Multi-award winning recording artist and activist Moby gave an interview<\/a> to WFPK on Thursday to promote his new album, \u201cEverything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt,\u201d<\/em> but somehow ended up spending the last half of the interview talking about Trump and Russia.<\/p>\n Moby said he had made friends with a few \u201cactive and former CIA agents\u201d<\/em> over the years, who told him they were \u201creally concerned\u201d<\/em> that Trump was \u201cessentially being run as a Russian agent.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThis is the Manchurian Candidate, like [Russian President Vladimir Putin] has a Russian agent as the president of the United States,\u201d<\/em> Moby recalled his friends telling him.<\/p>\n The full interview was posted on Twitter by WFPK\u2019s Kyle Meredith. The discussion about Trump begins at 8:10.<\/p>\n Last February, Moby said he was having dinner with his friends when they asked him to post several anti-Trump theories on social media, where he has a large number of followers.<\/p>\n \u201cThey said like, look you have more of a social media following than any of us do, can you please post some of these things, just in a way to sort of put it out there,\u201d<\/em> Moby said.<\/p>\n Moby said his friends based their information, in part, on the Fusion GPS report that was published by BuzzFeed last January.<\/p>\n Read more<\/p>\n The musician said he did not know for sure whether there was collusion between Trump and Russia, but added \u201cwhere there\u2019s smoke, there\u2019s fire.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Moby went on to make some ominous predictions about Trump, saying things are \u201cgoing to get quite a lot darker.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cLike the depth of the Trump family and business, their involvement with organized crime sponsors of terrorism, Russian oligarchs \u2013 like it\u2019s really, really dark.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n However, Moby said he is hopeful that his \u201cfriend and neighbor,\u201d<\/em> Rep. Adam Schiff (D-California), will win in 2018 and take over as head of the House Judiciary Committee.<\/p>\n \u201cThat is when things start to get really serious,\u201d<\/em> Moby said, referring to the Russia probe led by special counsel Robert Mueller.<\/p>\n Moby also said he is grateful for Trump\u2019s incompetence.<\/p>\n \u201cLike, just imagine how much more dangerous he\u2019d be if he was intelligent and had emotional impulse control,\u201d<\/em> Moby said. \u201cI\u2019m really grateful that if we\u2019re going to have a tyrant at least let him be stupid and incompetent.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Moby said his \u201cdream\u201d<\/em> president would be former First Lady Michelle Obama, but accepted it\u2019s \u201cnever going to happen.\u201d<\/em> In lieu of another Obama, Moby said he would like to see either Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Massachusetts) or Senator Kamala Harris (D-California) as the next commander in chief.<\/p>\n \u201cI just really want to hopefully see a female president sooner rather than later,\u201d<\/em> Moby said.<\/p>\n A new poll reveals 48 percent of American voters believe it\u2019s \u201cvery or somewhat likely\u201d President Donald Trump will be cleared in the investigation into alleged collusion with Russia during the 2016 presidential campaign. https:\/\/t.co\/I6bOcU1ijI<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 RT America (@RT_America) January 11, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/center><\/div>\n Last February, Moby wrote a lengthy post on Instagram detailing what his \u201cfriends who work in DC\u201d<\/em> told him about Trump.<\/p>\n The post said the infamous Russian dossier was \u201c100 percent real,\u201d<\/em> adding that Trump was \u201cbeing blackmailed by the Russian government, not just for being peed on by Russian hookers, but for much more nefarious things.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n 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<\/a><\/p>\n A post shared by moby X\u24cbX<\/a> (@moby) on
