Day 405 – What does Putin Want? I’ll Tell You

Friday, February 25, 2022

I find it hard to believe that all the talking heads are asking what Putin wants.

Have they forgotten recent history?

Let’s review:

Ukraine was under the control of a Russian puppet dictator, who got thrown out.

However, when he was in power there was a huge scandal about Ukraine’s gas company.

There was a Russian fellow who had a job at that gas company.

No one knew what he did other than to skim money off the top and pocket it.

He got arrested in Italy. Bail was, I believe, $160,000,000.00.

He wrote a check and left for Austria where he has been ever since.

This is the same guy that Giuliani’s pals Igor and what’s his name were at Dulles Airport when they got arrested were going to go see. So was Rudy.

He has been linked to various cash infusions into our elections. Remember Rudy’s buds put lots of money into Trump’s election? Illegally.

This fellow in Austria is tied closely to Putin and that money gives Vlad a slush fund to finance stuff.

Let’s also remember that Trump’s Secretary of Commerce was on the board of a bank in Cyprus that was laundering money for the Russians and he himself was implicated in those transactions. Also, Paul Manafort, Trump’s campaign manager, was laundering money for the Russians via New York real estate deals. During the campaign he was known to have shared internal polling with a Russian agent.

That Ukrainian Gas company hired Joe Biden’s son to try and get close to the Obama administration and to clean up their image. Biden went over to Ukraine to bolster support for that gas company to act more legitimately and to bolster the army (after said dictator was overthrown.)

So some say this is complicated. I say Really? What’s complicated?

Putin wants  a government in Ukraine that fauns over him that he can control. He wants to be able to skim money off any Ukrainian gas deals. He wants to return to the Soviet hegemony.

There are two people who seem to know what to do, and what they are talking about. One is Colonel Vindman, and the other is Hillary Clinton. Vindman wrote a piece in the Atlantic outlining what could be done and the opportunities the United States missed to help the Ukrainians. 

It would have been polite of Joe Scarborough to have let Vindman tell us what he would suggest rather than interrupt him and  prattle on about what he, Scarborough, thought Vindman was saying, and never give him a chance to say what he would have done and what we should do, but that’s not what he did. Like he does ever day to Mika he interrupted and talked over. This was especially impolite because the question Scarborough asked was what could the U.S. have done. Would have been good to hear a person who his spent his life studying this give us his opinion.

At least Joe shut up long enough to let Hillary speak. Remember Hillary said she would stand up to Putin? Yeah, not like that whiney bitch in Mira-la-Traitorvile or his former Secretary of State.

Oh and then a certain Media channel who has the word News in their name, yet isn’t, was quick to call out Biden before the invasion for fomenting a giant scam and saying how it wasn’t true and wasn’t going to happen. Then the next day when the invasion happened they said he hadn’t been strong enough in his response.

Classy.
