Trump And Rudy Are Dupes

And, sadly, so many of you trust them to have any sense or integrity when it comes to Russia.

US spies say the Hunter Biden email controversy shows how 'exploitable' and 'grotesquely vulnerable' Trump and Giuliani are to Russian intelligence

Former spooks told Business Insider that Rudy Giuliani's role in coordinating a widely discredited New York Post story and President Donald Trump's willingness to seize on it highlights how vulnerable they are to being duped by Russian intelligence.

Federal authorities are currently investigating whether purported emails in the story featuring communications between Hunter Biden and a Burisma Holdings executive were part of a foreign influence operation.

Giuliani's access to Trump, the two men's personality traits, their eagerness to obtain dirt on the Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, and unwillingness to acknowledge Russian interference makes them a goldmine for foreign intelligence services, ex-spies said.

They are "grotesquely vulnerable, exploitable targets" and "any foreign intelligence service would be derelict if they did not try to exploit this," said a former CIA covert operative.

Steve Hall, the CIA's former chief of Russia operations, also said Trump and Giuliani's tendency to traffic in conspiracies and the rise of misinformation in right-wing media mean "we're doing a lot of [Russia's] work for them.

President Donald Trump smirked when supporters at his campaign rally on Friday revived a familiar chant.

"Lock him up!" they shouted as the president laughed. "Lock him up!"

The chants were referring to the 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, whom Trump and his personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, have long accused of being in bed with corrupt Ukrainian interests.

Specifically, they allege that Biden inappropriately leveraged his role as vice president to shut down a criminal investigation into the Ukrainian gas company Burisma Holdings to protect Hunter, who was serving on Burisma's board at the time.

As Business Insider has previously reported, there is no evidence that these claims hold merit, and they've been debunked by intelligence assessments, media reports, congressional investigations, and witness testimony.

Regardless, the Biden-Ukraine conspiracy theory was turbocharged this week, after The New York Post published a widely discredited story purporting to show "smoking-gun" emails between Hunter Biden and a senior Burisma executive about setting up a meeting with Joe Biden when he was vice president in 2015.

The story was written by a former producer for the Fox News show "Hannity," and Giuliani was one of its primary sources. Shortly after, it was reported that federal authorities are investigating if the emails were part of a foreign influence operation.

At a rally in Iowa on Wednesday, Trump touted the "explosive documents published by a very fine newspaper, The New York Post," which he said showed "that Joe Biden has been blatantly lying about his involvement in his son's corrupt business dealings."

Poor Barry, he’s being duped by the DNC and doesn’t even know it.   The most telling line to me, through this whole resent  fiasco, was when Pelosi & Blitzer got into it, and Wolf said he was worrying about people going hungry and Pelosi started repeatedly saying, “We feed them”.   She sounded so condescending.   Like a slave owner accused of mistreating her slaves and proudly proclaiming she feeds them.   Imo, that’s the way she regards all of us.  And this is the ultimate goal of the DNC, and whoever is the puppet master of this whole 💩 storm coming.

The FBI is investigating foreign influences trying to push nonsensical fraud through goofy Rudy and his 'water damaged' laptop. You know that's not what you are implying, right? 

You claim interference but when an article is reporting it’s not, you laugh at it?

It's John Ratliffe being quoted, and there may never have been a bigger shill for Trump. His job smooching will be over in a few months. Maybe he will go to work for what's left of the Trump Org.

Imagine that, a Monday morning, the weekend news shows have got the Parrot speaking early in the morning. What else is new with you Barry--did you find a whole list of OP-ED's to provide us for the rest of the week. LOL, I am sure you do. But what happens to you and your ilk if the polls are wrong again this year--like they were 4 years ago. You going to scream at the sky? You gonna say that "he's not my president"? But if he does win re-election, I suppose we can have 4 more years of hate pieces on the President. But look at it this way--whoever wins, we all get 4 more years of "I hate this President" articles. LOL, BTW--SSDD SMFH!!!!!!

He’s the director of National Intelligence. You think he would know if it’s disinformation or not from Russia.
