He&#8217;s been sending messages in the clear, for quite some time, that he would do precisely what he is doing now.</p>
<p>As a reminder:</p>
<p>Chechnya was reincorporated into Russia, under President Clinton, 1999 &#8211; 2000, where the start of the war bolstered the domestic popularity of Vladimir Putin as the campaign was started one month after he had become Russian Prime Minister. That conflict greatly contributed to the deep changes in Russian politics and society.</p>
<ul>
<li>Putin invaded Georgia, in 2008, under George Bush.</li>
<li>Putin annexed Crimea, in 2014, under Barack Hussein Obama.</li>
<li>Putin did nothing under President Trump for four years.</li>
<li>Putin invaded Ukraine under Biden, 2022</li>
</ul>
<p>Anything in common? Quite indeed. Three Demorats &#8212; and one RINO who exploded government, exploded bureaucracy, exploded spending, and never met a Demorat he didn&#8217;t hug and kiss on the cheek. Or perhaps he was merely attempting a subtle effort to determine if Michelle Ma Belle had real instead of pneumatic breastules. Only he knows for certain.</p>

<p><span style="color: #008000;">The U.S. military attacked a <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.cnbc.com/id/10000306">Syria</a>-government airfield with 59 Tomahawk missiles on Thursday evening.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;">The missiles targeted the Shayrat air base near Homs, and were in response to a Tuesday chemical weapons attack. Officially announcing the strike, President <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.cnbc.com/donald-trump/">Donald Trump</a> said the targeted airfield had launched the chemical attack on a rebel-held area, and he called on other nations to oppose Syria’s embattled leader.</span></p></blockquote>

Using a deadly nerve agent, Assad choked out the lives of helpless men, women and children. It was a slow and brutal death for so many. Even beautiful babies were cruelly murdered in this very barbaric attack,” Trump said Thursday night.</span></div>

<p>You know, the guy who loves Russia.</p>
<p>You know, the guy by whom the FBI discovered <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/fbi-finds-no-clear-link-between-trump-and-russia-report/"><span style="color: #0000ff;">no link between Trump and Russia</span></a>.</p>

<p><span style="color: #008000;">The FBI found no clear link between Donald Trump and Russia, despite allegations by an intelligence agent that Moscow groomed the Republican presidential nominee for years as an asset and a report<a style="color: #008000;" href="http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/cover_story/2016/10/was_a_server_registered_to_the_trump_organization_communicating_with_russia.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> that</a> computer scientists uncovered a private line of communication between the Trump Organization and a Moscow bank owned by a Russian-Israeli businessman.</span></p>

<p>You know, the guy who, in fact, we discovered the opposite was true. When Donald Trump said he was &#8220;wiretapped,&#8221; we found that &#8212; as I had been writing and saying since 2017 &#8212; that what we witnessed was a <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong><em>soft coup against a presidential nominee, a president-elect and, now it is revealed, a sitting president.</em></strong></span></p>

<p><span style="color: #008000;">The indictment against Sussmann, says he told then-FBI General Counsel James Baker in September 2016, less than two months before the 2016 presidential election, that he was not doing work &#8220;for any client&#8221; when he requested and held a meeting in which he presented &#8220;purported data and &#8216;white papers&#8217; that allegedly demonstrated a covert communications channel&#8221; between the Trump Organization and Alfa Bank, which has ties to the Kremlin.`</span></p></blockquote>
<p>So it appears that Trump &#8212; the proverbial Conspiracist himself &#8212; turned out to be correct. On this and many other topics. For another day.</p>

<p>And of course no one on the major American Media Maggots list covered that. Not the New York Times. Not the Washington Post. Not ABC, NBC, CBS, not the moribund CNN or MSNBC. Imagine that. And these asshores have the guts to accuse YOU of creating Fake News or reading Fake News. <em>They aren&#8217;t <strong>even</strong> news.</em></p>
<p>The American Media Maggots &#8212; and the public &#8212; also <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2021/11/04/durham-probe-analyst-tied-to-christopher-steele-trump-russia-dossier-arrested.html"><span style="color: #0000ff;">conveniently forgot about this</span></a>:</p>

<p><span style="color: #008000;">by Dan Mangan and Kevin Breuninger, 11-4-21, CNBC</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #008000;">An analyst who contributed research to a dossier that detailed alleged ties between former President Donald Trump and Russia during the 2016 election was arrested.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #008000;">Igor Danchenko, the analyst, was charged in a grand jury indictment with five counts of making false statements to the FBI about the so-called Steele dossier during interviews with agents in 2017.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #008000;">The arrest was part of an ongoing probe by special counsel John Durham, who was appointed during the Trump administration to investigate the roots of the Trump-Russia investigation.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #008000;">Steele’s controversial dossier on Trump became the basis for the application of an FBI warrant to tap the phone of former Trump campaign advisor Carter Page a month before Election Day in 2016</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;">Steele’s inquiry was funded by the firm Fusion GPS, which itself had been hired by the Democratic National Committee to conduct opposition research on the then-Republican candidate Trump.</span></p></blockquote>
<p>I find it interesting that <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/obamas-crimea-putin-russia-ukraine-biden-china-xi"><span style="color: #0000ff;">this comparison is now being made</span></a>.</p>

<h1 class="headline"><span style="color: #008000;">Obama&#8217;s weak Russia policy emboldened Putin to invade Ukraine, and Biden&#8217;s is emboldening Xi: MSNBC guest</span></h1>
<p><span style="color: #008000;">by Yael Halon, Fox News, 2-22-22</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;">MSNBC guest Hagar Chemali said on the network Tuesday that former President Obama&#8217;s evasive foreign policy emboldened <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/vice-president-kamala-harris-sanctions-absolutely-deter-putin-made-up-mind-invade-ukraine" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Russian President Vladimir Putin</a> to invade Ukraine, and that <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.foxnews.com/category/person/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">President Biden&#8217;s</a> handling of the <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-russia-sanctions-troop-movements-ukraine-invasion" target="_blank" rel="noopener">current crisis</a> will likely have a similar effect on Chinese President Xi Jinping in future years.</span></p></blockquote>
<p>Because it&#8217;s no secret that Xi Jinping wants, like Hong Kong, to bring Taiwan and its massive manufacturing abilities to heel directly for China.</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: #008000;">&#8220;When he saw a relatively weak response from the Obama administration at the time for something so brazen, for taking territory, I think to him that was a message of okay, great, this is something I can continue to do with little recourse,&#8221; Chemali told guest host John Heilemann.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;">&#8220;The bottom line is, he’s going to see that he can behave this way as a thug and get something out of it,&#8221; she said.</span></p></blockquote>
<p>Let&#8217;s not forget this quote from a <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/08/14/obama-biden-relationship-393570"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Politico piece</span></a>:</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: #008000;">One Democrat who spoke to Obama recalled the former president warning, “Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to fuck things up.” Speaking of his own waning understanding of today’s Democratic electorate, especially in Iowa, <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2019/11/26/barack-obama-2020-democrats-candidates-biden-073025" target="_blank" rel="noopener" aria-label="Obama told one 2020 candidate (opens in a new window)">Obama told one 2020 candidate</a>: “And you know who really doesn’t have it? Joe Biden.”</span></p></blockquote>
<p>One of many <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">BZ</span> Axioms</strong></span> goes like this: &#8220;The best predictor of future behavior is past performance, or the lack thereof.&#8221;</p>
<p>See Joe Biden.</p>
<p>It all dovetails. And recent events began on Tuesday, February 22nd, when Russian forces began moving into Ukraine &#8212; though Russian troops and armament had been <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russian-buildup-ukraine-border-includes-blood-wounded-us-officials-say-2022-01-28/"><span style="color: #0000ff;">near the Ukrainian border since late January</span></a>. Coincidence?</p>

</blockquote>
<p>Now we know the invasion is full underway, and Putin is himself receiving pushback on some fronts I suggest he didn&#8217;t anticipate.</p>
<p>As opposed to what some Leftist individuals, groups, or outlets are bleating, Ukraine is not a Democracy or a Republic; it&#8217;s a unitary state where all the power rests with the government. It was a client state of the USSR until 1991, and its parties are socialist, Marxist-Leninist in true nature.</p>
<p>Another truth is that Ukraine has been the Wild West of the Wild East. With the right connections, money, power, and influence, corruption knows no bounds. Transactions are conducted here that enrich the Biden and Clinton Crime Families, in just one ready example.</p>
<p>Of most recent interest was the now mostly forgotten (except BZ, who has a semblance of memory left and access to what&#8217;s left of internet archives) Biden interchange, in 2019, about Ukraine.</p>
<p><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/UXA--dj2-CY" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p>And now that we&#8217;re talking about Russia, and now that we&#8217;re talking about Ukraine, we&#8217;re also now talking about sanctions, the impact of what could have been avoided &#8212; what didn&#8217;t occur under the four years of President Trump, for example &#8212; and what results we can expect now.</p>
<p>One of them, I suspect, will be cyberattacks from Russia. Likely aimed at various forms of infrastructure, the electric grid, oil, energy. <span style="color: #0000ff;">This has already occurred</span>.</p>

<p>But it did so anyway. You know. Just to see.</p>
<p>And whilst we&#8217;re on the subject of reminding certain personnel &#8212; Leftists &#8212; about history, let&#8217;s replay this exquisite cut which, like wine, only gets finer with age.</p>

<p><span style="color: #008000;">by Justin Andress</span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><em><span style="color: #008000;">Robin Speronis has been living &#8220;<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a class="inline_link omniture-click-processed" href="http://www.examiner.com/topic/off-the-grid"><span style="color: #008000; text-decoration: underline;">off the grid</span></a></span>&#8221; for nearly two years. The <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a class="inline_link omniture-click-processed" href="http://www.examiner.com/topic/cape-coral"><span style="color: #008000; text-decoration: underline;">Cape Coral</span></a>, <a class="inline_link omniture-click-processed" href="http://www.examiner.com/topic/florida"><span style="color: #008000; text-decoration: underline;">Florida</span></a></span> resident hasn&#8217;t used the city&#8217;s water or electrical services for months, as she prefers to, in her own words, &#8220;live without being dependent on the system.&#8221; Most people would find that mindset acceptable, if not outright admirable, but the &#8220;system&#8221; in question has it&#8217;s own ideas.</span></em></p>
<p dir="ltr"><em><span style="color: #008000;">For most of us, living &#8220;plugged in&#8221; is the only option we&#8217;d ever consider. We rely on the established methods for our power and water, the Internet, our phones, and our healthcare. For a large part of her life, that was the case for Robin Speronis. Then, her husband was diagnosed with a degenerative illness that changed everything.</span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="color: #008000;">&#8220;I finally educated myself and went completely natural. When Zenny died in 2010 at the age of 84, he hadn&#8217;t seen a doctor in 6 years and had been off of all meds for 7 years and, more importantly, he was clinically healthy (just very weak) and extremely happy. That is the subject of my first book, &#8216;My Love Was Greater Than My Fear.&#8217; So, getting what I call today &#8216;off-grid&#8217; from the healthcare was so empowering and so rewarding that after Zenny died, I wanted to do that for the rest of my lifestyle &#8211; not be dependent.&#8221;</span></em></p>
<p>Stop right there.  This is either a woman who is actually walking and talking the true energy independence walk and talk &#8212; just in the vein of a good Leftist.  In the vein of a good Conservative, she is eschewing dependence on government and attempting to be self-sufficient.  To &#8220;not be dependent.&#8221;</p>
<p>But here&#8217;s where <strong>B</strong>ig <strong>G</strong>overnment and <strong>L</strong>eftists take over:</p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em>Late last year, Speronis was interviewed by her local Fox affiliate about her lifestyle. The piece ran on the local news and was spotted by city officials who took issue with Speronis&#8217; way of life (and in her refusal to pay taxes for services she didn&#8217;t use). The day after the interview, the city of Cape Coral voted to evict Speronis for living in an uninhabitable property &#8211; something they determined without actually stepping foot inside her house.</em></span></p>
<p>Bingo!  <em>There&#8217;s</em> the issue: <strong>money</strong>!</p>
<p>But wait; it gets more ridiculous:</p>
<p dir="ltr"><span style="color: #008000;"><em>“A code enforcement officer came, knocked on the door then posts a placard that says uninhabitable property, do not enter,” Speronis told the <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.opposingviews.com/i/society/florida-city-evicts-widow-living-grid" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><span style="color: #008000; text-decoration: underline;">Fox affiliate</span></a></span> in a followup report.</em></span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span style="color: #008000;"><em>Along with the eviction notice, Speronis was charged with a laundry list of offenses that amounted to her not paying the city fees for utilities she didn&#8217;t need or want. Among the offenses leveled against her were several violations of the <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://publicecodes.cyberregs.com/icod/ipmc/index.htm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><span style="color: #008000; text-decoration: underline;">International Property Maintenance Code</span></a></span>, which &#8211; in this context [strike] &#8211; essentially requires inhabitants to hook their utilities up to either the available public systems or an approved alternative.</em></span></p>
<p dir="ltr">Because the government knows <em>better</em> than you do.  Despite the government and energy companies <em>telling</em> you &#8212; no, <em><strong>demanding</strong></em> &#8212; that you use less and less energy.</p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em>When asked about how expensive or inconvenient a life &#8220;off the grid&#8221; would be, Speronis&#8217; answer is surprising. &#8220;Going off the grid in an urban setting was easy and inexpensive,&#8221; she explains. &#8220;I lived 7 months in an RV in the woods, so I had all the basic skills. I cut my energy needs down to next to nothing, so I only need two portable solar panels, (under $100 each), and two marine batteries, (again under $100 each) as a battery bank and two inverters, (under $100 each), to supply all my power needs and more. I do not have a regulator on my batteries, so my biggest problem is that sometimes I over-charge my batteries and will affect the life of the batteries.&#8221;</em></span></p>
<p>Speronis decided to fight back.  She created a blog and located an attorney who took her case <em>pro bono.  </em>And a smidgen of bright light emerged:</p>
<p dir="ltr"><span style="color: #008000;"><em>Fast forward to last Thursday, <a href="http://www.news-press.com/article/20140224/NEWS0101/140224030/Off-grid-resident-Cape-Coral-has-sewer-capped" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><span style="color: #008000;">February 20th</span></a>, when Special Magistrate Harold Eskin ruled that the majority of charges brought against Speronis were meritless. Her alleged infractions against the city&#8217;s power grid and sewage systems were summarily dismissed. In fact, Eskin ruled that Speronis was only guilty of not having her water hooked up to an approved public alternative (Speronis uses filtered rainwater). The city further accused her of using the city&#8217;s drainage system without paying for it, an accusation that has left Speronis thousands of dollars in debt with liens on her home.</em></span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span style="color: #008000;"><em>“This resident provided testimony at the code compliance hearing that she has been living in the home for the past year and using the city’s wastewater system without paying for the service,” said Connie Barron, spokeswoman for the city of Cape Coral. “She also gave clear indications she does not intend to pay for this service but intends to continue to use the system. We really had no choice but to cap the sewer.”</em></span></p>
<p dir="ltr">So here comes the puerile and babyish riposte.</p>
<p dir="ltr"><span style="color: #008000;"><em>And cap it they did. Yesterday morning, city officials cut off Speronis&#8217; access to the city&#8217;s sewage system for refusal to pay her bills. Speronis, however, remains resilient, &#8220;I know how to live off the grid completely and I have the tools in my home to do it so on that level it is no big deal.&#8221;</em></span></p>
<p>So her benevolent local government, in its now clear and obvious <em><strong>vindictive and petty reaction</strong></em> &#8212; as Speronis dared to point to an Emperor <em>sans</em> clothes &#8212; cut off her sewer connection <em>because it could</em>.</p>
<p>The government said: &#8220;you can&#8217;t pick and choose your independence, because that will create a chink in armor of our span of control.&#8221;  And:</p>
<p>&#8220;Damn you for attempting any modicum of independence, you bitch, we&#8217;ll show you,&#8221; her local government clearly stated in its reaction.</p>
<p>Speronis emphasizes my precise point:</p>
<p dir="ltr"><span style="color: #008000;"><em>While she&#8217;s certainly prepared to deal with the city&#8217;s newest tactics, Speronis was quoted by many outlets calling the move, &#8220;pure evil.&#8221; We asked her what she meant by such a strong assertion.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em>&#8220;I wasn&#8217;t upset that they capped the sewer as much as upset that the city is still out for vengeance. I had hoped that over the last three plus months that I and my many supporters across the globe were able to touch the city and maybe change them a little to being servants of the people instead of cruel dictators. And that is why this move on the city&#8217;s part was such a &#8220;blow&#8221;. Looks like we haven&#8217;t touched them at all &#8211; how disappointing. Remember, the definition of evil is the intention to do harm and evil, just like good, can only manifest itself through people. I honestly believed that we had touched some good in the hearts of some of the city officials. Looks like we didn&#8217;t.&#8221;</em></span></p>
<p>Your government is becoming more of an enemy than a friend, or even a partner of sorts.</p>
<p>This is simply another in a continuing series of local, state and federal government stories emphasizing that government no longer serves people &#8212; government believes <em>your</em> job is to serve <strong>it</strong>.  A <strong>B</strong>ig <strong>G</strong>overnment that is too taken with itself and its power.</p>
<p>Energy independence?  That isn&#8217;t the point.   At <em>all.  </em>Whatever happened to fundamental fairness?  What happened to having empathy for the citizen?  And what happened to the basic tenets of conservation and minimization demanded by government itself of it citizens?</p>
<p>Leftists again and <em>again</em> don&#8217;t want the American public to achieve independence of <em>any</em> sort, economical, societal, technological or cultural.  They have proven this time and again with their acrimonious and bitter reactions to any form of pushback or endeavor to seek self-sufficiency.  Speronis sums up wonderfully:</p>
<p><span style="color: #008000;"><em>She is committed to living her life on her own terms, regardless of what trials she must face. &#8220;[The] lesson is shine your light, live your life the way you see fit, ignore the &#8216;terror,&#8217; don’t be afraid and the &#8216;evil&#8217; goes poof. The light always puts out the dark. Love never fails. And honestly, at such times when you stand your ground, it actually becomes fun to watch &#8216;evil&#8217; go poof.&#8221;</em></span></p>
<p>It&#8217;s time for some line-drawing and limit-setting for government on all levels.  And evil, these days, <em>can</em> and <em>does</em> in fact come in some forms of government.  Especially government that thinks its job is for <strong>us</strong> to serve <strong>it</strong>.</p>
