I hate to say I told you so… okay I’m lying, it’s like crack to me. I’ll never get tired of reminding establishment Democrats what absolute maniacal freaks they’ve been for the last few months, and how spectacularly wrong they were.
I daresay I’ll be reminding them of this for however many months or years it takes to get these McResistance oligarchic sycophants to quit swerving into parked cars.
There are now more indications than ever that your hysterical #TrumpRussia nonsense is gasping its last breaths, Democrats, and I promise you that those of us who kept our heads will never, ever stop making fun of you for the crazy nonsense we’ve had to put up with from you nutbags since the election.
We can’t ever stop. If we do you won’t learn anything.
I’ve been saying it for months and I’ll say it yet again: Stop trying to make Russiagate happen. It’s not going to happen. I promise right here and now that if hard proof ever emerges of Trump colluding with Russia to win the 2016 election, I will change my Twitter handle to PeterDaou’sSexKitten. If he’s impeached or arrested for it I’ll delete my Medium account and personally crawl on my knees to David Brock to apply for a job at ShareBlue. It will not happen.
If there was any proof that Trump and Russia colluded to win the 2016 election, the intelligence community would have leaked it to the Washington Post in December.
It is looking increasingly unlikely that there will ever even be an independent investigation into the Russia nonsense, and even if there is it won’t have anywhere near the capability that the intelligence community’s sprawling surveillance networks have had for years.
If there was anything to find they would have found it, and there’s no rational reason that the Trump campaign would even need to collaborate with Russia in order for Russia to hack the Democratic party’s emails and pass them to WikiLeaks in the first place; they wouldn’t need an American political candidate’s cooperation to do it, they’d just do it.
Putin did not have some crystal ball that could accurately predict years in advance that Trump would become president but failed to predict the fact that Russiagate would be used to escalate tensions between the two nations to their most dangerous point in decades
Russiagate is on its way out the door. Savor its smell my corporate liberal brothers and sisters, because these are the last whiffs you’ll ever get of its powerfully addictive musk.
His neoconservative policy switcheroos on Syria, Russia, China, NATO and WikiLeaks prove that Trump has fully bent the knee to America’s unelected power establishment, so there’s no need for the #TrumpRussia psy-op anymore. It was only ever there to leverage Trump into capitulating to the oligarchs and their neocon butt puppets.
The American public will be paced out of the Russiagate hysteria by the corporate media as gradually and manipulatively as they were paced into it, and before long they’ll be barking at whatever new hallucinations Chris Cuomo and Rachel Maddow concoct for them to focus on.
Hence my promise to make sure that everyone remembers this one
Democratic Congresswoman Maxine Waters, who in addition to leading the Russiagate charge has also used her position to spread the brazen lie that it was known to be “absolutely true” that Trump had a kinky encounter with some well-hydrated Russian prostitutes as alleged in the error-riddled and unverified Christopher Steele dossier. Apparently frustrated at the news that the only thing giving her significance in American politics is about to be taken away whose sources tell him that the
Senate Intelligence Committee’s Russia probe has been completely stalled out by partisan bickering.
You can just feel the way the energy has been completely sucked out of the investigation with the mass media bellows fanning the Russiagate flames less and less.
The whole thing is crumbling and it will soon be forgotten.
And, perhaps most significantly, the establishment media is showing indications of a shifting narrative. Bloomberg just published an article by Eli Lake titled “At 100 Days, Trump’s No Russian Stooge or Fascist”, and while Lake is not the most virulently pro-establishment journalist out there, he is no Glenn Greenwald.
He works for Bloomberg, he has directly participated in the despicable “Russia hacked the election” media psy-op which deceived half of all Clinton voters into believe that Russia tampered with voting machines during the 2016 election, he has directly participated in pushing the completely unproven establishment narrative of the Idlib gas attack while ignoring the mountains of evidence contradicting it, he has called Russia “international poison” and criticized Trump for lacking sufficient hostility toward Putin, and he has run multiple smear pieces on Julian Assange and WikiLeaks. And yet here he is, pointing out the extremely obvious fact that Trump’s behavior is the exact opposite of what one would expect from a pawn of Vladimir Putin.
This would have been unthinkable one month ago. One month ago this sort of story could not have been tolerated in the mainstream liberal press.
So it’s already begun. Democrats are being paced and manipulated out of the xenophobic McCarthyist haze they were paced and manipulated into, and step by step the fog will lift, and they’ll be paced and manipulated into consenting to some other dangerous neocon agenda.
Don’t worry though, Democrats. We’ll remember it for you. And we’ll remind you. We’ll remind you that you were wrong.
