Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ)
plans to deliver a speech later in the week torching President Trump’s attacks
on the Empire of Lies known as the mainstream press. He also intends to compare the President of
the United States of America to Josef Stalin.
Flake’s senate term
ends in January 2019. From now until
then, he intends to deliver a series of speeches outlining how Donald Trump’s
presidency has impacted the country.
Excerpts of his speech
were provided by Flake’s office to NBC’s Kasie Hunt.
“2017 was a year which
saw the truth—objective, empirical, evidence-based truth—more battered and
abused than any other time in the history of our country, at the hands of the
most powerful figure in our government.”
“Mr. President, it is a
testament to the condition of our democracy that our own president uses words
infamously spoken by Josef Stalin to describe his enemies.”
“The free press is the
despot’s enemy, which makes the free press the guardian of democracy. When a
figure in power reflexively calls any press that doesn’t suit him ‘fake news’,
it is that person who should be the figure of suspicion, not the press.”
“The similarities to
Stalin should be a source of great shame for senators,” Flake will add.
Flake’s specious
criticism is the benchmark of someone whose thirst for stupid is unquenchable;
his ignorance of Stalin’s savagery alarming.
Upon the death of Stalin in 1953, the millions he incarcerated cheered
at the demise of one of history’s most murderous dictators.
In Episode 1 of “Russia’s
War: Blood Upon The Snow” , the
opening narration reveals to the viewer: “Unknown to the Soviet people, before
his death Vladimir Lenin drew up a testament; an assessment of the leaders who
would come after him. The outstanding personalities
he recognized were Leon Trotsky and Josef Stalin. But his postscript contained
a political time bomb─a condemnation of Stalin’s character and his suggestion
that Stalin’s post of General Secretary should be taken from him. The testament was never made public.”
“Blood Upon The Snow” features
rarely seen archival war photographs and astonishing footage from over a dozen
countries...some of which are believed to be the only filmed evidence of some
of the most infamous WWII atrocities, such as the Katyn Forest Massacre of
4,000 Polish officers by the Soviets.
The filmmakers assert it is the only documentary evidence of Stalin's
Order 227, his brutal decree to embattled troops at Stalingrad that any Red
Army soldier in retreat would be shot by "blocking units" bringing up
the rear. It provides remarkable insight
into what led to the death of 65 million Soviets during Stalin’s reign of
terror.
Comrade Flake’s contempt
is enraging. He is employing something
purely Soviet: Make accusations and then
end things by suggesting someone be locked up in a psychiatric facility.
