It's two minutes you didn't spend in the echo chamber that he's talking about, so that's a net positive. Still...

Jaws Drops As Rachel Maddow Shows How Russia Pulled Trump’s Strings In N. Korea Summit

Maddow said:

The other entity that really wants the U.S. To stop its joint military exercises with South Korea,

the other country that has been increasingly insistent that those exercises are proven provocations and they must stop,

the country that has been speaking out on that more and more in the last couple of years specifically is North Korea’s other abutter.

Here’s Russia. March of 2016.

Expressing their opposition to South Korean-US military exercises.

Here’s Russia again March of 2017 when those same US-South Korean joint military exercises rolled around again the same time the next year because they’re annual exercises.

But Russia’s starting to get a little more bold in the past year or two in expressing

their opposition to the U.S.

participating in these joint military exercises.

There is Russia in December 2017 getting even pushier about it,

sending the head of the Russian armed forces to the Russian city that is nearest to that little sniglet of the North Korean border to personally proclaim his opposition to the U.S. Forces —

to U.S. Forces participating in these joint military operations with South Korea.

Russia has just this tiny little border, 11-mile-long border with North Korea, with one crossing on a train and

they’ve got a troubled and varied history with that country.

But Russia is also increasingly straining at its borders right now and shoving back U.S. And western influence, especially U.S.

And western military presence, anywhere near what it considers to be its own geopolitical interests.

And one of the things that they have started to loudly insist on is that the U.S. drop those joint military exercises with South Korea.

The U.S. Has kept those going as a pillar of U.S. National security strategy for, ooh, 70 years now.

Until last night. When Trump casually announced that that’s over now, he’s doing away with those.

Blindsided everybody involved.

And gave North Korea something they desperately want and would do almost anything for.

Except he gave it to them for free.

How come?

Rachel Maddow found the Russia connection

When people ask

what Putin wanted to gain from elected Donald Trump,

the answer, at least in part, is that

he wanted to both have his own foreign policy unchecked and be able to make US foreign policy.

The North Korea summit is the latest occasion where

Trump has given into Russian interests without an explanation.

Trump has done the same thing in Syria.

He has weakened the Western alliance just as Putin wanted.

Donald Trump’s foreign policy is Putin’s foreign policy,

and if you want to understand why Trump made a move that blindsided everyone,

the first place to look is Russia and Putin.

It’s Almost Like a Pattern

https://[email protected]

The list of these seems all but limitless.

From The Wall Street Journal, January 18, 2018.

The reference to “around the same time” is summer 2017, just after President Trump met with Vladimir Putin in Hamburg at the G-20 Summit.

Around the same time, Mr. Trump had an idea about how to counter the nuclear threat posed by North Korea,

which he got after speaking to Russian President Vladimir Putin :

If the U.S. stopped joint military exercises with the South Koreans,

it could help moderate Kim Jong Un’s behavior.

Defense Secretary Jim Mattis used an approach that aides say can work:

“He says, ‘Your instincts are absolutely correct,’ and

then gets him [the president] to do the exact opposite of what his instincts say,”

said one person close to the White House.

Mr. Trump dropped the idea,

although he has ordered aides to give the exercises a low profile,

eliminating press releases and briefings about them.

Whether the troll farm’s indictment is make-believe or not, Mueller has yet to indict anyone—let alone any Russian—for Russiagate’s underlying crime: the theft of Democratic Party e-mails. And more than a year after they accused the Russian government of carrying it out, intelligence officials have yet to produce a shred of proof.


The January 2017 intelligence report begat an endless cycle of innuendo and unverified claims, inculcating the public with fears of a massive Russian interference operation and suspicions of the Trump campaign’s complicity. The evidence to date casts doubt on the merits of this national preoccupation, and with it, the judgment of the intelligence, political, and media figures who have elevated it to such prominence.

Amazing. Nation must allow this shit for editorial "balance", but of course, this nothing-to-see-here BULLSHIT doesn't balance the huge pile of incriminating shit the Mueller has.

That Mueller hasn't indicted any biggies (Flynn is damn big and was very close to Trash, (who kept contacting Flynn after Flynn was fired, was a Trash favorite) and who was very close with Russians) means that he can't, that he won't?

Two new Trump campaign operatives just had their secret meetings with Russian Ambassador exposed

The parallels between Russian interference in the 2016 U.S presidential election and in the Brexit campaign for the United Kingdom to leave the European Union are uncanny

and raising suspicions that Russia’s cyberwar on the members of the NATO alliance was more widespread and effective than anyone has yet to admit.

two major British political operatives involved in the pro-Brexit campaign were in regular contact with the Russian ambassador to the UK while they campaigned for, and met with, Donald Trump in the United States in 2016, according to a review of emails and social media posts.

Arron Banks and Andy Wigmore

were both heavily involved in the successful effort to get Britons to vote to leave the EU,

with Banks donating more than 8 million pounds (nearly $11 million) to the pro-Brexit campaign.

That donation is now being investigated by Britain’s Electoral Commission amid concerns of Russian involvement.

Once the Brexit vote was won, the two men traveled to the U.S. where they attended several Trump rallies and the final pre-election presidential debate, at least once along with Nigel Farage from the United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP), a leading pro-Brexit politician.

After the election, Banks and Wigmore met with Trump at Trump Tower during the transition phase.

Throughout this entire period,

the two men kept in steady contact with the Russian ambassador in London.

CNN reviewed emails that show dozens of correspondences between the Russian embassy officials and the two men, including lunch and embassy event invitations.

Trump’s White House Counsel just made a startling admission about the Russia probe

A former Trump White House Counsel just revealed a significant fact about the precarious situation that both the President and his lawyers stand in as subjects of a criminal investigation.

It turns out that

White House Counsel Don McGahn took an unusual step to separate himself and his entire office from the Russia probe.

That, in turn, explains why President Trump isn’t on speaking terms with McGahn, who is still a high ranking official.

The White House Counsel’s office’s recusal is a significant new sign of the scope and seriousness of Mueller’s investigation into the firing of FBI Director James Comey and attempts to influence the Special Counsel and Congressional investigations by all of Trump’s “best people.”

https://washingtonpress.com/2018/06/...-russia-probe/

Hmmm reminds me of that time my guhhhh Louise Mensch said Rosenstein was ordered to write two memos. One for the pros for Comey. One for the negatives.

is she geotagged at the crystal level on floor 62?
