Papadopoulos was in contact with senior members of Trump's campaign staff

You could not prove your comment concerning Obama's negotiations with Iran as a candidate. You lied.

You could not prove your comment concerning Obama's official meetings with Israel and Palestine as a candidate. You lied.

The meeting in Trump Tower between Trump's son, son-in-law, and campaign manager with representatives of the Russian government was all about Russia's promise to give Trump's associates dirt on the Clinton campaign. Tell me something. Are you really that slow? That has been common knowledge for months.

Obama's comment to the Russian President was the truth. Since his election days were over, that meant he had more freedom of action. It was a common sense statement. Please explain how it "smelled of collaboration," or are you lying again? Actually, Republicans tried to use everything to criticize Obama even when what he said made perfect sense. Your comment was not a lie, but it was pretty stupid.

 

Washington (CNN)Former US attorney Preet Bharara said Sunday that it's likely President Donald Trump's former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, is in discussions with special counsel Robert Mueller about cooperating with his investigation into Russian meddling in last year's election.

"My view is based on how things used to operate in my office and based on how the world works, (which) is that there's a substantial likelihood that they're at least in discussions with regard to cooperating," Bharara said on CNN's "State of the Union."
Asked if the President should be worried about the possibility that Flynn is cooperating with Mueller's team, Bharara said: "It depends on what the President has done and what the President's conversations with Michael Flynn and others have been. But if you've done bad things, then you should be very worried."

The Wall Street Journal reported last week:

Special counsel Robert Mueller is investigating former White House national security adviser Mike Flynn’s work on an unfinished film financed by Turkish interests as part of its wider probe into whether Mr. Flynn improperly concealed financial ties to Turkey and to Russia, according to people familiar with the matter.

The focus on the film comes amid signs that Mr. Flynn may be working on a deal with Mr. Mueller. Mr. Flynn’s lawyers this week stopped cooperating with White House attorneys defending the president, according to other people familiar with the matter, a possible sign that Mr. Flynn is sharing information with investigators.

Again, we don't know, but why else would Flynn's lawyers stop communicating with Trump's lawyers? What the WSJ and several other experts are suggesting makes perfect sense.

 

Couldn't care less about Papadapolous. He fits the classic profile of a bottom-feeding lackey willing to do anything to get a seat at the table.

That's why he was a perfect fit for the corrupt Trump Regime.



The whole lot of them would sell, or have already sold, the US out for a few extra dollars.

 

There is just way too much contact between Trump's closest associates and family to ignore. There are two possibilities.

One, Trump sought the help of Russia and WikiLeaks during the election campaign. He even said so. And he got caught.

Two, Putin has something on Trump. This would explain Trump's kid glove approach to Russia.

Or both.

 

The lawyer for President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser Michael T. Flynn met Monday morning with members of special counsel Robert Mueller’s team — the latest indication that both sides are discussing a possible plea deal, ABC News has learned.

Trump’s legal team confirmed late last week that Flynn’s attorney Robert Kelner alerted the team that he could no longer engage in privileged discussions about defense strategy in the case — a sign Flynn is preparing to negotiate with prosecutors over a deal that could include his testimony against the president or senior White House officials.

There are plenty of reasons to believe his cooperation could be problematic for Trump and his inner circle.

Kushner’s ‘Backchannel’ Idea

Flynn was present at a Dec. 1 Trump Tower meeting where Kushner reportedly proposed to Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak that they set up a backchannel for transition team communications with Moscow.

Pre-Inauguration Sanctions Talk With Russia

What ultimately led to Flynn’s White House ouster was previously undisclosed contacts he had with Russian officials before the inauguration, including one conversation where he reportedly discussed sanctions the Obama administration was imposing on Russia in late December.

A GOP Operative’s Hunt For Clinton’s Emails

The veteran GOP operative who launched a freelance campaign to obtain emails stolen from Hillary Clinton’s personal server during the 2016 race boasted of support from two key backers: Flynn and his son, Michael Flynn Jr.

In recruiting emails to computer security experts, the operative, Peter W. Smith, said Flynn’s consulting firm was assisting his effort to obtain the emails, which Smith told the Wall Street Journal he understood were likely hacked by Russian operatives.

White House Knowledge Of Flynn’s Other Foreign Dealings

Senior transition and White House officials were warned on multiple occasions about Flynn’s work for foreign governments.

Trump Runs Interference For Flynn With Comey

At an infamous Feb. 14 meeting, the day after Flynn was fired, Trump reportedly said to then-FBI Director James Comey: “I hope you can see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go. He is a good guy.”

The Trump Campaign’s Other Russia Shenanigans

Flynn fits in with the other areas of reported contacts between Trump campaign associates and Kremlin-linked figures.

I'm guessing that Trump's arms are pretty deep in some pretty deep ****. His Russian ties go WAY back and his son use to gloat of the tight financial connections between the Trumps and Russian interests. The question is not "If" there are inappropriate ties between Russia and the Trump Admin, but just how far do they go.

 

Mueller is getting there and Trump knows it. He is creating diversions and strange controversies all over the place. He created a real lulu today, disinviting Schumer and Pelosi to the White House to discuss keeping the government open. Oh, man, that is all the media is talking about.

So, people aren't talking about the Russians. They are talking about how stupid Trump is.

 

Now Flynn is negotiating for real with Mueller to save his son.

To save his son he will sacrifice Trump's son.
