The “Russian-hack-of-DNC-emails” canard was shot quite dead on Dec 5, 2017 in sworn House testimony by 'CrowdStrike' head Adam Schiff hid it for 29 months, then was forced to make public on May 7, 2020, SIXTEEN MONTHS AGO. Please, someone tell the NY Times

Amy Goodman and her Russiagate go-to "expert" Marcy Wheeler take cue from NYT, MSNBC, WashPost, and Lanny Davis on “stunning” Manafort and Cohen convictions, which throw NO light on “Trump-Russia collusion.” But NYT editors call you a "complete fantasist," if you can't see it.

Surprise! Russia has given advanced ICBM to North Korea. White House flummoxed; not yet able to craft Memo to Media as to how to handle. I just briefed the judge on this based largely on work of Ted Postol, Prof Emeritus, MIT.

SHAME ON THE CHURCH'S SILENCE ... and other indignities. With the familiar lack of moral leadership, it is UP TO US. Let's not limit ourselves to rhetorical empathy/platitudes or -- like the Germans -- acquiesce with sheepish submissiveness. Ray with Nima:

From the sublime to the ridiculous: From Camus, Socrates, Aquinas, Chrysostom, Medea Benjamin & Ann Wright to Blinken, Austin, and Armed Services Committee Senators arrogantly misguided, completely corrupt, or both. Ray includes them all on Dialogue Works.

Tanks but No Tank: $10k throwaway Russian drone destroys $10-million US Abrams tank arriving late to the party, as VIPS predicted. BUT NOT TO WORRY: The money for producing still more tanks good for WWII “stays here, creates jobs”.

To a Australian MP of conscience, Andrew Wilkie @wilkieMP : You spoke out and quit Aussie Intel over the fraudulent intelligence BEFORE the attack on Iraq. Once again, THANKS for standing on principle. A politician with the guts to support countryman Assange. Your old friend, Ray

MUST WATCH Assange persecution by UK vassal of US explained in 4 min by Glenn Greenwald; suggests that Trump summon the guts to “pardon” both Julian and Snowden, and show that the President is in charge — not the "Deep State"
