I'm totally convinced Pence is as deeply involved with the Russian shit as Trump is...

...you're telling me that a seven-year old child (mentally) would be involved in this without adult supervision? Think Dubya/Cheney on steroids. If this explodes, the constitutional crisis will make Watergate look like a tiddly-winks game. I think *the* political crisis of our time probably won't be getting rid of Trump, but whether or not Pence will be regarded as a legitimate President.

i doubt Putin has a ton of patience for dealing with man-child Trump, he has his own kingdom to rule, and i doubt his deep-cover ops people want to waste time with Trump either
so he's probably working through operatives connected to Bannon, Pence, and a few others close to presidency without actually contacting Trump except through standard diplomatic channels

The 9/11 Commission was a sham.

And any commission which investigates the Russian involvement in our government is likely to be a sham too.

Political and business interests align with international capitalists and collude
with a foreign sovereign state to gain power, plunder the country, and enact
a radical social, political, and economic agenda.

You'd have to investigate it, prove it, and have the political muscle to
separate out the traitors, right the ship of state, and defend the nation.

It's a plot worthy of Robert Ludlum.
