So much for having things both ways. Disinformation flooding continues. x “Can Trump place Facebook ads that feature Nazi symbols? Yes… Can he spread lies about mail-in fraud? Yes. Can he threaten #BlackLivesMatter protesters with violence? Yes. Will be he be able to use Facebook to dispute the election? Watch this space…”https://t.co/WaxeEEUYqC— Adam Rifkin 🐼 (@ifindkarma)…

Russia and China at Odds Over Trump, Iran Too.
It’s long been obvious that Putin favors Trump and wants to keep him in the White House where he can continue to destroy the United States, both because we’ve been blocking Russia’s ambitions and because Putin wants revenge for the breakup of the Soviet Union and other things we may or may not have done….
China May Interfere in Our Election – Against Russia
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.) Second story is that China…
After Russia Put Bounties on U.S. Troops, Trump Struck Back – At White House Leakers
Among the criticisms most often leveled at Donald Trump is that he has been a negligent president who spends the bulk of his time on self-serving trivialities like golf, Twitter, and watching Fox News. As it turns out, that may be an unfair analysis. Trump isn't nearly as lazy as the past three and half…
Trump's petulance reportedly led to fewer verbal briefings on Russia
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 (i.e., stubborn and stupid) child….
Instead of fighting COVID or Russia, Trump spends his time brainstorming new nicknames for Biden
In a recent story about Donald Trump’s desperate attempts to smother his dumpster fire of a campaign with the same old clown shoes, The Washington Post notes that Trump isn’t 100 percent satisfied with his chosen nickname for Joe Biden. You may have noticed Trump trying out “Corrupt Joe” lately in place of the long-established “Sleepy Joe,” and it turns…
“The outrageousness of [Russia's] behavior is only matched by the outrageousness of…”Traitor Trump
It’s now been confirmed and it was in the Presidential Daily Brief: Trump and Pence knew of the Russian bounty on US troops and did nothing. The Lincoln Project has gotten right on it: x Putin paid a bounty to kill American soldiers. @realDonaldTrump knew about it but did nothing. How can Trump lead America…
Trump continued to praise Putin after discovering Russia put bounties on U.S. soldiers' heads
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 targeting American troops — amid…
Russia's 2020 reelection interference: Trump could absolve the IRA but get a secondary infection
More monkey business. One hopes the USIC is working hard on protecting the 2020 election, especially from unnamed other malign actors. Forgeries, interference, and attacks on Kremlin critics across six years and 300 sites and platforms. Secondary Infektion is a series of operations run by a large-scale, persistent threat actor from Russia that worked in…
America's slide to authoritarianism continues with inviting Russia to the G-7
Month of disruption are ahead. and Putin possibly egging on Trump in the phone call on the same day as the St John’s photo-op does not bode well for life in the Drumpfbunker as November approaches. If the G-7 summit is held in the U.S. in September, and Russia is invited as a nonmember, prepare…
So now Russia is trolling us over press freedom and human rights
Granted, Russia coming to the defense of journalists is a little like Arby’s Twitter account writing a scathing review of a Michelin three-star restaurant, but here we are. We’ve fallen so far and so fast that Russia of all countries is now trolling us over press freedom and human rights: x '@MFA_Russia: It is impermissible…
ventilators for Russia but US blacks cannot breathe
Apparently the killer of George Floyd previously shot and killed a civilian while on duty. Asked about the death of George Floyd at the hands of police in Minnesota, Pres Trump called it "a very very sad event." He said he expects to receive a full report on the incident when back in Washington. pic.twitter.com/9gBkezaHwC…
Trump: I'm the worst thing to ever happen to Russia, but Putin likes me
The Trump Crazy Train never stops, so if you want to get on, understand you’ll have to risk your life to do it. This isn’t some snowflake cult where you get to fall asleep peacefully after drinking grape Flavor-Aid. You’re gonna cough up a lung or crack a femur or something. But it’s totally worth…
Trump administration nabs counter-Russia cash to help build southern border wall
Having spectacularly failed to deliver on every POTUS’ tacit promise that he wouldn’t try to kill us all, Donald Trump is desperately trying to keep one of his oldest and stupidest promises: He WILL build a pointless, expensive, easily traversed wall on our southern border, and our military will pay for it. According to Bloomberg,…
global markets shudder as COVID-19 adds to oil price war between Russia and Saudi Arabia
Trump’s incompetence is making the COVID19 response worse with some lack of confidence in financial demand. Recession looms. Invest in Chicken Nuggets. x The world’s output could fall during the first quarter, putting the economy at risk of recession, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development said Monday https://t.co/zYBtZhoxAO pic.twitter.com/5OrbgEh7qa— Real Time Economics (@WSJecon) March 7,…
Russia if you are listening…. Screw YOU.
The knuckledraggers are at it again. LOCK HER UP. Where are the emails? Let’s subpoena Hunter. This country is so divided and between the earthquakes, tornandoes in Nashville and coronavirus popping up all over, this is all the bums think about. Today is Super Tuesday. It is all about putting this puzzle together as best…
It doesn't matter who wins the primary. Russia Again ! We have to stop this.
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 to Moscow and get used to…
Death of a nation..Who is running this country? The Mob or Russia or both?
There is a dark cloud over this country. A deep sinking sense of doom and that comes from fear and uncertainity. Am I trying to be fatalistic. NO. I am trying to wake you up and see the writing on the wall. He is one dictator with a bunch of spineless, enablers with millions trembling…
Ex-FBI official: Russia just launched 'full-on attack' on 2020 elections, is taunting the U.S.
Former FBI assistant director Frank Figliuzzi appeared on The Last Word With Lawrence O’Donnell last night in the wake of The New York Times’ bombshell report about Russia’s successful hack of Burisma, the company at the center of Donald Trump’s Ukraine scandal. For Figliuzzi, the big takeaway from the story is Russia’s brazenness and open…
Like asking Russia for HRC emails, Trump thinks gutting Medicare would be 'fun' in his second term
Killing the social safety net is the wet dream for the GOP and while Trump will not mention it in 2020, there is evidence that he’s made that second-term promise to the GOP. It’s the same playbook we’ve seen — raise deficits and loot the treasury with things like that upper-class tax cut. And yet the…
