Lying Is Their Profession.

Yep, and we all hope that FBI will now go after REAL criminals. 

There Is Very Little Intelligence In House Intelligence Committee.

Especially when we are talking about its chair Adam Schiff who in normal country would have been removed and prosecuted for his role in Russiagate. I know, I know, he is still hard at work trying to finish his "investigation" into Russia "subverting" US democracy. 

Russia is “very likely” to invade Ukraine and might only be deterred by “enormous sanctions”, the chair of the US House intelligence committee said on Sunday. Adam Schiff also said an invasion could backfire on Moscow, by drawing more countries into the NATO military alliance. “I also think that a powerful deterrent is the understanding that if they do invade, it is going to bring NATO closer to Russia, not push it farther away,” he said.

It is obvious by now that US politicking is conducted only in PR space and for the "benefit" of the gullible public, especially when dealing with foreign relations, but in case of Adam Schiff there is no denial that his only claim to anything related to "intelligence" is his persecution of some FBI guy, or, following famous layman's analogy--he understands music because his father was a piano mover. In other words, apart from useless degree in political "science" and him, more useful, being a lawyer, Adam Schiff wouldn't know the difference between, as I often say, LGBT and BTG. So, at this stage he is nothing more than a purveyor of the rumors and a peddler of utter strategic and operational BS for the benefit of a larger agenda rooted in partizan politics in D.C. and which has no relation to the actual national interest of the United States nor the majority of the Americans. 

In other words, apart from being a person of a lowest moral character, a fanatical neocon, he is also a pathological liar, which factors greatly in his "character". While Schiff's traits are the dominant traits of America's elites as a whole and I am on record that many of those people are sociopaths and some are outright psychopaths. So, this creature now "expects" Russia "invading" Ukraine. Under the "very likely" (rings the bell?) term it means that, if to assume that he, indeed, conveys some rumors percolating inside the US "intelligence community",  I have to admit that there is very little intelligence in this community. Judging by the "stellar" results of actions of this "community" ranging from Iraq, to Afghanistan to Syria, among many other places, one has to start questioning not just competence, of which is very little there, but sanity of people who continue to destroy the country. Adam Schiff is an Exhibit A of a complete degeneration in human and professional terms of the American political class.

But in the end, the United States is so desperate to both unload 404 on Russia and use any pretext to unleash "sanction of death", which for Russia will be nothing more than temporary inconvenience at the worst, that any means are used to make Russia invade the territory Russia has no use for nor desire to take on her balance. At least not now, or in a foreseeable future. In related news:

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is hoping to turn a page in relations with Moscow, and expects to meet with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin by the end of the month, according to a report from Berlin's top tabloid. On Monday, Bild claimed that Scholz sees relations with Moscow as a top-tier foreign affairs priority in spite of calls from some members of his governing coalition for a more confrontational approach to Russia. The newspaper said that the 63-year-old is aiming for a "qualified fresh start." However, Berlin has officially yet to confirm any top-level meeting of this type, with the German Embassy in Moscow also unable to verify the report. What is known, however, is that the chancellor’s foreign policy adviser will meet his Russian and French counterparts this week. Scholz’s reported attempts at a new détente with Moscow may prove unpopular with his coalition partners, particularly the Green party, which is strongly pro-US/NATO and hostile to Russia. Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock and Economy Minister Robert Habeck are known to want Berlin to adopt a more hardline anti-Russian stance.

My personal opinion is that the new Germany's government is nonfunctional from the outset and some people in it are downright insane and utterly incompetent, but that is the trend across the whole combined West and it is very pronounced. 

P.S. I am currently sick as a dog, initial thought was that it is Covid, but my daughter tested negative twice. I think it is a very nasty cold and today I felt slightly better to type this post. 

Are Russians That Good Or...

You have US political class to be that dumb? I think it is the latter.  Of course, Adam Schiff is an idiot (he even looks like one) but to consider the fact that for almost 4 years all those American "intellectuals" (especially from MSM) bought this BS, oh boy. This is what happens when one mixes degree in good Scotch with degree in actual sciences. Boy... 

And make no mistake, be it Lou Dobbs or whoever this "investigative" journo are--they are not the sharpest knives, so to speak--when even they begin to suspect something. It must be so fvcked up that one is forced to see this: 

UPDATE: my-my-my. Tucker, they are all sociopaths, some ARE psychopaths and they run this country. They all lie--this is the only thing they can do, literally. Look at their faces--masks. And yes, GOP wanted this Russiagate too, because the United States is a single party system. 

Russian Army Invades Italy.

And makes a dash to Bergamo. No, really, Russian contingent of Radiation, Chemical and Biological Defense Forces (RHBZ) deploys to one of the hardest hit regions of Italy, around the city of Bergamo.   

Russian Vesti (Russia 1) reporters are also at hand to document this act of aggression. 

Russia also registered today first two deaths from Covid-19: 73 and 81 year old patients, both with a host of chronic illnesses, which, of course, is a very small consolation for their relatives. But it is what it is, we all are at risk one way or another. 

Today, also, in the act of unheard of militancy, Russian insidiousness and lack of democracy, Russians conducted another anti-American provocation and operation of influence and, through Russia's Ambassador to the United States  Anatoly Antonov offered (if needed) aid to the United States in containing Covid-19 pandemic (in Russian). I think US Intelligence Community headed by the US Congress Select Committee On Intelligence  must immediately commence a thorough investigation of this atrocious Russian interference with American democracy. Declarations such as this:

«Простые американцы должны знать – Россия при необходимости будет готова помочь и США, как не раз предлагала содействие в тушении пожаров в Калифорнии»

Translation: "Simple Americans must know--if necessary, Russia will be ready to help the United States, the same as Russia, not for once, offered help in extinguishing fires in California". 

Or this barely veiled threat to American national security when stating that Russian Covid-19 test kits are top notch and already have proven themselves in China, Iran and, now, Italy, are absolutely inadmissible. This is atrocious, where are Malcolm Nance or Adam Schiff, or specialist in Russian genetics and bodily fluids Mr. Clapper, when you need them? Where is everybody?  Who can stop this Russian aggression? But never mind, it doesn't really matter because there are always sanctions the United States can impose on Russia for conducting herself in such an aggressive, democracy-threatening manner. So, as you can see, Russian invasion is in progress and NATO does nothing. What's next, Russians sending toys and food for women and children? Ah, wait--Syria, forgot completely. While combined West tries to support peaceful humanitarian jihadists and other democratic head-choppers, Russians assault Syrian civilian population with doctors, food, clothing, clean water and other typically Russian tools of aggression and subversion.  Look at that, Russian agents are already deep in Italy. So, ladies and gentlemen, the Russians Are Coming! Run for your life!

At Least This Is Not A Lie.

It finally happened and, actually, I agree with this "conclusion", sort of. In yet another act of an American insanity circus known as US politics, the culprit and Putin's "real" agent finally had his cover blown, LOL.  

Adam Schiff is the one helping Vladimir Putin destabilize US democracy

I have to agree. The author continues:

"The President's misconduct cannot be decided at the ballot box, for we cannot be assured that the vote will be fairly won," Schiff thundered this week, arguing for President Donald Trump's removal. That comment stopped me in my tracks (and rankled many in the Senate GOP conference) because the conclusion of the US intelligence community was that Russia's interference in the 2016 election was designed "to undermine public faith in the US democratic process," an assessment backed up by the Senate Intelligence Committee.What could possibly be more fulfilling of Putin's desire to sow discord and mistrust than for a senior member of Congress to stand in the well of the Senate and declare the 2020 election is already illegitimate before a single ballot has been cast? Putin himself couldn't have scripted a better finale for his operation.

But this is not what is significant in this piece--children in kindergartens in normal countries are taught how not to behave using examples of Russiagate and Ukrainegate. No, the significance is in the fact that this is CNN. Yes, this cabal of low level, low IQ "analysts" who are in the business of goebbelsonian propaganda and (false) narrative-mongering. But, however note-worthy this fact is, nothing can be undone or saved anymore in the world of newspeak and thought-crime, where everything loses any meaning and can become whatever one wants it to be. Yet, it has to be stated that pointing to Adam Schiff (and what he represents) as a real danger to whatever is left of the American Republic and alleged "democracy" is worth paying attention to, since, even if by accident and wrong reasons, the definition is correct. CNN published at least some truth--that is big news. 

Whistle While You Work...

In the CIA or in the White House. Evidently, if to believe media frenzy, the name of the so called "whistle blower" against Trump is 33 years old Eric Ciaramella, whose profile nails him directly as a snitch to the Brennan's cabal of putchists who continue to rape Constitution and eradicate the last remnants of the Republic, turning it into the Third World shithole mafia state.   

Eric Ciaramella, 33, is a Ukraine expert and his background matches the biographical details reported by The New York Times and other media outlets about the whistleblower. According to The Times, the whistleblower is a CIA officer who was detailed to work at the White House before returning to the CIA. The Times wrote, “His complaint suggested he was an analyst by training and made clear he was steeped in details of American foreign policy toward Europe, demonstrating a sophisticated understanding of Ukrainian politics and at least some knowledge of the law.”

OK, that clarifies it somewhat but this is not what is truly interesting about this CIA "analyst" who, at this moment still may or may not be a blowjo...pardon me, whistle-blower for Adan Schiff and his collection of treasonous operatives. No. The thing which catches one's attention who have at least some serious military or intelligence background is this:

Ciaramella grew up in Prospect, Connecticut, as one of three children. He spent time attending Woodland Regional High School in Beacon Falls, Connecticut, and then graduated from Chase Collegiate School, in Waterbury, Connecticut, in 2004, according to the prep school’s alumni magazine. After high school, Ciaramella attended Yale University, graduating in 2008 as a Russian and East European studies major. In 2007, he was awarded a grant by the Yale Macmillan Center for European Union Studies to “research on the perceptions of the EU among rural Italian residents.” While at Yale, Ciaramella, who speaks Russian, Ukrainian and Arabic, led a protest over the departure of an Arabic department professor, according to the Yale Daily News. The student newspaper wrote, “Students convened outside Silliman at 9 a.m., all dressed in white to symbolize their future goal of bridging the gap between the United States and the Middle East through the use of the Arab language, said Eric Ciaramella ’08, one of the students who led the protest.” Ciaramella also studied at Harvard University, focusing on Russia, Eastern Europe, Central Asia, according to the school’s website. He received a grant in 2009 for research on “Language in the Public Sphere in Three Post-Soviet Capital Cities,” Tbilisi, Georgia; Yerevan, Armenia; Baku, Azerbaijan. Ciaramella was additionally a corresponding author for Harvard’s Department of Linguistics and wrote a paper in 2015 titled, “Structural ambiguity in the Georgian verbal noun.”Ciaramella worked at the World Bank after college, according to a 2011 publication by the international financial institution. In the World Bank report, “Russia: Reshaping Economic Geography,” published in June 2011, Ciaramella is listed in the acknowledgments for making “important contributions” to the research. On a now-deleted Linkedin profile, he described himself as being a “Consultant, Poverty Reduction/Economic Management” at World Bank.

Ah, that's warmer. And it is an Exhibit A of a main reason why the United States finds itself where it is today and why current American so called "elites" cannot find their own ass with both hands in a brightly lit room. One is bound to struggle with own ass finding when having background such as Ciaramella's, and his background with slight deviations within narrow confines of humanities education, from Law to Political "Science", is a background of the overwhelming majority of people who "shape" US policies both domestically and abroad. Ciaramella is a classic product of the US Ivy League degree mills for good ol' boys and girls and, as is expected, possesses zero required instruments for serious foreign policy analysis in which power factor is at the center of an issue and it is beyond, wrong as they are, so called modelling and methodology used in the US for studying this issue--a body of absolutely overwhelming evidence of utter and humiliating, I may add, failure of American institutions dealing with country studies. No bigger evidence exists than a wasteland of Russia Studies field in the United States. 

If you think that a person who does such research as this “Structural ambiguity in the Georgian verbal noun” is a serious analyst, I have a bridge to sell. Knowing language is just a first step in knowing cultures and nations. The idea that some barely 30 years old kid can have a profound understanding of factors forming geopolitical balance by merely studying language or working in the Wold Bank is preposterous. It is not even the issue of IQ-driven so called intelligence metric. I met many people with IQ through the roof and some of them were one of the most impressive dumbfvcks I ever encountered in my life. The issue here is deeper--you literally have brainwashed political operatives, most of them not even book-smart, who are excreted every year from the American "humanities" programs who have "credentials" but have zero actual serious skills which are imperative for a serious statesmanship. They simply do not teach this in the US, nor can it be changed because the whole machine of the US "humanities" education pulsates between two extremes: one is of a complete deconstruction of the American history and culture into one non-stop genocide by whites of everyone else or, on the other extreme, utterly delusional exceptionalist shining city on the hill narrative with latter being as false as the former one. Few common sense and objective views which exist in between are pure coincidence which are there despite a totally corrupt educational system in the US when dealing with humanities. 

That is why, US elites having "analysts" like Ciaramella will not get out of this rut because the only thing they can reproduce are such specimens as this guy perfectly honed for one thing--to exist in the self-contained system of corruption, treachery, snitching, dirty intrigue and delusion, also known as American political system. In this case, forestalling any undeniably upcoming claims from these types of guys about their "honor", duty to a country or "democracy" it should be made patently clear that they have none, other than personal and narrow political interests and ambitions attached to a destruction of America which, at least nominally, was so far known as a land of laws and of the Constitution and which it is no more.   

About This Vindman Dude.

I am really happy that Colonel Lang expressed his feeling on this staffer, because I am not in the position, considering my background and experiences, to pass judgements on this Lt.Colonel before American officers do. Now they spoke:

The US Army sends too many officers to graduate schools to study Political Science and International Relations.  These are not only pseudo sciences based on the 19th Century yearnings of European scholars for a paradigm change in human affairs that would relieve them of their minority status, but these disciplines also create a mentality in the officer students that gives them the idea that they are members of a kind of fraternity that does dominate or should dominate the American foreign policy establishment, what I call The Borg.  The Army lent Vindman to the NSC staff, much as the marines lent Oliver North to the White House staff long ago.   In an NSC staff led by the arch neocon John Bolton he must have felt quite at home.  Last Summer he was given the task of listening (with several others) to Trump's conversation with Zelensky.  This is a routine precaution taken to avoid misunderstandings as to what is said. Vindman says that the president expressed views inconsistent "with the consensus views of the interagency." (the Borg)  LTC Vindman has evidently been seduced by the idea that the president of the US is obligated in any way to accept the consensus of The Borg or even to tell them the truth about his intentions as he directs US foreign policy.  They are ALL just staff, not partners. Vindman has evidently been returned today to the Army to do with him what the institution decides.  As a serving Army officer he can only be ejected from the officer corps for legal cause.  IMO it is likely that the Army will be deeply offended by his rejection of his assigned role as a staff officer to the president and his preferred loyalty to The Borg and will find a comfortable place for him in a basement or on a distant island.  (not Hawaii) I should say that there is nothing wrong with the Army sending officers for study of useful subject but poly sci/ IR are not among them.

Colonel nails it where it really matters, see highlighted in yellow. This is, from purely service POV, a heavy misconduct. You don't like what you see? Submit a request to be transferred to other position or retire if you can. The other, very important part, why this Vindman dude advised Ukraine on how to deal with White House and Rudi Guliani is a subject for the agency which is supposed to actually defend national security, not undermine it as it is the case so far. You know what alphabet (hint: FBI) agency I am talking about. 

All this, including insane Articles of Impeachment written by openly treasonous Adam Schiff and his cabal of democrats, is nothing more than yet another attempt, after RussiaGate hoax going south, at anti-Constitutional coup and it is being played out in a front of our very own eyes. Democratic party has to be eradicated as a political entity because it becomes obvious that it is a party of national treason. Same goes to American mass media, with some exceptions, which are one of the main culprits for a severe political crisis threatening to grow into actual hot civil war. If those people think that they will hide in Europe when things get hot--they better think twice. As per Vindman, someone MUST ask him questions re: his strange relations to Ukrainian side and how those relations correspond to his highly classified access to, however bad, the kitchen in which US foreign policy is cooked. Fascinating. 

Collusion, Meanwhile, Continues.

Look at Ovi and the way he, and two other Russians, implanted to Washington Caps, look at Trump--the collusion is self-evident. Trump handlers are in the White House to demand more from colluded and subverted POTUS.  

If that wasn't bad enough, Russians even penetrated...ahem..not what you think, Ivanka's personal circle. 

It stares right into our faces and Mueller has the audacity to clear Trump. This cannot stand;-) 

Now, without jokes, if US House of Representatives has a confirmed nutjob Rep. Adam Schiff as a Chair of House Intelligence Committee, it must either help Schiff leave office or properly rename itself as House Lack of Intelligence Committee.

WASHINGTON (AP) — "Damning evidence" of collusion with Russia. "More than circumstantial." A scandal of a size "beyond Watergate." For two years, Rep. Adam Schiff, the House Intelligence Committee chairman, seemed to be on every talk and late-night show sounding ominous warnings about what special counsel Robert Mueller might find on President Donald Trump. The California Democrat got the president's attention — a fact confirmed when Trump turned the congressman's name into a foul schoolyard taunt. "Wow, Mr. President, that's a good one," Schiff tweeted back. But Mueller found no coordination or conspiracy involving Trump, his campaign and the Russian government, the Justice Department said Sunday. That sparked furious GOP calls for Schiff to resign from the committee or Congress as the Trump administration went on the offensive, recriminations in mind, with the 2020 elections nearing. "There are a lot of people out there that have done some very evil things, very bad things, I would say treasonous things against our country," Trump said Monday in the Oval Office, without elaborating. "Those people will certainly be looked at."

Truth is, lawyers, even those who prosecute matters related to national security and intelligence are just that--lawyers (or prosecutors). To chair anything related to intelligence one must have a serious professional intelligence background. I was vocal on that issue, in my naive attempts to point out that professional competence is a foundation for any military-intelligence related matter, when I wrote about such clown as Malcolm Nance who has zero credentials and experience in actual humint and operations of influence--it is simply way above his rank, billet and educational level. Yet, recall that this scumbag and self-proclaimed student of KGB became, together with a clueless psychopath Schiff, a Go To guy for so called main-stream sewer aka media. All that is reminiscent of auto-mechanic with AA from local community college expressing opinions on the issues of gynecology and neurosurgery. 

I am not a complete idiot--it is clear that many big fish from Russiagate cesspool will not see justice and will escape, nor am I naive about Trump but for me it is the matter of principle--institutional one. I care about US Constitution and political institutions which are supposed to be guided by it. I have a purely selfish interest in all that in addition to a larger ethical and purely geopolitical ones. So, in coming weeks we will see how much push-back, if any, will be generated against treasonous DNC, Democratic Party and its propaganda outlets, but what is clear today is that it will take months to feel a degree to which the United States, completely out of own resources, further weakened itself geopolitically. I think we may be for a whale of a (further) decline. Could it be also Trump's game? Well, I will add to Patrick Armstrong's inconsistencies about Trump he wrote about--it was Trump who ordered by Executive Order 13806 one of the most important documents in the last decade. 

Assessing and Strengthening the Manufacturing and Defense Industrial Base and Supply Chain Resiliency of the United States

Update: Just noticed Phil Giraldi's excellent piece at Unz, right on topic.  

An Iranian April Surprise?

Self-Destruction.

No, no, not self-destruction of Adam Schiff--the man has no honor nor any other redeeming human qualifies and is basically a low life. There is nothing human left in him to destruct. To come up with this: that Russians "love" 2nd Amendment of the United States Constitution because Russians would love nothing better than Americans killing each-other--this has no name. 

This is America's self-destruction. It is a complete moral and psychiatric implosion unparalleled in US history. It is a complete certifiable madness. This madness originates with Obama Administration, HRC, Democratic Party and RINOs, together with rogue elements in the so called Intelligence Community and US mainstream mass media. This cabal of hysterical psychopaths will throw under the bus everything else what is left good in America and will risk a war if needed, just to cover up what they were up to trying to remove President Trump as lawfully elected POTUS. Russia is a perfect, in their mind, enemy which is supposed to "unify" the nation. Anything goes as long as this smoke-screen obscures the real deal of State Treason which is being still perpetrated in a fight for America's future, any future. 

If they "win", the United Sates will be eventually turned into completely totalitarian state (it is happening already) with brainwashed population and further descent into the third world hell-hole status. Obviously, Russia will be blamed for that. Eventually 9-11 will be blamed on Russia, the same as Challenger disaster and this time is very near. 

 After Florida School Shooting, Russian ‘Bot’ Army Pounced

As I predicted:

Once the time for "review" of State Department, as Nunes indicated, comes we may begin to see not only legal, already clear, challenges to the American nation as a whole, we may start seeing a larger framework of truly global conspiracy to unleash Cold War 2.0 both for Clinton-Liberal-Globalist cabal reasons and for internal economic reasons too. One of those reasons manifested itself two days ago in rather "impressive" dive of the Stock Market--this is just a tip of an iceberg and it is not even the most important one. But about this--later. New bag of popcorn is in order as are safety belts.

 

I am beginning to suspect that these morons are ready for a Hot War and it is not surprising--all their life they served only their own interests and looked down at deplorables as mere obstacle on their way to absolute power. Add here that most of them never served a day in uniform and have no grasp of what violence, let alone warfare, can bring in the face of many of them qualifying perfectly for judicial proceeding which will result in prison sentences--they will be ready for anything. Waiting for Nunes' new Memo, I only hope that he is well protected--I know he is not alone among true American patriots.
