DNI needs Senate confirmation, yes, a candidate totally ignorant of National Intelligence but a Trash sycophant, should be interesting
what power of investigation does he have, IF he's confirmed
Is that a Qanon hashtag?

Ratliffe chosen because he believes the Pootin meddling is a hoax
inexperienced, incompetent, unqualified, a mirror image of Trash and the rest of his kakistocrats
Worried about what?
What's your conspiracy theory this time?
Here are 5 reasons why Trump lackey John Ratcliffe is a terrible choice for intel chief
1. Ratcliffe has insufficient intelligence experience
2. Ratcliffe has no problem with possible obstruction of justice when a Republican president is involved
3. Ratcliffe doesn’t take election security seriously
4. Trump chose Ratcliffe because he’s a yes-man
5. Ratcliffe adamantly opposes net neutrality

Russian opposition leader released from hospital amid speculations of poisoning
Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny was released from a Moscow hospital and sent back to jail Monday after being
treated for a severe rash and eye irritation his personal doctor said could be the result of a poisoning.
Navalny was rushed from a Moscow detention center — where he is
serving a 30-day term for organizing an unsanctioned demonstration
— to the hospital after experiencing an acute allergic reaction.
He had a red rash on his face, neck and body and discharge from his eyes, according to Kira Yarmysh, his spokeswoman. She said
at the onset of his condition that Navalny had no known allergies.

Pootin will get him next time.
Russian link between Trump and Brexit feared by FBI’s McCabe and UK spy chief
American officials were wary of Russian interference in western elections, but some within the FBI saw the Brexit vote as confirmation that those efforts had been successful.
The FBI opened a covert counterintelligence investigation — code name “Crossfire Hurricane” — on July 31, 2016, to determine whether the Trump campaign had coordinated its efforts with Russia.
That investigation was eventually taken over by Robert Mueller, who found “multiple, systematic efforts to interfere in our election” by Russia,
McCabe and Fleming appear to seek a more direct line of communication between the two allies about Russian efforts to interfere with their domestic politics.
The U.K. is investigating whether Russia or other foreign actors had made illegal contributions to the Brexit vote in June 2016, and its Electoral Commission found reasonable grounds to suspect
possible criminal wrongdoing involving insurance executive and political donor Arron Banks.

Coats Replacement Ratcliffe Caught Lying about his Credentials
President Donald Trump’s nominee to be the Director of National Intelligence is facing
a stolen valor situation
after claiming to have put terrorists in jail, NBC News reported Monday.
“[John] Ratcliffe, 53, has little experience in national security or intelligence.
He was elected in 2014 with the support of the Tea Party,
ousting 91-year-old in bent Republican Ralph Hall.
Ratcliffe had been the mayor of Heath, Texas — population 7,000 — from 2004 to 2012,” NBC reported.
“During that time, Ratcliffe became a federal prosecutor,
named chief of anti-terrorism and national security for the Eastern District of Texas. In 2007,
Ratcliffe was named the district’s acting U.S. attorney by President George W. Bush.”
“Although Ratcliffe’s website says he ‘put terrorists in prison,’
there is no evidence he ever prosecuted a terrorism case,”

This stoopid bag Repug mofos, esp rampant in hole Texas, think they can get away with lying in the age of Internet.
Rumor has it that Ratliffe worked shoulder to shoulder with Trash, clearing rubble on the WTC site, after the "7/11" attack
#MoscowMitch backstory
Russia's Rusal was sanctioned by the US. Now it's investing $200 million in a Kentucky mill
The investment comes after the US Treasury Department in January lifted sanctions on Rusal, En+ Group and another firm with links to Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska.
Deripaska, who has close ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin,
was targeted by US sanctions a year ago as part of a wider effort by the Trump administration to punish the Kremlin over interference in the 2016 election.
He had a business relationship with Trump's former campaign chairman Paul Manafort, who has since been convicted of tax and other fraud charges connected to his work on behalf of Russian-aligned Ukrainian interests.
Rusal is investing in the Kentucky mill despite US tariffs on foreign aluminum and steel that were imposed by the Trump administration in March 2018.
Executives from both companies said in a joint interview on Yahoo TV Monday that they planned to pay the tariff on supply from Rusal.

... only because the Dems insisted.
More details on how Pootin was ing around in the 2016 election for Trash, against Hillary
Pro-Kremlin bloggers had prepared a Twitter campaign, #DemocracyRIP, on election night ...
And Russian diplomats "were prepared to publicly call into question the validity of the results" had Secretary Clinton won in November 2016 (see page 33).
{aka. They had more “active measures” in the works, assuming Trump lost.}
7. (U) Russian activities demand renewed attention to vulnerabilities in U.S. voting infrastructure.
In 2016, cybersecurity for electoral infrastructure at the state and local level was sorely lacking; for example, voter registration databases
were not as secure as they could have been.
Aging voting equipment, particularly voting machines that had no paper record of votes,
were vulnerable to exploitation by a committed adversary. Despite the focus on this issue since 2016, some of these vulnerabilities remain.
[REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED] DHS assessed that the searches, done alphabetically, probably included all 50 states, and consisted of research on "general election-related web pages, voter ID information, election system software, and election service companies.[31]
(U) Mr. Daniel told the Committee that by late August 2016, he had already personally concluded that the Russians had attempted to intrude in all 50 states, based on the extent of the activity and the apparent randomness of the attempts.
"My professional judgment was we have to work under the assumption that they've tried to go everywhere, because they're thorough, they're competent, they're good."[55]
[REDACTED] Intelligence developed later in 2018 bolstered Mr. Daniel's assessment that all 50 states were targeted.
< lots more Pootin helping Trash >

Putin Denies Mitch McConnell Is Russian Asset:
“He Has Never Been an Asset to Any Country”
MOSCOW —Pushing back against charges that Senator Mitch McConnell is a Russian asset, the Russian President, Vladimir Putin, said on Tuesday that McConnell “has never been an asset to any country.”
“You can scour the four corners of the globe, and you will not find a nation that would ever in a million years consider Mitch McConnell an asset,” Putin said.
The Russian President urged pundits who have called McConnell a Russian asset “to look up the word ‘asset’ in the dictionary.”
“You will find that ‘asset’ means a useful or valuable thing,” Putin said.
“The only part of that definition that fits McConnell is ‘thing.’ ”
Pressing his case further, he said that it was debatable whether McConnell was even an asset to his home state of Kentucky.
“Maybe compared to Rand Paul he is, but that’s setting the bar ludicrously low,” he said.
Concluding his remarks, Putin said that people who ask,
“Who does Mitch McConnell work for?” are asking the wrong question.
“The question should be ‘When has Mitch McConnell ever worked?’ ” he said.

Just be grateful to Russia. Without Russia England would be Germany.
That's the power of the Internet. See, bouts, that's why gov't wants to get their hands on the Internet. Too much power, too much money, way too much on on both counts for Gov't not have the con, & daddy-O, I mean total control, not just a share, but, the whole thing. All that money & free power sitting there & Gov't can't get a holt of a scintilla of it.
Drives 'em nuts with want, turned greed turned maniacal desire. It'll be fascinating to view as they go about it, akin to England talking 24/7 Englanders outta Brexit.
TSA continues digging up paranoid trivia from rightwing assholes, and nothing ever comes from it.
lol
they will look under every rock - except the most obvious one -
they will never look at the possibility that their criminal traitor cult leader -
is actually a criminal and a traitor who sold them all out to Russia....
