You’d think if Russians were controlling US politicians we’d see them going around to Russian orthodox churches regularly but they don’t. Weird though they seem to consistently show up at synagogues. Trump has already commemorated the Holocaust multiple times
Who the media says controls US politicians : Russia
Who actually does : Israel and Saudi Arabia
Oh sure. It’s all the Jooooooooo’s fault. I see.

I don’t think the media is claiming Russia controls all politicians, just Trump and his Trumpettes.

For the 6 millionth time Aragorn, not everything I say is a subtle anti semitic slur
You can keep this thread alive long after Trump does not resign and you have to leave the site (which I will not be happy about but a bet is a bet)
I’m happy to keep up my end of the bargain. But I’m not going to be the one leaving.

You know what, at least those old school antisemites hated but also physically dreaded the Jews.
For example, when future czar Nicholas II of Russia visited the United Kingdom to hang out with his cousin, the future King George V he observed George casually conversing with a Jewish trader. Nicholas was so shocked by this that he lost the ability to speak and locked himself in a cupboard.
After that he immediately penned a shrill, hysterical letter to Queen Victoria complaining about th “depravity” of her grandson and heir.
On a side note, if one reads this by no means exhaustive Wikipedia article one may see many similar themes popping up in the alt-right Twittersphere and even on this forum, so you kind of see where they originated.

Does anyone actually believe Israel isn’t leaning on US politicians?
Is Israel really an ally or only in name? This guy made 2000 different threats across the US and Israel is protecting him from extradition
I understand this will be a closed hearing.

From Comey’s testimony Wednesday:
HIRONO: So in the investigations that you’re currently doing on the Russian interference and the Trump team’s relationship, are you coordinating with any U.S. attorney’s office in these investigations?
COMEY: Yes, well – two sets of prosecutors, the Main Justice the National Security Division and the Eastern District of Virginia U.S. Attorney’s Office.
As the Kremlin media is foaming at the mouth at the election result in France in which their darling Maine Le Pen was comprehensively beaten by the “establishment” candidate that is Emmanuel Macron, let’s just compare some of the more rabid statements coming out from Russian media outlets.
Perceptive readers will notice that by changing names and some wording you’d get familiar utterances and phrases from the 2016 US elections.
“Emmanuel Macron is a closeted/secret gay who pathologically hates France and the French people” (Komsomolskaya Pravda)
“Macron is a narcissistic psychopath who’s trying to emulate the dictatorship oh his mentor Obama” (Rossiya 1 TV station)
“Macron is being financed the globalist elites and international bankers” (KP)
“Macron is meekly doing whatever his butch mummy wife tells him” (Rossiya 1)
“The French elections have been rigged and we’ve got the definite proof in the high number of abstained voters”
“Paris is a crime infested hellhole where scores of gay black men (?) openly sell heroin and coke in the streets” (KP)
And of course, Wikileaks:
Doesn’t this sound eerily familiar? Especially since the same pro-Trump alt-right shills have been pushing the MacronLeaks non-story.

The MacronLeaks docs were dumped on Friday evening, hours before a mandatory, country-wide ban on campaigning took effect. France bans candidates and the media from speaking publicly about the election at midnight the Friday before the election. Macron was only able to release a statement about the leaks at 11:56pm Friday.
Anyone doubting Russia’s efforts or that Wikileaks is nothing more than a Kremlin mouthpiece is fooling themselves.

Prove wikileaks leaked information is fake because that’s all that matters ultimately - the authenticity of their information
Did Israel admit it’s spying on the US?
No, not at all. When dealing with classified information it can be damaging regardless of whether it is truth, half-truth, or completely false. While you may be able to bury your head in the sand and pretend nothing is there, it’s pretty easy for everybody else to see.
