Classified reports have ‘damning evidence’ of Trump campaign’s coordination with Russ

[KingOrfeo]

The reports Orfeo refers to are most damaging to the Democrat's long-suffering credibility. Be advised that now that Schiff has seen the same evidence Nunes has seen he's become almost mute on the subject.

Is it the same as the evidence Pocan saw?

Pocan? is that short for Pocahontas?

No, it's the name of the Congresscritter quoted in the OP.

 

[Rightguide]

No, it's the name of the Congresscritter quoted in the OP.

Then the answer is no. Only congressmen Schiff and Nunes have seen what I'm talking about.

NY Post is saying Russian narrative an invention of "Team O."

NY Post is saying Russian narrative an invention of "Team O."

I suspect it was cobbled together to deflect from Sec Clinton/Russian actual colusion and bribery. It was assumed that Trump would highlight that, so they started looking for any Trump/connection (no matter how tenous) with the idea of innoculating Clinton. Trump didn't dwell on that.

When she lost, and they needed a scapegoat for the ignominious loss to assuage big donor concerns, they dusted it off and used it.

The entire idea is stupid. Russians are somehow Madison Ave level political consultants able to influence American voters better than actual, highly paid consultants who won this election?

Dems are just pissed that dispite their consultant's white male privlege, some ditzy chick kicked their asses.

Couldn't be her strategizing, had to be Russian grand master level diabolique.

Couldn't be that State after State wanted nothing to do with Obama's third term, now that that term limits alleviated that awkward HR-style racial sensitivity issue.

Sounds like a porn-film title. But then, so does "Coalition of the Willing."

Russian operatives can be effective because they're willing to get their hands dirty and highly experienced in that (no Madison Avenue consultant, I hope, would have thought of hacking into the DNC's computers). But the point is not that they were more effective than professional consultants, or even effective at all in increasing Trump's votes or depressing Clinton's; the problem is that they tried, and seemed to make a pretty good effort, which means they probably will be able to learn from this experience and exercise somewhat more influence over the next election, which you know they're already planning for just like pols do. And that is a problem whether the Trump team was/is involved or not.

Which is why more people voted for Hillary than the con artist.

It's also why people are clamoring not to get rid of Obamneycare. They're so enamored with the Heritage Foundation's work they don't want to get rid of it.

It's also why the con artist's disapproval rating keeps rising. Latest poll shows him at 57 percent disapproval with only 35 percent approving. Worse than Obama ever was and only worse than Bush who took eight years to get that low. And only after he brought on the worst recession in 80 years and initiated the financial system collapse.

So yeah, keep dreaming. People are waking up to the realization they've been conned.

Seriously?

That was the strategy of the Clinton campaign? To have "more people vote for her?"

That was a bad strategy. We don't elect Presidents that way. I guess tolerating the ignominy of being married to Bill Clinton did not serve to educate her on Presidential politics.

Well, usually we do, 2000 and 2016 were anomalies.

They haven't forgiven the insult of our filly beating their nags.

 

[Conager]

No, we never have elected Presidents by who garners the most votes. Getting more votes is often the side effect.

As per your usual, you mistake correlation for causation. In science that is known as "The Phrodeau Fallacy."

 

[BotanyBoy]

Well, usually we do,

Not ever, in the entire history of the USA.

There's a reason why your narrative fails:

British spies were first to spot Trump team's links with Russia

Britain’s spy agencies played a crucial role in alerting their counterparts in Washington to contacts between members of Donald Trump’s campaign team and Russian intelligence operatives, the Guardian has been told.

GCHQ first became aware in late 2015 of suspicious “interactions” between figures connected to Trump and known or suspected Russian agents, a source close to UK intelligence said. This intelligence was passed to the US as part of a routine exchange of information, they added.

Over the next six months, until summer 2016, a number of western agencies shared further information on contacts between Trump’s inner circle and Russians, sources said.

The European countries that passed on electronic intelligence – known as sigint – included Germany, Estonia and Poland. Australia, a member of the “Five Eyes” spying alliance that also includes the US, UK, Canada and New Zealand, also relayed material, one source said.

Another source suggested the Dutch and the French spy agency, the General Directorate for External Security or DGSE, were contributors.

It is understood that GCHQ was at no point carrying out a targeted operation against Trump or his team or proactively seeking information. The alleged conversations were picked up by chance as part of routine surveillance of Russian intelligence assets. Over several months, different agencies targeting the same people began to see a pattern of connections that were flagged to intelligence officials in the US.

BTW, what good is a spy who's giving out his right name, or at least the same name, all the time on every mission?! "The name is Bond. James Bond." Why don't you just tattoo a bullseye on your forehead, dumbass?!

I just want the impeachment asap........bring it on, pleeeeease.

Just as Judge Nap said

and YOU all attacked him for speakiung the TRUTH

 

[KingOrfeo]

No matter what comes to light, no matter how sleazy or corrupt, impeachment ain't gonna happen until:

1. The Dems win a majority in the HoR, or
2. The Pubs decide they're fed up with Trump.

My money is on 2.

 

[SyKoKo]

WELL, WELL: Judge Andrew Napolitano was apparently right about British surveillance on the American election. “He was openly mocked — and suspended from Fox News — but now, it seems, he was right.” Prediction: Trace it back, if you can, and you’ll find Obama or one of his henchmen asking the Brits to do this. Or henchwomen.

Oppo Research Firm Behind Trump Dossier Is Refusing To Answer Senate Committee’s Questions



The FBI offered to pay money to Steele for the dossier that was commissioned by this opposition research firm being paid by a Hillary ally. And now they refuse to talk. No problem there…

Via Daily Caller:

The opposition research firm that hired a former British spy to dig up dirt on Donald Trump last year is refusing to answer questions recently posed to it by the Senate Judiciary Committee.

The firm, Fusion GPS, is protected by attorney-client privilege and the First Amendment, its attorneys said in a letter to the committee.

The chairman of the Senate panel, Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley, sent a letter to Fusion GPS last month inquiring about the Trump research project.

Fusion GPS, which was founded by former Wall Street Journal reporter Glenn Simpson, hired ex-MI6 agent Christopher Steele in June to uncover any Trump ties to Russia. Steele produced a series of memos laying out various allegations about Trumpworld’s ties to Russian government officials. For its part, Fusion GPS was on the payroll of an unidentified Democratic ally of Hillary Clinton’s.
