baby nor change her blood and amniotic soaked bed linens…yes, she COULD have been sending emails at 8:30.

    But truly- who among us believes that Sarah Palin, governor of Alaska, lay in a bed soaked with blood, feces, fluid, mucous…and chose to send nondescript, unimportant emails…before changing her bed linens, using the restroom carefully, with a wash bottle and then putting on a chux pad…and again, not taking any time to just BE with her new baby…?

    I can’t believe I took the time to type all this out just so I could say once MORE…WHAT AN IDIOT. Who would believe this??!

    I'm shocked that Joe was a Trignostic. He has children. I assume he was at least partially involved in his wife's pregnancies - enough to know you don't wait 10 hours after leaking water. Enough to know that you don't look like a whale in the ninth month of your first pregnancy, but don't show in your fifth pregnancy twenty years later. Enough to know that pregnant women don't balloon up, and then slim down prior to giving birth.
    I also presume he has some background in science, and an ability to understand basic science and listen to science teachers, given the nature of his prior books. What explanation could there possibly be for ruffles than two babies (at least).
    I presume he is familiar with "reasonable doubt" - based on his books - and that reasonable doubt isn't the same thing as beyond-a-shadow-of-a-doubt although frankly, I don't think the latter standard is difficult to achieve.
    I could go on.
    I can't fathom one possible explanation that would make everything SP has said reasonable and explainable - even in a crazy world. Her stories defy the laws of physics (or in this case, the laws of biology).

    He may not be able to figure out the real story. But figuring out that Trig isn't SP's biological child is easy. Where was his hesitation?

    Some more reasons that should make anyone suspicious of Sarah Palin's story of giving birth to Trig:
    1. She did not tell her own parents that she was pregnant until she was supposed to be in her 7th month.
    (There were 3 kids in that house who should have noticed something, too).
    2. The majority of photos taking in March and April, 2008, show Sarah with a flat stomach. Please don't give me that "tight abs" stuff. Photos of Sarah taken during her other pregnancies show that she was as big as a house.
    3. The only "staged" photo shows a woman who went from flat stomach to round belly overnight. It's interesting that despite numerous seat belt checks, not one flight attendant on any of those Texas-Alaska flights offered a seat extender or a pillow for a governor who looked that pregnant.
    4. The first alarm bells sounded when Palin described waking up at 4 AM, and calling her doctor back in Alaska. Any doctor, who just heard that a 44 year old woman with a special needs child was going into labor and leaking fluid would say, "Get to the nearest emergency room, STAT!"
    5. Men react differently to this story than women do. Women who have given birth, even those who had no difficulty, remember labor pains and the fact that you cannot give a speech and take a 12 hour plane trip while in labor and leaking fluid, let alone send texts and pretend that nothing is going on.
    6. When rumors swirled around Wasilla that Bristol was pregnant and she had given birth to Trig, Sarah did not show a birth certificate or hold one of those press conferences with her doctor. Instead, she had her staff work on getting ahead of the story.
    7. Sarah was supposed to deliver Trig at 6 or 6:30 AM, and by 10 AM she was conducting government business. She had also been up since 4 AM the previous morning. Sorry, even the pioneer woman who squatted in the field, gave birth and got back to work doesn't believe that story.
    8. The emails from April 17 suggest business as usual, instead of saying, "We're returning early. Baby #5 is on his way."
    9. The Governor of Alaska is in labor, about to deliver a premature baby with special needs and she by-passes a well-equipped hospital in Anchorage to give birth in a little community hospital another 45 minutes away. There was no ambulance and police escort waiting to meet her airplane. Her doctor had delivered 3 children that year. Those are bad choices, if they are to be believed.
    10. No one writes the birth announcement until the baby is born. No one!

  19. Anonymous5:41 AM

    So, by April 7, when Sarah drafted the God letter, "Trig" had already been born?! She drafted the letter so that she would have it ready to send out after the baby was "delivered" to her. She inconveniently gets word that the baby is ready to be discharged from the hospital on April 18, requiring that she travel back to Alaska. Then she sends out the God letter as though it were written after Trig's birth. What a colossal fraud. And she's getting away with it.

    I am beginning the think (rather depressingly) that it really does not matter what Sarah Palin did or did not do. No one seems to care. I do agree with her that the MSM is freaking lame. Because of the constant coverage of everything Sarah (except what really should have mattered) people are numb to her antics and numb to what the MSM have to report about her. So, when the evidence that she faked her pregnancy is seemingly indisputable.............no one is listening and no one really cares. She's a crack pot after all.

    Why didn't anyone else in the Palin Administration, such as security detail, accompany Sarah to Dallas? Right there tells me that she didn't want any witnesses to see that she wasn't wearing the "Gusty pregnant suit" when she went through the airport.
    When Sarah was announced as McCain's VP candidate way back in late August of 2008 and the story of the "Wild Ride" was told on Meet The Press and "Barney Rubble"(David Gregory) was gushing all about the great pioneer woman that's when I started doubting the story, especially about the leaking amniotic fluid part. I have had two live births and that shit just does NOT happen. As soon as the mucous plug is gone(sorry to be so descriptive but it is what it is)there's nothing there to keep infection from possibly getting to the baby and the woman was getting on two different planes in two dirty, germ-y airports??!! Didn't Governor Good Hair tell her she and Todd could use his private jet to get back to Alaska? No. It never happened. Sarah was never pregnant. Anyone who believes that she was is not paying attention and wants to believe in fairy tales and unicorns. That woman is an idiot.

  34. As truly strange as a letter written by oneself AS G*D, not TO G*D, AS G*D, I think the letter is a red herring.

    I find the fact that sp sent this HIGHLY PERSONAL letter - to HER GOVERNMENT CO-WORKERS/EMPLOYEES much, much stranger than the letter's contents.

    Isn't this letter to Trig's Family and Friends?

    The fact that a sitting Governor sent out such a highly religiously centered, and PERSONAL e-mail to other Gov't employees PROVES that there was a CHRISTIAN CENTRIC ideology in the Palin admin.

    It appears that ideology overrode the separation of church and state, to the degree that Palin and e-mail respondents regularly referenced G*D, prayer, etc.

    I find it stunning that many Christians have no problem with Christianity (I am a Christian, BTW)invading Gov't, schools, etc.- despite the absolute CONFLICT with our Constitution- simply b/c it is THEIR religion.

    If sp and her fellow gov't employees were MUSLIM? And praising ALLAH, etc?

    You think people would be a-okay with that?

    I agree. A couple was just awarded a multi-million dollar lawsuit in which a mother was not induced until two days after her water broke. Baby suffered due to low amniotic fluid -- Sarah didn't seem to have a care in the world that she waited more than 24 hours to go to the hospital after her's supposedly broke.

  37. Joe was, annoyingly, part of the chorus telling us there was "nuthin' to see" in these e-mails just a few days ago:

    given that almost everyone has agreed that Palin has become as irrelevant to our national discourse as a third tit on a mule, why–especially in this age of journalistic decimation–are so many major MSM outlets pouring so many resources down a dry hole?

    The New York Times and Washington Post putting out help-wanted ads in order to attract volunteer labor to work on this story of transcendent national interest and significance?

    Think about that for a moment: those twin pillars of MSM have never tried to shanghai crews of amateurs in advance to help them with any other story. But for the Palin emails it’s all hands to the pump.

    Why?

    All the experts tell us Sarah will not run for president next year.

    If she doesn’t, her political career ended on July 3, 2009, when she resigned as governor of Alaska.

    Yet the political chattering class can chatter about little else but Sarah, Sarah, Sarah. They remain obsessed.

    First off...I have always believed Joe Mac nurtured the heart of a Trigbyterian! I believe these authors almost HAVE to say "oh, me? No, I'm TRIGNOSTIC" to protect their interests. Once the books are sold and the hype dies down...I think some "opinions" will change.

    Well, let me take that back in regard to Frank Bailey- that man KNOWS the truth and every rotten detail which has propped up Sarah's insane, sick web of child-exploiting lies. I don't know why Jeanne Devon and Frank have taken this hard-line, head in the sand approach concerning Trig. I do know they were aware of the pending FOIA request for the emails while they were writimg this book.

    How is it possible that Frank and Jeanne KNEW none of their book/Sarah's emails they used would be contradicted by emails released by the state? I submit that Bailey was and possibly still IS working with someone inside the governor's office. He and Devon were completely sure they wouldn't be "embarrassed" by any babygate related emails...and they weren't.


    Sooner or later we WILL find the "smoking gun" whether it be in the form of an email within Palin's camp, a portion of medical records, or a statement from someone finally willing to go on the record...

    At that time, people will respect those like Andrew Sullivan and you Gryphen, people who stuck with the truth from day one even when doing so invited nothing but scorn and contempt.

    I'm so glad McGinniss may be choosing to stand on the side of truth, excellence in journalism, and integrity.

    Trignosticism is very easy to fall prey to, especially for an author of Joe McGuinness's caliper. Every woman who's given birth should know, beyond any question, that the nativity narrative of Trig Palin is, at the least, a lie.
    The facts Gryphen and others have gleaned from these highly redacted, unorganized emails are very convincing.
    When I was carrying my second child, I spent the last three months almost totally in bedrest, because my cervix has to be sutured in an attempt to help the baby develope enough to survive outside the womb. A few weeks before the birth, I began "spotting" heavily, my doctor sent me directly to the hospital. I could go on and on, but my point is this:

    I had all the time in the world on my hands, and not once did the idea cross my mind to compose a birth announcement. You do everything in your power, except tempt fate.

    Doing so is very suspect, and doing so in the voice of God, Heavenly Father, Supreme Being, higher power, whatever you want to call it is just pure, unadulterated bullcrap.

    I'm so glad this issue is finally getting some traction. I doubt, three years later, it will amount to a hill of beans, but it will expose the depth of despiration Sarah will go to, in her quest for power and recognition.

    She NEVER explicitly says that Trig was not with her in the fender bender nor does she refute the claim he wasn't in his carseat.

    What seems to be obvious in reading this exchange now? Sarah got in a fender bender and thank God nobody was hurt. Trig was NOT properly restrained. Sarah sent him home with Ivy or Frank (or someone from "the circle") so that when the APD got there...there was no Trig.

    When I was pregnant, I traveled a lot for work. My doctor told me that if anything seemed the slightest bit wrong, I should go straight to the nearest emergency room, as there was nothing she could do for me by phone.

    I cannot believe Granny LuLu's doctor told her to call, and then told her over the phone not to worry about it.

    Maybe doctors in the lower 48 are better than doctors in Alaska?

    I have a close relative who created fantastic schemes and told bizarre lies our entire lives.

    Unless you actually LIVE with someone like this you just absolutely cannot fathom the lengths to which they will go to prove they are not lying.

    If I described some of the over the top, unbelievable, grandiose crap that she has pulled off, NO ONE here would believe it. But you would have, if she was personally pulling it on you.

    The reaction of every single normal, intelligent, thinking person who was ever subjected to her brand of crazy has been the same..."No one would EVER dare just make something like this up, so it MUST be true!".

    Because my relative is able to seem so gosh darn personable, normal and innocent, person after person would believe her, from authorities to neighbors to strangers in grocery stores.

    She has done some real damage to people's lives. And by the time her newest, bestest friends finally realize the truth about her, it's always way too late. She's either used them up, scammed them or destroyed their reputations...

    And SHE comes off smelling like the proverbial rose. Lived it in head shaking disbelief all my life...

    HOWEVER, it has come to pass that as she aged, it got harder and harder for her to appear so normal and nice. Karma sure has taken it's own sweet time to get around to her. ('bout 40 years)

    Every day I come here and read about Sarah Palin. And every day I shake my head and think about how every rotten, cold hearted, illicit, sneaky thing she says and does is identical to my relative's merciless behavior.

    And yet there really are nice, normal, intelligent people who believe Palin is the best thing to ever happen to the USA.

    Fortunately, Sarah is not aging well, scam wise, either. Karma is catching up with her, too, also.

    I hope that she becomes a despised pariah just as my relative finally did after all the years of family destruction she caused.

    One fact that is consistently missing from this fake pregnancy debate ins that Sarah has a tubal ligation when Piper was born........how then did this "surgically sterile" woman become pregnant??????????

    For me, the most convincing evidence of the big lie is the audio of Sarah and Todd's interview after Trig's birth. They both got so squirrelly after being asked about her water breaking! Then Todd says something about how everyone is a doctor these days and Sarah launches into a huge defense of how they never endangered the baby, etc., etc., and meanwhile the reporter didn't ever imply such a thing in the question.
    If you can, go back and listen to the part after the reporter says she heard Chuck Heath talking aout Sarah's water breaking. Very damning...

  51. @anon 10:05. The tubal is not mentioned because it is only rumor. At this point no one has gone on the record about it. I wish they would.

    The top photo of $nooki always looked to me more like she was wearing an adult diaper than that she was pregnant. Who gets pregnant and stops carrying the weight from the pelvic bones down? She's as thin as ever from her belly down! She's got a pillow in her pants!

    Anon@808: A co-worker of mine could be the relative you describe, although I'm sure she isn't. These NPD Queens start to seem as interchangeable as widgets.
