So essentially at it's height... the entire traffic of Parler was equal to one decent RYP snark tweet? Damn: "According to data from Sensor Tower, Parler downloads went from 517,000 in December [2020] to 11,000 in June [2021]" cnn.com/2021/10/21/pol…
I have always been skeptical of the hollow swollen fakeness of right wing outrage and the Trump bubble. The hype always says "winner" The numbers have alwayssaid..."loser" factcheck.org/2021/10/trumps… Image
Fiona Hill is an expert in Eastern European fuckery. Believe what she says. Trump has no ability to win the popular vote but he and his trolls are drilling under the foundation of democracy every day. businessinsider.com/fiona-hill-tru…
We see a similarity false fronting with TrumpCultists. Deny, Attack, Deflect. Keep the media off the actual facts but focused on ridiculous statements. Matt Gaetz would have us belief he is a martyr. Some of us believe he is a rapey frat boy.

Another rich Russian, another set of TrumpCrimers and another nab by the FBI. "There are photos of Vasilenko looking thoughtful, standing on army tanks, signing paperwork, embracing a private jet, and performatively enjoying the outdoors." motherjones.com/politics/2021/…
"the two funnelled $25,000 to the Trump campaign’s joint fundraising committee and pocketed the other $75,000." opensecrets.org/news/2021/09/g…
"Benton, a former campaign manager for Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), worked for the pro-Trump super PAC Great America PAC in 2016. In December 2020, Benton was pardoned by Trump on charges tied to hiding bribes in a 2012 scandal." Image

Our "You Smell That?" series on Foreign Fuckery. Lev Parnas was found guilty of injecting dirty money from a wealthy foreigner into the election. Lev is the guy that keeps reminding us that Trump was in on this. #NothingSmellsLikeConvictionsInTheMorning lawandcrime.com/high-profile/e…
"Straw Donor" is a polite name for political corruption in which a donor uses multiple ways to donate money to a candidate. The Trump campaign is littered with accusations of this tactic. Domestic donors seeking Quid Pro Quo are not the biggest problem. campaignlegal.org/update/clc-com…
This is not to be confused with the "Straw Man" argument. A ridiculous attack meant to divert, confuse or deflect a real argument. Trump and his cultists are the the master of straw arguments. But stupid people and trolls don't really care. inverse.com/article/25781-…

The Abraham Accords money laundering machine keeps on rolling: "receive as much as $2 billion from Saudi Arabia for Affinity, a private equity-style fund that will look for opportunities where Kushner's "geopolitical insight" can be brought to bear." project-brazen.ghost.io/jared-kushners…
Jared moved about $2B in secret funds while at the Trump administration. Two of the payees were/have been held under house arrest for financial investigation. (Erik Prince in Feb and Ludin Castillo as we speak) and the other recipients are dodgy as fuck like Khalifa Haftar.
Jared used his compromised iPhone 7 and it was repeatedly hacked with details shared with various intelligence agencies. One European spy agency replicated the hack and confirmed how it was done. MBS is a a paranoid guy. But this move appears to be the ultimate quid pro quo.

Mark Zuckerberg wants to turn Facebook into a "Metaverse" where he actually makes money living inside our heads rent free. thehill.com/changing-ameri…
I welcome this hollow volcano idea with the same enthusiasm as "Robot Dogs Now Have Sniper Rifles" announcement. What kind of offshore barely english speaking customer support network does a transnational mindfuck network need? #WhatCouldPossiblyGoWrong dronedj.com/2021/10/18/spu…
I suppose we could add the concept of mind control, robot dogs with sniper rifles and an old 1962 move called the Manchurian Candidate. A man programmed to do something evil without his knowledge. 24/7 sensory input is on its way!

Write this down and remember where you heard it. November is going to be a hell of a good month. The wheel is turning. nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
Firtash is the root of a lot of dirty cash and energized a lot of people. Those people are linked to other people. Who are then linked to other people. The FBI must have the world's largest white board. salon.com/2021/04/29/fbi…
We know that Firtash, Deripaska, Prigozshin and Kirill Dmitriev are the slippery tentacles of Putin. Why were so many Trump people meeting with them? Well I guess that is what we will find out. But wait...there's more. What about the Gulfies and their middlemen?
