Just a guess on my part, but having read a lot on Russian intel operations since the cold war, it is not uncommon for a Russian intel agent to be wearing a super invisible recording device when meeting people that they either want to recruit or compromise. In this case, I will not be surprised if they were not recording Don Jr or Kushner, or the many other Trump associates who were meeting them to discuss lifting of sanctions on Russia in exchange for dirt on Hillary Clinton. NSA might as well have secret recordings of conversations and if those recordings exist, then the entire Trump crew might be screwed, as they say.

(1,257 posts)AN even though it seems likely that the Russkies did in fact help to install the absurd regime we have in place, it seems to me that they would not necessarily support that idiot regime in a positive way.
If they just wanted to cause constant chaos, which is likely, they would throw these morons to the sharks as well to perpetuate the unrest, civil instability, and weakened government agencies that we see going on around us every fucking day.
I for one, would love to know just what the end goal is to all of this inhuman and deceitful madness.
I see nothing other than the potential for complete destruction of democratic societies as we know them, and perhaps our habitable biosphere.
But then what?
The lizard aliens take over as planned now that the climate is warmer, and we become food?
Do the looney Scientologists actually have it right!
Oh lordy, sumbuddy hep me out here!

(16,423 posts)They gave a 4-foot-long wooden sculpture to somebody as a present. It looked like the horns of an animal. Of course, the sculpture was scanned for bugs and nothing was found. Wood. So they put it up on a wall.
Turned out...
Inside the wood was a thin and sensitive metal rod. An antenna. The wood was a resonance-body amplifying the vibrations of the sound hitting the sculpture. So the russians sent an electromagnetic signal to the antenna, the antenna received the signal and emitted a signal that was modified by the sound-vibrations. The Russians just had to filter the second signal and they could hear what was being said.
