Trump’s Foreign Policy: Bending Over for Dictators
Treasonous History of Mitch McConnell #TRE45ON
One story or headline can’t explain ongoing events. Here’s my simpleton attempt to piece together why the Party of Patriotism and their members in the Republican Controlled House and Senate would forsake their country for a dictator at home and abroad - Russia. Let’s start with McConnell #RepublicansForRussia
TL;DR Start here and skip to Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper’s quote.
GOP campaigns took $7.35 million from oligarch linked to Russia
Republicans are no strangers to Oligarchs and how they work! America has their own; Koch’s, Mercer’s, DeVos’...
During the 2015-2016 election season, Ukrainian-born billionaire Leonid “Len” Blavatnik contributed $6.35 million to leading Republican candidates and incumbent senators.
Mitch McConnell was the top recipient of Blavatnik’s donations, collecting $2.5 million for his GOP Senate Leadership Fund under the names of two of Blavatnik’s holding companies, Access Industries and AI Altep Holdings, according to Federal Election Commission documents and OpenSecrets.org.
McConnell stopped Obama from calling out Russians
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell stopped the Obama administration from warning the public about possible Russian interference in the 2016 campaign by refusing to sign on to a bipartisan statement of condemnation., Joe Biden
"House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said they would not support a bipartisan statement that might hurt their nominee for president,", James Clapper
Obama orders review of Russian election-related hacking
Obama was forced to order the Intelligence Agencies to investigate because Republicans Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan won’t act.
3 Days Later, Embarrassed McConnell FORCED to launch his own probe
McConnell using Russian Whataboutism to blame Obama.
“The Obama administration for eight years attempted to reset relations with Russia, and sat back while Russia expanded its sphere of influence and intervened in Crimea, Eastern Ukraine, Syria, and attempted to bully Baltic countries. It defies belief that somehow Republicans in the Senate are reluctant to either review Russian tactics or ignore them”, McConnell
McConnell rejects calls for a Special Prosecutor after Trump Fires James Comey
"Today we'll no doubt hear calls for a new investigation, which could only serve to impede the current work being done," McConnell
The biggest exception to Republicans’ defense of the current investigatory trajectory came from Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), who testily repeated the need for a “special committee” when asked about Comey. Asked in an interview why no new Republicans were joining him, McCain replied: “I neither know nor care.”
McConnell Kills Bill to Protect Robert Mueller
"I'm the one who decides what [legislation] we take to the floor. That’s my responsibility as majority leader. We'll not be having this on the floor of the Senate," McConnell said during a Fox News interview on Tuesday.
Democrats seeking $300 million for FBI to fight foreign election interference in 2018
The letter was sent to McConnell and Paul Ryan.

#TreasonSummit ~ Doesn’t slam or mention Trump
And there’s this!
Reporter: “Did you want President* Trump to win the election & did you direct any of your officials to help him do that?"
Putin: ”Yes I did. Yes I did, because he talked about bringing the US-Russia relationship back to normal.“
Is McConnell deaf and blind?
"As I've said repeatedly, the Russians are not our friends and I entirely agree with the assessment of our intelligence community.", Mitch McConnell
Trump Invites Putin to the White House before the 2018 Midterms #Reek #TreasonSummit2
“The notion that President Trump would invite a tyrant to Washington is beyond belief," Nancy Pelosi
Chicken Shit McConnell and Ryan use their spokes people!
“There is no invitation from Congress,” a spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) told The Hill this week.
"The only one talking about inviting Putin to address Congress is Nancy Pelosi," a spokeswoman for Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.)
Paul Ryan, Traitor to the very end
Clapper: Ryan and McConnell didn't care about election interference as long as Trump won
"I was disappointed but not surprised. It seemed they had decided by then that they didn't care who their nominee was, how he got elected or what effects having a foreign power influence our election would have on the nation, as long as they won,” James Clapper

MBS’ Saudi assassins sawed up US journalist Jamal Khashoggi while he was still ALIVE
Saudi Arabia is suspected of having groomed a Saudi employee at Twitter to help the country's leadership by spying on the accounts of dissidents, according to a new report.
Saud al-Qahtani, a top adviser to the Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was “Saudi Arabia’s Steve Bannon” #CyberPolitics #InfoWarfare
The New York Times reported Saturday that Western officials told Twitter in 2015 that one of their employees, Ali Alzabarah, was being groomed to spy on the accounts.
“Mr. Alzabarah had joined Twitter in 2013 and had risen through the ranks to an engineering position that gave him access to the personal information and account activity of Twitter’s users, including phone numbers and I.P. addresses, unique identifiers for devices connected to the internet.”
Twitter was reportedly unable to find evidence that the employee gave company data to Saudi Arabia, but fired him in December 2015.
The Times reported that the alleged efforts appeared to be part of a larger push by the Saudi royal family to use hundreds of people to flood social media with pro-Saudi messaging and smother the voices of dissenters.
Saudi Arabia has its own troll farm #CyberWarfare
Saudi operatives have been reportedly mobilized to harass dissenters on Twitter since the 2010 Arab Spring, according to multiple American and Saudi officials who spoke to the Times.
Saud al-Qahtani, a top adviser to the crown prince who was fired on Friday after the kingdom acknowledged Khashoggi's death, was the strategist behind the operation, according to the Times, citing U.S. and Saudi officials.
Twitter has reportedly struggled to combat the trolls on its platform because they are actual people hired by the Saudi government rather than bots, which are more detectable.
The Times reports that specialists in the matter found the job listings through ads on Twitter itself saying that an employer sought young men willing to tweet for about 10,000 Saudi riyals a month, equivalent to about $3,000.
From the NYTimes
The specialists heard directors speak often of Mr. Qahtani. Labeled by activists and writers as the “troll master,” “Saudi Arabia’s Steve Bannon” and “lord of the flies” — for the bots and online attackers sometimes called “flies” by their victims — Mr. Qahtani had gained influence since the young crown prince consolidated power.
He ran media operations inside the royal court, which involved directing the country’s local media, arranging interviews for foreign journalists with the crown prince, and using his Twitter following of 1.35 million to marshal the kingdom’s online defenders against enemies including Qatar, Iran and Canada, as well as dissident Saudi voices like Mr. Khashoggi’s.
For a while, he tweeted using the hashtag #The_Black_List, calling on his followers to suggest perceived enemies of the kingdom.
Trump sounded “grudgingly convinced” when he was shown the findings of Putin’s interference on Jan. 6 of last year — just two weeks before his inauguration, according to The New York Times, which cited multiple people who attended the briefing.
Trump was shown the evidence on Jan. 6, 2017. Yet he persists to SWALLOW Putin’s lies. #Reek
Before his inauguration, then-president-elect Donald Trump was told that Russian President Vladimir Putin “personally ordered complex cyberattacks to sway the 2016 American election," The New York Times reported on Wednesday
The meeting took place at Trump Tower and the then-president-elect was shown evidence that included texts and emails from Russian military officers, according to the Times.
“There was also information gathered from a top-secret source close to Putin, which outlined the Kremlin’s plan to sway the 2016 election, the report said.”
So why doesn’t Trump hold Putin RESPONSIBLE?
"Just like I consider myself to be responsible for things that happen in this country. So certainly as the leader of a country you would have to hold him responsible, yes," Trump said.
Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, must order all 17 Intelligence Agencies to find the Dirt Putin has on Trump. #NationalSecurity #TrumpCompromised
