Republicans Are Knowingly Using Putin’s Talking Points to Defend Trump (Rolling Stone).

American intelligence officials have briefed senators and their aides on this very issue in recent weeks.

But the success of the Russian smear campaign was evident in the impeachment inquiry hearings where Republicans, led by Rep. Devin Nunes, and backed up by House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, were clearly ignoring intelligence officials’ warnings and pushing the conspiracy theories.

The throughline between Russian and Republican talking points is blatantly obvious. On Wednesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin continued to push the notion of Ukrainian meddling. He even celebrated that US politicians were forwarding Russian talking points on the matter. “We see what is going on there in the US now. Thank God nobody is accusing us anymore of interfering in the US elections. Now they’re accusing Ukraine,” he said.

This is what bothers me the most about this situation. It's not that the GOP leaders (and DP posters) are "useful idiots" - the terminology of the KGB/FSB - It's that they are willing participants. They are actively promoting Russian disinformation, knowing its source.

There is a word for that.

What an extra pointless message. Yes, the Russians will say anything to try to ruin Trump. Democrats Obama and Biden were giving Russia anything they wanted, having already given Russia 20% of our uranium and huge areas of Ukraine. Trump stopped this continuing.

Of course Russia wants the Democratic Party back in the White House because they want the rest of our uranium and all of Ukraine plus all other former Soviet bloc countries that Democratic officials will sell to Russia for 1/1000th of a penny on the dollar, provided the money goes into their relatives bank accounts - and the Democrats will give them 20 times as much taxpayer money to pay for that.

Trump is Putin's little buddy, so Putin do or say whatever it takes to protect him from the evil Democrats in his own country. Meanwhile, the Republicans, ignoring the fact that Trump is ruining their party, will protect Trump by whatever means necessary, even if it means being in league with the Russians in their disinformation campaign to attack American democracy.

Its amazing how Democrats are actually serving Russia and then have the balls to try and blame it on Republicans. Democrats have been serving Russia since Trump was elected.

Democrats have done more damage to the country than Russia could have ever anticipated. Running fake news stories for political gain for 3 years, running fake investigations for 3 years that we all found out was a hoax and now running a fake impeachment with nothing but hearsay and every witness testifying that they have no knowledge of any impeachable crimes committed by Trump or any Trump associate.

Even with the knowledge that they have no one who can testify to any impeachable offense Democrats will still move for impeachment at all cost serving the Russian government by dividing this country because they simply lost an election and don't have a candidate that can beat Trump.

They have been running smear campaigns against Trump for years now calling him ever vile name in the book but God forbid if Trump has a harsh word for some ambassador. Democrats are the most hypocritical people on the planet and I am glad to finally watch the demise of the Democrat party. They sit back and wonder why the DNC is broke and why their corporate supporters have turned away while promoting free healthcare for illegals and decriminalization.

I can't wait for the FISA warrant investigation to unfold or the Senate trials. Its going to be the final nail in the Democrat party coffin.
 
As if on cue, Trump sycophants infest the thread, before it's an hour old, spinning debunked, vicious, Russian agitprop for all the world to see. Congratulations, comrades Condor,and Joko. I assume payment in Rubles is still acceptable?

So with continued failure to get the President, do I sense a shift back to Russia, Russia, Russia?

Are there more paid whores waiting in the wings to lodge accusations against the President?



The left is anything but predictable.

That wasn't your uranium. Uranium One was a Canadian company.

Uranium One - Wikipedia

"Uranium One Inc. (former names: Southern Cross Resources Inc. and sxr Uranium One Inc.) is a Canadian uranium mining company with headquarters in Toronto, Ontario. Since 2013 it is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Russian state-owned nuclear corporation Rosatom. The sale to Rosatom triggered a series of accusations; however, no evidence of wrongdoing has been found."

As for the Democratic Party selling Poland to Russia, that's quite the strange world you live in even if you're just breaking off to get a rise.

If joko read a RW post saying that Democrats had a secret plan to nuke Texas, he'd post it as truth.

More evidence that the Russians are supplying the talking points for Trumpists. Trump just gave Putin all of Venezuela's oil reserves without a peep and all of Syria too.

Obama and Democrats gave Ukraine blankets and pillows to fight Russia.


Trump gave Ukraine tank busting Javelins.


Americans can decide for themselves how full of **** your Democrat talking point is.

So Trump is Putin's little buddy because? Is it because Trump wanted a more balanced view of Russia than the
dopey imbedded bureaucrats & the majority of congress did. Or is it because Trump realized the hostility towards
Russia would force an unnatural alliance of Russia & China. Or is it the fact that Russia invaded Ukraine!

Russia invading Crimea, that's a good one. Since the Ukranian Nationalist overthrew
Yanukovich Ukraines duly elected president the entire Ukraine navy “defected”
in the Crimea region & pledged allegiance to the unrecognised
pro-Russian leader and surrendered the country's Sevastopol headquarters.

Was Russia supposed to interfere on the side of Ukraine & tell the 90% of Crimea
who wanted no part of the coup, who in the last presidential election before the
coup voted for the Russian leaning candidate overwhelmingly
(Crimea - Yanukovich 78.24% Tymoshenko 17.31%). Were they supposed to
tell the whole of Crimea 'Hey guys the world wants you to stay as a Ukraine
region, quit defecting!!!!

Actually what happened was the eternal call of Ethnonationalism after the coup that Crimea heard & answered.
Anyone except Obama's leading bureaucrat Victoria Nuland could have seen rebellion in Crimea, Luhansk &
Donetsk after the president they voted almost unanimously for had to rebel because of the Kiev Maidan coup.

But Russia seemed to have been assigned the attributes of the bogeyman.

The Democratic Party did in fact sell out Poland to the Russians. Poland was an independent country in 1939 and a Soviet Occupied one in 1945. Because they were infested with communist sympathizers.

Congress gave Ukraine Javelins, Trump illegally held them back for months and told the Ukrainian President to make a deal with Putin at the U.N.. Obama gave them more than blankets too.

The Obama administration also sent drones, armored Humvees, counter-mortar radars, night vision devices and medical supplies.

Fact check: Nunes claims Obama provided only "blankets" to Ukraine. Here'''s what we know.

Sorry, but you’re not very good at inversions.

It just comes off as stupid, and it advertises the fact that you know the OP is telling the truth, and you’re going to parrot Moscow’s line anyway.

Fiona Hill told you to knock it off.

LOL Yes a "bogeyman" that threatens to extort us with Doomsday weapons and has stolen all of Venezuela's oil reserves under Trump's watch. I'm tired of hearing this **** from so called americans who might well be living in Russia. Why don't you move there if Putin is so great? You sure don't belong here.
New conflicts in the rest of the world may be looming large, but one in the United States’ own backyard is about to get more dangerous. Despite U.S.-led sanctions on Venezuela’s state-owned oil company, Petróleos de Venezuela (PDVSA), oil from the country is still flowing onto world markets. A central facilitator of the exports is Rosneft, Russia’s state-owned oil company, which has been accepting Venezuelan crude as a form of loan repayment. In this way, Russian President Vladimir Putin is playing a leading role in keeping Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro afloat. As long as he does, current U.S. sanctions policy will do little to force a change in Venezuela, which is why Washington needs to rethink its strategy for dislodging the Venezuelan leader—and soon.

As PDVSA’s list of clients has shrunk, Rosneft has quickly surpassed all other companies to become the top trader of Venezuelan oil. Whereas the company handled 40 percent of PDVSA’s oil exports in July, by August, it was handling 66 percent. Recently, PDVSA even established an office in Moscow to facilitate payments to its Russian client, which has helped reduce its outstanding debt to Rosneft to $1.1 billion. At this pace, outstanding loans to Rosneft could be repaid in full sometime around the end of this year or in early 2020.

Devin Nunes is a particularly bad source of information.

There are Hannity/Limbaugh talking points that help ID those who don't bother to check facts for themselves. Congrats.

Russia doesn't get the uranium they mine. Rush and Sean never told you that.

So, since you had not response to my post, you decided to change the subject.

No, Trump is Putin's little buddy because Putin helped him get elected, because Trump is doing nothing whatsoever to stop Russia from meddling in the next election as well, and because Trump trusts Putin's word over that of American intelligence.

Interesting aside on Ukraine and such, but it has nothing to do with the post you quoted.
 
Congress gave Ukraine Javelins, Trump illegally held them back for months and told the Ukrainian President to make a deal with Putin at the U.N.. Obama gave them more than blankets too.

This has to be the most ingenious argument uttered by man, nay, a God. Get this...he accused "Democrats" of doing what Trump did. Can you imagine it?! I would never have thought to say "I know you are but what am?"

Give this man a Kingship!

'Member when Russia iwas our "greatest geopolitical foe" and thus you attacked Obama for being "weak on Russia"? Russia can't go from our greatest political foe that must be fought to being a lovely friend in several years.

Either you were lying then or you are lying now.





Your words are meaningless. Even you don't believe them. So sick of all this retarded knee-jerk Trump defense.

When you make fake allegations against a sitting president just because you can't get over an election and divide the country even further, yes, you are serving Russian interest.
