Mother Russia: Friend or Foe

I thought we could use a fresh Russia thread considering the heat got turned up with the Sessions firing/anti-Russia investigation/pro-Trump knob slobber Matt Whitaker hiring.

Honestly, I'd really like to hear thoughts about why Whitaker doesn't need to be voted in for a Senate-confirmed position (even if it is just temporary), whether his publicly-stated anti-Russia investigation rant means he should recuse himself from the investigation, or whether you think an investigation that has already resulted in many indictments/guilty pleas + paid for itself many times over with the Manafort assets seizure is worthy of being slowly defunded or shut down entirely.

Also interesting is Whitaker's involvement on the advisory board of a scam company that has been ordered by a federal court to pay penalties of 25+ million after misleading investors (I'll spare the embarrassment of sharing the products they were promoting).

And finally, whether you guys think there's any truth to the rumor Trump Jr. will be indicted shortly for his role in the meeting at Trump Tower. Let's hear your thoughts.

We know that, and they will. Remember it was the extremist right that somehow got the impression the laws didn’t apply to them.

Simple yet eloquent. Congrats on returning to the "GOP is the party of laws" base.

Yes it’s shocking I believe people who break the law should be prosecuted and should go to jail if guilty. Crazy

Being a constant lawbreaker when younger, minor degree in criminology and then working in the court service units...I got some experience there

I thought it was surprising and interesting what Rex tillerson came out and said with interactions with the president. Paraphrasing.. he said many things trump wanted him to do had legal implications which trump had not thought through...effectively trump wanted him to do things which may be illegal. The problem I have is there is no type of risk control or organized effort to mitigate certain legal issues that arise with the president agenda. I’m certainly not saying these are nefarious, criminal intent agenda of trump...it’s the fact he is not vetting his agenda through the proper legal channels before trying to get the ball rolling. That’s a problem and pleading ignorance isn’t viable when u the president.

Re: Mother Russia: Friend or Foe

For anybody who wants to go down the rabbit hole in regards to Trump/Russia, I'd like to introduce you to a user on Reddit who is trying to paint the picture in regards to that relationship. His/her name is PoppinKREAM, and s/he's become popular on Reddit for writing detailed explanations involving all the connections where s/he sources articles for everything written.

https://www.reddit.com/r/ShitPoppinKreamSays/

Here's one of their latest posts detailing how Trump was still working with Russia in mid-2016 to build the Trump Tower in Moscow, months after Cohen claimed to end the venture:

Re: Mother Russia: Friend or Foe

There is absolutely no way moscow trump Tower was not the reason behind everything he did and is doing with respect to Russia. How he thought that would slide under the radar is beyond me. What a dumb cocky shit.
