She was mounting "a multipronged attack against the Magnitsky Act, an American law that blacklists suspected Russian human rights abusers. The law so enraged Mr. Putin that he retaliated by halting American adoptions of Russian children." Literally everything about it suggests she was backed by the Kremlin. The only thing missing is a written confession. So yeah like I said before: I feel like if Donny slapped you across the face you'd still argue that without a written confession it's likely his hand just accidentally brushed your cheek. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z316/CeliaOfTheSky/Pinky0926.jpg ...

Can someone explain the situation to me? I've been out of the loop I guess. https://newrepublic.com/minutes/143812/donald-trump-jr-just-handed-smoking-gun-russia-trump-collusion-case To sum up: Goldstone explicitly states that the intelligence is coming from the Russian government. Goldstone also explicitly states that the Russian government supports Donald Trump in his race against Hillary Clinton. Trump Jr. gives the green light without hesitation. Then he invites Paul Manafort and Jared Kushner to the meeting, forwards them a copy of the email chain, and they attend. They meet with Natalia Veselnitskaya, a lawyer with ties to the Kremlin. (Amazingly, Goldstone offers to forward the invitation to Trump himself, through a secretary, which means Trump Jr., by responding to this offer of dirt with such celerity, might have unwittingly acted as a shield for his father.) --- kin to all that throbs ...

Can someone explain the situation to me? I've been out of the loop I guess. A lawyer contacted the Trump campaign claiming she had info on Hillary Clinton. Trump Jr. and Manifort went to see her, and it turned out she was full of it, so they left. Now in an effort to cling onto what little credibility they have, CNN is using the fact that the lawyer lives in Russia to insist that they were right all along about Trump being cozy with the Russian government...even though the lawyer doesn't actually work for the Russian government. --- Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. -George Orwell ...

Trump won't be legally punished because Republicans are the only ones with the power to punish him, and they would abide far worse than this before thinking about acting against him.

Does the dullard not understand what "intent" means? If I go into an Arby's with the intent of robbing them and finding out they have no money in the cash register... I still would have done something wrong. I think Trump's whole family is going to wind up in prison eventually (except for Melania) if they keep making good life choices like this. --- ...

So why is it wrong for candidates to try and find dirt on their opponents? Literally every candidate seeks it out. I think the defining factor in this controversy is that another country is providing the dirt, thus interfering with the election of another country.
