Seriously



I don't care if you are liberal, conservative, agnostic, following the paleo diet or whatever.
This summary from the Guardian is disturbing...

Trump fired off an angry series of tweets on Wednesday morning, claiming: “This Russian connection non-sense is merely an attempt to cover-up the many mistakes made in Hillary Clinton’s losing campaign.”  

He attacked the intelligence community for what he saw as “unAmerican” leaks to newspapers that have written anonymously sourced stories about his and his advisers’ alleged links to Russia in recent days. “Information is being illegally given to the failing @nytimes & @washingtonpost by the intelligence community (NSA and FBI?),” he wrote. “Just like Russia.” 

That was the “real scandal”, he said. Trump also complained that the “fake news media is going crazy with their conspiracy theories and blind hatred”, echoing the language of the Kremlin reaction to the latest reports.


The whole NYT article triggering this presidential tweetspurt here, if you haven't read it twice already...

Then read three related articles...
Then skimmed the Logan Act, just to be sure Flynn violated it...
And pondered who knew what and when...

This is heavy duty stuff.


Unless your fake news tells you that my fake news is fake, I guess.
Then, maybe all of this seems like libtard kvetching?


From here it seems a lot like Watergate, but with another country running the game.

Maybe that is just me though...

It seemed like a big story that got run over by the coverage of whatever the unconstitutional order of the day was, whatever dunderhead secretary was somehow being approved for a job they diametrically are inappropriate for.
Yet Flynn has floated it to the top, like a turd in a toilet.


Never mind that the other country involved just moved some missiles to violate a treaty, too.
My fake news mentioned that.  Did yours?
Probably no big deal.
Like parking missiles in the wrong lot, while going to get some snacks at a mini-mart, maybe.

Heck, it may even just be some civilians doing stuff with missiles...
You know, like in Crimea or the Ukraine.
Nothing to worry about, no big thing...


Anyway, our congress is on it...
Launching investigations.
Investigations on the source of the leaks?

What?
