    Snowden gets asylum in Russia, leaves airport


    Back in the day, Russian citizens where filling for asylum in America. This just tells me how far this country has fallen, all over an over zealous government abusing its power - under the guise of 'safety'

    Hate to tell you Sparky , but even "back in the day" we had Americans defecting to the Soviet Union LOL

    As for this clown, I'd tell Putin that if he wasn't on the next plane to DC there would be no US assistance the next time Russia had a wheat shortage.

    Well, since Monsanto has been using GMO's in their wheat crops, and folks are in an uproar over it, I don't think there will be too much of a worry these days. :wink:

    :fingerscrossed:
    Snowden uses report that Russia may turn him over as proof he is not spy
    February 11, 2017 - Edward Snowden, the former National Security contractor who leaked classified material in 2013, is using the report that Russia is considering handing him over to the U.S. as a "gift" as evidence that he is not a spy.

    Notice the condition put on Snowdon by Putin. That he stop leaking US secrets.

    Is this because Trump wants a reset?

    Why bother Snowdon if Putin is some evil B'**** committed to causing trouble for the USA?

    The US and Russia can't kill them all, but they can put one hellacious dent in them.
