Sad Stories Can Be Found at The Wayback Machine, Facebook Memories and The Wikileaks Archive!

My Facebook Memory Post, written March 4, 2017 (2:27 am)

>>>Please understand there’s lots of Russian and Trump garbage, and much of it very worthy of investigation. But let’s still be clear. Main media would have more credibility on the Russian subject had it adequately reported on former UK ambassador Craig Murray. Lots of Americans don’t even know who he is (google him, please, if you don’t). Most US media never reported about him at all!

What’s sad is this very grave omission provides traction to Trump’s fake news allegations. Trump, of all people, should never be able to get away with such a claim.

Indeed, there are lies, distortions, omissions and perversions of fact. Main media, for credibility sake, must withstand the scrutiny to each of these standards. And do note that Trump has failed miserably on this; so also the main media! Hence, the problem!

Bottom line? There is no proof that Russians “hacked” the DNC and Podesta emails. There is proof that they were “leaks.” (see Craig Murray) Sadly, main media has not been truthful on this. I don’t get it. Why give Trump mileage when he deserves none!<<<

Barking Up The Wrong Tree

Those who blindly fell prey to Clinton’s (thus the Democratic Party’s) Russiagate excuse to ignore the content of the Wikileaks-released emails, cover over her 1.2 billion dollar loss and keep Clinton politically viable need to realize Russia, China and most of the non-NATO world would have preferred a true thinker, not a warmonger, elected into the White House in 2016.

Both Clinton and Trump were fronts for America’s militaristic oligarchy, although Trump lied to the electorate when he claimed he was against America’s wars. Trump is such an incessant liar we rarely hear him mention the swamp these days, as this lie is now well-defined. What’s truly sad is Republicans and way too many Democrats supported Trump’s 720 billion dollar defense budget.

If, like before, there were 50 major American media companies today — instead of only five now monopolizing 90% of all media —it’s likely Russiagate never would have lasted as long as it has, and Trump never would have become media-manufactured into becoming the GOP nominee.

I submit the recent upswing in Trump’s approval ratings is due to backlash over faulty Russiagate allegations against him and the faulty behavior of some of those involved with the Russiagate investigation. Too many unsupported “bombshells” maybe?

What’s also troubling are the latest statistics from Gallup’s monthly voter registration tracking, which now shows the GOPwingers now hold a one-point advantage over Democrats, 31% to 30%. Independents, who strongly support Bernie Sanders, are at 39%.

Trump Never Properly Vetted by Media When He Announced

Importantly, most everything Michael Cohen recently testified to the House Committee existed prior to, during and shortly after Trump’s presidential announcement. The media should have taken Trump to the cleaners, on multiple fronts, at that time. Instead monopolized main media connections opted to help the Clinton Campaign by making Trump her easy-to-defeat pied piper candidate (see Wikileaks) for the general election. Hello RussiaGate!

Today, we suffer from perhaps the most disdainful politics ever in American history. The world too suffers as America, under Trump, has morphed into becoming the United States of Sanctioning America. War threats are real, multiple and serious and the cloak of nuclear devastation lingers in part as a consequence to RussiaGate.

There is only one way to turn this around: Rally strongly as a United Front with Bernie Sanders. He’s the only candidate with both the heart and the wisdom to pull it off. Were it not for the hanky-panky described above he would have won in 2016 and, overall, we’d be a happier nation. Let’s make this happen in 2020!
