"SNIP...........


trove of emails obtained by The New York Times shows that officials in President Donald Trump’s campaign and transition teams were fully aware that now-ousted national security adviser Mike Flynn was in contact with officials from the Russian government — in spite of their public insistence that Flynn was acting alone.

“In fact, the emails, coupled with interviews and court documents filed on Friday, showed that Mr. Flynn was in close touch with other senior members of the Trump transition team both before and after he spoke with the Russian ambassador, Sergey I. Kislyak, about American sanctions against Russia,” said the Times.

On Dec. 29, deputy national security director K. T. McFarland told a friend via email that Russia had just “thrown the election” to Trump over his rival, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

The emails obtained by the Times show a concerted effort by the Trump transition team to soothe Russia’s misgivings about the sanctions and assure the rival nation that the U.S. doesn’t mean it any harm.

1. Media will tell us this is a Banana someone should make issue of this email EVERY SINGLE TIME !!!

2. Is there a copy of the entire email?

Would like to see the entire context of the conversation and email chain before getting excited. This is happening almost daily, someone publishes a sentence and a day or two later has to issue a retraction, casting doubt in the public's mind that the media is reporting facts.

3. So suddenly, after

the surprise win they all became best buddies?

4. And as Trump admitted he knew Flynn lied to the FBI he made sure to add Flynn "lied to

Mike Pence" at the same time.
