What's New?

The saga continues. The news seems to be the same, day, after day, after day. "The Trump's have stepped in some more of their own dodo." The group is a circus short of a couple of clowns. Their group is a half sandwich short of a picnic. They can't seem to walk and chew gum at the same time. Whatever cliche one chooses, they all seem to apply. Writing a blog is difficult. Especially when the news seems the same each day. Hence, I probably will take another turn away from "exposing" Trumps. Others seem to be doing a great job exposing the idiocy of the group. I've wanted to get my views of this politic travesty on record. I think that's accomplished.

As it plays out we will find the Trumps have, if not laundered money, had shady money entanglements with Russians. The Russian government is privy to these dealings and know they have power over the Trumps. The Russians help the Trumps win the election. Circling the wagons, the Trumps appoint only family and those involved with Russians to their inner circle. If they can keep their base, the Republican government can protect the Trumps. Once the inner circle starts unraveling there will be a circular firing squad like no other. Putin and his cronies will be organizing the firing squad. Bob Mueller will go down in history as the savior of our democracy. Remember though, I predicted Kasich and Rubio would be the Republican ticket in the 2016 general election.

We now await history to play out. I'm proud to say again, "We're on the right (correct) side of history."

So it goes.

What Is True?

    Now that we know Russia, Trump and others are placing false news in all media, one has to suspect all news. This is a new normal. It brings into question how much influence was false that we all used to make our decisions.
    It's a sure bet conservatives won't believe articles in The Washington Post, New York Times, The Columbia Journalism Review and the like, but, these news gatherers do due diligence and require multiple sources prior to committing to an article.
     I'm beginning to read other news gathers with an eye to, "when, who, what and why" prior to placing much trust in it. FoxNews is not the only name in the diversion game now. With powerful culprits planting stories to sway cultures one must use all available resources and intelligence to make judgements.
     I confess prior to knowing stories were being planted to sway decisions, I fell into the rabbit warren. I'm happy to say, I eventually did realize what was happening and began questioning all news reports. Everyone pay attention. Not all news is accurate. So it goes.

Washing The Trump Laundry

For months I've been touting the Trump's laundering of money is what they're afraid of being exposed. This article indicates maybe they are aware of the power of the Bear and are truly afraid for their lives. A quote from the article - "What I believe I see here is an incredibly corrupt American family doing business with criminal gangs that are way, way out of their league, and that are in league with the institutions of government, and the formidable security apparatus, of an authoritarian state. Talk about punching out of your weight class. This isn't cheating some poor subcontractor. These people throw you out windows. And the Trumps have being doing business in this financial abattoir for years. This doesn't make them sharp. This makes them compliant minnows in a shark tank.

Not to borrow trouble, but what if these guys decide that the president's son—or, god forbid, the president himself—have become as inconvenient as Sergei Magnitsky was. For months now, people have been asking what the Russians "have" on Donald Trump. Maybe it's just fear. If it's not, it ought to be."

So it goes.
