Progressive Democrats Are Determined to Destroy Trump by Hanging Him on a Fake Russian Cross

THE REAL NEWS AS WE START THE WEEK IS THAT THE RUSSIAN COLLUSION STORY IS BACKFIRING. Progressive Democrats still have the mainstream lapdog media with them but online media is full of ProgDem lies coming home to roost. • • • THE PODESTA BROTHERS BITE THE DUST. InfoWars, in an Exclusive on November 11, wrote that : "Tony and John Podesta are facing criminal indictments linked to the ongoing Russian probe, according to sources, which explains why they’re shutting down the Podesta Group, one of Washington’s most prominent lobbying and law firms." Sources told Infowars that Tony Podesta in particular was told to prepare for indictments because special counsel Robert Mueller’s entire case against former Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort goes through Podesta, and evidence suggests that Podesta has done everything Manafort is accused of doing, if not more. InfoWars says : “The Podestas might be used as sacrificial lambs for the Democratic Party.” • The Podesta Group is entangled in Mueller’s investigation after it was revealed that the law firm was recruited for public relations work in Ukraine by Paul Manafort and Rick Gates, both of whom were accused by Mueller last month of violating foreign lobbying laws. According to InfoWars : "Still reeling from the loss of the White House, the Democratic establishment is also trying to separate the Democratic Party brand from the Clintons and their close allies which, naturally, would include John Podesta, the former campaign chair for Hillary’s failed 2016 presidential bid....More and more evidence shows the Democrats are turning against the Clintons, who were once thought invincible but are now on the chopping block as the party realizes they’re destroying the brand and thus must be removed. We may not just only witness the fall of the Podestas but the Clintons as well.” • Kimberly Fritts, who was the Podesta Group’s CEO before she quit unexpectedly Friday, has said the lobbying firm will be shut down by the end of the year, adding that employees may not be paid after November 15. Infowars concluded : "The impending closing of the Podesta Group marks the downfall of one of Washington’s most influential law firms of the last 30 years and signals the continuing collapse of the Russia/Trump narrative peddled by the Clinton camp who were simply projecting." • • • TRUMP REFUSES TO PLAY THE PROGDEM GAME. Meanwhile, Fox News reported on November 10 that : "The mainstream media freaked out over a fake story about President Trump overfeeding fish in Japan and criticized him for not taking questions during a press conference in China, but several of Trump’s achievements from his Asia trip were under-reported. In other words, the anti-Trump media are, as usual, picking and choosing what to focus on based on their usual narrative." TheHill media journalist Joe Concha told Fox : “We've seen everything from the feeding frenzy around the false koi story where video was actually edited to make the president look like an unpolished rube to sanctimonious criticism around the president not taking questions while with the Chinese president when his predecessor [Barack Obama] also didn't take questions as well during his first trip there.” • In his speech in Da Nang, Vietnam, President Trump reiterated his “America First” message, saying he will not “let the United States be taken advantage of anymore,” while praising American Vietnam veterans. A gang of high-profile tweeters used The President’s speech to mock Trump for not fighting in the Vietnam War. But, his speech was about the Vets, not about re-fighting the Vietnam war. • While creating Fake attack issues against rupm, the MSM and Twitter users missed a key goal reached by President Trump -- numerous US companies announced $250 billion worth of deals in China, coinciding with Trump’s visit with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Boeing reached a $37 billion agreement to sell 300 planes to China. General Electric picked up three deals in China valued at a combined $3.5 billion. And, Qualcomm reached three nonbinding deals to sell $12 billion in semiconductors to Xiaomi, Oppo and Vivo over the next three years. None of the job-creating deals received the attention they deserved from mainstream media. Concha said : “Lost in all of this is the $250 billion dollar trade deal can actually impact our economy that gets relatively buried because it lacks sizzle and character assessments." -- And, because it tells a positive story about the good work Trump is doing for America and Americans. • The Associated Press even tried to undermine the impact of the announced deals, saying they are “more about the art of diplomacy than the art of the deal” -- a dig at the title of one of Trump’s books -- while painting the $250 billion agreements as “ceremonial” and “mostly about symbolism.” • Talk about Fake News -- and Media Research Center Vice President Dan Gainor got it -- repeating Concha's statement, telling Fox News that the mainstream media is “spinning a successful foreign policy trip into a disaster because that's how they want it perceived. They are manufacturing controversy. First we had the bogus koi fish story where Trump dumped the fish food into the pond doing exactly as Prime Minister Abe had done. Yet media tried to hype it as awful. Now we have journalists complaining Trump didn't take questions in China when Obama didn't either.” • And, in the worst Fake News to be aired, the Associated Press and most MSM in one way or another, tried to spin Trump's statement about Russian President Vladimir Putin into a truly FAKE NEWS "confession of Russian collusion." The AP reported that President Donald Trump said Saturday that "Russia’s Vladimir Putin again denied interfering in the 2016 US elections. But Trump declined to say whether he believed the Russian leader." GOT THAT?? Trump declined to say whether he agrees with Putin's version -- here is the AP report : “ 'He says he didn’t meddle. I asked him again. You can only ask so many times,' Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One on the trip to Hanoi, Vietnam. 'Every time he sees me, he said : ‘I didn’t do that.’ And I believe, I really believe that when he tells me that he means it.' ” • • • TRUMP IS TRYING TO DEAL WITH RUSSIA -- ESPECIALLY ON SYRIA. Unlike the Democrats and their lapdog media who try to use Rusia to beat Trump into a bloody colluding pulp. Trump DID NOT SAY THAT RUSSIA DID NOT INTERFERE -- Trump merely said that he believes that Putin believes Russia did not interfere. • But Trump made clear that the issue of Russian meddling in the election hovers over the leaders’ relationship. President Trump said Putin is “insulted” by the accusation. In a blistering partisan attack, Trump accused Democrats of using the election issue to create a barrier between the US and Russia as the nations work on crises in Syria and Ukraine. Trump told the media : “Having a good relationship with Russia’s a great, great thing. And this artificial Democratic hit job gets in the way." Trump said the probe into the election hacking was a “fake barrier” placed by Democrats that was hurting the United States’ ability to have a relationship with Russia, a distraction that is putting lives at stake. • AP took that to mean that Trump was once again casting doubt on the US intelligence community’s conclusion that Russia did try to interfere in the election : “Trump’s suggestion that he may believe Putin over his own nation’s intelligence community is certain to re-ignite the firestorm over the election meddling. Meanwhile, a special counsel investigation of potential collusion between Moscow and Trump campaign aides so far has resulted in two indictments for financial and other crimes unrelated to the campaign, as well as a guilty plea." AP DID NOT TELL THE WHOLE TRUTH -- the indictments and guilty plea have nothing to do with the Trump campaign or the President. • In fact, the Kremlin issued a statement Saturday saying that the leaders met during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation conference in Da Nang and reached agreement on several principles for the future of Syria, the civil war-torn country now that ISIS has largely been pushed out. Among the agreements’ key points, according to the Russians, were an affirmation of de-escalation zones, a system to prevent dangerous incidents between American and Russian forces, and a commitment to a peaceful solution governed by a Geneva peace process. The Kremlin quickly promoted the agreement as the White House stayed silent. Trump told reporters that the deal was reached “very quickly” and that it would save a number of lives. And he praised his relationship with Putin, saying : “We seem to have a very good feeling for each other and a good relationship, considering we don’t know each other well.” • According to the AP : "White House officials worked quietly behind the scenes negotiating with the Kremlin over a formal meeting. The Russians raised expectations for such a session and Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One en route to Asia that it was 'expected we’ll meet with Putin' to discuss issues including ramping up pressure on North Korea to halt its nuclear and ballistic weapons program. As speculation built, the two sides tried to craft the framework of a deal on the future of Syria that Trump and Putin could announce in a formal bilateral meeting, according to two administration officials not authorized to speak publicly about private discussions. Though North Korea and the Ukraine had been discussed, the two sides focused on trying to strike an agreement about a path to resolve Syria’s civil war once ISIS is defeated, according to officials. But the talks stalled and, minutes before Air Force One touched down in Vietnam, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters the meeting was off." • BUT, apparently, Trump's and Putin's staffs were able to hammer out the Syrian points that the Kremlin later announced. • How much better would it be if the US and Russian presidents could simply meet and try to form cooperative positions for issues -- like Syria, Iran, North Korea and Ukraine -- where the world needs any stabilizing efforts possible. But, that justd odes not fit the ProgDem version of the Russina interference fantasy and so the ProgDem media continues to turn every effort of President Trump to do his job into one more "gotcha" about the Fake Russian inrerference tale. • • • THE PROGDEMS HAVE THE RUSSIAN COLLUSION STORY BACKWARDS. The tale told by the ProgDems is that the Trump team colluded with hte Russina government to defeat Hillary Clinton and steal the presidency for Donald Trump. THE REAL STORY is that the Democrat National Committee, Hillary Clinton's campaign and its lawyer, and political 'dirt diggers' Fusion GPS and their hired henchman Christopher Steele to pull off what Kimberly Strassel of the Wall Street Journal Editorial Board rightly calls “one of the dirtiest tricks in US political history." Clarice Feldman of American Thinker put it this way : "Hillary hired a smear outfit (Fusion, headed by Glenn Simpson) which put together ludicrous claims, leaked them to willing press cohorts, including David Corn at Mother Jones, hired Christopher Steele (GPS) to concoct a fairytale about Donald J Trump and had Steele give the Dossier to the FBI in July 2016. Then press megaphone Michael Isikoff at Yahoo News -- obviously tipped off by Steele -- reported, 'US intel officials probe ties between Trump advisor and Kremlin.' ” Feldman says that, having generated this nonsense, Hillary & Co, having passed the smear Dossier to the FBI, then shared the news of that handoff to Isikoff. AND Hillary : “jumped all over it, spinning its own opposition research as a government investigation into Mr. Trump. She and her surrogates hit the airwaves with it....it is fair to ask if the entire Trump-Russia narrative -- which has played a central role in our political discourse for a year, and is now resulting in a special counsel issuing unrelated indictments -- is based on nothing more than a political smear document. Is there any reason to believe the FBI was probing a Trump-Russia angle before the dossier? Is there any collusion allegation that doesn’t come in some form from the dossier? The idea that the federal government and a special counsel were mobilized -- that American citizens were monitored and continue to be investigated -- based on a campaign-funded hit document is extraordinary. Especially given that to this day no one has publicly produced a single piece of evidence to support any of the dossier’s substantive allegations about Trump team members." • Conrad Black calls the Hillary & Co smear “a Gordian knot of absurdity....No one seems to have noticed that the Democrats are now making unctuous noises about the inviolability of a process that has disintegrated into utter nonsense. According to the bipartisan leadership of the Senate Intelligence Committee, the Steele dossier is the only possible evidence of Trump-Russian collusion, and we now know that it was composed of unsubstantiated allegations by unaccountable sources in and around the Kremlin, paid through intermediaries engaged by a retired British spy and paid for by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee through the sleazy political dirty-tricks provider Fusion GPS. • Take a deep breath and read that Conrad Black prose again -- then move on to his continuation : "We also know that the special counsel, Robert Mueller, and the deputy attorney general who engaged him, Rod Rosenstein, were, as FBI director and US attorney for Maryland, the prosecutors of the Russian representatives who offered improper incentives to secure Russian acquisitions of substantial American uranium interests, but did not bother the Clintons or Clinton Foundation, which contemporaneously were generously paid by those who favored that transaction, at a time when Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s approval was required under national-security legislation. We also now know it is likely that the Steele dossier was used as the excuse for surveilling Tryump and his team." • So, the Hillary smear Trump Dossier was prepared by sleaze balls and given to the FBI that ran with it to create a special counsel by appointing the FBI sleazers who were in charge of the fake investigation of Uranium One that left Bill and Hillary untouched after their pay-to-play scheme with the Russians pocketed $145 million for their Foundation. • Got it??? • This is what the Progressive Democrats nad their propagansdist media call the Trump team commusion with Russia to steal the 2016 election -- NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH. It was the DNC, Hillary & Co, and the FBI that created Russian collusion to help Hillary -- undoubtedly thinking that she could not possibly lose to Trump and his Deplorables, so their deceit and sleaze would be tucked away in the bowels of the FBI forever. • • • TO TIE IT ALL TOGETHER. What better than to send two known perjurers to CNN to tell the 'real' story as spun by Hillary & Co. • On Sunday, former CIA Director John Brennan told CNN that President Trump called him a political hack in order to cast doubt on his and other intelligence agencies' conclusion that Russia sought to influence the 2016 election. Brennan said : “Well first of all he was referring to us as political hacks because he was trying to delegitimize the intelligence community assessment that was done.” • Trump on Saturday had said that Brennan, James Clapper and former FBI director James Comey are political hacks : "Those leaders were in charge at the time that a declassified report from those three agencies was released in early January finding that Russia called for an influence campaign aimed at interfering in the United States election. And then you hear it's 17 agencies. Well, it's three. And one is Brennan and one is whatever. I mean, give me a break. They're political hacks. So you look at it -- I mean, you have Brennan, you have Clapper, and you have Comey. Comey is proven now to be a liar and he's proven to be a leaker.” Trump also said he believes Russian President Vladimir Putin “means it” when he denied Moscow meddled in the United States election, and he said he would not "argue" with Putin's denials. After receiving backlash, Trump clarified : “I believe that he feels that he and Russia did not meddle in the election. As to whether I believe it or not, I'm with our agencies, especially as currently constituted, with their leadership." Brennan noted that he, Clapper, and Comey did not author the January report, saying other intelligence officers did : “It’s very clear that the Russians interfered in the election and it’s still puzzling as to why Mr. Trump does not acknowledge that, embrace it and also push back hard against Mr. Putin." The reason, as Brennan must know, is that the whole Steele Dossier is a Fake. • Former director of national intelligence James Clapper was in lockstep with Brennan on Sunday. Clapper told CNN -- did he and Brennan coordinate in the green room before being interviewed? -- that it’s “very naïve” to think Russia will act with good intentions toward the United States : “And I think it’s very naïve, and again, in fact, perilous to this country, to make an assumption that Russia is going to behave with the best interests of the world or the United States in mind. They’re not.” • • • DEAR READERS, Never. Never. Never has President Trump said that Russia has "the best interests of the United States in mind." That is part of the Hillary & Co sleaze -- an attempt to turn the real ProgDem collusion with Russia into a story about Trump thinking Russia loves America? Bull Hockey, as an old friend used to say. Trump DID NOT SAY THAT RUSSIA DID NOT INTERFERE -- OR THAT RUSSIA LOVES AMERICA. Trump merely said that he believes that Putin believes Russia did not interfere. President Trump is merely trying to work with a country that -- for good or bad -- is a key player in the Middle East, North Korea, and Ukraine. So what if the Russians do not harbor good intentions toward the United States. Is there any American who hasn't known that ever since 1917?? There are no "illusions" or "ambiguity" about it. President Trump know it as well as all of us do, and probably a lot better because he is now wading through the underbrush in his efforts to make the best of a tenuous relationship made more tenuous because of Hillary & Co and the ProgDems determined to destroy Trump by hanging him on a Fake Russian cross.
