Tillerson is going to Russia next week! Is all of this a false flag to divert questions from Russia

and Trump collusion and to a (ridiculous) "Tillerson needs to go to Russia in the middle of this great, sudden emergency in Syria! Look how tough Trump defies Putin! Tillerson needs to go to smooth things over -- not to get orders from Pres. Putin!" Honestly, the excuses for this attack are SO shallow, so fake, so clumsily and obviously orchestrated (Trump is sooooo moved by "beautiful babies" he didn't give a shit about when he was fighting (and is still fighting) for his Muslim Ban), with terrible staged photos with Jared and Bannon in the White House and that grotesque appearance of Trump last night via playback as he won't face live cameras.

And just like magic Tillerson has a planned trip to Russia next week! Hmmm, what a coincidence!

1. Money is god to these criminals. With so much of it at stake, they will

do what they have to do no matter what.

[get the red out]

2. Yes

Couldn't be anything else.

3. Yes

Exactly.

5. I agree. This is so obviously a "wag the dog" moment that it embarrasses me to see ANYONE

falling for it (and by this I mean ordinary people not paid pundits who serve up talking points far too often). Tillerson is going to see Master Putin next week and they needed some diversion to avoid endless "what about collusion" questions.

4. When else have we had a rather muted response from Russia?

After Flynn talked to them about sanctions when Obama announced them!

The Russian oligarchs are still working 'the useful idiot.'

6. EXCELLENT POINT! You are spot on about Flynn. And yes Tillerson goes next week to "smooth

things over" (get new instructions)
