“Building peace” must include compromising one of the parties in our two-party system.

This is really gonna make things tough for the Nobel committee.

By arming one of them and encouraging/abetting internal dissent and horrific mass shootings.

She was wholly lacking in confidence her actions were plainly of a peaceful, non-criminal nature and evidence would affirm that in front of a jury:

Federal prosecutors have reached a plea deal with Maria Butina, the Russian woman who parlayed her interest in gun rights and her Republican Party connections into an unofficial influence campaign inside the U.S.

Butina has agreed to plead guilty to a single charge of conspiracy to act as a Russian agent on America’s soil without registering as required with the Justice Department.

Especially when you privately tell your FSB handler that you despise the man and can’t wait for this “Assignment” to be over.

Yes, it was True Love all right.

Fomenting dissent on the other hand…

I heard the interview. I would have wished for some more push-back from the reporter and a little more preparation regarding the facts of the case.

I believe that Vidkun Quisling said somewhat the same about relations between Norway and Germany.
