I recently ordered your book, Dirty Rubbles. I'm waiting for it. My go to reply is, a glass eye in a duck's ass can see this. King Shitpants is destabilizing the country for Putin. It's mind blowing that's he's not even hiding it anymore.
What are the white Christian Nationalists billionaires connections with Russia? Or are they using Shitpants in the way the Russians are. I mean, everything is transactional for the fuckwad. Is there an underbelly of corruption led by Russian assets installed in the House and Senate?
And we all know this waste, fraud, and DEI (DEI is the n-word for Republicans) is a guise to look for vulnerabilities in our systems to enrich themselves and sell to other autocratic countries. We're in fucking trouble.
As a child of the Cold War Era, HTF did we let him become president...twice? If this were the mid 20th century, he'd have been permanently removed long ago.
Great question...and it implies that he had a lot of help in accomplishing that...it takes money, political power and complicity within the states.
Have the US GOP Senate and House members even considered immediate impeachment (Democrats have)...so, how many of those GOPers are implicated. I'm sure a rudimentary list is possible and is in order at this point. Action needs to be taken now, while it is still possible.
I subscribed just now, specifically to ask a related question. Where was the media before the election? So much of this dirt was known and documented then, even going back to 2016 and before.
Imagine Nixon being tied up with the Russians. Woodward and Bernstein would have been on the front page, above the fold, every day till the election. People were OK voting for a convicted felon, but I feel like voting for someone who was shown to be on Putin's payroll would have been a bridge too far and probably would have changed enough votes to cost Trump the election.
I understand that some of the mainstream media has been captured by the oligarchs. But all of it? This would have been the story of the century for whatever reporter broke the news. Where were they all?
There was a short published report that virtually all the CEOs of the Boards of Directors for all the broadcast networks and a lot of newspapers were all trumpers. The WaPo was owned by Bezos, very front and center with trump now. TwitterX was in Elon Musk's hands. The control came from the effective ownership. So, the story didn't get out much...and most importantly, not repeated endlessly like the GOP lies, with the serious targets being the swing states. Notice Kamala Harris did not do much with TV or newspapers due to the adversarial situation. In any invasive strategy controlling the flow of information is a key component. Many of the smaller weekly or bi-weekly papers did not emphasize national politics, their key interests were local.
You are right to think they should have made a difference...it's really an untold story in the details.
I don't really know. It was not as if his prior history was unknown...the Village Voice's Wayne Barrett started in on Trump in '79 and wound up writing two books about him. However, trump core cult didn't seem to get the gist of the story...or flat didn't care. And somehow came up with millions to support him, which I always found suspicious.
Sat 'thank you' to the John Birch Society, established 1957, supported by the Kochs.
They promoted a basic oligarchical society, run by big money who then chose the politicians and sat above the state governments. Sometimes via KKK, like Louisiana for a long time, patterned after the Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission that existed from 1956 to 1973, both run by the governors of their states using state money to set up White Citizen Councils and the like, actual white supremacy in action. They were formed in the wake of the Brown vs. Board of Education decision. That was 51 years ago.
DEI is an antidote to white supremacy and its biases. Trump and Musk openly opted for white supremacy with that action. Beat that drum in the coming two Florida representative elections. Get to the Cubans...tell them that Trump choosing Putin also means he is choosing Cuba and Castro-style dictatorship...they may get to go home soon. Nothing is permanent now. And Trump certainly doesn't respect Puerto Rico, except for cheap workers at Mar-a-Lago. That's where the administration's actions are leading. Find a strong voice to repeat and repeat and repeat the political message.
I knew the #2 person in the Louisiana Sovereignty Commission...it was very real, not a fiction. That person saw the error of their ways. Publicity got to them in the end. Trump and Musk are engaged in very dark matters...light kills it.
Thanks again Greg for summarizing Trump’s obvious ties to Russia! We discussed the issue of Trump being a confidential informant in his early years! Avoiding, being charged with the money laundering schemes he ran with crime syndicates on both coasts. The possibility of him being a double agent isn’t very likely, considering his low IQ,, yet has been tossed around! What say you? Exceptionally crafted piece as always Greg… what will it take for the rest of this country to recognize who Trump truly is??
"Death Of A Dissident" by Alexander Litvinenko describes in detail Putin's playback. Dipshit 4547 fits it perfectly. Why willingly become a Russian asset, actually puppet is a more apt description? Maybe too simple an explanation but dipshit could never achieve his dream of vast riches on his own, Vlad made getting wealthy easy, the lazy asshole simply got on the bandwagon. Along the way he got to fulfill his second objective, getting even with those he feels scorned him. This a big list, he being so thin skinned. Lastly, he was allowed to put his racism on full display, he could never be a closeted racist.
This lazy son of a bitch so easily sold himself to the devil, why? So he could feel self important while not working to achieve riches and fame, if indeed infamy.
"...why? So he could feel self important while not working to achieve riches and fame, if indeed infamy."
Yes, I think it's as simple as that. As you correctly pointed out, Trump is a lazy SOB, and having Putin's/Russia's/the USSR's help in achieving his overblown sense of self-importance cost him nothing except the historical infamy that comes from being an obvious traitor to his country. But, by the time history gets around to being written, he'll be dead. Benedict Arnold doesn't care what people say about him, and neither will Trump.
Nixon opened China, and I choose to blame him for all of this. It's become increasingly clear that the United States is under the curse of the Chinese proverb, "May you live in interesting times."
Thank you for your exhaustive research Greg. (I love Lisa59's (below), "a glass eye in a duck's ass can see this.") Further corroboration for one point you make, John Kiriakou, former CIA Operative and Analyst, confirmed that the moment that list of new hires was sent to the White House, their chance for a career as a CIA operative was over. This all continues to be beyond comprehension, especially for one like me, born while FDR was in office. But here it is. Can it be stopped?
"Peter Krasnov, served as a lieutenant general in the Imperial Russian Army during World War I and later led anti-Bolshevik (Royalist) forces during the Russian Civil War [executing many]." He was a last-minute include, in a repatriation of Russians fighting for the Nazis directly against the Bolsheviks
"The broken British promise to not hand Krasnov over to Soviet authorities was engineered by undetected [double-agent] and Soviet spy at MI6, Kim Philby [Director of Counter-intelligence], who knew about Krasnov's broken promise to the Soviet government back in late 1917 that he would not take up arms against the new regime in return for being released from prison."
Ancient history by the late 1980's, when Comrade Trump was asseted by the KGB. They must have been laughing their asses off at whoever came up with this code-name.
Fletcher Knebel and Charles Bailey: where are you now that we need you again? “The President is a KGB Asset” is a story right up your alley. I couldn’t make this shit up if you paid me a Hollywood paycheck.
We’ve suspected, or over time finally figured the now very obvious; Trump is a Russian asset and probably has been for quite a while now. The question is, how long are we going to allow his perfidy to continue? He’s an obvious danger, not only to us but to the rest of the world.

Agreed. But no one was willing to break the story? Mother Jones? Politico? The Guardian? Closer to mainstream, The Atlantic?
I understand the WaPo and the rest of the mainstream. But is the alternative press also captured?

Because they no longer exist, and what does exist are arms of big publishing companies - owned by Trumpers.
Yes, all of it!
50 years of Republican propaganda about "duh terryble libs."

Simple is generally the best explanation, thanks for your reply
Nixon opened China, and I choose to blame him for all of this. It's become increasingly clear that the United States is under the curse of the Chinese proverb, "May you live in interesting times."
Read "The 100 Year Marathon " by Michael Pillsbury.
The plsn for Hegemony
That's actually not an "ancient chinese proverb." It's something made up around 25 years ago, right here.
That figures! Good gods, Wikipedia has an entry! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_you_live_in_interesting_times
It’s TUESDAY🎉🎉🎉 EVERYONE should read your book, Dirty Rubles.
Thank you for your exhaustive research Greg. (I love Lisa59's (below), "a glass eye in a duck's ass can see this.")

Anyone who still needs *more* evidence that Trump is a Russian asset is incapable of hearing that evidence.
"Eyes wide shut"
About Trump's KGB code-name Krasnov:
From Wiki:
"Peter Krasnov, served as a lieutenant general in the Imperial Russian Army during World War I and later led anti-Bolshevik (Royalist) forces during the Russian Civil War [executing many]." He was a last-minute include, in a repatriation of Russians fighting for the Nazis directly against the Bolsheviks
"The broken British promise to not hand Krasnov over to Soviet authorities was engineered by undetected [double-agent] and Soviet spy at MI6, Kim Philby [Director of Counter-intelligence], who knew about Krasnov's broken promise to the Soviet government back in late 1917 that he would not take up arms against the new regime in return for being released from prison."
Ancient history by the late 1980's, when Comrade Trump was asseted by the KGB. They must have been laughing their asses off at whoever came up with this code-name.
Why Krasnov? Trump is
a) A Russian Imperialist
b) Nazi Sympathizer
c) Delusional.
Fletcher Knebel and Charles Bailey: where are you now that we need you again? “The President is a KGB Asset” is a story right up your alley. I couldn’t make this shit up if you paid me a Hollywood paycheck.
Trump is just the symptom.
Bill Browder has some solutions. People like Walter Isaacson should be called out for their gaslighting.
