We should have a pool about which new Two Minutes Hate will crop up after the whole Russia thing dies. I bet if I look hard enough somebody online has already created one for us.

I didn't manage to find a pool before I had to go, but I found this great article on the subject...

Quote:
I’m not suggesting that these tsunamis of online outrage are bad because their targets are invalid. Sometimes they are, but that’s not my point. My point is that participation in them is harmful — to you, and to us all — even though, maybe even especially when, its targets are completely valid.
It’s a weird and crazy and utopian notion, I know, but here’s an odd proposal. Maybe it’s too much to ask that you stop tweeting snd sharing your outrage and hate. But how about this: if you do participate, then for every ejaculation of fury, add another one, a balancing tweet, a quick thoughtful Facebook post, wherein you express some compassion — again, not sympathy, not agreement, but compassion — for someone with whom you bitterly disagree. You never know. It might become a habit.

Quote:John Bolton is a greedy dumb bastard, overly articulate, who works for bigger and greedier bastards who don’t speak as well as Bolton. In 2018, the White House reported that Bolton's total income for 2017 had been $2.2 million which included $569,000 from Fox News and $747,000 in speaking fees from, among others, the Victor Pinchuk Foundation (a Ukrainian NGO), Deutsche Bank, and HSBC.

There is no secret conspiracy by some mysterious group of people within a "Deep State". How do I know? I worked for the greedy dumb bastards who are forever pushing the Federal government to do extraordinarily stupid things because that makes them rich. I graduated from Sam Rayburn High School, Pasadena, in 1970. That summer I went to work at a drafting board for Brown & Root in Houston. It had contracts to build in Vietnam. You probably don't know, but Mr Brown was bankrolling President Lyndon Johnson, infamous for the Vietnam War, back in 1940 as a member of the House of Representatives.
B&R was a big cheerleader for the Vietnam War, as were all its office employees. B&R was owned by Halliburton, Dick Cheney’s company. Remember Cheney? Bush’s V.P. and also a big cheerleader for the Iraq War. Halliburton made billions from that war, as it did from Vietnam. This is all out in the open. Your so-called "Deep State" is just a bunch of greedy dumb asses like Bolton or Cheney or LBJ, chasing after money.
Bolton sees some future Iran War as another opportunity, much like Vietnam, to make a big pile of money. That's why he promotes a war with Iran. He won't admit it, but that motivates him.

Quote:Thankfully, you misspelled strategic as "strtegic" interests. Trump has told everyone, over and over, what he thinks America's "strtgic" interests are and there is always more and more missing from his "strtgc". My explanation is that since WWII, America has been living inside a tale told by many idiots, full of sound and fury signifying almost nothing. Signym, if you want to explain Federal government policy as a conspiracy run by a Deep State, I can't convince you that real explanation is widespread American avarice and stupidity disguised as generosity and wisdom by hundreds of thousands of highly articulate spokesmen whose full time jobs are to beautify Americans’ motivations. Then there are millions of Americans who make it their part-time job. Then there are hundreds of millions of Americans that want to believe these beautiful & glowing tales about themselves being spread by full and part time spokesmen heaping praise upon them. As you can probably tell, I woke up grumpy. That is because I’m going to watch my lawyers beat some more sense into a greedy Texas businessman, another blowhard liar like Trump or Nixon (or Rudy or Bolton), who has a much higher opinion of his personal integrity and the quality of his work than the cold hard facts will support.

And one that's just as stupid as the people he claims to despise?
Here's where your logic falls to your permanent grotch: You have demonstrated that many people are FOOLED into supporting greedy, avaricious policies. Now, if these people were greedy and avaricious, would they NEED to be fooled that our policies are for "democracy" or because we represent a "shining city on a hill" or because of "WMD" or some such nonsense?
Hell no! It would be sufficient to say that "Venezuela is a competing oil interest and is destabilizing the petrodollar, therefore we want to install our hand-picked rightwing IMF toady so we can corral oil and currency markets again" The reason WHY the deep state needs to construct such elaborate hoaxes to cover our real regime-change rationale is NOT because people are greedy, and NOT because people are powerless, but it's exact opposite: "The people" might actually affect policy if they got off their hind legs and figured out what was going on, and the deep state cannot afford to have that happen.
Now, those who spend many hundreds of thousands of words convincing "the people" that various imaginary fables are true (like you, or Rachel Maddow, or Elliot Abrams) ... are you or they the decision-makers? Is there a scintilla's-worth of truth in anything you - or they - say? Or are they just covering for the real reasons of the real decision-makers?
It's been my experience that when a foreign (or domestic) event doesn't make sense ... when the reasons given don't square with reality ... it's not that the people who're deciding don't have extremely good reasons (from their POV) to do what they do. They've just managed to throw enough chaff into the air to confuse you, along with all of the other "stupid" people out there.
But if you think about it long enough and gather enough information and maintain an open mind when answering the question cui bono? you'll eventually figure out the why, and the who.
And now, since you're so hate-filled and vicious that it must be because you're in some sort of pain, there's no point in continuing this discussion further. Basically, you're being driven by something to the point of irrationality and can't maintain a conversation.

John Dean: "I testified against Nixon. My appearance before Congress helped take down a president. Will the same thing happen to Trump?"
There are several parallels between my testimony before Congress in 1973, about President Richard Nixon and his White House, and Michael Cohen’s testimony this week about President Trump and his business practices. Setting aside the differences regarding how we got there, we both found ourselves speaking before Congress, in multiple open and closed venues, about criminal conduct of a sitting president of the United States.
Polls varied widely after my testimony. One said 50 percent of Americans believed me, 30 percent did not, and 20 percent were not sure.
While my testimony was eventually corroborated by secret recordings of our conversations made by Mr. Nixon, before that it was other witnesses who made the difference. I was surprised by the number of people who surfaced to support my account. The same, I suspect, will happen for Michael Cohen. The Mafia’s code of omertà has no force in public service. I have heard no one other than Roger Stone say he will go to jail for Donald Trump.
Just as Mr. Nixon had his admirers and apologists, so it is with Mr. Trump. Some of these people will forever be rewriting history. They will put words in Mr. Cohen’s mouth that he never spoke. They will place him at events at which he wasn’t present. Some have tried rewriting my life, and they will rewrite his, too. Presidential scandals tend to attract a remarkable number of dishonest “historians.”
Mr. Cohen read a closing statement. He told the legislators, “Given my experience working for Mr. Trump, I fear that if he loses the election in 2020 that there will never be a peaceful transition of power, and this is why I agreed to appear before you today.” This was the most troubling — actually, chilling — thing he said in his five hours before the committee. Mr. Trump is the first authoritarian president since Mr. Nixon, and neither he nor his supporters will play fair. Mr. Cohen will be dealing with these people the rest of his life.

Quote:Yes, Trump is the same as ever. No evidence he can change. As George Washington’s biographer, Douglas Southall Freeman, explained, the first president believed he had been entrusted with something of immense intrinsic worth, and that his duty was to uphold it for its own sake and over the long term. He led by moral example.

Yet another Monday without results.
Few of our subsequent presidents have come close to the example Washington set, but none to date has been as far from that standard as Trump.
In the 2016 presidential campaign, when accused of failing to pay his income taxes, Trump responded “that makes me smart”. His comment conveyed a message to millions of Americans: that paying taxes in full is not an obligation.
Trump boasted about giving money to politicians so they would do whatever he wanted. “When they call, I give. And you know what, when I need something from them two years later, three years later, I call them. They are there for me.” In other words, it’s perfectly OK for business leaders to pay off politicians, regardless of the effect on our democracy.
Trump sent another message by refusing to reveal his tax returns during the campaign or even when he took office, or to put his businesses into a blind trust to avoid conflicts of interest, and by his overt willingness to make money off his presidency by having foreign diplomats stay at his Washington hotel, and promoting his various golf clubs.
These were not just ethical lapses. They directly undermined the common good by reducing the public’s trust in the office of the president.

Something I guess I didn't realize:
All of the charges spewed out by Mueller were for activities which occurred prior to Trump launching his campaign, or as a result of Mueller's Witch Hunt, or occurred during the Witch Hunt. And the Official Witch Hunt did not commence until after Trump was Inaugurated.
So NONE of these activities occurred during the Presidential campaign.
It is hard to remember that none of them occurred during that time frame, because we all know that so many horrendous and Malicious crimes were perpetrated during that period - but they were all committed by Team Hilliary/Obama.

Ex-president dies after shooting himself to avoid arrest
Peru’s former president Alan Garcia died in a hospital in Lima on Wednesday after shooting himself as police arrived at his house to arrest him in connection with a bribery probe, authorities said on Wednesday.
Garcia, who had repeatedly denied wrongdoing, was 69.

I approve 100% of ex-Presidents being charged with crimes. There should not be immunity from prosecution. If the guilty ones kill themselves before being arrested, that is even better.

So NONE of these activities occurred during the Presidential campaign.
It is hard to remember that none of them occurred during that time frame, because we all know that so many horrendous and Malicious crimes were perpetrated during that period - but they were all committed by Team Hilliary/Obama.
You just realized this?
BTW... if you weren't aware of it, you might be interested to know about Manafort's links to the Podesta Group, related to his charges.

Barr spun everything in Trump’s favor — and literally walked offstage when he was called on it.
REPORTER: Is it an impropriety for you to come out and sort of spin the report before people are able to read it?
BARR: No. *walks away*

I had imagined that once the Witch Hunt Fishing Expedition was over, the delusions might lose momentum.
But, despite there being No Evidence, new threads of Delusion continue to sprout up.

Russia didn’t help Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.
O.K., it did help him, but the campaign itself wasn’t involved.
O.K., the campaign had a lot of Russian contacts and knowingly received information from the Russians, but that was perfectly fine.
If you’ve been trying to follow the Republican response to revelations about what happened in 2016, you may be a bit confused. New excuses keep emerging, but old excuses are never abandoned. On one side, we have Rudy Giuliani saying that “there’s nothing wrong with taking information from Russians.” On the other side, we have Jared Kushner denying that Russia did anything beyond taking out “a couple of Facebook ads.”
If you have been following Republican arguments over the years, you know that the party’s response to evidence of Russian intervention in 2016 is standard operating procedure. On issue after issue, what you see are multiple levels of denial combined with a refusal ever to give up an argument no matter how completely it has been discredited.

Still No Evidence.
Yet Delusionals (aka Liberals) continue to rant on as if there might be, maybe, someday, some to gloat about.

Well, Still No Evidence of what Mueller was pretending to investigate.
But plenty of evidence of the crimes Mueller was perpetrating under the pretext of investigating nonexistent infractions.
