Sigh. The usual overblown nonsense. I read what Trump said, and to me it's mostly spot on, although as usual there are liberal reporters looking around for a fainting couch every time he tweets or says something.

Like Ginger says, the false equivalency is something to behold. But it's worse than that...

"Liberal reporters"? There's a considerable number of prominent conservatives who are participating in this "overblown nonsense".

What a load of empty crap.
 
Julian Assange told a U.S. congressman on Tuesday he can prove the leaked Democratic Party documents he published during last year’s election did not come from Russia and promised additional helpful information about the leaks in the near future.

Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, a California Republican who is friendly to Russia and chairs an important House subcommittee on Eurasia policy, became the first American congressman to meet with Assange during a three-hour private gathering at the Ecuadorian embassy in London, where the WikiLeaks founder has been holed up for years,

Rohrabacher recounted his conversation with Assange to The Hill.

“Our three-hour meeting covered a wide array of issues, including the WikiLeaks exposure of the DNC emails during last year's presidential election,” Rohrabacher said, “Julian emphatically stated that the Russians were not involved in the hacking or disclosure of those emails.
Pressed for more detail on the source of the documents, Rohrabacher said he had information to share privately with President Donald Trump.

“Julian also indicated that he is open to further discussions regarding specific information about the DNC email incident that is currently unknown to the public,” he added.

Nothing major, but perhaps somewhat interesting...

Profexer, whose real identity is unknown, wrote and sold malware on the dark web. The intelligence community publicly identified code he had written as a tool used in the hacking of the Democratic National Committee ahead of last year’s presidential election.​

I'd like to get angry about this possibility but Uncle Vlad is an unrepentant murderer of his political enemies. I can imagine that being a factor in such a decision.

Brainster, regarding the liberal reporters you blame for the state of affairs... Is Romney a dupe of the liberal reporters? Corker? Rubio? The members of Trump's business council? Military leaders? Flake? Sasse? Bush1 and Bush2? I could go on at some length.

When you're unable to produce specific evidence, that's a red flag that you're foisting BS.

Fredo is in the crosshairs.

Federal prosecutors working for special counsel Robert Mueller are focusing keenly on the president’s son, Donald Trump Jr., and are trying to determine his intent when he attended a controversial June 9, 2016, meeting with a Russian lawyer, according to a source familiar with the investigation.

Trump Jr. has acknowledged that he was looking for negative information about Hillary Clinton when he, as well as Jared Kushner and then-campaign manager Paul Manafort, met with the lawyer. But he claimed he did not receive any useful opposition research.

The source familiar with the investigation said that prosecutors have been trying to determine exactly what information was provided and are scrutinizing Trump Jr.’s statements about the meeting.

Requesting or accepting anything of value for a presidential campaign from a foreign national violates federal election law, legal experts told BuzzFeed News.

Trump Jr.'s attorney, Alan Futerfas, did not respond to calls or an email requesting comment.

In much the same way I describe my self as "the best mediocre rhythm guitarist in Parker County", "liberal" becomes "anyone with opinions to the left of mine"...

Yes!

Of course.

RINOs, every one.

Probably more than dupes. They egged the reporters on.

How many of them are or know someone who is a Freemason?

Answer me that!

ETA: Some of them even go to work with known liberals on a regular basis. Try to 'splain that away.

Well, yes. Is there any opinion more valuable to me than my own?
By simple definition, I promote anyone I consider better than myself to either (a) doesn't live in Parker County, or (b) good, superior, or excellent rhythm player, and thus preserve my position as best in class.
Works for anyone you wish to denigrate, as well, by simply modifying the premises.

Exclusive: Top Trump aide's email draws new scrutiny in Russia inquiry

Washington (CNN) — Congressional investigators have unearthed an email from a top Trump aide that referenced a previously unreported effort to arrange a meeting last year between Trump campaign officials and Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to sources with direct knowledge of the matter.​

Trump was trying to make a giant Moscow hotel deal while he was running for President, and was told it would help him if he praised Putin:

And the hits keep on coming... This link has more of the substance of the back and forth emails between Cohen and Sater https://www.theguardian.com/us-news...lin-about-real-estate-project-during-campaign

My favorite quote, “Our boy can become president of the USA and we can engineer it,” Sater said, according to an email published by the New York Times. “I will get all of Putin’s team to buy in on this, I will manage this process.”

In another email, Sater looked forward to the eventual ribbon-cutting on a Trump Tower in the Russian capital. “I will get Putin on this program and we will get Donald elected,” he wrote. :jaw-dropp:jaw-dropp:jaw-dropp

And don't forget Trump saying he had no business interests in Russia and no loans out from Russian banks.
