We've been swamped by glowing reviews for DRUMPF, yet tonight the Russia thing is on top with a NYTimes reporter Matthew ROSENBERG being showcased with breaking news "OBAMA White House left trail of Russia-Trump..."
WILLIAMS reading "American allies .... intelligence agencies .... contacts " between DRUMPF & Russia

(10,252 posts)The Thurs morning talk shows won't talking about Trump's soft-edged SOTU speech. That's all over now. The talk shows will be about Jeff Sessions lying to Congress and Obama-admin operatives leaving a trail of bread crumbs to follow. I'm guessing that to divert from the Trump-Russia problem, Bannon will release the 2.0 deport Muslim's EO.

(1,089 posts)and at this point that's fine with me. Let it all come raining down in one huge tsunami and then perhaps we can restore some order to this government when the dust settles and these traitors are in prison.

(61,695 posts)They need to show how 45 and his campaign helped russia fix our election. Traitorous behavior.

(1,089 posts)but something tells me there's a lot more than pee videos out there. If that's all there was, Drumpf would just do what he does and deny it, even if it was on video. He's in this with them up to his eyes. There's no other explanation that's even close to logical. He's dumped on every group, every nationality, women, seemingly every ally, several other countries, etc. The only country/autocrat he's never, ever insulted is Russia and Pooty.

(10,252 posts)We all know that Trump is corrupt as it comes and not above colluding with the NY mob, when he started building his real estate empire. When his bankruptcies started hitting him, he looked around for easy bailout money. Low and behold Russian illegal money from looting the Russian state, illegal arms sales, drugs, who knows what and wherever was easily available to invest in and shore up Trump's real estate empire. All disguised as "loans" from foreign banks and phony foreign shell investment companies. Why do you think Trump won't release his tax returns? Duuhhh
Follow the money!

McCaffrey: russia is also a physical threat to western europe.
Paraphrased: There has to be an arc between the hacking of our election and the praise 45 heaps on putin.

The question is - why isn't she on this panel? Andrea Mitchell has been in Trump's corner for far too long.
This story isn't just about Jeff - its about Donald. He made this happen. He is involved - she would have highlighted that.
