Coded Language


We're finally starting to zero in on the main point of all this Cult45 shit.

Ukraine seems to be the absolute key, and the way the Trump administration is talking about it has been very revealing - even though they're working hard to smoke-screen everything.

Rachel Frazen, The Hill:

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has said that President Trump's infamous July 25 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was "consistent" with the administration's policies.

The phone call in which Trump pressed Zelensky to investigate Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden is at the center of House Democrats' impeachment inquiry into the president.

"The call was consistent with what I had a long set of conversations with President Trump on our policy for an awfully long time," Pompeo said in an interview with Fox News. "Our policy has been very clear all along with respect to Ukraine."

Asked whether any parts of the call were not included in the rough transcript released by the White House, Pompeo doubled down on the fact that it was "consistent" with the administration's Ukraine policy.

"I heard the President very clearly on that call talking about making sure that corruption – whether that corruption took place in the 2016 election, whether that corruption was continuing to take place, that the monies that were being provided would be used appropriately," Pompeo said.

"It was very consistent with what I’d understood President Trump and our administration to be doing all along," he added.

We've been hearing some real whoppers from these guys.

One that 45* popped off with (paraphrasing): "Rudy looks for corruption everywhere he goes."

IMHO, this is not an untrue statement. He's just careful to leave out the operative phrase.

"Rudy looks for...(opportunities to cash in on)...corruption everywhere he goes."


Then along comes Pompeo telling us the Zelensky call was "consistent" with the president's policy regarding Ukraine.

Again, it's not an untrue statement, but what he doesn't tell us is that "the policy" is all about setting up Ukraine:
  • to be the patsy for Russian fuckery
  • as a conduit for money laundering
  • to be a vending machine for phony political dirt
We're starting to see a lot of what the real deal is - Ukraine is a key to whatever is included in Putin's plans, and Trump is key to neutralizing American resistance to his plans.

What's even more certain is that we won't ever be allowed to see some of the really shitty things that're happening.
