The Intercept co-founding editor Glenn Greenwald argued that the U.S. intelligence community’s “interference” in the 2020 presidential election is far worse than the “mischief” undertaken by the government of Russia.

Intelligence leak is unaccompanied by any evidence they want the weakest candidate: Bernie Sanders to go up against Trump.

He said, "This is domestic intelligence interference in our election."

"There is this hysteria embedded in our political culture... that is in full blown paranoia about Moscow... and voters are completely indifferent to it, because the voters of Nevada picked the candidate (Sanders) that was anointed as Putin's favorite, ended up winning easily."

Laughable: MSNBC "Chris Mathews equating it with the Russians overrunning France."

Intelligence community is a power within a power, and they treat the country like any other foreign occupation that runs counter to the entitites it represents, which is not the broader citizens of the USA.

Buttigieg is the most obvious Intel Candidate this election.

Bernie has openly endorsed dissolving NATO and creating a new alliance with Russia to fight against "extremism".

This makes him clearly and unambiguously a Putin's whore.

Trump and Sanders both have semi-isolationist foreign policies. Putin wins either way, but in Sanders V Trump. Putin is for Trump, for if you want a gutted Sate dept.,corrupted intelligence agencies, general chaos, and dysfunction as well as total incompetence (not to mention pee pee tapes), Trumps the man.

Wonder why no one is talking about Chinese influence. The Chinese would especially like to see Trump go, and would love a man like Bloomberg who actually said the following about the Chinese dictator when talking about pollution:

Bloomberg: China is doing a lot. Yes, they’re still building a lot of coal-fired power plants.

Hoover: And they’re still burning coal.

Bloomberg: Yes, they are, but they’re now moving plants away from the cities. The Communist Party wants to stay in power in China, and they listen to the public. When the public says I can’t breathe the air, Xi Jinping is not a dictator; he has to satisfy his constituents or he’s not going to survive.

Hoover: He’s not a dictator?

Bloomberg: No, he has a constituency to answer to.

Because Chinese control was the norm until 2017.

Media, Pols, Academia: You can't fight the inevitable rise of China! So yes, my next book is "China is better, more innovative, and smarter than America." Strangely, the Chinese have brought 150,000 copies, propelling me to the top of the NYT Best Seller list.

The Ruskies are poor; it's the Chinese that had the money to distribute. The Chinese Subversion of the Political AND Media class is the story of the Century so far.

A lot of the Anger at Trump is because he closed many doors to Chinese subversion money

If you still believe this rubbish, you haven’t been paying attention. Try to catch up.

Really?

Name the last President who allowed US Forces to annihilate 200 Russians.

So you think Trump gave the order to kill the Russian mercenaries who were attacking US and its allies position? It doesn't (and shouldn't) work that way. Any service people under attack, particularly in a war zone have the right to defend themselves. I doubt it got much past the regional commander, if that far. The Ruskies took it up the ass, out gunned and outclassed

You're so full of shit, your comment has a bad smell


This was flagged, I approved but please restate this to "Your idea is full of shit" or similar so it's not personal. Thanks @WillPowers.

What part is rubbish? OK, the pee pee tape was an attempt at humor which in this group cant be directed about Trump. But other than that it seems clear to any casual observer what is going on. As to Trump being a semi-isolationist I don't say that as a negative. For whatever reason, he is wary of foreign entanglements.
