Ray McGovern — Mocking Trump Doesn’t Prove Russia’s Guilt


Good summary of the witch hunting to date. While he doesn't use the McGovern "soft coup" to characterize what is happening, he implies it. It's really about Trump rather than Russia. The US deep state has always had it in for Russia and won't rest until the US controls it, this is really aimed at neutralizing the president and continuing the effort to remove him from power.

Perhaps you saw "news" reports last week calling William Binney, formerly the NSA's technical director for world geopolitical and military analysis and head of the NSA’s Signals Intelligence Automation Research Center, a "conspiracy theorist" in those words. (Details at The Intercept.) Here is what McGovern says about it.
When news of the Binney-Pompeo meeting broke last week, the U.S. mainstream media again rejected the opportunity to rethink the Russia-did-it groupthink and instead treated Binney as some sort of “conspiracy theorist” with a “disputed” theory, while attacking Pompeo’s willingness to discuss Binney’s findings as “politicizing intelligence.”
To control the narrative there has to be only one side presented as obviously true based on "experts" and all other views characterized false, loony, or even faked. This m.o. is central to propaganda and disinformation.

While it doesn't address Russiagate and Trumpgate directly, it puts this in light of the US deep states' big picture.

It's about not on the Middle East but also Central Asia in an effort to wrest control of the Eurasian land mass from Russia and China. Recall Zbigniew Brzezinski's The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy and Its Geostrategic Imperatives. The Great Game is still on.
