[Official] Russia Endorsing Trump, Again, Set to Interfere on His Behalf, Again

It will be but his base will either not believe it or simply not give a ****. The only chance we have is unprecedented turnout in swing states.

 

Sadly, Republicans just don’t care about Russia interfering in our elections if it benefits them. Sad and disgusting.

 

Putie n the Butthole

 

“Russia intends to interfere with the ongoing Democratic primaries as well as the general election”

need more info on the interference of the Dem primaries

 

Dont need them goofy ass russians. Screw putin.

Oh yeah, screw china too

 

devin nunes again...

 

treason
noun


trea·son | \ ˈtrē-zᵊn \
Definition of treason


1: the offense of attempting by overt acts to overthrow the government of the state to which the offender owes allegiance or to kill or personally injure the sovereign or the sovereign's family
2: the betrayal of a trust : TREACHERY

18 U.S. Code § 2381.Treason

• U.S. Code
• Notes

prev | next
Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

Crimes Related to Treason
Treason is related and similar to several crimes. More than one criminal statute can apply to the same conduct, meaning that something falling short of treason may constitute another offense.

Misprision of Treason. This crime involves someone knowing a person has committed an act of treason, failing to report it to a proper authority, and taking some action to conceal it. (For a detailed discussion of a related topic, see Misprision of Felony.)

Espionage. Espionage is obtaining classified information pertaining to national defense for use by a foreign nation. If the defendant aids a U.S. ally, treason can’t be the charge, but espionage can. For instance, Ethel and Julius Rosenberg were charged with espionage rather than treason for trying to pass atomic secrets to the Soviet Union during World War II.

Seditious Conspiracy. This offense consists of conspiring to overthrow or destroy the government by force. Unlike treason, seditious conspiracy doesn’t require that the defendant owe allegiance to the United States. (For more on conspiracy generally, see Conspiracy: Laws and Penalties.)

Terrorism. One of the differences between treason and terrorism is that terrorism statutes apply to any kind of foreign national and don’t ever require that the U.S. be at war. (There are, however, similarities between treason and terrorism-related offenses—for instance, statutes criminalize providing material support to and harboring terrorists, among other actions.) To learn more, see Terrorist Threats.

Conspiracy to Levy War. This precursor to treason doesn’t require that people be assembled and ready to use force.

 

And... there were intel officials that wanted to hide the intel on russia interference to help trump...

 

If russia is attacking our democratic elections , sto again to benefit the sitting president, surely America can count on the checks and balances of our Senate to intervene and protect us? Well, no...

 

Can Republicans just try putting America first and seeing how it feels. Honestly, they could use it to show how tough they are and how weak the Dems are. They could lie about how Obama did nothing to check Russian interference, corruption and stuff and show how they will protect America.

It isn't true but it would at least put our nation first. What's sad are people that don't care about protecting our nation.

 

Never forget...

All the Trump associates convicted or sentenced in the Mueller investigation

Longtime Trump associate Roger Stone was sentenced to 4o months in prison for crimes that include obstruction of justice, lying to Congress and witness tampering.

Why it matters: Stone is the seventh person to be convicted and sentenced for crimes unearthed by former special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation. His case has been at the heart of ongoing tensions between President Trump and his Justice Department.

The big picture: Suspected criminal activity among Trump associates extends beyond Mueller’s Russia probe. Federal prosecutors are investigating the president's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani's personal business dealings in Ukraine.

Sentenced:

• Former Trump 2016 campaign chairman Paul Manafort: Sentenced to 7.5 years in prison this March for bank and tax fraud and crimes related to his work as a political consultant in Ukraine.
• Trump's former personal attorney Michael Cohen: Received a three-year prison sentence in Dec. 2018 for tax evasion, bank fraud, lying to Congress and campaign finance violations.
• Former Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos: Convicted of lying to investigators about about Russian contacts. He served 12 days in prison and in October, filed to run for former Rep. Katie Hill's California seat.
• Richard Pinedo: The California man was sentenced to six months in prison in Oct. 2018 for selling bank account numbers to Russians who engaged in election interference. He has no known connection to Trump.
• Dutch attorney Alex van der Zwaan: Pleaded guilty to lying to federal investigators about his work for law firm Skadden, Arps, Meagher, & Flom LLP and Affiliates in 2012. He was sentenced to 30 days in prison and a $20,000 fine.
• Ex-Trump campaign deputy chairman Rick Gates: Pleaded guilty in Feb. 2018 to conspiracy and lying to the FBI. After cooperating extensively in multiple investigations, Gates was sentenced in December to 45 days in jail, three years of probation and 300 hours of community service.
• Roger Stone: Sentenced to 40 months in prison for crimes that include obstruction of justice, lying to Congress and witness tampering. A federal jury convicted Stone last year after he lied to Congress about his efforts to learn more about when WikiLeaks would publish damaging emails about Hillary Clinton during the 2016 presidential election.

Awaiting sentencing:

• Former national security adviser Michael Flynn: The retired three-star general pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI in Dec. 2017.

hahaha they are running back the russia hoax playbook again?

reeks of desparation

 

Who's running back? The Intelligence agencies of the United States of America? This wasn't a Democratic initiative. This was a discovery by the agencies assigned to protect our nation from foreign adversaries. Why would they be desperate?

 

Who is? The intelligence agencies? What reeks of desperation is the GOP and their desperate efforts to cling onto power at all costs.

 

Trust me we’re not going to forget.
