Mainstream media claims it’s a crime to investigate Hillary Clinton’s ties to Russia

As the public has finally began to realize the extent of the corruption surrounding Hillary Clinton, including the now infamous Russia Uranium One deal, the mainstream media has gone into hyper-drive to discredit and distract from documented facts and are now going as far as to float the idea that Trump may be committing a crime for simply investigation Clinton at all.

A key instrument is...

De-dollarization is a key principal of the concept of Resistance Economy President Putin arrived in Tehran on 1 November for talks with the Ayatollah Khamenei. First, to cement the Nuclear Agreement of 2015 (Vienna), as far as Russia is concerned, thereby sidelining Trump’s attempt at reneging on the agreement.

Kenneth Rapoza – One Year After Russia Annexed Crimea, Locals Prefer Moscow To Kiev

There was a bit of Putin bashing in the Guardian today and a reader replied criticizing Russia's invasion of Crimea. He also mentioned Putin's 'oligarchs'. I wrote this below.    Where are the pictures of Russian tanks and soldiers marching into Crimea? Not even the US can produce any with its amazing satellites of mass surveillance which can track our every move. Spooky or what?  The Russians get free health care unlike in the US where the oligarchs scam the public.           From...

Paul Robinson — Interview with Mikhail Remizov

Backgrounder. It's longish, so save it for weekend reading. It is the best analysis of Russian conservatism I have run across. They discuss the economy near the end. The beginning is Rusian history and the middle is Russian politics. Russian public opinion is more sovereigntist, more conservative than the Russian government. Most Russians are not raging liberals clamoring for universal rights, freedom and democracy, and internationalism. They are first and foremost Russians, for whom the...
