Wednesday WayBack: Wingers, Propaganda and Vlad, Oh My

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes & ears. It was their final, most essential command – George Orwell, “1984”

Once again, right-wingers in the U.S. are just so proud to show their bat-shit-crazy support for Russia and never ending love of Vladimir Putin; this time during an end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it threat re: Ukraine.

Also not surprisingly, they are using their favourite target to blame for the Ukraine situation: yeah, ya know, Hillary Clinton.

From the American Russian Propaganda Network we ‘learn’ that the buildup of more than 155,000 battle-ready Russian troops and armaments surrounding Ukraine, with the very real danger of the breakout of an expansive war, is really not what we see or hear but a made-up diversion to protect Hillary Clinton – former First Lady, former Secretary of State, and former Senator from New York, who also won the popular vote in the 2016 presidential election:

“Is this a ruse, was this whole thing an effort to take everybody’s attention away from what Hillary Clinton did?”

Another winger, from CBN, is offering a number of ‘scenarios’ where Hillary Clinton could be charged with treason and executed.

Insane, yes. Surprising, no!
