Maria Butina......
New charges against a woman who tried to build bridges between the Russian government and American political leaders via the National Rifle Association delivered a breakthrough in understanding one aspect of the attack on the 2016 election: "infiltration."
After months of questions and speculation as to how or whether the NRA connection might have worked, prosecutors have proffered an answer: The Russian woman, Maria Butina, was the intermediary between Russian government officials and Americans, both in the NRA and elsewhere in politics, according to court documents.

Now then, any other Trump Twatter points to parrot?
It was a pretty simple post. I will assume you are talking about this...
The fact of the matter is that those men are patriots who are speaking out against an incompetent, dangerous and now as of yesterday treasonous president. They will be remembered as patriots doing what is best to defend the nation. It will be the GOP who has mostly chosen to remain silent who will be cast into the dustbin of history for not standing up to this treasonous president.
Nonsense. I said intelligence officers were making the rounds of the TV news shows. That's true. You all just attack for the heck of it because you are unable to debate. Nasty people. So, I'll say it again that intelligence officers regularly make the rounds of TV shows. They are political people not intelligence operatives in the normal sense of the word. The Director of the FBI (fired) is now recommending people vote Democratic. That is political and not intelligence officers in the normal sense of the word. If you can't figure out why a fired director of the FBI should refrain from making political statements I frankly don't know what to tell you.
Yes it is true you said that.Originally Posted by mark45y
It's also true that it isn't correct and that you're going to extraordinary lengths to be all pedantic about it, obfuscate and shift the posts.
Oh Mark, you're such a hypocrite!Originally Posted by mark45y
Because you don't think he's entitled to an opinion? Because he's an automaton, not a human being? Because he's not allowed to vote? Because you're some commie that doesn't believe in freedom of speech?Originally Posted by mark45y
I guess I can say it again. I don't know what to tell you. But I'll try seeing you are probably not an American and have to live in a one room flat in Bombay.
Everyone agrees that the FBI should be as professional and impartial as possible and that its investigations should not be driven by any political agenda or vendetta. That has always been the ideal.
Chris Swecker, who finished his 24-year bureau career as an acting assistant director, told NPR's Ryan Lucas this week that "there's been plenty of controversies, but never accusations that the FBI has become a political tool for one party or another, or one set of political beliefs or another.
As a matter of reality, the FBI has been political from its outset. While it has always had an ethos of professionalism and objectivity and devotion to law, the people in charge of it and the people in charge of the administrations under which it has served have been as political and as partisan as it is possible to be.
Hoover collaborated with Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy of Wisconsin, whose years of committee hearings wounded many reputations but wound up unmasking no actual Communists.
Many FBI records include totally unproven and unverified accusations included in "raw files" that are not meant for general release but available to various authorities at the Directors discretion.
After you know all of this stuff you should shut up but politicians can't shut up. It is not in their nature and they lie. Comey is a liar and has access to all the secrets in the world and he will eventually run for political office (I know because he said he would not and he is a liar).
There are a lot of guys in Thailand who know a lot of stuff they aren't supposed to talk about. That's why they came to Thailand. We have a club called, "the guys who know a lot of stuff they aren't supposed to talk about." We have monthly meetings where we gather and stare at each other for 3 hours and get rotten drunk and no one says a word. Sometimes foreign governments send ladies from Lolita's over as payment for not talking about stuff we are not supposed to talk about.
Well that's... odd.Originally Posted by mark45y

You were still wrong though.
Perhaps you don't know the meaning of the words "defend" and "obey".
Which puts you in the same category as that other fucking duffer repeater, who doesn't even know what day of the week it is most of the time.
And it doesn't matter what "seems obvious" to you, because clearly you haven't got an answer to my very simple question.
What question? Is the Army supposed to protect the President? Yes. It goes without saying. I escorted Mrs. Nixon in Vietnam for 3 days. All of us in the escort would have died to protect her even though no one liked her husband. It was our job. Any employee of the Federal government works for Trump. They should obey and protect him. It goes without saying. You don't know this? Do you live in Bombay too?
No thanks (and you're not supposed to talk about the meetings either).Originally Posted by mark45y
