We need alternate political parties. Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog presents another look at the ugly hoax (or maybe I should say Big Lie) about Trump collusion with Russia. Even some Democrat reporters over the years covered how false that story was (see below). No matter how much I despised George W Bush or Barack Obama, for instance, I wrote multiple blog posts about how ridiculous it was when people claim Bush planned the 9-11 attacks or that Obama was “a Muslim sleeper agent.”
Trump haters seem incapable of any rational thought when it comes to him, though. For years now every aspect of the “Russian Collusion” nonsense has been debunked and traced to Hillary Clinton campaign “opposition research” (the euphemism in America’s corrupt political system for manufacturing stories about rival candidates). Even veteran Trump hater Russell Brand has done multiple YT videos acknowledging that Trump never colluded with Russia and that the Hillary Clinton campaign was behind that misinformation.
At any rate, the latest developments in the ongoing investigation of the perpetrators of the Russian Collusion hoax prompted news stories around the world, including Australia.

And, to quote from Democrat reporters who have covered what a hoax the entire Russian Collusion nonsense was …
From December 16th, 2019:
ROLLING STONE REPORTER MATT TAIBBI, who is very anti-Trump, has once again risen above his own feelings – like reporters are SUPPOSED TO DO – and pointed out that the IG report actually verified the claims made by Congressman Devin Nunes and President Trump himself about the FBI’s political assault on Trump. Taibbi’s Rolling Stone piece shows how damning the IG report was for the FBI, Schiff and the Democrats’ media outlets. “Democrats are not going to want to hear this” are the most appropriate words in his article.
In a previous article, Taibbi (like Sharyl Attkisson one of the few actual “journalists” left in the country) pointed out that the “Russian Collusion” nonsense was “WMD’s times a million” (CLICK HERE ).
Now, in his latest article, Matt points out how the anti-Trump forces need to stop deluding themselves that there isn’t something deeply wrong at the FBI and with the entire FISA process. The link is below, but first some excerpts:
“Horowitz describes at great length an FBI whose “serious” procedural problems and omissions of “significant information” in pursuit of surveillance authority all fell in the direction of expanding the unprecedented investigation of a presidential candidate (later, a president)” (NOTE FROM BALLADEER: The fact that the Democrats are willing to ignore this Gestapo-style approach by the FBI just because they hate the man being investigated shows how low that party has sunk.)
“…Officials on the “Crossfire Hurricane” Trump-Russia investigation went to extraordinary, almost comical lengths to seek surveillance authority of figures like Trump aide Carter Page”
“…Likewise, the use of reports by ex-spy/campaign researcher Christopher Steele in pursuit of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) authority had far-reaching ramifications. Not only did obtaining a FISA warrant allow authorities a window into other Trump figures with whom Page communicated, they led to a slew of leaked “bombshell” news stories that advanced many public misconceptions, including that a court had ruled there was “probable cause” that a Trump figure was an “agent of a foreign power.” There are too many to list in one column, but the Horowitz report shows years of breathless headlines were wrong.” (NOTE FROM BALLADEER: Yes, those headlines were VERY wrong.)
“Press figures have derided the idea that Steele was crucial to the FISA application, with some insisting it was only a “small part” of the application. Horowitz is clear: ‘We determined that the Crossfire Hurricane team’s receipt of Steele’s election reporting on September 19, 2016 played a central and essential role in the FBI’s and Department’s decision to seek the FISA order.”
“… The Steele report reads like a pile of rumors surrounded by public information pulled off the Internet, and the Horowitz report does nothing to dispel this notion. At the time the FBI submitted its first FISA application, Horowitz writes, it had “corroborated limited information in Steele’s election reporting, and most of that was publicly available information.”
“Horowitz says of Steele’s reports: “The CIA viewed it as ‘internet rumor.’” Worse (and this part of the story should be tattooed on the heads of Russia truthers), the FBI’s interviews of Steele’s sources revealed Steele embellished the most explosive parts of his report.” (NOTE FROM BALLADEER: And this is exactly like the way J Edgar Hoover’s FBI would allow even the most salacious and unconfirmed rumors about his political targets to be included in FBI files, knowing that to laymen the fact that something comes from “an FBI file” lends it undeserved credibility.)

This blog post is not targeted at you if you are a rational person who simply doesn’t like President Trump. This is targeted ONLY at the Hillary-supporting loons who have been sniveling to me about the Russian Collusion fantasy for years. Watching the unhinged reaction of those fascists to the “No Collusion and No Obstruction” findings from their beloved Robert Mueller has been almost as much fun as Election Night 2016. 
CAREER CRIMINAL HILLARY CLINTON FAILS IN BID FOR WHITE HOUSE
VOTERS TO OBAMA: DROP DEAD
Readers of Balladeer’s Blog have been asking me for a new take on accused rapist Robert Mueller’s Russian Collusion circus. I’ve covered my view of it exhaustively in the past and consider it as inane as Newt Gingrich’s anti-Bill Clinton snipe-hunt long ago. 
Murky Mueller and his Funky Bunch of Hillary donors continue their criminal antics. Mueller and his fellow thugs have so many conflicts of interest that I would not blame any reasonable person who rejects anything and everything peddled by those gangsters. 
Here at Balladeer’s Blog I am appreciating all the history we are living through right now. America has its first de facto Third Party President in Donald Trump. He is being attacked from all sides by crooks just like Bernie Sanders or ANY OTHER outsider would have been. 
It’s no secret that the longer Mueller’s make-believe investigation (LMAO) goes on the more it has become apparent how Barack Obama imposed Chicago-Style Corruption in every governmental agency. And I mean EVERY. 
PETER STRZOK (Pronounced “Strzok”) – This clown proved that there actually ARE grotesque ethical violations that – once sufficiently publicized – WILL force Murky Mueller and his Funky Bunch to pretend they’re going to do something about it. Strzok was – by his own social media accounts – a Hillary shoe-shine boy and bears a pathological hatred of President Trump. It redefines “sleaze” that this bizarre little man was allowed to be part of both the coverup of Hillary Clinton’s crimes and the investigation of the man who defeated her in the election.
