This Week in the Hate America Left Trump Useful Idiots (8/16)
David Shasha
Amy Goodman, Trump Useful Idiot
I rarely if ever refer to White Jewish Supremacist Amy Goodman, who always has time for Palestinians and Iranians, but not for Sephardim, but she had the dubious distinction of being one of the first to go after Kamala Harris:
When Harris rolled out her campaign in regal style at an Oakland fest, Lara Bazelton did the same thing:

It was not as clear then that Harris would be the nominee, as there were many other candidates for the Hate America Left to choose from.
But Bazelton started the ball rolling to torpedo Harris, and along with some other factors, it worked.
And now Hate America Left Goodman, with all that is at stake, chose to do the same hatchet job.
And, right on cue, Bazelon was on the program the following day:
Who needs FOX News when you have Democracy Now!:

It is the proverbial Trump Pile On!
Matt Taibbi, Trump Useful Idiot
In my article on Robin DiAngelo I made positive reference to Taibbi’s takedown of the Corporate Race Seminar industry:

But there is another side to Taibbi that is not very helpful:

He had the dubious distinction of appearing in my first “The Left Becomes Right” article for his support of Trumpist RUSSHER treason:

And he has not stopped doubling-down on his Russialove:

He just published an article by Carter Page Flynn Manafort Putin ally Steven Schrage:

Schrage is now poised to become a fixture on FOX News:
I had not heard his name before, not being involved with the Trumpworld conspiracies, so I decided to Google his name:
He is a real piece of work:
It is unclear if Schrage played a role in the Trump-Russia investigation or if he was aware that Halper was an FBI informant. Page said he saw nothing during his encounters with Schrage that made him suspect he was involved in the government’s investigation of him.
“I never saw anything suspicious,” Page said of Schrage, noting he is reluctant to “point fingers” at anyone because of his own experience facing what he says are false accusations of being a Russian agent.
California Rep. Devin Nunes is not so reserved.
Nunes, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, dropped Schrage’s name out of the clear blue during his opening statement at the July 24 hearing with former special counsel Robert Mueller.
When Nunes asked Mueller whether the special counsel’s office interviewed Schrage, the former FBI director replied, “In those areas, I am going to stay away from.”
Nunes said in a Fox News interview Sunday that he wants to know why Schrage invited Page to Cambridge and whether his contacts with the former Trump adviser were linked to the FBI’s own interests in the Trump campaign.
This is what the run-up to the November election is going to look like. Devin Nunes is back!
And Matt Taibbi is standing in lockstep with him.
Counterpunch Remains FOX News
As if the Taibbi FOX News was not enough, we got more of it from Counterpunch:
https://www.counterpunch.org/2020/08/10/bidens-ukrainegate-problem/
The article is pure Hannity.
But with a Commie Pinko spin.
It is another Trumpist attempt to exonerate Putin, demonize Biden, and try to get Trump re-elected.
It appears that the Hate America Left is united when it comes to giving Lysol four more years.
