Дайджест

Короткий дайджест основных событий последней недели:

1. Мюллер созвал большое жюри в Вашингтоне, которое выписывает повестки и возможно в конце концов утвердит обвинительное заключение. Впервые об этом сообщил Wall Street Journal, вскоре информация была подтверждена другими источниками.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller has impaneled a grand jury in Washington to investigate Russia’s interference in the 2016 elections, a sign that his inquiry is growing in intensity and entering a new phase, according to people familiar with the matter.

Our relationship with Russia is at an all-time & very dangerous low. You can thank Congress, the same people that can't even give us HCare!
- Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 3, 2017

2. Трамп подписал закон о санкциях, но, как мог, продемонстрировал, что делает это крайне неохотно.

I am signing this bill for the sake of national unity. It represents the will of the American people to see Russia take steps to improve relations with the United States. We hope there will be cooperation between our two countries on major global issues so that these sanctions will no longer be necessary. <...> I built a truly great company worth many billions of dollars. That is a big part of the reason I was elected. As President, I can make far better deals with foreign countries than Congress.

3. История про Сета Рича ("летчика Волошина"), как выяснилось, родилась в результате координации между Fox News и Белым Домом. Это объясняет маниакальное упорство, с которым Шон Хэннити продвигал эту дезинформацию.

The Fox News Channel and a wealthy supporter of President Trump worked in concert under the watchful eye of the White House to concoct a story about the death of a young Democratic National Committee aide, according to a lawsuit filed Tuesday.
The explosive claim is part of a lawsuit filed against Fox News by Rod Wheeler, a longtime paid commentator for the news network.

4. В другой операции по дезинформации, связанной с российским скандалом, Трамп, как выяснилось, лично вмешался, чтобы составить ложное сообщение о встрече своего сына с представителями России в июне 2016.

Flying home from Germany on July 8 aboard Air Force One, Trump personally dictated a statement in which Trump Jr. said that he and the Russian lawyer had “primarily discussed a program about the adoption of Russian children” when they met in June 2016, according to multiple people with knowledge of the deliberations. The statement, issued to the New York Times as it prepared an article, emphasized that the subject of the meeting was “not a campaign issue at the time.”
The claims were later shown to be misleading.

5. Ныне трампоганда в кооперации с армией российских ботов и троллей усилила атаки на Макмастера, Советника по национальной безопасности.

Media in support of President Donald Trump are calling for the ouster of Trump’s national security adviser, H.R. McMaster, accusing him of being a “globalist” “traitor” who is “aligned with the enemies of Trump and America.”

Ради такого дела Алекс Джонс взял еще одно интервью у Алекса Дугина.

In his interview with Jones, Dugin described Putin and Trump as ideologically aligned only because they were both "obstacles" to globalists.
"They are on the same side of the battle," Dugin said. "Putin plays here the role of defender - of Christian civilization, of traditional society, and of human nature ... We, as well, have a Russian 'swamp.'"

6. Атаки на Макмастера происходят на фоне эскалации с Северной Кореей - уникального шанса для Трампа повысить свою популярность путем "маленькой победоносной войны" и одновременно нащупать почву для сотрудничества с Путиным.
