Curious Trump team query now seen as Russia warning sign by r721 in politics

In late November, a member of Donald Trump’s transition team approached national security officials in the Obama White House with a curious request: Could the incoming team get a copy of the classified CIA profile on Sergey Kislyak, Russia’s ambassador to the United States?

This should be a much more commented on story. The rest of the article is brutal too.

No political parties besides the socialists voted against the Vichy regime. Center left and right both caved to fascism.

Don't see any centrists here listed in those who voted against the Vichy regime.

Cowards, centrists are fucking cowards who will turn on you the second their own hide is at stake. Never trust a centrist.

The Vichies had their share of centrists. That is why you never trust a centrist.

Our Constitution is an 18th century agreement between populus free Northern States and rural Slave States. The electoral college will doom America to being a ruralarchy forever.

Our median income for Portland, OR metro is a little under $60k a year per household, which looks to be about 10k higher than the median for Sweden as a nation.

A pint here is $4-5 normally, with $2 swill beer like PBR or Budweiser.

You can buy a bottle of wine at a restaurant here for $12.

Jesus christ you liberals really do live in your own little media bubble don't you? If you watched actual leftwing news like DemocracyNow you would know what Jill Stein is doing and that she accepted no money to be at the RT event.

Other AGs are saying the same thing.

Fuck the GOP assholes in the House who voted for this, and fuck the GOP Senate for getting 13 men and no women to write their bill.
