Musician Moby has taken to social media to claim that the Russians do have enough damaging inside information that could potentially bring down Donald Trump’s controversial reign as the so-called leader of the free world.
Writing on his Facebook page, Moby insists that it’s true that Russian spies have a dossier on US President Donald Trump, which includes a videotape of him with Russian prostitutes.
“The Russian dossier on Trump is real. 100% real. He’s (Donald Trump) being blackmailed by the Russian government, not just for being peed on by Russian hookers, but for much more nefarious things,” claims Moby, who says that he’s “been talking to friends who work in DC” who can back-up the allegations.
Moby also claims that the Trump Administration “is in collusion with the Russian government, and has been since day one”!
Back in January, it was reported that senior US intelligence officials briefed both outgoing US President Obama and Donald Trump about claims that Russian spies had obtained compromising personal and financial information about the ex-reality TV star turned politician.
It was claimed that, back in 2013, Donald Trump was videotaped as he ordered and watched Russian prostitutes perform - as the dossier alleges – "golden showers in front of him" in the presidential suite of a Moscow hotel. The dossier claims Trump wanted the hookers to perform degrading sex acts, including urinating on the bed in that particular room because he "hated" President Obama who had once slept in the very same bed on a visit to Moscow!
The material was reportedly based on an “credible source” who is a former British M16 intelligence officer, who received the alleged embarrassing information from his Russian contact and promptly handed it over to the FBI.
BuzzFeed News website put the full 35-page dossier up on its website, which includes “graphic claims of sexual acts” about Donald Trump's “sexual perversions", as well as alleged disturbing information about his close links with Russian officials, who were “cultivating, supporting and assisting” him as he made his bid to become US President. It also disclosed compromising claims about Trump's business dealings.
The unverified report stated: "Speaking separately in June 2016, Source (the former top level Russian intelligence officer) asserted that unorthodox behaviour in Russia over the years had provided the authorities there with enough embarrassing material on the now Republican presidential candidate to be able to blackmail him if they so wished.”
Now Moby is adding fuel to the fire with his post on Facebook claiming that it is all true. And Moby even suggests that he can back it up by saying that he can "safely" and "accurately" post his comments, thanks to his friends in high places.
Moby also believes that Trump is now looking to drag America into war. He says that the Trump Administration “needs a war” and it will “most likely” be with Iran. “At present they are putting U.S warships off the coast of Iran in the hope that Iran will attack one of the ships and give the U.S a pretense for invasion,” Moby wrote on his Fcaebook account.
Here’s Moby’s full post: “after spending the weekend talking to friends who work in dc i can safely(well, 'accurately'...) post the following things:
“1-the russian dossier on trump is real. 100% real. he's being blackmailed by the russian government, not just for being peed on by russian hookers, but for much more nefarious things.
“2-the trump administration is in collusion with the russian government, and has been since day one.
“3-the trump administration needs a war, most likely with iran. at present they are putting u.s warships off the coast of iran in the hope that iran will attack one of the ships and give the u.s a pretense for invasion.
“4-there are right wing plans to get rid of trump. he's a drain on their fundraising and their approval ratings, and the gop and koch brothers and other u.s right wing groups are planning to get rid of trump.
“5-intelligence agencies around the world, and here in the u.s, are horrified by the incompetence of the trump administration, and are working to present information that will lead to high level firings and, ultimately, impeachment.
“i'm writing these things so that when/if these things happen there will be a public record beforehand.
“these are truly baffling and horrifying times, as we have an incompetent president who is essentially owned by a foreign power.
"-moby.”
Trump took to Twitter back in January to dismiss the story, saying: “FAKE NEWS - A TOTAL POLITICAL WITCH HUNT!”
Donald Trump's attorney, Michael Cohen said the claims were false and “so ridiculous on so many levels.” He added, “Clearly, the person who created this did so from their imagination or did so hoping that the liberal media would run with this fake story for whatever rationale they might have.”
A Kremlin spokesperson also dismissed the allegations. "It is an attempt to damage our bilateral relations. It is pulp fiction." he said. "You have to react to this with a certain humour, but there's also a sad side to this. Hysteria is being whipped up to maintain a political witch hunt."
Despite the denials, it's a story that doesn't look like it's going to go away in a hurry...
