This was obvious eight years ago. Notable that all three are products of nepotism in journalism and politics — just like Trump, Kushner, and the others for whom they covered. Mafia state operatives prefer nepo babies to be their stenographers because they’ll keep secrets. On Haberman, from 2022:

Blinken was always a terrible pick for Sec of State due to his family ties to Israeli espionage and organized crime. His stepfather Samuel Pisar was the best friend and lawyer of Robert Maxwell -- the criminal Israeli "superspy" who was Ghislaine Maxwell's father.

Robert Maxwell died in 1991 and was given an elaborate Israeli state funeral. Pisar, allegedly the last person to see Maxwell alive, became Jeffrey Epstein's lawyer. I've gone over the Maxwell family history many times, but here is an excerpt of HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT with key details:

Oh look, it's GOP leader and presidential candidate Bob Dole's foreign agent registration forms from when he worked for oligarch Oleg Deripaska.

And he's one of the few to admit it! There's a long dark history here. Not limited to the GOP either.

Tweet from March 2018. I still think this is the crux of what's happening. Assumed it would play out under Trump, not Biden. But it's one continuous agenda, with recurring actors. Another tweet from 2018. Worth considering as the Biden admin lets Ukraine down, dragging that war out while prioritizing Israel. Upon Trump's reinstallation, this will turn into straightforward support of the Kremlin.

Imagine if on Sept 12, 2001, Netanyahu was asked what he thought of the 9/11 attacks and he said “It’s very good.”

Oh wait you don’t need to imagine because that’s what he actually did:

nytimes.com/2001/09/12/us/…
Imagine if Netanyahu kept saying how great the 9/11 attacks were for Israel — he just couldn’t shut up about it!

And then imagine he said he kept bragging he “predicted” the 9/11 attacks, to the point his buddies told him to stop foreignpolicy.com/2008/04/16/quo…

FFS we’ve known about Trump’s Hitler fandom since 1990, when Vanity Fair reported on it. That’s 34 years ago, people! archive.vanityfair.com/article/share/…
Why is the media reporting on a well-established phenomenon as if it were brand-new? It’s a propaganda tactic I explained in my 2022 book THEY KNEW:

It should chill you that Biden and the DNC don’t understand why the average Dem voter is horrified by the mass slaughter of 25000 civilians and in particular, 13000 children.

That objecting to child murder is so unfathomable to them that they think it’s is an op is revealing. Before you “but Hamas” my mentions, the average Dem voter also finds the murder and kidnapping of 1200 civilians in Israel horrifying.

Which is why they don’t want more carnage carried out, with their tax dollars, on a massive scale against Palestinians who didn’t do anything!

Johnson is a religious fanatic who believes God appointed him to serve Israel. He has met with the Kahanists — the most extremist sect of Israel’s govt — more than any US pol except Jim Jordan. His moves toward other countries should be viewed through this lens, not separately. Israel and Russia have long worked closely together. Oligarchs from the former USSR with multiple citizenships, including Israeli, fund the US Congress. Mafia ties, religious fanaticism, and kleptocracy bind the worst of these countries together and annihilate US sovereignty.

Biden overrode Congress, the international community, and the American public to enable mass murder. He did it so a foreign country could massacre civilians, including over 10000 children, with impunity on America’s dime.

Nothing can justify it morally or strategically. So why? Over and over, Dems say Biden lacks the power to do big things (like prevent coups) and smaller things (like firing the criminal postmaster).

But when it comes to enabling war crimes, there is no law that cannot be broken or ignored. The powerlessness dissipates with bloodlust.

I started my career studying Uzbekistan. I spent 20 years studying dictatorships and abuse of power in the US and by the US overseas. What the Israeli govt is doing now is worse than anything I've seen, because of the child murder toll and gleeful brutality and utter impunity. People will undoubtedly bring up other massacres and genocides and my response will always be "Yes that is horrible and should have been stopped or must be stopped." I feel the same about Hamas' 10/7 attack.

If you can recognize those evils, recognize this one, and stop it.

Pritzker has a long history of financial corruption, documented here: inthesetimes.com/article/3-trou… x.com/SecBlinken/sta… When I'm bored and there's a new government appointment, I play "How many degrees from Jeffrey Epstein?"

Priztker: two, cousin Thomas being investigated for his role in Epstein crimes

Elliott Abrams is so monstrous he features in the @gaslitnation graphic novel on how to build a dictatorship.

He was just appointed to a prominent diplomatic position by Joe Biden.



Here's a video of Abrams laughing about the mass murders he facilitated. He was then given roles in the Bush and Trump admins.

And now Biden, because he's no different in this regard.

Trump has leverage not because of popularity or money, but because of:

1) A lifetime of global mafia ties
2) Blackmail he accumulated pre-2016 through Roy Cohn and other networks
3) State secrets he accumulated while in office
4) Courts packed with judges he chose That is why it was crucial to act early. Preferably around, say, 1987, but by 2015 at the latest. That way, if institutional actors decided to actually work on behalf of the American people (they’re not), they would have had a fighting chance.

The delay was complicity.

Trump has been involved in organized crime for over half a century. This is well-documented.

But on the rare occasions he is tried, the govt finds a new crime that they decontextualize from past crimes. Impeachment on Ukraine instead of Mueller probe. MAL docs instead of 1/6. Trump’s crimes are a continuum involving a large transnational network as well as complicity from US govt officials. He confesses to crimes so freely — obstruction of justice twice on TV alone! — that it a challenge not to indict. And so, the new decontextualized trials appear.

"There is a difference between expecting mass violence and accepting it. People expect mass shootings now. They are no longer shocked like they were after Columbine. But that does not mean they accept it at all."
patreon.com/posts/blood-di… "Most Americans, including most gun owners, want stricter gun laws. The vast majority of Americans are appalled by mass shootings; that also crosses political lines. Most Americans are deeply frustrated -- to say the least -- with our leadership for doing nothing for so long."
