This is just my opinion but he is not afraid of any left leaning or what he considers anti American protestors. Nope. I think he is afraid of the Mob. The Russian Mob. He is afraid of Putin’s displeasure of failure to bring America to him. The Wall? Well I...

Donald Trump has gone all in on accusing Hunter Biden of corruption in Ukraine, and on accusing Joe Biden of corruptly helping him. He was furious that the second debate didn’t focus on foreign policy, as he had planned to use that as his lead-in to bringing up Hunter and...
I have a legitimate concern. I have passed by the CDC more times than I can count. Emory Hospital, Eglestons Children Hospital and the VA are all right there near the CDC. I have no idea how many competent scientists and docs work at these life saving facilities. None of...
Two stories on the news tonight: First is that Joe Biden put out a statement tonight warning foreign governments, and Russia in particular, that if they try to interfere with our November election, they will pay a heavy price for doing so. (Assuming Biden wins in spite of their interference.)...
Not in so many words, but eight world leaders wrote an op-ed in today’s Washington Post calling for any Covid-19 vaccine to be available worldwide: The international community must guarantee equal global access to a covid-19 vaccine [W]e must urgently ensure that vaccines will be distributed according to a set...
So if you bristled every time someone at your office brought you key information that was crucial to your job performance — and you did it so often that they eventually stopped giving you that information — you’d be fired, right? Of course you would. That’s called being a below-average...
with appropriate subtitles, in a new ad titled “Fellow Traveler” Given the title, the fact that Putin thinks the greatest tragedy of the 20th Century was the fall of the USSR, his role as a KGB figure, and supported by the music of the ad, this is another winner. Oh,...
featuring a former Navy Seal /Annaopolis grad who is now an emergency room doc: x YouTube Video He's a gun-owner. He’s pro-Life. He’s a combat veteran. He says Trump is either a coward or complicit. Another powerful ad.
Yesterday r/The_Donald group got banned by Reddit. Not so easy for the rest of us. x In 2017, we used subreddit algebra to dissect r/The_Donald and filter out commentersâ interest in politics. The results supported the theory that at least a subset of TrumpâÂÂs supporters were motivated by racism. (*On...
New reporting from CNN: From pandering to Putin to abusing allies and ignoring his own advisers, Trump's phone calls alarm US officials In hundreds of highly classified phone calls with foreign heads of state, President Donald Trump was so consistently unprepared for discussion of serious issues, so often outplayed in...
There’s so much unhingery packed into this CNN story on Trump’s phone calls with foreign leaders that choosing among the outrages is kind of like picking your favorite Egyptian plague. Want a shower of frogs? Fire ‘n’ hailstones? Locusts? They’re all here, and then some. So let’s start with this...
Do not ever stand in the way of the Lincoln Project or you risk getting run over. It has been barely 24 hours since the news broke that the Commander in Chief of our armed forces had known that Russia’s Putin was offering bounty money for US soldiers killed in...
So you’ve no doubt seen this explosive New York Times story about Donald Trump’s treachery, fecklessness, and sickening lack of patriotism. If not, here’s the gist: American intelligence officials have concluded that a Russian military intelligence unit secretly offered bounties to Taliban-linked militants for killing coalition forces in Afghanistan — including...
It’s been clear since October 2016 that Vladimir Putin has been interfering in our elections, and that he’s planning to do it again. Even if he can’t get Trump re-selected, he can throw things into such confusion that we won’t trust the election results. His goal is destabilizing the West,...
The ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, ladies and gentlemen: x Devin Nunes asks if the Russians only like Republicans, why did they let the Republicans lose the House of Representatives pic.twitter.com/tPzzUSN6dZ— Acyn Torabi (@Acyn) February 21, 2020 < p class=”is-empty-p”> “And you notice how, when they win elections,...
So when do we start interfering in Russian elections? I know ..I know… we can’t do that but this crap is an act of war. We are a soverign nation or supposed to be. If I wanted to be Russian with a Russian run country, I would fly my ass off...
The mess we’re in didn’t start with IMPOTUS. The GOP and the 1% have been working for years to turn our democracy into an oligarchy where the rule of law is at best a platitude that they pay lip service to. Their plan has always been to keep the Republican...
It seems Russia is not pleased that Trump took out Suleimani. Newsweek: Russia Says U.S. Soleimani Strike Will Damage Regional Stability, Impact Millions of People Russia's Foreign Ministry has condemned the U.S. assassination of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commander Qassem Soleimani, warning Thursday's strike would only escalate regional tensions and...
In the third debate, in October 2016, between Hillary and the now-impeached president trump, Hillary said that Putin would “rather have a puppet” as President, and now-IMPOTUS taunted back, like the child he is, “I know you are, but what am I?” (Well, actually he said, “No puppet! You’re the...
Former Vice President Joe Biden voiced a unique concern about the 2020 election results at a campaign event in Iowa on Friday. The presidential hopeful stated that “he's concerned about what would happen if the Republican Party were totally “clobbered,” BuzzFeed News reports, adding that he’s “really worried that no party should...
When did the GOP become a pro-Russia cult? Seriously, when? These people are so mesmerized by Donald Trump’s surpassing charms they can’t resist upending decades of conservative orthodoxy for the chance to kiss the hand that grabs the pussies? Really? x Tucker: “Why do I care what is going on...
Biloxi Sun Herald “Russian President Vladimir Putin has sat down in Sochi with visiting Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for talks on Syria.

Now that our nation’s promises are worth less than a degree from Trump University, our enemies see openings wider than the Wiffleball holes in Donald Trump’s brain. Julia Davis, a Russian media analyst who’s written for The Washington Post and The Daily Beast, recently unearthed the following gem from Russian...
I watched Rachel Maddow interview Ambassador McFaul this evening, and a number of things about this whole unholy mess became clear. Let me see if I can lay it out: In 2014, Russia invades the Crimea. In response, Obama and the EU impose sanctions and kick Russia out of the...
Okay, this case wasn’t that mysterious, but now we have confirmation on who the likely culprit is. Last week, House Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff subpoenaed Acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire regarding a mysterious whistleblower complaint from a U.S. intelligence official. According to reports, the complaint had to do with...
If only we could see that the real enemy of America is our former tan-suited president, not the vicious, lying, land-grabbing leader of our bitter rival. Then Donald Trump’s job would be so much easier. But, alas. Trump telegraphs his obeisance to Vladimir Putin nearly every day — and especially when...
Okay, she was kinda-sorta diplomatic about it, but still. After Donald Trump blathered some nonsense about never, ever doing things for political reasons (really?), and claimed that he ran in one election (false) and won, and that he’s ahead of the 2020 field based on polls (wrong again), he said...
I believe the correct response to this tweet is “delete your account.” Or maybe “delete my eyes, please.” x Arrived in St Petersburg Russia.

Check the date. This tweet sprung from the rich, fertile loam in Donald Trump’s cranium exactly three years ago this morning: x The new joke in town is that Russia leaked the disastrous DNC e-mails, which should never have been written (stupid), because Putin likes me — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)...
Okay, check out the second tweeted video. (I’m not sure how to separate these; I guess my tweetering skills are subpar.) x LOL! This is classic. A foreign reporter asks Trump a detailed Q about his Africa policy in general & Zimbabwe specifically Trump's response? “We're looking at Zimbabwe right...
Having handpicked the biggest idiot on the planet as our leader, Russia has missed no opportunity to yuck it up at our expense. It’s kind of like plopping a flaming bag of poo on your neighbor’s stoop, ringing the doorbell, and watching him try to scrape the mess off the...
This is not the diary I wanted to write. Though it includes snippets of the research I wanted to share, it is not what I had been working on for the past few days, obviously. I am rushing this diary through as I had most of the research already and...

Has anyone ever thought about sticking a meat thermometer in Trump’s head when he gets like this? I kind of want to know if there’s any chance he’ll self-combust. And I can only guess the thermometer would easily sink in as if his head were a half-baked meatloaf. Ha ha....
Julia Davis, the indefatigable Russia media analyst who regularly monitors Russian state TV, unearthed this gem yesterday, and it proves that the world is no longer heartily laughing at the United States. x #RussiaâÂÂs state TV describes Trump as a self-proclaimed master of the deal, with no deals to speak of. âÂÂYou will...
Because of course he does. Eventually, Vladimir Putin will take Donald Trump on a snipe hunt and lose him in the woods, but until then, he’s his useful little idiot. I mean, why wouldn’t you believe a former KGB agent? They’re known for their honesty and probity. x Once again, the president...
The bar has been set so low for this president that a damning report that can’t conclusively point to criminal wrongdoing is somehow being spun as a glorious triumph for Donald Trump and his skittering phalanx of swamp rodents. And damning it is. For this reason alone, if nothing else: “Although...
Pete Souza tells a story about Obama meeting Putin in Normandy, France in 2014: The Guardian “I wasn’t supposed to be here for this picture. It was taken on the 70th anniversary of the Normandy landings – all the heads of state had gathered there and were coming out of an...
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo sat down for an interview with blond Fox News female No. 1524c-114 yesterday, and his mealy-mouthed answer on NATO’s defense obligations should have everyone in the world (apart from Vladimir Putin) on edge.

Tom Nichols is a national security professor at the Naval War College and a Russia expert, and he just said out loud what, well, I and everyone at DKos say out loud, too: namely that Trump is way, way compromised by Putin’s Russia. Then again, Nichols is a Russia expert and...
Ask yourself how a Russian agent would act, and then look at Donald Trump’s actual behavior. I mean, when it comes to Putin, Trump is basically Blofeld’s cat. From The Washington Post: President Trump has gone to extraordinary lengths to conceal details of his conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin,...
Julia Davis, an expert on Russian propaganda and creator of the Russian Media Monitor, does yeoman’s work in keeping the Western world apprised of Russia’s sometimes shifting attitudes toward their addlepated puppet.

Yesterday I wrote a diary about Russian state media’s taunt-fest at the expense of our feckless leader. The scoop came from Julia Davis, an expert on Russian propaganda who regularly monitors the country’s newspapers and broadcasts. Well, one day later, Russian media (er, Vladimir Putin) are still not satisfied with Donny’s...
Oh, how the mighty stupid have fallen. Two short months ago, the entire UN General Assembly, more or less, openly laughed at Donald Trump when he tried out one of his feckless boasts with someone other than Brian Kilmeade. Well, now it’s Russian state media’s turn to get in on...
