Well, it's finally out. The Russian election interference myth has been staked through the heart.
A lot of people are owed apologies. All the journalists who got it right (Mark Ames, Michael Tracey, Consortium News, The Grayzone, Ted Rall) deserve to be heard. The ones who got it wrong deserve to be ignored.
And I bet Trump is happy...though fortunately for the sake of Justice, Fani Wilkes, Letitia James, and E. Jean Carroll are helping him face justice for his real crimes.
Alas, Durham pulled his punches. No charges against Robby Mook or Alexandra Chalupa. No charges against Christopher Steele. No charges against the Ukrainians who did interfere. No charges against Stefan Halper. No charges against Dimitri Alperovitch and Crowdstrike.
Still, the truth is out.
And, with Russian interference debunked, Russian doping debunked, and Russian hacking debunked, it's time we took a long hard look at all the sanctions from Browder's bill of attainder to the recent attempts to punish Russia for protecting the Donbass.
What scares me is that Democrats always first accuse others of doing what they are about to do.
When protesters marched in Washington after the killing of George Floyd, Donald Trump asked General Milley why the troops couldn’t just shoot them, suggesting maybe just “in the leg.”
Milley replied that he could not, because that would be illegal.
The Supreme Court has now ruled that it no longer will be, at least certainly not for the President to order it. And he can pardon the general that carries it out, and fire the ones that refuse.
If that doesn’t scare you, then I guess you can keep talking about stupid things like taking Biden off the ballot. If it does, then maybe focus on making sure it doesn’t happen, pressuring for Supreme Court reform, and saving this fucking country.
