“If Democrats want to prevent another four years of Trump they should hit him where they know it hurts: nonstop 24/7 Russia conspiracy theories. That’s what Americans really care about…”
Today’s Caitlin Johnstone essay has been replaced by this breaking report by the National News Conglomerate. NNC: Obey.
Following shocking reports from The New York Times and The Washington Post that Moscow is simultaneously working to both re-elect Donald Trump and ensure the nomination of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders in the Democratic presidential primary race, NNC has obtained further information confirming that nearly all candidates currently running for president are in fact covert agents of the Russian government.
According to sources familiar with the matter, the lone candidate not literally conducting espionage on behalf of the Russian government is Pete Buttigieg, the former mayor of South Bend, Indiana.
“Intelligence has revealed that Mr. Buttigieg is at this time the only candidate who we can count on not to place our nation’s interests square in the hands of Vladimir Putin,” an anonymous source in the Central Intelligence Agency told NNC on Saturday.
“In fact Mr. Buttigieg is the only candidate running with the skill, the experience and the multilingual relatability needed to bridge our nation’s deep divisions and bring Americans together in this time of uncontrolled hostility,” the CIA source continued.
“Because in truth, the unity of our togetherness is in the freedom of our democracy,” added the source.
“The long and winding road to the American flag was built upon the steps of our founding fathers. You don’t have to be a big shot Washington insider to see that the problems our nation faces are tearing us apart at our own peril with radical divisive rhetoric saying you need to burn down the establishment and voice a concrete foreign policy position. And that’s why I for one believe we don’t have to choose between revolution and the status quo: we can come together and find solutions that help the working class and billionaires.”
Experts say these new revelations on Russian election interference should consume one hundred percent of all news coverage for the entirety of 2020, and that Democrats should definitely spend all their time from now until November focusing solely on President Trump’s suspicious ties to the Russian government.
“I can’t think of a single thing that could possibly go wrong if Democrats focused exclusively on the possibility that the president conspired with Vladimir Putin in the lead-up to the election in November,” said Les Overton of the influential think tank Americans for an American America.
“If Democrats want to prevent another four years of Trump they should hit him where they know it hurts: nonstop 24/7 Russia conspiracy theories. That’s what Americans really care about.”
Asked if it’s possible that undue emphasis on Russian collusion could prove a fruitless endeavor given Trump’s soaring approval rating after impeachment resulted in his acquittal and the Mueller report failed to indict a single American for conspiring with the Russian government, Overton disagreed and said this time will be “like, totally different.”
“Democrats should definitely invest all of their mental and emotional energy in this Trump-Russia scandal, because this time it’s a sure thing,” Overton said.
“Put all your eggs in this basket and get your hopes up very, very high. The big BOOM is coming any minute now, I promise.”
Overton then departed with an envelope full of cash which he said was his life savings, reportedly to invest in lottery tickets.

Okay… maybe I did not get enough sleep last night. Every single one of these “quotes” above is hilariously unintelligible. I guess I’m trying to figure out if they are all just humorous fiction, or if Caitlin Johnstone is actually trying to assert that these are real quotes. Not one single statement in this article came from the linked WaPo or NYT articles. I love Caitlin… I read her work all the time. If it’s a parody of hilarity, then she needs to make it a little more obvious. Because none of the statements supposedly quoted above appear to come… Read more »
Who cares! Too many texts about the USA (with or without correct quotes)! Too little about the rest of the world, especially about RUSSIA!
Frankly, I am getting very tired with all of these “election” or “pre-election” news from the USA, but if I ignore them, there is almost nothing else left to read on THE DURAN.
Trump is guaranteed a win with this.
Yes he is. Thank god, a normal man amongst a bunch of fools!
“Uncle Vlad for President..!” 😀 😀 😀
Yes! I am all for it!
