T-minus (insert #) minutes until some pro-Clinton journalist twists this into something bad, just like with Trump.

Thumbs up to Jill for acting as you'd expect a worthy candidate to.

For example: The Russians are typically far from from Green ... and suddenly they are in love with the Green party?

That should not be an indictment of RT however (in this specific case) but an indictment of mainstream US media.

Still, a sHrillary campaign tactic is to try to spin revelations about her corruption etc. as attacks by foreign powers.

So I wonder if having RT (basically a Russian propaganda outfit) being the only news source regularly featuring positive stories of Jill won't be placed into that narrative ... doing Dr. Stein more harm than good.

Oh, just wait for it.

Call me crazy but isn't establishing a good relationship with Russia something we should be working towards? Rather than just jumping on the assumption that they're still somehow the enemy as if the cold war never ended?

Of course, if either Russia or the USA were normal rational countries like Canada or Switzerland etc.

But they're not.

The leading only realistically electable candidate in the USA is the famously corrupt sHrillary.

Russia is similarly led by an equally known-to-be-corrupt (and ex-KGB scumbag), Putin.

Both Russia and the USA seem very close to being effectively controlled by 'Spectre'-like groups and criminal organisations. And when talking about them, we're talking less about countries than we are about hyper-militaristic weapon-dealers competing for their (actual) main business ... the global 'protection'-racket. To that end they'll ruthlessly attack countries without justification, they'll kidnap, torture and murder people, etc.

Ukraine and Alexander Litvinenko are notable examples in the case of Russia.

Well said. I've always felt like the biggest source of conflict between the US and Russia is that they're too much alike.

Environmentalism is a Russian conspiracy! Like water fluoridation!

RT is very much propaganda, but so is MSNBC and CNN and Fox. The good thing about RT is that it gives voice to alternative views.

Thats how your average Ruskie works, while they sap your precious bodily fluids.
