CNN is breaking right now that U.S. Intelligence sources have verified sections of the Russian dossier (yes, THE dossier compiled by a former MI6 agent) in terms of the communications details between "foreign nationals," including Russian nationals, who were "heavily involved" in collecting damaging info on Hillary Clinton (some of the foreign nationals were supporters of Donald Trump).
This does not verify any of the "salacious" details at this point. CNN definitely wanted to make this clear. The U.S. Intelligence sources have verified aspects of the communications between foreign nationals. I am sorry -- this is somewhat vague but this is the extent of what they are saying. Since Trump, Spicer, et al are still denying all of this -- this plus the stories that Fynn lied about discussing sanctions against Russia in his phone call -- which is now being contradicted while Flynn claims that he "can't remember" is just so outrageous. The fact that our leaders are allowing such BLATANT interference from Russia ffs is STILL shocking to me.
Now we have Rep. Ted Yoho (R) screaming that the judges in WA should have "something happen to them" for getting in Trump's way. Now Yoho is saying that we are wasting our time worrying about Flynn lying to Mike Pence and to the American people about discussing the sanctions w/Russia.
"I am shocked I tell you!"

(100,081 posts)While in the next breath they say we should "respect the law". Lock up Trump, Pence, that whole damn cabinet, all his enablers in Congress, and all his lackeys on AM hate radio. They're all guilty of this.
Russian sympathizers. Traitors. Get them out of power. Into jail. Now.

(22,007 posts)Trump et al is guilty of conspiring with the Russians (includes Putin and the FSB) to steal the election for the presidency away from Hillary Clinton and numerous congressional and probably a couple senate seats as well.
HRC ought to be in the WH and dems ought to have control of the senate. We have been jettisoned into an alternate reality by this cabal.

(74 posts)This Yoho character knows perfectly well what kind of low-life weasel Trump is. Is the chance for some executive branch office enough of an incentive to induce congresspersons like him to make fools of themselves with statements like this? Or, has one of his peers awakened with a horse's head in bed with him, or do they take some kind of tutorial or training when they get to Washington which includes having their brains washed until they think it's perfectly fine & part of their job to say idiotic stuff, right out in public? Although, based on my casual observations, Ted Yoho is kind of a dim bulb...I had just assumed it was their way of grandstanding for the wealthiest brothers on the planet, et al, whose name I won't dignify by typing it.
