Een lid
van Clintons verkiezingsteam, Seth Rich was zo pissig over de
handelswijze van Clinton en de top van dat team, dat hij een enorme
stapel mails van Clinton doorspeelde naar Wikileaks...... Een paar weken later
werd Rich vermoord op straat gevonden, volgens de politie een
roofmoord, hoe vreemd dan dat er werkelijk niets was gestolen van
Rich, terwijl hij ook opzichtig dure sieraden droeg....... (bovendien waarom zou je iemand 2 maal in de rug schieten als je deze wilt ontdoen van diens kostbaarheden en geld??)
Nee,
i.p.v. een Russische agent, bleek Trump de figuur die een enorme
legermacht heeft samengetrokken langs delen van de Russische
westgrens, waarbij hij nu ook nog de beschikking heeft over een
raketschild 'tegen Iran' maar waarvan de raketten in een mum van tijd
kunnen worden voorzien van meerdere kernkoppen en dat op raketten die
tot 5.000 kilometer kunnen vliegen, waardoor steden als Moskou en
Sint-Petersburg vanaf de voordeur van Rusland kunnen worden geraakt met kernraketten....
Met dat schild heeft de Trump administratie het INF-verdrag geschonden, iets waarvan de VS en haar oorlogshond NAVO Rusland volkomen ten onrechte beschuldigden....... (Rusland zou nieuwe raketten hebben die volgens de VS onder dat verdrag vallen, echter op meerdere uitnodigingen van het Kremlin om te komen inspecteren ging de VS niet in, daar de duivelse Trump administratie dondersgoed wist en weet dat Rusland de waarheid sprak......)

Lees het
volgende artikel van Caitlin Johnstone die dieper op deze zaak
ingaat en onder andere de stelling van Max Blumenthal steunt dat Russiagate een manier was om Trump zo onder druk te zetten dat hij wapens leverde aan Oekraïne (ben het daar deels mee eens, zeker daar ook wordt gesteld dat Obama Oekraïne niet wilde bewapenen, terwijl zijn minister van BuZa Joe Biden dat land onder druk zette het strafrechtelijk onderzoek tegen zijn corrupte zoon te stoppen, daar men anders een levering van wapens uit de VS kon vergeten):
Dem Convention Made No Mention Of Russiagate Or Impeachment, Because They Were Fake
Dem Convention Made No Mention Of Russiagate Or Impeachment, Because They Were Fake
Caitlin Johnstone <donotreply@wordpress.com>
The only interesting thing about either of the conventions held by America's two mainstream political parties this month was not anything that was said by the interminable parade of vapid speakers, but rather what those speakers did not say.
Despite
their dominating mainstream news cycles for years on end, at no time
during the four-day Democratic National Convention was the word
"impeachment" ever uttered, nor was any mention made of the
Mueller investigation into allegations of collusion between Trump and
the Russian government.
Eight months after Democrats mounted a historic effort to remove Donald Trump from office, not a single speaker uttered the word “impeachment” during their four-day convention.
...
For Democrats to completely omit impeachment from their convention was once unthinkable. Democrats had mounted a case that Trump had abused his power to blackmail Ukraine into investigating his political adversaries, including Biden. And they made an existential argument that without removing him from office, Trump’s behavior would get worse and democracy itself would be at risk.
...
Special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation of the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia — which Democrats once thought could topple Trump for obstruction of justice — also went unmentioned, even as it was a defining feature of Trump’s nearly four years in office.
At DNC, "the word 'impeachment' [was] entirely left out over the course of the 4-night event. Mueller’s investigation of the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia... also went unmentioned, even as it was a defining feature of Trump’s nearly 4 years in office." https://t.co/Dgt9WQ3LeA pic.twitter.com/q8EvEthwZq

"The
fact that Democrats couldn't bring themselves to even mention
Russiagate or Ukrainegate (the first-ever sequel to a flop?) at their
convention should maybe hasten some reflection for those who made
these issues the 'defining feature of Trump's nearly four years in
office,'" quipped
incisive Russiagate skeptic Aaron Maté of the omission on Twitter.
"Next
on Unsolved Mysteries: Democrats and media allies accused Donald
Trump of being a Russian agent for four years," Maté added.
"They chanted 'All Roads Lead to Putin' and 'The Walls Are
Closing In.' But at their political convention, they forgot all about
it. Did Russia give them amnesia?"
"I
personally feel like if the President of the US seeking re-election
is beholden to and controlled by an adversarial foreign power, the
opposition party should find a few seconds to squeeze in a mention of
it if, you know, it wasn't utter bullshit," tweeted
The
Intercept's
Glenn Greenwald.
And,
of course, it was utter bullshit. And that is indeed why the
Democrats saw no need to mention it at their own four-day convention
despite dominating news cycles with it for years. Russiagate and
Ukrainegate were never the cataclysmic scandals that the Democrats
and their allied media factions portrayed them as. They weren't even
actually about getting rid of Trump.
In an extremely strange and confounding development, the Democrats *never once* mentioned what this NYT columnist calls "the biggest lie in American politics" at their Convention.
In fairness, they only had 4 full nights so maybe they couldn't squeeze in any mention of it. https://twitter.com/michelleinbklyn/status/1295743070672162821 …

Anyone
with an ear to the ground knew that Russiagate would fizzle, and
anyone capable of counting Senate seats knew impeachment would fail
to remove Trump. The drivers of these attention-monopolizing
narratives knew this also.
If
there'd been any solid evidence to find that the Kremlin was
blackmailing Trump, or that his campaign had conspired with the
Russian government to steal the 2016 election, the US intelligence
community would have found some of it and leaked it to The
Washington Post
long before Trump took office. The Russiagate narrative has been
completely dismantled from the very beginning by journalists like the
late Robert Parry,
and then Maté after Parry's death. There was never any real
evidence for it, and the people pushing Russiagate from the beginning
knew there was never any real evidence for it.
All
you really need to know about Russiagate was that it was started by
unsubstantiated claims by the US intelligence community, and in the
end it facilitated pre-existing plans by the US intelligence
community. Everything else in between those two points is just empty
narrative fluff.
In
2017 Parry
documented
how the original assessment that Russia meddled in the US election in
the first place was put forward without proof by just a couple dozen
officers from three intelligence agencies hand-picked by the
notoriously
Russophobic
then-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper. Maté
has documented
that this allegation remains just as suspicious
and porous
as the day it was first made. Despite having sweeping investigative
powers Mueller indicted not one single American for conspiracy with
the Russian government. The recent evidence-free Senate Select
Committee on Intelligence report did
nothing to change the
flimsy nature of the entire Russiagate narrative.
So
the whole thing has been plainly bogus from the beginning, with the
foundation laid by secretive and unaccountable intelligence agencies
who have an
extensive history of lying
about exactly this sort of thing. And it just so happens to have
paved the way for operations against a longtime geostrategic foe that
were being unfolded well before Trump's arrival in
the White House.
In the last eighteen months, the greatest build-up of military forces since World War Two -- led by the United States -- is taking place along Russia's western frontier. Not since Hitler invaded the Soviet Union have foreign troops presented such a demonstrable threat to Russia.
Ukraine - once part of the Soviet Union - has become a CIA theme park. Having orchestrated a coup in Kiev, Washington effectively controls a regime that is next door and hostile to Russia: a regime rotten with Nazis, literally. Prominent parliamentary figures in Ukraine are the political descendants of the notorious OUN and UPA fascists. They openly praise Hitler and call for the persecution and expulsion of the Russian speaking minority.
This is seldom news in the West, or it is inverted to suppress the truth.
In Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia -- next door to Russia - the US military is deploying combat troops, tanks, heavy weapons. This extreme provocation of the world's second nuclear power is met with silence in the West.
This
was all happening during the Obama administration. But he was still
more doveish than the spooks and cold warriors who drive US foreign
policy would prefer, resisting for example loud calls from the
warmongers to arm
Ukraine against
Moscow and forcibly
install a no-fly zone
in Russia's ally Syria.
The
heir apparent to Obama's throne, Hillary Clinton, did not suffer from
such peacenik scruples. She'd already been making
people on both sides of the aisle nervous
with her anti-Russia hawkishness, and supported both arming
Ukraine
and installing
a no-fly zone
in Syria.
So
these escalations were already underway, and more were being prepared
for.
Then
what happened? Somehow a political neophyte who'd been talking
about making nice with Russia
got in instead.
We
suddenly found ourselves bombarded with narratives from the US
intelligence community and its mass media stenographers about Russian
election meddling and Trump playing some mysterious role in it. These
narratives were pushed with steadily increasing frequency and
shrillness, with the help of a humiliated Democratic Party that stood
everything to gain by participating, until those of us who expressed
any skepticism of them at all were being accused on a daily basis by
MSM-brainwashed dupes of running psyops for the Russian government.
We
were never at any time presented with any proof of these claims which
rose anywhere near the level required in a post-Iraq invasion world,
but we were hammered with them anyway, day in and day out, year after
year.
This
ended up putting a lot of political pressure on Trump to keep
existing sanctions and military tensions with Russia, and he ended
up adding dozens more new
cold war escalations including further sanctions, shredded nuclear
treaties, NATO expansionism and more. He even armed
Ukraine due
to these pressures, just like the anointed queen was scheduled to do.
For years, neocons and arms industry darlings like @RepAdamSchiff have sought to re-arm Ukraine and escalate the conflict in Donbas. By stirring up Russiagate, they finally got their deadly deal. My latest: https://www.truthdig.com/articles/russiagate-helped-secure-dangerous-arms-deal/ …
The
cold warriors wanted their escalations, and they got them. From
beginning to the end, that's all this was ever about. They pushed the
narratives, the media joined in because it was great
for ratings,
and the Democrats joined in because it took the focus off their 2016
scandals
and gave them a kayfabe phantom to punch instead of pushing
for actual progressive changes.
And
now the slow
motion third world war
between the US-centralized power alliance and the loose collective of
unabsorbed governments is right on schedule, with Biden all set and
ready to carry the omnicidal torch forward. The 2016 scandals are
well enough forgotten, no progressive changes have been made, and
there is no need to talk about Russiagate or impeachment at the
Democratic National Convention.
Because
everyone already got what they wanted. Everyone except ordinary
people, of course.
