The United States on Thursday expelled 35 Russian diplomats and closed two Russian compounds in New York and Maryland in response to a campaign of harassment by Russia against American diplomats in Moscow, a senior U.S. official said on Thursday.
The U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Reuters the Russian diplomats would be given 72 hours to leave the United States. Access to the two compounds will be denied to all Russian officials as of noon on Friday, the official added.
"These actions were taken to respond to Russian harassment of American diplomats and actions by the diplomats that we have assessed to be not consistent with diplomatic practice," the official told Reuters.

Why does Obama choose the last three weeks of his Presidency to poke the Bear? It appears that Obama is doing everything he can to stir up Shite before Trump ascends to the Office.

Good. frick Russia. I hope those two empty compounds have "structal damage" which will require them to be bulldozed in early January.

Odds Trump has already spoken with Putin and told him "As soon as the goon is out of the WH, your people will be back in... Just play it cool"

All he wants to do is kick the ant nest to make it harder for Trump to show him up.

What's weird is in 2012 Obama whispered to Putin he would have "more flexibility" after the election that was caught on a hot mic. There's a lot of misdirection going on to keep the public unsure of their true intentions

Assuming everything happened the way Obama & Co say it did, our response is to expel some diplomats?
Boy, that'll show em!
Boy, that'll show em!
