“Mr. Senator, this committee owes Michael Corleone an apology, an apology Mr. Senator!” Tom Hagen, Godfather 2

It is hard admitting that you are wrong. It really is. Whether it be in your marriage, your work, or any other relationship, it is always the right thing to do.

Last weekend, attorney general Barr, released its synopsis of the Mueller report on Russia-gate. To those who viewed politics and the media with objectivity and the utter disdain that they deserve, the results were fairly obvious. The Trump campaign did not conspire with the Russian government in the 2016 presidential election. Is that really much of a surprise. If you look at the disorganized campaign and all of the incompetent individuals who worked in it, it is almost unimaginable that they could conspire with anybody much less the Kremlin. In addition, there was some evidence of obstruction of justice but Mueller left that to the Attorney General to decide. I’m an accountant, not a lawyer, but I don’t see how you can obstruct justice when there is no underlying crime.

For the various media outlets who have talked about nothing but Russia-gate for the last two years, the reactions have been revealing. There was Rachel Maddow who came from a trout stream in Tennessee to a studio to talk about the report. She made many millions of dollars off of the scam as her show has been one of the highest rated in the past two years. She did not cry as many have asserted but it was a difficult time for her. She landed on the we have to wait for the full report take. Bill Maher said that I don’t care what the Mueller report says, I know he is a traitor. Former CIA Director John Brennan, who called Trump a traitor after the Helsinki summit and said that Trump would spend the last two years of his term in jail, said that perhaps his information was wrong. I bet it was, sort of like the prelude to the Iraq war. It takes one to know it seems as Brennan , while he was at the CIA, funded Al Qaeda and ISIS terrorists during the US attempt to topple Assad in the Syrian civil war. If that’s not treason, than I don’t know what is.

The one that topped it all off was Joe Scarborough, host of MSNBC’s Morning Joe or as I call him, the Buffoon. His take was that it was the Trump campaign’s fault as they lied to the media. What else was the media to think but that it was a conspiracy. Now, really, does anyone really believe in politicians, especially when they are in campaign mode. How naive. He and his co-host and wife Mika have moved on to well, maybe there was not enough evidence to convict him under the law of conspiracy with Russia, but he certainly did. Just look at his policies, Putin gave him the election and all of his policies have been pro -Russia. Joe and Mika are not much on facts, especially if they conflict with their religion of the State. According to them, if Trump brings a soldier home from some third world country, it is pro-Russian. In fact, Trump has over-compensated for the media hype and has been very tough on Putin.

What is the moral of this story? Don’t believe any of these people. Interesting, a lot of the same people that hyped Russia-gate , also were in favor and hyped the Iraqi war. They do not have the best interest of the country in mind. Hopefully, now Trump will act on his instincts and bring every soldier home. It has gone on too long. Also, there is no call for bellicosity toward other countries, especially those with nuclear weapons. Let’s all take a deep breath and step away from the big red button.
