    "CNN has just reported that last week the heads of eight intelligence agencies presented information to both President Obama and President-elect Donald Trump that show Russian operatives claiming to have “compromising personal and financial information about Mr. Trump.”
    This would mean that the Russians have the ability to blackmail Trump into doing whatever they wish. Not only do they have this dirt on Donald Trump, but they were constantly reminding him of it – and telling him what they wanted to see out of him throughout the campaign, since Trump campaign surrogates were in “continuing” contact with Russian government surrogates throughout the entire campaign."

    Apparently Mr. Trump attended a Orgy in Russia that was taped...so now we can watch The first Family in all their glory, truly sickening even before his tax info gets hacked.

    Is there supposed to be something "new" about any of this spy-versus-spy stuff?

    Reality: If the Russians indeed "hacked" Hilarity Clinton's email, servers, etc., then they surely had piles of dirt on HER! Who would really have been "blackmailed"?! :eekeyes:

    With Trump we know what we've got. He's a gritty, unapologetic, energetic man who is often blunt, crude, and willful. In his youth he probably had thousands of women, got drunk, smoked grass, and got into countless risky business deals to make billions out of millions.... But he knows business, he knows power, he knows how to carve through mountains of bull (*)(*)(*)(*) in order to get meaningful things done! Are we going to find out that he went to lavish, big-league parties in foreign countries back in the day, helping himself to champagne, caviar, and exquisite women? Very possibly. Do I care? Not in the SLIGHTEST.

    With Hilarity Clinton we had this two-faced hypocrite who pretended to love lower-class people, but derided many of them as "basement dwellers and baristas" to her donor-class clientele for the Clinton "Foundation" on Wall Street. She wanted to project this image of being some kind of 'Mother Teresa' who was going to shower all the leeches and parasites with more and more welfare, including free college, but she had turned the State Department of the United States into a WHOREHOUSE for (again) wealthy donors to the (guess what) Clinton "Foundation".

    After nearly eight years of Obama's lies, manipulation, and autocratic rule with "a pen and a phone", the American voters knew the smell of (*)(*)(*)(*) when they smelled it. And that's what "Third-Term" Hilarity positively reeked of!

    Those were our choices, and although Trump was by no means my ideal choice, I'd take him over anything the hyperliberal, radical wing of the Democrat Party had served up for election any day! Now... let's hear some more stories about Trump porking some Russian beauties in St. Petersburg. It sure as hell beats Hilarity's 'Mother Teresa' act.... And in the background, maybe, just maybe, in our spare time, we can all work to truly "make America GREAT again" instead of obsessing on this childish, spiteful (*)(*)(*)(*)....

    That explains why Obama was a failed President, the worse President in Americas history.

    Also explains the "The World's Most Powerful People" list.

    #1. Vladimir Putin

    #2. Donald Trump :flagus:

    # 48. Barack Obama :roflol:

    “First, we have no idea if any of these allegations are true," wrote Lawfare staffers Quinta Jurecic, Susan Hennessey and Benjamin Wittes. "Yes, they are explosive; they are also entirely unsubstantiated, at least to our knowledge, at this stage. For this reason, even now, we are not going to discuss the specific allegations within the document.”

    Iriemon? Is that you? You usually have a much longer memory than this. She stood for an Obama "Third Term", and all the hyperliberal bilge that it accrued during the past eight years! Did you ever hear her voice support for getting rid of any of it? Did she oppose the lies and fraud of Obamacare? Did she oppose 'Sanctuary Cities' that deliberately flaunt and evade United States Immigration Laws? For that matter, did she ever oppose the tacit Obama regime approval for state and local law enforcement authorities to just release illegal alien criminals so that they could re-enter the country, illegally, over and over and over...? Didn't she advocate giving -- at TAXPAYER expense, free college for all these thumb-sucking 'adult-children' so they could lay around on their worthless asses for a few more years before slouching on over to sign up for the equivalent of welfare-for-life?

    In her campaign appearances, didn't she put peculiarly excessive emphasis on catering to Blacks, as though they were the most important focus for her forthcoming administration? Blacks are as important as anyone else in our society, Iriemon, but they make up only 13.8% of the population! Just because Obama was half-Black, why should she continue to pander to them like they're the only people who matter? (Votes, of course....) Like Obama and his regime's "Justice Department", didn't she blithely ignore the fact that Blacks commit more crimes than any other group in this country, and instead condemn many of the rest of us as "deplorables"?! And if you think that didn't meet with the approval of the horribly radical wing of the Democrat Party, why did they so enthusiastically approve of this blanket condemnation? Why do they refuse to accept Trump's valid election to the Presidency and promise nothing but hammer-headed, hateful resistance and obstruction to every attempt he will undertake to pull this country's head out of its Socialist-lite ASS and give us a fighting chance to become truly great again...?

    I've told you at least a half-dozen times, I wanted to see Rick Perry in the White House, for SO many reasons. I supported Donald Trump mainly to keep Hilarity Clinton from contaminating the Supreme Court with any more activist, lock-step, judicial GOONS, like Obama gave us with Kagan and Sotomayor. But as a compromise, sure, I'd take Donald Trump over Hilarity Clinton or anything else that crawls up out of today's post-Obama, hyperliberal Democrat toilet.

    The FBI, CIA, and the NSA have all lied in the past so why would this be any different.

    It doesn't bother me because Trump lives a rather uncensored existence. With his narcissism, anybody who tries to extort something from him might very well become the focus of his wrath just to prove to them that he is bigger than they are and cannot be extorted. I can't imagine that people have not tried and failed to shake him down before just by virtue of his work in New York real estate.

    Her Russian aggression, anti-gun, pro-PC, pro-Obama, continuing to arm Syrian Al Qaeda "rebels"....list goes on. Luckily America avoided that disaster.

    It turns out it was a joke made by 4chan guys to sucker establishment worshipers. Trump is likely to sue buzzfeed. The drones should also wonder what other fake news they've been fed to parrot. They won't, but they should.

    Your response to Iriemon's query directed to me was more direct and more succinct than mine. I must learn to be more to-the-point. But, so far, he hasn't responded to either of us.

    If there's an even greater tragedy for the radical wing of the Democrat Party than the defeat itself it's that idea of a "new normal" for the United States was so undesirable to so many of our citizens outside of the metro areas on both coasts. That's a large part of why the hyperlibs are still so pop-eyed with rage two months after the election... they can't even imagine that anyone could be nauseated at their new Obamanite paradigms that:

    1. Americans who don't or won't work to support themselves are "victims" who deserve cradle-to-grave welfare -- especially if they're members of minority groups.

    2. Twenty-six year old adults are actually "children" who should kept on Mommy and Daddy's insurance polices and be given free college by the government.

    3. America should be a country with essentially NO borders at all, and should welcome anyone who wanders in here with open arms, all the necessities of life -- including the implied promise of endless welfare if they buy into the Obamanite concept of the Welfare State as pushed by the Democrat Party.

    4. The government of the United States should completely ignore larger-scale economic policy and instead turn over all power and responsibility for the nation's economy to an unelected group of central bankers in the Federal Reserve System.

    5. American society should be all-inclusive to every practitioner of violent religion, illegal alien criminals, and mental illness that produces behavior so bizarre that males and females are encouraged to "change their gender" -- even if purely in their own imaginations -- and THEN go barging into public bathrooms reserved for the opposite sex!

    6. America should be a country that is endlessly sorrowful and penitent for having achieved so many successes and such a high standard of living during the past 100 years without making sure that everybody in society also enjoyed the rewards for skillful, hard work -- whether they ever actually worked or not!

    Gee! Why on earth wouldn't anybody like to have a "Third Term" with more of that? Hilarity, Bernie, and all the rest of the sad, little Libocrats will no doubt be pondering THAT for the next four years.... :confusion:

    Bravo. Great post. :clapping: I feel the same. I said before that maybe an arrogant SOB like Trump is just what America needs.

    No, your war mongering neocon side is not going to get their war with Russia they now so frantically want. Hilary Clinton lost and her promise to go war against Russia lost along with her.

    Hopefully, President Trump will eliminate all Democratic corporate fascists out of the US intelligence community, military and federal government immediately.

    This is a well known Russian tactic, and one used by Putin in the past. So the possibility is very scary.

    Read about it at this link: http://www.npr.org/sections/paralle...russian-word-americans-need-to-know-kompromat

    Now whether it is actually true is debatable. But Trumps embrace of Russia is concerning as they have just invaded a sovereign nation against treaties they signed with that country, annexed land, shot down a civilian airliner, supported a bloody dictator who kills his own people, etc.

    I believe it's true not only because of the source but also because of how Trump has been behaving. If he wasn't so focussed on Russia I would have been more inclined to consider it fake news.

    It doesn't look good when a president elect goes against his own party, intelligence service and even his own country to support another

    And Clapper announced it was all fake.

    Just more proof the media is nothing more than "progressive" propaganda mouthpieces.

    I read it that the entire establishment is going against him. Even if he ever reaches the WH - and I seriously doubt that he will - they'll soon find a way of getting him out, probably with a continuation of the spurious lies, disinformation and exaggerations. The arms industry needs a permanent 'bad guy' and it just so happens to be Russia, when really - if the intelligence services had any bloody nous at all, which they obviously don't - it ought to be China. Trump is intelligent enough to know that very soon the West is going to be up against Islamic State, and will desperately need Russia to help us fight them.
