RussiaGate


It still amazes me.

What did these idiots think was going to happen?

It's one thing to be a TV personality, or for your dad to be a TV personality and an E list celebrity, but no light shines brighter or hotter than the one focused on the POTUS and all of his dealings.

One minute I think Trump knew this and didn't want to win, but got elected by freak accident. The next I'm thinking these people were too stupid to understand what they were getting themselves into.

It's so perplexing to try and understand what Trump was thinking. Sure, he's a buffoon and utterly unqualified, but he does know about media exposure better than 99.9% of the people on the planet. Considering that, the idea that he didn't think he would win and didn't want to win explains everything. This picture may say a lot:

But then look at Don Jr. in the background. If his dad didn't want to win, Jr. certainly wasn't privy to that information.

Maybe Trump was just tired? Maybe the reality of what he'd done finally hit him in that moment?

We'll probably never know.

Oh yeah?

Well, if Trump and those around him are supposedly so stupid, why were they the only ones smart enough to collude with a hostile foreign power to get elected?

Are you president right now, mister smarty-pants? No. Because you weren't genius enough to collude with Russia. Trump did because he's a super genius who outsmarted everyone! 47th dimensional chess! Witch hunt! What about Hillary's emails? Deep state!!!!!!!!! [/rightist]

I don't think they realized that it was going to be different than the business world where keeping quiet about dirty deeds was usually enough.

Wait.

Are you saying that it's easier to hide dirty deeds in the business world than in the government?

Then why are you and the other rightists so interested in privatizing everything and letting private businesses take over many functions of the government? Didn't you just accidentally admit that privatization will reduce transparency?

So what now, 4 independent attempts to get intel from the Russians?

Hillary Clinton! Let's suddenly start talking about Hillary Clinton instead?

Why didn't Hillary Clinton go to jail yet? It's obvious that the FBI is biased in her favor because of the Deep State conspiracy!!!!!!! If Trump were president, he would have been impeached by now! The fact that Hillary hasn't been impeached proved that the Deep State is behind all of this and they are biased against traitors! [/parody]
 
Are you president right now, mister smarty-pants? No.
No.... But, hey! You know what? I HAVE been under federal investigation.
NIS and NCIS personnel have looked into my finances, my educational background, my associates and talked with family, friends. employers, and teachers.

Every five years since 1980.

And every five years, they reissue my security clearance!

So, not president, but ALSO not afraid of the 'feds' looking around my life, money, dealings...
 
Foldering is an old counterintelligence trick. Let's say I want you to read an email, but I don't want it intercepted. I write the email, and save it as a draft, in the draft folder. In some other way, let's say an encrypted social sharing app, I give you the password to my email account. You go in, read the email in the draft folder, and log out after you are done. You got the communication, and the email was never actually sent. Hard to say you're not trying to tamper with witnesses using such a technique.

:consternation1: A while ago (at SC), I floated the notion that Trump was somehow using his twitter account as a means to communicate/coordinate with Russia. I figured it would be some sort of coded language or the like. Guess what you can do with twitter as well.
 
It seems pretty obvious that AT MINIMUM Trump is a patsy for the Russians. He helps launder their money and hasn't seen a dirty deal he doesn't like. When he was in bad financial trouble because he's a shitty businessman, his illegal activities propped up his empire. He's gone deeper and deeper down that hole, and because he's so stupid, he has no idea how deep he himself is actually into this quagmire. He is THE PERFECT type of puppet for these kinds of people. He makes money off of their dealings, they get their money, and Trump thinks he's a brilliant businessman.

It can't be very old; I rather doubt that it was used much before the Internet existed :p

Granted. I have also been around since before the Internet, so you're right, it can't be that old. :)
 
Since the DOJ final report on the 2016 election is likely to be used by various people that will distort the findings, the full report is here, available for download as a pdf. I have downloaded it myself and scanned it for viruses using Avast and Malwarebytes, and it's clean.

Ah ha!

Gotcha!

So you admit that there has been no actual treason conviction yet, which proves that there was no treason, which proves that this whole thing is a witch hunt by the Deep State!!!!!!! [/satire]

That was also how Petraeus communicated with his mistress.
 
Kremlin Launches Troll Horde

Kremlin Launches Twitter Flash Mob To Free Alleged Russian Agent Maria Butina Troll Horde

Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs [Propaganda] has launched a Twitter flash mob [Troll Horde] to free Russian national Maria Butina following U.S. charges that she conspired to influence American politics while covertly working for the Kremlin.

It’s an intriguing strategy by a foreign government, though perhaps not surprising, given the U.S. intelligence finding that the Kremlin manipulated social media during the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

The ministry urged people to show support for Butina by changing their Twitter profile photos to a portrait of Butina posted on the ministry’s official Twitter account and Facebook page on Thursday. Those pages feature an image of Butina, 29, with the hashtag #FreeMariaButina beneath.

“In connection with the arrest in the United States of Russian citizen Maria Butina, we’re starting a flashmob [troll horde] in her support: #FreeMariaButina,” reads the translated Tweet. “Put a photo of Maria as your avatar.”

Save Maria Butina. These charges are overblown. This is all a misunderstanding. She is sexually attracted to middle aged white men. She is barely a spy. Only a little bit.

I noticed that Colbert does not pronounce her name correctly. it's not Butina, it's BUtina. That's really all I care about at present time.
I mean we all know that this is all setup for Trump pardoning her.
 
I wonder how many videos of Mariia Butina having sex with ranking republicans are now in possession of Putin.
