Kushner $2B. Mnuchkin #2.5B and don't forget Barrack "In June 2018, The Times reported that Barrack’s company “has raised more than $7 billion in investments since Mr. Trump won the nomination,” about a quarter from either the Emirates or Saudi Arabia." nytimes.com/2021/07/23/opi…
The link between the UAE's man Barrack and Putin's man Manafort is impressive "In the heat of Trump’s 2016 election, Trump’s one-time campaign chair Paul Manafort and Barrack set up now-defunct pro-Trump super PAC called Rebuilding America Now"opensecrets.org/news/2021/07/t…
"Among other issues, (Mueller) asked about a Mediterranean cruise that Mr. Barrack and Mr. Manafort took after Mr. Manafort was fired in August 2016 from the Trump campaign because of a scandal over his previous work for pro-Russian politicians in Ukraine."campaignlegal.org/update/mueller…
Barrack kept pushing for Manafort. Trump liked "free"/ On the day of his official hire Manafort told Russian agent Kilimnik and oligarchs: Akhmetov, Kolesnikov, Lyovochkin, Deripaska. Manafort was ready to sell out America. Page 57: intelligence.senate.gov/sites/default/…
"Mr. Manafort was also indicted on charges of money laundering and failing to disclose his lobbying work for foreign interests" We would never the links between the Gulf nations, Russia and Trump. We and others would only suffer from the results. nytimes.com/2018/07/30/us/…
March 21, 2022: "Superseding Indictment: "(Barrack's) Defense counsel respectfully request that the Court inquire of the government whether it presently intends to present a superseding indictment to the grand jury before trial" #TikTokdocumentcloud.org/documents/2145…
Again the linkage between UAE/KSA money and the Russian export of violence to move their anti democracy agenda forward and protect their "precious" aka petro. Is the big picture to watch. theintercept.com/2022/03/09/rus…

The topic of "volunteers" vs "mercenaries" vs "foreign trainers" vs "foreign assistance" or outside whatever in Ukraine is a defining moment in history. Defending liberty against fascists must be a global responsibility. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
Hybrid warfare by petro-fascists or the current #1922Plan in effect relies on trojan horsing, bullying, tricking, undermining and eventually toppling democratic nations. Even we are under attack as are many small nations and even territories are stolen. From Socotra to Donbass.
Foreign assistance ranging from intel to volunteers focuses on a conflict, allowing more in depth understanding of strategy. Also revealing many tactics used eventually against America. Ukraine is the canary in the coal mine. Ignore at our peril. 2000:tampabay.com/archive/2000/0…
It is rumored he bought a VCR just so he can watch Steven's latest movies.
Putin is Steven Seagal. At least in his mind. There is an argument to be made that Putin's lack of any real military victory, love of threat projection and macho imagery seems to make him more understandable. theguardian.com/world/2016/nov…
It's not about "free speech". We already have that . Twitter is an advertising and data business that pretend's its not responsible for the comments of real and fictional customers. It is about the manipulation of social media. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…
Once Elon accepts and aggressively addresses algorithms and paid influence campaigns based on deceit, public inflammation, special interest and general fuckery... not free speech. Then we can relax. investopedia.com/ask/answers/12…
It's not new and it is not unique to Twitter, but it is an easy fix. Kill the professional propaganda trolls, use real names, hold people accountable..like that Trump guy who was kicked off for lying and inciting violence.#LitmusTestcnbc.com/2017/03/10/nea…
Since our government is now taking the threat in Ukraine seriously. It’s important that everyone do their homework to know why. Please watch this. And then watch the CNN doc.
That doc skips over the deal Putin made with Yeltsin to no prosecute Yeltsin or his family Second item is to understand exactly how Putin solidified his power by terrifying Russians. 1999:
A good doc on the subtle approach to aggression against America via political fuckery. Made more watchable with the dulcet tones of Will Lyman.
