These 3 Democrats Think "Sputnik Radio" Crushed Hillary's Campaign... But There's A Catch

Just when you thought the 'Russian collusion' narrative couldn't get any more surreal, 3 House democrats decide to write a letter to the FCC which can only be described as 'criminally stupid' and even that seems generous.

According to the letter, signed by Representatives Anna Eshoo (D-CA), Mike Doyle (D-PA) and Frank Pallone (D-N.J), Sputnik Radio, "a radio network funded by the Russian government, was used as part of the Kremlin's effort to influence the 2016 presidential election." As such, these 3 democrats demand that the FCC launch an investigation into Sputnik Radio.

And while it may only seem 'marginally stupid' to suggest that propaganda from a Russian-operated radio station might outweigh the $1.2 billion that Hillary spent on her campaign and/or all of the propaganda spewed by the mainstream media, the argument goes full "criminally stupid" when you realize that Sputnik Radio didn't even start broadcasting in the U.S. until June 2017 (which is about 8 months AFTER the 2016 presidential election...for anyone who may have missed the nuance there).

Russian Collusion? New Emails Reveal Hillary Clinton Invited Putin To "Pay For Play" Event

In newly released emails which the mainstream media is willfully ignoring, Hillary Clinton invited Russian president Vladimir Putin to a Clinton Foundation event. The Russian collusion between Hillary Clinton is becoming very apparent.



Hillary Clinton likes to talk a tough game about Russian President Vladimir Putin. And she likes to put him on the list of those at fault for her loss in the election last November to Donald Trump. But that didn’t stop her from inviting him and other top Russian officials to a Clinton Foundation gala right after she became Secretary of State.

Clinton Foundation director of foreign policy Amitabh Desai sent dozens of invitations to world leaders including then-Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, and Former President of the Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev, emails recently obtained by Judicial Watch revealed.

While Democrats blast any Republican who has the nerve to even look Russia’s direction, Hillary and her minions in the Clinton Foundation were begging the Russians to come to an event put on by the “pay for play” organization.

Hillary offered political favors in exchange for money filtered through the Clinton Foundation.

On March 13, 2009, Desai emailed the list of invitations to Assistant Secretary of State Andrew Shapiro, who then forwarded the email to top Clinton aide, Jake Sullivan. This happened at approximately the same time that the newly appointed Clinton tried to “reset” U.S. relations with Russia. Yet, Donald Trump has been blasted for trying to do the same thing. The propaganda in the media is becoming clear as they continue to brush this story under the rug too.

Hillary Clinton repeatedly attacked Putin during her 2016 presidential campaign and often tried to link president Donald Trump to the Russian leader. Clinton and her staff, with help from Barack Obama and the media also allegedly concocted the “Russian hacking” narrative within 24-hours of her election defeat, as documented in the Clinton campaign tell-all book, Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton’s Doomed Campaign:

That strategy had been set within twenty-four hours of her concession speech. Mook and Podesta assembled her communications team at the Brooklyn headquarters to engineer the case that the election wasn’t entirely on the up-and-up.



For a couple of hours, with Shake Shack containers littering the room, they went over the script they would pitch to the press and the public. Already, Russian hacking was the centerpiece of the argument.

Clinton’s public display of contempt for Putin does not match her track record of how she interacted with the Russian leader in the past as controversy swirled following a uranium deal she approved while at the State Department. The deal was quickly followed by a massive donation to her foundation, proving the “pay for play” policy she herself used to become wealthy.


“One year after inviting Putin to the Clinton Foundation event, she approved the sale of 20% of America’s uranium capacity to Russia,” Conservative Review noted.


“Shortly thereafter, donors connected to the company that was sold to Russia contributed $145 million in donations to the Clinton Foundation.”

These newly released emails simply prove what most already knew – Hillary Clinton’s collusion with Russia is far deeper than Donald Trump’s.

The U.S. Military Now Has a Permanent Base in Israel
But don't forget about the massive arms caches
img1191-970x350.jpg

U.S. AN/TPY-2 radar

Israel14
On Sept. 18, 2017, the United States established its first permanent manned military base in Israel at Mashabim Air Base in the Negev Desert.

Brig. Gen. Tzvika Haimovich, the head of the Israeli Air Force’s Aerial Defense Command, hailed the event as “nothing short of historic,” adding that it demonstrates the “years-old alliance between the United States and the state of Israel” and sends a “message to the region and our surroundings that our partnership with our friend the United States is important.”

The U.S. military, however, contradicted Haimovich by downplaying the base’s significance, insisting it is merely a “facility” at Mashabim featuring sleeping quarters and spaces for dining and recreation serving around 40 U.S. soldiers – not a full-fledged base.

Calling the “base” a “facility,” however, is euphemism. U.S. troops have been in the Negev since 2009 operating an X-Band radar. The likely specific radar is a high-resolution, Raytheon-built AN/TPY-2 with a range of 1,000 kilometers supporting Israel’s Patriot air-defense launchers. The AN/TPY-2 is a phased array radar which can detect and track “all classes of ballistic missiles” in their boost and terminal phases, according to the U.S. Missile Defense Agency.


That troop presence is now permanent and “will improve our abilities significantly,” Haimovich said. “It won’t get us to 100 percent, but it will get us much closer to achieving important things during war.”

While the base will help keep Iran in check, it’s easy to see why the U.S. military isn’t eager to advertise the fact that its troops are working closely with Israeli ones, as the U.S. government maintains an official position of neutrality in negotiations involving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Nevertheless, the base is just another development in the extensive, half-century relationship between America and Israel, on top of the six — at least — U.S. arms depots which have been there since the 1990s. Known as the War Reserve Stockpile Ammunition-Israel, or WRSA-I, these depots are U.S.-controlled, and the Israelis need American authorization to use any of these weapons on their own soil if need be.

Foreign reports cited by Al-Monitor estimated that, “these depots are chock-full of ammunition, smart bombs, missiles, an assortment of military vehicles and a military hospital with 500 beds.”

Israel has long sought to win swift and decisive victories over their — often much larger — adversaries during wartime, exemplified by the historic victory over Egypt and Syria in the 1967 Six-Day War. Protracted and drawn-out battles of attrition could wear down the IDF’s technological edge and inflict unacceptable losses on Israeli troops.

During the first week of the Yom Kippur War in October 1973, both Israel and the Iraq-Syria-led Arab coalition found they needed replenishment from their superpower allies. On the Israeli side, this famously resulted in the Nickel Grass operation in which the United States rushed more than 100 F-4 Phantom II jet fighters – that weren’t even fully repainted – to Israel along with thousands of tons of ammunition, tanks and artillery.

During the 2006 war with Hezbollah, the United States authorized Israel to use munitions from the WRSA-I, as it later did during the Protective Edge operation against Hamas in the Gaza Strip in the summer of 2014. The same year, Washington enormously increased the number of weapons, hitherto valued at $200 million, to a whopping $1.8 billion.

American officials have often pointed out Israel’s strategic value to the United States in the wider Middle East. Since WRSA-I weapons are stored primarily for American use, Israel constitutes a major hub for American military action across the region if needed. However, the WRSA-I could likewise serve the Israeli military in a major, potential future war — one which strains its own logistical backbone.

When he was a senator, former U.S. Vice Pres. Joe Biden told the Israeli press that he views Israel “as the single greatest strength that America has in the Middle East,” adding that he invariably tells his friends to imagine how many warships or troops Americans would need were it not for their Israeli allies.

Biden, in a sense, echoed Alexander Haig, the U.S. secretary of state in the Reagan administration, who once described Israel as “the largest American aircraft carrier in the world that cannot be sunk.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warmly welcomed the visit of an actual American aircraft carrier, the USS George H.W. Bush, when she docked in the Israeli port city of Haifa in July 2017, describing the enormous warship as “a floating island of America. It is a symbol of freedom and strength and victory.”

Israeli Intelligence Minister Israel Katz similarly described the ship’s arrival as “a timely show of American power projection and deterrence capability.”

Two years ago the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer USS Porter participated in a joint exercise with the Israeli Navy and docked at Haifa. U.S. Ambassador Dan Shapiro visited the vessel and said the deployment was intended to “help defend Israel from the threat of ballistic missiles from Iran, Syria and Lebanon” adding that her presence reflected “the United States’ ongoing commitment to Israel’s security.”

Netanyahu and Haig’s statements about Israel as an American aircraft carrier are metaphorical. Israel is more properly an American arms depot – and now, a permanent air defense base.

Nythän tulee kiinnostava kirja markkinoille: The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump.

In THE DANGEROUS CASE OF DONALD TRUMP, twenty-seven psychiatrists, psychologists, and other mental health experts argue that, in Mr. Trump’s case, their moral and civic “duty to warn” America supersedes professional neutrality. They then explore Trump’s symptoms and potentially relevant diagnoses to find a complex, if also dangerously mad, man.

Clintonin dynastian ja Trumpin oligarkian maanjaosta riittäisi juttua, mutta ehkä Trump-ketjussa. Maassa on niin paljon mielenkintoisia juttuja.

Täytyy kyllä nauraa noille Kremlin sometrollien touhuille. Avasivat Facebook-ryhmän United Muslims of America. No, eihän se ollut muslimien yhdistys eikä edes amerikkalainen vaan taattua Olgino-kamaa, josta lähtivät leviämään muiden muassa meemit, kuten Hillary Clinton myönsi USA:n perustaneen al-Qaidan ja että John McCain oli ISIS-järjestön todellinen perustaja, Osama bin Laden oli "CIA:n edustaja" ja niin edelleen.

Muutamissa epävarmoissa lähteissä epäiltiin olevan jopa 3 ampujaa, muutama kuollut, kymmeniä loukkaantunut. Some puskee niin paljon updateja että ei pysy perässä.
 
+20 kuollutta yli 100 haavoittunutta. Ampuja tapettu, kumppani etsinnässä. Aasialainen nainen. Ampuja ampuin 32 kerroksesta Mandalay bay hotellista
 
Tyyppi oli valkoinen 64-vuotias anti-Trump sankari kuten oli se Washingtonin senaattorien ampuja. Aika kärjistynyttä menoa Amerikassa....
 
jolla ei pitänyt olla mitään mielenterveysongelmaa.

Ehkä veli ei tällä kertaa ollut ihan kartalla, mutta kukapa on veljensä vartija.

Isoon kansaan sopii todellisia valopäitä jakaa saakka. Helvetinmoinen verilöyly kertakaikkiaan. Käsittämätöntä ja mittaluokka ihan melkoinen.

Amerikoissa on pidetty luupin alla näitä valkoistenkin erilaisia ryhmittymiä ja yksinäisiä susia. Wacon tapahtumia on jossain yhteydessä pidetty jonkinlaisena vedenjakajana, pitkä jatkumo, joka lopulta kulminoitui Timothy McVeithin tekoihin.

Kaksoistornien vajoaminen itseasiassa sai aikaan erilaisten järjestelyjen kymen, joiden turvin ns. -valkoisen ääriväen- temppuilu saatiin aisoihin.
 
Ampujan tuliasema paikannettiin vartissa. Mielestäni varsin kelpo suoritus tuossa sekasorrossa. 37 kerros. En jaksa uskoa, että SWAT käytti hissejä. Vaatii kovaa kuntoa rykäistä noinkin ylös täydessä varustuksessa.
