It’s quite maddening, isn’t it? Committing crimes in plain sight while msm talking heads presume to read his mind, making statements like ‘he doesn’t seem to understand,’ while, as you said, immediately forgetting yesterday’s outrage (no response to Russian bounties) pursuing the bait he scatters daily. I believe this is really what he meant about shooting on 5th Ave.: the public’s attention span is microscopically small if manipulated correctly.

Perfection. I always feel connected to so many of you. This morning I was out taking a walk and thought about the Trump T. meeting and what paul Manafort wrote on his notepad. I thought of Natalia Veselnitskaya...on and on, replaying bits and pieces of what I could recall with surprisingly very little effort. Upon my returning home..I'm was glad to see this in my email box. It affirms much of what I'm still relatively stunned by.

That you are writing a variation of this same observation every few days is jaw-dropping and disheartening but truly necessary and brave. Granted there is some MSM willingness to engage, some chirps from IC but fear that both MSM and IC are deferring to "democratic elections" as if that possibility still genuinely exists. Remain faithful that we'll overcome, but I am truly afraid.

"Anger and fear is what gets people to the polls. The Democrats don’t matter. The real opposition is the media. And the way to deal with them is to flood their zone with shit.”

- Steve Bannon

And Trump and his cabal know exactly how to "flood the zone" with shit.

That’s a lot of crime. Like, a lot. Enough to put him away for decades. And still the media prattles on, treating Trump like any other incumbent, like he’s Dwight Fucking Eisenhower. And the rest of us wait like Vladimir and Estragon for yet another smoking gun.(article:Greg Olear)
