Truth2Freedom's BlogThere are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn’t true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true. —Soren Kierkegaard. "...truth is true even if nobody believes it, and falsehood is false even if everybody believes it. That is why truth does not yield to opinion, fashion, numbers, office, or sincerity--it is simply true and that is the end of it" - Os Guinness, Time for Truth, pg.39. “He that takes truth for his guide, and duty for his end, may safely trust to God’s providence to lead him aright.” - Blaise Pascal. "There is but one straight course, and that is to seek truth and pursue it steadily" – George Washington letter to Edmund Randolph — 1795. We live in a “post-truth” world. According to the dictionary, “post-truth” means, “relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief.” Simply put, we now live in a culture that seems to value experience and emotion more than truth. Truth will never go away no matter how hard one might wish. Going beyond the MSM idealogical opinion/bias and their low information tabloid reality show news with a distractional superficial focus on entertainment, sensationalism, emotionalism and activist reporting – this blogs goal is to, in some small way, put a plug in the broken dam of truth and save as many as possible from the consequences—temporal and eternal. "The further a society drifts from truth, the more it will hate those who speak it." – George Orwell “There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn’t true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true.” ― Soren Kierkegaard
I’m wondering why no one is bringing up the fact that Bill Clinton interfered with Russia back in 1996, and bragged about it.

Why were the Russians giving any money to the Clinton campaign??

They weren’t. It’s Americans who made money in Russia and who then donated to Clinton. Bill Browder is apparently no longer a citizen though he was born in the USA but the Zipp brothers (or whoever is named in that) are. Putin alleges that they didn’t pay taxes. So, he’s saying it might be legal but it’s unethical. They allege something like identity theft by Russian gov officials. Their lawyer, Sergei Maginitsky (sp?) was killed. I forget how it is connected to the Prevezon case but it should be in my blog. It seemed that the Prevezon case would have broken open the whole Trump Russia thing if it had gone to trial but it was quashed by Trump admin. Uranium One, by the way, was done by Republican lobbyists – BGR group which is Haley Barbour’s consulting firm, though ultimately Obama and Obama only could have stopped it. The lobbyist for the CFIUS at BGR group was Rademaker who later moved to the consulting firm of the brother of Hillary’s campaign manager.

The Russians had nothing to do with it. American citizens gave to the Democratic party and Mrs. Hillary Clinton, and no one is checking her out and all her emails. I’m starting to believe that it was Hillary that was in bed with Russia, that’s why Obama didn’t bother to stop it, and Russia tried but failed,so it backfired on her and Trump won.

Still reading this but it says that the FBI got what it needed. So, you have to choose who you believe. https://www.thedailybeast.com/trumps-missing-dnc-server-is-neither-missing-nor-a-server

Hillary isn’t president and as long as Trump is she’s an irrelevant diversion. Trump’s environmental policies speak for themselves. We are also assuming that Obama even likes Hillary. And Putin says he preferred Trump. Where Obama and Trump are both dirty is not truly sanctioning Russia and allowing Exxon to keep operating there and still buying oil and gas. There are degrees of badness. It’s not like the US or Europe were perfect in WWII, they were just better than Nazi Germany. Canada is really bad on mining, etc., but I think they are still better than Russia. Frankly I don’t want the US to be a colony of Russia and Putin’s environmental record speaks for itself. Trump is a professional liar, as is Putin. Their whole goal is to confuse people and so unless you have time to fact check everything they say at all times, it’s better not to even listen, in my opinion. Same thing for pro-Trump media. Fox is owned by Trump’s old friend Murdoch, as is WSJ; Washington Examiner is owned by an oil and gas man. Hard to get reliable news. At the very least it is important to balance extreme right with other media. Are you so certain that the FBI doesn’t have her so-called missing emails or that they are really missing? They don’t tell everything as we know. At some point you choose who you believe – Trump and Putin or the FBI, etc.

I’m trying to get all the facts Without A Reasonable Doubt. You’re right, unless I want to fact check everything I read and here, it’s best to not to listen, and most people have already picked a side so it really doesn’t matter what I think anyway. I’m just a regular citizen trying to find out who all the guilty parties are. Sorry for upsetting you.
