It's definitely against the law to "do work for" the Russian government if you're not a registered foreign agent.

So Flynn was fetching coffee at the embassy? Wonder why he's willing to go to jail for that?

I will make any bet with anyone that nothing will come of either of these things.

No. He was doing his job, right?

Again, I wonder why he's pleading the fifth and risking going to prison for "doing his job"? You have heard his and Trump's comments on taking the 5th, correct?

Do you?
Really?

My guess is he misanswered FBI questions re: Turkey.

Actually, I don't wonder at all. But at it being about Turkey.

Yep. So, why did they all lie about it, including two of them under oath or on penalty of perjury? Why would they commit a crime to conceal something that was perfectly OK for them to do?

If you can't see the evidentiary difference between these two examples, then all I can say is - good grief.


Give me 5 solid pieces of evidence that suggest the Trump campaign broke the law in regards to Russia and the election.

Hell, I'll make it easier on you and allow you to go beyond just what is legal and what is not. Give me my 5 pieces of evidence that suggest that someone within the Trump campaign "colluded" with Russia on the election

As for the Seth Rich murder, as a former investigator I can tell you , the investigation should be in the FBI's hands, because as an investigator you never accept a coincidence at face value.

It isn't. I only talk about it with evidence.

yeah, its pretty clear that they have Flynn dead to rights on FARA and lying to federal authorities. Probably more.

This is way more than anything they have on seth rich, which just amounts to questions.

Then you're not accurately characterizing the accusations against Flynn.

We can start with Donald Trump asking the Russians to hack his opponent's email server on July 27th of last year.

because, according to this trumpkin bubble board, the only real news comes from fox news sources such as Sean Hannitty and Jesse Waters, and people like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck. And of course Trump himself. Everything else is "fake news". There is no reality for these people, there is only the bubble.

As I recall he just asked them to release the 33,000 emails if they had them. Can you you give me his exact quote to refresh my memory?

Later in the same press conference he talked about loosening U.S. policy on Crimea.
