Well, it turns out that — surprise! surprise! — the entire case against Joe Biden was built on the testimony of one “trusted FBI informant” and it turns out he was only trusted by Putin and the Russians, not the FBI which ARRESTED HIM FOR LYING. Not only did he lie to his fellow FBI officers, it turns out he had been meeting with high-level Russian intelligence officers.
So Trump refuses to even mention Putin in connection with the assassination of Navalny, but tries to compare himself to the poisoned, arrested, imprisoned and finally murdered freedom fighter. Navalny spoke against Russian corruption and it cost him a poisoning, a hard-labor sentence in a Russian gulag and ultimately his life. Meanwhile, Donald Trump calls judges names, disrupts court hearings, incites his cult worshippers to threaten judges, prosecutors and witnesses, but remains free to travel openly, campaign openly, speak his lies openly (anywhere but under oath or to defame), play as much golf as he wants, eat as much cholesterol-laden junk food as his obese body can absorb. Yeah, hard to tell the difference between how Trump and Navalny have been treated.
::: rolling eyes :::
Meanwhile, Tucker Carlson goes to Russia, completely distorts comparisons between Russia and the U.S. to paint a fraudulently rosy picture of a Russia under Putin that is better than the U.S. under Biden, and has an “interview” so dripping with sycophancy that even Putin later ridicules it as not being serious, and the Trump/Putin cult worshippers lap it up.
The whole Mob of insurrectionists in Congress (both House and Senate) should be arrested, charged with Sedition, and barred from Ever holding any office Whatsoever for the rest of their lives. And they should Also have to surrender their pensions and all Other benefits they have accrued from their time in office; one should not get to draw benefits from the system one strove to overthrow.
Alexander Smirnov admitted the bribe allegations regarding the Bidens and Burisma were done at the direction of Russian intelligence services as well as directives to spread misinformation before the ’24 elections.
Ted Rall had no comment on this matter. I’m not expecting him and Scott Stantis to address it on their podcast. They’re not big on owning their mistakes, just too many to cover, really.

Large response (impeachment charges against Biden) based on one unreliable source? Sounds a lot like Bush taking us to war in Iraq based on one unreliable source claiming weapons of mass destruction. Also sounds like Trump claiming to win the election. When will Republicans ever get a reliable source? Maybe when they dump Fox as their source.
Jordan and Comer ‘either duped by Kremlin-linked informant or they were in on it’:
A former FBI informant was charged with making false claims in the Hunter Biden investigation, with the Department of Justice linking him to Russian intelligence. Now legal experts are saying that the fallout over the development could have major repercussions for Ohio GOP Rep. Jim Jordan.
Informant Alexander Smirnov admitted in interviews with the Justice Department that he had met with Russian intelligence officials who were “involved in passing a story” about Hunter Biden. As Newsweek points out, claims that President Joe Biden financially benefited from his son’s business dealings were cited by Jordan and others in their impeachment inquiry of the President.
Smirnov is accused of lying to the FBI about Biden and his son being paid $5 million each in bribes from Ukrainian energy company, Burisma. If it’s found that the source of those claims was Russian intelligence, the backlash on Jordan and other Republicans could be huge, experts said.
In a post to X, former New York Assistant Attorney General Tristan Snell said “Jim Jordan, Chuck Grassley, and James Comer were either duped by Smirnov and the Kremlin — or they were in on it.”
“Either way, DOJ must subpoena every single communication Jordan, Grassley, and Comer had with or about Smirnov and anything related,” Snell added.
Besides being a criminal who helped to cover up sexual assaults, besides being involved in the insurrection, Jordan is almost legendarily stupid. And, of course, a coward. The same for the rest of the Biden hunters. (See what I did there?)
When the paid trolls spend months talking about how the entire Trump Russia investigation was made up, that should’ve been the clue that this whole Biden investigation was made up. All Republicans have is projection. Comer should resign. Jordan should already be in jail so this is just more criminal activity.

Kind of odd how The Disciples have been so silent about the $5 million bribes for the Bidens.
Trying to pretend it never happened — like Trump stealing money from children who have cancer.
