Dueling Conspiracies (Part 2)

Pelosi’s Impeachment-signing pens

To expand on my previous post on this subject:

The timing of these Lev Parnas revelations ... and the Rachael Maddow interviews ... were obviously timed to coincide with the start of the impeachment trial in the Senate. So, one side of this duel obviously includes the lefty media. One can imagine Nancy Pelosi on the podium orchestrating her side of this Trump hanging like a nervous Toscanini ... and her audience is obviously not the Senators ... it is the American voters. Very sophisticated ... and conspiratorial. (Just heard that, on impeachment day, the “impartial” Congressional GAO declared that Trump’s hold on Ukraine aid for 55 days was illegal — another coordinated event?)

Would Lev Parnas lie? Of course, he is Ukrainian after all ... in tact, definitely! Would the lefty media mislead us about him? Have you noticed that he and Igor Fruman’s indictments reporting seldom mention the time of their alleged money laundering and improper political donations? March of 2018 ...well over a year before Zelensky was elected president of the Ukraine ... pledging to reform this country’s rampant corruption ... see: Indictments. These misdeeds also occurred well before these two reprobates were working with Giuliani ... again ignored by most of the media.

I think I will reluctantly watch the Rachael Maddow show tonight. Stay tuned ...

Dueling Conspiracies


My liberal lunch buddies asked me today that, if Trump, or Giuliani as directed by Trump, wanted to have former Ukraine Ambassador Marie Yovanovich killed, would I be in favor of removing Trump from office? My answer, “Of course.”

Where did this newest Trump-derangement conspiracy theory come from? Apparently, all my lib friends have already totally swallowed this bait, hook, sinker, line, reel and rod. So I am forced to try to plumb the web to find any possible facts behind this newest mudball. (Has anyone noticed that the syncopated timing of these anti-Trump revelations from Adam Schiff ... drip, drip, drip ... to me, seems very suspicious and conspiratorial.)

I first went to the Snopes truth-tellers site ... see: Snopes Discussion ... nothing but a bland, biased AP  story. Next I emailed my lunch buddies for help and got back these three references: The Hill, The Intercept and Palmer Report ... all of which I read (with difficulty). And, in order to follow this discourse, I’m afraid you should too.

The key player in this melodrama is an Ukrainian named Lev Parnas. Above is a snippet from his interview with Rachael Maddow. I didn’t know to watch the whole thing ... but a lunch buddy did and here are his comments:
Just saw Rachael Madow interview with Lev Parnas.  He implicates Giuliani, Trump, Pence and even Barr in the circle of conspirators who were trying to get Zelinski to open a Biden investigation.  No explanation for why Ukraine never made the desired announcement. 
As for the Ambassador, Parnas apologized  to Ambassador Yovanovich for his role in getting her fired for blocking the Biden probe. Important to note:  Parnas says the Hyde threats were never taken seriously, as Hyde was "constantly drunk."Thus he discredits the report that she was in danger.
His reason for singing now:  He is under indictment for improper campaign contributions.  Maybe he hopes cooperating in this affair will help him get an easier sentence.  He implies that the more info becomes known, the safer he will be.  (Think Epstein).
Except for suggesting that Trump would kill Parnnas, pretty fair minded. More in another post.

October Surprises


Midterm elections are coming! One can reasonably be sure that the Democrats have one or more tapes or documents that impinge once more on President Trump and his supporters in hopes of flipping the House of Representatives to the party of Alexandria Ocasio Cortez. Once this happens then impeachment is on the calender and the leftover FBI/DOJ/CIA scandals will be covered up like cat poop in a litter box. With the assistance of most of the media, the hope will be that any pol aligned with Trump will become radioactive and drown in this blue wave.

So, one must expect lots of juicy dirt to come sloshing on the scene sometime in early October ... maybe a picture of a tumescent Trump in his birthday suit or a set of urine-stained Russian sheets ... or  perhaps the fact that Ivanka is a hermaphrodite ... or that Baron Trump is not Donald's son ... anything goes.

Not so fast Ms. Maddow and Mr. Acosta ... the Donald is still awake and aware. What could he do to insure that his supporters are elected and reelected? There is one thing he might carry off to reverse this donnybrook ...  he could declassify all the pertinent DOJ, FBI, CIA and Obama White House document that tell the sordid story behind the deep state's efforts to keep him from being elected and, once elected, to emasculate him and subvert his agenda. There are rumors that these documents are already going through declassification ... so don't be surprised if this does in fact come about.

Of course, since the media are likely to ignore such bombshells, the Trump team will still have the problem of getting this message to the American people. Leaks might work ... maybe through  Acosta and the New York Times? Or perhaps using Trump's tweets and rallies ... but this would be a logistical  challenge due to the complexity of the message. 30 minute political ads on the major networks? Or how about even an air drop of leaflets over key voting districts? Trump is clever ... he'll find a way.

The $10 Bill


The United States has decided to replace or diminish Alexander Hamilton's visage on the $10 bill ... see: Breitbart Story. And since this a decision was made by the Obama administration, may I assume that this new replacement portrait will be of a liberal feminist? (Wouldn't that be special!) Assuming so, let us weigh some of the options:

- Susan Sarandon
- Jane Fonda
- Gloria Steinem,
- Rachel Maddow
- Hillary Clinton
- Sheila Jackson Lee
- Monica Lewinsky
- Michelle Obama
- Candy Crowley
- Rachel Dolezal
- Barbara Walters
- Barbara Boxer
- Oprah Winfrey

Enough already!

I know, I know ... the woman selected to replace (or diminish) Hamilton is supposed to be deceased.  However, since the replacement might not happen until 2020, it is certainly conceivable that, by then, one or more in the above list may no longer be vertical..
