Intel Warning: Trump Determined To Strike Inside U.S.

Reports that US intelligence believes Russia attempted to help Donald Fucking Trump become president by hacking information harmful to Hillary Clinton sent a shockwave through Washington this weekend, as politicians came to terms with the new reality that other powers can release information that will affect things.

After Trump dismissed the findings as not consistent with what he wants to believe is true--and belittled American intelligence in the process--US intelligence agencies were reported yesterday to be on alert for possible reprisals by Trump's forces, non-state Trump actors, or lone-wolf Terrorumpists.

The New York Times this weekend reported that Russia also hacked into Republican emails but did not release them because Russia is not covered by the Fairness Doctrine any more than American TV news is.

A bipartisan group of lawmakers vowed to investigate just as soon as they wrap up torture, the Iraq War, missed 9/11 warnings, and Pearl Harbor. Also, it turns out Congress knew about it at the time, Sen. Maj. Leader Mitch McConnell wanted to keep it quiet, and Democrats went along because they are Democrats.

the social safety net, drop various laws designed to protect minorities and laws that protect the environment.

Id call that terrorism of the worst kind. Real people will DIE from what the republicans are going to do.

That's how they are. The new Russian government is really the Russian Mafia in a new suit and they use the same methods as our Mafia does: blackmail, extortion and murder.

anytime, anyway.

He only cares about getting permits to build more hotels and apartments in Russia etc

And he can blame the Russians for jobs not coming back. They do not need to worry about that.

A win win.

If he can staff his hotels and resorts with robots he will.
