No, I ask you how long these investigations take, just like you ask about Mueller’s investigation when I ask where are the Russian collusion charges.Dunno. It could be over for all I know. Could be going on right this second. Depends on what they got from the warrant. Looks like a lot from all the pages of findings.


The FBI told the FISA court that Page "has been collaborating and conspiring with the Russian government"And? I just said they might not have enough evidence to prosecute.

MSNBC's Rachel Maddow Reveals the White House's

Bizarre Machinations Concealing Putin's Admission that He Favors Trump

Why would they be trying to hide this?

a reporter asked the Russian president if he had wanted Trump to win the 2016 election.

For the first time, Putin admitted that he did.
But according to the White House's official records, that didn't happen,

Other outlets have noted that in the White House's transcript of the press conference,

the reporter's question about whether Putin had wanted Trump to win was suspiciously left out.

And even after news outlets picked up the story, the transcript wasn't corrected.
In the White House's official recording of the conference, the questions itself appears to have been edited out of the video entirely.

"They just dropped it out," she said.

"The first part of his question: 'President Putin, did you want President Trump to win the election?'

They just dropped it out."

She reports, as well, that the Russian transcripts edited out the question entirely. :lol

Independent video and transcripts of the press conference exist, and

that exchange itself was widely reported and discussed.

Minor tweaks to the official records won't change that fact.

Why Russian spies really like American universities

Maria Butina may be only the latest in a long line of Russian agents to go undercover on U.S. campuses

Under the alias Cynthia Murphy, Russian spy Lydia Guryeva attended Columbia Business School, and ingratiated herself with a key fundraiser (https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2010/06/30/the-russian-spy-ring-and-the-v-c/) for Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign. Guryeva’s instructions from Moscow, according to a 2010 FBI complaint, were to “strengthen…ties w. classmates on daily basis incl. professors who can help in job search and who will have (or already have) access to secret info” and to report “on their detailed personal data and character traits w. preliminary conclusions about their potential (vulnerability) to be recruited by Service.”

If the charges against Butina are accurate, she’s only the latest in a long line of Russian agents to infiltrate U.S. universities.

Dating back to the Soviet era, Russian spies have sought to take advantage of academia's lax security, collaborative, global culture, and revolving door with government.

Russian intelligence understands that today’s professor of international relations may be tomorrow’s assistant secretary of state, and vice versa.

Although cyber-spying and hacking offer opportunities to glean secrets at less personal risk, the traditional strategies of human espionage persist, and sending a spy to school is prominent among them.

Butina enrolled in American University’s School of International Service in the summer of 2016

She concentrated in cyber policy and became a research assistant at the university’s Kogod School of Business.

With research funding from the Kogod Cybersecurity Governance Center, she and two professors, Mark A. Clark and J. Alberto Espinosa, co-authored a March 2018 paper on “Cybersecurity Knowledge Networks (https://www.american.edu/kogod/research/cybergov/upload/CybersecurityKnowlNetworks_Mar2018.pdf).” (The paper is still on the center’s website (https://www.american.edu/kogod/research/cybergov/research.cfm).)

Clark and Espinosa declined comment.

The cybersecurity center was founded in 2015 to provide “guidance (https://www.nist.gov/sites/default/files/documents/2016/11/15/sept_19_2016_amer_univ_meeting_minutes.pdf) specifically to boards of directors, senior executives, and other leaders so that they can make informed decisions about cybersecurity.”

It has a partnership (https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/raytheon-partners-with-american-universitys-kogod-cybersecurity-governance-center-300271061.html) with defense contractor Raytheon Co., and was headed from June 2017 to March 2018 by a former lawyer for the National Security Agency.

Experts Conclude That Russian Attack Won The Election For Trump

Outside experts have concluded that the Russian attack on the 2016 election did enough damage to swing 80,000 votes in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, which put Trump in the White House.

In his latest column for The Washington Post, (https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/without-the-russians-trump-wouldnt-have-won/2018/07/24/f4c87894-8f6b-11e8-bcd5-9d911c784c38_story.html?utm_term=.140ff70606e2) Max Boot wrote:

While the intelligence agencies are silent on the impact of Russia’s attack,

outside experts who have examined the Kremlin campaign —

which included stealing and sharing Democratic Party emails, spreading propaganda online and hacking state voter rolls —

have concluded that it did affect an extremely close election decided by fewer than 80,000 votes in three states.

Clint Watts, a former FBI agent, writes in his recent book, “Messing with the Enemy,” that

“Russia absolutely influenced the U.S. presidential election,”

especially in Michigan and Wisconsin, where Trump’s winning margin was less than 1 percent in each state.


The numbers are staggering.

Russian pro-Trump/anti-Clinton propaganda reached 126 million people on Facebook alone,

which is roughly the same number as the number of votes cast for Clinton and Trump.

Russian bots reached 1.4 million Twitter users with their disinformation, and

39 states had their voting systems hacked

in what experts believed what a Russian effort to get data that they could use to target voters in their attack.

Trump is not a legitimate president

It is simple math.

Trump lost the popular vote but

won an election by 80,000 votes in three states.

The Russians micro-targeted voters in those states.

They only needed a small fraction of voters to fall for their efforts in order to be successful.

The numbers were in Putin’s favor. (https://www.politicususa.com/2017/10/02/illegitimate-president-math-trump-won-78000-votes-4-4-million-russian-facebook-ads.html)

He could fail 90% of the time, and still swing the election for Trump.

The conclusion is that Trump wouldn’t have won without the Russians.

Trump owes Putin big, which is why he is constantly kissing the ring of America’s biggest enemy.

Trump isn’t legit.

The majority of Americans felt it,

believed it, and

the numbers show that it is true.

For Russian business, Putin's summit win over Trump turns sour

some fear Putin may have overplayed a winning hand and are bracing for a U.S. sanctions backlash.

While the sanctions proposed by Republican Lindsey Graham and Democrat Bob Menendez were seen by most political risk analysts as unlikely in the near term,

new curbs contemplated by other U.S. lawmakers targeting the energy and metals sectors are more realistic, they say.

the reaction inside the United States is blocking any dialogue,

“The threat of wider sanctions has grown,”

wrote on social media after the summit that the Russian president had outplayed Trump in Helsinki “by a big margin”, but added:

“... In doing so he created a problem because he exposed his partner to fierce criticism in the United States.”

a bipartisan group of senators is pushing

the “DETER Act” legislation putting Putin on notice that his country would be hit with more U.S. sanctions if Russia interferes in future polls.

“All liquid (Russian) securities are now hostage to geopolitics, which strongly depend on what goes on in the United States.”

“In short, nobody is expecting anything good to happen.”

It's sort of like complaining that an application mentions the "Clinton Campaign" as the source of funding instead of the "Hillary Clinton 2016 campaign." But these are highly trained, paranoid persecution addicts here.

GOP Reps. File Articles of Impeachment Against Rod Rosenstein

Mark Meadows
✔@RepMarkMeadows
(https://twitter.com/RepMarkMeadows)
I just filed a resolution with @Jim_Jordan (https://twitter.com/Jim_Jordan) and several colleagues to impeach Rod Rosenstein.

The DOJ has continued to hide information from Congress and

repeatedly obstructed oversight--

even defying multiple Congressional subpoenas.

We have had enough. :lol

Tweet-struction: Mueller considering Trump's tweets in investigation of obstruction (https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/7/26/1783688/-Tweet-struction-Mueller-considering-Trump-s-tweets-in-investigation-of-obstruction)

Robert Mueller is looking at a wide-ranging obstruction investigation,

including a review of how Trump may have used his Twitter account to harm the investigation and mislead investigators.

Included in this review are tweets concerning both

former FBI Director James Comey and

Attorney General Jefferson Sessions,

both of whom have come in for frequent attacks from Trump.

By attacking Sessions and Comey,

along with others like Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein,

former intelligence officials like James Clapper and

John Brennan, and

members of Mueller’s investigative team,

Trump definitely attempted to demean the institutions involved.

That includes the intelligence community,

the Department of Justice,

the FBI, and

the special counsel’s office.

And, especially if Trump knowingly used false information in making these attacks,

they may have risen to the level of obstruction.

But both Comey and Sessions have special status as potential witnesses.

… Mr. Mueller is examining whether the actions add up to attempts to obstruct the investigation by both

intimidating witnesses and

pressuring senior law enforcement officials

to tamp down the inquiry.

Trash is so fucking stupid, ignorant, will be hoisted on his own petard.

[Chris]

Rosenstein “attempted to conceal certain facts as documents provided to Congress were heavily and unnecessarily redacted.”

According to the impeachment articles, “most of the redacted documents containing material investigative information did not contain law-enforcement-sensitive information, the Department’s stated basis for redactions.”

Rosenstein’s DOJ redacted the price of (former) FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe’s $70,000 conference table because it was potentially embarrassing information for the FBI.

The DOJ under Rosenstein redacted FBI Agent Peter Strzok’s personal relationship with FISC Judge Rudolph Contreras, remember this story.

Also, under Rosenstein, the DOJ redacted the names of high-ranking Obama administration officials, such as former White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough.

The DOJ also redacted the names of high-ranking FBI officials, such as former Deputy Director Andrew McCabe.

A New Talking Point From the Pro-Trump Fringe

A new line of punditry is bubbling up among the president’s followers online:

It was a positive thing that the Russians hacked the 2016 election.

“If Trump & co. just pivoted to ‘Aren’t you glad Russia helped us defeat Hillary Clinton?’ would there be any serious blowback from his base?”

The question was rhetorical. The answers that began trickling in were not.

“No,” said (https://twitter.com/CassandraRules/status/1019647581943721984) Cassandra Fairbanks, a writer at the right-wing news and conspiracy website Gateway Pundit (and a former Sputnik employee). “I mean, I would be cool with it. Im already there. If russia was involved we should thank them.”

“No,” responded (https://twitter.com/bridgers_kirk/status/1019603950524354571) another self-identified Trump voter. “Hillary is a greater threat to our Republic.”

“If Russia assists MAGA Candidates on the internet in this year’s midterms, that’s not the end of the world.”

“I’ll try not to sound too awful, but I want to thank the Russians for interfering with our election to stop Hillary Clinton from becoming president. That woman has got illusions of grandeur.”

this new line of punditry bubbling up in the pro-Trump social-media conversation is worth taking seriously.

Trump has benefited enormously throughout his political rise from the efficiency with which

his supporters circulate talking points that

excuse his bad behavior,

or neutralize his latest scandal,

or explain away the discrepancies in his ever-shifting rhetoric.

the outlines of the pro-Russian-meddling argument emerging:

America interferes in other countries’ elections, so it can’t be that bad;

exposing Democrats’ hacked emails was a victory for transparency;

keeping Clinton out of office was so urgent and important that it warranted some foreign intervention.

Trump’s allies were forced to pivot repeatedly. They argued that

the president hadn’t broken any laws (https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/07/the-everybody-does-it-defense-of-collusion/533325/);

that any candidate in his position would have done the same thing;

that Clinton would have lost regardless of Russia’s interference,

so the whole point is moot.

the dangers of celebrating foreign interference in the American democratic process

—regardless of which party benefits—

should be self-evident.

But that’s a slippery slope some Trump supporters don’t seem afraid of tumbling down.

https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2018/07/trump-voters-putin-russia/565592/

The oligarchy's dominance, Trash, Repugs and their blind cult are a clear sign that

Republicans Accuse Rosenstein of Secretly Plotting to Uphold Constitution

https://media.newyorker.com/photos/5b5a023d92497e4fd001751b/master/w_727,c_limit/Borowitz-Rod-Rosenstein.jpg

WASHINGTON —House Republicans on Thursday accused the Deputy Attorney General, Rod Rosenstein, of “secretly and nefariously” implementing a plot to uphold the United States Constitution.

In a joint press conference, Representatives Mark Meadows, of North Carolina, and Jim Jordan, of Ohio, said that

they had “ample evidence” that Rosenstein was prepared to protect the Constitution “by any and all means at his disposal.”
“There is only one way to describe Rosenstein’s obsession with putting the Constitution before all other concerns,” Meadows said. “Conflict of interest.”

“It is almost as if Rod Rosenstein had taken some kind of solemn oath to defend a centuries-old document,”

Jordan said. “This should make every American very, very scared.”

Though the Republicans have shelved their articles of impeachment against Rosenstein for now, they hope that their impeachment threat will send a clear message to Rosenstein that his reckless allegiance to the Constitution will no longer be tolerated.

“If, going forward, Rosenstein uses his position at the Department of Justice to seek justice,

he will be crossing a red line,”

Meadows said.

Russian Hackers’ New Target: a Vulnerable Democratic Senator

The Russian intelligence agency behind the 2016 election cyberattacks targeted Sen. Claire McCaskill (https://www.thedailybeast.com/the-sexual-assault-case-that-haunts-claire-mccaskill) as she began her 2018 re-election campaign in earnest, a Daily Beast forensic analysis reveals.

That makes the Missouri Democrat the first identified target of the Kremlin’s 2018 election interference.

McCaskill, who has been highly critical of Russia over the years, is widely considered to be among the most vulnerable Senate Democrats facing re-election this year

The senator later released a statement asserting that the cyberattack was unsuccessful.

“Russia continues to engage in cyber warfare against our democracy. I will continue to speak out and press to hold them accountable,”

More evidence that Mercer/CA plus Russian money was pushing for BREXIT

Facebook finally hands over leave campaign Brexit ads

The UK parliament has provided another (https://techcrunch.com/2018/05/10/russian-facebook-ads-house-intelligence-full-list/) telling glimpse behind the curtain of Facebook’s unregulated ad platform by publishing data on scores of pro-Brexit adverts which it distributed to UK voters during the 2016 referendum on European Union membership.

The ads were run on behalf of several vote leave campaigns who paid a third company to use Facebook’s (https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/facebook/) ad targeting tools.

The targeting of the ads was carried out on Facebook’s platform by

AggregateIQ, a Canadian data firm that has been linked to Cambridge Analytica/SCL

— aka the political consultancy at the center of a massive Facebook data misuse storm (https://techcrunch.com/2018/04/04/cambridge-analytica-87-million/), including by Facebook itself, which earlier this year told the UK parliament it had found billing and administration connections between the two.

Several of the Brexit campaigns whose ads have now been made public were also recently found to have broken UK election law (https://techcrunch.com/2018/07/17/its-official-brexit-campaign-broke-the-law-with-social-medias-help/) by breaching campaign spending limits.

BeLeave, had been joint-working with the official Vote Leave campaign — yet the pair had not jointly declared spending thereby enabling the official campaign to overspend by almost half a million pounds.

And that overspend went straight to Aggregate IQ to run targeted Facebook ads.

Facebook finally hands over leave campaign Brexit ads

Pootin benefits for a broken EU and a broken NATO.

Anybody naive enough to believe Pootin was not behind the BREXIT campaign?

if you're trying to convince people you're NOT a Russian asset,

you probably shouldn't tweet videos from Channel One Russia.

Here’s a stunning editorial from The New Yorker Magazine


" …..a question has been haunting our national life.

It is whether the Republic will live or die.

The question has been asked in countless forms.

May newspapers print whatever they wish to print, and the people read whatever they wish to read?

May the people assemble without fear of injury or loss of life?

Must senators and others always support the President in his difficult decisions?

Are the people to be treated like children or like adults?

To what extent does the government have the power to check up on what the people are doing?

To what extent do the people have the right to check up on what the government is doing?

How do we spend our money?

When do we go to war?

Who decides?
[...]
On this occasion, as on many others in recent years, the President has flouted the law.

He has not merely broken the law;

he has overthrown the law.

But this time, since his lawbreaking seems to remove a threat to the very survival of his Administration in office,

it is not just this one act but the continuation of the Administration itself that has become lawless.

The question of whether the Republic will live or die has now been decisively posed in this form:

Will we remove a lawless Administration from office or will we submit to illegitimate rule?

The question has probably been put in its final form, and may not be asked again.
[...]
And the only resolution the President has left to us,

unless he resigns,

is for Congress to begin consideration of impeachment proceedings.

The country surveys a scene of devastation.

The wreckage of American institutions lies all around us.

Any future under the present leadership is unthinkable.

The point of no return has been passed,

and the country has no choice but to take the first,

dread steps toward putting its house in order. "
