Donald Trump is attempting to provide aid and comfort to a
mortal enemy of the United States in defiance of the law as passed by Congress
expressing the will of the American people. The Congress damn well better make
him stop and do what they have directed him to do by law. If he refuses, they
need to remove him from office.- WaPo comment
I don't know what dirt Valdimir Putin has on President
Donald J Corruption but it must be horrible!!! Makes me grin ear to ear! 😁
And I like seeing Donald Trump upset while bowing down on his knees to Vladimir
Putin! He is the worst President in my lifetime and I am 72 years old!
Leave it to DJT to try and put his “little fingers” on the
scale to try and benefit Putin; The Only question is ? What does Putin have
over D J T I Stand with Ukraine -
Ukraine needs to knock out ALL of Russia's oil refining
capacity. When the Russian economy goes down, the Russian military will
collapse, then Putin will end up in a spider hole like Saddam and the vengeful
Russian people will hunt him down. FSB archives will be opened up and Trump's
treason will have nowhere to hide.-
“The faster all the Russian refineries and ability to sell
energy will be blown to smithereens the better, because Russia is funding the
war with that,”
-
Prime Minister Kristen Michal of Estonia, The
Financial Times
Yesterday we learned, e.g.
Ukraine has been targeting critical components of Russia’s oil
industry that are hard to repair. The strikes have crippled Russia’s diesel
production and aroused the ire of the American Traitor leader eager to make
nice with Putin to buy his diesel to help stave off Americans hit in their
pocketbooks. But making deals with Ukraine’s enemy (as well as Europe’s) is
what a traitor does.
This was after the orange traitor stunned the world Friday announcing that the U.S. would immediately lift sanctions on Moscow and start buying Russian diesel. (All this after railing against American "communists".) Trump claimed Russia will immediately supply more than 300,000 tons of diesel to the American and global market, followed by an additional 500,000 tons in November and 1 million tons “immediately thereafter.” And: "Russia will deliver an additional 3 million tons within a short period of time”.
But most energy experts believe this cynical, self -serving move won't make a dime's worth of difference in the short term - meaning to the end of the year. Apart from which we damned well know this move merely rewards Putin and funds his war. Yet the reactionary media (like the WSJ and FOX) still doesn't believe we have a Russian Asset occupying the Oval Office.
Besides, only a goddamned traitor would spout that Ukraine is responsible for driving up diesel and oil prices when the traitor himself launched the war against Iran that incited Iranians to shut down the Strait of Hormuz. Directly leading to the spike in oil, diesel as well as fertilizer prices not to mention the cost in lives.
Thus, American allies abroad underscored their support
for Zelensky to go ahead and keep bombing the Russkie diesel supplies – and ‘devil
take the devils. (The U.S traitor and his bosom buddy Putin). The leaders of
the European Union, France, Britain, Poland, Finland and Norway spoke by
telephone with Zelensky over the weekend to emphasize their backing for him and
for Ukraine in continuing its fight against Russia. Let Trump scream and
threaten all he wants.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk wrote in a post
on X following a call with Zelensky on Sunday.
“I am absolutely certain that nothing and no one will break
Ukraine and its President in their fight against Russian aggression,”
You’ve got it because Zelensky and Ukraine are on the right
side of this conflict, Trump and Putin in the wrong. So we need Ukraine to keep
on bombing the Russian diesel distillation plants, preferably crippling any U.S.
chance of making much use of them. Most of us don’t want momentary and minuscule benefits wrought at the
hands of American traitors- presidents or not.
Responding to Trump’s call for his ouster, Zelensky said in an
interview with ABC News on Sunday that it was up to the Ukrainian people to
choose a leader. But he ought to have added that the U.S. Congress should
conduct a lawful ouster of Trump via the 25th amendment – or impeachment
for his lawlessness and violations of the Constitution.
Thom Tillis (R, NC), meanwhile, said on the NBC’s Meet the Press:
“I get it that he may be frustrated, but he needs to
understand who the good guys are in this disagreement and who the bad guys are,
and it’s not even close.”
Noting “that tens of thousands of people have died over this
[Russia’s] illegal invasion.”
Let’s be clear here that Trump’s waiver of Russian sanctions
effectively aligns Washington with Moscow and against the bombing Kyiv has
carried out against Russian energy infrastructure. Those targeted strikes have
damaged Russia’s energy industry, wiping out one percent of the country’s gross
domestic product.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer correctly accused Trump
of “doing a deal with the devil” to “help his flailing political fortunes.”
The European Union’s foreign policy chief, Kaja Kallas,
slammed the deal as providing Moscow with “more revenues to wage war.”
Of course, Trump’s attacks on Zelensky were welcomed in
Moscow, with Russian special envoy Kirill Dmitriev calling it “iconic and
historic.”
Yeah, “iconic and historic” that an American President could surrender to a Russian dictator’s will- but of course that same dictator helped Trump get into office in 2016. As former MI6 spy Christopher Steele wrote in his recent book, Unredacted' :
"It is sometimes easy to forget that Putin helped Trump to become President before, in 2016, as the report by special counsel Robert Mueller made clear."
Adding (p. 125):
"Fusion GPS had unearthed numerous connections between Trump and Russia, including his links with alleged Russian organized crime figures - also that Trump had made many trips to Russia starting in the Soviet era."
Supporting this were literally troves of substantiated material which the Right typically has ignored in Mueller's (2019) Report:.
www.justice.gov/storage/report.pdf
Including the indictments of 12 Russian (GRU) agents.
[Read the indictment here.]
Steele Dossier a fake? Think again! As shown in the comprehensive Dossier - The Moscow Project it is as real as a heart attack. We know Trump stayed overnight at the Moscow Ritz Carlton in 2013 – where the Kompromat pee tape was made, e.g.
James Carville: There Is A Pee Tape
Further, three experienced Guardian UK journalists (Luke Harding, Julian Borger, Dan Sabbah) reported:
“The existence of a leaked Kremlin document describing the meeting of the Russian National Security Council in January, 2016 at which Vladimir Putin ‘authorizes a secret spy operation to support a ‘mentally unstable Donald Trump’ in the 2016 presidential election.”
Thankfully, four Republican senators and two Democratic senators have signed onto the statement released yesterday in protesting this abhorrent deal. They said the administration failed to consult with Congress or submit any explanation to justify its decision as required by statute.
The Republican senators who signed onto the statement included Sens. Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Thom Tillis of North
Carolina and John Curtis of Utah. The Democratic senators were Sens. Jeanne
Shaheen of New Hampshire and Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut.
“The United States should not provide Putin with a financial
lifeline while Russia continues to kill Ukrainian civilians. The Administration
must immediately reverse course,”

Opinion | Trump’s Democracy-for-Diesel Deal Shames Us All - The New York Times
Excerpt:
If President Trump does not understand what will happen to
him if he proceeds with his plan to trade away support for Ukraine’s democracy
for Russian diesel, let me spell it out: He will enter the history books in the
chapter on leaders who sold out their country’s democratic values to appease a
dictator.
Donald Trump, meet Neville Chamberlain. When future students
search online for “sellout,” “appeaser” or “traitor to his country’s core
values,” their two pictures will come up first, side by side. And deservedly
so.
I have never believed that Trump was somehow an agent of
Russia’s leader, Vladimir Putin, or in his pay. It is much worse. He simply
does not cherish democracy. He cherishes money. And he has no problem selling
out the first for the second.

Is Putin running America through Trump, is Trump just a “useful idiot” for the Russians, or is he the worst traitor America’s seen since the days of Benedict Arnold?
Yesterday morning, Trump took to his Nazi-infested social media site to announce to the world (and a bit earlier to people who give him $100,000 a month for market-moving information) that Russia and Ukraine had agreed to an “energy ceasefire,” telling the world “Both parties have agreed. Do not break it!”
Ukrainian President Zelenskyy responded that the deal was “news for me,” and the Kremlin spokesman said three days earlier that Russia wasn’t interested in any sort of a limited truce like Trump announced. But Trump made an identical announcement back in September, which was also a lie, and the night of his announcement both countries continued to bomb each other’s refineries and power plants.

After Russian Diesel Deal, Trump Faces New Crisis Over Ukraine - The New York Times
Excerpt:
To the Ukrainians and their European supporters, the attacks
on Russia’s fuel refineries are Kyiv’s most effective way to respond to
Russia’s bombardment of Ukraine’s energy grid. Ukraine is prepared to stop
attacking energy infrastructure, Mr. Zelensky has said, if Russia does the
same.
Russia has refused such a deal. Nevertheless, to Mr. Trump,
Ukraine’s attacks are an affront to a U.S. administration that has continued to
provide intelligence and some military support to Ukraine despite the American
president’s harsh words about Mr. Zelensky. Diesel prices in particular have
become a sore spot for Mr. Trump, causing
farmers’ costs to spike just as harvest season arrives and the midterms are
weeks away.
“He better damn well stop,” Mr. Trump told reporters on
Saturday, referring to Mr. Zelensky and Ukraine’s attacks on Russian
refineries, and ignoring Russia’s strikes on the Ukrainian energy grid. “He
wants to make problems for the world. He wants to make problems for our
farmers, our ranchers.”
Export statistics indicate that the increase in diesel and
energy prices stems largely from Mr. Trump’s war with Iran, though Ukraine’s
attacks on Russia have also played a role.

Zelensky Says Ukraine Will Resume Russian Refinery Strikes, Defying Trump - The New York Times
Excerpt:
President Zelensky’s anger with the Trump administration
burst into view on Thursday when he said he would no longer abide by President
Trump’s demand to stop striking Russian oil refineries. It was a remarkably
vocal expression by the Ukrainian leader of frustration with the United States,
as Kyiv grapples with what it sees as a betrayal by Washington.
Mr. Zelensky’s remarks, in an interview with The Financial Times published on
Thursday, brought to a head days of mounting tensions with the Trump
administration. It drew expressions of support from European allies in
Brussels, but could be a risky move for a country that has depended heavily on
U.S. support.
In the interview, Mr. Zelensky appeared baffled by Mr.
Trump’s decisions, criticizing him for making deals with President Vladimir V.
Putin of Russia, and for openly admiring dictators who have clung to power. Mr.
Putin, the Ukrainian leader said, is “real evil.”
“How can Trump be friends with him?” Mr. Zelensky added.
Mr. Zelensky now appears to have had enough.
“That’s it. The block is out,” Mr. Zelensky said when asked by The Financial Times how much longer Ukraine would maintain the pause on targeting refineries. He did not say what had tipped his decision or when the strikes would resume.

Eight of our American service members are dead and over 140 wounded because Iran’s military has suddenly gotten really good at targeting our soldiers, Airmen, and Marines. News reports say they’ve been able to hit us with such precision because Russia is using their extraordinary spy satellite, spy plane, and advanced radar capabilities to help Iran’s military.
The Washington Post, which first reported on this, quoted a Russian military expert as saying that Iran is now “making very precise hits on early-warning radars or over-the-horizon radars,” seeming to validate the concern. The article added:
“Iran possesses only a handful of military-grade satellites, and no satellite constellation of its own, which would make imagery provided by Russia’s much more advanced space capabilities highly valuable — particularly as the Kremlin has honed its own targeting after years of war in Ukraine…”

The British newspaper Daily Mail is out with a deeply researched investigative report, the result of a long collaboration between columnists Glen Owen and Dan Hodges, along with Mark Hookham (Assistant Editor Investigations), and Daisy Graham-Brown (Investigative Reporter).
It’s shocking in its detail and its implication that Putin has basically owned Trump for years, even before he ran for president in 2016.
They note of last week’s partial (about 50%) Epstein document release:
“The files include 1,056 documents naming Russian President Vladimir Putin and 9,629 referring to Moscow. Epstein even seems to have secured audiences with Putin after his 2008 conviction for procuring a child for prostitution.”
