Putin has all of the Epstein files, he owns a lot of people. I also believe that Bibi is involved, just my opinion.
This is a lot worse than pee tapes.

(31,644 posts)Putin has been grooming Krasnov for decades and look at the results he got, the United States is becoming a shit hole country.
What Krasnov is doing is no joke.
How many rich bastards raped little girls and are getting away with it?

Why would Russian intel services start "grooming" a failed casino owner, reality tv star, bankrupt man-baby who sells steak sauce, on the brilliant calculation this moron would one day, decades later, be POTUS??
I don't see it

Anyways, I feel like without knowing more about the total population of people Russia was grooming to do their bidding, it's hard to know whether it makes sense for him to have been a part of said population. Not sure we could presume they'd only try to corrupt people they think have a shot at POTUS itself. I have read at least one fairly convincing article over the years laying out the case that Russia's been grooming Trump a long time, but forget where I saw it so can't link to it.

(13,334 posts)to get kompromat on so he would launder money through his businesses and I think we can all agree at this time, that is what happened. Putin lucked out that Americans were so fucking stupid that they elected a moron, who he owned, to be their president. There are a lot of rich and powerful men he has kompromat on and therefore has control over, such as Musk who not only now controls the media narrative on X and is close to the US aerospace secrets. These powerful rich people have close ties to power and as has been illuminated over the past years how they can control US policy. With Trump in power, Putin has moved many of the powerful into government positions, "Nutlick" and Tulsi Gabbard being another example, I am sure we can name many. Your government is being run by Putin, that is something that it is difficult to get one's head around but it is the truth.
