January 24, 2019: Russia! Russia! Russia!, tRUMPspeak, Face of Treason



Not only did I never work for Russia, I think it's a disgrace that you even asked that question, because it's a whole big fat hoax.”

     ---America's Caesar Disgustus responding to questions on the White House lawn

Alright let's translate. Whatever the pathological liar in the White House says is untrue; truth is known to stand at polar opposite of whatever comes from his mouth. Therefore to properly interpret tRUMPspeak, what our faux Caesar really said is this: “Yes, I'm a Russian agent, and it is very important that you ask that question, because Putin has put a man who was once a useful idiot and has now become a knowing and willing agent of the Russian Federation in the White House. I am the big fat hoax.”

It is all about Russia.

Many, including MSNBC's Rachel Maddow have noted how he tows the Russian line. From the Ukraine to Belarus to Montenegro to Syria, to NATO, to the European Union, to Russian meddling in U.S. and foreign elections, our Caesar Disgustus, when he is not carrying the Russian's bags, is fawning all over him like some panting teenage girl.Like that disgraceful exhibition in Helsinki, the spectacle that is our would be Caesar is, in a word, disgusting.

This last week  found him parroting the old KGB line that the Russian invasion of Afghanistan was to root out terrorists. No it wasn't. It was to prop up an unpopular communist regime. So here we have the nominal president of the United States gratuitously helping Putin scrub the historical record.

The editors of the The New York Times recently noted that “Mr Trump's behavior simply since he's been in office hasn't given any peace of mind even to those willing to give him the benefit of the doubt—at least, those outside the Republican leadership. In the past month, he announced that American troops would pull out of the conflict in Syria, something that the Russians have long called for. He subsequently said the Soviet Union was right to invade Afghanistan in 1979, parroting Russian revisionist history by claiming it was seeking to quell terrorism.

This month, it was revealed that federal prosecutors had accused Mr. Trump's former campaign chief Paul Manafort of sharing polling data in 2016 with an associate liked to Russian intelligence, the most direct evidence to date that the campaign may have tried to coordinate with Russia” (1)

May have? Of course The New York Times, America's newspaper of record, always understates the situation. It has to.  It cannot go too far out on the limb for fear of losing credibility. The fact that the paper is raising the issue at all is terribly significant.

Disgustus and his minions keep telling the nation that no one has been tougher on Russia; but as we speak his Treasury Secretary has lifted sanctions on Oleg Deripaska, with the blessing of Mitch McConnell and his ReSCUMlickan enablers; sanctions that were put in place due to the meddling and the lifting of which will mean many millions of dollars to a man that Paul Manafort owes millions.  Is this a way to please Putin and tamper with a possible witness in the bargain?   

How serious is it? The Times reported earlier in the month that the FBI had started a counterintelligence investigation of tRUMP after he had fired Director Comey. Let that settle in: a candidate for one of the two major parties in this country is subject to a counterintelligence probe to determine if he is an asset of a foreign nation—that subject now the sitting 'president' of the United States.

Now we discover that not only were there no high ranking American officials in his two hour meeting with Putin in Germany but that Disgustus took the notes of his translator and told him to keep his mouth shut. In fact, we have discovered, military, diplomatic and national security officials had to turn to the NSA and CIA monitoring of Russian intelligence intercepts in order to get even a rough outline of what may or may not have been discussed.

Why this secrecy? What is he hiding?

As the editors of the “Times” reminds us: “'There's two people I think Putin pays: Rohrabacher and Trump,' Kevin McCarthy, then House majority leader, told his fellow Republicans at a closed door meeting, the Washington Post first reported, shortly before Mr. Trump won his party's nomination for the White House in 2016” (2). McCarthy was referring to now former Congressman Dana Rohrabacher of California with whom his constituents have had enough.

Disgustus imagines his countenance chiseled, perhaps next to Teddy Roosevelt in the face of Mount Rushmore. Instead, he will find himself next to Benedict Arnold as the newly minted face of treason.

An Bre'er Putin, he jus' laugh and laugh”

Impeach and Imprison.
