Guest essay by Eric Worrall
h/t Breitbart – a leaked Clinton campaign email suggests Clinton is aware that Russia is pouring millions of dollars into Western green groups, particularly anti-fracking groups, in an attempt to hobble America’s domestic energy market – to protect Russia’s petroleum export market.
The following excerpt is from a summary of private paid for speeches made by Hillary to supporters;
…
Clinton Talked About “Phony Environmental Groups” Funded By The Russians To Stand Against Pipelines And Fracking. “We were up against Russia pushing oligarchs and others to buy media. We were even up against phony environmental groups, and I’m a big environmentalist, but these were funded by the Russians to stand against any effort, oh that pipeline, that fracking, that whatever will be a problem for you, and a lot of the money supporting that message was coming from Russia.” [Remarks at tinePublic, 6/18/14]

Next time a radical rent-a-green group protests a local fracking operation, ask them why they don’t have a day job – how they can afford to spend months at a time away from home, disrupting everyone elses lives. But don’t be surprised, if you don’t receive a clear answer to your question.
Are there any genuine ‘Green Groups’ out there these days? The environment always seems very low on the agenda of most ‘Green Groups’.
The conservationists are still there, getting on with the good work.
Don’t call them “green” though, you might get punched in the nose.
theeuroprobe.org 2015 – 009 Russian connection to Anti Fracking activists ? Mick G Posted on 29 January, 2015 | Leave a comment | Edit Political blog by Bishop Hill Antifracking: the Russian connection ? Jan 28, 2015 Energy: gas Foreign Via Instapundit comes an article from the Washington Free Beacon which reports that money is being funnelled to anti-fracking activists by a mysterious company in Bermuda with links to the Russian oil business:A shadowy Bermudan company that has funneled tens of millions of dollars to anti-fracking environmentalist groups in the United States is run by executives with deep ties to Russian oil interests and offshore money laundering schemes involving members of President Vladimir Putin’s inner circle.One of those executives, Nicholas Hoskins, is a director at a hedge fund management firm that has invested heavily in Russian oil and gas. He is also senior counsel at the Bermudan law firm Wakefield Quin and the vice president of a London-based investment firm whose president until recently chaired the board of the state-owned Russian oil company Rosneft.The findings are based on a report by the US Environmental Policy Alliance. I don’t think a fire has been found yet, but the quantities of smoke are prodigious.Update on Jan 28, 2015 by Registered CommenterBishop Hill A little Googling shows that Hans-Joerg Rudloff, the chairman of Marcuard, a UK company named in the report, is a former director of Barclays Capital and a close associate of Suleiman Kerimov, who is a significant shareholder in Gazprom.

Read Podesta emails leak, Soros emails leak and DNC, Hillary and the democrats rigged the primaries for a Clinton win, Clinton is also colluding with the s\pac, that’s actually illegal

I suppose she thinks it OK for American entities (Soros, Tides, Rockefeller, Moore etc.) to do the same thing to Canadian natural resource and pipeline operators.
Thankyou CH4.
1. If Russia is has hacked anything more damning than politics as usual, our friend Mr. Putin will have the most effective blackmail machine in history. Hillary has nine lives when it comes to avoiding indictment, but when she’s elected, expect Vlad to have her right where he wants her. Can you imagine the only husband and wife to be elected President AND be impeached? She’d sell the country out in a minute if it keeps her from consequences.
2. The media is worse than biased. Observe the recent revelations of bowing to the democratic throne. We might as well have a state sponsored propaganda machine the way it is appearing at present.
A US politician I met once said of the current generation. The US now has the best politicians money can buy.
The Communists didn’t go away after losing the Cold War. They infiltrated the West and have accomplished things they never could have on the outside. And one of their main stated goals was to undermine Capitalists with economically disastrous Environmentalist hoaxes.
Meanwhile, leftists ridicule any discussion about communists as crazy conspiracy talk, claiming they don’t exist anymore. They use the same tactic on many subjects. Because they’ve lost the arguments, they simply silence opponents.
But the fact is, the President was raised and mentored by Communists and obviously believes their anti-American, anti-Christian false propaganda. And commie sympathizes in the media never discussed this.
Likewise, the German Chancellor was raised in Communist East Germany because her father (nicknamed “Red Kasner”) moved there when everyone else was trying to escape because Stalin was sealing the border. And today that Chancellor is leading a hostile foreign invasion of Germany using foreign mercenaries, which is supported and partly paid for by Obama. Coincidence?
And therefore, we should all bow to Tsar Putin, the savior of Mankind? / sarc
These international acts of cuddleism have got to be stopped before they start harming the children.
an old story, I think:
https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2014/jun/19/russia-secretly-working-with-environmentalists-to-oppose-fracking
The Russians certainly aren’t funding all environmental groups or even all those opposed to fracking…
Notice how the troll tries to move the goal posts.
A grand total of nobody ever claimed that all of these groups are being funded by the Russians.
Q: Who really runs US/world politics? A: not politicians or countries, it’s the central banksters, from behind the curtains.

Next thing, you will be ranting about being crucified on a cross of gold.

Educate yourself, don’t just sling ignorant insults.

PS: Griffin is bright enough to have realised, & he states it openly & fully, that the CAGW “environmental” scam is part of the central banksters drive toward a one world totalitarian govt.
Putin appears to be thwarting this drive in Ukraine & Syria.
I wish I could be confident he was the real deal,

Trump disappoints for many reasons, I get that, but the naivety of many commenters on how past presidents (of USA and most other countries) have behaved with women is rich. The much loved and regarded Kennedys take no back seat to Trump in their lusty pursuits. Bill Clinton is the worst and unbridled felon of all. Its idiocy to decide to vote for someone like Hillary because Trump squeezed a bottom or two. Hillary will say anything about the economy, terrorism, health care, the poor to get elected and will then ignore this and carry on dismantling America and globalizing the lefty distruction of civilization to furthering the new world order of elites doing what is best for themselves. We know her real platform. Donald Trump is at least put out 100million of his own money so is unbeholden to the elites. He is the best choice if you want to keep your constitution, get things built, overturn the scary works of the international marksbrothers and prevent an activist lefty supreme court lasting 50 years, or however long as necessary to kill the constitution and American economic might. You only have to hold your nose for 4 years.
“Its idiocy to decide to vote for someone like Hillary because Trump squeezed a bottom or two.”
It should be pointed out that there is no evidence of Trump doing such a thing. Just accusations from the Left.
After the Soviet Union fell, their archives showed that many, perhaps even most of the so called Peace groups were funded by the Soviets.
Is there something wrong with wanting peace??? Seems to me to be preferable to funding the war all the time groups.
“Is there something wrong with wanting peace???”
There is nothing wrong with wanting peace. Any sane person wants peace.
The problem is the real world is not peaceful. There are insane people out there in the greater world who do NOT want peace, and the only way to deal with them is to confront them.
Wishing they didn’t exist, or would go away, doesn’t work. The bullies and bad guys don’t care if you want peace., They see that as a weakness and an invitation to take advantage of you. They only understand force. I’m sorry, but that’s the way it is.
I wonder is John Kerry got any of that communist money when he met with the North Vietnamese communists in Paris? No, he probably did it for free (undermine the U.S./SouthVietnamese war effort that is).
I tend to discount the ad hominems and other nonsense, and since we are not electing a minister or Boy Scout leader Trumps boorish, sexist, behavior is not a serious concern for me either. I do think he would promote our oil and gas energy independence, and probably nuclear also. Can he actually renegotiate our terrrible trade deals without destroying our exports and triggering a world wide trade war? Maybe. Nor sure, but it could be worth a try. At least he would do something about open borders whereas Hillary never will. As for foreign policy he is “pro-Russia” perhaps, but while we do need to support our alliances with Western Europe I dont see why we stick our noses into Ossetia, Crimea and East Ukraine, as well as other areas in Russian’s back yard.
Bottom line is Trump wants to rebuild our country’s economy which requires increasing our industrial production, technology, etc. We must vastly improve our education system but it will take more than just attacking teachers. It will take money. SAme for our infrastructure. It will cost a bundle but will put money in peoples pockets. Where will the money come from without more taxes? Trump has never explained.
“Where will the money come from without more taxes? Trump has never explained.”
Trump is counting on vigorous economic growth to increase the tax revenues to the U.S. Treasury. His estimation is with his taxcuts he can get U.S. GDP up to the 3.5 to 4 percent range (currently 1 percent growth) and keep it there.
Tax cuts like Trump is proposing have worked to increase revenue to the U.S. Treasury every time they have been tried, such as with JFK and Reagan’s tax cuts. There is no reason to think it won’t happen the same way this time.
Lower tax rates will spur economic activity and could bring up to $5 TRILLION back into the United States from companies who have been holding their money overseas because of current sky-high U.S. tax rates (the highest in the world). That’s a lot of economic stimulus right there.
If Trump cuts the corporate tax the way he wants, he won’t have to worry about companies leaving the U.S. They are leaving because taxes are lower in other countries. If taxes are as low or lower in the U.S., then the companies will stay here and others will relocate here, especially considering our favorable energy situation.
Tax cuts will certainly help, but one fact to absorb is that under the current Western Rothschild central banking system, modeled on the Bank of England, ALL money is created out of thin air, as debt.
In other words, the money can be created if the political will is there.
G. Edward Griffin’s book, The Creature from Jekyll Island is a work of considerable scholarship, very well referenced, & as I said above, the chapter summaries can be read in an hour ~.
John Doran.
The Kennedy tax cuts worked because the rates were at that time absurdly high. The Reagan cuts, along with Reagan increases due to ending numerous deductions, seemed to work, but the resulting Reagan/Clinton boom was largely the result of massive, pent up demand after Paul Volker reduced his sky high interest rates that had been in place a number of years. Also, that was the heart of the Great Real Estate Inflation which enabled millions of middle class Americans to pay off their credit cards with “funny” money. As you will recall, that did not end well. The 2008 near depression was a “collapse of demand” recession such as we had not seen since 1929. The formerly well off U.S. middle class was simply flat broke.
But yes, we should find a way to get corporations to repatriate their trillions they hold overseas.
This is nothing new
I remember Bruce Kent, the former director of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, talking about it in an interview once.
Apparently, a bloke with a strong Russian accent phoned the CND offices once and offered them a very large donation (for those days – this was in the 70s). Of course, they accepted. CND was heavily strapped for cash, and they didn’t *know* the money came from the Kremlin…
The donation came with no strings attached; why not, when CND was doing just what the Soviets wanted them to do anyway? (I.e., attempting to move Western public support away from nuclear armaments.)

When the shit hits the fan once Hillary’s bankers fully take over the poor are going to be on the firing line and not the hedge fund bankers who are now pulling the strings .
Neither candidate is capable but the USA election is now about who has the thickest wallet .
It is obvious one of the biggest changes is the infiltration of senior government posts by people with a strong distain for elected representatives , getting their marching orders from large donors and activists many of whom are siphoning tax payer money to work against the public interest. EPA for example .
Amber,
“Neither candidate is capable …”
I’m curious what makes you think Mr. Trump is not “capable” . . If you suggested to me before this election cycle got going, that ANYONE could do what he has to generate a serious threat to those bankster’s, large donors, activists, and bureaucrats plans/power, I’d have thought you were ignorant or nuts . . What’s with the dis?
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Wednesday said that US claims Moscow is meddling in the American election process are “flattering” but baseless.
Lavrov shrugged off US allegations that Russia has directed cyber attacks against American political organisations in a bid to influence the November 8 vote.
“It’s flattering of course to get this kind of attention for a regional power, as President Obama called us some time ago,” Lavrov told CNN.
“Now everybody in the United States is saying that it is Russia which is running the (US) presidential debate.”
But Lavrov insisted that there is not a “single fact, a single proof” to back Washington’s accusations.
President Vladimir Putin also struck back at Washington on Wednesday.
The Kremlin strongman insisted that the US accusations were aimed at stirring “hysteria” over Russia to “manipulate public opinion” and distract from issues uncovered by leaked documents.
Last week the Obama administration formally accused the Russian government of trying to “interfere” with the American election, and vowed to respond at an undisclosed time and place.
A White House spokesman said Tuesday that Washington would ensure that its “response is proportional”.
“If they decided to do something, let them do it,” Lavrov said.
In the CNN interview Lavrov also commented on lewd remarks by Republican candidate Donald Trump in a 2005 video in which he boasted about his ability to grope women as he pleases and said he could “grab them by the pussy.”
“There are so many pussies around your presidential campaign on both sides that I prefer not to comment,” Lavrov said, stressing that English was not his first language and he was not sure he would sound “decent”, CNN reported.
The Kremlin was propelled to the heart of American politics in July after Hillary Clinton’s campaign blamed Russia for an embarrassing leak of emails from the Democratic National Committee.

Russia has been accused of favouring Trump — who has praised Putin and pledged better ties with Mocow — over the more hawkish Clinton.
Russia’s relations with the United States have sunk to their post-Cold War nadir over the conflict in Ukraine and stalled efforts to end the five-year Syrian war.
“over the more hawkish Clinton.”
Clinton is not hawkish. She is Barack Obama in a dress, when it comes to U.S. national security and national defense. I guess anyone would look like a hawk when compared to Obama, but don’t be fooled, Hillary Clinton is just another clueless Leftist who knows nothing about how to protect the United States.
Hillary thinks it is a good idea to “empathize” with the terrorists. That ought to tell you all you need to know about Hillary Clinton and U.S. national security. Doesn’t have a clue.
Venezuela’s Supreme Court has raised another obstacle to an opposition drive for a referendum on recalling leftist President Nicolas Maduro, who is blamed for a deepening economic and political crisis.
Proponents of a recall already faced a high hurdle: they must collect signatures from 20 percent of the electorate — or about four million voters — over a three-day period from October 26 to 28.
But in a ruling Monday the Supreme Court raised the bar even higher by making it 20 percent of the electorate in each of the country’s 24 states in order to force a recall vote.
“The failure to collect that percentage in any of the states or the capital district would nullify the validity of a presidential recall referendum,” the court said.
Maduro’s popularity has plummeted as his oil-rich country has spiralled into chaos, with the economy now in its third year of a deep recession, exacerbated by the plunge in world oil prices.
Inflation is expected to top 700 percent this year, and ordinary Venezuelans are struggling with widespread shortages of food and medicine.
The opposition Democratic Unity Roundtable (MUD) has pushed for a recall vote as a constitutionally accepted way out of the crisis.
But Maduro keeps a tight hold on key levers of power, including the courts, which have backed him in moves aimed at neutralizing the opposition-controlled National Assembly and heading off a recall.
The opposition, meanwhile, is counting on an overwhelming turnout during the three-day signature drive to pressure the government to give way.
“It will be a moral recall,” said Jesus Torrealba, MUD’s executive secretary.
The opposition is pressing for a recall vote before January 10, even though the country’s electoral authorities say there is not time to organize one this year.
The timing of the vote is key because under the constitution a successful recall before January 10 would lead to new elections. If Maduro is recalled after that date, he would hand over power to his handpicked vice-president.
