Hold.on.to your butts
I don't trust Comey at all to do . I'm not holding my breath on him doing anything after he went and got Trump elected.
In a written statement on Saturday, a spokesman for Mr. Coons said that the senator “did not imply that he is aware of transcripts indicating collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians.” The spokesman, Sean Coit, said Mr. Coons had “simply stated that a full review of all relevant transcripts and intelligence intercepts is necessary to determine if collusion took place.”

Rachel Maddow connected another dot last night.
“How did we end up with transcripts of the Mike Flynn phone calls to the Russian ambassador”?
It is both legal, and standard practice for US intelligence agents to monitor foreign nationals, so they do.
But there’s a loophole there. It’s legal to monitor a foreign national’s phone calls, but
still illegal to monitor a US citizen. If they’re following protocol, they were required to hang up and disconnect their phone surveillance the moment they identified an American citizen on the line.
So, how did we end up with a transcript of their conversation?
Here’s how.
They could keep on listening in and taping merrily away if they already had a FISA warrant out on Mike Flynn.
With that warrant, all bets are off. So, if they ended up with a transcript of Flynn’s call(s) to the ambassador, then it’s a
de facto admission that there was already a FISA warrant on Flynn before the phone calls took place,
otherwise they would have had to disconnect the call once they identified Flynn.

Code for our senator ed up and slipped and implied something the public shouldn't have known.
Either way we will find out what was said in those briefings. Tighten your asshole pizzaboy, reality is about to hit you like your boyfriend tyronne does every night.![]()
New Development on the Michael Cohen 'Peace Plan' Meeting
One of those was a man named Alex Oronov, who runs a major agribusiness concern in Ukraine. Oronov was a partner in the ethanol business Cohen and Cohen's brother Bryan set up in Ukraine about a decade ago. Oronov is Bryan Cohen's father-in-law.
Today we learned that
Oronov apparently organized that 'peace plan' meeting that brought together Ukrainian MP Artemenko, Cohen and Felix Sater.
About four hours ago Andrii Artemenko, the Ukrainian parliamentarian who came to New York with that 'peace plan', went on Facebook to announce that Alex Oronov has died.
A notable detail is that Artemenko says that it was Oronov who arranged the meeting described in that initial story by the Times.
Here is a loose translation courtesy of a friend who is a Russian speaker: "Yes, I’m guilty …. Alex Oronov, my partner, my friend, my mentor, Alex was a family member of Michael Cohen. And he organized all kinds of stuff, including an introduction and a meeting for me with Michael Cohen."
