She is right, oil and gas is propping up terrible governments around the world and if all oil and gas productions ceased due to Climate Change many, many countries' boundaries would change. There would be governments changing right and left.

It's scary to think that the people who are propping up monsters like Trump, Johnson, Erdogan, Duterte, Modi, and so on, are the ones who think that these miserable excuses for leaders are the "chosen ones".

she as well as others have figured out what is about to happen and why. Putin wants the Sanctions removed so he can get access to Capital and Foreign Investment in Russia. Things in Russia are in damn tough shape for the Russian People. The Oligarchs have stripped every Ruble they could and move it to the West leaving a whole Country in Poverty for the most part.

Did Putin offer Trump some kind of monetary prize for helping make this happen. Lots of hinting in that direction,but,first the sanctions have to be pulled and if the 2016 Election Hacking and the Ukrainian Peace deal goes down. Well,the rest is elementary. Moscow Don and his Ilk score Billions in compensation.

Or to how much he is perceived to have.

He also responds to flattery, like a cocker spaniel being rubbed behind the ears, "Who's a good boy?"

Putin provides both in spades. It scares the hell out of Fat Donnie to lose either one, which is why he has been saying at rallies, "I should get an extra two years for the two years of investigations. Some leaders don't ever have to leave office -- that sounds good to me!"

Rudy Guillani appeared to have had a life time of playing with the Russian Mob Boys and now it is pay up time.

This whole story is about making the Mueller Report a story of fiction and Ukraine's Peace deal with Russia will be used as a method of removing Sanctions on Russia .

Putin wins!!!!!! He will be able to stop a massive over throw of his Government.

Monday was one of Putin's big money days. He now controls the Oil flow coming out of Syria. Plus his Pipeline Company will control a major portion of Oil flowing out of the Region for Export.

That's why he keeps whispering in Fat Donnie's ear about how he's the greatest leader in the history of civilization.

Putin is doing his best to recreate a new Soviet Union. Why do you thing he adopted the Name Russian Federation.
