Steaming pile of CYA BS even by DC standards. Author was complicit in SHUTDOWN of DoS effort to fight Kremlin lies.

2/ Stengel's piece is incredibly dishonest. He was complicit in what I told you about in NOV 2015, right here:

observer.com/2015/11/obama-…
3/ That piece had a list of questions that needed to be answered -- a YEAR b4 the election -- on why DoS/USG refused to fight Kremlin lies.
4/ Stengel and the Obama WH NEVER answered ANY of them. They gave Putin a pass -- and we know all too well what that led to in NOV 2016.
5/ Stengel & the Obama WH played dumb at the time; don't let them lie now about what they did -- rather, failed utterly to do to protect us.
6/ Hillary WAS jumping up'n'down in 2015-16 about Kremlin lies -- and she was totally screwed by the Obama admin. A sad, avoidable tragedy.
7/ I feel badly for Hillary on that account. She's right to be pissed. Don't let the people who screwed her & USA over get away with lies.
Stengel and all those who were complicit in letting Putin run amok with lies in 2016 do NOT get to write lying revisionist history now. /End

OH LOOK ===> That Kilimnik guy again!

Sharing polling data with a known Russian spy sounds pretty...espionage-y, even for Paulie Walnuts.

theguardian.com/us-news/2019/j…
Moreover, we can drop "alleged" -- Kilimnik boasted for years to everybody about his GRU connections; and Putin himself has been admirably clear about the non-existence of "former Chekists."

Odd, no?

"The contacts, private chats and financial details of figures from every political party - except the far-right AfD - were posted on Twitter."

I would be too.

"I am outraged that I am learning about the data leak from the media, even though I am a member of the parliament's Intelligence Oversight Committee and Home Affairs Committee"

This is a very important cyberattack. So...Whodunit? As usual, @TomRtweets has a solid explainer, recommended:

Trump’s problem is that instead of writing Art of the Deal he should have read Art of War in which Sun Tzu advises that in battle, always leave your enemy a way out. For 2 years, he and the GOP refused compromise to give Dems an out. The only thing they can expect now is a fight.
IF Trump or the GOP had compromised, they could demand it back. They could at least portray themselves as people willing and capable if it. Instead, at every turn, they went for maximum gain without consideration for tomorrow. Two years of unfettered and uncompromising power.
It’s as if you have an enemy surrounded, but the enemy is still formidable... it wants to escape, but it is capable of fighting. The best idea per Art of War is to leave an escape route. Break the encirclement at some point. Make retreat more attractive than continued hostility.

💣Complicit💣

Let this sink in...

Kush urged Trump to stand by MBS, & argued that outrage over Khashoggi’s brutal murder “will pass, like the kidnapping of Lebanon’s PM & the killing of a busload of children by a Saudi airstrike.

📌WH had TS SIGINT in advance of killing.

Saudi Arabia is putting money in Trump’s pocket. Is that shaping U.S. policy?

"It certainly looks that way to me," Trump said as he departed from Joint Base Andrews. "It's very sad. Certainly looks that way."

📌Rumor has it MBS & Kush chat via WhatsApp! #SIGINT

📌CT:”Trump (& some adult family) negotiated a deal w/ the Saudis and the Emiratis for 3.6 billion to get rid of Iran nuclear deal & reimpose sanctions.

The payment was made in two installments.

THE NEXUS BETWEEN TRUTH AND LIES (A Case Study of Nigeria)

According to a 19th century legend, the Truth and the Lie meet one day.
The Lie says to the Truth: "It's a marvellous day today"!
The Truth looks up to the skies and sighs, for the day was really beautiful.
They spend a lot of time together, ultimately arriving beside a well.

Again, The Lie tells the Truth: "The water is very nice, let's take a bath together!"!
The Truth, once again suspicious, tests the water and discovers that it indeed is very nice.
They undress and start bathing.
Suddenly, the Lie comes out of the water, puts on the clothes of the Truth and runs away.

The furious Truth comes out of the well and runs everywhere to find the Lie and to get her clothes back.

Washington DC is the Septic Drain Field of America, a giant sewage system housing every power hungry, money hungry, blood sucking politician. They will do mostly anything to be apart of the “club” they swear to uphold the constitution, however swear at it. #DC #Swamp
People go there to bring change and in a matter of months are changed! #DC #Swamp
Not just the politicians, the organizations, all hell bent of controlling the system, from think tanks to government agencies, operating outside of the constitution. DC is filled with alphabet agencies, including alphabet news agencies, all under control of the cabal!

Dear MSM,

Here's how Trump wants this to go:

Trump blames Hope Hicks. You feel sorry for HH. You call Trump sexist. Fox/Breitbart call you fake news.

Everyone forgets about this scandal after Trump creates a new one a day later.

Don't take the bait.
cnn.com/2018/02/09/pol…
The real story here is Rob Porter beat his ex-wives. He couldn't get a security clearance but still got this job. He frequently came into contact with classified material he wasn't cleared to see.

The White House knew. They tried to cover it up. Hope Hicks isn't a victim here.
This is not the first time Hicks has carried water for a man accused of hurting women."

Great piece to start with here. She's just as #Complicit as Ivanka. Pretty ≠ good.
