For an Administration that has long complained about the effort of “the deep state” to undermine President Trump, the most recent leak detailed in the Washington Post will confirm an openly hostile intent by people within the intelligence community. The Post published accounts of how Russia’s ambassador to Washington Sergey Kislyak told his superiors in Moscow that he discussed campaign-related matters with then Sen. Jeff Sessions during the 2016 presidential race. If true, the account would conflict with Sessions earlier denials.
The leak detailed two conversations with Sessions that were intercepted by U.S. intelligence operations. Sessions previously failed to recall meetings with Kislyak who was one of the Russians in the controversial meeting with Trump in the Oval Office the day after the termination of Comey. Sessions has insisted that he never discussed campaign issues with the Russians. Sessions said in March that “I never had meetings with Russian operatives or Russian intermediaries about the Trump campaign.”
An official is quoted as accusing Sessions of misleading Congress on his dealings with the Russians. Current and former U.S. officials said that assertion is at odds with Kislyak’s accounts of conversations during two encounters over the course of the campaign, one in April ahead of Trump’s first major foreign policy speech and another in July on the sidelines of the Republican National Convention.
The conversations do not appear to have involved Sessions directly but are merely the account of Kislyak. Moreover, there may be a question as to whether Kislyak overstated his conversations or intentionally made the statements with the knowledge that he was being monitored. However the article also quotes officials as saying that Kislyak has conveyed accurate accounts during these calls.
The story will likely raise new issues for Sessions, who has already recused himself from the investigation. The Justice Department however has blasted the report as unsubstantiated. Justice Department spokeswoman Sarah Isgur Flores issued the following statement:
“Obviously I cannot comment on the reliability of what anonymous sources describe in a wholly uncorroborated intelligence intercept that the Washington Post has not seen and that has not been provided to me, but the Attorney General stands by his testimony from just last month before the Senate Intelligence Committee when he specifically addressed this and said that he ‘never met with or had any conversations with any Russians or any foreign officials concerning any type of interference with any campaign or election.'”
Obama in 2012 meeting with Russian caught on mic with reporters bulbs flashing:
This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility.
Russian President Medvedev: I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir, and I stand with you.”
In other words, I have to wait or I won’t get re-elected.
The Left have only a ONE TRACK MIND and do not want to go with reality. Check.
This is not analogous to the Trump situation. Obama was already president and had some bargaining power because of that. The alleged Trump team overtures to the Russians occurred before he was elected, or when he was in the transition. In both cases, he attempted to undercut, at a minimum, the administration in power.
Trump’s quid prop quo clearly involves personal financial dealings. No reporting at all that Obama had the same.

China (The Washington Post), as a communism, carefully monitors its citizens for subversive, controversial, or otherwise unwanted behaviors, or beliefs.
The Washington Post is now the government and any speech they deem controversial or against their higher beliefs will be published for the greater good of their beliefs, because their moral beliefs are higher than the low life’s we are.
So they decide what conversation should be public and what should not.
They can accept and expose illegal leaks, (Black Sites) and their hands are clean because they are the only ones who knows what is good. The Washington Post is king in the USA and they rule this country.
Be careful, the Washington Post may be monitoring you.
Are all tRump supporters stupid or just the ones assigned to this blog?
Are all redistributionist globalists seeking the abrogation of American sovereignty traitors
or just the ones assigned to this blog?
The lack of any nuance or fundamental logic to most of the posts lead me to believe they’re either ‘bots or Albanian teenagers hired by Mother-Russia’s Putin to support the clown.
this is in response to Ynot’s intuitive contribution.
Unfortunately there are enough toothless individuals in the U.S.
Trimp Putin bots are out in force when trouble hits.
There was no more fervent, puppy-doggish, completely loyal Trump supporter than Jeff Sessions from the start of the campaign. Sessions’ appropriate recusal has tormented Trump ever since it happened. The way Trump is treating him now shows exactly the kind of loyalty that he gives in return to his supporters. ZERO. I hope Sessions hangs in there and refuses to quit no matter what Trump throws at him. Let Trump fire him.
And why does JT assume the IC leaked this information? People in WH with high-level security clearances could have been briefed on this, also.
Lastly, did you know that Scaramucci is pro-choice, pro-gay-rights, pro-gun control, and supports the science of climate change? He’s probably working feverishly to delete all those tweets but he’s on the record. But since he declared his love and adoration for the fearless leader at least eight times during the press conference yesterday, I guess that doesn’t matter.
Trumpists, y’all were conned.
Jared and Ivanka won that round of the on going battle with Bannon and Priebus. Add another Goldman/hedgefund guy… Is that 8 now? Power to the little guy and gal. 😉
Very well said boots.
Classic damned if I do….damned if I don’t.
We are immensely proud of our native son from Dixie and remain so.
For a senior Senator of his stature to go out on the limb so early and endorse Trump took huge courage.
His efforts to rally Alabama and especially Mobile became the National battle cry to victory and the Presidential swan song.
Played poorly and 2020 could be out the window.
Sessions gave up his senate seat for Trump and soon he more than likely will be forced out of his AG job by Trump. He will get a good pension but will likely have some legal bills. So much for loyalty to Trump……
Trump’s MO never changes: blind loyalty and obedience to him that will never be returned unless you are his immediate family. If you stray, he will exact his revenge.
Tinkers to Evers to Chance…….
McCarthy to Cohn to Trump…….
Outstanding analogy! The close fit is temporally and substantively adept. Well played.
This is to singin
frankly, What it demonstrates is Session’s loyalty to the country. He is also loyal to Trump, but his view of his role working for the nation first. It proves Sessions to be an honorable man and that Trump is willing to appoint great people even when they don’t agree with him.
The sticking point is that Sessions who is a man of incredible honesty entered a political hothouse where a lot of unethical people reside. Considering what has happened he wasn’t the right man for the job at the time, but that is not due to Trump or Sessions rather due to the unethical behavior of those Democrats in the justice department.
Trump needs to initiate a good Stalinesque purge.
So, the intelligence agencies were spying on a member of Congress. And the WaPoo is down with that.
Nice try, but you get no points. Foreign leaders’ calls to/from the US are routinely monitored by the NSA.
Next time get the facts straight so you don’t look like a moran.
It looks like you are the moron Marco since the intelligence tapes if they exist haven’t been released. The Washington Post is basing their statements on what the Russian ambassador said and if the Russians are involving themselves with our politics and elections as accused then one cannot accept what they say as the truth.
Now repeat after me. Marco is a moron.
Marco – the other problem is that the Trump campaign is being spied on. Trump is right when he said his phones where tapped by Obama. The real question is whose phone where they illegally tapping when then taped the calls.
You forgot to mention those mysterious black helicopters. Also, this flouridation thingy and those wicked vaccines.
This is to tinfoil investor paul
Mark M. – Those black helicopters actually are built and train in S, Phx. I used to see a new trio about once every three months when I live there.
That isn’t what happened. The IC has long monitored Kislyak’s conversations with Moscow and WAPO reported that they overheard him claiming that he had spoken to Sessions. Sessions wasn’t monitored.
Maybe next time, read the article.
David Benson, just simple transparency. Before BO other presidents lives were open books. Didn’t matter, dem or Repub. Some people think it was a scholarship ment for foreign exchange student. “If” that were true then why would an American citizen get a scholarship ment for a forien citizen.
Funny, how Russia is more of a Christian state and America is most certainly a Marxist state. Russia is “evil” in the eyes of the American establishment because it is NON-globalist now. The American establishment pushes the Russian bogeyman in order to feed the existence of NATO and hence the EU. It is our government that is evil.
Obviously, there is a coup-de-etat going on. They call America a democracy, but it is really an Oligarchy, guiding an Idiocracy. An oligarchy of globalist, Marxist elites who are subverting the precious democracy. What this all is a return to the infighting of Roman Empire, Byzantine politics. The presidency is turned into a court drama of intrigue and subterfuge with huge disinformation campaign. Who really runs America is the Intelligence agencies, the CIA, the Trilaterals, and the Morning Joe’s Council of Foreign Relation globalists.
The USA certainly is not Markist. Try reading what Karl Marx actually wrote.
Mr. Benson, I ask you what is taught in every school, college and university? What is the culture of America?
What is being taught everywhere is Political Correctness/Social Justice. That is the culture and ethics of America, now. Political Correctness/Social Justice IS Cultural Marxism. I suggest you read the Italian Marxist theorist Antonio Gramsci that said in effect, Culture defines Politics. The politics of a country is formed by the culture it holds. Change the culture, one changes the politics. Gramsci proffered that Marxism will succeed if it changes the culture. Marxism is not just about economics, but has a cultural side. Why do you think it’s first name was? International Socialism. International Socialism is about doing away with nations and states! What do you think anti-racism is? It is Cultural Marxism. This anti-racial ideology, this international ideology is also found in Freemasonry; i.e. it’s dogma of “The Brotherhood of Man”. America is the first Masonic republic. Freemasonry and Marxism go hand in hand in internationalism. This is why Trump is hated. That is why the establishment and the globalists are trying to destroy him. America is Marxist because it’s culture is Marxist.
In the 1850’s, the New York Herald, whose editor was Horace Greeley, printed over 400 articles signed by Marx and Engels! Abe Lincoln was a voracious reader of the Herald and friends with Greeley. One of Lincoln’s favorite sayings was “Labor must control Capital”. (Source: “The ‘S’ Word, A Short History of An American Tradition: Socialism”. In 1890s, there were over 200 Marxist/Socialist organizations in America. Internationalism, the anti-racism campaign, IS Cultural Marxism. The Open Borders ideology is Judeo-Masonic-Bolshevism. America is a Marxist country.
America has never been a democracy. There has never been a time when all citizens had the right to vote and their choices prevailed.
That’s true, Bettykath. Your 3-year old grandnephew does not have ‘the right to vote’. Neither does your felonious nephew; those are the wages of knocking-over convenience stores. As for ‘choices prevailing’, you might wish to take that up with the party of vote fraud.
America is most certainly a democracy. The modern republican movement started in the Renaissance is democracy; our FFofA re-created the republican form of government into ‘representative government’ which is in-all-but-name, democracy. And contra to Mr. Benson above, America is a Marxist country because it is a democracy:
“Democracy is the road to socialism.” Karl Marx
“Democracy is indispensable to socialism.” Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
“Modern Socialism is inseperable from political democracy.” Elements of Socialism, pg 337.
“The view that democracy and Socialism are inwardly related spread far and wide in the decades which preceded the Bolshevist revolution. Many came to believe that democracy and Socialism meant the same thing, and that democracy without Socialism or Socialism without democracy would not be possible.” Socialism, Ludwig von Mises, pg 67.
“The Western democracy of today is the forerunner of Marxism which without it would not be thinkable.” Adolf Hitler as a young man watching the Social Democracy marches in Vienna. (Mein Kampf, pg 78. Manheim translation, Mariner paperback)
You are right bettykath, America has never been a democracy and our founders never wanted a democracy. Instead we are a Constitutional Republic that uses democratic means. I have said it before and will say it again democracy means that 51% can vote to enslave the other 49% or it could mean a chicken and two wolves get together and the three vote for what will be served at lunch.
The problem is that your voice seems to advocate a totalitarian style of government. If you don’t like the results of the election you will advocate obstructing the nations ability to function. You want your man in at all costs and don’t give a damn about the Constitution which stabilizes the American nation. You want anarchy and destruction of culture to provide you the opportunity to replace an elected government with a dictator that is democratically elected by voters of your own kind.
You may not realize this, but that is what your ideas lead to.
We operate as a Utilitarian Democracy.
Your last sentence is the good news. The Presidency is irrelevant. The others that you mention don’t actually completely agree with each other. As long as the President has little power, there will always be push and pull from different points of view, which is a good thing.
What is the roster of these “Trilateralists?” My program stops at the Queen of England and Henry Kissinger.
This is to plugged-in wheeler
Funny how people defend the Steak Salesman by saying we shouldn’t trust the Russians, meanwhile the D-List Cameo Actor fawns over them incessantly.
Squaring circles must be exhausting.
Makes no sense.
No one here would believe you’ve ever met a sales quota in your life.
Just curious. How do all these leaks happen with the Trump administration, but we can’t find out what kind of scholarship president Obama used to pay for his stay at Occidental college.
Why should you care?
Where is Trump’s birth certificate? The one he released is totally fake, people have said and are saying. What is he hiding?
I dispatched a team to Queens to find out what’s going on. Unbelievable things they’re finding. I’ll have more in two weeks. Just tremendous.
No need for an investigatory team. It’s pretty clear which of the two Presidents can read, write, and utter complete, coherent, meaningful and grammatically correct sentences.
During most of 2016, Sessions was a Trump campaign supporter, however, he was not selected for AG until after the election. Seems like no one is gunning for Pence. Interesting that Pence comes out of this clean. He is a conventional conservative and would not pose a threat to entrenched deep state interests.
PF – Pence is establishment – pro TPP until he was Trump’s running mate. Multi nationals and Deep State would love to have him in office.
“Trade means jobs, but trade also means security. The time has come for all of us to urge the swift adoption of the Trans Pacific Partnership” 8 Sep 2014
Carrier and GM are laying off.
PeaceFrog, I think you miss the method behind the madness. The left focuses on only a very few people at a time. It Trump suddenly were gone allegations against Pence would start. These allegations have little to do with anyone actually and intentionally doing something wrong. It has to do with the left not accepting the fact that they do not control the White House. All of this is very dangerous and in the end comes down to American lives.
When there was a Democratic President we didn’t see so much antipathy towards the Russians. We had all sorts of reset buttons and the like. The left has always felt a closeness to the Russians and during WW2 and after one had to watch out for them. Today it isn’t convenient for the left politically so they did a complete U Turn. But, that is not good policy either. We have soldiers in the Middle East and so does Russia. Invariably we rub up against one another and invariably we have some common interests. Instead of being able to expand on those common interests the left is forcing us to create a wall. The end product of that is that some of our young American children will lose their lives when it could be avoided. That is the result of the partisanship of the Democrats. The Democrats have no shame nor much consideration for the average American citizen.
Trump hired another ex Goldman hedge fund guy. He likes pretty rich people and does not give a damn about ordinary people. It is a con and fewer and fewer are believing it.
I disagree. The deep state of entrenched, unelected bureaucrats has its own agenda, and party affiliation is much less important to them than is acquiescence. Pence, Bloomberg, or, any other mainstream conservative, would be much more palatable to the deep state, and to Democratic members of Congress, than someone looking to change the status quo. If Teddy Roosevelt were running, the deep state, and its media arm, would be resorting to these same tactics.
If Trump survives a first term, and impeachment seems like a distinct possibility, however, removal by the Senate less so, then expect Pence to blindside him and seek the Party nomination for President. Although this would be a first, he would probably get it. You are reading too much into Party labels. The system is rotten, and they need a figurehead, either Democrat or Republican, who will go along with the program. Pence has already started fundraising, and he is tolerable to entrenched interests:
https://newrepublic.com/article/142752/dont-fear-president-pence-liberals-welcome-him
PeaceFrog, you disagree, but I am not so sure how much disagreement there actually is. “entrenched, unelected bureaucrats has its own agenda”. Absolutely, but their agenda more closely reflects the socialists, Democrats and big government types that include many in the Republican Party. They want to grow government not shrink it. Shrinking government would cost many bureaucrats their jobs.
I don’t consider Bloomberg much of a Conservative and even as Mayor he promoted paternalism. Remember him limiting the size of soft drinks? I can’t adequately judge Pence other than to say he appears more conservative than most Republicans.
When I think of policy I don’t generally think in terms of party labels, but right now the Democrats are acting as a solid block to obstruct everything that the President is involved with. That creates partisanship by necessity. As far as the opinions of all too many talking heads , I find that their opinions are all too frequently wrong and that they pander to different groups and people.
Hey Prof Turley, you conveniently forgot to mention the possibility that the leak may have come from someone in Trump’s camp to put more pressure on Sessions to resign.
Perhaps the leak was done in the hope that, once Sessions resigns, Trump can appoint a lap dog who is willing to fire Mueller.
Why is it that you forgot to mention that possibility? Why do you state that the leak confirms openly hostile intent by people within the intelligence community, without critically examining other possibilities that, if true, would cast Trump in an unfavorable light?
Even some Republicans think the leak came from Trump.
Bingo!
What you people seem to miss is that Sessions would easily resign. No subterfuge is needed.
The differences between Nixon’s Watergate and Trump’s Russiagate.- (1) Watergate was an orchestrated, entirely, domestic threat. (2) No well-funded major media, operated to divide national unity, and to deflect and justify wrong doing in the highest political circles.
American oligarchs began decades ago to dismantle a government of the people, by the people and for the people so as to rule a as colonialists. In so doing, they unleashed the hell of a paranoid U.S. citizenship.
Linda, you have memorized a few lines that actually have a point involving corporatism, but then you intermix your own ideas leading to a confused mess.
Trump’s Russia-gate is domestic as well since there has been no proven collusion between Trump and Putin. That was made up by our domestic media and the Democratic Party. However, your theme seems to be corporatism or oligarchy which has validity. I suggest you look up the major names that have an impact on what is actually happening today. I am not talking about those that are promoting a specific viewpoint such as socialism, free market etc., rather those that are using the prevelent views and their power so that they can unfairly garner more power and money from the American people.
Linda, you have memorized a few lines that actually have a point involving corporatism, but then you intermix your own ideas leading to a confused mess.
Shock-treatments do that to some people.
🙂
Thank you, Don de Drain! I am growing so weary of Turley-the-Rump-apologist’s constant willingness to blame everything on those of us who wouldn’t be caught dead voting for Rump.
The timing of this “leak” clearly points in Rump’s direction, as he tries to get Sessions out so he can fire Mueller. Although I’m not a Session’s fan (far from it!) I was glad to see that he finally grew a pair and said he would stay on.
Trump does not want to fire Sessions because that would cause Trump to lose support in the South. He wants him to quit so he can blame the media or Clinton or Obama for Sessions demise.
“The timing of this “leak” clearly points in Rump’s direction, as he tries to get Sessions out so he can fire Mueller.”
Since Sessions will leave whenever Trump desires he doesn’t need such a leak. Also getting rid of Sessions doesn’t alter the problem of firing Mueller since Sessions already recused himself.
Now it is your turn to prove why what you say above is correct. If you can’t that means that you are just mouthing someone elses words and don’t understand what they mean.
The Russians are masters at the smoke and mirrors of espionage. If the Russian makes a statement via a communications system that he surely knows is being monitored by U.S. intelligence, he obviously will say whatever is in Russia’s interest for us to believe. Which may or may not be the truth. Personally, I wouldn’t believe anything they say. They are playing games here, and by doing so, continuing to interfere with U.S. government operations.
If Sessions resigns and his replacement fires Mueller, all helll will break loose, further destabilizing the United States. Which is a good reason why the Russians might want to help Trump pressure Sessions to resign.
If Trump goes through the normal appointments process and that is a big if, the new appointee would be questioned as to his or her intentions with regards to firing Mueller.
You might want to tell that to the little-eyed Word-Vomiter-in-Chief.
“Word-Vomiter-in-Chief”
I like that description. There is frequently no order or coherent meaning to his words. That description aptly sms it up.
Paul, AT https://www.whitehouse.gov/1600daily is one of his latest speeches. Listen to it and let us no where coherent speech ends.
It is easy to open one’s mouth and let words come out. It is much more difficult to prove those words make sense,
The Russians are masters at the smoke and mirrors of espionage.
Hasn’t helped them over the years.
Yes sessions had endorsed trump but since then sessions has been a big reason for trump’s troubles . We need a fighter not one who would recuse himself at the slightest of growl from corrupt media and democrats
Sessions recused himself after a talk with the official Ethics folks.
nice
Professor Turley, is “justice” ignoring Hillary’s multiple actual crimes, including evidence, and addressing only the theoretical crimes of the Trump administration?
Exactly which brand of corruption is being sold here?
Has American jurisprudence entered the “Twilight Zone?”
George, I hope you and others are aware of this site. http://www.judicialwatch.org
Presently…
Judicial Watch Launches New Election Integrity Lawsuit
IRS Records Missing
Court Update: Weiner Laptop Documents Uncovered
I think we should be making sure everyone is aware of what they are producing especially since Hillary Clinton’s emails are still slowly coming out of the State Department along with all the other stuff.
Allen, s l o w l y is the key word – as Fitton sez at this rate the emails will finally all be revealed by 2020!!
“The State Department was ordered to produce documents to Judicial Watch, and has been processing only 500 pages per month of emails uncovered by the FBI in its investigation into Clinton’s non-government email system. The State Department has produced 17 batches of documents so far. At the current pace, the Clinton emails and other records won’t be fully available for possible release until at least 2020.
On June 15, the FBI provided a new disc of records to the State Department. It turns out this disc contains 7,000 records recovered from Weiner’s laptop which now must be reviewed for potential public release.
Our legal team pushed for all these records to be released more quickly but the Justice Department’s attorney said that her State Department agency client shouldn’t have to push more records out because of supposed diminished interest in Clinton emails “since November”! ”
Diminished interest???? I don’t see how those partisan f#ckers get by with this!
FOIA is a good law, but needs to be beefed up with severe sanctions for non-compliance. As in putting people jail. As it stands, agencies ignore FOIA requests for public records, forcing the requestor to go to court to seek enforcement, and then once a judge orders enforcement, the agency slow walks release of the documents to the point that it undermines the reason for requesting them. “Justice delayed is justice denied.”
TIN – judges should be required to leave the ABA and be completely independent for the rest of their term.
You are right autumn. The bureacracy within Washington runs slow on purpose in an obstructive fashion. The emails are not the only things that aren’t being released in a timely fashion.
Judicial Watch is a great resource something the left hates because they are the ones that have been most prolific in FOIA requests and when those requests are received we read from the raw sources and not the BS the left wing morons spout.
allan – I know the judge has reached the point of anger of over the release of the State Dept emails. They are dribbling out, even now.
Paul, Judicial Watch is one of the few reliable primary sources around. They do the bulk of the FOIA requests. The people of theirs who I have met are smart and know how to get their job done, but all too many people in government want to slow the process down.
Go to Judicial Watch if you haven’t and see what you can do.
The democrats commit actual crimes, admit it, and seem proud of it. Yet, they always get a pass from the media and they never get indicted or prosecuted. Such hypocrisy!
I didn’t realize Clinton is president. Or should we instead focus on the Moron who undeservedly wields actual power.
They want to impeach Clinton as planned. Sorry folks your crook won.
Dave 137 some people actually are able to read and understand so they recognize the double standard that exists. After one year there is no evidence that Trump colluded with the Russians. This was stated by Comey and numerous other, but people like you believe he should be investigated. Though there is no evidence that you beat your wife we could investigate you for beating your wife and even incarcerate you when you raise you little finger to the inquisitor who has you under a hot lamp for hours. For Hillary it is a different story. Evidence of wrong doing has been pouring in for more than a decade. Some of that evidence is from her own mouth yet nothing happens. That is the problem we face.
This double standard is doing great harm to America and its people while enriching all of those in power along with many of the plutocrats.
Mueller’s investigation is in the early stages so how can you claim you know what the conclusion will be. It is going to take a few months at minimum to get the records from the foreign banks.
I guess, frankly you beat your wife as well because you can’t prove you don’t.
“Mueller’s investigation is in the early stages so how can you claim you know what the conclusion will be.” Where above did I state what Mueller’s conclusion will be?
Once again your reading skills have been brought into question.
Learn to read. Mind before fingers.
Some people but apparently not you. You lack of intelligence is frightening but appropriate for what remains of the rethuglican electorate.
Your not You
A lot of words Ynot, but vacuous. I have said a lot that involves content. Go ahead and quote what I have said that is wrong and then provide proof.
You don’t seem to be able to do that. Y Not? Because intellectually you function at a very low level. Prove me wrong and provide quotes and proofs. If you can show me where I erred in fact or lacked logic in my opinion I will thank you because I always appreciate it when someone provides me with things I didn’t previously know.
State something worthy and I will be there. And to be clear, I have yet to read anything you have written that bears serious discussion. Grow up.
Ynot – so far you are the king of not having anything serious to say. All you can do is insult people.
I am waiting for you to quote my words and tell me what is wrong. You can’t, because you are a joke. You add nothing. You are too simple to hold a discussion based upon facts.
My closest quote to your insulting comment was:
““Mueller’s investigation is in the early stages so how can you claim you know what the conclusion will be.” Where above did I state what Mueller’s conclusion will be?”
Go ahead and see if you are able to use your brain and refute what I said.
I doubt you will because you don’t have it in you.
allan – are you responding to me or Ynot?
I tried again, but hings are being misplaced. The repeat was also directed towards YNot.

Trump fires Sessions and the dupes dump on Sessions, all Sessions’ fault, Trump is still the cat’s a**. Regardless of whether the Russians are playing this whole thing, whether it’s a dem thing, whatever; Trump and his mutts are still stupider than a sack of hammers for letting the Russians in. We need to know more, release the tax records. What has Trump got to be afraid of; after all it’s all just a witch hunt, fake news, evil media, etc.
“Trump and his mutts are still stupider than a sack of hammers for letting the Russians in.”
Just curious for the facts. How did Trump let the Russians in?
Allan–I believe he let the Russians into Isaac’s brain!
Duh? Read a newspaper.
Issac, the newspapers haven’t provided such an answer or at least haven’t provided the proof.
Obviously you think I am wrong so provide the proof that what you say about letting the Russians in “Trump and his mutts are still stupider than a sack of hammers for letting the Russians in.” is true.
We already you can’t for over and over again you have made claims that were never backed up with proof.
Let’s hear the proof. Go to your newspapers and find it and then quote from the newspaper and underline whatever you believe constitutes proof.
Coulda had Bernie. But nooooo, It’s HER turn or whatever she stood for. It’s your fault Issac, you and your ilk are the ones to blame for your own misery.

As disgusting as Clinton was, is, and would have been; she is still infinitely more competent than Trump. Trump now has Putin’s hand up his butt. This is directly due to Trump’s arrogance, ‘I can do anything’, privileged, megalomanic personality. How else can you explain the consistent lies and tweeting nonsense? It’s not a question of sleaze. Both Clinton and Trump are sleazy. It’s a question of being mentally unbalanced. Clinton, in all her scumbaggery, sleaze, etc. is not mentally unbalanced. Trump is. Disregarding the media coverage, don’t you get the feeling that Trump is simply out of control, overwhelmed, and has no idea of that or what to do. This is a guy that for years when he was flogging condos to the mega wealthy had his ‘man’ precede him into each room to make sure all those waiting stood up when Trump entered. The inbred rulers of Europe’s dynasties exhibited the same problems. You put a mentally unbalanced person in the position of oligarch, ruler, dictator, and one tends to worship the position and not notice the imbecile holding court. Loyalty, incessant tweeting, responding to every cheap missive, can’t keep his mouth shut, surrounds himself with family and ‘loyal’ friends, approx. 500 lies in his first six months, statements that border or and cross into the bizarre, and on and on. Whatever your gripes with Obama and Clinton, and they both were and are deficient to varying degrees regardless of party view, they were in control. There is a certain degree of sociopathic perspective necessary to be a leader. Trump, the real estate developer, takes that to never seen before levels. Not Presidential Material.
Issac, please accept the fact that we have a different type of sociopath as President.
The current paradigm for running for POTUS has made it convenient for sociopaths to rise to the top of the bull pen.
The thing you have to remember is the office itself is much more durable than you project it to be even based on your standards that would consider HRC to be POTUS.
“As disgusting as Clinton was, is, and would have been; she is still infinitely more competent than Trump.”
— Wrong. Based on what, exactly? Media talking points? Or did you actually believe Barack Obama’s campaign speeches telling us voters that Hillary is “the most qualified EVER”? Bullsh*t talking point. Fact is that literally Everything she touches turns to disaster and scandal. She has a looong, sordid documented history of it. Scandal and incompetence follows her like a dark cloud. Barry knows it too. Go back and listen to what he had to say about Hillary in 2008. Very different talking points. Wake up and smell the Covfefe.
Fact is that Hillary is as incompetent as she is corrupt as she is disgusting. How else do you explain her election loss? Competence? She blew threw over a BILLION dollars and had the media in her corner and still lost. Competence? Good judgment? Good decision making? Please. Try again.
“Trump now has Putin’s hand up his butt.” — Wrong. It was up Hillary’s but, though. And Barry’s.
“Clinton, in all her scumbaggery, sleaze, etc. is not mentally unbalanced.”
— Really? How would you know? There’s plenty of evidence over the decades to suggest otherwise. There’s plenty of evidence to identify Hillary as a congenital liar as well.
“Disregarding the media coverage, don’t you get the feeling that Trump is simply out of control, overwhelmed, and has no idea of that or what to do?”
— No. No way Jose. The man ticked off 16 other Republicans in the primaries and then took out the Clinton Political Machine to win the election against all odds. I’d say the man has shown us that he has excellent instincts. The way Hillary ran her campaign demonstrates quite the opposite about her: Poor judgment, bad instincts, inauthentic, confused, corrupt, power mad, congenital liar, bought and paid for, owed lots of favors to lots of swamp dwellers and establishment-types in Washington.
SHE simply is not presidential material. “I’m with HER”? vs. “Make America Great Again.” Obvious choice. The voters are smarter than the media and the Dems think. We proved it in this election.
It’s really funny that you actually believe your opinion of Trump is the majority opinion. Wrong again.
Oh, and if you want to point to poll numbers, then I would suggest you review all the poll numbers that said Hillary had a 97% chance of winning.
TBob – to my great pleasure, newspapers across the country are laying people off. The NYT is laying off 50 editors.
Schadenfreude. 😉
If the investigation stems from intentional Russian involvement in US elections and thus disrupting US government and foreign policy how can anyone trust what the Russian ambassador is saying? It would be self serving in an attempt to cause harm to the US government. Sessions was a Senator at the time and unless the government has a tape of the conversation then some members of the intelligence community may have been totally duped or are actively and illegally engaged in politics.
I’m sorry but to whom is the FBI supposed to be loyal? The president or the Constitution and country? There seems to be a disconnect here. If the president and his administration are working with the RUSSIANS AND LYING ABOUT IT, why should the FBI tell the American people. They obviously can’t tell the president. This deep state stuff is nonsense. It’s just another way to smear the messenger!
5 U.S.C. 3331:
“An individual, except the President, elected or appointed to an office of honor or profit in the civil service or uniformed services shall take the following oath: ‘I, AB, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.’”
“Enemies both foreign and DOMESTIC”
We have a Congress. What you are advocating is anarchy where every person that thinks they have a cause that rightfully should be taken to the public does so even if the material they are releasing is supposed to be kept secret.
“We have a congress”, thanks Sherlock. Congress and FBI have different roles, moron.
Y NOT, You don’release secret information to the world. That sounds traitorous, but it seems to go with your personality.. The information can be released to Congress (and others) that hold power over many things and is part of the checks and balance system. Would be traitors like you should be jailed as soon as they step over the line.
Fortunately people like you are impotent so they don’t generally pose a threat.
More un named secret sources…according to the original article? Operative word “IF”” We’ve better part of the year of “IF this and “If” that and unamed sources. The rest is ‘spoken like a true memver of, if not the deep state’ then of the fourth branch of goverenment.
What messenger the left wing propaganda rag? Where’s the beef? Add up the whole things it’s not even a nothing burger
Come back when you have some facts. provable with real resources. Until then you remain a target of opportunity for the moderate centrist unrepresented but not fragmented dd who kicked your asses last november.
I see the whole line up of robo clones is present. Where’s your programmer?.
T rump is the source.
Sessions, one of the most honest and respected politicians of recent history, says A. Kislyak, a Russian operative, says B. A and B are mutually exclusive.
Which one is it, DNC? Are or are not Russian politicians our worst ever enemy, all cheats and liars?
Haha. As if. Sessions is an unrepentant Klansman who keeps a pillowcase with eyeholes cut into it in his side room where he watches his ebony porn. The homeys at Leavenworth will enjoy playing checkers with Beauregard.
It would leave a perfect opening for Trump to fire Sessions. 🙂
Hear, hear!
Hire an AG with conservative bona fides and a quiver full of courage.
Totally. Sessions is such a liberal.
Trey Gowdy perhaps?
Another slack jawed loser, why not? Gowdy may be more intelligent than Sessions bot so is navel lint.
Ynot – you are in no position to know.
