Blame everything on something that can neither be proved nor disproved. You'd actually have to get the Kremlin (aka: Evil Empire/Arch Enemy) to weigh in on this and either confirm it or deny it. The "Little Secret" is safe. Checkmate. "Just trust me". See how that works?

They did it with COVID. They do it with "raaaaaaaaaaacism". They do it with "homo-/transphobia:.

They'll do it with a "cyberattack" or with a "solar flare" when they need to throw everything they have in a failing attempt to derail the 2024 election.

Play nice with Russia until Trump becomes the Republican Nominee then the left makes Russia the Boogeyman.


quote:

Even as Putin continued his occupation of Georgia — having annexed about a fifth of that former Soviet territory in 2008 — President Obama kicked off the Reset by shelving Bush’s plans for missile-defense installations in Eastern Europe. Further courting the Russian dictator, Obama in 2010 revived the U.S.–Russia Civilian Nuclear Cooperation Agreement (Bush 43-era foolishness that had been scrapped after Putin invaded Georgia). The president insisted that, somehow, the pact advanced U.S. national security.


quote:

Obama and Clinton decided that one of these collaborative areas should be technology. Under the secretary’s guidance as point person of the Obama administration’s “U.S.–Russia Bilateral Presidential Commission,” the State Department teamed up with Russia’s Foreign Ministry to help erect Moscow’s version of Silicon Valley — Skolkovo. It’s unlikely Putin could believe his good fortune: The project was like an espionage operation in broad daylight, openly enhancing Russia’s military and cyber capabilities.

It's only July of 2023 and the 2024 election has already been derailed.

There used to be events that could unite Americans under one banner. We could find common ground, for example, when we perceived threat or attack (9/11). So our enemy has never successfully attacked us on our own soil, unless it was allowed to happen in order to stir up patriotic fervor and catalyze the engines of the great MIC war machine.

Americans wouldn't even unite to stand against a ground invasion at this point. A small percentage would go to fight, a small percentage would go to actively help the invaders, and the overwhelming majority would stay at home watching MSNBC and blaming everything on Trump.

That's just the cold, hard reality we must face. America was lost to death by 100,000 cuts. We're trying to hold onto what little is left of how our Republic was originally masterfully designed, but inevitably the Constitution itself will be somehow deemed unconstitutional and all will fall into darkness.

Aliens could come down from space and we still wouldn't be united. I'm afraid that ship has long sailed after 9/11
