The Deep State requires a major enemy to justify its enormous annual budget. Russia has been chosen, and Trump will not be permitted to normalize relations.
The annual budget of the military/security complex is $1,000 billion. This vast sum is drawn from US taxpayers who have many unmet needs. To justify such an enormous budget a major enemy is required.
The military/security complex and the media and politicians that the complex owns have designated Russia to be that enemy.
The complex and its political and media agents will not permit Trump to normalize relations with Russia.
To prevent President Trump from reducing the dangerous tensions between nuclear powers that Washington has created, the military/security complex orchestrated Russiagate, a proven hoax, but believed by many due to its endless repetition. The military/security complex orchestrated the false indictments of 12 Russians. The military/security complex orchestrated the false arrest of Maria Butina, and so on and on.
The military/security complex acting through the politicians and presstitutes that it owns and controls has turned the normal everyday responsibility of the President—one acknowledged and acted upon by every previous president—to defuse tensions that could lead to nuclear war into a high crime.
President Trump is accused of treason for trying to make peace!
An unaware person might think that this is silly and laugh, but as Finian Cunningham shows, President Trump has been set-up as a treasonous enemy of America. We are currently experiencing sedition at the highest levels as the military/security complex unfolds its coup against the elected president of the United States.
In 1961 President Dwight Eisenhower warned Americans in his last public address that the military/industrial complex was a threat to American democracy. Truer words were never spoken by an American president.
Shortly thereafter, the military/security complex assassinated President John F. Kennedy for working toward peace with Soviet leader Khruschev.
To get rid of President Nixon, who made too many arms control agreements with the Soviets and opened to China, the military/security complex used its asset, the Washington Post, to orchestrate the “Watergate crisis” that the military/security complex used to force Nixon’s resignation.
Now the military/security complex is openly inciting sedition against the President of the United States. If this plot succeeds, which is the most likely case, America will be a complete dystopia and all independent voices will be shut down.
Who can Trump rely on? Not on his own political party. Not on his own government. Not on the print and TV media or NPR. Not on Europe. Not on the Secret Service. Not on the Pentagon. Not on the unaware American people. Trump has only the “deplorables,” and they are unorganized and will experience retribution once Trump is removed.
In striving to come to an agreement with Washington, Putin and Lavrov are butting their heads against a stone wall. Sooner or later Putin and Lavrov will have to acknowledge that. Once Putin and Lavrov realize the true situation, they will understand that war or surrender is their only option.

No. It’s not a brick wall. Don’t forget the people. Well you haven’t forgotten them but you’ve said they can’t be relied on, that they’re unorganised and just the ‘deplorables’.
But they never were just the deplorables and organisation today with our ‘social media’ can happen like quora sensing amongst bacteria, in a flash.
And don’t forget the world. They, the people of the rest of the world, may not save America but they’re observing and learning. Not the masses, no. But a percentage and that small percentage represents millions of people, millions.
They’re learning the truths of today which are only the truths of forever after all: that the masses are led by the nose into suffering and even killing each other by unscrupulous minorities, tiny minorities and that lies, lies, lies are all they’re fed on.
This is a good thing. It represents the people of the world becoming aware.
I admit its only a tiny good thing – it is still very possible that we could be urged into murdering ourselves by the millions but lets look on the positive side.
The word hasn’t even gotten out yet, the meme doesn’t exist, there is no slogan, there’s no mutterings in the pubs, no comedians playing with it – but it could come at any time ‘they take us for fools and we kill each other for nothing..’
All these criminal absurdities bring it closer I think. I hope.
Trump should clearly be allowed the opportunity to have open talks with foreign governments. Period.
What should be heavily scrutinized is where the president affords to make personal financial gains on those meetings.
Yet it is many of those same pundits, on the right, that lambasted the opposition for even thinking of doing the same thing. Obama would have been shredded by the conservative base had he done exactly what Trump did with North Korea. The chants of “Appeasement” and “Treason” were used with issues of much less weight.
I don’t believe the Russia nonsense. The DNC’s lack of allowing a proper investigation of their server makes me dismiss the evidence as hearsay and move on. This supposed same “liberal” media is also the same media that gave more free air time to Trump than any other candidate in the 2016 election. That is also the same media that uses hot button topics at election time and drops them when the ballots are counted.
What is likely happening now is an attempt by the GOP to purposely lose control of the congress only to gain it back in 2020 which will allow them to redistrict the country after the census.
As far as you contention that Nixon was set up by the Deep State is rather absurd considering the massive amounts of evidence that was done at Nixon’s own hand. The Deep State did not induce Nixon to break into Fielding’s office. The Deep State did not run a slush funds. The Deep State did not use campaign contributions to fund a break in and cover up. Nixon was his own undoing.
JFK had a multitude of factors working against him. Be it the Deep State, clearly, or the powers that run the financial system (which funds the Deep State). There are multiple conspiracies in US history. Yet not everything has to be a conspiracy of the Deep State.
If Trump is undone it should be due to his blatant corruption of using the system to enrich himself at taxpayers expense. It should not be for trying to make peace. But when those peace overtures come at the personal financial gains of the supposed peacemakers then the motive is clear to see. This goes for both parties. I am currently speaking of North Korea where this administration sees many financial opportunities.
But the nail in the coffin is those supporting these efforts now how would not support them under previous administrations. Yet the last oddity of Trump is how he is supposed to be against the Deep State. If this is true why did he back out of the 7 (seven) nation Iran Deal? Why is he fomenting rage in Southwest Asia by moving the US Embassy to Jerusalem? If Trump is so opposed to the Deep State why is he borrowing nearly ONE TRILLION DOLLARS each year over the next years plus this one? If he is so anti-Deep State and a man of peace why did he escalate things in Syria? Why did he order the Yemen Strike only days into his first term in the White house? There is a lot of evidence that would truly show Trump is not a man of peace. This argument would be sustained in a legal argument given Trump’s own history in his first 18 months in office.
End Comment.
Tom in Korea is a drooling, incoherent Marxist moron.
That is all.
