i told the old d&d russia thread that john bolton used russiagate to stage a comeback when he had to be forced out of washington with his tail between his legs ten years ago and was called a complete loon since of course everyone knows that bolton is terrible and its not like his appointment could have been blocked anyway

Rachel Maddow becoming (or always having been) completely insane has been one of the more interesting Trump-era things. My vague perception of her prior to Trump was just of her being a kinda decent left-leaning liberal commentator.

really the only difference between her and her mentor's insanity is that Keith Olbermann hadn't had an audience even before Trump won

After watching his post-election meltdown video, I'm assuming Keith Olbermann's mentor was William Shatner?

I wonder what Keith Olbermann's take on the whole Mueller fallout has been anyway. He was the panickiest pete of all the deranged Russiagate fearmongers. But it seems like he blew a gasket in 2017 and just couldn't take reporting on politics anymore so he dropped out. Probably a smart move. Did he see the writing on the wall?

Olbermann did a whole youtube video series called "The Resistance" that was sponsored by GQ, but it lost steam sometime in 2017

Progressives in 2019: Trump realizing destroying Venezuela will be the end of his Presidency with his base somehow translates to DIRECT EVIDENCE of Tom Clancy Manchurian candidate bullshit. Does this fat gently caress even remember that Trump won the primaries in part because he was talking mad poo poo about the Bush family and neocon wars in general? Does he not remember the reaction his base had when he bombed Syria? It still amazes me how Trump can make supposedly smart people completely lose their minds like this. ffs Jimmy Dore left TYT just in time. TYT foreign policy positions have been loving awful for years now anyway.

I've got a friend who is a Russian communist (lives in Siberia) and he's super knowledgeable about Cold War eastern bloc. needless to say, the dude is not fond of putin at all, and his reaction when I show him how our media talks about Russia is usually a mix of amusement and disgust.

also, friendly reminder that Russia has an economy about the size of Texas.

something about the color scheme and orientation of the heads in these is deeply annoying

You have to admit it's still less insane than the Q-Anon style conspiracies diagram. Also "reversal into an authoritarian state"? That's a really optimistic take on Russia under Boris Yeltsin.
