Discussion: CNN: Suspected Spies Casing Russian Defectors Were Among Diplomats Expelled

On Wednesday, State Department personnel drilled through the locks on that compound and entered it — despite Russian protests that it was still the country’s property, and though its Russian occupants had left the grounds the previous day.

Oddly enough, the Russkies vamoosed but left their flag flying at the former Western White House.

No word yet on whether they stole the DTV receiver(s).

I’m not one to say “Come on Mueller”—our society as a whole made this mess and it’s our responsibility to clean it up, not entirely his. But JFC when Putin’s goons are making like it’s open season on people resident in this country that’s just about enough. We’re all about the sovereignty now, is that it? That’s the deal? Fine then. Let’s go, let’s fucking well clean house now, today, and start at the top. Lock. Him. Up.

Trump didn’t expel the Russians. The intel and State folks got it done while Donny Dotard wasn’t paying attention.

How long is Donny going to ignore this?

That is going to sting. Dish and DirectTV do not like giving up a dollar in equipment.

Hmm… Imagine…

Russian diplomats are actually spies. That is a new one. Never happened before.

How long is the shelf life on Kompromat?

Except, of course, for Polyakov: “a six-cylinder, Karla-trained hood.”

Thanks. I assumed that must be the case, 'cause I sure can’t see Spanky green-lighting this. If it were up to him, he’d send ICE goons to hold people in place while the Russians assassinate them.

I wonder who approved the list of the expelled.

Hard to “blend in” carrying around a flag like that : - )

Especially when it’s draped over a stack of hot DTV receivers.

I have been wondering when we will see one of Putin’s assassinations come to America. If it has not happened already. I will be curious to see how the tRump administration handles it. Anyway, at least it looks like the intelligence agencies are working to prevent it.
