We don't know why he went to Russia but he has worked with the campaign.

dangling that fact in front of Kingston last night. I don't watch much CNN so I don't know her name but she honed right in on Jack's Russia trip and Don Lemon interrupted her to go to commercial before Jack could respond...not that he could have said anything coherent...he's a moron.

4. from NPR: Trump's Men In Moscow: Trump Disciples Suddenly Showing Up In Russia

Donald Trump hasn't been inaugurated yet, but members of his campaign entourage are already riding the president-elect's coattails all the way to Moscow.

On Monday, Jack Kingston, a former Trump surrogate, briefed American businesspeople in Russia on what they might expect from the incoming administration.

Lifting Western sanctions that were imposed on Russia because of its armed intervention in Ukraine has become the top priority not only for the Kremlin but for foreign companies working in Moscow.

During the campaign, Trump indicated he would reconsider those sanctions and suggested he would get along fine with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

(Jake Tapper, of course, excluded. Because I know one day he's going to show up at my front door and ask me to run away with him.)

They seem to feel compelled to include "opposing views" on every issue. While it's true that every issue has more than one side, not all sides are equal, and some sides should not be given air time. People like Jack Kingston, who have no credentials I know of to make him an expert on anything, is an example of someone whose opinions are of zero weight. He is nothing but a flack, like so many RWers CNN trots out to "balance" a story. Balance my ass--it's like a flea playing seesaw with an elephant.

As I watch him spewing lie after lie I just keep wishing his head would explode on live TV.

That is what I wish would happen when I watch Trump, Sarah Huckabee, Kellyanne Conway,

Republican politicians, Jeff Sessions, Bannon, Manafort, and the list goes on and on.

They are a waste of oxygen, food, and water.

They are EVIL LIARS destroying this country intentionally.

The world would be a better place without them.

I hope when their children grow up that they hate and disown them. (It is too late for the Trump children.

They are as EVIl as their father.)

Kingston's is only second to Jeff Sessions' in terms of totally getting on my last nerve.
