Conspiracy Theory II: The Rise Of The Anti-American Alliance: Iran, Russia, And China Unite Against Trump Says Elizabeth Graham, Author Of Bestselling Book, From Democracy To Democrazy

Her bestselling ebook, ‘From Democracy To Democrazy, A Warning To All Americans’ will be available at no charge May 7 and 8, 2026 at Amazon.

Bestselling author Elizabeth Graham is an authority on the Trump/Putin relationship. Her articles have appeared worldwide, have been published on the websites of thousands of traditional media outlets and she writes a very popular Substack (www.egraham.substack.com ) on topics relating to democracy, Russia, and U.S. politics.

Kirkus Professional Book Reviewers said: "Graham's new book is an intriguing and informative ‘must read’ from a woman who is probably the best-informed American on the terrifying realities concerning Vladimir Putin's motivations and his control over Trump.” Clare Harwood, a publisher remarked: “Some books are written to entertain.  Others are written because the author feels responsible for speaking. Democrazy is clearly the latter. . . Graham draws not from theory, but from lived experience in authoritarian and communist countries. . . When she writes about Donald Trump’s similarities to leaders she encountered overseas, it does not read as partisan commentary.”

In a recent Substack post, Graham detailed the rise of an anti-American alliance comprised of Iran, Russia and China. In that post called CONSPIRACY THEORY II, she wrote in part:

“Much of the world is spiraling out of control as Donald Trump and JD Vance lie their way through daily press conferences as a pretense for “doing what is right.” Yesterday Vance said, “The bad news is that we have not reached an agreement with Iran.” The truth is, “We had an agreement with Iran in 2015. The deal imposed strict limits on uranium enrichment until 2040. It was called JCPOA and was an “agreement to limit the Iranian nuclear program in return for sanctions relief and other provisions.” (Wikipedia) It was working perfectly, until Trump tore it up in 2018 out of spite for one reason – it was Barak Obama who negotiated it. And the reason that Vance and Trump cannot negotiate a new agreement is that no one – in the entire world - wants to deal with either of them.

Donald Trump has sent two men to the Iran-US talks in Pakistan – one is his son-in-law and the other is has golf buddy.
So instead of working with Trump/Vance and the U.S. – Canadian prime minister, Mark Carney, is reshaping the Western alliance with the help of other NATO nations. Rather than collaborating with Trump and Vance, Starmer from the UK, Macron from France, and thirty-one nations met in Paris this past week to discuss the possibility of NATO operating without the United States and/or against the United States.

At the same time, Russia, China, and North Korea are supporting an alliance which includes Iran against the United States – leaving Trump – and his crazy sidekick Vance – and the American people who elected these men – more isolated and alone. Putin’s wish list is reaching effectuation and NATO may not crumble, but it might reorganize without the United States.

Even Trump’s tango with MAGA, far-right Republicans, and American “oligarch’s” is now tremulous and unstable. It is becoming almost a regular occurrence for Mr. Trump to post drawings of himself as God or Jesus. No one - whether a Catholic, a Christian, a Jew, a Muslim, or a Hindu appreciates or sees humor is such defamation or slander of religious leaders.        

In one post on his Truth Social network about six months ago, Trump was dressed like the Pope. Catholics worldwide were not amused. His latest description of Pope Leo is that the Pope supports nuclear weapons in Iran and Trump called him ‘weak’. This unpalatable association is typical of Donald Trump’s disturbed mind but then U.S. Congressional inaction also signals a troubling decline in the U.S. democracy.

Donald Trump is under the control of Russia.  The proof is found in several sources, The Mueller Report, the January 6th Report, the Jack Smith Report, and especially in the Craig Unger books. Mr. Unger details the who, what, where, when and why of Trump’s four decade-long relationship with Russians and subsequently his entrapment and bribery. Trump’s treasonous behavior is documented; it’s the Republican Party which has chosen to ignore the proof.

Treason is considered the topmost criminal offense in the United States – and for that matter in almost any country worldwide. The U.S. mid-term elections are only months away in 2026. If the Republicans lose the majority in the Senate, the House, or both – Donald Trump will face impeachment.  Once impeached, he is liable for other crimes such as treason. 

Daily, Trump walks a tightrope juggling Putin’s demand, many Republicans, the Senate and House, the laws and judicial system, the American public and media, the war in Iran, and his feeble attempts to cover up his crimes. This is enough psychological pressure to trigger chronic stress – possibly leading to cognitive impairment, potential psychosis, a stroke or heart attack.     

On April 23rd, Mrs. Trump’s obvious distorted speech attempting to separate herself from Jeffrey Epstein set off perfidious firecrackers in all directions. Most Americans noticed the deception, but few understood the hidden reasoning behind the speech. . .”

Putin Is Playing The Long Game With Donald Trump And US Politics Says Elizabeth Graham, Bestselling Author Of From Democracy To Democrazy, A Warning To All Americans

Kirkus Professional Book Reviewers said: "Graham's new book is an intriguing and informative ‘must read’ from a woman who is probably the best-informed American on the terrifying realities concerning Vladimir Putin's motivations and his control over Trump. It is a warning to all Americans."

Bestselling author Elizabeth Graham is an authority on the Trump/Putin relationship. Her articles have appeared worldwide, have been published on the websites of thousands of traditional media outlets and she writes a very popular substack (www.egraham.substack.com ) on topics relating to democracy, Russia, and U.S. politics. She invites her readers to join her on her Substack for discussions.

The Ebook version of From Democracy To Democrazy, A Warning to All Americans, will be available at no charge March 9 and 10, 2026 on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/stores/Elizabeth-Graham/author/B0CMY189NT?

Clare Harwood, a publisher, remarked: “Some books are written to entertain. Others are written because the author feels responsible to speak. Democrazy is clearly the latter. In Democrazy, A ‘Warning to all Americans”, Graham draws not from theory, but from lived experience decades working within government systems, operating abroad in communist and authoritarian environments, and observing firsthand how power consolidates and manipulates. When she writes about Vladimir Putin’s long game or about Donald Trump’s similarities to leaders she encountered overseas, it does not read as partisan commentary. It reads as a warning from someone who has seen these patterns before, and the strength of ‘Democrazy’ lies in that comparative lens.

Graham had a Top-Secret Security Clearance while a senior in high school, and immediately upon graduation began working undercover with the CIA. She later joined the SAIC's Foreign Systems Research Center (FSRC) for 12 years. Eight of these years were spent studying Russia and Russian, and she managed the largest Russian-language military, technical and intelligence data base/library in the U.S. She began to travel to the Soviet Union and then became one of the very few Americans to move to the USSR.

She lived under Communism in the Soviet Union, Russia, Ukraine, and Central Asia long enough to become bi-cultural, embracing Russian identity and culture. She presents her direct experience and insights regarding life under communist or authoritarian regimes to American audiences through her book and Substack posts. In a recent Substack post titled, 'Heroes' she wrote in part:

TIME100 Magazine dated June 2, 2022, was dedicated to the most influential persons worldwide. . . This edition includes the Russian dictator (Putin) behind a brutal war, and his foe, the Ukrainian President (Zelensky) whose leadership has made him a rare heroic figure in our divisive time. . . The description of President Zelensky was written by U.S. President Joe Biden. The description of President Putin was written by Alexei Navalny. For those of you who do not know Navalny, he was the leader of the Russian opposition, was poisoned by Putin but survived in a German hospital, then returned to Russia only to be arrested. He was serving nine years in a Russian maximum-security penal colony until his death.

Navalny states: “Perhaps Vladimir Putin’s true mission is to teach lessons. To everyone – from world leaders and pundits to ordinary people. He has been especially good at this in 2022. He reminded us once again that a path that begins with “just a little election rigging” always ends with a dictatorship.

When I read this statement, all I could think of was President Trump’s call (which was taped) to Brad Raffensperger (R), the Secretary of State for Georgia pressuring him to “just find about 11,780 votes” to overturn the 2020 presidential election. This was first published by The Washington Post and then The New York Times.

Navalny goes on to say: “World leaders have hypocritically talked for years about a “pragmatic” approach and the benefits of international trade. In so doing, they enabled themselves to benefit from Russian oil and gas while Putin’s grip on (international) power grew stronger. Between sanctions and military and economic aid, this war (with Ukraine) will cost hundreds of times more than those lucrative oil and gas contracts, the signing of which used to be celebrated with champagne.

Putin also has reminded us all of the “duck test”: if something looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck – or in this case, a dictator. The very same logic should be applied in this case: if someone destroys the independent media, organizes political assassinations, and sticks to his imperial delusions, then he is a madman capable of causing a bloodbath in the center of Europe in the 21st century. . . However, the answer to the main question he poses – how to stop an evil madman with an army, nuclear weapons, and membership in the U.N. Security Council – is yet to be answered.

The same could be said of Mr. Trump. Does Donald Trump remind you of the “duck test?” He is well on his way to destroy independent media in our country. He organizes politically motivated lawsuits against all who oppose him and a few have mysteriously died, and he sticks with his “imperial delusions.” Perhaps most importantly, he is a madman capable of causing a bloodbath in the middle of America and elsewhere. Every one of us has witnessed this violence. Alex Pretti and Renee Good were his victims, along with 33 others who have died in his “containment camps.”. His solidary and illegal military decisions have killed over 100 individuals in Venezuela and Iran. And perhaps most importantly, his closure of USAID has resulted in a genocide in Africa with an estimated death toll by 2040 of over 15 million people. (The Lancet)

This death toll far exceeds Putin’s number of deaths in Ukraine, and it exceeds Hitler’s number of Jews killed in Europe by more than twice the number. This is the deliberate action of a bigoted man who discriminates against Black and Brown-skinned people. This event stands as an atrocity of great historical proportions, which will burden Americans for generations - comparable to Germany’s history of Hitler.

“USAID-supported programs in low- and middle-income countries, heavily concentrated in Africa, prevented an estimated 91.8 million deaths between 2001 and 2021.

This includes over 30 million children under five and major reductions in mortality from HIV/AIDS (25.5 million deaths averted), malaria (8 million), tropical diseases and starvation.” (Wikipedia) The United States has gone from the world’s savior to the world’s most gruesome butcher in one year due to Donald Trump’s leadership.

Transatlantic Relations Seriously Undermined By Trump's Deception At Davos Says Elizabeth Graham, Author Of Bestselling Ebook, From Democracy To Democrazy

Kirkus Professional Book Reviewers said: "Graham's new book is an intriguing and informative ‘must read’ from a woman who is probably the best-informed American on the terrifying realities concerning Vladimir Putin's motivations and his control over Trump. It is a warning to all Americans."

Elizabeth Graham, a bestselling author, is recognized for her expertise on the Trump/Putin relationship. Her work has been published globally in more than 70 countries and is widely featured in traditional media, as well as on her very popular democracy-focused Substack blog which can be found at https://egraham.substack.com.
 
Graham had a Top-Secret Security Clearance while a senior in high school, and immediately upon graduation began working undercover with the CIA. She later joined the SAIC's Foreign Systems Research Center (FSRC) for 12 years. Eight of these years were spent studying Russia and Russian, and she managed the largest Russian-language military, technical and intelligence data base/library in the U.S. She began to travel to the Soviet Union and then became one of the very few Americans to move to the USSR. She lived under Communism in the Soviet Union, then Russia, and Central Asia long enough to become bi-cultural - she became Russian. Her first-hand knowledge and understanding of life in a communist or dictatorship country is shared with Americans in her book and in her Substack posts (egraham.substack.com). In a recent Substack post titled, 'Deception At Davos' she wrote in part:
 
Over the past year, European leaders have sought to engage President Donald Trump through diplomatic gestures, including commitments to purchase American goods, meetings with members of royalty, and gifts such as a custom-engraved golf club. However, President Trump’s proposal regarding Greenland has significantly strained transatlantic relations, reaching a level of tension that both officials and analysts describe as unprecedented in recent history.
 
Trump flew to Switzerland to connect with European leaders at the World Economic Forum and join their discussions regarding his promise to “take Greenland by force if necessary.”
 
The ‘Davos’ Trump speech was as incoherent as usual, but while Americans are familiar with Trump’s misleading statements, Europeans have not been exposed to them as often. I was surprised by their attentiveness, and by the questions asked after Trump’s speech. The statement “I will not use force to take Greenland” reassured many but breaking that promise could shock them. For Trump, words are used to con others, with no intention or understanding of honesty.
 
I understood this deceptive speech to be a plea for Europeans to retrieve their troops from Greenland and allow Trump to swallow up this country in the same deceptive way he did Venezuela. Trump explained that bombing boats in the Caribbean was meant to prevent illegal drugs from entering the United States, and he also said that President Maduro should be removed from power. The New York Times reported January 8, 2026, that the “primary mode of trafficking drugs to the United States from Venezuela is by air - not by boats.” (NYT, Jan. 8, 2026, “According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime.”) Then the entire world stood by as Trump announced that he will manage the country of Venezuela and control their gas and oil industry – money in his pocket.
 
An analogous situation is unfolding in Greenland, yet it seems that Europeans have not grasped the deceptive statements or fraudulent behaviors involved. Greenland possesses an abundance of untapped rare minerals used in the production of magnets, which play a critical role in the manufacturing of aircraft engines, electric cars, trains, and advanced technical machinery and equipment.
 
“China dominates the global rare earth magnet market, controlling most processing and manufacturing, which gives it significant leverage in high-tech industries like EVs, wind turbines, plane engines, and defense.” (Wikipedia). Once Trump issued a 100% increase (tariff) on certain Chinese goods, they implemented rigorous export controls on rare earth elements and magnets, now restricting products containing even minimal amounts of Chinese-origin materials.” (Ibid) China also acquires a large amount of natural rare metals from African nations – these are countries which no longer do business with the United States since Trump closed USAID – which resulted in a terrifying genocide across this continent.  The death toll could be as high as 14 million souls surpassing horrific fatalities by Hitler, Mussolini Putin, and other dictators except Stalin. (NPR, July 1, 2025) Take one minute to realize this enormous atrocity – and that Trump is responsible.
 
In response to Trump’s ludicrous tariffs on China, they tightened control over magnets, turning a crucial resource for modern manufacturing into a strategic asset. Now, Trump is striving to build alternative supply chains for rare metals and magnets by owning Greenland. He avoids openly discussing this, claiming control of Greenland is necessary for U.S. security—a tactic identical to his grab of Venezuela by treachery and deception.
 
Furthermore, he will not stop at Venezuela and Greenland but will pursue further territorial gains through misleading promises. He behaves like a friend one moment and an enemy the next – but in the end, he is constantly searching for new ways to accumulate wealth for himself and his family. According to PBS, “Trump and his family has received $1.4 Billion dollars due to his presidency in 2025.” He is a con man from New York who learned to cheat others and manipulate the U.S. judicial system.
 
Europe must stand firm and not permit Trump to gain ownership of Greenland.  Otherwise, it's uncertain which country he might target next or will he start World War III – just like Hitler’s landmass grab in the 1930’s and 40’s or Stalin’s creation then called the USSR.

Graham also announced the upcoming release of a new book, 'Survival: Democracy's Struggle To Survive'. 'Survival' is unlike other political or American government books available today. It is a comparative assessment, an inspiration, and an intriguing collection of Substack messages from some of the best-known and best-selling authors in the last decade covering the terrifying realities of today's political life, U.S. government, global challenges, and critical current affairs. It is an exhaustively explored and thoroughly investigated analysis of the deep, dark, clandestine linkage between Trump and Putin - a relationship which has plagued world politics and dismantled the United States government since 2015. Contributing authors include Craig Unger, Charlie Sykes, Steven Beschloss, David Adelman and Dr. Sanford Mayer. The book will be released in 2026.

We Have Entered The Beginning Of The End For Trump Due To The Epstein Files Says Elizabeth Graham, Author Of Bestselling Ebook, From Democracy To Democrazy

Her first-hand knowledge and understanding of life in a communist or dictatorship country is shared with Americans in her book and in her Substack posts (egraham.substack.com). In a recent Substack post titled, 'The Beginning Of The End' she wrote in part:

I predict that sometime in 2026, the Epstein files will prove Trump’s pedophilia. With the overwhelming unanimous vote of 427 to 1 Congress passed the Epstein Bill H.R. 4405, I would expect this same consensus to impeach Trump this year. One obstacle to achieving a majority vote is that members of Congress are threatened with phone calls from Russian Organized Crime within the U.S. Putin wants Trump to remain in office – you must ask why? 

Second, the leader of the Senate Oversight Committee is a Republican who supports Donald Trump. Despite H.R. 4405’s Congress approval demanding that the DOJ release all the unredacted Epstein Files by December 19, 2025 – four weeks have lapsed. Pam Bondi, Trump's Attorney General, released only 1% of the files, most of which were heavily redacted. This is a violation of the law by the U.S. Attorney General.

Members of Congress typically vote as their constituents prefer. Sex offender laws established in the U.S. during the late 1990’s and early 2000s aimed to regulate sex crimes, partly in response to shifting social attitudes from previous decades known as the “Woodstock” era or American society’s liberal approach to “birth control” medications. They established clear guidelines regarding offenses involving minors, rape, and other sexual assaults and abuses. The law firm of Keegan, Tindal & Jaeger, says “If you have two or more convictions for felony-level sexually predatory offenses, the court will sentence you to life in prison.

Nationwide social marketing campaigns were launched under these laws to shift public attitudes and behaviors. As a result of these extensive social marketing campaigns, sex offenders, especially those who are pedophiles, are now considered the worst of the worst – the scum of society. Both Epstein and Maxwell, his girlfriend, were convicted of operating an international underage sex crime organization. It has been reported that girls as young as 12 were involved. (The Miami Herald, “Virgin Islands allege Jeffrey Epstein trafficked girls as young as 12 as recently as 2018,” written by Daniel Chang and Kevin Hall, January 16, 2020).

Donald Trump is not only in the Epstein files but was reported as Mr. Epstein’s “best friend.” According to Mr. Trump, “I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.” (The Washington Post, July 8, 2018, written by David A. Fahrenthold, et.al.)

In the U.S., those convicted and sent to prison as a pedophile, often face beatings and death threats from other inmates or even prison guards. Jeffrey Epstein’s death was officially ruled a suicide, though there is speculation he may have been killed due to his pedophile convictions or to silence him from discussing Trump or other famous men.

If Congress released the Epstein files, finds inculpatory evidence, and then impeaches Trump, he loses presidential immunity and could be convicted of crimes such as treason and sex offenses.

He is already legally labeled a ‘sexual predator’ due to the trial of E. Jean Carroll. His court case proved he sexually attacked her in a department store dressing room. His conviction on 34 felony counts stemmed from efforts to conceal payments made to Stormy Daniels, who is described as an adult film actress. Twenty-eight women have come forward and reported Trump sexually attack them, including a woman who was thirteen years old at the time of the abuse. She then withdrew her court case due to receiving life-threatening phone calls.

Factors that will influence Mr. Trump’s impeachment or downfall:

(1) Epstein files ‘may’ prove Trump abused and possibly raped underage girls. I know exactly what he did in Moscow, because my daughter told me. She was the bookkeeper at the “Beverly Hills” casino and knew ‘who paid for what.’ This nightclub specialized in underage prostitution. The truth will come out eventually but due to Trump’s cover ups combined with Russian death threats, it is often hard to authenticate. The “Beverly” closed, employees were not paid, and Trump’s crimes were concealed once again. Now, all evidence of Trump’s crimes in Moscow sits in a file on Putin’s desk.

(2) Jack Smith reported “behind closed doors” to Congress that he has solid evidence that proves - beyond a reasonable doubt - that Trump was “clearly to blame for the Capitol Insurrection and pointed to the fact that numerous convicted rioters testified to this effect.” (USA Today) The January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol was an act of treason. The Smith testimony to Congress has been released to the public.

(3) Trump - along with Elon Musk and Marco Rubio - have committed “crimes against humanity” and a “genocide” when they closed USAID. A “genocide” of gargantuan proportions has begun across Africa, with an estimated death toll expected to reach 14 million people. (The Lancet, June 30, 2025). This large number of deaths is twice the number of Jews murdered by Adolph Hitler for the same reason – prejudice and bigotry.

(4) The “crime of aggression” as defined by the International Criminal Court includes “the planning, preparation, initiation, or execution of using a state’s armed forces against another’s sovereignty (or country), violating the UN Charter, by individuals in high political or military positions of leadership. This crime involves invasion or blockage and targeting leaders with the power to control state actions.” (Wikipedia). Mr. Trump ordered the US military to attack the sovereign country of Venezuela; he kidnapped the President of that country; and then met with senior personnel of U.S. oil companies in his effort to gain $100bn for himself via Venezuela oil.

Donald Trump Is A Draft Dodger Accusing Heroes Like Senator Mark Kelly Of Sedition Says Elizabeth Graham, Author Of Bestselling Book, From Democracy To Democrazy

Kirkus Professional Book Reviewers said: "Graham's new book is an intriguing and informative ‘must read’ from a woman who is probably the best-informed American on the terrifying realities concerning Vladimir Putin's motivations and his control over Trump. It is a warning to all Americans."

Donald Trump did not know the meaning of the word “seditious’ until he committed the crime himself says bestselling author Elizabeth Graham. In a recent Substack article, titled 'Donald Trump Has Accused Senator Mark Kelly Of Sedition', she wrote the following:

The’ Introduction’ of the January 6 Report, a 592-page document, begins by saying “A loudspeaker in the Capitol crackled with a dire warning on the afternoon of January 6, 2021, as I sat at my desk in the Senate press gallery.” (The Introduction of this Report was written by Luke Broadwater). It goes on to say “External Security Threat,” as I scribbled in my notebook what I was hearing, “Stay away from external windows and doors.” And then it said ‘Seek Cover.” I jumped out of chair to peer out of the third-floor window and saw a horde of supporters of President Donald J. Trump swarming across the pristinely maintained Capitol grounds. They were kicking over bike racks and making their way to the doors of the building. I had covered large protests before, but this had taken a turn. There was something different, something darker in their eyes.”

He goes on to say, “Hundreds of rioters, believing Mr. Trump’s lie of a stolen election had started to storm the building. They were beating police officers, shattering windows and doors, and I would later learn that they were chanting “Hang Mike Pence” and a gallows had been constructed for this purpose.”

Luke Broadwater was an eyewitness to the insurrection - an act of treason created by one man – Mr. Donald Trump. “The U.S. Constitution defines treason narrowly in Article III, Section 3, as only two acts: “levying war against the U.S. or “adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort “. Conviction requires testimony from two witnesses to the same overt act, or a confession in open court, preventing its misuse for political reasons, with punishments including death or lengthy imprisonment “ (Wikipedia)

Approximately 1600 of these individuals, many of whom were charged with Sedition, were convicted and sent to prison – except for Mr. Trump. Once re-elected, he pardoned 1500 of these insurrectionists.

A year after Mr. Trump’s second term, he is now accusing Mark Kelly of seditious behavior. Mark Kelly’s history “spans from a decorated U.S. Navy pilot and NASA astronaut to an Arizona Senator, known for his public service, space missions, and advocacy for gun safety after his wife, Gabrielle Giffords, survived a shooting. He flew combat missions in the Gulf War, commanded Space Shuttle missions, and later transitioned to politics, winning Senate seats in Arizona by focusing on issues like gun violence and veterans’ affairs, co-founding the nonprofit Giffords.” (Wikipedia) Mark Kelly is a national hero, just like John McCain and others who have served in the military.

I grew up – like so many of my generation – in a military family. My father served in WWII as army intelligence and later joined the CIA – a lifetime of dedication to the United States.

Mr. Trump is a five-time draft dodger (Military Times, Feb. 27, 2019) who has no concept of “service” or dedication to our country and has been quoted as saying that “those who died in service are losers and suckers.” (Politico, June 28, 2024) Trump’s comment at Arlington National Cemetery was that “it was a waste and could have made a wonderful golf course.” (Threads, August 29, 2024)

Mr. Trump has disgraced the office of the Presidency, has shown no understanding of how our system of government works, and he sold his soul and our country for self-focused and narcissistic lust – money or sex. He was apprehended because of a Russian KGB operation orchestrated by an individual possessing superior skills in deception - Mr. Putin. The present Trump dictatorial government in the United States exists because of several straightforward and verifiable reasons.

Trump's Strategy Equates To ‘Crimes Against Humanity’ Says Elizabeth Graham, Bestselling Author Of From Democracy To Democrazy, Available In Ebook At No Charge November 25, 2025

Kirkus Professional Book Reviewers said: "Graham's new book is an intriguing and informative ‘must read’ from a woman who is probably the best-informed American on the terrifying realities concerning Vladimir Putin's motivations and his control over Trump. It is a warning to all Americans."

Bestselling author Elizabeth Graham believes the closure of USAID, which may result in the potential deaths of millions of Africans is deliberate – Trunp’s bigotry against Blacks. Her book, 'From Democracy To Democrazy: A Warning To All Americans' presents startling information regarding Putin's attempt to destroy American democracy from within. The eBook version will be available at no charge November 25, 2025 at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/stores/Elizabeth-Graham/author/B0CMY189NT?.

Graham had a Top-Secret Security Clearance while a senior in high school, and immediately upon graduation began working undercover with the CIA. She later joined the SAIC's Foreign Systems Research Center (FSRC) for 12 years. Eight of these years were spent studying Russia and Russian, and she managed the largest Russian-language military, technical and intelligence data base/library in the U.S. She began to travel to the Soviet Union and then became one of the very few Americans to move to the USSR. She lived under Communism in the Soviet Union, then Russia, and Central Asia long enough to become bi-cultural - she became Russian. Her first-hand knowledge and understanding of life in a communist or dictatorship country is shared with Americans in her book and in her Substack by the same name (egraham.substack.com). In a recent Substack post titled, 'Crimes Against Humanity,' she wrote in part:

The unbelievable horrors of Auschwitz are recurring in 2025 - not the same methodology, but with the same intent of extermination.

America in a post-American world and with Mr. Trump’s malfunctioning leadership is gathering storms while fueling hostilities. “Trump’s approach is solipsism masquerading as strategy.” (*Foreign Affairs, June/August 2025) NATO and allies are placating the United States, at the same time they increase their own military budgets. “After all, they might come to loathe and distrust Mr. Trump’s America, but not as much as they already distrust China and Russia.” (Ibid) Trump’s bombing of boats in the Caribbean is viewed as “murder” by many other nations. “since there has been no provocation or proof of drug trafficking. His threats of invading Canada and Greenland have turned former American allies into adversaries. And the long-standing malevolence with Iran has solidified since his “unauthorized bombing” of their nuclear sites.

Mr. Trump’s subservient relationship with Mr. Putin is perspicuous and unmistakable – clearly observable to global foes and friends. He sees the Russian investigation as finished and history, but it is ongoing and may eventually prove his treasonous deeds.

USAID’s dismantling in February 2025 likely followed a Russian directive. This U.S. agency provided crucial funds for education and fought starvation, diseases, and poverty overseas – primarily in Africa. It was the face of American goodwill to millions of people in 122 countries. Unbeknown to most, USAID was also a source of vital information for the CIA. Contractual reports included financial and programming data, along with local demographics and political details. Over two decades, I worked with USAID multimillion dollar nonprofit contracts.

Today, Mr. Trump’s bigotry is killing Blacks and Browns in considerable numbers. His “unprovoked and unsubstantiated war on drugs” in the Caribbean has murdered innocent fishermen and others. As of November 2, 2025, “The US military has killed 70 people in 17 strikes and destroyed 18 boats.” (CNN, Nov. 2, 2025, written by Michael Rios, et.al.)

NPR (July 1, 2025, Jonathan Lambert) “estimated that 14 million lives could be lost due to Trump aid cuts in Africa.” The significance of this number is that it is more than twice the number of Jews killed by Hitler. Both men have expressed inhumane prejudices against other races. Mr. Trump, Mr. Rubio, and Mr. Musk have all been quoted saying variations of ‘no one has died since USAID closed.” These individuals have contributed to significant human suffering and mortality across Africa, while disregarding the severe consequences of their homicidal actions.

Mr. Kristof is an American journalist, a political commentator, and a winner of two Pulitzer Prizes. He wrote about his recent trip to Africa to witness these American-caused deaths. To quote him, “An ‘impact counter’ developed by an economist estimates that about 300,000 people have died so far from the reductions in American assistance, two-thirds of them are children. The death rate is said to be rising at the rate of 103 per hour.” (Kristof, Ibid) He goes on to say that “no one knows the exact number of deaths because no one is counting since the programs closed - the flat denial of any deaths at all is preposterous and criminal.” (Ibid)

Led by Donald Trump and denied by many in his current regime, the closure of USAID and these potential deaths of millions of Africans is deliberate. Since January 2025, Mr. Trump has openly demonstrated sectarianism and discrimination against Blacks and Browns and is comparable to Hitler’s bigotry against Jews. This crime is defined as Second Degree murder. These African deaths are “an intentional, unlawful killing that is committed with an extreme indifference to human life” - A CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY.

“A 2025 study estimates that USAID funding saved 92 million lives globally between 2001 and 2021, with a significant portion in Africa.” (AI Overview)

This genocide in Africa was created by one man’s bigotry and had been preventable.

Sanctions on Russia Are Worthless Says Elizabeth Graham, Author Of From Democracy To Democrazy: A Warning To All Americans, Available In Ebook At No Charge October 24 and 25, 2025

Kirkus Professional Book Reviewers said: "Graham's new book is an intriguing and informative ‘must read’ from a woman who is probably the best-informed American on the terrifying realities concerning Vladimir Putin's motivations and his control over Trump. It is a warning to all Americans."

Bestselling author Elizabeth Graham believes sanctions on Russia are simply worthless. More than that, she believes Russia has two revenue streams to support its war in Ukraine - and the United States is one of them. Her book, 'From Democracy To Democrazy: A Warning To All Americans' presents startling information regarding Putin's attempt to destroy American democracy from within. The eBook version will be available at no charge October 24 and 25, 2025 at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/stores/Elizabeth-Graham/author/B0CMY189NT?.

She later joined the SAIC's Foreign Systems Research Center (FSRC) for 12 years. Eight of these years were spent studying Russia and Russian, and she managed the largest Russian-language military, technical and intelligence data base/library in the U.S. She began to travel to the Soviet Union and then became one of the very few Americans to move to the USSR. She lived under Communism in the Soviet Union, then Russia, and Central Asia long enough to become bi-cultural - she became Russian. Her first-hand knowledge and understanding of life in a communist or dictatorship country is shared with Americans in her book and in her Substack by the same name (egraham.substack.com). In a recent Substack post she wrote in part:

The democratic world has failed Ukraine in its courageous fight for independence from Russia, with the United States playing a notable role in this disappointment. Under Mr. Trump’s administration, America has strayed from its democratic ideals. The once-stalwart executive chair in the Oval Office now teeters on the brink of collapse, a fitting symbol of Mr. Trump’s wavering allegiance. One moment, he casts votes in support of Russia at the United Nations, seemingly siding with the aggressor in their conflict with Ukraine. Just weeks later, he delivers a speech to the global assembly, proclaiming Ukraine’s potential triumph in its quest for democracy. This contradictory stance raises profound questions about America’s commitment to its core principles.

NATO countries, which still includes the US, think-tanks like the Rand Corporation, and others who declare themselves Russian “experts” are suggesting peace agreements which clearly demonstrates a lack of knowledge regarding how Putin operates and why.

The sanctions – as a means of deterrent – have failed miserably yet are still considered the toughest measures nations can take, short of war. Russia has skirted around these penalties and laughed at their authority. The Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) is a military alliance of post-Soviet states which includes Russia, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan. It was originally created in 2002 for collective defense, but more recently has supported Russia in actively delivering the very commodities and merchandise sanctioned by the US and Europe. For example, Kyrgyzstan is the affiliate link to purchase automobiles and then transport them to Russia.

“Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the US, UK and the EU along with other countries including Australia, Canada, and Japan have imposed more than 16,500 sanctions on Russia. (Wikipedia) The main sanctioned target has been Russia’s money. Foreign currency reserves worth $350B and about 70% of the assets of Russian banks were frozen. Gold, diamonds, and technology used for making weapons are also on the list. The G7 countries (the world’s seven largest economies) have imposed a maximum price of $60 a barrel on Russian crude oil, to try and reduce its earnings.” (BBC, “Sanctions on Russia and have they affected its economy?” 23 February 2024).

And while the Western world freezes Russian banks and Russian financial assets, black cash from Russians have purchased Trump-labeled properties. Craig Unger has written: ‘Indeed, the way the Russians invested in Trump-branded real estate revealed all the tell-tale signs of money laundering. The fact that properties could be bought via all-cash purchases and owned by anonymous limited liability companies that masked the beneficial ownership made Trump-branded real estate ideal for laundering vast amounts of money, which is precisely why they were so appealing. In fact, a 2018 Buzzfeed investigation found that across his developments, Trump and his partners sold at least $1.5 billion worth of condos to shell companies, cash buyers, and others who raised red flags for money laundering risk.” (Craig Unger’s Substack, published on Oct. 6, 2025) So what good does it do to freeze Russian money, when Trump himself is helping the Russians launder their black cash and turn it into viable US dollars - which then returns to Russia to pay their bills and finance the war with Ukraine. Black cash is undeclared income usually from illegal sources used to evade taxes.

In 2006, Putin bombed a school in Beslan (North Ossetia region of Russia) that was captured by Chechen rebels demanding their country’s independence from Russia. One hundred and eighty-six Russian children were killed. Andrey Nikolayevich Illarionov, a senior economic and policy advisor to Mr. Putin declared he could not emotionally deal with the consequences and the number of children killed. He moved to the U.S. and assumed a job as a senior researcher at The Cato Institution, a libertarian think tank in Washington, DC. In an interview with Newsnation Illarionov stated: “I have heard so much through all these years about the oligarchs, about how it is important to put sanctions on them. If you would like to make life miserable for these people, it’s OK. But if you think those sanctions would make changes in the decision-making process of Mr. Putin, it’s wrong. It’s a mistake. Russia is NOT a democracy. You can punish 145 million Russian citizens, and it will not change the decision-making process of Putin.” (In From Democracy to Democrazy, pages 136-137).

Russia’s primary income sources are (1) exports of its vast natural resources and in particular oil and gas. They also have larges sources of minerals, nickel, gold, and iron ore along with agricultural products such as wheat, and (2) their economy also operates with a lucrative black market consisting of nefarious sectors linked to Russian Organized Crime (ROC) - another division of Putin’s government. This source of revenue includes drugs, prostitution, money laundering, murder, arson, cyber-attacks, and other specific offenses.

Trump labeled condos have laundered billions of dollars of black cash, and of course Trump gets a fee for these transactions. Illegal drug distribution and sales across the U.S. is perpetually growing. NCDAS (National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics) reports 51.2 % or over half of people 12 years of age or older have used illicit drugs in the United States. Drug overdoses have killed over one million in the U.S. since 1999. (NCDAS Statistics) Russian Organized Crime (ROC) is in every US state and their primary function is drug distribution - earning billions of dollars that go back to Russia - again, to fight the war in Ukraine.

So, if the sanctions are ineffective, then what will work to stop the Russian aggression in Ukraine? Mr. Putin understands one fact: the use of force. Russian troops and drones entered European airspace and waters in October 2025. While these nations strive to protect themselves from US-imposed tariffs and pressures, they also face potential threats of military intervention or invasion by Russia.

One essential question to consider is, “would Mr. Trump buttress Russian invasions of other countries since Russian financial sources have procured large sums of income for himself and his family - OR would he support NATO and our previous allies?”

Bestselling author Elizabeth Graham believes Donald Trump, the Russion invasion and a weaponized world economy creates a tipping point for democracy in the US. Her book, 'From Democracy To Democrazy: A Warning To All Americans' presents startling information regarding Putin's attempt to destroy American democracy from within. The eBook version will be available at no charge September 8 and 9 at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/stores/Elizabeth-Graham/author/B0CMY189NT?.

Her first-hand knowledge and understanding of life in a communist or dictatorship country is shared with Americans in her book and in her Substack by the same name (egraham.substack.com). In a recent Substack post she wrote in part:

Our citizens have allowed a man to lead our country who touts that he is a master of the ‘art of the deal.’ He even published a book by this name. But like all that Donald Trump touches: his businesses, his hotels, his casinos, his nonprofit(s), his marriages, and now our country – destruction and chaos follow.

His list of crimes is matched only by his list of failed businesses. His illegal and brutal attacks on women and girls have embarrassed his families, ended several marriages, led to a conviction of sexual abuse, and more importantly also probably led to his entrapment by Russian KGB/FSB.

Trump’s entrapment by the Russian KGB/FSB has been confirmed by General Oleg Kalugin who was the senior manager of the KGB operations in the United States for decades. (Craig Unger, “American Kompromat”).

Trump has filed six bankruptcies, which crippled his lavish lifestyle. Western men who abnormally lust for women, cannot control their finances, think highly of themselves - narcissistic, conceited, and arrogant, and are willing to betray their country for money are the ideal target for Russian “kompromat.” Over decades, the Russians provided Trump with funds to pay his bills and in all probability women to satisfy his lechery– but there was a catch. I can only speculate at the amount of critical, sensitive, and classified information Trump has fed to Russians to keep the lights on at Mar-a-Lago and with no regard for the safety of our country. This is treason in any language.

Trump in his narcissistic, self-focused world, does not understand that his acquiescent and subservient relationship with Putin is transparent. He has managed to close investigations and wiggle around this issue, but it has become increasingly obvious and visible.

Cassidy Hutchinson said that “Trump was terrified of being poisoned.” (The Hill, Oct. 5, 2023) Poison is a commonly used lethal weapon for KGB/FSB, known world over. Their poison factory has been in continuous operation since Stalin (1921) and the Cheka – the predecessor to the KGB. This statement of fear expressed by Trump, is also a statement of guilt.

Trump is not equipped to negotiate deals with other countries – especially China, who out-witted him concerning his outlandish tariffs imposed on trade.

“When Washington announced a “framework deal” with China in June, it marked a silent shifting of gears in the global political economy” (Foreign Affairs, Sept/Oct. 2025) – an issue that Trump previously but pathetically believed he controlled. China’s ace in the hole was their monopoly of precious metals and the magnets made from such metals. They are essential for airplane turbine engines, and for a host of other high technologies. “This was not the beginning of U.S. President Trump’s imagined epoch of ‘liberation’ under unilateral American greatness or a return to the Biden administration’s dream of managed great-power rivalry.” (Ibid)

Instead, “it was the true opening of the age of weaponized interdependence, in which the United States is discovering what it is like to have others do unto it as it has eagerly done unto others” (Ibid) – especially with Trump at the helm. ‘This new era will be shaped by weapons of economic and technological coercion – sanctions, supply chain attacks, and export measures that repurpose the many points of control in the infrastructure that underpins the interdependent global economy.” (Ibid) There is no room in this new international and interdependent economy for bullies – the sandbox is already full of other nations who play fairly. A concept that Trump cannot even fathom.

The sanctions placed on Russia by the United States and other European countries failed, and in fact it created other supply sources while gaining new business partners and allies for Russia. They now supply inexpensive gas and oil to Central Asia countries. In return these countries give Russia needed consumer goods - bought abroad but transversed through Central Asia. Imported cars intended for Russia now travel via Kyrghizstan for example. And according to Andrei Illarionov, a former economic advisor to Putin, the “world could sanction Russia, oligarchs, and 145 million Russians for decades, and this would not change the solidary decision-making process of Vladimir Putin.” (From Democracy to Democrazy)

“Making the United States capable of holding its own in the age of weaponized interdependence will require more than just halting the rapid, unscheduled disassembly of the bureaucratic structures that constrain seat-of-the pants policy making and self-dealing” (Ibid) found in the Trump administration. “Europe is hampered by structural weaknesses, but the United States difficulties largely result from our own choices” (Ibid) – our nation chose a man for the Presidency who is a convicted criminal - a fraud and a felon, a man who attacks women in department store dressing rooms, has filed six bankruptcies and was saved from a seventh by Russian intervention. He sold his soul and our country to the Russians decades ago.

These facts cannot be denied. Since Trump has closed the Department of Education, over time the level of deductive reasoning and higher levels of cogitate, rational, and analytical thinking will diminish in the United States. Perhaps within ten years, most Americans will reason on the same grade-school level as Donald Trump, or those who can afford it will send their children to European schools.

'‘After decades of slowly building the complex machinery of economic warfare, the United States – due to Trump - is ripping it apart” (Ibid) along with all other essential institutional divisions. “In Trump’s self-focused and narcissistic view, all institutional restraints on his power are illegitimate. And any policy what-so-ever is centered on Trump himself. As personalism replaces intelligent bureaucratic decision-making, short-term profit or self-gratification takes priority over long-term national interest and progress.” (Ibid) The United States of America becomes a pariah in a world rapidly and aggressively growing while we digress.

Putin chose the right individual to destroy the United States, our democracy, and our lives – but the enormously sad fact is that the Trumpers and the MAGA followers are blind to Trump’s lack of understanding of the global interdependent economy and the world dynamics of 2025. He cannot “make a deal for tariffs or any other business” since he cannot see beyond his own wallet. A failure to grasp this global reality will and has already put American security, progress, and prosperity at risk.

Her college days were in Los Angeles with the desire to become a high school teacher. However, she was destined to study Russia, Russian language, and live a life of Top-Secret clearances and undercover work. This led to senior nonprofit management positions and consulting jobs in strategic places like Moscow and St. Petersburg in Russia, all the former Soviet - Central Asian countries, and Ukraine, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and many other locations.

Donald Trump Is A Modern Day Judas Iscariot – Who Was A Traitor, Says Elizabeth Graham, Author Of Bestselling Ebook, From Democracy To Democrazy

Kirkus Professional Book Reviewers said: "Graham's new book is an intriguing and informative ‘must read’ from a woman who is probably the best-informed American on the terrifying realities concerning Vladimir Putin's motivations and his control over Trump. It is a warning to all Americans." 

Elizabeth Graham believes Donald Trump is a modern-day Judas Iscariot. who was a traitor. She says we need only look at the facts. The eBook version will be available at no charge August 5, 2025 at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/stores/Elizabeth-Graham/author/B0CMY189NT?.

Graham had a Top-Secret Security Clearance while a senior in high school, and immediately upon graduation began working undercover with the CIA. She later joined the SAIC's Foreign Systems Research Center (FSRC) for 12 years. Eight of these years were spent studying Russia and Russian, and she managed the largest Russian-language military, technical and intelligence data base/library in the U.S. She began to travel to the Soviet Union and then became one of the very few Americans to move to the USSR. She lived under Communism in the Soviet Union, then Russia, and Central Asia long enough to become bi-cultural - she became Russian. Her first-hand knowledge and understanding of life in a communist or dictatorship country is shared with Americans in her book and in her Substack by the same name (egraham.substack.com). In a recent Substack post she wrote in part:

The United States is at the crossroads for many reasons, but from where I sit and the knowledge gained from twenty years living and working in Russia - we are in a tragic stage of devaluation.

Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill – Trumponomics 2.0 - will erode the very foundations of America’s prosperity. This domestic policy bill will impact the lives of every single American – the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer. It needs to be discussed by every single American citizen and those around the world who are witnessing the fleecing of America’s democracy.

CNN Business said that “the top 20% of American earners would increase income by nearly $13,000 per year, which amounts to an average 3% increase for those households. However, for the top 0.1% of American earners, the average annual income gain would amount to more than $290,000.” (Ibid) CNN also stated that “many people at the lowest end of the income ladder would be worse off because the package would enact historic cuts to the nation’s safety net programs, particularly Medicaid and food stamps.” (Ibid) “All told, the bill could result in more than 10 million more Americans being uninsured by 2034” (Ibid) There will be federal cuts to rural hospitals, which will impact the lives of those living outside of major cities – these are the farmers that feed America. As more farmers die due to untreatable illnesses or leave farming– food becomes increasingly sparse, in short supply, and expensive.

“The real-life consequences of these nearly $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts – the largest ever proposed by Congress – will result in irreparable harm to our health care system,” (Ibid) . . . hurting millions upon millions of Americans no matter where you live.

In the end, sources such as The Economist, CNN newscasts, MSNBC, and the NYT all report that this bill will increase U.S. debit by $3.4 to $4 trillion over the next decade – leaving our children and grandchildren to pay the bill but not providing any means for such repayment - just another Trump bankruptcy approach to economics. He has already filed six bankruptcies.

Our country is in a transitional period and is led by a megalomaniac who is destroying every vestige of American democracy. The reason for this devastation and dismantling of our country, our society, and our way of life was openly announced to the world in 1957 when the Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev used the phrase “We will bury you” on multiple occasions. Time magazine, one of the leading publications in the 1950’s and still publishing today, printed a cover that shows Khrushchev’s anger toward the U.S. His entire sentence said, “Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you!”

It appears that this archival prognostication may be correct and delivered by a man - Donald Trump - who says he is an American and a Republican. He is neither. He is more like a traitor or an apostate - ignoring laws and political principles.

At the time of the Khrushchev speech in 1957, Vladimir Putin was a young boy. He was inspired and motivated by Khrushchev’s tirade that lumped the U.S., Britain, France, and Israel all as bandits - enemies of the Soviet Union. If you follow Putin’s history, he was dedicated to the KGB as a youth, spent 15 years in Germany as a Russian spy, and was devastated when the Berlin Wall fell. He is the person who encouraged thousands upon thousands of former KGB men and women to rejoin the FSB (in 1994) and to restore Russia’s days of glory after Yeltsin’s embarrassing bought with alcohol. While he stood in the background, he was the protagonist – main character – who reconstructed Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union and Yeltsin.

By 1994, Putin headed the newly formed FSB and controlled all Russian banks and financing. Russia gleefully accepted millions of dollars from western sources in the 1990’s – designated to build a Russian democracy – and instead and unbeknown to those international donors, large portions of this money was diverted to rebuild Russia’s cycle of Cheka, KGB, FSB, SVR, and GRU – all variations of intelligence agencies created to oppose and destroy Russia’s enemies – including their number one adversary and nemesis - the United States.

The Soviet Union collapsed in 1991. I was already living in Moscow. and by 1993 I was the westerner who informed British Secret Intelligence Service (M16) that many Soviet/Russian nuclear weapons were headed south to the Mid-East. Former Soviet employees were selling off anything of value at junkyard prices. Monies pillaged from the USSR ruins were stashed abroad in hidden bank accounts - many in New York and some in Chicago. Together with money stolen from western governments, and millions of dollars laundered through Trump real estate deals (since the 1980s) - was all earmarked to be used later by Putin to rebuild Russia’s secret service, military, and fulfill his vendetta against the United States. While Americans - and others around the world - slept peacefully thinking the Cold War era was over, Putin ‘s plan – a reincarnation of Khrushchev’s conviction – was taking shape.

Dismantling The FBI: Bestselling Ebook, From Democracy To Democrazy By Elizabeth Graham, Available At No Charge June 3, 2025

Kirkus Professional Book Reviewers said: "Graham's new book is an intriguing and informative ‘must read’ from a woman who is probably the best-informed American on the terrifying realities concerning Vladimir Putin's motivations and his control over Trump. It is a warning to all Americans."

The bestselling ebook, 'From Democracy to Democrazy', by Elizabeth Graham will be available at no charge on June 3, 2025, at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/stores/Elizabeth-Graham/author/B0CMY189NT?.

Elizabeth Graham had a Top-Secret Security Clearance while a senior in high school, and immediately upon graduation began working undercover with the CIA. She later joined the SAIC's Foreign Systems Research Center (FSRC) for 12 years. Eight of these years were spent studying Russia and Russian, and she managed the largest Russian-language military, technical and intelligence data base/library in the U.S. She began to travel to the Soviet Union and then became one of the very few Americans to move to the USSR. She lived under Communism in the Soviet Union, then Russia, and Central Asia long enough to become bi-cultural - she became Russian. Her first-hand knowledge and understanding of life in a communist or dictatorship country is shared with Americans in her book and in her Substack by the same name (egraham.substack.com).

MSB has reported that Donald Trump is dismantling the FBI. In a recent article, she wrote in part: “MSNBC reported that the FBI has folded the public corruption unit that investigated Donald Trump. This same division worked with Jack Smith on his “Russian interference report.” As a result, Peter Strzok, the former FBI Chief of counterespionage was fired.”

On a Substack message sent by Willy Perez-Feria on 5/16/2025, “Politically motivated, the dismantling of the FBI will undermine the bureau’s integrity and influence. Attorney General (AG) Pam Bondi, who cited a desire to free resources for ‘more pressing priorities’ – a lame excuse – disbanded the FITF (Foreign Influence Task Force) in early 2025.

As a comparison, when Putin took office as the President of Russia in 2000 - among his first tasks was to dismantle their KGB and give a newly formed government branch called the FSB many of the same tasks previously performed by their KGB. Please note, that before Putin became President, he created the FSB (Federal Security Service) and led this organization until his presidency in 2000. It was created in 1994 and is one of the successor agencies of the Soviet-era KGB. Its primary function is internal security and counterintelligence, but it also oversees all Banks.

The FBI is (or was) the lead agency in the U.S. for investigating and exposing intelligence activities, including espionage. They also investigate counterterrorism, counterintelligence, cyber-attacks, public corruption, civil rights, and transnational organized crime. (www.fbi.gov) LAWFARE, printed an article on January 13, 2019, written by Jack Goldsmith titled: “On What Grounds Can the FBI Investigate the President as a Counterintelligence Threat?” This article begins by saying “The New York Times reported on January 11, 2017, that the FBI ‘began investigating whether President Trump had been working on behalf of Russia against American interests’ soon after Trump fired FBI Director James Comey in May 2017. In other words, the FBI opened a counterintelligence investigation on the president.” The Times paraphrases former FBI General Counsel James Baker’s testimony as follows: “If the president had fired Mr. Comey to stop the Russia investigation, the action would have been a national security issue because it naturally would have hurt the bureau’s effort to learn how Moscow interfered in the 2016 election and whether any Americans were involved.” (Ibid)

As David Kris noted, (Former Assistant Attorney General for National Security of the United States) “we have long understood that this counterintelligence investigation would sweep up Trump’s relationship with Russia and might include the question whether Trump might be compromised by the Russians. But the Times suggests that the FBI—at least after Comey was fired—took this investigation in a different direction, based on the premise that the president was a threat to the national security interests of the United States.” (Ibid)

This is the same timeframe when Mr. Trump told the American public that “I have nothing to do with Russia. You know the closest I came to Russia, I bought a house several years ago in Palm Beach, Florida for $40 Million and sold it to a Russian for $100 Million. (USA Today, Jan. 11, 2017, written by Jessica Durando) He also said “Russia has never tried to use leverage over me. I have nothing to do with Russia – no deals, no loans, no nothing!” (Ibid) All flat out lies.

Trump’s demeanor in the Oval Office when he welcomed Sergey Lazarov and the Russian Ambassador Kislyak was very different than other dignitaries. He behaved like greeting old chums.

In 2025, we know this (the Trump-Russia association) is not a fabrication or a deliberate lie. In fact, there is proof that Trump has been associated with Russians in the U.S. since the mid to late 1970’s. Craig Unger’s newest Substack opens with, “There are no Trump tariffs’ on Moscow’s biggest export – the mobsters and oligarchs who helped put him in power.”

Unger goes on to say, “On May 5th, Jason Leopold reported that the Trump administration was shutting down the ‘Department of Justice unit that has long been at the center of dismantling transnational organized crime networks, drug cartels, and human trafficking rings. No reason was provided for removing the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces. . . but getting rid of it must have delighted President Trump. This eradicated a potential threat to the Russian mafia, money launderers, and international criminal cartels, who supported Trump and have funded Republicans politicians for years.” (Unger Substack, Ibid)

In 1996, Trump attended the grand opening of the Chuck Norris Enterprise operation in Moscow. My daughter was also there. Called the Beverly Hills, this nightclub and casino were known in Russia for its naked girls, under-age prostitution, famous faces, and massive corruption. Trump was also a close associate of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxell, both convicted sex offenders and found guilty of child sex trafficking and other offenses. (Wikipedia)

In 2008, “Donald Trump Jr. told investors in Moscow that the Trump Organization had trademarked the Donald Trump name in Russia and planned to build housing and hotels in Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Sochi, and to sell licenses to other developers” according to Russian daily Kommersant (USA Today, 02/15/2017). This is another lie. In both Vanity Fair ((May 8, 2017) and Business Insider (Feb. 21, 2018) magazines, Trump’s elder sons commented that the Trump Organization had received $100 million from Russian banks and that Trump no longer needs to borrow from U.S. banks - they now get their money from Russia. U.S. banks refused to loan money to Trump who had six bankruptcies. Russian banks are managed and controlled by the FSB (since 1994) and Vladimir Putin and money from these banks to foreigners are for espionage purposes, to launder black cash, or for bribery.
