So it is about Ukraine, just like I said and you called it "deflection." WTF is with you, man?
Here's something for you to read regarding your link.
Byron York: What really happened with the GOP platform and Russia
So you don't miss it:
In the end, nothing was taken out of the party's original draft platform on Russia. At Denman's behest, and with Trump's approval, the platform was made tougher with language pledging ongoing and possibly increased sanctions. It was also made tougher with Denman's reference to "NATO defense planning," which had not been in the original draft.
Finally, Denman's lethal aid suggestion was changed to "appropriate assistance to the armed forces" — a change that put the specific promise of U.S. aid to Ukraine's armed forces in the platform where it had not been originally.
"The platform ended up tougher than it started, compared from the beginning to the end," Denman told me, although she added she still believes her lethal aid provision should have been included in the final document.
Oh, here, you'll love this:
because the 2016 Democratic platform, while pledging to "stand up to Russian aggression," said nothing about U.S. sanctions against Russia or about U.S. aid to Ukraine's armed forces, both of which were in the Trump-approved Republican platform. Needless to say, the Democratic platform said not a word about lethal aid to Ukraine.
WASHINGTON – Occasionally, his signature appears on court documents. But on the most consequential days of the nearly two-year investigation into Russia’s interference in the 2016 election, the man leading it – Robert Mueller – has been conspicuously absent.
When President Donald Trump's senior aides and confidants paraded through federal courtrooms to face criminal charges his office had filed, the former FBI director was nowhere to be seen. When some of them came back to court to be convicted, he said nothing.
It's possible he never will.
Mueller's investigation has cast a shadow over nearly all of the first two years of Trump's presidency. Prosecutors working to determine whether Trump's campaign coordinated with Russian efforts to sway the election that put him in office have brought charges against some of his top aides and revealed extensive Moscow ties. As the inquiry grinds closer to its conclusion, there are signs that the public might never learn the full extent of what Mueller has – or hasn't – found.
If you want to just talk about the Ukraine I will give you this. The republicans did have a good stance about arming Ukraine During the last half of the Obama Admin but Trump didn't have that as his stance during the election (he was to busy praising Putin). It seemed to take some coaxing from the Republicans in congress. Most dems did seem to have had a standoffish stance in generalBumping for @Mick
The Magnitsky Act Seems to stick in Putin's craw more than Trump selling arms to Ukraine. It's still a very, very, very sore spot for Putin and his Oligarchs. Selling arms is the Crown Jewel on Trump's tough action? That will show him for election meddling since Trump just dropped the sanctions of Oleg. You may need to get back to me when we start deploying nukes to europe to say he was tough on Russia for violating the arms treaty. As for Syria, Russia feels right at home. Why wouldn't they? Trump will just call them up and warn them we are getting ready to strike a certain airbase.Trump has dealt with Russia much more harshly than the last administration.
Blissfully ignorant?I don't see Russia suffering any fallout from Trump's bluster. Trump has laid a beating on them. lol
No I can tell by the title. Give me a hint at the horrors within.
A Challenge for Adam Schiff
quodverum.com
Dear Congressman Schiff:
I’ve read your press release "Chairman Schiff Statement on House Intelligence Committee Investigation.”
And I saw your tweet.
Now, in your press release, you say that you are going to investigate this:![]()
(3) Whether any foreign actor has sought to compromise or holds leverage, financial or otherwise, over Donald Trump, his family, his business, or his associates;
(4) Whether President Trump, his family, or his associates are or were at any time at heightened risk of, or vulnerable to, foreign exploitation, inducement, manipulation, pressure, or coercion, or have sought to influence U.S. government policy in service of foreign interests;
By “foreign actor” and “foreign interests” you mean Russia. You’re going to investigate the question of whether or not Russia has a hold on Trump.
Fine.
Here’s the question that I want to ask you, Congressman Schiff.
If Russia has any kind of hold over Donald Trump, then why did Trump inflict on Russia the worst military defeat she has ever suffered at the hands of Americans?
It happened near Deir Ezzor, Syria, on February 7, 2018. A Russian assault battalion of 550 men armed with tanks and artillery attacked about 40 Americans, and we killed 200-300 and wounded 200-300. The Russians took 100 percent casualties.
Now, this was the worst military defeat Americans ever inflicted on the Russian empire, or the USSR, or the Russian Federation. When it comes to Russia in any form, Donald Trump is the American president who did the most damage militarily. General Patton would be proud of President Trump.
How was it possible for Trump to do this if he’s vulnerable to Russian influence?
If you can give me a CREDIBLE answer, Congressman, I will donate $10,000 to the charity of your choice. Note: a CREDIBLE answer. In other words, it has to make sense. I must be able to diagram it.
Just to make sure we understand each other, the Russians who we killed were soldiers, not mercenaries. They’re known as Ghost Soldiers.
"Officially, Russia is participating only in an air war over Syria with a small number of special forces on the ground. Moscow denies that its troops are involved in regular ground combat operations."
"However, in interviews with more than a dozen people with direct knowledge of these deployments, Reuters has established that Russian fighters are playing a more substantial role in ground combat than that the role the Kremlin says is being played by the regular Russian military."
Russia did this in Ukraine. The Little Green Men were said to not be Russian army.
In reality, those were men off the 76th Guards Air Assault Division.
"It should be noted the Pskov-based 76th Guards Air Assault Division was involved in the 2008 Russia-Georgia war, two Chechen wars as well as the annexation of Crimea in 2014. Its troops were also spotted in Donbas. In August 2014, president Vladimir Putin awarded the division with the Suvorov Order for ‘successfull completion of combat missions’.”
Not only did Trump inflict the worst American defeat on Russia EVER, it’s clear that the Russians were misled. They thought the Americans would back off. Instead, the Russians were not only stopped, they were slaughtered. Gunships, bombers, and artillery pounded the Russians for three hours. They had long since ended their advance. The goal was to annihilate them, as James Mattis said.
If Trump is vulnerable to Russian influence, then how is it that Trump humiliated Vladimir Putin in a way never before done in the entire history of our country?
I await your answer, Congressman.
And one more question:
I saved the Web page on which you published your press release. In a file labeled “211.js” I found this:
u.__SECRET_DOM_DO_NOT_USE_OR_YOU_WILL_BE_FIRED=r,u.__SECRET_DOM_SERVER_DO_NOT_USE_OR_YOU_WILL_BE_FIRED=o,e.exports=u
Does this mean you’re going be fired?
And what is it with secret servers? Didn’t anybody learn anything from the 2016 elections?
Take it to Q because nobody GAF.

lol.......You guys crack me upIf this finishes within the next two months it would surprise me considering there's two more years atleast of Trump.
Not surprising is what I've been saying for months and what is now starting to slowly leak day after day.
Robert Mueller has spent two years investigating Trump, and he hasn't said a word. It's possible he never will.
I don't think he gets to just walk off in to the sunset after a two year smear campaign. Once it ends and Barr is in, the investigator will become the investigated.
You realize the only reason you are attracted to the Q nonsense is because you cannot accept reality. Apparently your reality is somewhere between Trump is breaking up pedo rings and taking down the deep state.
Putin wanted Trump to win, and Trump has downplayed Russian influence in the election despite all the intelligence committees saying its true. But, he’ll definitely side against America if the alternative may delegitimize his victory.Coming from someone who believes Trump is Putin’s puppet , there was collusion between Trump and Russia , and Russian bots caused Hillary to lose by swaying voters ... that’s just funny right there .

“What about...”Did the intelligence organizations also mention ...China , North Korea , Iran or any other country trying to influence our elections or us ( the U.S.) trying to influence any other countries elections ? We all know all of this happens but for some reason only Russia and their bots are the dangerous ones .![]()
If you want to say Trump is Putin's puppet as meaning I think the Trump campaign was highly compromised, then we agreeComing from someone who believes Trump is Putin’s puppet , there was collusion between Trump and Russia , and Russian bots caused Hillary to lose by swaying voters ... that’s just funny right there .
If you want to say Trump is Putin's puppet as meaning I think the Trump campaign was highly compromised, then we agree
If you want to say Russian bots caused Hillary to lose by swaying votes as meaning Russian interference in the election, through targeted social media and a complex smear campaign comprised of Hacking the DNC and government agencies and the release of stolen data by wikileaks at times to maximize effect, as having an impact on voters then we agree.
You want to compare that to Q? Now that is funny.
