2017: "New book 'Shattered', by Clinton insiders reveal that 'blame Russia' plan was hatched 'within 24 hours' of election loss. The author details how Clinton went out of her way to pass blame for her stunning loss on 'Comey and Russia.'

'That strategy had been set within 24 hours of her concession speech. Mook and Podesta assembled her communications team at the Brooklyn headquarters to engineer the case that the election wasn't entirely on the-up-and-up. For a couple of hours, with Shake Shack containers littering the room, they went over the script they would pitch to the press and the public. Already, Russian hacking was the centerpiece of the argument."

Exactly right.  They made up the whole story that the DNC and Clinton campaign’s emails were stolen months earlier and disseminated.  The same thing happened in 1972 when the McGovern campaign made up the story the day after their loss that the DNC headquarters was broken into five months earlier by the Nixon campaign.

Moon-Strzok No More: Lisa Page Spills Beans

http://consortiumnews.com/2018/07/23/moon-strzok-no-more-lisa-page-spill...

"The meaning of a crucial text message between two FBI officials appears to have been finally explained, and it's not good news for the Russia-gate faithful, as Ray McGovern explains. Former FBI attorney Lisa Page has reportedly told a Joint Committee of the House of Representatives that when FBI counterintelligence official Peter Strzok texted her on May 19, 2017 saying there was 'NO BIG THERE THERE', he meant there was no evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

As Mark Twain put it, 'It is easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.' And as we have seen over the past couple of years, that goes in spades for 'Russiagate'."

Clapper said no such thing.  Another lie.

As for being fooled, the initial claim was that Russia hacked the Democrats.  That has been substantiated.  The question of collusion awaits the results of the Mueller investigation.

Like hell it has been 'substantiated' unless you mean asserted by the NYT or WaPo. The video says what it says and the DNC incident according to technical experts can only have been a leak. The  only 'hacks' involved are the ones who write the articles you can't stop brainwashing yourself with.

High Crimes and Misdemeanors - Not by Trump but Obama and Democrats  -  by Ajamu Baraka [*Must Read*]

https://blackagendareport.com/high-crimes-and-misdemeanors-not-trump-oba...

"With the revelations about the role and activities of Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, the Comey leak to the press, with the express purpose to create a pretext for the appointment of a special counsel, the placing of an FBI informant in the Trump campaign, the role of Andrew McCabe in covering up for his subordinates and leaking classified information to the press, the 'primary narrative' of the Democratic party and liberals is starting to unravel. 

In actuality, it points to criminal use of the government's counterintelligence capabilities to engage in a partisan manipulation of the electoral process."

Not only that but the vast majority of the grassroots long ago, lost track of and patience with 'Russia, Russia, Russia' while so many important issues remain undealt with. Dems will lose if they think they can make this the issue to win an election on. It's elite politics only.

Ajamu Baraka isn't Sean Hannity or Nunes, nor am I. 

Yeah.  Trump and his cohorts are doing the bidding of the Saudis as much as they are doing the bidding of the Israelis. 

There is some truth to the notion that liberals have aligned themselves with international capital.  But they're not the left.

If you don't support Trump you're for World War III. So I've been told.

The Russia Obsession

https://lbo-news.com/2018/07/20/the-russia-obsession/

Good God, the Russia obsession!

It seems that Democrats are now incapable of talking about anything else but Russian interference in our sacred election...We're seeing Dem pundits even accusing Bernie Sanders and other insurgents within the party of being Russian agents, witting or unwitting. Their indictments of Trump for treason make them sound like demented right-wingers at the height of the Cold War."

And this is who Trump is really worried about singing.

A federal grand jury investigating President Donald Trump's former personal lawyer Michael Cohen for possible crimes has subpoenaed the chief financial officer of Trump's company, Allen Weisselberg, to testify, a new report said Thursday.

The Wall Street Journal, citing sources familiar with the case, said that Weisselberg, who is an executive of the Trump Organization, is considered a witness in the ongoing probe of Trump's ex-attorney Michael Cohen.

“Trump may be an orange-faced ignoramus peddling xenophobic and racist demagogy like knock-off Louis Vuittons in Chinatown, but at least he’s trying to make peace. What do you want, nuclear war?”

Some variation of this many-headed hydra of inane analysis is often trotted out to deflect criticism of Trump, typically wrapped in the silky veneer of Facebook radicalism from a number of self-proclaimed leftists. And while liberals knit ever more pussy hats for the inevitable flashmob of political nothingness, a relatively small, yet zealously self-important, segment of the left demands that much legitimate criticism of Trump be viewed as liberal talking points unleashed by the Deep StateTM to scuttle Trump’s long march to peace.

As absurd as it sounds, there are leftists who honestly believe that irrespective of his xenophobia and race-baiting, disastrous trade war and perpetual warmongering against Iran, Venezuela, Big Bird, Colin Kaepernick and Mika Brzezinski’s plastic surgeon, Donald Trump somehow represents a move toward peace globally.

Indeed, because of the Dotard’s doting on Putin, we should all sing hosannas as we erect cheaply made gold-plated monuments in his honor.

But back on Planet Earth, even the specious notion that Trump is somehow a peacemaker cannot fake news its way into being true. In fact, if anything, Trump has been the most bellicose president in recent memory. But don’t tell those Trumpy lefties that. Their fever dreams of political analysis, though rooted in a justified yet thoroughly one-dimensional hatred of Democrats, are simply too brittle to take it.

Well, accroding to those same polls, Republicans now have LESS confidence in the intelligence agencies. So if the point of the Russia investigation is to get Americans feeling good about the intelligence agencies, I'd say the results are somewhat mixed, at best.

And, of course, as NDPP knows, the Republicans are the only real Americans, especially the white Republicans.

1. Russia didn't interfere

2. It had no effect.

3. NOBODY in our campaign knew about it.

4. Nobody IMPORTANT knew about it.

5. Top people knew, but that's not "collusion."

6. "Collusion is perfectly ok."

7. Next up: "collusion is good b/c it helped us win."

Legitimate question, but in this instance totally besides the point.  Kind of reminds me of the Zionists  who respond to claims of human rights violations by Israel by saying, but what about . . . .?

Legitimate question but no answer...Never is. What elephant in the room?

The US political system is more tilted toward Zionism than toward Russia. But that doesn't address the question of illegal activities.

As I've mentioned before, when Pollard got caught spying for Israel, he went to jail. That might seem somewhat odd, given that what he handed Israel was probably a drop in the bucket compared to what the US gives Israel as a matter of routine, but that's the nature of illegal activities: they are dealt with more severely than legal activities, even legal activities that are of dubious moral character.

Back to Trump/Russia, if anyone is found to have illegally colluded with Russia during the election, they can be charged with criminal activities. For now, we'll wait and see what comes out.
