Journalist Craig Unger talks Russia, Trump, and “one of the greatest intelligence operations in history.”

Russia had hundreds of agents and assets in the US, and Gen. Kalugin, the former head of KGB operations in Russia, told me that America was a paradise for Russian spies and that they had recruited roughly 300 assets and agents in the United States, and Trump was one of them. ...
The Russians start businesses and front companies and commodities firms that appear legitimate but essentially work to advance the interests of the Russian state. They’re very good at getting people entangled financially and then using that as leverage to get what they want. This appears to be what they’ve done with Trump, and now he’s president of the United States.

As an Anti-Trumper, I firmly believe Chump does not finish his term. What say you?
 
Literally who?
 
How many more “worst week every” will it take?
 
I can't say what it will take to get Trump out of office, but I believe he is too conflictd by his Russia ties over the decades.

Actually, I believe he is too conflicted by his extensive business ties throughout the world. Which is one of the reasons why I could never vote for him for President.
 
Let us know when Pres.Trump allows Russia control of 20% of our uranium reserves, (ignoring Russian crimes here to do so and hiding them from Congress), gets caught secretly promising "more flexibility" to Putin after his election , or ordering our intel to STAND DOWN and not interfere in Russian election meddling.

The mother****er just IGNORED the emoluments clause and all of his followers just go star gazing when you mention that. He's so transparent, he even wears his crimes and betrayals like a badge of honor.

Just when you think it's impossible to set the bar any lower, Trump surprises us. And he does it week after week. Amazing.

Speculation is growing that if tRump does fall to the justice system, it will be his corrupt finances that get him. Hell, that's how they got Al Capone!

Let us know when anything you just listed stops being complete bull**** that is in anyway relevant to the fact that we have a Russian asset for a president...

Yep and it took over a decade to get al Capone even though everyone in the world knew he was a criminal.

Exactly the same situation we are in with trump only he has KGB agents backing him up.

And still you have those who say this investigation is taking to long...

Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation Amid Russian Uranium Deal


Beyond mines in Kazakhstan that are among the most lucrative in the world, the sale gave the Russians control of one-fifth of all uranium production capacity in the United States. Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for national security, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of United States government agencies. Among the agencies that eventually signed off was the State Department, then headed by Mr. Clinton’s wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton.

I think Dems will take the house and neuter him let him ride out his time in the sun and then lock him up for the rest of his life.

Or they may just find so much overwhelming evidence that they have no choice but to impeach. And if that happens it will have to be bipartisan.

I was saying that every one of those conspiracy theories have been completely debunked and I am not going to hijack this thread by wasting time doing it again.

Typical cult trump method, trumps getting attacked quick change the topic!!!

I've been saying this all along. The Mueller report will be devastating.

When Trump fired Flynn for lying it was all BS. Trump ordered Flynn to meet with the Russian ambassador. He had Flynn lie to the FBI. Then he pretended he knew nothing about it.

But what would really terrify me if I were Trump is how uninterested Mueller seems to be about Cohen. This is Trump's personal fixer. Mueller is totally uninterested. Why? Because he already has all he needs to burry Trump. What could be better than the stuff that Cohen knows? A paper trail of financial crimes with Russians.

Trump and Ivana in Leningrad (Putin's hometown) circa 1986. It all probably started at this time.

Oh brother! Nothing burger!

Did you bother to read this part?

Although Unger doesn’t provide any evidence that Trump gave the Russians anything concrete in return for their help, the case he makes for how much potential leEerage the Russians had over Trump is pretty damning.

I read that excerpt without bother. Some people continue to ignore the obvious. Peace to you and yours!
