Awake Goy SPEAKER 5: Yes! Yes, we’re under attack by Russia. The whole world is under attack by Russia.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: Really?
SPEAKER 5: Yes!
MAX BLUMENTHAL: How so?
SPEAKER 5: In every country, in every way. They are using our social media. Russia is no longer hiring human beings in army. They’re hiring social or computer organizers, and they’re doing it through the internet.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: You got a sign that specifically focused on Russia. What does it say?
SPEAKER 5: It says, “Putin’s Puppet.” And then it says, “Assclown.”
MAX BLUMENTHAL: What does that sign say?
SPEAKER 6: “No.” “Pence.” “Trump.”
MAX BLUMENTHAL: So you’re against full communism?
SPEAKER 6: Pardon?
MAX BLUMENTHAL: Pence and Trump are … Are you saying they’re communists?

MAX BLUMENTHAL: Oh, okay. I see.
SPEAKER: Thank you.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: I’m kind of new around here. Are you a communist?
SPEAKER 7: No, I’m not.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: You’re not for full communism?
SPEAKER 7: No, not at all. This is more ironic than anything.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: Oh, okay. What does it say?
SPEAKER 7: It’s Russian. It says “Make America Great Again.”
MAX BLUMENTHAL: Oh, okay. So Trump is a communist, then, is what you’re saying?
SPEAKER 7: Yes, exactly.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: Did you see the senator who alleged that 57 members of the state department were communists?
SPEAKER 7: No, I did not. When did this happen?
MAX BLUMENTHAL: In 1950, it was Senator McCarthy.
SPEAKER 7: Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, of course. Yes, I’m aware of that.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: But this is different.
SPEAKER 7: Yeah. Basically.
REP. JAMIE RASKIN: Duterte’s Philippines, Assad’s Syria, the recent chaos in Venezuela. All the despots, dictators and kleptocrats have found each other and Vladimir Putin is the ringleader of the unfree world.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: Do you support regime change in those countries?
REP. JAMIE RASKIN: Absolutely. From the people. Democratic revolution. I can’t …
MAX BLUMENTHAL: Who do you think would come into power …
REP. JAMIE RASKIN: Duterte’s a killer, let’s talk about Duterte …
MAX BLUMENTHAL: He was democratically elected.
REP. JAMIE RASKIN: Well, he is a killer who has assassinated people in the …
MAX BLUMENTHAL: He was elected. He has 80 percent approval. You support regime change?
REP. JAMIE RASKIN: Well, Hitler was elected too, then, you may as well say.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: He wasn’t elected.
REP. JAMIE RASKIN: There’s massive …
MAX BLUMENTHAL: Hitler won power through a coalition with the conservatives.
REP. JAMIE RASKIN: Well, but there was a democratic government, so, I mean it was, the Weimar regime was a democratic government.
SPEAKER 9: Just say “Nyet!” Just say “Nyet!” Just say “Nyet!”CROWD: Just say “Nyet!”
SPEAKER 9: Beautiful!
CROWD: Just say “Nyet!”
MAX BLUMENTHAL: I was searching for some concrete facts that could back up the rhetoric I was hearing at the rally. But when I asked protestors for the evidence about Trump and Russia, it turned out, they were still searching too.
SPEAKER 10: You don’t just go doing back channels. That’s not consistent with defending our country. It’s not consistent with our policies. And it’s a coverup.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: What do you think he’s covering up?
SPEAKER 10: She’s more eloquent than I am.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: What do you think the evidence is? Like, what’s the most disturbing piece of evidence you’ve seen?

MAX BLUMENTHAL: I just would think …
SPEAKER 11: … Details, you get them from her.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: But you’re calling him a traitor.
SPEAKER 10: Sometimes you have to do that in order to get the investigation moving.
MAX BLUMENTHAL: But you know that penalty for treason is the death penalty? Are you calling for the death penalty?
