“Many of the most popular articles about things like http://www.rawstory.com/2017/08/putins-favorite-congressman-setting-up-trump-meeting-to-pass-on-wikileaks-info-on-dnc-hack/" rel="nofollow - Wikileaks and http://www.rawstory.com/2017/03/theyre-not-lies-pizzagate-troll-tells-60-minutes-his-fake-news-stories-are-100-percent-true/" rel="nofollow - Pizzagate  and other conspiracy theories were prominently featured on the Sputnik website,” Feinberg told Melber.

Those stories were then picked up by right-wing outlets like Infowars, Breitbart and the Gateway Pundit, he continued.

Sputnik functions as part of this right-wing media ecosystem,” Feinberg said. “There’s a big difference between these sites run by Americans [that] employ Americans exercising their right to freedom of speech and a news site funded by a foreign government with the express purpose of not reporting the news but influencing opinion.”

“When the money for that site comes from a foreign government, it’s foreign propaganda,” he concluded. “Not news.”


WHY

did Assange and the Russians want so very desperately to put Trump into office ???


and AGAIN Michael Flynn REFUSES to testify without full immunity

immunity for what ???

^Thanks, Satori!  I know federal agents who risk their lives in opposition to the Russians and Chinese, because those commies play for keeps.  

America was punked, plain & simple.  Whether it truly made a difference is a matter of conjecture, since Hillary ran such an awful campaign ("putting coal miners out of work" was just plain nasty and unnecessary!).  

There is no telling how far those folks will go if unopposed.  Our infrastructure, banking and healthcare systems are all at risk, not to mention electoral system.  We are like lambs in a field with no sheep dog!

Of course, in those instances where Flynn’s connections were known, https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/6/21/1673706/-The-CIA-knew-Michael-Flynn-was-a-risk-but-Mike-Pompeo-continued-to-give-him-top-secret-information" rel="nofollow - the Trump regime ignored them , so he may have felt that reporting his many journeys and paychecks was https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/5/17/1663493/-NYT-Team-Trump-knew-Flynn-was-being-investigated-and-Trump-still-hired-him" rel="nofollow - not a big deal . Until the Special Counsel and the Senate Intelligence Committee both began taking a hard look at Flynn. Then it https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/5/22/1664970/-Michael-Flynn-won-t-talk-won-t-produce-documents-claims-legally-dangerous-environment" rel="nofollow - became a big deal .

Where The Trump/Russia Investigations Stand

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-russia-robert-mueller-developments_us_59b95f04e4b02da0e13e7481?ncid=inblnkushpmg00000009

Trump’s eldest son http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-jr-russia-meeting-hillary-clinton-fitness_us_59b16d47e4b0dfaafcf6183d" rel="nofollow - - spoke to the Senate Judiciary Committee  about his June 2016 meeting at Trump Tower, which he attended after being offered information that would supposedly “incriminate” his father’s Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton. Trump Jr. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/11/us/politics/trump-russia-email-clinton.html?mcubz=1&_r=0" rel="nofollow - was told the information was “part of Russia and its government’s support for Mr. Trump.”


wait a minute

what?


WHAT???



“part of Russia and its government’s support for Mr. Trump.”



Trump Jr.’s story about why he took the meeting has http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/donald-trump-jr-russian-lawyer_us_59636504e4b02e9bdb0deb58?ncid=inblnkushpmg00000009" rel="nofollow - - changed over time . He initially claimed that the meeting concerned a policy about “adoptions,” and then defended it as a routine campaign meeting to obtain opposition research on Clinton.

Asked about Trump Jr.’s claim on NBC’s “Today” show Wednesday, Clinton called it “ridiculous.”

“It’s another absurd lie to cover up what was really going on,” she said.


if your not doing anything wrong

why LIE???


Flynn has declined  http://www.cnn.com/2017/09/12/politics/michael-flynn-senate-subpoena-refusal/index.html" rel="nofollow - a second request from the Senate Intelligence Committee to provide testimony , CNN reported Tuesday.

Earlier this year, Flynn pleaded the Fifth Amendment in response to the committee’s subpoena. He also refused to comply with a similar request from the House Intelligence Committee, which is conducting its own investigation into possible collusion between Trump’s campaign and Russia.



hmm

pleading the Fifth over and over

and REFUSING to testify over and over


2+2= ???

hmm
interesting turn of events
remember when quite some time ago Trump claimed that Obama was wiretapping him?
to this day Trump has provided absolutely NO evidence of this but
turns out his slime ball of a campaign manager Paul Manafort was wiretapped for a period
and by who?

the FISA Court
it was all nice and legal
and for the FISA Court to be involved means some heavy $%^$#@  is going down
those are THE big boys

Trump himself was NOT the target and his phones were NOT tapped

and I can't help but wonder
did Trump know Manafort was wiretapped by FISA?
if he did
no wonder he never said anything

and Rachel Maddow is now reporting that someone with STRONG ties to Russian intelligence was responsible for getting the Republican Party platform changed

uh oh !!!

No huge surprise here — we have known for some time that the act of war against the U.S. during the 2016 election was perpetrated by Putin himself. But Levashov is the first to openly admit this. 

Levashov is a monster. According to The Independent (UK), he told his wife that he created a computer virus that helped clinch the election for Trump.

Putin despises Hillary, and thought Trump would be more malleable.  Some days I wonder if he regrets his selection.

Satori- Remember! Many of the people who testified before The House Un-American Activities Committee pleaded the fifth! It didn't mean they were guilty! Sometimes it just means you're smart! A good lawyer can ask questions there's no good answer to.
