The Singular Crutch Holding Up A Disillusioned And Fractured Democrat Party

Resisting President Trump has turned Democrats and Liberals into truly crazed McCarthyites.

Russia, Russia, Russia.  That’s all the Left can dredge up to blame Granny’s stunning loss in November.  Russian trolls were responsible for Socialist Pavlov dogs voting for Bernie.  Jill Stein was accused of having ties to Uncle Vlad by The Daily Kos (I refuse to link to them.)  MSNBC’s bread-and-butter.has consisted almost entirely of conspiracies concerning Trump’s connections to Russia and Hillary surrogate Howard (the screamer) Dean declared in late October of 2016 that FBI Director James Comey was on the same side as Putin.

James Comey reported in January that the DNC never allowed the FBI access to their servers or to John Podesta’s Smartphone in order to investigate the hack of their emails. Instead, the DNC hired the private cyber security firm, CrowdStrike, to carry out the investigation and the FBI used the data provided by CrowdStrike to make their conclusions.  It is still unknown why the DNC denied repeated requests by the FBI to investigate the original devices, or why the FBI decided to make any assumptions based on CrowdStrike’s report without access to the original devices. However, some experts are calling this report into question, and are now claiming that the very premise on which the report was based is flawed.  In reviewing the case, cyber security expert Jeffrey Carr determined:
“Part of the evidence supporting Russian government involvement in the DNC and related hacks (including the German Bundestag and France’s TV5 Monde) stemmed from the assumption that X-Agent malware was exclusively developed and used by Fancy Bear. We now know that’s false and that the source code has been obtained by others outside of Russia.”
The Democrat Party and their media mouthpieces continue their frantic red-baiting in an effort to divert attention away from the failures of the last 8 years and their ineffectiveness as a party.

Diogenes’ Middle Finger offered these thoughts on their ring leader, the “snarling old bastard” Chuck Schumer:
“We have a hyper-partisan environment in which all sides too easily and too quickly abandon intellectual honesty. It is notable that Lindsey Graham and Susan Collins, two of the GOP's most strident critics of Donald Trump, are okay with [Comey’s] firing.” 
“It is not a constitutional crisis, nor is it a dark day for democracy. It is a president exercising his constitutional duties on the advice of his cabinet members. The timing is bothersome and may look bad, but the underlying rationale suggests the decision was made thoughtfully. However, the left will never believe President Trump nor believe anything other than the worst possible conspiracies about him. Russia-ism is the new Birtherism.”

The Russians, James Comey and the Dog Ate My Homework

So, all you 'Hillary lost' deniers, can we give it a rest??

There's nothing like liberals in high dudgeon, incredulous that we would allow Russia to interfere in our electoral process! When asked, of course, they have no evidence of any direct link between the Russians and the WikiLeaks revelations of deceit, misconduct and malicious mischief revealed in the emails of Hillary and her closest friends and advisers.

And don't get them started on FBI director James Comey! First he head fakes them into praising him for not recommending Hillary for prosecution, then he announces he has new information, after promising to inform them of any new information. Horrors!

Imagine if you will, a world in which Secretary of State Hillary Clinton accepts and uses a government email account for 100% of her business related emails, and then turned over 100% of those emails on her last day in office, as was and is required by law. In that world, where there are no private servers and no emails that weren't submitted for public scrutiny four years before the 2016 election, what part is there for Comey to play?

It seems a bit odd that unless Russia somehow directed Hillary not to campaign in Wisconsin, instructed her to drop like a rock at the end of the 9/11 memorial, or convinced her to set up a private server and conduct State business on it, that Russia is in any way culpable in Hillary's loss.

Time to "Move on".

DNC Rent-Boy John Harwood

The journalist who was exposed in the Podesta emails by WikiLeaks for his unethical relationship with the Clinton campaign foolishly hosted his own poll on Twitter asking who Americans believed regarding the hacking of the DNC:  WikiLeaks, or the US intelligence community.
This is the same media rent-boy who asked Podesta “What should I ask Jeb?” in advance of an interview with the candidate.  And he’s the same hustler who was so very, very proud of himself for asking Donald Trump if he was “running a comic book version of a presidential campaign” during the GOP debate in October 2015.

Harwood’s poll would be meaningful only in the context of the echo chamber from which he preaches but for the fact that it backfired astonishingly.

The Russian Reset Reset Is Lit

President “Precious” declared 35 Russian intelligence operatives “persona non grata” yesterday as part of sanctions he ordered after accusing them of hacking the presidential election on orders from Vladimir Putin.  He also closed compounds in New York and Maryland while imposing economic sanctions on Putin’s FSB (Federal Security Service formerly known as the KGB) and GRU (Glavnoye Razvedyvatel'noye Upravleniye) spy agencies adding them to the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons.
Foreign minister Sergey Lavrov fired back at Ol’ Jug Ears’ decision to kick the diplomats out of the US by banishing 35 diplomats of their own.

According to The Daily Mail, Lavrov’s spokeswoman Maria Zakharova claimed the US and American people were “humiliated by their own President” in the Cold War-style measures against Moscow, intended as punishment for hacking the US election.

“The people who occupied the White House for eight years—this is not the Administration. They are the group of foreign policy losers, angry and shallow-brained. Today Obama has officially confessed to it,” said Zakharova.

Ms Zakharova claimed US citizens were let down by the White House, and added: “Not by international terrorists, not by troops of the enemy. This time Washington got a slap in the face from its own master and it increased the urgent agenda of the incoming Donald Trump team to its maximum level. Moscow hopes that Trump's arrival next month in the White House will gradually lead to a reset of relations between the two countries.”

“That's all, the curtain falls. The bad performance is over.”

“The whole world, from the stalls to the upper balcony, is watching the smashing blow on American prestige and its leadership made by Barack Obama and his illiterate foreign policy team that disclosed its top secret to the worldtheir exceptional nature was a mask for their helplessness. No single enemy could do more harm to the USA.”
UPDATE 9:04 AM:  The Associated Press is now reporting that Russia’s president Vladimir Putin will not be expelling US diplomats in response to a new round of US sanctions.

Obama’s Last Chance To Lie To Our Faces In 2016

The final press conference of 2016 for The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer was laced with his usual honeyed words and condescension.  It reminded me of Cheech & Chong; those zany 1970s stoners of “Up In Smoke” fame.

Choomers are notorious for uttering sentences they believe to be profound.  This president is no exception. He kicked things off with a long list of all the amazing things he has done for this country—and the world.
A considerable amount of time was spent discussing the gremlins in the Kremlin. “What we have simply said are the facts,” he said. “Based on uniform intelligence assessments, the Russians were responsible for hacking the DNC, and as a consequence, it is important for us to review all elements of that and make sure we are preventing that kind of interference through cyber attacks in the future.”
“In fact,” he said, “we did not see further tampering of the election process, but the leaks through Wikileaks had already occurred.”  That Obama is one fierce president.  Imagine anyone else saying “Cut that out!” and having it work so effectively.
He once again failed to acknowledge the many ISIS-inspired attacks on his watch which occurred on American soil.  The truth continues to be a casualty of this administration.  It is the sacrificial lamb slaughtered in furtherance of his image.

Jug Ears Orders New Hashtag Be Unleashed On Russian Hackers

Fake News Alert: Chuck Todd’s Russian Hacking Rant

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs 
of the Russian Federation
Kremlin, Moscow, Russia


Mr. Chuck Todd, Political Director NBC News
30 Rockefeller Plaza
New York, NY 10112

Dear Comrade,

As purveyor of your Kapitalist ideology, Ayn Rand once noted, “The uncontested absurdities of today are the accepted slogans of tomorrow. They come to be accepted by degrees, by precedent, by implication, by erosion, by default, by dint of constant pressure on one side and constant retreat on the other—until the day when they are suddenly declared to be the country's official ideology.”

We at the Kremlin were intrigued by your interview with Reince Priebus this morning.

The Washington Free Beacon uploaded a video on YouTube™ documenting your President World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer publicly pleading lying 36 times promising if Americans liked their doctor they could keep their doctor.  If they liked their healthcare plan they could keep their healthcare plan.


Two years ago your panty-waist leader, in an interview with Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly during your Super Bowl, tried to put behind him the scandals that hung over his second term suggesting his administration did not mislead the public on the Benghazi attack and astonishingly went so far as to say the IRS targeting scandal had “not even a smidgen of corruption.”


Your former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, blamed an “awful internet video” for the deaths of four Americans in the terror attack in Benghazi just three days after the assault on the compound that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty.


Comrade, only two of your intelligence entities—the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)—have weighed in on this issue, not 17 intelligence agencies [as Bolshevik Hillary had claimed]. And what they said was ambiguous about our government’s involvement in the election where your goddess failed to ascend to the presidency.

We are having great difficulty understanding why you doubt the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation when we vehemently deny hacking accusations or “rigging” the election in favor of President-elect Donald J. Trump.  Perhaps we have underestimated your Ministry of Propaganda.
As our esteemed President, Vladimir Putin once noted, “Those who fight corruption should be clean themselves.”  Perhaps you should consider sending your résumé to RT (Russian Television).  Kulaks would rejoice and Comrade Schultz would be glad for the company.  He often complains of the bitter cold in our gulags.

Best regards,






Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov
