I said the same thing last week when it was announced that Manafort would be pleading guilty.
What would y'all like to discuss regarding the new declassification order?

Tell me again about how the Russians managed to elect Trump. That is what this is about, no? I'm all in favor of nailing whatever criminals we find during that investigation, even if none of the illegal behavior had anything to do with Russians stealing the 2016 election. I'm good with criminals being found out and punished. But you're being entirely disingenuous when you say fear and paranoia of the Russians and Russian intrigue (psst, that's what a Red Scare is) has nothing to do with this. #RedScare2016 #SkellysheadisinthesandaboutRedScare2016 #historySkjellyfetti wrote:Yeah, yeah, yeah...

I think it's pretty clear that Russia got involved in the campaign and did so, in part, to help Trump. I don't think it's at all clear that their influence tipped the scales or won it for Trump. I don't think that's something that can be determined. I've never claimed as much and I don't think this thread is about that... but, you can make of it what you will.
Fear and paranoia has nothing to do with it. Rosenstein didn't appoint Mueller because he was paranoid about Russians. At least, I don't think so.GannonFan wrote:I'm all in favor of nailing whatever criminals we find during that investigation, even if none of the illegal behavior had anything to do with Russians stealing the 2016 election.

Russian intelligence hacked a political campaign and directed a disinformation campaign to influence our biggest election. It's a big deal. Even someone like Cid considers it to be an act of war. As we've discussed, it's a gray area of "war" - but, surely you agree that it is a significant event. No?
This is Mueller's mandate:
I think that pretty much covers what this thread is about. But, again - you can make of it what you want... it's not my thread. It's ours. <3(i) any links and/or coordination bet ween the Russian government and individuals
associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump;
(ii) any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation;
I don't think Rosenstein, Mueller, Richard Burr, or anyone involved in the investigation is motivated by paranoia. I also don't think they're motivated by politics (but, that's another discussion). It's a legitimate investigation.
and, to your last point - the Red Scare was not about fear and paranoia of Russians - it was about fear and paranoia of communists.

Re: Сделаем Америку снова великой! Trump - Russia megathread
I'd rather that you collusion weenies would push for us to give the Russians a big fat black eye
instead of your Trump obsession and desires to delegitimize our democratic processes .... which is what this is about... it isnt Trump Derangement Syndrome- it is Clinton Compensation Syndrome
We could eliminate a full 10% of Russia's tactical air force in Syria THIS WEEK if we wanted to
that would give Putin a black eye- THAT is what he understands
all this Russian collusion crap is just an unforseen bonus for Putin - and given its effects will encourage even more pervasive interference in the next election
Guys like Jelly are as valuable to Putin as a squad of Spetznaz commandos... more effective, actually

Re: Сделаем Америку снова великой! Trump - Russia megathread
Your plan sounds a little too close to Hillary's no fly zone plan to me.
And, if your theory is correct that Mueller was able to rule out coordination a week into his investigation.... and, that he has simply been putting on a show to appease Democrats for the past year+..... Isn't it his fault?
If you think "collusion weenies" are as valuable to Putin as Spetsnaz - Mueller is a national security threat. No? You believe that?

Re: Сделаем Америку снова великой! Trump - Russia megathread
President Donald Trump’s former personal attorney, Michael Cohen, has participated over the last month in multiple interview sessions lasting for hours with investigators from the office of special counsel, Robert Mueller, sources tell ABC News.
The special counsel’s questioning of Cohen, one of the president’s closest associates over the past decade, has focused primarily on all aspects of Trump's dealings with Russia -- including financial and business dealings and the investigation into alleged collusion with Russia by the Trump campaign and its surrogates to influence the outcome of the 2016 presidential election, sources familiar with the matter tell ABC News.
Investigators were also interested in knowing, the sources say, whether Trump or any of his associates discussed the possibility of a pardon with Cohen.
https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/michael ... d=57959664The news of Cohen’s dealings with federal and state investigators comes close on the heels of another potentially perilous legal development for the president: the guilty pleas last week from Trump’s former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, who struck a deal with Mueller’s prosecutors in exchange for his cooperation.
As the Manafort deal was taking shape -- Mueller’s team had already been talking to Cohen.
And given Cohen’s prolonged time spent in proximity to Trump, his family and the inner-workings of the Trump Organization, some insiders consider his cooperation with authorities to be one of most serious potential legal threats to confront the president.

The Russians interfered in our elections - so instead of responding in a way that actually could deter Putin from behaving that way in the future, we respond in a way that actually encourages him to continue interfering...

I do think our response wasn't strong enough - from Obama as well. I think they should sanction Putin personally. His billions are in the West and we could separate him from that. That was considered by the Obama administration as a response... but, was shot down as being to extreme. That would deter him much better than getting in a hot war in the Middle East, imo. But, I know your neoconservativism is acting up again.
You still haven't answered my question: Is Mueller valuable to Putin?
And, I disagree. I think the Deep State conspiracy theorists are what is valuable to Putin. The FBI and our intelligence agencies are now seen as enemies. Trump's latest declassification order would provide valuable intelligence to Russia if carried out in full. Agree or disagree? (though, I know you won't actually answer )

nor do I debate 9 year olds
but to your last question - no - I do not agree with the decision to declassify the FISA process. But if the FBI is capable of scrubbing it for methods and sources then all that would be left is the "what" - which would not be useful to foreign intelligence under most circumstances. But if Trump just lays it all bare - no I do not agree with it. But he does have the authority, and he will be responsible for the consequences.
I'm glad to see you are serious about classified info being out in the open though... it proves you arent a complete idiot (just a partisan one)
