  • The Trump-Russia Collusion Case
    The Trump-Russia Collusion Case Updated to August 2020 Source: http://www.scaruffi.com/politics/trumptraitor.html For those who have been following this page for a while: my main target is not Trump, my target is Putin. Putin, not Trump, is the most dangerous person in the world. Trump is just a lackey, a small-time crook and bit-time liar whom Putin is using to attack the USA. The problem is not that there is no evidence of Trump-Putin collusion, the problem is that there is too much of it. I have added some background about the motive of Russia's interference in US politics. In my opinion, it was not only a general attempt at undermining US institutions (that came later) but originally it was a determined effort to make sure that Hillary Clinton did not become president. Putin feared her more than anyone else. For those who have NOT followed this page from the beginning: this website was one of the first to talk about the Trump-Russia collusion at a time when few dared mention the Steele dossier. Just to be very clear: this is not about whether Russia's interference changed the results of the election (i personally think that the FBI investigation into Clinton's email server had a much bigger impact). It is about Putin's strategy to attack the USA, and, secondly, it is about the extent of Trump's collaboration with Putin. And, just to be fair, Putin's Russia is not the only country that ever interfered in US politics.

  • Quid Pro Quo Redux, Part One: the Trump Tower Dangle
    QUID PRO QUO REDUX, PART ONE: THE TRUMP TOWER DANGLE Last May, I wrote a series using the questions (as imagined by Jay Sekulow) Mueller had posed to Trump to lay out what theory of investigation Mueller might be pursuing — and what details we know about it. We’ve learned a lot more about the investigation and confirmed that the investigation focusing on Trump personally includes both a criminal and a counterintelligence component. I wanted to update the series. Because we know so much more about both sides of this quid pro quo, the organization of the series will be somewhat different. November 9, 2013: During a 2013 Trip To Russia, What Communication and Relationships Did You Have with the Agalarovs and Russian Government Officials? On November 9, 2013, Aras Agalorov helped Trump put on Miss Universe in Moscow; Trump Tower meeting attendees Rob Goldstone and Ike Kaveladze were both involved, as were Don Jr, Michael Cohen, and Keith Schiller. If the pee tape — or any kompromat involving “golden showers,” as Jim Comey claims Trump called it — exists, it was made on November 8, 2013. The prior trip set up the 2016 quid pro quo in several ways. First, it deepened Trump’s desire for a Moscow Trump Tower — an effort the Agalrovs and Trumps pursued for years after the meeting. It established Trump’s enthusiasm for Vladimir Putin — though Putin reportedly disappointed Trump’s desire for a meeting on that prior occasion. It also introduced Trump to a bunch of other oligarchs. Just after Trump kicked off his presidential bid, Emin invited Trump to his father’s birthday party in Moscow on November 8 (PDF 17), the first of a series of outreaches during Trump’s campaign which would continue through the election.

  • There Are No “Statute of Limitations” on FRAUD!
    There Are No “Statute of Limitations” On FRAUD! Part 5 I suggested in Part 4 that “Q” might not be what many have been led to believe. In my article “God Promised to Expose Evil in the Last Days – Part 7” it was revealed that Donald Trump was recruited by high-ranking generals and admirals in the U.S. military to run for the office of President in 2016. He was given assurance for his family’s safety as well as his own safety. At least 14 attempts have been made to date on his life and they were thwarted by the Marine Corp security, the Secret Service, and his private personally paid security. The most recent attempt on the President’s life was just before Christmas, 2018 when a U.S. Marine from the White House Marine Detail was shot and killed by Marine Corp security, as the President was hurried down an elevator to the White House command center several floors below. As interest has grown in the “Q” posts and drops, there have been rebuttals on the Internet, claiming something to the effect that “Q” is a psyop scam. I’m not surprised by the sudden interest in refuting “Q” and the “Q” posts and drops. Neither am I surprised by the efforts to refute or dismiss any of “Q” posts. In line with this attack, certain sites are posting alleged statements by Hillary Rodham Clinton, giving the appearance that she is still active. At Christmas, 2018, both the Clinton’s and the Obama’s posted strange posts with older images that had been taken when they were in the White House.

  • Mueller Report Searchable Part 04
    U.S. Department of Justice Attorney-Work // Proteeted-Tnder appears to have been involved in an April 2016 approach to a U.S. congressional delegation in Moscow offering “confidential information” from “the Prosecutor General of Russia” about “interactions betweencertain political forces in our two countries.” Shortly after his June 3 call with Emin Agalarov, Goldstone emailed Trump Jr.** The emailstated: Good morning Emin just called-and asked me to contact youwith something very interesting, ‘The Crown prosecutorof Russia met with his father Aras this moming andin their meeting offered to provide the Trump campaign with someofficial documents andinformation that wouldincriminate Hillary and herdealings with Russia and would be very useful to yourfather.

  • Image of the Other. Academic Dialogue in the Post-Soviet Space
    Image of the Other. Academic Dialogue in the Post-Soviet Space Joint project of the Institute of Education Development and Kennan Institute (Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars, Washington D.C.) Fall 2018 – Winter 2019 The project goals and objectives The project aim is to respond to the above needs and to mobilize the scholarly community for combatting the spread of xenophobia, ethnic, cultural, gender and other forms of intolerance manifested through use and abuse of the image of the Other. Public goal of this project is the representation of balanced, scholarly grounded approach, unbiased mode of thinking and impartial style of the speech addressing highly controversial and politically manipulated problems and issues related to use and abuse of the image of ‘the Other’. The project was focused on three major objectives: 1. To organize large scale systemic research effort aimed at: a) analysis and deconstruction of cultural, social, ethnic, gender, racial stereotypes (this will begin with an identification of current events, the analysis of which promises to yield a deeper understanding of a larger set of similar events.) b) analysis and deconstruction of political strategies, discourses, manipulative technologies aimed at creation, use, misuse and abuse of the image of ‘the Other.’ (Since the process of imagining ‘the Other’ is familiar human tendency that does not in every instance result in violence and repression, the analysis will also seek to identify situations of multicultural contact and coexistence that exemplifies living with difference.) c) creating forums for the expression of opinion and articulating attitudes of international scholarly communities on these issues, in communication with civil society – independent media, scholarly circles, non-governmental organizations.

  • The Sater and Cohen Deal Gets Handed Off to Millian and Papadopoulos?
    JULY 22, 2016: THE SATER AND COHEN DEAL GETS HANDED OFF TO MILLIAN AND PAPADOPOULOS? Last night on TV, Anthony Cormier said that the negotiations between Michael Cohen and Felix Sater actually continued into July, but that the later discussions were on encrypted chats that got deleted. We know that Sater was at Trump Tower on July 21, 2016, because he bought some campaign swag that showed up in FEC filings. (h/t Andrew Rice on Twitter) Sater told POLITICO he was unaware he had exceeded the maximum contribution. Informed that purchases of campaign paraphernalia count as contributions, Sater said he had bought campaign merchandise in the basement of Trump Tower last month. He said he made two $2,700 contributions to the Trump campaign online through his iPad. The purchase of campaign merchandise and two contributions for $2,700 each are all dated July 21 in the FEC filing. That same day, George Papadopoulos signaled something to Ivan Timofeev about Trump’s RNC speech. “How are things [Timofeev]? Keep an eye on the speech tonight. Should be good.” The next day is almost certainly when Sergei Millian first started cultivating Papadopoulos. Millian’s cultivation of Papadopoulos likely explains this reference in the affidavit supporting Papadopoulos’ arrest, showing Papadopoulos asking Ivan Timofeev over Facebook on July 22, 2016 for any information he had on someone he was about to meet for the first time (see my timeline here). “If you know any background of him that is noteworthy before I see him, kindly send my way.” That would say that, on the same day WikiLeaks released the DNC emails — which itself took place a day after Papadopoulos signaled something about Trump’s RNC speech to Timofeev — Millian started cultivating Papadopoulos, who apparently had started spending more time in NYC.

  • The Russian Chronologies July - September 2009 Dr Mark a Smith
    Research & Assessment Branch The Russian Chronologies July - September 2009 Dr Mark A Smith 09/13 RUSSIAN DOMESTIC CHRONOLOGY JULY 2009 – SEPTEMBER 2009 1 July 2009 The head of the commission for the Caucasus and first deputy speaker of the Federation Council, Aleksandr Torshin, criticises the assessment of the situation in the North Caucasus made by the human rights organization Amnesty International. 1 July 2009 President Dmitry Medvedev speaks at a state reception for graduates of military educational institutions in the Kremlin. He discusses military reform. 1 July 2009 Deputy Prime Minister Sergey Ivanov discusses with Vladimir Putin the development of seaport construction. Ivanov states: In 1998-99, of the total volume of import and export operations, 75 per cent of our cargoes were shipped through foreign ports, mostly Ukrainian and Baltic ones, and only 25 per cent through Russian ports. Now the proportion is as follows: 87 per cent of all cargoes are already shipped and processed through Russian ports, and only 13 per cent through foreign ports. I think that's fairly good dynamics, and in the foreseeable future we will completely get rid of dependence on foreign ports. This is very important from the economic point of view, and of course additional jobs. 1 July 2009 The head of the Rosnano state corporation Anatoly Chubays addresses the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs innovation policy committee. He discusses the need to develop an innovative economy in the Russian Federation. 1 July 2009 Interior Minister Rashid Nurgaliyev says that alcohol abuse or poisoning causes each fifth death in Russia.
