    The only reasonable explanation for recent political events is that the leaders of Bizarro World have reached through the singularity of a black hole to invade our dimension.

    The Sate Dept has been doing things on behalf of the oil industry well over 50 years. Do you really think the government would give 2 sh-ts about Syria if they didn’t have oil and strategic placement for oil pipelines??? It’s just now more blatantly obvious.

    Czar Putin desperately wants the Obama sanctions lifted. And even though he has high approval from the Russian public, the economy is in shambles and the kleptocrats want to go eat fois gras in Mayfair The new Secretary of State will undoubtedly try to accommodate the Czar. Who wouldn’t? It was Czar Putin who help elect the sociopathic narcissist with ADHD, after all.

    With Putin pulling the strings that control the Trump.. that nomination was a foregone conclusion. Enjoy that $5.00 / gal gas that is just around the corner.

    The Globalist Agenda depends upon the

    Merger of Capitalism and Communism

    .

    In order to bring about global governance it is imperative that communism and capitalism be merged into a new system where economic control remains and is concentrated in private hands and social control is based on collectivism. As established by a U.S congressional investigation headed by Senator Norman Dodd into the great foundations back in the 1960’s, this was in fact one of the main purposes for which the foundations were created.

    I heard that Tillerson is going to put Exxon into a blind trust, to be run by his sons Uday and Qusay.

    .

    And Dick Cheney will be interim CEO.

    Much like coastal Nigeria, the Caspian Sea, Lake Maracaibo, and many other places where the “awl bidness” rules.

    Conservative pundit Jonah Goldberg: Of course Donald Trump thinks it’s “ridiculous” to claim the Russians rigged the election for him.

    Even if Vladimir Putin confessed to the crime on Russia Today, Trump would not believe it, because to do so is not in his nature. I do not want to shock the reader, but Trump has a very high opinion of himself and a tendency to reject evidence that contradicts that opinion, combined with an eagerness to find corroboration of his self-regard wherever possible. For instance, during the campaign he could never concede that online polls weren’t scientific, because the results of these polls confirmed that Trump was terrific, fabulous and tremendous.

    So there was nothing shocking about Trump’s behavior over the weekend.

    “Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace asked, “According to the Washington Post, the CIA has concluded that Russia intervened in the election to help you win the presidency. Your reaction?”

    Trump’s response:

    “I think it’s ridiculous. I think it’s just another excuse. I don’t believe it. I don’t know why, and I think it’s just — you know, they talked about all sorts of things. Every week, it’s another excuse. We had a massive landslide victory, as you know, in the Electoral College. I guess the final numbers are now at 306. … No, I don’t believe that at all.”

    See? Wallace asked about a news report about a reported CIA finding, and Trump heard, “You didn’t really win the elections because of Russia.” (FYI, Trump’s Electoral College victory ranks as the 46th biggest — out of 58).
