Trump Spy Scandal

No fiction writer, not even the late great Tom Clancy himself, could have spun this: the saga continues of the Trump – Putin intrigue. You’d need a Leatherman and a microscope to part the intricate layers of the weave. And that’s really the goal, has been all along, of Vladimir Putin, a man who calls up the temptation to compare him to the Antichrist.

Of the two, Putin is certainly the more evil.

He has singlehandedly engineered a coup against the most powerful country in history. That coup is ongoing. It gets more bizarre, and equally frightening, almost by the hour.

Trump was groomed as a sap, a patsy, a puppet. He wasn’t always directly involved with Putin, who obviously regarded him as a man to be held in disdain. Putin avoided Trump during at least one visit. One interview had Trump bragging about being great friends with Putin, when evidence cast doubt that they had even met.

Trump always wanted to travel within the circles of power. He rubbed elbows with everyone. He was friends with the Clintons for a time.

Whatever happened, it wasn’t overnight. We know about him telling one interviewer that he was a Democrat, but if he ever ran for president, he’d switch to Republican affiliation because Fox News viewers were gullible. But there was something behind that statement. Something we’re beginning to see, and it’s worse than you can imagine.

Yet ultimately we have been led to believe, piece by piece, that he was always a fool. He dealt with the mafia despite a direct warning from FBI agents. He stiffed contractors and still bankrupted a casino, something that is considered a staggering feat. Was it ineptitude, or was he welshing and dumping and getting fat on cash he basically stole? An argument can be made for both.

As early as 2008, Putin may have been considering Trump as a longshot but possible asset. He was always ruining his credit. If ever there was a man who could be compromised by money, it was Donald Trump. No matter what he stole or laundered, he was always going on with another Trump project, and he wasn’t going to use his personal cash any more than he had to, and big endeavors need stacks of money.

They know what works, the Russians. And sometimes the answer to what it takes walks bold as brass right through the front door of the Russian embassy.

Spies

This was the case with a Navy top communication expert who had served on everything from the USS Forrestal (CV-59) to “Boomers”, Navy submarines tasked with deploying nuclear missiles during a full-blown war. He had no problem walking into the Soviet embassy despite constant surveillance by the FBI, which obviously missed it. The Soviets smuggled him back out after being convinced that what he offered was valuable. And he wasn’t, as a plus, motivated by shit like Lee Harvey Oswald, whose name had to come up in basic Soviet intelligence class. No, all John Walker ever wanted was cash. Money. In exchange he could provide them with anything they could possibly want. He became the most successful (as far as we know) spy during the Cold War. He gave encrypted documents, decryption keys, tactical strategic planning, schematics, and more. According to the Navy, men like Aldrich Ames couldn’t do what Walker did. Ames outed Soviet spies who were probably killed. Walker compromised the entire US Navy. And this did include, I firmly believe, information the Soviet advisors to North Vietnam passed on which allowed them to anticipate B-52 missions and get troops to safety in tunnel networks or else exfiltrated to safe areas. It allowed Soviets to, especially, pass on Navy aircraft sorties, which would account for SAM batteries having a dreadful attrition rate. We always wondered what the Soviet Union was giving Ho Chi Minh, and how we lost so many aircraft when in no estimation prior to McNamara’s bailing on Johnson, should the odds have ever been against us. He didn’t know about Walker.

Well, John Walker was deployed at sea in the war. There’s your answer.

In his career as a spy, Walker managed to cause damage that the US Navy admits it still cannot fully know.

Spies do what they do for different reasons. A man or woman in the right place and coldly asking for nothing but money is the perfect recruit. They never look back.

But when the conscientious want in, they can be too political, unstable and a loose cannon. So the potential spy recruit for the Soviet Union, and now Russia, is given “handlers” and “case officers”. Communication with them once the spy is properly trained becomes dangerous and therefore rare. Spy craft and strict discipline is essential in this life, and death awaits those who break character and engage in red flag behavior.

The spy inside Russia who was exfiltrated with his family while in Montenegro is in mortal danger. Because Trump has probably already given his location away (there’s no proof of this yet, but Russians have every ability to find him without Trump, but with him as president, the chances are very good that Putin will have him located and killed with all speed). Unforgettable are the photographs of Trump and Putin coming from closed doors, Trump obviously distressed and Putin ginning like the Cheshire Cat. Truth is, it’s a lock. Putin called the spy an extremely low level chump who was in the bottle. That means this has hurt Russia and he’s pissed and giving a very human knee jerk reaction, playing the whole thing off. And if he and and Trump met today, Putin wouldn’t be smiling.

Spies have been outed before by traitorous Americans. Scooter Libby got sent to the slammer for obstruction after he lied during testimony. He had interfered in the investigation of Valerie Plame being outed after her husband published compelling evidence that the Bush administration invaded Iraq under the false information (forged, no less) that Saddam Hussein was buying weapons-grade uranium. Plame’s husband, in so doing, earned the wrath of George W. Bush and his even more vengeful vice president. Outing Plame wasn’t harmless as some argued based on her five years of inactive operational status. It made her a target for anyone who had compromised themselves by unknowingly given her anything at all. A target for foreign powers that realized she’d been there. Scooter Libby was a willing puppet. In fact he should never have been involved. If Bush had just left Wilson’s report at distance and let the attention ebb, then only Robert Novak would be known as the one who wrote the article outing Plame and no one today would know Libby or even remember him.

But evidence points to Novak being given the information by someone acting on orders from the White House. That’s why Libby had to attempt to impede the following FBI investigation. The White House has therefore seen a president who ordered the compromisation of intelligence agencies and operatives.

Did Trump, or will Trump, finger the exfiltrated agent for Putin, who cannot hide his desire for revenge?

I will never suspect Trump of having a conscience when I find it difficult to believe he has minimal brain function, so why the glum look in those infamous photos?

Because he’s an owned man. No matter what he does to flex his power, in the end, he is still compromised, out of his league and being led around on a leash.

How Was Trump Compromised?

Money. As his credit with US banks dried up and he became more desperate, he negotiated loans from foreign banks, and when European banks also began to deny loans, he turned to Russia and China. Only a handful of people know what exactly went down, but it will all come out eventually. One thing we think is that during a trip to Russia, he was caught in some sort of embarrassing situation. We have rumors but little else. At one point British intelligence was said to have a video file of it. This became known as the “Steele Dossier”. It was never proven true.

Trump called a meeting with then-FBI Director James Comey and asked him to investigate and prove the tapes did not exist. Apparently Trump let the matter drop and ended up firing Comey. Remember this part; it’s coming up again.

These circumstances are just too bizarre not to have some basis in truth. Trump had told Comey in private “There were no prostitutes. I don’t need to pay for sex.” But something happened in Moscow in 2013 at the Ritz-Carlton, and whatever it was, it caused Trump a great deal of anguish that recordings of it may have been made. His concern, as stated to Comey, was that his wife Melania might believe the story. This is according to Comey; no one else was present. And we’ll see that James Comey’s word ultimately means very little.

There was a communication to Cohen from a Russian in late 2016, “stopped flow of tapes but not sure if there’s anything else.” This comes straight from the Mueller report, surrounded by redacted text we will never see.

That’s all we know.

Except we know Trump. We know that morality means nothing to him. If there was no pee tape from 2013 Moscow, it doesn’t necessarily mean that nothing happened.

In fact, I’ve been convinced since 2016 that the alleged videos had nothing to do with golden showers. I’m still convinced that a mere pee tape was never real, and it was in fact something far more extreme if it got Trump that upset. And if he refrained from having Comey investigate, and then fired Comey, it had to scare a man who thinks money and intimidation are legal tools to use in silencing teen rape victims.

To be frank, I think he was recorded having sex with a minor, something Russians don’t blink at, but Americans do. Putin already had Trump in an untenable position because of money by 2016 and could therefore hold any alleged sex tapes back to use in the future should Trump strain at the bit.

Whether there’s a recording or not doesn’t make much difference.

Mueller Investigation: A Total Farce

For two years, we pinned our hopes on Robert Mueller, only to have him betray our faith. So far, Trump has gotten away with all of his sins.

Mueller caved or was compromised from early on. He was never after Donald Trump, and his testimony was so evasive and vanilla that his nervousness could only be from two causes, and of the two, I believe that his family and he as well were going to be harmed in some way. The way governments do away with the trouble makers: “accidents”, “heart attacks”, “suicide”.

The Backlash

But it’s all coming back to haunt Trump. Pat Robertson, a fierce Trump supporter since day one despite his “locker room talk” being aired, Pat Robertson, who declared that to be against Trump is to be against God, has had enough. The plan to invite the Taliban leaders to Camp David, which was aborted, raised Pat’s hackles. He asked what Trump thought he was doing. “He thinks he can be buddies with (Kim Jong Un) and dictators and terrorists”, adding it was foolish and nothing good would come from it; and when you’ve lost Pat Robertson, you’re in a bad place as a republican.

But hold on a minute. I think Robertson has a bigger reason behind his obvious anger. The word “terrorist”. Remember that because it’s all a part of this.

Also, this latest information about a Russian spy is disturbing. Such info should never be made public.

But it’s not anything new. While the spy is probably going to wind up back in Mother Russia, where he will be tortured and killed, Trump is unashamed of sharing classified information on social media. When a launch in Iran failed, Trump took credit for destroying it and posted a high definition photo of it. When called out for it Trump said “We had a photo. I posted it which I have the absolute right to do.”

In so doing aspects of our intelligence gathering were revealed.

Trump is a less intelligent version of John Walker. Sells out for money. Those tasteless jokes about him being Putin’s bitch? They’re true.

But It’s Bigger Than That

Yes. Far bigger than I want to believe.

A judge has ruled that the FBI illegally withheld from the press certain information that links the Saudi Royals to the September 11 attacks. We suspected as much because the attacks were carried out mostly by Saudi Nationals. But we lacked proof. The FBI had that evidence all along. What it does is implicate President Bush in aiding the escape of Saudis who now appear to have been involved. And he then ordered the FBI to keep this information to themselves.

Trump has ties to the Saudis through business. This is more than circumstantial; Trump vetoed Congress to send arms to the Saudis and has fanned the flames of deep enmity he himself caused between the US and Iran. The weapons were for use in the war in Yemen, but because of religious differences, the two countries are truly bitter enemies. And neither country hides their hatred of Israel, who we are closely allied with. Which of course was the motive behind the two World Trade Center attacks. How it all ties together is too frightening to allow me to contemplate the scope and the numberof players involved. Spies being outed. Saudi Arabia being a major center of cutting edge hacking. Saudis getting away with putting an American journalist in a meat grinder. Russia being an influential member of OPEC+, which plans to cut production drastically very soon, Mueller’s facade of an investigation into Trump’s election, resulting in his bizarre testimony on Capitol Hill. Trump looking contrite beside a smug Putin, probably after being reminded who Trump really works for, the Department of Justice going after a top FBI official in an obviously open move to get revenge for Trump after he suffered through the Russia investigation. And let us not forget the last minute announcement in 2016 by Comey that the FBI was reopening the Clinton investigation. Since when does the FBI do that? He knew exactly what he was doing and what it was going to cause. He was so far out of order that I’ve always believed he was following orders. And I’ve never believed that he regretted it.

So. Either we’ve got a bunch of coincidences or we have foreign powers subverting, sabotaging and trying to bring this country to its knees.

I’ll allow for the occasional coincidence; they happen. That’s not what this is. Can you say “conspiracy”?
