'Attack, attack, attack—never defend.'

The Trump and GOP way.

Also a preferred tactic of the mafia and Kremlin, coincidentally. "Roy’s tactics—shared with a young Trump—can be summarized like this: 1) Never admit you’re wrong. 2) If they attack you, counterattack viciously. 3) When you’re in trouble, distract & divert attention."

"And now that he has completed his $44 billion purchase of the company, it is imperative that we consider why he wanted it – and what he will most likely do with it."

FYI - some details involving former business ventures of Pelosi attacker David DePape and former female associate (partner?) Gypsy Taub are apparently quite salacious. MAGA forums have picked up on it, but media hasn't yet. They are now spinning even worse conspiracy theories. The website is no longer active, but it appears to have been for a low budget porn studio. Image

If you want to understand the current situation in America, certain other countries provide extremely useful case studies. They've often been used as testing grounds for what we experience later. And it often involves Russia.

In particular - Ukraine, Moldova, and Hungary. ImageImageImageImage The Cold War was never over. Russia just kept on doing what it knows best.

Corruption, subversion, repression, terrorism, propaganda, etc.
