  Interesting theory along the lines of Scott Adams, who has pretty consistently been proved correct by events and who Armstrong cites. (All real theories must be falsifiable; let's see in a year's time whether the US is more entangled or less entangled.

Good summary of the witch hunting to date. While he doesn't use the McGovern "soft coup" to characterize what is happening, he implies it. It's really about Trump rather than Russia. The US deep state has always had it in for Russia and won't rest until the US controls it, this is really aimed at neutralizing the president and continuing the effort to remove him from power. Perhaps you saw "news" reports last week calling William Binney, formerly the NSA's technical director for world...

You might call Cotton, who is now being touted as the next director of the CIA, the “Trump whisperer.” In fact, according to the Weekly Standard, in a recent meeting with his top national security and foreign policy advisers, “having failed to receive the decertification option from his own team, Trump called Senator Tom Cotton and put him on speakerphone.
