[Eliot Rosewater]

1. Clearly Putin was giving trump orders and trump didnt want us to know.

I read what I type there, and I realize I am not exaggerating, I get really fucking angry when I read that which I just typed.

That is the problem with us patriots.

[spanone]

2. this stuff is really hard to believe....and most of his base, doesn't believe it.

'fake news'

4. DW said it best

Link to tweet

Patriots of the FBI and DoJ care about protecting America and don’t give a flying fuck about your stupid partisan bullshit

[tazkcmo]

3. Evan McMullin said this, too.

On Rachel last night. Unsurprising.

5. Rachel talked about that last night. All Russian communications

so far have been kept from the US public until the Russians post them on their national TV or on Twitter or the internet. It’s really messed, imo.

6. Reminds me of when we only saw the pictures of 45 with Sergey Lavrov after Tass published them,

the US press having been kept in the dark.

"The first photos of President Donald Trump's meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov to be made public came from the Russian government, not the White House.

The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs tweeted a photo of Trump and Lavrov shaking hands in the Oval Office. The Russian Embassy followed on Twitter with a photo of Trump smiling as he shook hands with Sergey Kislyak, Russia's ambassador in Washington. Kislyak has been a key figure in investigations of alleged ties between Trump associates and the Russian government.

The White House barred the news media from Trump's meeting with Lavrov. The only photographers in the room were the official White House photographer and a photographer from Tass, a state-run news agency. Journalists typically cover portions of meetings between the president and heads of state or government. But it's not uncommon for meetings with lower-level officials to occur without press coverage.

Journalists were later allowed into the Oval Office and found Trump sitting alone with Henry Kissinger, who was national security adviser and secretary of state in the Nixon and Ford administrations."

x 1,000,000,000,000

[spanone]

11. yes, the u.s. press was barred from the white house that day....

[Clarity2]

12. And then

he gave them classified Israeli intel, which still infuriates me, and he should have been impeached just based on that. I mean, wtf.

[lpbk2713]

7. I heard that on NPR a while ago.

El Trumpo initiated the phone call.

Obviously he was looking for guidance.

[Botany]

8. It was a coup and we have treason

n/t

[Raster]

10. YES! The first we Americans heard about the call...

... was from TASS, the Russian News Agency.

[kentuck]

13. Trump slips a call to Putin and American press discover it from Kremlin sources?

Sounds like a more honest way to report it?

[Achilleaze]

14. republicans have sold out America

TreasonWeasels

[delisen]

15. Why surprised? Trump is Putin's vassal, he's not our president

Putin installed him in the Oval Office and Putin is the entity to whom he must respond. He does not recognize any obligation to us, much less have an obligation to listen.

16. "Send lawyers guns and money -- Vlad, get me out of this!"

17. Rachel stated that last nite.

[40RatRod]

...Mueller has a recording of the conversation.

[TheCursedOne]

19. Pimping isn't easy...... But somebody got to do it.....!!

Trump is a partisan political prostitute and he was calling in to his (Russian Pimp) Putin on his progress to sell his ass (USA) out ..... The Russian/German banks are into his ass for 750 million $$$$ in loans for his Trump properties... We as Americans are going to need a lot of "lube" before it over.....
