My God. Rachael is on fire tonight.. So huge.

On Now.. Describing Russian Putin Gas deal which laundered billions of dollars some of which went through N.Y. Real Estate..Was directed and produced by Manafort.. Manafort....Fucked up the deals ... Millions of dollars owed to Russians pro Putin guys.. Manafort takes over Trump campaign.. Debts seem to go away..

Ah The Big One... Seems that all this Money Laundering ( which was based completely around the selling of Russian gas by Putin schemes) was an attempt by Putin to launder gas money through N.Y. to support his attempt to take over the Ukraine.

This is continuing now and I can’t keep up.. Catch the rerun

This story is continuing to explode.. Rachael is now expaining that Trump is now exploring his Pardon Options..

This post is a mess.. like most of my posts

We haven't heard the last of it, either. When there's talk of pardons, we're in brand new territory.

Right before commercial break, she said: "Things are happening very fast now...stay tuned!"

...commercial break...

After commercial break, she said: "You know how right before the commercial, I said things are going very fast now? So, during the commercial...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!....I thought we wouldn't hear this until the end of the summer! We just got news from the Washington Post (regarding Trump asking about pardons)

A pardon is admission of guilt. The one single greatest crisis since the Civil War and two World Wars. Even Nixon would not go this low.
