monitoring Trump and relevant contemporary events

Most people have figured it out and you just have to figure it out too.

I doubt it. Blatham knows how to skirt the line. You probably blew through the line like a drag car.

Former CIA Director John Brennan suggested Wednesday that Russia may have compromising information on President Donald Trump and is using it to exercise power over him.

Brennan, who has emerged as one of Trump's fiercest critics over the last year, told host Mika Brzezinski on MSNBC that Trump's congratulatory message to Russian President Vladimir Putin the wake of his reelection this week, which critics viewed as a "sham," suggested that Trump was scared to cross the Russian leader.

"I think he's afraid of the President of Russia," Brennan said on Wednesday. "I think one can speculate as to why, that the Russians may have something on him personally that they could always roll out and make his life more difficult."

Brennan noted Trump's long history of praise for the Russian strongman.

"Clearly I think it's important for us to be able to improve relations with Russia," he said. "But the fact that he's had this fawning attitude toward Mr. Putin, has not said anything negative about him, continues to say to me that he has something to fear, and has something very serious to fear."

Trump gave his congratulations to Putin during a phone call Tuesday after the Russian president was reelected to another six-year term with more than 75% of the vote. But election observers claimed numerous violations, including ballot stuffing and voter coercion. A noted Russian election monitor claimed that Putin may have received as many as 10 million fraudulent votes.

Trump gave his congratulatory message despite an apparent reminder on his briefing materials prepared by advisers that read, in capital letters, "DO NOT CONGRATULATE."

Brennan's suggestion that Trump is being unduly influenced by Putin echoes uncorroborated claims stemming from the dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele made in his Russia dossier.

"I believe that the Russians would not, they would opt for things to do if they believed that it was in their interest," he said, "and the Russians I think have had long experience with Mr. Trump and may have things that they could expose."

John Brennan’s Thwarted Coup

It was the Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky who coined the phrase the “dustbin of history.” To his political opponents, he sputtered, “You are pitiful, isolated individuals! You are bankrupts. Your role is played out. Go where you belong from now on — into the dustbin of history!”

It is no coincidence that John Brennan, who supported the Soviet-controlled American Communist Party in the 1970s (he has acknowledged that he thought his vote for its presidential candidate Gus Hall threatened his prospects at the CIA; unfortunately, it didn’t),

So now,

And now, George Nader has left the USA?

Quite apparently, there's no ethical bottom for these guys.

The orderly hasn't given him his meds yet today, forgive the poor thing, it knows not what is right and just!
