Trump Caves: Blackmailed by the Colluding Media, the President Signs Unconstitutional Sanctions Bill Demanded by AIPAC

by Scott Creighton

The Germans and the French and the whole of the European Union opposed this bill. Not only is it unconstitutional and baseless in terms of it’s justification for sanctions against Iran, Russia and North Korea but it levels sanctions against other nations in the EU if they dare do business with Russia’s energy sector, which is the whole point of the bill.

And yes, it was a favorite of AIPAC.

And President Trump signed it all the same… under duress.

“The White House announced the signing shortly after 11 a.m. ET, saying the bill includes “a number of clearly unconstitutional provisions” that “purport to displace the President’s exclusive constitutional authority to recognize foreign governments, including their territorial bounds.” In a separate statement, Trump said he believed the bill to be “seriously flawed” but signed it anyway.

“Still, the bill remains seriously flawed — particularly because it encroaches on the executive branch’s authority to negotiate,” he said in the statement. “Congress could not even negotiate a health care bill after seven years of talking. By limiting the executive’s flexibility, this bill makes it harder for the United States to strike good deals for the American people, and will drive China, Russia, and North Korea much closer together.” CNN

How about that? Knowing it’s unconstitutional, the president is so tormented by the colluding press, he signs it just the same.

Probably because he knows if he didn’t they could impeach him after universal calls by the complicit media and votes from the AIPAC-owned congress cowards.

This bill is nothing more than an attempt to continue the war for Pipelandistan by different means on the Grand Chessboard. It has nothing to do with Russia hacking anything, since that obviously never happened and recent developments prove it never happened.

It has nothing to do with Iran trying to develop nuclear weapons since they aren’t and have never tried to develop nuclear weapons.

And it has nothing to do with North Korea building a nuke to launch at the US no matter how many lying late-night comedy pundits make jokes about it trying to normalize the propaganda.

And yes, AIPAC pushed for this bill along with the Israel Anti Boycott Act which ALSO targets the EU.

Some might say this is Tel Aviv flexing their muscle in the world in the face of growing opposition across the EU to their brutality and criminal activity in Palestine. Some might also say it’s got a little more than something to do with Russia helping Syria keep Israel from stealing the Golan Heights, which they have coveted (yes I am fully aware of the implications of the use of that term) for decades.

Whatever the reason for this sudden, absolute, bi-partisan agreement on the bill and it’s completely baseless justifications in congress, you cannot deny the FACT that the complicit main stream media served as a sort of Sword of Damocles dangling over the head of the accidental king held by a single Israeli hair.

Had Trump refused to sign or vetoed the unconstitutional power-grab by an AIPAC-fueled congress, they would have simply gone around him and passed it anyway. And when they did that, the press, acting in COLLUSION with a FOREIGN POWER (ISRAEL), would attack Trump mercilessly, demanding his removal from office… based on their MANUFACTURED STORIES of him COLLUDING WITH A FOREIGN POWER (Russia)

This bill, the support of it in congress and the complicit media’s apologist take on it, has laid bare the sordid, rotting underbelly of American politics in a way that few other developments have.

Trump gives them what the masters of the universe want in terms of regime change in Venezuela, austerity in America, tax breaks for the super wealthy, privatization campaigns without rival for them to profit from. He is the neoliberal wet-dream, just short of them putting the Chicago Boys in the Oval Office.

But that wasn’t enough. The Russian reset had to be undone and Europe’s sovereignty had to be challenged for their numerous discretions.

This abomination will not hold.

This coup, conducted by a certain segment of society, will not hold either for we now make aggressive actions toward Russia, Iran, North Korea and the WHOLE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION at once so that a few greedy fucks with enormous influence over the cowards in congress can make their last desperate grasp at a tarnished brass ring.

These sanctions will not force Russia into compliance with the New Middle East agenda.

They will not bully European nations into buying LNG from us instead of Russia.

They will not stop North Korea from developing defenses that keep the greedy regime change/privatized central banksters at bay.

And they will not isolate Iran from the rest of the world.

But they will isolate us which is of no consequence to those who demanded congress act unanimously in support of them… against the better interests of their own constituents.
