Putin wants all their heads now that he controls DoJ.

'It's pretty clear that Trump wants to find out everything the intelligence agencies know about his relationship with Putin. The New York Times had this chilling nugget:

One official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss classified matters, said previously that Mr. Barr wanted to know more about what foreign assets the C.I.A. had in Russia in 2016 and what those informants were telling the agency about how President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia sought to meddle in the 2016 election.'

1. I now believe that Barr is compromised.

And it's terrifying.

We are in deep, deep shit. And Putin is in charge.

[Baitball Blogger]

3. Jesus, really. Can this get any more terrifying?

Barr can give Russia a free run at our elections, by showing them who needs to get Khasoggi'd.

The only thing that might stop him from doing it, is the fact that he's dicking around with our Intelligence Agencies and they might not be too happy to turn into casualties.

4. khashoggi as a verb. :-( so sad. nt

[appal_jack]

6. Agreed, and exactly why impeachment is needed.

I support concurrent impeachment investigations into Trump, Pence, Barr, and Mnuchin as the minimum threshold to ferret-out corruption, and regain American sovereignty.

19. Me too. Drastic measures take drastic action. We are losing everything if we don't act.

26. I'm finally there. nt

8. Putin already has chosen

1) our president
2) numerous members of congress
3) 2 SCOTUS judges

He's well on his way to naming the next British PM this summer. Until he is out of power, the world as we know it is not safe.

[FiveGoodMen]

12. And until he's dead, we can never be sure that he's out of power

[irisblue]

14. That info is never going away, Putin is/was KGB

the KGB became the FSB, the FSB became the FSV. It will be in some Kremlin/adjunct office till humans leave this planet.

[triron]

13. +1000

But the media will never say this. Why?

[tymorial]

16. There's gold in them there hills (Trump's White House)

His constant antics and histrionics are prime for sensationalism and exploitation. There are only a handful of corporations that own the majority of the news media and they rank profit over truth, shareholders over stability, revenue over reason.

The reporters and newscasters may be disgusted but they report to somebody and if they want to keep their jobs they will tow the line

[Grasswire2]

32. and the AG nt

[MBS]

9. Agree on all points

[homegirl]

15. Am I the only

American who remembers this?

Trump open to Russian questioning of former U.S. ambassador ...

Jul 19, 2018 ... Why is Trump open to letting Russia interrogate Americans, ... Not doing so creates moral equivalency between a legitimacy US indictment of Russian intelligence officers and ... Russia has long wanted to get their hands on Bill Browder. ... even considering the idea of allowing Putin to question Americans.

[emmaverybo]

29. So many horrors, I'd forgotten this one. Wanted to feed them Browder and McFaul. nt

[Grasswire2]

33. Ambassador McFaul recounted that the other night on MSNBC -- he was a target!

He was one that Putin wanted to interrogate!!

[orangecrush]

2. Yep

Russia has the key to the henhouse now.

[denbot]

5. Trump already offered Russia FBI Dir Wray

The only reason the Russians would want to interrogate Dir Wray is information to ferret out our counter intel, and assets.

7. Patriots in those intelligence agencies need to step up and expose Barr now!

[MBS]

10. Yes!!!

[emmaverybo]

31. Seconding your yes.

[Generic Other]

11. Will CIA and FBI

compromise sources in a manner that endangers lives and compromises investigations? A frightening question.

[PatrickforO]

17. Trump: traitor and Russian asset

Disgusting worm of a man.

[Mme. Defarge]

18. I need to either take up smoking

or start drinking earlier in the day.

[kag]

20. I'm with you, Mme.

And I hate smoking, so booze it is.

[Mme. Defarge]

24. Knitting only goes so far...

A vôtre santé!!!🍷🍷

[murielm99]

22. It is so tempting

to go back to smoking.

[Blue_true]

35. Hell, you may want to skip alcohol and go straight to Draino.

I see where you are coming from. I have never drank alcohol , but more and more it seems tempting when I focus on the news instead of my world.

[BigmanPigman]

21. How did they get rid of John Mitchell during Watergate?

He was in on everything and was the AG. He ended up in jail due to it. Was his wife the one who spilled the beans on him? What is Barr's wife and their marriage like?

[murielm99]

23. He resigned as AG.

He became the chair of Nixon's reelection committee, the aptly named CREEP.

He resigned as AG in 1972.

[BigmanPigman]

25. Damn, we can't go that route than.

[pdsimdars]

27. Is this something that might be important? Turning our assets over to Putin. Are we there yet?

[lapfog_1]

28. yup... this is the real reason to investigate the investigation

as soon as Barr gets those names of Russian assets they will go straight to Vladdy.

Treason... is not Comey or Wray, or anyone in the FBI... it is Trump and his criminal gang.

[dchill]

30. If these TrumPets aren't criminals...

then what are they?

[Grasswire2]

34. Brennan and Clapper were mentioned as targets today, too.

I don't recall who said it. A reporter asked Trump who he thought should be charged with treason. He was happy to oblige.
