Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Thursday, November 28, 2024

Elon Musk on Wednesday suggested retired Army Lt. Col Alexander Vindman "committed treason" and "will pay" after the former Trump impeachment witness accused the tech billionaire and close Trump ally of being unwittingly used by Russia.

"Clearly Putin has a type. He likes narcissists and egomaniacs that he knows as a case officer can easily pander to manipulate, to do his dirty work," Vindman said in the late October interview circulated online by X users this week.

"Russia has been using different levers " whether that's corruption networks, in this case, its influencers like Donald Trump, like Elon Musk, to kind of sow discord."

The Wall Street Journal reported last month that Musk had been in regular contact with Putin since late 2022. Putin and Musk reportedly had various conversations on personal matters, business and geopolitical tensions, while sometimes involving other high-ranking Russian officials, including Putin's first deputy chief of staff, Sergei Kiriyenko.

Vindman said Musk's interactions with Putin are "particularly troubling" since the tech entrepreneur has access to state secrets and "Top Secret security clearance."

"It's possible that some of that is seeping through," Vindman said, adding, "He's [Putin] been using the richest man in the world to do his bidding. In some cases, that's encouraging him probably to support Donald Trump."

Musk's aerospace company, SpaceX, holds contracts with the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community worth billions of dollars, while his electric vehicle company Tesla receives federal subsidies.

The tech entrepreneur has reportedly claimed he holds a U.S. security clearance as part of these federal agreements."

But do keep trying. Maybe it will keep someone else out of the maga hate barrel for a while.

The wife of a former White House staffer who once stood as a witness against Donald Trump has sparked outrage after appearing to mock an apparent second assassination attempt targeting the former president.

Following the thwarted attack over the weekend, Rachel Vindman took to social media site X (formerly Twitter) to post a jovial statement downplaying the event.

"No ears were harmed. Carry on with your Sunday afternoon," she wrote, apparently referencing the first attack on Trump's life, which saw him sustain a head injury when gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire at a Pennsylvania rally in July, killing one spectator and wounding two others.

Vindman, a podcast co-host, is married to Alexander Vindman,

"Senate panel finds Russia interfered in the 2016 U.S. election

(AP) " The Trump campaign's interactions with Russian intelligence services during the 2016 presidential election posed a "grave" counterintelligence threat, a Senate panel concluded Tuesday as it detailed how associates of Donald Trump had regular contact with Russians and expected to benefit from the Kremlin's help.

The nearly 1,000-page report, the fifth and final one from the Republican-led Senate intelligence committee on the Russia investigation, details how Russia launched an aggressive effort to interfere in the election on Trump's behalf.

It says the Trump campaign chairman had regular contact with a Russian intelligence officer and says other Trump associates were eager to exploit the Kremlin's aid, particularly by maximizing the impact of the disclosure of Democratic emails hacked by Russian intelligence officers.

The findings, including unflinching characterizations of furtive interactions between Trump associates and Russian operatives, echo to a large degree those of special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation and appear to repudiate the Republican president's claims that the FBI had no basis to investigate whether his campaign was conspiring with Russia.

Trump has called the Russia investigations a "hoax.""

The "failed to find a criminal conspiracy" assertion has been a MAGA deflection attempt since the Mueller Report was issued.

Key Findings of the Mueller Report
www.acslaw.org

... Special Counsel Robert Mueller's testimony before Congress represents a critical opportunity for the legal community to help the American people understand what is in his March 2019 Report On The Investigation Into Russian Interference

In The 2016 Presidential Election. The following summary presents key findings from the Mueller Report and is intended to help lawyers and other concerned citizens speak and write about the Special Counsel's findings in an informed manner. ...

The Special Counsel investigation uncovered extensive criminal activity

- - - The investigation produced 37 indictments; seven guilty pleas or convictions; and compelling evidence that the president obstructed justice on multiple occasions. Mueller also uncovered and referred 14 criminal matters to other components of the Department of Justice.

- - - Trump associates repeatedly lied to investigators about their contacts with Russians, and President Trump refused to answer questions about his efforts to impede federal proceedings and influence the testimony of witnesses.

- - - A statement signed by over 1,000 former federal prosecutors concluded that if any other American engaged in the same efforts to impede federal proceedings the way Trump did, they would likely be indicted for multiple charges of obstruction of justice.

Russia engaged in extensive attacks on the U.S. election system in 2016

- - - Russian interference in the 2016 election was "sweeping and systemic."[1]

- - - Russia also targeted databases in many states related to administering elections gaining access to information for millions of registered voters.[4]

The investigation "identified numerous links between the Russian government and the Trump Campaign" and established that the Trump Campaign "showed interest in WikiLeaks's releases of documents and welcomed their potential to damage candidate Clinton"

- - - In 2015 and 2016, Michael Cohen pursued a hotel/residence project in Moscow on behalf of Trump while he was campaigning for President.[5] Then-candidate Trump personally signed a letter of intent.

- - - Senior members of the Trump campaign, including Paul Manafort, Donald Trump, Jr., and Jared Kushner took a June 9, 2016, meeting with Russian nationals at Trump Tower, New York, after outreach from an intermediary informed Trump, Jr., that the Russians had derogatory information on Clinton that was "part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump."[6]

- - - The Report described multiple occasions where Trump associates lied to investigators about Trump associate contacts with Russia. Trump associates George Papadopoulos, Rick Gates, Michael Flynn, and Michael Cohen all admitted that they made false statements to federal investigators or to Congress about their contacts. In addition, Roger Stone faces trial this fall for obstruction of justice, five counts of making false statements, and one count of witness tampering.

- - - The Report raised questions about why Trump associates and then-candidate Trump repeatedly asserted Trump had no connections to Russia.[9] ...


etc., etc., etc... The article goes on ...

Because your mind is on vacation and your mouth is workin' overtime

Near unlimited resources spent trying to prove a criminal conspiracy and it all failed.

But enough about Hunter's laptop.

Sounds like a foreigner making a threat against an American citizen. Time to deport him but only after we seize his assets.

That aspect of this scenario has crossed my mind ...

You clowns are SO desperate. It's hilarious. I don't even like Trump. But your collective obsession and constant rage volume up to 11 (out of 10) over predictions - the I've that haven't even happened - is hilarious.

Mating call of the Trump humper.

Sure you do. At least own it.

@#80 ... It's hilarious. ...

So, your current alias has nothing to contribute besides an apparent begging for attention?

Good to know.

The only way you clowns can engage first requires assigning a false position that you can attack.

It's so lame.

@#85 ... It's so lame. ...

So... projecting, yet again?

And I will note that your current alias has not posted a real contribution to this thread since, well, a long while.

So, this "clown" has to ask, why is your current alias here?

Xymox - Imagination (1989)
www.youtube.com

Lyrics excerpt...

genius.com

...
I have come to indecision
Someone is pushing me
All the cities, subways, rivers
No direction left for me

I have lost my way home early
I don't care cause I won't stay there
All I hear is this silent whisper
Will you be here again?

[Chorus: Anka Wolbert]
Imagination takes the shadows away
Every day I've been without you
Imagination keeps the shadows away
Every day I stay without you
Too many times -- without you

...

Again and again, Ive been escaping
I've been lost in the dark I fear
Can you hear this silent whisper
Will you be here again?

...

Choose and change, you say
How can you let this run away
See the storms through your broken window
See the beauty of the falling rain, I say
Every day I've been without you
Every shadow follows me
Can't you see you left your traces
In too many faces

...

Who the hell does Musk think he is? Nobody elected his ass. He should go back to South Africa and stay out of our affairs. He's power-drunk, incredibly ill-informed and filled with spite. He's going to be a major problem.

He (Musk) is planning to replace Vance as the #1 GOP shoo-in in 2028.

Right now he's just trying to make his bones.

Mueller spent a year and a half spending tens of millions of dollars and failed to find a criminal conspiracy.

The investigation produced 37 indictments; seven guilty pleas or convictions; and compelling evidence that the president obstructed justice on multiple occasions. Mueller also uncovered and referred 14 criminal matters to other components of the Department of Justice.

Trump associates repeatedly lied to investigators about their contacts with Russians, and President Trump refused to answer questions about his efforts to impede federal proceedings and influence the testimony of witnesses.

Russian interference in the 2016 election was "sweeping and systemic."

Major attack avenues included a social media "information warfare" campaign that "favored" candidate Trump[2] and the hacking of Clinton campaign-related databases and release of stolen materials through Russian-created entities and Wikileaks.

Russia also targeted databases in many states related to administering elections gaining access to information for millions of registered voters.

The Mueller Report states that if the Special Counsel's Office felt they could clear the president of wrongdoing, they would have said so. Instead, the Report explicitly states that it "does not exonerate" the President[10] and explains that the Office of Special Counsel "accepted" the Department of Justice policy that a sitting President cannot be indicted.

Those are the FACTS.

#13. You are clinging to a hoax cooked up by the Clinton campaign and pushed by Obama, and then his holdovers which was then amplified to the nth degree by our Pravda news media.

It's is beyond worn out.

Funny how those arguing with you never want to talk about this

www.cnn.com

"Federal election regulators fined Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee earlier this month for not properly disclosing the money they spent on controversial opposition research that led to the infamous Trump-Russia dossier."

"The dossier was compiled by retired British spy Christopher Steele. It contained unverified and salacious allegations about Donald Trump, including claims that his campaign colluded with the Kremlin to win the 2016 election. Trump's campaign had numerous contacts with Russian agents, and embraced Russian help, but no one was ever formally accused of conspiring with Russia. "
