On Wednesday, March 29, 2017, Senator Mark Warner (D-Virginia) stepped up to the microphone to address the press. As Vice Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, Senator Warner told the listening audience that Russia had definitely interfered in the 2016 presidential election. He stated that they had done so with the express intent of making America, “weaker, financially and militarily weaker,” as a nation.
He then directly contradicted himself, apparently unaware he had done so. He said that Russia had used their nefarious influence to try to elect “their choice of candidate, Donald J. Trump.” The one candidate who had based his entire campaign on repeated promises to, among other things, make America financially and militarily mighty once again. The only candidate who repeatedly promised to grow the American businesses, economy and military bigger than ever before, and to do it quickly.
If Russia had been trying to elect a president who would keep America militarily weak and financially floundering, they would have been all-in for Hillary Clinton. Anyone with a cursory understanding of her positions on the military or our economy would have to have known this. It is certain that Vladimir Putin does.
The fact is that Russia’s true and only interest, if any, was to sew general chaos and dissent, to disrupt, and hopefully call into question the validity of, our system as a Constitutional Republic. Sources close to the action in La Rodina assert that Putin, like much of America, had bought into the self-congratulatory D.C.-bubble-inspired consensus that Trump was done-for, and that Hillary would walk away with the Presidency. The leaks about improprieties in her campaign and illegalities in the Lynch Justice Dept. were intended to weaken her as the new president, and possibly aid in bringing about her Impeachment, or some other equally crippling Constitutional Crisis.
Parenthetically, any Americans who hope for such an outcome are playing directly into Vladimir Putin’s hands
Vlad Putin’s worst nightmare is a USA that is the military, economic, and energy exporting 9,000-lb gorilla that Trump has vowed to turn America back into, and is on track for as of this writing. The Democrats also see this, and it is this fast-approaching Trump rebound which has them looking for diversions, to keep America from acknowledging the remarkable effectiveness of the new President Trump.
It is far more likely that the Democrat’s insistence that all focus their attention on this obvious contradiction that, “Putin wanted Trump to win,” is to keep folks from looking too closely elsewhere. History shows us that Liberals like to accuse their opponent of doing that thing which they themselves are guilty of. Doing so makes any subsequent investigation into the crime quite muddy… a confused “he said – she said” quagmire. Factor in widespread public distrust of the MS Media, and the truth seems even more diaphanous and illusory.
A large contributor to the current problem most American’s have with Media credibility has been the willingness of certain members of the mainstream media to ‘run interference for’ the Democrats generally, and for Clinton and Obama specifically.
As a note of related interest, CBS News on Wednesday issued a blanket denial of “any concrete evidence” proving the Clintons received cash from Russia, an assertion ridiculous on its face given the public record of $145-million dollars paid to The Clinton Foundation, and $500,000.00 dollars paid to Bill Clinton by a Russian bank for a “speaking fee,” while Hillary Clinton was Barack Obama’s Secretary of State. The recent bestseller, “Clinton Cash” by noted author and government watchdog, Peter Schweizer, lays all of this and much more out in exquisite, irrefutable detail.
The strange CBS News report was in direct response to two Tweets from president Trump asserting Clinton-Russian ties, asking why nobody seems to be interested in looking at that. The public record as well as many independent sources have long known about the apparent Clinton Foundation-Russian quid-pro-quo regarding 20% of America’s uranium rights. Compare that to several recent statements by both GOP and Democrat officials that they have seen no evidence linking Donald Trump to the Russians or Putin… none.
Abe Lincoln is quoted as having said, “If you throw a rock into a pack of dogs, the one that yelps is usually the one you hit.”
Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, and John Podesta, … might be a good place to start the real “Russia investigation…” …with a nod to CBS News for the tip.
What blithering idiots, these Dems are!
There is no top
There is no bottom
Only horizon shimmer
At times it’s like we’re watching a bad Saturday Night Live skit. These sphyncs have become ridiculous parodies of themselves, twisted “Joker”-style caricatures of real people. Between their breathless hysteria and the inanity of the positions they espouse, they look ready for the padded room.
I’m glad the President isn’t feeding into their insanity. He just goes on about his business while the Dems screech like a bunch of drunken parrots Russia, Russia, Russia!
I made the point that in general the people whom you have evidence of illegality on are the ones that you TRY to get elected. The Trump-Russian narrative doesn’t support this.
But think of other Russian interests.
They would like us to remove tactical nukes from Europe.
They would like us to let the military deteriorate.
They would like us to NOT develop our energy resources. A drop in oil price would have a massive impact on Russia economically.
They would not want us to build up our military intelligence.
They would not want us to develop our military technology.
They would not want us to be secure from terrorist attacks.
On each and every one of these issues, the candidate the Russians would NOT want to get elected would be Donald Trump.
I think most people who believe this story was falsified by a politicized intel community instinctively know this, but I think it is worthwhile to state it unequivocally.
Another saying of Abe's I like:
“No matter how much cats fight, there always seem to be plenty of kittens.”
If they move to impeach, I move that we teach them the Spandau Ballet.
I know this much is true.
Dems only know Clinton games. The accuse the accusers, lie about everything and therefore nothing walks backwards, sham ridicule and humiliate, never mix lies with truth, etc... It gets so old.
99% of Americans haven’t the slightest clue who Putin is, how he thinks, or how he is perceived in his country.
But many of them have opinions, and nearly every one is wrong.
Learning the Spandau Ballet is something only done once. Teaching it isn’t really hard, just sick.
Have you heard about this: http://joemiller.us/2017/03/really-happened-regarding-candidate-trumps-wiretaps/
Why isn’t this being talked about anywhere?
The media is doing the lying and denying for the democrats (Clinton/Obama) under the protection of the first amendment.
So many have crazy eyes that dart around, sort of Andy Kaufmann style. Also, why do the young female Dems talk with their voices stuck in their throats, (like muppets) and with a sort of gravelly growl? Almost every one of them. It is so strange!
The whole narrative of Russia wanted to elect Trump over Hillary always defied logic. But, logic never enters into it when libtards are yammering.
The sad thing is when we get to the bottom, the news will ignore the result and the Democrats will make up another lie to dominate the news cycle. Damn, 8 more years of this...it gets boring doesn’t it?
