    I love showing how completely fake and disturbingly hypocritical the leftist are. Some people play Candy Crush, I play, show how completely fake and disturbingly hypocritical the leftist are.

    Proving that Russian interfered in the election or that Russian intended to help Trump is not a crime that would subject Mr. Trump to personal criminal liability.

    Proving that Trump knew about that interference before it occurred or colluded with the interference would be a crime that would subject Mr. Trump to personal criminal liability.

    It's not a court of law when I watch the nightly news and hear about an "alleged" shooter either, and it doesn't have to be. Unless you are talking about concrete, proven facts...you cant state them as if they are.


    And no, what you have shown is that 17 agencies are in agreement that they think it was Russians who hacked Podestas email.

    I'm trying to figure out how a hack into Podestas email, if that's even really the case, turns into Election Interference. Podesta isn't a voting booth, or a vote counter.

    It doesn't add up, and smells like a manufactured narrative being reinforced with this story.

    It's your rabbit hole. If you are going to claim Podestas email hack or leak IS Election interference...then you should be able to define that link for people when asked. I'm not seeing how they are the same thing.

    So? Crimes committed? Are we at war with Russia? If you knew what trump ran on, it was ending intervention in other nations, trying to work with Russia on a common interest, radical islam. Trying to ramp down the neocon created tensions with Russia. That to do any of this would require talking to Russians. There is an attempt to cage trump in so he cannot ease tensions with a nation that can destroy you and the rest of us, for some people seem to be salivating for the war to end all wars, except using sticks and stones. You are enabling the insanity, because your girl got beat.

    That shooter would end up in court. The Russians will not. Hence the difference.

    There are multiple ways to interfere with an election. Spreading false information, like Pizzagate, is one example. Selectively spreading true information, like releasing Podesta's emails but not emails from the Republican campaign official, and specifically spreading those emails at a time designed to hurt the intended target, right before the DNC convention, is another example.

    Why did it matter? Isn't Jon (I love giant paintings of little kids in their underwear chained to walls) Podesta an outstanding liberal of the highest moral ethics the left imposes on all their leaders?

    Why was it damaging?

    If you want to talk about Jon Podesta, make a thread yourself. The topic here is Jared Kushner's previously undisclosed, but now confirmed, meeting a sanctioned Russian Bank.

    I will set aside the potential collusion issue that would be criminal and treasonous and merely point out that this story is relevant because everyday that Trump and his administration have to spend reacting to the fact that they failed to disclose (or actually lied) about multiple interactions between themselves and the foreign government that was found to have interfered in our election is another day where Trump is losing support amongst those who are not in his rabid fan base and another day where Trump is not able to achieve harmful policy goals.

    if your going to point the finger, you better be prepared to have it pointed back. Thats the point, and it IS relevant, it proves the issue is bipartisan. Just because you cannot argue his position you reported him? Childish. Unwilling to acknowledge the SAME FAILURE of your party? willfully Ignorant. What, did you only want to hear from people who agree with you?

    Podesta,Hillary, Obama are Democrats ! They can collude with anyone , they can sell uranium to the Russians, they can take billions in contributions from foreign countries , they can help Iran get nuclear weapons , they can even send Iran billions in cash on an airplane in the middle of the night just because they are Democrats. Yet, it's ok . Nothing to see or care about . Trump's son in law married a Trump, therefore he is the devil . Democrats logic 101.

    No, I wanted people who wished to discuss the topic of this thread. This thread - again - is about Jared Kushner's previously undisclosed, but now confirmed, meeting with a sanctioned Russian bank.

    All right. What if russians were not involved at all? Will that be damaging to reputation of Democratic party?

    Get evidence, present to international court of justice. Georgia did that, Ukraine does that, Nicaragua did that - you can do this too. If there a proof of international crime - give it to court. If not - apparently the Democratic party uses my country as a scapegoat for sake of pushing their political rivalry with Republicans further - while my country suffers unjust claims and reinforced sanctions.

    While I pay for your political disputes.

    Trump wants to get a lot of work done, he just wants his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, to do it.

    As the Washington Post’s Ashley Parker and Philip Rucker reported on Sunday, Kushner has been tapped to run an entirely new office with the “sweeping authority to overhaul the federal bureaucracy and fulfill key campaign promises ― such as reforming care for veterans and fighting opioid addiction.”

    Okay, but let’s cast our minds back to Jan. 9, when the same newspaper reported this: Jared Kushner, the son-in-law of President-elect Donald Trump and one of his closest confidants, will join the White House as a senior adviser to the president, Trump announced Monday, while a lawyer assisting the family said that Kushner’s wife, Ivanka Trump, will not immediately…more detail

    ....I suppose? I'm not really sure how that would occur given that the various intelligence agencies have already concluded that they were involved.

    Good point. Maybe Podesta will have a cell next to Kushner, Manafort, Flynn and Trump...

    Trump has also put Kushner in charge of peace in Palestine.

    Yea...turned out really well for those countries (actually, I'm not sure what you guys did to Nicaragua).

    The United States is not alone in being the target of Russian interference. The same as happened in western European countries and it is currently happening in France and Sweden.

    For past eight years democrats has been leading party in the US, and basically should have lots of connections with intelligence at the present moment. Wouldn't they use these connections to press on, oppose to the candidate - a political outsider - that was not expected to win the elections?

    I am not sure I understand your question. Are you asking whether or why didn't Obama use intelligence agencies to stop Trump from winning?

    As for Georgia - military action in South Ossetia stopped, borders not violated and albeit South Ossetia still not recognised as independent republic - gerogian government does not tries to subjugate it by military force either. Basically it ended relatively well, even if georgian side did not got the result they were expecting.

    As for Ukraine - the first hearings only happened two or three weeks ago, processing of their case is only starting. A civilized method of solving dispute.

    I am asking why it is not considered to be possible of these agencies being used right now to put Trump out of his position though the propaganda among the public. There was not that much anti-russian material in media before the Trump's electoral victory.

    To talk about the sanctions, duh.

    However, since you apparently claim to know all about this, what EXACTLY were the terms of sanctions against that bank, given your rant about it. BE PRECISE.

    Sorry, you don't get Hilary Clinton's war with Russia. You'll just have to live with that, but then without her nuclear war you do get to live.
