Donald Trump’s Russia ties remain a
national security risk

Original Article

Posted By: Rama41, 2/19/2024 10:20:45 AM

Many gasped recently when Donald Trump said he’d encourage Russia “to do whatever the hell they want” with NATO allies who don’t pay their share of the transatlantic alliance’s defense spending. It was a brazen but hardly surprising turn from someone who has shown a long and loyal affection for Russian President Vladimir Putin, a wanted war criminal. Trump has called Putin — a former KGB agent who jails and murders critics — smart, savvy, and his friend. Trump sided with Putin after a U.S. intelligence community assessment found Russia meddled in the 2016 election. More troubling, in 2017 Trump shared highly classified intelligence with the Russian ambassador.

This screed, reading like it's still 2018, is one of a series the Inky is running to undermine our candidate. Focusing on Biden and the issues can't come too soon.

You might be a Dim if you can spin any sarcastic line into a hate-filled screed to "Get The Other." By the way, a "born in and raised in and living in Italy" friend of mine who hates Putin more than Poopey Goldbricker hates Trump totally agrees with the sentiment expressed in Trump's statement.

President Trump's statement was just as outrageous as Henny Youngman asking everyone to take his wife - - and then saying "Please!" Youngman was the worst kind of male chauvinist pig - - throwing his wife out in public - - and begging anyone to come along and take her away. Trump and Youngman - - two peas in a pod-duh.

Get ready for more of these lies on a daily basis by the leftist perverts and criminals in the media. This is how they win elections (along with cheating). They tell lies about their opponents to the stupid and illogical over and over again and the stupid and illogical repeat them to other stupid and illogical people. We can only pray that some of the normal populace have begun to see their methods.

Hillary went there with an apology tour Reset button. Lot's of money from Russia went into the Clinton Foundation and it is for sure that much of it did not go to legitimate charities but the FBI and the DOJ seem disinterested in pursuing an investigation. Hillary was totally Russian bought and paid for by the time she ran for President. Trump doesn't want to get the US into more wars. He is the most antiwar president we have ever had. And the big leaders in DC all have ties to arms dealers. Plus they have underhanded deals with Ukraine, Russia(in the past now), China, etc. And it profits them if they keep a war going. They still have big money and deals with the Ukraine and so they don't want Russia to come in and clean house.

The zombie heart of the KKK motivation is beating in new Philadelphia. Democrats are angling for a modern incarnation of slavery. City of Brotherly love killed the Boy Scouts, helped steal the 2020 election to keep it up. What was that Sonny & Cher song....The Beat Does On....whole lotta hate & lying going on.....'Editorial Board' for a city that is on track to 3rd World, where economic slavery and murder is an everyday thing....Glad the Philly INquirer is focused on the important things for their citizens/serfs.... Haven't hear that Gov Abbott has been sending any busses to Philly, if not, move them up the list....

Not sure they could write something like this in the regular section of the newspaper so they used the editorial page to dump every possible comment they were told to write from the DNC, I presume. Or, maybe The Democracy Integrity Project is still operating their daily "research" which had major funding from George Soros and Rob Reiner as per TheRealClearInvestigation article from Paul Sperry.

What Ties? The longest running, most expensive, most intrusive investigation in American History determined that there were ZERO ties between any Trump people and ANY Russians, in fact, no ties to ANY foreigners of any kind. ALL of the "Russians" involved were under the employ of the DNC, Hillary, and/or the FBI/CIA...including CIA agents with made up fake identities pretending to be russians in efforts to entrap Trump folks...who did NOT take the bait. Even the "Russian Lady Lawyer" that fraudulently set up a 10 minute meeting with DJ jr at Trump tower was in the temporary employ of Hillary, was actually Ukrainian, and had worked for the US Govt, The State Dept, and even the Defense Dept under contracts in the past.

Taking the "let Russia do whatever" comment in hand, it's clear that we can't want Europe's security more than they do....and if they want to skimp on that, why should we make up the difference? That's how I interpret the comment and I'm surprised that those Main Line editorial writers can't see it.

The Philadelphia Inquirer, like 98% of the Legacy (corporate) Media, richly deserves to go to the place called "Out of Business," with resultant unemployment rates of 100%. These poor citizens and Democrat whores, who can't distinguish good from evil, are so far off base, they should be in compulsory night school, learning (as 0bama told coal miners fifteen years ago) "how to code." Or else pick up a shovel and dig some ditches or some graves at the local cemetery. People who think like this are useless to humanity. They need new skills and muscles.

Former President Donald Trump is urging supporters to “guard the vote” during next year’s election, a phrase that has set off alarm bells among pro-democracy advocates who say it signals permission to take extreme measures that could intimidate voters and threaten election workers. The phrase is a relatively novel one for Trump, though activists in the far-right movement have been setting the groundwork for it to be deployed more widely. Former national security adviser Michael Flynn has spent months repeating the phrase in posts, speeches and interviews.

Former President Trump told his supporters earlier this year he would be their “retribution” if reelected. He told supporters last week he would direct the Justice Department (DOJ) to investigate “every Marxist prosecutor in America.” And Trump over the weekend vowed to “root out … the radical-left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country.” Trump’s own words have made increasingly clear how fixated he is on revenge and targeting his perceived enemies if he wins a second term in the White House next November.

He fights. And unlike some others who fight, he wins. His fights aren’t carried out through rhetoric: he strikes the Left where it hurts them most. The Left has been winning battles based upon a brilliant strategy they adopted in the 60s and 70s. Once it became clear that the strategy of protest was doomed to fail, Leftists adopted what German socialist Rudi Dutschke called “the long march through the institutions,” explicitly referring to Mao’s famous Long March that ended with the victory of the communists in China.

Local families in the predominantly black Roxbury neighborhood of Boston are furious after the city shut down the local community center to instead use it to house more of President Joe Biden’s illegal border crossers. Roxbury’s Melnea A. Cass Recreational Community Center, which was once a meeting place for Little League ball players, volleyball games, and other sports and community events, has now been dedicated to rows of cots for illegal border crossers, CBS, WBZ-TV Boston reported. WBZ interviewed pre-teen Jeremiah Rodriguez who showed up at the community center on Feb. 17 under the mistaken impression that his community baseball team was using the facility for batting practice.

Ever since transgender individuals have been allowed to participate in sporting events of the gender with which they identify, people with more than two fully functioning brain cells have been issuing warning after warning about the physical dangers posed to biological females by competition against biological males. Such warnings were met with cries of "bigot" and other such name-calling. However, case after case has emerged proving the concerns are completely valid. A good case in point comes from a high school girls' basketball game that ultimately ended in a forfeit at halftime due to three girls suffering injuries

On Friday, far left Judge Arthur Engoron fleeced $355 million from President Trump for taking out loans in New York State and paying them back on time and with interest. The charges were brought against Trump by crazed New York State Attorney General Letitia James. There were no victims in the so-called crime. The banks did their due diligence before they loaned Donald Trump the money and testified they would gladly do it again. Judge Engoron called this a crime and ruled that President Donald Trump owed the state $355 million. But that’s not all. As Volokh Conspiracy reported Engoron also put a Clinton-appointed judge in control

Newly uncovered documents reveal Joe Biden has an interesting connection to Abraham Lincoln and a personal reason to be thankful for his Presidency. Historian David J. Gerleman wrote in theWashington Post Monday that Biden’s great-great-grandfather, Moses J. Robinette, was pardoned by President Lincoln after being charged with murder following a particularly violent incident. He discovered this shocking detail after reviewing 22 pages of a court martial transcript. The charge came after a Robinette got into a brawl with fellow Union Army civilian employee John J. Alexander on March 21, 1864, in the Army of the Potomac’s winter camp in Virginia.

In case you aren't familiar with John Oliver, he's a hardcore leftist. So you know what his motivation is for wanting to get rid of Thomas. Liberals really, really hate conservatives. They also despise black conservatives. What really brings out their inherent racism is a black conservative who serves on the bench of the highest court in the country.

Oscar Wilde wrote that “moderation is a fatal thing. Nothing succeeds like excess.” Justice Arthur Engoron took that line to heart with his absurd imposition of $455 million in fines and interest against Donald Trump and his corporation. It succeeded wonderfully with New Yorkers, who celebrated the verdict like a popular public execution. It also worked wonderfully to make it difficult to appeal. Much of the criticism of the decision focused on the unprecedented use of the law and the excessive size of the fine. The New York statute has been on the books for decades and has always been something of an anomaly

President Trump published a timely post on Truth Social earlier today on Presidents’ Day. President Trump has a keen awareness of the mood of the country. And, on this Presidents’ Day it’s hard to recognize America. The deliberate actions by the American left, the DC elites, the legacy media, and the tech conglomerates, are changing the US into a country our Founding Fathers would not recognize. Today, Joe Biden and his Obama handlers have transitioned America into a state that more closely resembles Chavez’s Venezuela than Reagan’s shining city on a hill. Democrats today have over 91 charges of lawfare leveled against him by the radical left.
