Double dirty deed: Anti-Russia smear campaign also targets Trump
RT ^ | June 18, 2016 | Finian Cunningham

Posted on 06/18/2016 12:30:10 PM PDT by Founding Father

Sensational reports of Russian government spies hacking into the Democrat party’s computers weren’t the usual anti-Moscow smear job. Republican presidential contender Donald Trump also took a hit in the double whammy. The abrasive business tycoon may have a popular following among grass roots voters, but he has managed to garner powerful enemies within the American establishment. Not least large sections of the corporate news media, the military and foreign policy arms of US government.

Russia is for Trump. No one wants Hillary. Exposing the DNC plan against Trump only helped Trump.

The Neolibs are desperate for a war with Russia to prop up the dollar. They hate Trump because he won’t play their game.

Maybe reaching... I’m thinking Russia could be in a position to be more supportive of US interests than the wonks in DC can accept. The reason: China, a country fast becoming the second Super (if not already.) I would be weary of having such in my immediate neighborhood, esp while in a diminished state of power that Russia is currently. If Russia itself cannot be a super again in the forseeable future then it seems they’d want to both contain the growth of the nearby up-and-coming and keep the only existing super on the otherside of the world. I can see Putin’s strategy for a Trump presidency as it is possible Trump would both wind-down or scale-back NATO and keep China busy on the negotiating table/inhibit Chinese expansion. Clinton will almost certainly be the opposite of this.

Still don’t like the idea of a foreign nation playing games with our election (if that is ever found to be the case.) It is just as easy to see Clinton going all-in with the “mean” Russia “bad” Trump hand when the flop comes down as a DNC cyber break-in. Sincerely believe they do not have evidence to link it to Russian ops.

The WaPo has become corrupt even by leftist media standards.

I think the story lays it out pretty well; WaPo is leading the "gang" (includes the Big defense group going insane at the thought of Trump making countries pay us to defend them...the countries won't of course because they can't, not to mention pulling back from NATO somewhat, and even the UN folks that know we'll cut our contributions significantly with a Trump presidency), with this made up story to bring down Trump.

Ha! As if the Dem side of the uni-party needs to do anything at all, with the RINOs (sorry, they are the republican side of the uni-party, it's the smaller gov't folks that are the true Rinos) doing all they can.

The only thing more unreliable than the Washington Post is Russia Today. Owned by Putin’s oligarchs.

Yep. Pretty much every nation out there correctly views Shrillary as a stupid old witch who should be making pies in her husband’s house instead of policies in the White House. At most they only like her because she’s exceptionally stupid and easily corruptible, but right beneath that she ranks below stray dogs in their eyes.

But Trump has their respect. Oh, they’ll hate him because he might actually kill their spies and terrorist goons - but even the most evil man alive will respect a good man who stands tall and strong.

Ever stop to think that RT is nothing more that a “Disinformatiza” or “Disinformation” outlet for the Putin regime.

If you want to know how the Soviets handled Disinformation, Misinformation, white, black and gray propaganda, forgeries, etc. get the following:

‘The KGB Against the “Main Enemy”: How the Soviet Intelligence Service Operates Against the United States’,Herbert Romerstein (former CPUSA member, 50 year US govt internal security specialist) and Stanislav Levchenko (KGB defector, Arlington Books, Lexington Books, 1989 and the two Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, House of Representatives, 96th Congress 2nd Session, Hearings before the Subcommittee on Oversight, entitled:
* Soviet Active Measures”, hearings 97th Congress 2nd Session, July 13, 14, 1982

* “Soviet Cover Action (The Forgery Offensive)”, hearings Feb. 6, 19, 1980

Publications of the State Department’s Bureau on Soviet Disinformation Programs, 1980’s.

Roy Godson’s massive book on Soviet Propaganda operations.

Some of us have just stopped an old psychopathic Marxist named Webster Tarpley writing for RT. He was a key member of Lydon LaRouche’s old Marxist National Caucus of Labor Committees (NCLC) and then succeeding LaRouche fronts. Now he shows up at the old Socialist Scholars’ Conference renamed the Left Forum (2016), again espousing his Marxist ideology.

Why would an extremist like this be showing up on RT (Russian TV) unless he was helping them against America.

Disinformation, anyone?

Well reasoned insight.

What happens in the next year will determine the fate of the USA over the next 75 years.

Gotta give the Putin credit for knowing how to handle muslims and standing up for his own people. Let’s pray Trump will take similar actions.

Ain't "flexibility" great?

Evidently Nero was a contortionist fiddler too.

I’ve been watching RT for awhile.... they’re infinitely more honest and accurate than ANY US “news” organisation. They just tell the truth.

Everything is propaganda. You have to have a solid BS detector to sift through it all.
