Yes, Collusion with Russia; Trump, the Republican Party, and American conservatives are allies and paid by Putin’s Russia

"Fool me once, shame, shame on you.  Fool me twice... won't get fooled again!" - George still the W(orst President Ever) Bush.

Sold Out in Russia

For years, it was obvious, the Republican Party was a wholly owned subsidiary of the FSB/GRU and by
extension Vladimir Putin.  Now, we have concrete legal evidence and a wide-ranging indictment which names numerous Republican influencers receiving money from Russia.

By whatever mechanism they got there the Republican Party is in willingly cahoots with Vladimir Putin to undermine Law&Order and destroy the United States of America.  Throughout history, dissident groups have always sought to undermine their own peoples, Nations, or rulers using foreign influence to put themselves back into power so this is nothing new.

When Russian Ron Johnson and other Republican Senators paid homage to Vlad Putin by visiting Russia on Independence Day 2018, were a clear cut example of paying fealty to your Lord and Ruler. 

Trump is, of course, a special case as he invited the nascent Russian Mob and their illicit funds into all of his New York City operations in the 1990's to bolster his failing fortunes.  By, the time Trump stole into 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, he openly invited Russian agents into the Oval Office, where they yucked up their collusion and strike at the heart of American freedom, democracy, and liberty.

Now, comes a Department of Justice charging document highlighting how numerous rightwing influencers and journalists are paid "indirectly" by Russian agents.

CatTurd believes in Benny; DOJ doesn't

And look who got paid;  you'll be unsurprised by those named, Benny Johnson, Tim Pool, David Rubin, and Lauren Southern rightwing liars who push rightwing lies and call for the arrest and deaths of Democratic officials holders and whatever groups or individuals Republicans are currently demonizing.

“Should these allegations prove true, I as well as the other personalities and commentators were deceived,” bald weirdo Tim Pool wrote.  Pool you will recall called for the summary arrest of Democrats for unspecified crimes to which Laura Loomer called for Execution and when #KamalaHQ pointed out this, he threatened to sue for having his words quoted.

“I knew absolutely nothing about any of this fraudulent activity. Period,” wrote Dave Rubin, a gay Republican who apparently enjoys being attacked for being gay by his rightwing fans.

And if you believe these rightwing liars didn't know they were lying and catapulting Russian propaganda, while being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars a month, well you're most likely one of these Twitter (X) Bots created to amplify the propaganda or a MAGA choade unreachable by facts, logic, reason, evidence, or reality.

There are two groups of Republicans who will respond to this Department of Justice indictment;  one group are soft and they've been bamboozled by Trump and the Republicans for a long, long time but, having swallowed Trump's lies and Republican falsehoods for so long its' far easier for them to allow themselves to be fooled again rather than confront the truth; that they support a party which is wedded to destroying the Nation, enslaving the vast majority of the American people into perpetual corporate bondage, while murdering those who resist.  So they will swallow their cognitive dissonance and vote for Trump 3rd time.

Or...  like most of Trump's rabid psychotic Neo-Nazi supporters they will attack this as "weaponization" of the Department of Justice and dig in further because they want POWER; the power to beat women, the power to spit on migrants and homeless people, the power to imprison minorities, the power to tell liberals, democrats, and everyone who is not them what to do.  And finally the power to kill those whom they hate.  

And make no mistake, Republicans hate YOU, Republicans hate America, and Republicans want to destroy America and replace it with their Fascist Fundamentalist Dream State.

Here's Mike Davis, slated to be Trump's Attorney General in 2025, talking to paid Russian stooge Benny Johnson,

 I will rain hell on Washington, D.C. We've talked about this, Ben. I have five lists, ready to go and they're growing. List number one, we're gonna fire. We're gonna fire a lot of people in the executive branch, in the deep state. Number two, we're gonna indict. We're gonna indict Joe Biden and Hunter Biden and James Biden and every other scumball, sleazeball, Biden, except for the five year old granddaughter who they refused to acknowledge for five years until the political pressure got to Joe Biden.

Number three, we're gonna deport. We're gonna deport a lot of people, 10 million people and growing - anchor babies, their parents, their grandparents. We're gonna put kids in cages. It's gonna be glorious. We're gonna detain a lot of people in the D.C. gulag and Gitmo. And list number five, I'm gonna recommend a lot of pardons. Every January 6th defendant is gonna get a pardon, especially my hero horn man. He is definitely at the top of the pardon list. 

Look, maybe... maybe, actual proof that Republican liars are actively being paid by Putin causes Trump to lose some votes, but don't count on it.  Trump is the White Rightwing Male fantasy.  They draw him up like muscly Rambo not because they see him that way but, that they see themselves that way.  Trump represents the last, best hope to do what Republicans have sought for 50 years;  the complete and total destruction of the United States of America. 

Trump and the Republican Party encourages Russia to Attack the United States and NATO

 Whether it's Republicans attacking Joe Biden's memory or Republicans encouraging Putin to attack NATO, Bothsides have a problem with Attacks on Democracy.

The Corporate Media got a big laugh when Traitor Trump, declared during a debate with HRC, "No puppet.  No puppet." when HRC pointed out Trump loves Vladimir Putin and was beholden to him because of the money the Putin funneled into Manhattan and into Trump's failed real estate "empire".

Hahahaha!  Then Trump went out and conspired with the FSB, GRU and other Russian intelligence services to defraud the United States of America in 2016.  But, once again the Corporate Media decided to cover Trumps claims of "No Collusion!" even in the face of the Untied States Senate led by Republicans report that Yes Trump did collude with Russia.

Since, then by their actions it's obvious the Republican Party is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Russian Government and Vladimir Putin.

It's no coincidence that following in the footsteps of Tucker Carlson's "interview"of Putin, Trump took to the Stage in South Carolina to tell one of his bullshit phony Sir Stories,

In this latest iteration, Trump begins this "Sir Story",

“One of the presidents of a big country stood up and said, ‘Well, sir, if we don’t pay, and we’re attacked by Russia, will you protect us?’” Trump said, adding “I said, ‘You didn’t pay, you’re delinquent?’” 

“No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. You got to pay. You got to pay your bills.”

Trump encouraged a raging warmongering dictator to invade US Allies.  Is this enough to get the Corporate Media to call for him to stop running for President?  I think you know the answer.

I know Trump lies all the time, but he's telling the Truth about where his allegiances lie, they lie entirely with his own self-interests.  Putin and the Russian Mob floated hundreds of millions of dollars to Trump when he was at his lowest bankrupt point in the 1990's.  Now, the rest of the Republican Party is helping Putin out of the sheer joy of being treasonous and allying with the enemies of the United States because the enemies of Democracy are the Allies of the GOP.

But, for Trump always remember anyone who doesn't kick some money to Trump is his enemy, that's what the "bill" Trump is referring too.  Trump expected NATO countries to kick a little money into Trump Inc. they way China and Russia and other Nations did when Trump was President.

Last year, Tommy Tuberville took a break from holding up thousands of military promotions to blame NATO and Ukraine for the Russian Invasion of Feb 2022, 

“First of all, you have got to look back at what caused this conflict.  What caused this conflict is the United States expanding NATO from all the way from inner central Europe all the way almost now to Ukraine. They have pushed Ukraine into being in NATO. President Putin said that is not going to happen.  We are not going to allow the United States basically to be on our border. That is the reason he is fighting this war.”

Who do you think this "We" is, that Tuberville referenced?  I read a lot of articles where people express shock at how the Republicans went from being against Russia to embracing Russia, but, those people seem to forget the passage of time and the recognition of like-minded Authoritarians.  The GOP of Ronnie Raygun attacking the Evil Empire is long gone, the Modern MAGA GOP fully recognizes Dictators and Fascist Governments are their natural allies.  Conservatives understand they have more in common with the brutal governments of Putin's Russia or Orban's Hungary than with the United States of America especially when the Democratic Party has representation in the Federal Government.

Trump openly admits his admiration of Dictators and his firm intent to be a Dictator.  But, the Corporate Media is fully invested in softening treasonous Republican declarations, continues to play off Trump's fascist ideations as jokes, "take him seriously, not literally" remember?

But, then Trump has never been shy about his love affairs with brutal dictators

During his interview with Maria Bartiromo over at Faux News, Trump couldn't hide his admiration of President Xi of China (It should also always be pointed out China paid Trump money during his Presidency, which probably explains why Trump love Xi)

"I like President Xi a lot... he was a very good friend of mine.  Sure...  No no no I got along with him great.  I'm not sure he loved what I was doing, yeah but I was getting along with him.  Look, the market almost crashed when I won Iowaand New Hampshire the market went down tremendously..." 

Of course, Republicans and the MAGA horde overwhelmingly want Trump to in fact be a Dictator

because they yearn to put journalists who question them, migrants trying to come here, women who get abortions, black people who get "out of line", and LGBTQ persons who have the temerity to exist, into death camps.

Wagner Group Coup Attempt? Republicans worry about Putin's well-being!

Update:

Was it all a ruse?  This "Insurrection" launched while Prigozhin was so far from Moscow?  I can only hope President Biden is receiving detailed and  timely information.  And I can't say I see the geo-political benefit to Putin.  Nor how the Attempted Coup solidifies Putin's power.  As his Lieutenants had to work it out without his imprimatur.  

Wisconsin disgrace Ron Johnson, who likes to spend his 4th of July, paying fealty to Vladimir Putin might be considering a resolution to send troops into Russia to help Putin put down the apparent Coup attempt launched by Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the paramilitary Wagner group.

This began when Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, issued a decree that all Paramilitary groups must sign a loyalty oath to the Ministry of Defense by July 1st.  Prigozhin, began this action, by claiming in a nod to Russian history that the Tsar has been deceived and it's up to him to remove the bad bureaucratic elements enriching themselves and betraying Russia!  Wagner group then claimed to have been fired upon by Russian military forces and Prigozhin turned his mercenaries backs towards Russia, seizing Rostov-on-Don and sending advance elements into Voronezh in an obvious attempt to make it to Moscow.  Putin has vowed to destroy this rebellion and thus far at least enough of his shattered military is responding instead of standing aside;

"All those who consciously stood on the path of betrayal, who prepared an armed rebellion, stood on the path of blackmail and terrorist methods, will suffer inevitable punishment, before the law and before our people,"Putin said in a five-minute speech.

Prigozhin seems to have bitten off more than he can Coup, because an attempt like this relies upon speed and not allowing heavy weaponry and military units interfere.  Wagner group has captured some equipment as well so their eventual inability to resupply is not yet a factor but, if they get bogged down or if Putin manages to deploy loyal troops to engage in a protracted skirmish to slow/stop the Wagner group advance it may signal the end of the Coup attempt.  

Also taking a wait and see approach are the rabid Putin loving Reactionaries who for 16 months have declared Ukraine's resistance and US/NATO support of said resistance a monstrous mistake and tantamount to a war crime.  Glenn Greenwald has yet to weigh in on this monumental situation and is silent down in Brazil because he doesn't know who will be signing his checks come tomorrow morning.

President Biden keeps telling the truth about Putin and Russian War Crimes which makes Republicans mad

According to a new book, President Biden correctly labeled Rupert Murdoch and Fox, "one of the most destructive forces in the United States."  President Biden also correctly called Putin a War Criminal.  But, despite Joe's comments being 100% demonstrably true and factual the President garnered pushback from Putin's Poodles in the GOP and rightwing internet. 

One of the rhetorical tools Republicans have used for years is to claim President Joe Biden is a gaffe-machine.  The GQP found willing accomplices in the Corporate Media which was always at the ready to excoriate Biden for his misspeaks.

Well, now that Vladimir Putin's forces have committed documented War Crimes in Bucha, Republicans have fully descended into the QAnon abyss of lies.  Republicans are furious!  No not with the War Crimes!  But, that Putin's military invasion should be going so badly and making Republicans look so bad for defending and supporting a KGB Colonel for so long! 

Petulant Republican children Matt Gaetz and Major Traitor Greene s are so mad at Putin, that they've taken to yelling at US SecDef Lloyd Austin for President Biden's successful rallying NATO and providing Ukraine weapons and support to defeat Russian forces.

Obviously, the Republicans think bombarding the American people with non-stop rightwing agitprop and falsehoods about Justice Ketanji Brown-Jackson or Pete Buttigieg or President Biden is a winning strategy and maybe it is... because they goal is to get Americans to believe the lies Republicans tell about Democrats and disbelieve the truth told about Republicans.  Conservatives listen to these Trump rallies which are 100% falsehoods and cheer. 

But, once you've begun to accuse your political adversaries of being child rapists (and it's still unbelievably galling the Party of child abusers Donald Trump and Dennis Hastert and Mark Foley accuses the Democrats) then there's really no backtracking.  There's no way the Republicans can work with Democrats after this.  And since 9/11 this is entirely what we have seen from the Republicans.  Increasing inflammatory rhetoric and a ratcheting up of the wild accusations.  So that now the Republican Party is a wholly fascist organization dedicated to destroying the Rule of Law in the United States and ensconcing a One Party Ethno-Nationalist White Supremacist Country.  The 2022 and especially 2024 elections are going to see a Manichaeist Rule or Ruin Republican Party.

Rightwing Pundit Glenn Greenwald

But, before the next elections Republicans are harming plenty of people here and killing plenty of people abroad.  The images emerging from Bucha in Ukraine are War Crimes.  But, the pushback and defense of Putin and Russian war crimes on-line and by elected Republicans and powerful conservatives in the media is a stark harbinger of the Fascist American future.  

Michael Tracey should have the common courtesy

to remain dead after Maxine Waters murdered him

Throughout this Russian military build-up, invasion and now documented war crimes the Biden White House has shared accurate intel and stated facts about Putin and the conduct of the Russian military; Yet the chattering class of Twitter Reactionaries were having a grand time in February chortling and chastising Biden as Chicken Little but, since the invasion began Twitter right-wingers transitioned to non-stop promoting of Russian War Propaganda.

And the Putin apologists haven't been mollified by the images coming from Bucha.  Every new day highlights how their previous day's twitter rants are 100% wrong, but there's no penalty for being an idiot on Twitter (Michael Tracey and Glenn Greenwald are just the biggest Twitter Propagandists, there are 1000's like them) and these people who were wrong yesterday, wrong today, get to be wrong tomorrow and continue on as though their previous errors don't undermine their current errors.
