"If things go the way Trump plans...he will be the first big-time developer since Stalin to attach his name to high-rise towers in Moscow." -@MoscowTimes, 1996

Amazing how each of Trump's presidential runs [1988, 2000, 2016] coincided with a proposed Trump Tower Moscow project.
"The idea of building in Moscow came to Trump after he saw the rising number of wealthy Russians buying apartments in his high-priced New York developments, which include Trump Palace, Trump Parc and Trump Plaza." -@MoscowTimes, NOV 1996

CORRECTION: Manafort told Kilimnik to pass TRUMP polling data not to Deripaska but to Ukrainian oligarchs Rinat Akhmetov & Serhiy Lyovochkin, who funneled $50K to Trump's inaugural & is business partner to Dmytro Firtash [top-tier comrade of Russian mob boss Mogilevich].

FYI: Rick Gates testified that between 2010-2013, former Yanukovych CoS Serhiy Lyovochkin funneled $42M to Paul Manafort. At the time, Lyovochkin was business partner to Dmytro Firtash [top-tier comrade of Russian mob boss, Semion Mogilevich].

In his plea deal, Sam Patten, US business partner of Konstantin Kilimnik [Russian GRU associate of Manafort & Gates] who worked for Cambridge Analytica in 2014, said a Ukranian oligarch [Serhiy Lyovochkin] funneled $50K into Trump's inaugural fund.

Trump campaign chair & deputy chair Paul Manafort & Rick Gates conspired with Russian GRU-linked Konstantin Kilimnik to pass internal polling data to Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska, whose private jet Kilimnik flew on to meet Manafort in AUG 2016.

In AUG 2016, after Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort's told him to share internal polling data with Putin ally Oleg Deripaska, Russian GRU-linked Kilimnik used Deripaska's jet to meet Manafort in NY – soon after he met with Deripaska in Moscow .
#Maddow
In SEP 2016, weeks after Kilimnik flew to NY on Oleg Deripaska's private jet to meet Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort, Deripaska secretly met with Russia's deputy prime minister Prikhodko & briefed him on how to "solve the issue with America."

Against Normalization: The Lesson of the “Munich Post”

1/
THE TRUMP-HITLER COMPARISON.
Is there any comparison? Between the way the campaigns of Donald #Trump and Adolf #Hitler should have been treated by the #media and the culture? The way the media should act now? The problem of #normalization?
2/
Because I’d written a book called Explaining Hitler several editors had asked me, during the #campaign, to see what could be said on the subject.

Until the morning after the election I had declined them.

1. In 1987 it is believed that #Trump was recruited by #SovietUnion, specifically recruited by Kryuchkov head of First Chief Directorate, a division within the #KGB who's primary responsibility was to gather foreign intelligence

#Trump #Russia #SovietUnion #Treason
2.Both Kryuchkov and #Gorbachev faced #Reagan as #President, and he was in the #SovietUnion´s eyes regarded as a very strong leader, the opposite of #Carter of #Ford, when dealing with them.

My theme for this series: Sparrow Red - Missiles Only
2) #Qanon posted a Tweet by the President and asked why the misspelling wasn't corrected.
3) #Qanon said: Misspellings matter.
So do memes.
Why?
Jack & Zuck use AI to detect ideologies that need to be censored
Memes convey ideologies in a way that can't be detected by artificial intelligence.
Memes confound censors.

How #Trump became a #Soviet/#Russian Agent
1. #Trump's first known visit to #Soviet and #Moscow in 1987 looks to be part of a pattern. The #SteeleDossier says that the #Kremlin had been cultivating# Trump for “at least five years” before 2016 elections, meaning it asserts a beginning in 2011 or 2012.
2.The #SovietUnion was interested in #Trump three decades earlier. The top level of the #Soviet diplomatic service arranged his 1987 #Moscow visit.
