Of course you work for daddy!

The nasty guy has said he will cancel the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty. He says Russia has been violating the agreement (which Russia denies). Melissa McEwan of Shakesville notes:
I am absolutely sick at the groundwork being laid here for the expansion of the Russian empire under Putin's direction, and I am incandescently angry that every single item about this in U.S. media won't be framed in the crucial context that the president who has ordered the nation's withdrawal from this treaty is a Russian asset.

Trump is not making this stark move to put pressure on Russia. He is doing it so that Russia can resume expansion of its nuclear arsenal. Because he is a puppet of Vladimir Putin.



I and many others have noted that American news media have either mostly given the nasty guy a pass or actively support him. One aspect in particular is the nasty guy’s daughter and son-in-law as senior advisors even though both got security clearances over strong objections by the people who research such clearances.

Sarah Kendzior, in a quote from the latest episode of her podcast Gaslit Nation, explains why the presence of Ivanka are Jared in the White House is not questioned by the media:
The products of nepotism are covering an admin rife with nepotism. A reporter gets a job at her daddy's paper to cover a POTUS whose career relied on his own daddy and who then installed his son-in-law and daughter in the White House…

A normal person looking at Jared and Ivanka is gonna be like 'WTF is this? This is a violation of nepotism laws and they're dangerously unqualified.' But these reporters are like 'Of course you go work with daddy! Of course you keep it in the family!
