Hi Greg! Right on the money, as usual. Trump continues to be a very dangerous weapon and I wish more Americans would understand this. If something is not done about him soon, I fear there may be another January 6th when his cult followers refuse to accept election results (in 2024) and come out in even greater numbers armed to the teeth.

A very cogent presentation. My observation is that djt is the instrument of choice to create Helter Skelter, Charlie Manson's sketchball scheme to ignite race war in the USA

Thanks 4 all you've done. Defeated, I'm leaving this rite hurr

If my brain is an egg; it’s scrambled.

What do you think it will take for more Americans to believe this story you write about: Trump the Puppet, the Destroyer?

Incitement for a 2nd civil war seems like a long-term investment made by the Russians, who may be imminently hoping to cash in. However, I think what you have described is war being waged against NATO. And, perhaps the organization should be considering how to appropriately crush those Russians, and other criminals.

Which leaves the question open: what’s to be done with Trump, and his cult of followers?

Sorry this is long. I wrote it 30 seconds before starting your article. I think 45 + trumpests + Putin & ilk are part of the ecosystem described here:

Buddy can you spare a dime?

How about a nickel in my cup to help me get a cup of clean water?

What's that you say about Calvinism and prosperity gospel and God helps those who help themselves?

What the hell does that have to do with not allowing the destruction of the environment and killing people? Tell me!

Let's all pull off the blinders and get the ear plugs out of our ears and pay attention to the non-stop sellout of us and the earth by gubmint and the fascistic oligarchs pulling the strings of politics, education and socio/economic dynamics. There's only one reason crap like what's described in this article and attached links happens. Human life is a cheap and expendable raw material for extraction based capitalism, just like earth's resources.

It's a runaway train. We have to get serious about stopping this kind of destructive activity and convert the energy towards remedial and restorative and sustainable action, and stop the momentum of this 6th global extinction.

Note PFAS & related microscopic industrial compounds are referred to as forever chemicals: highly toxic, pass filtration and extremely difficulty to capture, break apart and neutralize.

Thank you,Greg.

Succinct, and even very succinct, it's still a very long list of treason and horror. It's hard to read, and most of all, it would never have succeeded without many many compromised GOP operatives. And we still have the astonishing popularity of Trump with his base BECAUSE THEY LOVE BULLIES, and dream of being successful bullies like #MangoWanker Turdking.

Brilliant! I plan to re-share this repeatedly throughout the hearings.

Scary as hell, but how can anyone deny what was played out in plain sight? And he was so arrogant about it, too: ‘I like to play it down, Bob’, he said to Woodward on the Covid stats. He’s toxic. Great piece, Greg.

Greg - I hate The Orange Slob as much as you do. However, just for giggles, if tRump is "owned" by Vlad the Impaler:

1. Why did tRump stop the building of Nordstream pipeline, between Germany & Russia, which Biden permitted?

2. Why did tRump increase sanctions on Russia in regards to Ukraine?

3. Why did tRump sell anti aircraft missiles to Ukraine?

4. Russia is a Petro state. NOTHING is as important to them as price of oil. Trump hurt them considerably by encouraging fracking which significantly boosted US oil supply and lowered global oil price.

5. Some are predicting once Nordstream is complete, Russia will not be dependent on the pipeline that passes through the Ukraine to sell fuel to Germany. It will stop paying Ukraine the transit fee, a major source of foreign currency for the poor country. Biden did this, not tRump.

Russians are expert at this tactic. They want us isolated, divided, sick, violent toward each other, broke, and demoralized. They want our institutions eroded. They want our alliances broken. Greg Olear July 2021(article)
