Concerning Allegations That Trump Is A Russian Asset

Gerald Mcisaac

There are several videos available, on the internet, alleging that Trump is a ‘’Russian Asset’’. These are very serious allegations, as Trump is not only the American head of state, but also the Commander In Chief of all branches of the military. To accuse him of being in the service of a foreign government, is to accuse him of High Treason, a capital offence.

Yet strangely, Trump has not responded to any of these allegations. This is most surprising, as there is a heavy financial penalty to be paid for slander. Trump can personally testify to that! He has successfully sued several media outlets, quite recently. As well, he has been on the receiving end of such lawsuits. Yet he has refused to file a lawsuit against any of the people, making those allegations! 

Incidentally, the legal definition of slander is that a statement is false, and maliciously made. Naturally, as long as indisputable proof exists, that the statement is true, there can be no question of slander. Could it be that Trump is not suing for slander, because there is no slander?

These most serious allegations, that of High Treason, on the part of Donald Trump, are being made by a former high ranking KGB agent, by the name of Alnur Mussayev. This gentleman claims, in a Facebook post, that ‘’Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987’’. He further alleges that Trump was given the code name of ‘’Krasnov’’. He went on to say that ‘’Trumps narcissism made him an ideal target for recruitment by Moscow’’. What is more, he also alleges that ‘’Trumps personal KGB file is still active and is managed by Putin’s close allies’’. He goes on to state that the current policies, of the Trump administration, are explained by these facts. 

Incidentally, for the benefit of those readers who are not experts in psychology, I should mention that the definition of a narcissist is that of someone who ‘’has an unreasonably high opinion of themselves, need and seek too much attention and want people to admire them. They also do not understand, or care, about the feelings of others’’. That is a near perfect description of Donald Trump!

I can further add, that the KGB is the Russian equivalent of the American CIA. The members of both spy agencies are well trained, highly skilled, professional liars. For that reason, anything they say is at best, questionable.

Those who support these allegations, against Trump, point to the ‘’2017 Steele Dossier’’, which also cites ‘’compromising material’’ against Trump. Yet critics point out, correctly, that the Dossier contains references to ‘’anonymous sources’’, so cannot be trusted. After all, such sources are little better than rumours. 

This brings us to a second former KGB agent, Yori Shvets, who also alleges that Trump was recruited by the KGB, as a ‘’Russian Asset’’, in his 2021 book. He claims that Russian interest in Trump began even earlier, in the ‘’late seventies’’, due to Trump’s real estate business. His marriage, in 1977, to Ivana Zelnickova, a beautiful Czech model, first brought him to the attention of the Czech Intelligence. Shvets goes on to say that ‘’Trump’s 1987 trip to Moscow marked a key moment in his alleged recruitment’’. 

There are further allegations, on the internet, that ’’In 2008, Russian oligarch Dmitry Rybolovlev also helped Trump, during a debt crisis, by buying his Palm Beach property’’. Of course, Trump most emphatically denies all of these allegations. 

Another individual, by the name of Sacha Sotnik, has recently made two videos, posted on the internet. He describes himself as a ‘’former high ranking member of the USSR, one who had access to top secret information’’. He maintains that he is now an ‘’independent journalist, living and working in Slovakia’’. 

One of those videos is titled, ‘’Trump is a KGB agent’’, while the other is titled, ‘’Impeachment or Treason?’’. He alleges that the KGB not only recruited Trump in 1978, but also ‘’played a key role in his victory, in the 2024 election. This information may become the basis for impeachment, and even charges of treason.’’

Certainly, no one is his right mind, is about to take the word of any former member of the KGB, or of any Russian Oligarch, for that matter. So it is correct to be skeptical of these allegations, to put it politely. After all, such individuals are habitual liars. 

The same cannot be said of the former Acting Director of the FBI, Andrew McCabe. If there is any American government official, current or former, whom we can trust, it is Andrew McCabe. 

With that in mind, consider the fact that several years ago, during the first Trump administration, CNN conducted an interview with McCabe. This is covered in a video, currently posted on the internet, titled: ’’McCabe: It’s possible that Trump is a Russian asset’’.

The headline of the video reads, ‘’McCabe: From the very beginning, the president continuously undermined the Russia investigation; the question is why?’’

One of the latest videos, making similar allegations, is that of Craig Unger. It is titled, ‘’US author explains Donald Trump’s Russia, KGB connections’’. The narrator says he has written two books on the subject. He claims to be ‘’completely certain that Trump is a Russian asset’’. He also say that ‘’not a single one of his facts has been challenged’’. One of these ‘’facts’’ is that, as early as 1987, Trump called for pulling out of NATO, and aligning the US with Russia. Which is precisely what he is doing now. He also made a reference to an old movie, ‘’The Manchurian Candidate’’, in which Russia manages to secure a ‘’Communist’’ in the White House. Is it possible that life is imitating art?

I mention these videos, in order to stress the fact that these allegations are widespread, if nothing else. What is more, they are very likely to become ever more widespread. Especially after the February 28 meeting, between Trump and Zelensky, in the Oval Office, of the White House, in the presence of a great many journalists. 

The full video is readily available, on the internet, and is being widely discussed. The journalists are agreed that the meeting ‘’devolved into an Oval Office shouting match’’. They are also agreed that Trump just ‘’stood American foreign policy on its head’’! 

This is to say that, for the last eighty years, since the end of the Second World War, ‘’America has been at the centre of an alliance, with Western European countries, against the power of Russia’’. Not any more! Now America is aligned with Russia, against the countries of Western Europe! Now what could possibly have provoked such a dramatic shift in foreign policy? Could there be a particle of truth to the allegations that Trump is a Russian asset? One thing is clear: whether or not Trump is a Russian asset, Putin could not possibly be more pleased with him!

It has even been suggested that this could be grounds for impeachment, and subsequent removal from office. That is not about to happen! There is no chance of Trump being removed from office, as a result of impeachment proceedings. Even if Trump was to be removed from office, such a removal would not resolve the fundamental problem, that of stopping the Oligarchy, led by Elon Musk, from seizing power. 

As I have documented in previous writings, that which is required is the application of legal and illegal measures. Such legal measures include the application of the Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution, so that the Supreme Court could rule that Trump is a fraudulent President, and Vance is a fraudulent Vice President.

That would not completely stop the threatened take over, by Elon Musk and the other members of the Oligarchy, but would certainly be a big step in the right direction. That requires the cooperation of the common people, workers and family farmers. Yet such a removal from office, may well inspire those people. At least, it would prove to the skeptical, that the Oligarchy can be beaten. 

For the moment, may our signs and posters, as well as our emails, contain the following slogans:

Stop the Oligarchy! 

Dictatorship of the Proletariat!

Workers of the World, Unite!

Scientific Socialism! 

Constitutional Crisis

Gerald Mcisaac

It is to the credit of a considerable number of bourgeois scholars, that they are deeply concerned with the American democratic republic. They are convinced that President Donald Trump and Elon Musk, are determined to overthrow that republic, and establish a dictatorship, possibly even a state of fascism. Which is precisely what they are attempting, as they are following the directions contained in Project 2025. It may help to think of this as the American version of Mien Kampf.

As not all readers are Rhodes Scholars, for the benefit of those who may not be aware, I should mention that there are three branches of the American government. These consist of the legislative, judicial and executive, as per the Constitution. The intent, of the Founding Fathers, was to ensure that no individual or group will have too much power. 

Each branch has the authority to respond to the actions of the other two. This is referred to as the ‘’system of checks and balances’’. 

The legislative branch is essentially made up of Congress, which is the Senate and House of Representatives. They make the laws, can confirm or reject presidential nominations for federal agencies, federal judges and the Supreme Court. As well, only the Senate has the authority to declare war, while the House of Representatives controls the money. 

For example, the president, as head of the executive branch, can veto legislation created by Congress, although the Congress can also override that veto. Congress can also confirm or reject the nominees of the president. That same Congress can also remove a president from office, although this has never happened. At least, not yet!

The judicial branch is mainly composed of courts, headed by the Supreme Court. The justices of that Supreme Court, nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate, have the authority to strike down any laws which they consider to be Unconstitutional. 

Since the creation of the country, this system has worked reasonably well.  Not any more! The multi billionaires, monopoly capitalists, imperialists, the class of people technically referred to as the bourgeoisie, currently referred to as the ‘’Oligarchy’’, can no longer rule in the ‘’old way’’. They have decided to change their method of rule! That is where Donald Trump and Elon Musk come into play. And make no mistake, they must be stopped!

There are a number of videos available on the internet, concerning that subject. In my opinion, one of the finest is titled, ‘’Judge slaps Trump with brutal criminal warning’’. 

In this video, the narrator does a fine job of documenting the fact that ‘’the whole point of signing a whole mountain of ridiculous, disruptive and illegal executive orders, on day one, was not only to create chaos, but (also) a confrontation with the judiciary’’. 

Remarkably enough, this is very likely the case! Bear in mind that only a madman would deliberately challenge the judiciary! A judge, especially a federal judge, has tremendous power! That power has been given to them, by the Founding Fathers, in the Constitution. To challenge a federal judge, is to challenge the Constitution! Trump is placing himself above the Constitution! The law does not apply to him! He thinks that he can do anything he wants!

According to a legal expert, this challenge, to the judicial system, is ‘’maybe the most critical of our lifetime…our democracy depends upon the courts being able to enforce and interpret the law…Vice President Vance says that ‘judicial orders need not be followed’…there is no more control or restraint around the executive…no guard rails…three branches of government turned into one’’.

The narrator refers to this as ‘’full blown fascism’’, and ‘’must be taken seriously’’. 

Yet it is also a fact that the courts are taking action. In fact, a separate legal expert is of the opinion that the federal court will ‘’move to criminal contempt…they are going to rule against the administration in that case, and the Supreme Court is going to back them up’’. We can only hope that is true!

The narrator went on to state that a federal judge, in the state of Rhode Island, has ruled that the Trump administration has defied his ruling, and his order.

Apparently, this has attracted the attention of one of the most highly respected news papers in the country, the New York Times. According to the narrator, he quotes the NYT as saying, ‘’ (Judge) McConnell said the White House has defied his order to release billions of dollars in federal grants, marking the first time a judge has expressly declared that the Trump White House was disobeying a judicial mandate. …The ruling by Judge John J. McConnell Jr in Rhode Island federal court ordered Trump administration officials to comply with what he called the ‘plain text’ of an edict he issued on January 29’’.

The narrator considers this to be the ‘’initial step to define contempt’’. This was followed by a further statement, by the judge: ‘’Persons who make private determinations of the law and refuse to obey an order generally risk criminal contempt, even if the order is ultimately ruled incorrect’’.

This brings us to the ‘’interesting’’ question, posed by the narrator,  as to whether ‘’the US Marshalls will follow through on a court order? This is where the real test of our democracy will come to a head. Our courts lack the legal means of enforcement. They rely on the US Marshalls service, to carry out the will of the court. And guess which branch the US Marshalls service is in? Yes, the executive. That would be the very branch that Trump is purging and replacing with loyalists. Democracy will hang in the balance of that decision’’.

The narrator could have added that, in order to make the transition, from a democracy to a dictatorship, all officials must first take a different oath, from that of perhaps ‘’preserving, protecting and defending the Constitution’’, to that of loyalty to an individual, perhaps Donald Trump. 

As that is the case, we certainly have cause for concern, especially as he has been busy purging various government agencies, including the Marshalls service. Dedicated, patriotic, hard working Americans are being replaced, with those who are completely MAGA, loyal to Trump, above all else. Or so the Project 2025 people believe!

In my opinion, Trump and Musk have ‘’bitten off more than they can chew’’! I personally know a great many Americans, and rest assured, have deep differences with most of them. Not too surprising. Yet I would never accuse any of them of being traitors, people who would betray their country, break their oath of allegiance. I suspect that is true of the most die hard fans of Trump. 

I am sure that, if a member of the Marshalls service was ordered, by the courts, to arrest a member of the Trump administration, even Donald Trump himself, then that arrest would take place. 

No doubt, a great many readers may wonder why a Scientific Socialist, a Communist, would be so concerned with a democratic republic. Because, according to Lenin, ‘’The democratic republic is the best form of the state, under capitalism. But we have no right to forget that wage slavery is the lot of the people, even in the most democratic bourgeois republic’’. 

As that is the case, it is up to all Scientific Socialists, as well as all Independent Socialists, to unite with all those who are determined to preserve the democratic republic. That includes those who are the most avid supporters of capitalism. 

As the federal courts are already taking an interest, preparing to charge members of the Trump administration- perhaps even Trump himself!- with ‘’criminal contempt’’, then may I suggest that we ‘’add to his burden’’. More charges! It is the least we can do!

Of course, I am referring to the Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution. That outlines the procedure to be followed in all federal elections! As that procedure was not followed, in the ‘’2024 presidential election’’, then it follows that Trump is a fraudulent President, and Vance is a fraudulent Vice President.

I am sure that all bourgeois intellectuals, with a democratic sense, can agree to work with us, on this one particular goal. That is so much better than fascism.
