Discussion: Reports: Butina Met With US Gov't Officials, Received Russian Billionaire's Funding

Aww Jeeeze…Your post leads me to think the Mueller investigation is gonna be going on for decades.
(lays head on desk).

All I wanna see happen is an indictment, an arrest (I am dreaming now…a guy can dream can’t he?) a perp walk to a paddy wagon and then endless days and nights in stir for one donald j trump. All the rest is side show entertainment. for the masses. I don’t expect any Russians will see the inside of a jail for any of this scandal and attack on our election.

Aw c’mon. He’s trump…a stable genius who can change reality with just a tweet.
As I said in a couple earlier posts…trump ought to just change his citizenship to Mother Russia. It’s obvious that’s where his true loyalty is. The rest of the patriotic blather he spews for his base are just words. He doesn’t mean any of it.

Of course he means, he means it when he says it, he means it when the base shower admiration and love on him, and then he doesn’t. He really is a junkie for cheers.

The Trump Translator on my browser is reading, *Oh no!"

Well, I’m not the most patient person on the planet, so I totally see how you feel. I feel the same.

But, when Leopold or any other journo confirms something, I’m sure Mueller has known it since eons ago, and then some more…

… and if the way Moron & Co. freak out upon the news of Butina’s arrest and the FISA application is any indication, I smell an indictment or two coming soon…

… if it makes you feel a bit better. :persevere:

I don’t see the lovely at all. She’s not even geek-hot.

She’s what we (back in Cleveland) would call a “skank”

And if she used her body to get info, then she was one.

According to the White House, there were 20 million Americans at the inauguration, with another 410 million Americans watching the ceremony on TV.

He is a big wuss. Weak on Russia. Cheats in the election and is a whiny bitch who can’t take the heat.

How much is his stay, and that of his entourage and security detail, at his own golf club in NJ costing the American taxpayer this weekend?

I am enjoying the sweat factor some of these folks are going through.

Meanwhile, Republicans are working hard to get their messaging down.

You gotta work smart, not hard. When I was in college, I usually had US Person 1 do my classwork. #protip

We all embellish our CVs from time to time, but JFC, this is overkill – but that sort of bald-faced lying seems to be very impressive with the American conservative set of late.

“Sexiest” is a relative term.

I don’t find the notion of Butina and Erickson cavorting very palatable, either. The cheapness of this whole thing is as sad as it is troublesome.

I really wonder if there aren’t other honey pots running that have escaped our notice because the players are classy and professional. Imagine how damaging a really attractive spy could be, especially if they exercised some restraint. Imagine how high on the tree is the fruit they could pick.

Archive searching now…

ETA: So the deleted post above was a tweet by the WH wondering why any mention of the NRA was gone from Loesch’s Twitter profile (s/he has retracted the tweet). As far as I was able to find in a web archive it was October last year Loesch last mentioned her role as the NRA’s spokesperson in her Twitter profile, so it was not a reaction to the recent development. What happened around that time, instead, was the Vegas mass shooting, and the NRA followed their usual PR tactic and went completely dark on the surface.

(I can’t believe that shooting was less than a year ago…).
