Psychopath Putin and his gang of thugs warned the countries of Europe that they were fair game if they supported Ukraine against Russia. It’s happening. Expect more. The West is in a state of war against Putinesque Russia, Islam, China, and now the wandering man in the White House.
Russia’s mafia boss, Vladimir Putin, has fooled many stupid (allegedly conservative) people in the West by presenting himself as a defender of Russian culture and traditional morality. There can be no greater delusion. Putin is a monster, a harpy sprung from the pits of hell, a character from Dante’s Inferno. The evidence is there in full sight.
Donald Trump has turned out to be just as great a fraud. By parading as a super conservative with the right rhetoric, he convinced enough Americans to vote him in for a second term. The fraud revealed itself when he turned against Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Ukraine to support his nasty little Russian mate, Putin. Not only is Trump a fraud, but he is the worst sort of traitor, selling his country for his thirty pieces of silver.
There was a time when a traitor like Trump would be bumrushed to the closest tree for the traitor’s reward. That won’t happen because the law he so often abuses still stands. So, after the midterms, when the Republicans get their just deserts, the House should rush through the impeachment process to get rid of their traitor once and for all, and then turn their arms on the international madman who is threatening the world.
It is astounding that some people in the West, who consider themselves to be conservative, have publicly supported Russian President Vladimir Putin, seeing him as the defender of Christian Civilisation. I cannot imagine a greater delusion. Putin, far from being the defender of Christian values and the Christian religion, is a psychotic monster who controls a vast mechanism of lies and political manipulation. Below is an interview with Sean Wiswesser, author of a recent publication about Russia’s intelligence service. I have the book and highly recommend it.

Tradecraft, Tactics, and Dirty Tricks: Russian Intelligence and Putin’s Secret War by Sean Wiswesser
‘As a member of the CIA’s expert cadre in the Directorate of Operations, Wiswesser worked closely with the US intelligence community and foreign allies to recruit Russian spies and then work to counter their services, giving him a unique perspective on the Russian Intelligence Services’ (RIS) global reach. With his new book Tradecraft, Tactics, and Dirty Tricks: Russian Intelligence and Putin’s Secret War Wiswesser takes readers deep into the heart of Maskirovka—the Russian art of denial, deception, and manipulation. In this program, Spy Museum Historian, Dr. Mark R. Jacobson interviews Wiswesser about the shadowy world of Russian espionage from “street work,” honeytraps, and assassinations, to the RIS’ roles in the Russo-Ukraine War. They discuss both historical examples and firsthand accounts of the tactics employed by the three main services of Russia’s intelligence apparatus: the SVR, GRU, and FSB.’
