He is on video asking Russia to hack Hillary and find those missing emails and would be rewarded by the press. Literally.

I wonder if this is enough to incriminate him? Or at least warrant further investigation into him and everyone in his campaign staff.
Lock him away for treason and be done with it.
And to think.. the man who will become president, feeds on this bot attention.
Its so god damn blatant.
My god. We live in a nightmare.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
Those 35 diplomats are probably annoyed cause they have to fly back in ~3 weeks

An investigation is pretty fucking late at this point but better than nothing.
Hillary did not win. It was her job to take care of this.

Because he is talking to Putin right now trying to make sure his strings are nice and tight for the puppet show later.

I can't wait to see people defending Trump once he shows how much of a puppet he is and reverses the sanctions.
He won't respond to this in a high profile way. He will keep quiet about this.
It's going to be hard for him to reverse this without looking bad.

Fishing for an avatar quote harder than Russia phished for the Democrat's emails.

Did you see his response last night about it all with Don King? Word salad alright. We have speed!
Definitely agree.
But I say investigate, and impeach. If found guilty, lock him away for treason. We'll deal with Mike Pence for 4 years and make sure to do everything we can in 2018 and 2020 to fix this shit. Mike Pence is obviously not ideal in the least, and I can't stand him either, but fuck Trump at this point.

The optimist in me would hope that his entire ticket and cabinet would have to be gone, the cynic in me is thinking Trump himself isn't even gonna be hurt by this, let alone impeached.

Not sure if this was posted.

Another one in NY as well. I mean, it's cool that they're doing this but one has to wonder, how long have they've known about this? Kinda fucked up that they did nothing until now.

Maybe they were just keeping tabs on them and figuring out what they knew? You've gotta assume Russia is trying to spy on us anyway, might as well keep them in your sights.

Keep the dream on lol
If Obama had gone in on this DURING the election...
A) Trump would have won by more
B) We'd be looking at an unprecedented constitutional crisis, or at least the GOP would have tried for one.
And when one of our security services decides to go full partisan the sunday before the election, we have clear evidence that no normal national seciurity effort would have worked this time around.
The important thing is that we address this NOW.
If Trump goes full slurp after the election, Russia will effectively be in control of how social media and cyber securityy mean it can exist and even prosper with its shitty broken economy and third class military indusrtrial complex.
Why? There is nothing Russia can do about it except expel our diplomats which nobody cares about. For as much bravado and posturing Russia does, they are essentially a failed nation state trying to become relevant again.

When is Putin out?
It'll never happen in my lifetime, but I'd love to see Russia be liberal.

Cyber Warfare on Viceland had an episode on Russian hackers and Bogachev. He's definitely being protected by the Kremlin.
They got Trump working to make russia great again. They'll be alright.
With Paul Ryan's statement and folks like McCain and Graham and Trumps favorite McMullin going on on stuff like this, I don't think Trump has the tact or intelligence handle this effectively.
Will be interesting to see what he does and how a) incompetent it is b) clueless c) or how nakedly a puppet he is.
For now, they can all just laugh it off as "oh ho ho these butt hurt Libs, think Russia cost them election" that that shit won't fly for very long and will seem more and more silly. Specially with headlines like "Trump lifts Russian sanctions, blames computer speed"

President Obama expels 35 🇷🇺 diplomats in Cold War deja vu. As everybody, incl 🇺🇸 people, will be glad to see the last of this hapless Adm.

He will run in 2018 again and win. So 2024 he will get replaced by someone temporarily while being minister and then come back in 2030 for another 6-12 years. So all in all Putin will run Russia until 2036 or 2042. I think he will be too old to go anymore after that.

2018. He changed terms from 4 years to 6 years. When he gets elected again, then 2024. If they overrule the two consecutive term limit.... forever.

Have you seen the statements from Paul Ryan, McCain and Graham? They're clearly taking a hard line when it comes to Russia. Trump can't reverse this or he will be in deep shit.

If there's one thing Ryan and McCain are known for in politics it's their principled non-partisan stances!

And this is just the superficial shit. We're not gonna know about the covert ops done to Russia.
It's not just for the Dems. It's also to cause friction between Trump and the GOP. There are those in the Republican party who absolutely DO NOT want to be seen as aiding Russia. Some of these congressman are relics and remember the Cold War. Trump is going to try and repair this and that will piss off some people on the right.

Ryan yeah, but McCain has been saying this stuff since the initial reports a few weeks ago. I don't think he's turning around on this one. He's an old school Republican and he does not want Russia getting anything over on the US.

What's wrong with his statement?
Suggesting that the media should hack people for one, and suggesting that Russia was objective/unbiased towards either party in this for two.
What planet/ year are you from?
Russia committed acts of espionage during the elections and aggression in Syria.
Do you really think that should be taken lightly?
Because fear sells. And they've bought in.
We've bred a generation of people who jump at shadows and who believe the worst is an inevitability.

He's saying the media should've committed a crime by hacking the servers of his political opposition.

A sitting US Rep saying that spying on American officials is OK because it benefits him doesn't raise any red flags with you? What's your opinion on Ukraine there? Any ... opinions on Brexit?
