Russia! Russia! Forever: An Anatomy of
a Left-wing Obsession

Original Article

Posted By: rememberwhen, 2/26/2024 4:08:28 PM

As this year’s election nears, expect Russia! Russia! fantasies to heat up again to mask a failing administration and its indefensible record. The more candidate Trump in 2016 trolled the Clinton campaign (e.g., “Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing, I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press”), the more the irate left bought into hysterical conspiracy theories.

Comments:

More brilliant analysis by VDH. The 2024 Russia narrative has already begun with the arrest of the IRS whistleblower, which kills two birds with one stone: (1) It covers Biden's backside; and (2) It gets EVIL Russia back in the political news.

Too long for most of the current crop of LDotters, this brilliant and detailed walk through history should be a Must Read. It should be everyone's anyway, but that is too much to hope for. If we are determined to ignore (avoid?) history, we are doomed to repeat it...

Meh. 90% of voters will never be reminded of these things by our biased media. instead we will be inundated with Democrat talking points. As Malcolm X said - the media can make murderers innocent and innocents into murderers

At their 1st meeting...while dems were insisting that Russia and Trump colluded to win, (later totally debunked) The media demanded that Trump TELL Putin not to meddle with elections...he did, outloud, to his face, twice, including with a pointed finger. They both laughed, because the ONLY two people in the entire world that KNEW beyond any doubt that they never colluded were...Putin and Trump. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNOkqEL7FzY

Shucks. I'm old enough to remember when Democrats were pals and always colluding with the Russians (USSR). When Nixon and Reagan were President, they were colluding like there was no tomorrow. Now, Democrats and their media whores do things that would make Sen Joe McCarthy blush with embarrassment.

it's not "Obsession" it's tactic only they've played the same old card game with the same deck of cards so, it's news as old as time itself = they keep playing this maneuver over and over again because they think we're stupid and will, someday, believe their worn out rhetoric

Wish this could be condensed into short bullet points to make it easier for people to understand. I don't think one needs all of the backup information any longer. What's clear, Trump never had a peaceful transition of power as they were trying to undermine him during the campaign, after he won, and throughout his Presidential term.

A so-called glitch on the Nevada Secretary of State’s website caused unmailed ballots to show up as counted in the recent Nevada primary. The Nevada Secretary of State’s office (run by Democrat Francisco Aguilar) on Sunday learned of the ‘glitch’ after numerous Nevada voters realized their votes were counted in the recent primary even though they didn’t participate.... “Again, this is an error that relates to the code used for when a voter is sent a mail ballot and does not return it; it has no connection in any way to vote tabulation,” the Secretary of State’s office said in a statement.

Democrats Against Democracy More evidence that when Democrats talk about Our Democracy™️ they don’t mean democracy. They mean not having to deal with those pesky opponents that sometimes, God forbid, win elections. Thus, Rasmussen finds that 78% of Democrats approve of “state officials removing Trump’s name from the ballot.” Well, that’s one way to make it easy to elect Democrats. In a parallel finding, 77% of Democrats say that the January 6 protest was “an insurrection that attempted to overthrow the government.”

With Donald Trump’s decisive victory in the New Hampshire Republican primary, the possibility of anyone else securing the party’s presidential nomination is vanishingly small. That depressing reality doesn’t mean that former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley should abandon her campaign to overtake Trump, which she vowed to continue. “New Hampshire is first in the nation — it is not the last in the nation,” Haley said, promising to carry her campaign to her home state’s GOP primary on Feb. 24.

Therefore, he meets the Constitutional standard for eligibility. Nikki Haley, on the other hand, is a much different story.

Over three years ago, on January 5, 2021, a suspect planted pipe bombs near the Washington DC RNC and DNC headquarters the night before the January 6, 2021 protests. The culprit was caught on video but never caught by the FBI – the greatest intelligence service in the world. The US Capitol was shut down on January 6 after the feds found the bombs near the Republican and Democrat Party headquarters. As previously reported — A mysterious suspect planted two pipe bombs at the RNC and DNC DC Headquarters. The alleged bomb was safely detonated by a bomb squad on January 6.

The post-Iowa consensus appears to be coalescing around the idea that Trump ought to ignore his GOP challengers and turn his focus entirely on Joe Biden...While I accept the premise, I wholeheartedly disagree with the target. Yes, Trump’s energies ought no longer be directed toward swatting flies on his rear, but pivoting toward Biden entirely is a strategic error. Biden is a symptom, not a cause of America’s illness. The cause lies in the embrace by the Democrat party of a Marxist/fascist hybrid collectivism, to be elevated by any means necessary.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was one of the greatest champions of American democracy...Dr. King was assassinated in 1968 while supporting a strike by sanitation workers in Memphis because he represented a fundamental threat to the white racial order and American apartheid. Unfortunately, while pushed back by the civil rights movements of the 1960s and 1970s, these same forces were never defeated in American society. Instead, they adapted and evolved to maintain their power and influence. With the Age of Trump, ascendant neofascism, and reinvigorated white supremacy the same social and political forces that martyred Dr. King are now reversing the gains of the civil rights movement.

eedback is a fundamental principle of control theory. All systems, regardless of whether they’re technical or social, require negative feedback to maintain predictability and stability. System actions which deviate from those desired must trigger a response which counteracts (rather than reinforces) the deviation. When an automobile begins to accelerate, the cruise control applies negative feedback by reducing the throttle to maintain control. Were it to do otherwise, the car’s behavior would be unpredictable or even catastrophic. The same principle applies to people. Accountability for one’s actions maintains the predictability of human behavior.

What must you do to fail at Harvard? It used to be pretty clear. You had to be caught cheating. Or doing something so outrageous that it’d get you thrown off campus. Not anymore. Today Harvard is an institution that thinks that antisemitism is OK and believes that plagiarism is fine. Not long ago, a student would have been kicked out for either of these sins. Today the president has been caught at both. And the board of the university stuck by her. Even when she decided to step down this week, both she and her supporters went into full-on “victimhood mode.”

For decades, American sports fans welcomed Bob Costas into their homes with open arms as he offered thoughtful commentary and analysis in regard to sports. That entire time, the veteran TV personality apparently held a deep personal hatred for so many of us. On Sunday during an interview on CNN, Costas referred to people who support former President Donald Trump’s bid for the White House — people who need immediate relief from inflation and illegal immigrant crime — as “toxic” and delusional.” The comments were made as the 71-year-old attacked Trump while speaking to network host Michael Smerconish.

The Supreme Court will not throw Donald Trump off the ballot through some sort of deus ex MSNBCmachina, and Trump’s polls are improving while President Crusty’s are getting worse, so we face the real possibility of Donald Trump winning the presidency. Obviously, it’s not a done deal, but it is a bigger possibility than it used to be. Well, the Democrats are facing it, and now they’re trying to figure out how to stop him from taking office if and when he wins the election. This is a really bad idea. But of course, the Democrat Party is the Party of Bad Ideas, and the Party of Nanny Fascism.

Biden's visit to Meyers' NBC 10th anniversary 'Late Night' had already made headlines when the president told a media member he believed there would be a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas within a week while getting ice cream with the host. The liberal-leaning host Meyers questioned the president about that but also pressed him on concerns about his age, with a majority of voters believing he's too old to run the country

Macy's on Tuesday said it plans to close roughly 150 underperforming stores over the next three years, the struggling retailer's latest effort to energize its business as it seeks to fend off a proposed takeover by activist investors. The department store chain said it plans to focus on expanding its luxury brands, Bloomingdale's and Bluemercury. Macy's will shutter 50 stores over the next year. Overall, the restructuring plan will leave Macy's with 350 outlets. The announcement of the store closures comes after Macy's last month rejected a $5.8 billion takeover offer from investing firm Arkhouse Management and its partner Brigade

If you had told the average person that an anarchist or an airman had set himself on fire to protest Israel’s campaign against Islamic terrorists, you would get two very different reactions. Unsurprisingly the media led with the data point most likely to produce a favorable reaction. And Aaron Bushnell cynically played the same game, wearing (the wrong) uniform to his Hamas suicide attempt rather than the Antifa red in which he had been previously photographed. The Washington Post gets around to admitting that Bushnell was an “anarchist”. [SNIP] But the Washington Post then misleadingly suggests he was raised in a Christian cult.
