Senator Graham Has "Flight Forward" Psychotic Episode in Fox Hannity Interview, Calls For Putin Assassination-- What Triggered This? My Hot Take





Senator Lindsey Graham Loses His Sh*t In Fox Interview With Hannity, Calls For Putin's Assassination,  Gives Putin Huge Propaganda Win And Justifies Claims US Wants Regime Change---

In a completely psychotic rant bespeaking new depths of moral cowardice since his embrace of his former enemy Donald Trump, Graham has greatly undermined US and European Security and unity in the face of Russia's onslaught. His statement is in gross and negligent contradistinction to the entirety of US and European cooperation in finding a way out for Ukraine without precipitating World War 3. 

As far as Lindsey Graham is concerned, he has a proven track record of craven moral capitulation, and is actually believed to have undergone a degenerative character change by people who know him, who used to work with him and considered him a friend, including President Biden and Hillary Clinton. We all saw the moment he lost his soul on live TV during the Kavanaugh hearings. It was a spectacular breakdown if people remember it.

What is behind this episode on Hannity? In military jargon it's called "flight forward". When a combatant is so frightened that they disobey orders to hold their positions, and charge out of their foxhole to fight the enemy single handed. All they do is put themselves and their unit in  mortal danger. So knowing this guy, I would say that it's just pure cowardice speaking, he snapped under pressure.

Now, the question is, what is he so afraid of? Is it the political disaster for the GOP of Trump's and Fox's defense of Putin? Or something a bit closer to home for little Lindsey who has, shall we say, a few entanglements with Russian finance that might be...damaging when reexamined?

If liquor stores are banning the sale of imported Russian Vodka, what might the voters do about Senators who appear to be "Made In Russia"? I'm sure there are pictures somewhere of Graham with his Russian Oligarch friends like Leonard Blavatnik, or at least the $800,000 check stub for his donations to Graham.  Or worse. Put it on billboards in South Carolina, with a slogan. "Ban Russian Imports, Send Graham Home", or something like that. 

This would be a very effective counter to the GOP trying to ban books. We can start a campaign to ban Republicans who are "Made In Russia". We know how to find them.. Start with the NRA donors list. Then the FEC records to see which candidates took money from Russian Oligarchs. There may be a few Dems on that list, but really this is going to be an overwhelmingly GOP list. Russian companies in Mitch McConnell's state of Kentucky? Russian donors? Ooops!

Every piece of campaign material put out by Democrats against GOP heavyweights endorsed by Trump should include photos of their opponents with a "Russian Seal of Approval" which includes a little picture of Vlad on it. 

Megachurches whose Ministers like Franklin Graham who are great friends with so-called "Christian" Putin and his agents? Fair game. How about investigating CPAC after their Russian fascist promoting Nuremburg rally last week in Florida? After all, like the NRA, CPAC officials were literally "in deep" with convicted and deported Russian spy and "honeytrap" Maria Butina. Where there is a hot Russian spy, there is smoke and fire, no? Let's look at CPAC's donors list, Merrick Garland. And while we are at it, what about the $400,000 Bitcoin transfer from Europe to the "Stop The Steal" rally organizers in the week leading up to January 6th? 

"What's the difference between a GOP candidates speech and Putin's talking points? That's easy, you can't see their lips moving. 

The relevant point is that the GOP is, to coin a term, "chingada". They cannot take back their weeks of propaganda in defense of Putin and Russia. They are on tape! Imagine the Democratic campaign ads with all of these going out in the next year, with Trump's interview leading the way. They can spin and spin and spin like a Russian Ballerina until they bore a hole into the center of the Earth, and it won't help them. That is, if we take these developments and effectively deploy ourselves against both President Biden's enemies and Democracy's as well.

 Well, Trump called it all a "witch hunt". Why don't we have a real one then?

Today in History, July 17, 1918- Czar of Russia and Family Executed

Today in History, July 17, 1918, Execution of the Romanovs, the Czar and Czaritsa of Russia and their Children by the Soviet Government. Today in History, July 17, 1918, Execution of the Romanovs, the Czar and Czaritsa of Russia and their Children by the Soviet Government. By July 1918, Russia was engulfed in a hellish civil war which would cost millions of lives and damage a country already reeling from the devastation of World War I. Swept away in this hellfire was the old Tsarist monarchy, last headed by Nicholas II. Nicholas had abdicated in 1917 as the Russian Revolution swept through the nation. Since then he had been a prisoner of successive governments, first the Provisional Government and then the administration run by Vladimir Lenin and the Bolsheviks. The Romanovs were shipped from place to place, eventually coming to Yekaterinburg in April, in the Urals, an area known for its hard Communist sympathies. As the White Russian forces grew closer, Lenin and his associates ordere...

Milton Friedman- The Man Who Revived Fascist Economics, and Called It "Freedom".

Image
  You may have heard the name before, as he was featured in a PBS Series, titled "Free To Choose", also the title of his most famous and misnamed book. He was a prolific author, and widely publicized by Conservative News Media and Magazines, especially by the followers of William F. Buckley. In fact, Milton Friedman is the current top economic advisor to the so-called "movement conservatives", from Nixon to Reagan, to Newt Gingrich and Trumpworld,  and is still to this day the main architect of the GOP approach to dealing with the present economic crisis, though he has been keeping a low profile. A very low profile. In fact, six feet under. He is currently dead, and has been for 14 years, yet his horrific philosophy continues to stalk about, haunting us like the living dead animated by a Voodoo curse, burning live Chickens, chanting incantations, and propitiating the irrational forces of Britain's Adam Smith and his "Invisible Hand". (Which is the hand...

How Do You Know If What You Are Reading Is True Or Useful? - A One Year Old Facebook Post

Image
 How do we know whether what we are reading is true, or for that matter useful? There are many journalists in the US today who are not only excellent writers, but are just good people. They are well informed, have the best intentions and are highly professional.  I have to force myself to write, and it comes with great difficulty because I am blocked, and had little journalistic training. Without an editor I feel lost, and feel as though I want to rewrite everything or throw it out after I read it. Reading books and articles is my favorite hobby, and when I'm doing that I am in my happy place.  As of now I have 30 News and Magazine sites bookmarked and I read them everyday as a routine. I usually read anywhere from 2-10 articles in each, depending upon what newsworthy events are breaking that day. Plus I have a number of books on history that I have going at any one time. This is no big accomplishment or unique, it's just how I occupy my time and is my form of work these ...
