Fmr. FBI Official: ‘This Is A Full-On Attack On Our 2020 Election’ | The Last Word | MSNBC
Putin is not about to let go of his most prized possession in the Oval Office.
When it comes to Trump, it really doesn’t matter which roads you take. You can take the highways, the interstate, back roads, country roads, or dirt roads. They will all lead straight back to Russia.
Did you copy paste this comment I’ve seen it identically in another comment section
Hey David J. I’ve come across your brilliant posts once again. I’m still wondering whether you are David Cay Johnson, or are just taking his moniker. Either way, I always agree with you. Keep up the good work buddy. We gotta keep chipping away at Trumps base, if that’s at all possible.
That’s because he owes the Russian mafia alot of money for all the laundering he did for them. The problem is they can’t touch him until Putin’s done with him. This corrupt pos is deeeeeeep in them Russian pockets. Mark my words
Just remember “every vote matters” lol yeah right
ty mr o’donnell, rep welch, and mr figliuzzi, very well said.
We no longer trust Trump, Putin, Moscow Mitch, Flimsey Graham. SO, just vote Trump out PERIOD !!!!!!!!!!
@William Hutchinson poor baby, your party tells you that facts aren’t facts. I understand your confusion
Well at least you’ve awoken from your slumber. Don’t fall asleep again.
Blue all the way!
Get trump out of the whitehouse!! He and the GOP needs REMOVED!!
just me and arrested
Well if your state is still using machines instead of paper ballots, then you’re open to every kind of interference but primarily from our own political parties.
Cathy Morrone Exactly.. This should be the main talking point. Everywhere.
China has granted a trademark for Ivanka Trump-branded voting machines – WHY ??
What?
@hv ac my thought exactly. why would sgw even need voting machines.
In 2015, Western European intelligence agencies began picking up evidence of communications between the Russian government and people in Donald Trump’s orbit. In April 2016, one of the Baltic states shared with then–CIA director John Brennan an audio recording of Russians discussing funneling money to the Trump campaign. In the summer of 2016, Robert Hannigan, head of the U.K. intelligence agency GCHQ, flew to Washington to brief Brennan on intercepted communications between the Trump campaign and Russia..
The contents of these communications have not been disclosed, but what Brennan learned obviously unsettled him profoundly. In congressional testimony on Russian election interference last year, Brennan hinted that some Americans might have betrayed their country. “Individuals who go along a treasonous path,” he warned, “do not even realize they’re along that path until it gets to be a bit too late.” In an interview this year, he put it more bluntly: “I think [Trump] is afraid of the president of Russia. The Russians may have something on him personally that they could always roll out and make his life more difficult.”
In July 2016, a loose-knit community of computer scientists and cybersecurity experts discovered a strange pattern of online traffic between two computer servers. One of those servers belonged to Alfa Bank in Moscow and the other to the Trump Organization. Alfa Bank’s owners had “assumed an unforeseen level of prominence and influence in the economic and political affairs of their nation,” as a federal court once put it.
The analysts noted that the traffic between the two servers occurred during office hours in New York and Moscow and spiked in correspondence with major campaign events, suggesting it entailed human communication rather than bots. More suspiciously, after New York Times reporter Eric Lichtblau asked Alfa Bank about it but before he brought it up with the Trump campaign, the server in Trump Tower shut down. The timing strongly implied Alfa Bank was communicating with Trump..
Mary Lynne
Thank you. I figured out what IT was immediately.
David J – thank you. I had forgotten about all that stuff. And not because it’s not important, but because every day there seems to be something new concerning this administration. Hard to keep up !
Patrick Bullard – indeed. The story of the trump presidency will keep historians busy for years!
@des beinke You believe in a “Russia hoax”? Democrat (as you claim) or not, you’re definitely a Trump supporter.
As if t’rump supporters need actual facts to believe their stupid conspiracy theories. 🤔😆😅
Meh, for trumper, fact is fake, voices in trump’s head is fact 😂😂😂
@Billy Bloggs dumb pos traitor enabler
I just got a trump approval rating add and the options were great, good, okay. Haha not even an option to disapprove, and that tells you everything you need to know about the trump administration.
Did you finish it? They won’t even let you submit if you don’t donate. And those are set e auto recurring too.
One hundred percent positive approval from all responding participants. Seems like a survey to find zealots rather than gather data.
Tim M haha no I didn’t finish it but that totally sounds like a trump move charging to vote in polls.
Impeach Trump once more for assassination of a foreign leader without Congressional approval.
But Obama..is gone torchy.
Your fearless orange leader has sold us to the Russians to pay his mortgage.
@TORCH c5 And your point is??? Even if that were true (and I’m not saying it is), how would that excuse the assassination of Soleimani?
snowengelhd.life/SbQowmV0rLor
@des beinke don’t forget t is a pedophile. when some people say he is “doting”
maybe he’s just “grooming” for his future
needs.
@TORCH c5 yes obama did, and trump also, and bush jr, and clinton, impeach and remove them all.
Oh wait, impeachment is for sitting president only 😂😂😂
Obama did wrong, doesn’t mean trump being right, he’s also wrong.
putin will do anything to keep his asset in the WH
Treason / voter suppression worked so well last time and there was no punishment. So why WOULDN’T the GOP do the exact same thing to keep power in 2020?
I’m not RUSSIAN to conclusions, but I think Trump is a puppet.
Just PUTIN it out there. You don’t like it; CRIMEA river.
Putin: Where can I get some one to cripple the USA?
Trump: Vlad I’m ‘ere
Ann Van de Kew – love your statement…..very captivating.
Lol….love it 😂😂😂
Wow, Ann, well said in a very creative way. Every word is true.
😂
This should be enough to disqualify chump 45 from being on the ballot
@Mind Freshener look. A bot.
No way.
This can’t be true.
Russian Military Intelligence hacked the emails to get information on the lying orange puppet ‘s opponent in the United States presidential election?
I have President Putin here, he says it wasn’t Russia.
snowengelhd.life/_o9oj_gw28sr
Putin has been planning the fall of America for years! He now has the right person in the seat to make it happen. If no one can see this they are either blind, deaf, or stupid! America has been attacked three times first it was 9/11, 2016, and now 2020….
YOU ALL ALLOWED THIS AND HIM.
All the stuff that happen to Iran, we all knew Russia was the country that controllers United States
Trump is just a student when it comes to puttin
It’s Russia trying to plant info to sow discord and not stealing info.
Trump and his administration has ushered the demise of the usa.
