Use this relationship map (based primarily on Seth's article) to follow the money behind "Evan Greenberg’s ACE Insurance, which became Chubb in 2016, with Maurice Greenberg, his onetime Russian-bank-owning father’s Russia investment vehicle Starr International... Maurice is a Vladimir Putin business associate who has also associated with Russian spies, other Kremlin agents, and the 2016 Trump presidential campaign."

This is highly concerning. Evil has no bounds and the almighty dollar is the goal

Yes—money now trumps security. (Pun intended, I suppose.)

I appreciate your work more than mere words can express.

If/when you have some time (after having a rest first) can do please do a deep dive on Flynn’s activities that aim to start his much wanted civil/race/holy war. He has “digital soldiers” who he’s “baptising” and he’s even got a handbook to help teach Americans how to kill fellow Americans that he sees as the enemy. So much has flown under the radar.

@jimstewartson has every video he’s done including so much more even while Flynn and Patel are suing him.

Again, thank you.

A transnational criminal syndicate of the world’s billionaires and their lackeys plan to strip the USA of her resources and sell it off for parts-Sarah Kendzior.

Literally EVERYONE said she was wrong!

I hate that she is right,…

We heard today from the UK Prime Minister that Sunak is not going to call the election in May, as we were half-expecting. He's waiting until November to hold the General Election - when the U.S. goes to the polls - which means there will be two G7 and NATO countries potentially in the throes of governmental changes at the same time. They're also salting the earth here, dismantling as much as they can in the lead up and curbing our freedom in the process. They've even redefined extremism this week to mean they can disenfranchise anyone these extremists don't agree with!

The Tories are currently 20+ points behind Labour in virtually every poll therefore it's almost guaranteed that there will be a new government in Britain come 2025, ahthough it still looks 50/50 in America. Even if the Democrats win in the U.S., what are Trump's plans if he doesn't want to lose again? All of these clandestine meetings and the legal shenanigans appear to be more troublesome by the minute. There are even questions on this side of the Pond as to whether our current government will relinquish power so easily after what happened on January 6th, as ludicrous as that sounds in a country where queuing is our national sport.

We had ex-PM and limper-than-a-lettuce Liz Truss at CPAC with racist sot Nigel Farage. Another Con, Lee Anderson, has defected to Farage's far-right Reform Party after being kicked out of the party for Islamophobia; this is where Truss is likely to be heading too. All of this before things really heat up both sides of the Atlantic.

Is there a bigger plan here for the end of the year being cooked up by both our far-right extremists? Two huge global countries are going to be very vulnerable at the same time, thanks to Rishi Sunak's General Election timing. The UK should have a new government and God knows what will happen in the States. Putin must be rubbing his hands and handing out the roubles.

Australia dodged a bullet at the last election but the conservatives salted the earth before they left too. The world is in a precarious place. The fascists are on the rise.

Will no one rid us of this troublesome president?

It seems the no one will have to be us, in November.

That’s what irks me. They rail against the “deep state” but if there really was one that fitted his imagination” he would have already shuffled off this mortal coil.

You wrote an excellent post re: longstanding ties Maurice and Evan Greenberg have with the Kemlin. That should be beaten into our psyches. Everything to do with tRump is MOBBED and ties in with Mogilevich. https://allthatsinteresting.com/semion-mogilevich

Your link re: FBI Agent Charles McGonigal confirms MY suspicions that the FBI is compromised. I doubt McGonigal is the only one. As I recall, Bragg’s office went to the extreme when tRump was elected (and he replaced Cyrus Vance, Jr.) by SENDING BACK EVIDENCE re: tRump crimes before closing down the criminal case. I haven’t trusted anything coming from Bragg since. . .

Trump is a Russian operative and has been all his adult life, like his horrid father before him. The FBI also “apologized” for not “properly vetting tRump” originally—and who can forget Comey posting his political sign? And as for Mueller—well, . . . I think the FBI is Kompromat. Where there is one McGonigal Rat, there is a nest.

Excellent, Seth. THANK YOU.

Did you intend Evan Greenberg in this sentence & perhaps the prior paragraph when you referred to "Goldberg" without stating what Goldberg??

"Men like Goldberg are open about the fact that they define U.S. national security in terms of their own financial profit, and make no apologies for viewing the world through the lens of corporate supremacy—essentially Ronald Reagan’s “trickle down economics” . . . ."

Apologies, THAT is the sentence where you wrote "Goldberg" without specifying WHAT Goldberg.

THIS is the sentence in the short, previous paragraph:

"All of which brings us to Evan Goldberg, Elon Musk, and other would-be plutocrats of their ilk."

I believe you meant "in no way" in this sentence:

" . . . borrower who in way qualified for assistance from a carrier of Chubb’s reputation, but actually sextupled the usual, industry-standard payment"

It sounds so much like a New York story (see also Greg Olear), where in the Security Council of the United Nations Russia can hold the presidency while invading Ukraine. And now the attack is led from Florida where the first voter fraud GOP win took place in 2000 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000_United_States_presidential_election_recount_in_Florida

Somehow hopefully the NY AG can stifle the scheme you lay out, Seth, by looking very carefully at the bond due 25 March, (with NY intelligence)🙏

Last comment, sorry will stop now but I can’t see any way we get through this. If trump somehow wins we are screwed but even if he loses he and the cult will want to burn the country to the ground. He has taught them that any loss is cheating and Flynn is ready. I see little hope. Please someone, talk me down.

You need some nonscreen time. Spring flowers beckon where I live. How about you?
