For a casual viewer, reality can be a tricky show. Trying to grab a hold to the current narrative with its twists and knots, leaves the viewer with insurmountable mountain of homework: weird names, odd references result in cognitive dissonance that will bang one’s head like a hangover. You may be in way over your head. That even happens to a hardened veteran because it’s a whole web of narratives one needs to take into account.
This past year and a half has been an insane rollercoaster ride and by the looks of it, more is to come. However, to the excitement of the few and disappointment of many, Robert Mueller’s Rod Rosenstein appointed Russia-gate Special Counsel is clutching at straws. Mueller’s hands are tied and thanks to list of shady characters and unethical behaviour, he has no problem indicting the likes of Manafort, who deservedly seems to have had too much of that if not ill-gotten then unaccounted money laundered through Cypriot connections. How does any of this, even Rick Gates III and George Papadopoulos, have to do with Russia? Juxtaposition? A man who knew too much? Motive?
Ukraine and the Podesta Group form a central part of this dubbed Russian connection. This could lead into uncharted territory, something which Mueller would like to avoid presumably. Hovering above this frail tract one can visualise Uranium One debacle, Clinton foundation’s odd fundraising practices and finally rife almost to the point of utter ridiculousness with recusal inducing interconnectedness of all the parties to the suspected criminals where-ever we choose to look at. It’s a small circle indeed.
The lighter, less treasonous side of this House of Cards bandwagon includes unwanted advances and grabbing and touching, a mere remark of those unrefined, ungentlemanly actions earned then President candidate Trump the label of a chauvinist pig. And he wasn’t even President then. Now we’ve learned not only did Bill Clinton perform unbecoming of a President but also debauch and latest of the White House scandals include not unfortunately darker Boys Town connection but wheelchair ridden papa Bush who has allegedly groped women. What’s the deal with JFK anyway and George Bush Sr.? Nevermind.
In the entertainment aisle, we have comedy prophet Seth MacFarlane’s another joke comes to pass as a suspected villain, also villain in chief in the Netflix House of Cards and Hollywood darling Kevin Spacey is accused of laying hands on then a 14 year old some 30 years ago. Another suspect joins the perp line with the likes of producer big shot Harvey Weinstein and director James Toback. Let the blame game begin. Why are people are at Kevin Spacey deflecting these accusations by coming out the closet?
Pedophilia or more pronounced sexual abuse of minors is still a taboo subject in MSM news however the recent revelations surrounding #metoo campaign have pushed the line further towards those hidden crimes which like Weinstein’s abuse in Hollywoods is a public secret.
Is your head swirling yet? You haven’t seen nor heard nothing yet. It’s a wild wild web out there. One of the recently released JFK files’ document imply that there were at least two shooters in Dallas. What could that mean? No magic bullet then? A conspiracy. Oh, by the way, one of the documents makes reference of the Adolf Hitler travelling in Colombia in the mid-50. No bunker death? A conspiracy. There is no way to corroborate the veracity of every snippet of information that the released files contain. The truth is out there.
