President Trump and Ali Khamenei, Supreme Leader of Iran

The fascist Trump regime is humanity greatest threat, its imperial rage endangering world peace and stability.

It's in full anti-Iran regime change mode. On Sunday, DJT disgracefully raged against Iranian President Rouhani, saying:

"We will not accept threats. "They'll bring us closer. Don't twist the lion's tail. You will regret it" - Trump tweeting in caps for emphasis saying:

"To Iranian President Rouhani: NEVER, EVER THREATEN THE UNITED STATES AGAIN OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE."

"WE ARE NO LONGER A COUNTRY THAT WILL STAND FOR YOUR DEMENTED WORDS OF VIOLENCE & DEATH. BE CAUTIOUS!"

Who's on the right side of major world issues and who supports might over right. Make your own judgment.

On Sunday, neocon extremist Pompeo delivered an imperial anti-Iran address, titled Supporting Iranian Voices the Trump regime doesn't give a hoot about.

He launched a broadside against Iranian sovereign independence, part of a campaign to stoke unrest in the country, aiming to topple its government.

Comment: Without fail, every time the US speaks on how 'evil' this 'regime' or that 'dictator' is, they always do an excellent job at describing themselves. See also:

Nancy Pelosi suffers facial spasm when saying 'constitution', brain glitches when bashing Trump

Things have not been going well lately for House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi.

During a news conference on Monday, the California Democrat suffered a bizarre face spasm when trying to say "Constitution," and malfunctioned several times when attempting to attack President Donald Trump over Russia.

"Our oath to protect and defend our country from all en- and our Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic," Pelosi told reporters with a few colleagues standing behind her.

She went on to say Trump has to "stand up to Putin for his depa- attacks," stuttering and taking long pauses before continuing on her tirade.

Comment: She is apparently degenerating, but from what?

Hypocritical democratic socialist Ocasio-Cortez counts big bank, private equity firm among top donors

Democratic socialist and Congressional candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez may rail against the evils of capitalism in her stump speeches, but her campaign, it seems, has been happily cashing checks from big banks and Wall Street private equity firms.

According to Open Secrets, Ocasio-Cortez's top donors are "Justice Democrats" - a Democratic socialist national organization - and the Soros-funded activist arm, MoveOn.org. But among her top ten donors are "big bank," J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., and Elevation Partners, "an American private equity firm that invests in intellectual property and media and entertainment companies."

Comment: A hypocritical socialist - what a surprise.

'Novichok' survivor Charlie Rowley is in a "safe house" but has been denied access to television and newspapers, according to his brother. The ever-stranger case of the Salisbury-Amesbury poisonings gets curiouser and curiouser.

Whoever said 'Novichok' was a "military-grade lethal nerve agent" doesn't know their tables.

For a program which Boris Johnson told us had been 10 years in the making, had cost (presumably) millions of dollars to develop (and "train" agents to put poison on a doorknob), a 20-percent success rate must have been a bitter disappointment.

Four out of five of those affected by 'Novichok' - Sergei and Yulia Skripal, Detective Sergeant Bailey, and Charlie Rowley - have survived the contact, with only poor Dawn Sturgess, a homeless alcoholic, succumbing to its "deadly" effects.

US politicians and media talk of Iran regime change as if it's their divine right

US President Donald Trump's dire warning to Iran has renewed debate within American news media about whether his administration is seeking regime change in Tehran or merely using threats as a psychological weapon.

Embedded in the US public discourse is the arrogant assumption that Washington has the right to pursue regime change against any nation it chooses. For the American ruling class and its media echo chambers, it is tantamount to a "divine right" - an unquestionable mission with which Americans are "blessed."

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo earlier this week talked about how America was doing "God's work" in reaching out to Iranian people to encourage the overthrow of their "mafia regime."

"To our Iranian American and Iranian friends, tonight I tell you that the Trump administration dreams the same dreams for the people of Iran as you do," said Pompeo. "And through our labors and God's providence, that day will come true."

The most dangerous man in the world? How Bill Browder's greed helped spark a new Cold War

The darling of the war party needs to answer some questions

At the press conference following their summit meeting in Helsinki, Russian President Vladimir Putin and American President Donald Trump discussed the possibility of resolving potential criminal cases involving citizens of the two countries by permitting interrogators from Washington and Moscow to participate in joint questioning of the individuals named in indictments prepared by the respective judiciaries. The predictable response by the American nomenklatura was that it was a horrible idea as it would potentially require U.S. officials to answer questions from Russians about their activities.

Putin argued, not unreasonably, that if Washington wants to extradite and talk to any of the twelve recently indicted GRU officers the Justice Department has named then reciprocity is in order for Americans and other identified individuals who are wanted by the Russian authorities for illegal activity while in Russia. And if Russian officials are fair game, so are American officials.

Comment: Alex Krainer has also investigated Bill Browder and felt the weight of his legal wrath.

Bolton: Trump delays second Putin summit until 2019

US President Donald Trump has decided to postpone the next meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin until sometime in 2019, after the 'Russia witch hunt' ends, national security adviser John Bolton said.

"The president believes that the next bilateral meeting with President Putin should take place after the Russia witch hunt is over, so we've agreed that it will be after the first of the year," Bolton said in a statement referring to the probe led by Special counsel Robert Mueller.

Comment: More details will undoubtedly follow.

Obama admin implicated in shutting down investigation into stolen weapons tech sold to US enemies

Influential Obama administration officials have been accused of shutting down an FBI investigation into the theft of U.S. stealth defense technology.

A bombshell report by True Pundit revealed that former FBI Director Robert Mueller and former Attorney General Eric Holder colluded with James Comey, who was at the time a general counsel for Lockheed Martin, to shut down an FBI investigation into the international theft of U.S. stealth defense technology from a small Florida company.

The company had developed proprietary technology to protect nuclear submarines and Navy shops from being seen on sonar and radar. After a thorough nearly three-year FBI investigation into the theft, and on the eve of the case being presented to a grand jury, Mueller and Holder unscrupulously closed the case.

"This was the original pay-to-play scheme and it involves Mueller, Holder, (James) Comey and (Hillary) Clinton," Steve Morton, inventor and owner of a rare robotic ship and submarine stealth painting technology that can help make the U.S. Navy's fleet invisible on radar and sonar, told True Pundit.

Comment: New revelations about our favorite criminals in high places - could it get any worse? Betting it can and has, given the furious counterforce aimed at the president and Russia as in 'look there not here'.

SC nominee Kavanaugh comes knocking but Dems won't meet with him

Many Senate Democrats have refused to hold the traditional meet and greet events with Supreme Court nominee Judge Kavanaugh, arguing they have not received all of the millions of pages of documentation related to Kavanaugh's time working in the Bush White House.

Their shut out could ultimately delay the confirmation process and has prompted a threat from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., to keep the Senate in session until Election Day if that time is needed to confirm Kavanaugh.

Republicans want to confirm Kavanaugh by Oct. 1, which is the start of the next Supreme Court term. To show they mean business, Republican leaders have said they won't adjourn for all-important campaigning this fall if Kavanaugh isn't on track to making that deadline.

"We will stay here until the bitter end, up to the elections on Nov. 6," Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn, R-Texas, said Monday. "That would be the consequence of dragging this out for no good reason. But we will vote on his nomination before the midterm election."

Kavanaugh has been making the rounds in the Senate nearly every day since Trump nominated him on July 9. He's sat down with nearly two dozen senators, but all were Republicans.

Comment: If the congressmen were paid to nurse their egos and thwart congressional business and responsibilities by vindictive delay tactics and erroneous excuses, then they would be well worth their expense. Not the case.

They're fixing everything: Senators Menendez and Graham to draft a bipartisan anti-Russia bill

RT

Senators Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) and Bob Menendez (D-New Jersey) are working on a draft law that would impose sanctions on Russian sovereign debt and demand Senate approval for US quitting NATO, among other things.

The two senators announced on Tuesday they will be introducing the new sanctions law "to ensure the maximum impact on the Kremlin's campaign against our democracy and the rules-based international order."

The US must make it clear it will "not waver in our rejection of [Russian President Vladimir Putin's] effort to erode western democracy as a strategic imperative for Russia's future," Graham and Menendez said.

Although the bill is still being drafted, Graham and Menendez said it would include:

increased sanctions on Russian energy and financial sectors, "oligarchs and parastatal entities" and on sovereign debt as well as sanctions against "cyber actors in Russia."

It will also establish a National Center to Respond to Russian Threats and a sanctions coordinator office at the State Department, demand reports on implementing the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA), and authorize financial aid to "bolster democratic institutions across Europe to defend against Russian interference."

Last, but not least, the bill would impose a Senate approval requirement for US withdrawal from NATO.

Comment: The 'do nothing' Congress is 'now doing stuff' whether needed or not. Go figure. Given the public has fewer delusions than the politicians they support, perhaps, come elections, there will finally commence an ousting of wing nuts and the perennially entrenched.
