Yahoo news

Torshin, the Russian we've heard about before in relation to NRA, apparently was picked up on a wiretap talking to another Russian just before that dinner he had at NRA convention where he greeted Don Jr. The Spanish handed it over to Mueller recently.

The beginning of the article tries to imply that it was Junior himself on the wiretap, but if you read on, it was two Russians.

The Spanish were investigating Russian money laundering and happened to catch this convo that somehow relates to Don Jr and NRA. Issikoff did not elaborate on anything that was said, but I find it interesting that it is Issikoff who broke this story (same guy whos reporting came straight from Chris Steele in the past).

Seems like a non-story.

Didn't the Mueller team complain about translating Russian? With this story, they'd have to translate Spanish and Russian. That seems a bit over their head.

Torshin — a close political ally of Vladimir Putin — had multiple contacts with conservative activists in the United States during the election, seeking to set up a summit between the Russian president and then candidate Trump. Although the summit never transpired

WELL, THERE ARE 2 WAYS TO LOOK AT THIS:

1. The crazy Leftist way: We caught Don Jr. talking to a Russian. This proves collusion. Let's REDO the election.


2. The person who had been paying attention for the last 16 month's view:

WOW.....
looks like Obama/DOJ and company put spies into POTUS Trump camp illegally and illegally wiretapped him and his associates. Here is yet another example of an illegal wiretap.

The media is going to go crazy reporting this for the next 48-72 hours and then ... A BIG THUD when nothing comes of it.

However, ONCE AGAIN, another example of a confirmed wiretap is admitted to by the MSM.

Rinse and repeat until we fast forward 6 months from now when the media realizes that all these wiretaps that they acklowledge existed WERE ILLEGAL.

The only reason it relates to JR is because one of the Russians planned on attending an NRA sponsored event and had apparantly arranged to speak with several politically connected folks....JR being one of many.

My takeaway was there was a meet and greet at the event (which is pretty standard)....kind of like what some musicians do for concert fans.

Nothingburger is being too generous to describe that article.

One of the untold stories of the Russia Investigation is all of the SIGINT we don't know about.

Assange is the key to the whole ball of wax.....

If he produces Hillary's 33,000 wire taps... BOOM...

No telling what e-mails she bleach bit, hammered and whether they contained info on "insurance policy" to do Trump in.....
