They do remember she’s not the candidate this time?.. Right?

Also… “Oh no! Clinton was going to try and tie Trump to Putin, and the server hack”… But he is tied to Putin.

Who needs any more proof of who Putin’s puppet is? Director of DNI did this?! This is OUTRAGEOUS. No need to see Ratcliffe or Trump perform the Kazachok now.

By golly they keep this up and I think they may actually manage to impeach Hillary Clinton for colluding with the Russians. Because god knows Putin loves him some Hillary Clinton.

There will be more of this, much more. When you have an outlaw president desperate to evade consequences for his misdeeds, with outlaw sycophants who also have misdeeds to evade, you can expect nothing else.

Which is more difficult: putting together a whole spine out of all the Republicans in Congress, or finding a single drop of shame in the entire Republican party?

YES, is it deja vu all over again, or did an asteroid hit when I was sleeping that flung us back to 2016.

Its a sign they have nothing, so they’re trying to rerun their Russian disinfo greatest hits against Clinton.

Wow, wow, wow. If only we could time travel back to 2016, when seeing this might have made a difference. I pasted the first of the thread below, and a link to read the whole thing.

This is why I think Trump is doing more than tax avoidance. This is from financials for the Aberdeen property. It’s one page from one year, but tells a story repeated year after year. I hope at least some stick with me (esp.

“In late July 2016, U.S. intelligence agencies obtained insight into Russian intelligence
analysis alleging that U.S. Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton had approved a
campaign plan to stir up a scandal against U.S. Presidential candidate Donald Trump
by tying him to Putin and the Russians’ hacking of the Democratic National
Committee,” Ratcliffe said in the letter.

So wait…Ratcliffe is saying that Russian intelligence is admitting to their own hacking of the DNC, under the direct order of Vladimir Putin?

What?
