While the American media spotlight, ever enthralled by the sensationalism of the moment, remains fixated on Trump and his legal woes, other crucial and overlooked dangers continue to unfold in the United States. First, we have about half our country responding to Trump like zombies - brainwashed followers of the Republican Party (similar to members of the Jim Jones cult), who were unsuspectedly caught in coercive mind control techniques that Trump uses daily to influence his followers. His words are caustic, and seductive - take them seriously because they are a form of brainwashing. Second, we have a presidential candidate who sold his soul and our country to the Russians at least ten years prior to sleeping in the White House. (proof is found in From Democracy to Democrazy by Graham) Third, the influence of Putin's strategies quietly attempts to reshape the trajectory of American politics and American lives. We see that happening NOW.

This current political race is not just between Democrats and Republicans, but between a decent, hard-working, public servant who has successfully served our country for almost 50 years. His constituents re-elected him year after year as a Senator (36 years as a Senator, 8 years as the VP, and 4 years as the President) - he must have been doing something right!!! His accomplishments over the last 4 years are many. His experience and age is a benefit to all of us.

His opponent is a man who has been compromised by Russia, who is a convicted RAPIST and a serial sexual predator; who is also convicted of FRAUD with mounds of solid documented evidence and proof, and is now facing 91 CRIMINAL CHARGES. His speeches are filled with REPETITIVE statements of revenge, hatred, defamation of others, and with no discernable ideology. He talks about our country experiencing a "bloodbath" if he is not elected and in his distorted self-focused mind, he means what he says. How can anyone who values their freedoms think this man should be elected to lead a democracy? He tells his followers that he is saving our democracy, that Biden is an enemy of our country, and at the same time his actions demonstrate that he is destroying our country -a LIAR.

Americans were duped decades ago into believing that Russia is no longer our enemy and the world is living in peaceful coexistence. Yes, the Cold War did not die - a revelation for many Americans. We let our guard down, while Russia rebuilt their economy, their military, and their weaponry. Then in 2000, Putin became the second President of Russia. He instantly converted Russia from a communist-socialist government- a civilized form of government where people matter to a DICTATORSHIP where no one matters but Putin. He is a man who spent his entire life as a KGB spy, and blames the United States for the downfall of the USSR. Putin wants REVENGE. His primary method to accomplish revenge is to place someone in power that is under his control in another country. He has demonstrated this pattern worldwide OVER AND OVER.

Over the last quarter of a century, Putin has schemed and enacted his strategic plan. Based on the book called The Foundations of Geopolitics and published in Russia in 1997 - a carefully orchestrated and directed horror film has been produced. The movie theme is the destruction of the United States and the principal key actor is Donald Trump. It won't win any Oscars YET, because (1) this movie is still unrecognized by most Americans, and (2) the ill-informed Trumpers across our nation are the support cast. Trump's dangerous and many-sided destructiveness includes unprecedented ways to influence and control his followers - a form of brainwashing. Unbeknown to these followers, the person who's ideology they are following is not Trump, but Putin.

Microsoft has PROVED that 58% or more of all cyber attacks into the U.S. come from Russia. They have hacked into our: food and supplies, our military and security systems, our hospitals and medical supplies, our cell phones and communication sources, our banks and financial institutions, and admittedly into our elections and probably our polls. Polls sway voter opinions. Wake up Americans!

For the American public, our first source of information comes from our media - newspapers, TV, social media, and even movies. Since "Oppenheimer" was the Oscar winner in our 2024 Cinema history, it shows an awakening of the real dangers faced by Putin's threats of nuclear war. Putin's government also admitted to U.S. election interference in 2016 and 2020; they have said it will continue; AND Putin has "shouted from the nearest mountain-top" that Trump will win the 2024 election. What does he know that the American public does not? Has our media failed to do their research and inform the public of these dangers or are they continuing to focus on Trump's legal issues instead of the real danger facing America? Trump is NOT an ordinary political candidate - but a criminal and a traitor (From Democracy to Democrazy). Their broadcasts on sensationalism instead of reality is disconcerting.

I was at a book-signing event at a Barnes and Noble in Tucson, AZ. A middle-aged woman came up to me and said "I think Putin is a smart and great leader." I opened my mouth to respond, but nothing came out - I was shocked. These were the exact same works spoken by Trump only the prior week and in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. This, my friends, is BRAINWASHING.

Brainwashing is defined as telling lies over and over until it is perceived as the truth (wikipedia). If hatred is contained in the lies, it releases a chemical in the human brain to enact violence. Hitler used mass mind manipulation to turn an entire peaceful nation into mass murderers. Hitler killed about 6 million people through torture and slaughter, and probably another million or more on the battlefields attempting to stop his madness. Jim Jones, an American, amassed a cult of over 900 followers. He ordered them all to drink poisonous KoolAid and they all perished. Brainwashing is REAL and was started about 100 years ago in totalitarian countries (the long list of countries is found in From Democracy to Democrazy). Once a person is brainwashed, they may have little to no independent thought. This form of brainwashing was used in Germany by Hitler, was absorbed by Putin during his many years working as a Russian spy in Germany, and lo and behold it is now used daily in the United States by Trump.

The shadow cast by Putin over the landscape of American democracy, and his influence and control over Trump grows larger and darker by the moment. Yes, we should take Trump seriously because we must take Putin seriously. Our democracy hangs in the balance.
