    This is how hater really gets hurt.
    Looking at it like some MMA match.
    No wonder he hated Obama. He had no time to entertain the silly stuff while Trump bathes in it for the 1/3.

    He's a different breed of cat, he doesn't get the same feels you get.
    I generally agree Russia's efforts had little overall effect, but it wasn't for a lack of trying. The question is, whether we should put up with active efforts of an intelligence agency of a foreign government to attack the very idea of democracy itself. Western liberal democracy is under threat from authoritarian regimes. That is important.

    There is also the matter that the sitting president appears to be actively compromised by that same government.

    But then, predicting what Trump will, or won't do is sort of a mugs game. He never fails to do the stupidest possible, just when you think he can't be dumber.

    The thing about a good theory though, it that it both explains facts, and you can make testable predictions.

    Fact 1:
    Russia attempted to hack our electoral process through a multi-pronged attack.

    Fact 2:
    Donald "look how big my inauguration crowd was" Trump has done nothing but deny this even happened, and has gone so far as to take the extraordinary effort to delegitimize his own intelligence services when they something did happen. He has shown no willingness whatsoever to hold Russia to account for anything.

    Fact 3:
    Donald Trump has a pattern of criticizing anyone, and everyone at the drop of a hat. Allies, enemies, courts, free press, nothing has escaped his remarks and twitter feed, except for ONE/(two) thing(s), and that is Russia/Putin

    Fact 4:
    Russian efforts appeared designed to support Trump

    Fact 5:
    Trump directly called on Russia publicly to support his efforts to get elected.

    Fact 6:
    Donald Trump has gone out of his way to meet and talk with Putin privately in person, with no American witnesses. This is the only leader with which he has acted in this manner.

    Fact 7:
    Donald Trump, when forced to sign a bipartisan sanctions bill passed with a veto-proof majority of both houses of Congress, issued a signing statement saying most of it was uncons utional, and that his administration would enforce it as little as possible.


    Fact 8:
    when Russia retaliated against sanctions by forcing the US embassy to cut staff, Trump thanked Putin for the action, making him look weak, something he has said one should never do, and is inconsistent with his past behavior in any other regard.

    Fact 9:
    Shortly after State Department appoves some material arms sales to Ukraine and Tillerson directly calls out Russia for using nerve gas in Britain, he is fired.

    Theory:
    Donald Trump has been compromised in some way. Either he directly owes them money, or they have evidence of some kind of him breaking the law or doing something he does not want others to know about.


    This theory explains those facts, and is fully consistent with observed reality.

    Prediction:
    Donald Trump will take no action personally, nor will he criticize Russia or Putin in any way in regards to the Russian attack on our elections. He may allow his underlings to do some minor, inconsequential stuff, and if forced to do anything by Congress will drag his feet, if not outright attempt to veto any sanctions.


    The way to falsify the theory:
    1) Trump criticizes Putin/Russia (good)
    2) Trump orders/takes action that materially harms Russian interests (definitive)

    Bull conspiracy theories fail very often because either: they cannot be falsified, or they directly conflict with observed reality. This theory can be falsified, and does not conflict with what we know as fact.

    Donald Trump is unpredictable except for Russia.


    This theory predicts that Trump will not support May in either action or words, despite his past support for her.

    All in Hateraide:

    The Guardian. U.K.,US, France, Germany all agree.

    We share the UK assessment that there is no plausible alternative explanation, and note that Russia’s failure to address the legitimate request by the UK government further underlines its responsibility.”

    So you think it was Russian government order, standing decision left up to the brotherhood of spies, or some Russian spies in the UK went rogue? Russia is going to have to find out, or not, and face more financial hurts. These are vacation spots and places where serious Russian money holds assets.




    And this is what is so ironic. Russians with $ are not gonna keep that cash in Russia, because it could be gone in a Vlad decision, or just overall worthless. They gotta keep their money in the West if they want the goods. This then leads the West to have a stranglehold on the Russian big wigs. If Russia had a working economy like the West, this would not be necessary. And unlike China, Russian products can be largely dismissed as unecessary. They hold zero financial cards. Especially with the US petroleum capabilities at endless due to new technologies and finds. The threat to shut down gas pipelines has led to a US market!

    So the Russian people deserve this because the Russian leaders can't make their own country work?
    HATER APPLAUDES THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE SUFFERING DUE TO INCOMPETENCE AND CORRUPTION.

    Nikolai Glushkov, Russian Exile Linked To A Putin Critic, Dies In London

    Nikolai Glushkov, a Russian exile who was a close friend of a noted critic of President Vladimir Putin, has died from an "unexplained" cause in London, police say. The Metropolitan Police says that its counterterrorism unit is handling the case "because of associations that the man is believed to have had."

    Glushkov, 68, was a close friend of Russian oligarch Boris Berezovsky, a prominent critic of the Kremlin who was found dead in 2013. At the time, an inquiry found he had hanged himself — but Glushkov publicly disputed the idea that his friend and former business ally would have killed himself.

    As British media began reporting Glushkov's death, the police issued a statement saying, "An investigation is underway following the death of a man in his 60s in Kingston borough."

    The London Ambulance Service had called police after being summoned to a house in New Malden, where the man was found dead.

    "The death is currently being treated as an unexplained," police said, adding that the Metropolitan Police Counter Terrorism Command is leading the investigation as a precaution.

    Police said that they believe they know the man's iden y and that his family has been notified, but that officials are still awaiting a formal identification.

    Ok then, again.

    Wonderful timing.

    Channel One's Director for News Programmes, Kirill Kleimyonov, delivered the commentary, which concluded with an admonishment for "exclusively pedagogical purposes" to those who "dream of a career of a traitor to the motherland": "The profession of a traitor is one of the most hazardous in the world." He delivered another one "for a broader audience": "Don't choose England as a next country to live in. Whatever the reasons, whether you're a professional traitor to the motherland or you just hate your country in your spare time, I repeat, no matter, don't move to England.

    Thewarning above is certainly to be taken seriously.

    On the 8th March we reported that the story of double agent Sergei Skripal was not what it seemed at first sight. We reported that there was a major difference between Alexander Litvinenko and Sergei Skripal, which is not being reflected in the media. Skripal is a traitor, a double agent who sold the iden ies of hundreds of Russian agents abroad to the UK, in exchange for hard cash. He is even a traitor to Britain. He may very well have caused the deaths of some of those Russian agents operating in conflict zones. Skripal had many, many enemies.

    We also reported unlike the mainstream media (at the time) that Nerve agents including Sarin and VX are manufactured by the British Government in Porton Down, just 8 miles from where Sergei Skripal was attacked with a so-called Novichok.

    Today, we have reported that an ex UK Ambassador has confirmed that the Novichok Story Is Indeed Another Iraqi WMD Scam

    On 12th March we exposed what Skripal did for a living with confirmation from a former Russian intelligence officer who now lives in exile in Britain. He said Skripal was still working with Russian military intelligence.

    “You have a Russian military intelligence officer working in the Russian diplomatic service, living after retirement in the U.K. working in cybersecurity and every month going to the [Russian] embassy to meet military intelligence officers.”

    Will the US and Israel attack Syria together? The Kuwaiti daily Al-Jarida on Saturday reported that the US and Israel are working on a plan to attack Syria. According to the report, Jerusalem and Washington are disappointed in Russia’s involvement. Sources close to Washington told Al-Jarida that the Trump administration may present such an attack as a response to claims of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s recent use of chemical weapons.

    Heightened conflict in Syria

    Israel have grown weary of the Syrian conflict. They see Iran and Russia as a threat. America is weary of the Syrian conflict. Donald Trump wants this conflict over as soon as. The war in Syria has been raging now for seven years with no end in sight.

    With Iran and Russia supported by China essentially fighting the US led coalition forces, the tension has now reached boiling point and with so many international forces operating in such close proximity, the danger now exists that any mistake could trigger a larger conflict outside Syria.

    A final push to end the conflict begins a very dangerous stage. Allies on both sides have been called to arms.

    If the US government owned 51% of Fox it would be the voice of American government.

    The Russian government owns 51% of Channel One; Channel One is one voice of Russian government.

    RT is an official government-run news site. Pure propaganda and total bull . It is inferior even to Fox news, and that is saying something.

    Don't you have some boots to be licking?

    Do you think that Putin should be killing his critics?

    Actually their newsfeed is quick and dynamic much more so than cnn, fox which are slow and old fashioned

    It is similar to huffpost in that way

    In the nd they are all propaganda but still a good news source.

    Well agree to disagree

    The former Soviet scientist, Vil Mirzanyanov, who 'blew the whistle' and wrote about the 'Novichoks', now lives in a $1 million home in the United States. The AFP news agency just interviewed him about the recent incident:

    Mirzayanov, speaking at his home in Princeton, New Jersey, said he is convinced Russia carried it out as a way of intimidating opponents of President Vladimir Putin.
    "Only the Russians" developed this class of nerve agents, said the chemist. "They kept it and are still keeping it in secrecy."

    The only other possibility, he said, would be that someone used the formulas in his book to make such a weapon.


    so basically the guy is sayin its definitely Russia OR SOMEONE THAT READ THE FORMULA ON MY BOOK

    Mueller Time

    Dis niga gets around

    WASHINGTON - In the immediate aftermath of the 2001 anthrax attacks, White House officials repeatedly pressed FBI Director Robert Mueller to prove it was a second-wave assault by Al Qaeda, but investigators ruled that out, the Daily News has learned.

    After the Oct. 5, 2001, death from anthrax exposure of Sun photo editor Robert Stevens, Mueller was "beaten up" during President Bush's morning intelligence briefings for not producing proof the killer spores were the handiwork of terrorist mastermind Osama Bin Laden, according to a former aide.

    "They really wanted to blame somebody in the Middle East," the retired senior FBI official told The NY Daily News.

    No you don't. RG must think you are willingly ignorant. Or a paid shill, which is laughable because you are so bad at this.

    Ex.

    Obama adm was very secretive about the drone war and deaths caused by the drone war.

    How does the World know, the Washington Post:

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/world...=.54040e95a43f

    There are a huge number of articles like this critical of ALL of our presidents and administrations. It's their job. And you have the complete daftness to compare this to a GOVERNMENT run RT news. You cannot possibly be this stupid.

    In addition, you want rapid and dynamic, then you keep up with your CNN, FOX, and govt run RT and you will get immediacy. And it will be be accompanied by analysis based on a tiny amount of information that is wrong. Because no time is given for more important facts to unfold. You are after the latest gossip like an old woman, not the truth. You are why CNN, FOX even exist and are watched. "I want my presents NOW mummy" Immediate gratification for your bizzare views are easy to find.

    *pulls sword out of hater's body cavity*

    But the ignorant zombie survives.
