Have you wondered why the inane scandal with Hillary’s emails refuses to die? A big part of it is that Putin’s army of Internet trolls is manipulating your favorite information outlet into keeping this non-story alive.
Of course, as the great Russian poet Alexander Pushkin said, it isn’t hard to dupe those who are desperate to be duped.
Oh, so now John Schindler in Putin’s troll?

I publicly accused him of doing Putin’s work – whether knowingly or not – two years ago. His fans went nuts and he conducted a weird investigation of me reaching very bizarre conclusions. If the fellow can’t track down somebody as transparent as me, I wonder what kind of spook he is.

Wow, I missed it. So what was his conclusion? That you are Putin’s troll?
I used to like his stuff (and there is still a lot of good stuff on his site, for instance about ex-Yugoslavia, but I am a bit tired of him being too one-dimensional. Occasionally, when he writes about things I know, like Estonia, I can catch him… “I have this Estonian friend (who is my friend because he liked what I write on my blog in the first place) and he said something that perfectly fits my picture of the world, therefore it must be correct”…

They decided that I’m. . . Serbian. Because my website apparently belongs to Serbia. Because it’s so super hard to figure out who WordPress belongs to.
I liked him, too, before he started mentioning Ukraine and I realized that I’d heard all he was saying before. I heard it on Russian TV Channel 1.

Now you know the REAL reason Bernie is staying in the race. He’s waiting for Hillary to be indicted, so the nomination will fall to him as the last Democrat standing. 🙂

I hope he is sitting down for it will be a long wait. 😀

I have to use this. It perfectly describes a lot of the hard-core “Bernie or burn it all down” Sanders supporters who view Hillary as being worse than Trump.
