I was wondering how many gates grok would identify…

List of "-Gates" Discussed on 8kun

Thought for 56s

  • Pizzagate: A theory alleging a child sex trafficking network run by high-profile Democrats (e.g., Hillary Clinton, John Podesta) operating out of Comet Ping Pong pizzeria in Washington, D.C., based on interpretations of leaked Podesta emails from WikiLeaks. It claims coded language in emails referred to child abuse and led to real-world incidents like the 2016 armed intrusion at the pizzeria.

 

  • Russiagate: Portrayed as a fabricated hoax by the Obama administration and deep state to frame Donald Trump for colluding with Russia in the 2016 election. Discussions on 8kun tie it to the Steele dossier, FBI investigations, and efforts to delegitimize Trump's presidency, often linking it to broader "deep state" plots.

 

  • Italgate (or Italy Gate): A 2020 election conspiracy claiming Italian military satellites and defense contractor Leonardo S.p.A. (with ties to the Vatican and CIA) remotely altered U.S. voting machine data from Rome to rig the election for Joe Biden. It alleges involvement of Italian officials and U.S. tech firms like Dominion Voting Systems.

 

  • Spygate: Refers to the alleged use of FBI informants (e.g., Stefan Halper) and surveillance to spy on Trump's 2016 campaign, framed as an Obama-era "insurance policy" against his victory. 8kun threads often connect it to Crossfire Hurricane, the FBI's Russia probe, and calls for declassification of related documents.

 

  • Obamagate: An extension of Spygate, accusing former President Barack Obama of personally directing illegal surveillance on Trump and his associates post-election, including unmasking identities in intelligence reports. It's discussed as the "original sin" of the deep state, with demands for Obama's prosecution.

 

  • FISA Gate: Centers on the abuse of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants by the FBI to spy on Trump advisor Carter Page, based on flawed applications tied to the Steele dossier. 8kun users highlight the 2019 DOJ Inspector General report as partial vindication, calling for reforms or abolition of FISA courts.

 

  • :Ukrainegate': Alleges corruption by Joe Biden and his family (via Hunter Biden's Burisma board role) in Ukraine, including pressuring the country to fire a prosecutor investigating the company. Discussions link it to U.S. aid money laundering, impeachment efforts against Trump, and ties to the Clinton Foundation.

 

  • Uranium One Gate: Claims the Clinton Foundation received millions in bribes from Russian interests in exchange for Hillary Clinton (as Secretary of State) approving the 2010 sale of Uranium One, a Canadian company with U.S. uranium assets, to Russia's Rosatom. It's often bundled with Russiagate as evidence of Clinton-Russia ties.
