Second Intel Dem Confirms Trump-Russia Evidence 'More Than Circumstantial'

Two members of the House Intelligence Committee have told The Daily Beast that they have now seen "more than circumstantial" evidence of collusion between Trump associates and Russia.

"The evidence is more than circumstantial," said Rep. Adam Schiff, the top Democrat on the committee said. Rep. Mike Quigley, another Democrat on the committee, said in a separate conversation Thursday he had seen the same as Schiff.

Schiff said that the public would have to wait until the panel completed its investigation into Russian interference with the U.S. election to see the evidence he’s referencing.

"I certainly think at the conclusion of the investigation we ought to disclose as much as we can, but I don't think we should be disclosing evidence during the investigation," Schiff told The Daily Beast.

2. I've seen Trumpsters satisfyingly freaking out

... it's all the same old litany: "Snowflakes libtards safe spaces President Trump accept it sore losers Hillary emails Obama wiretapping fake news FAKE NEWS Snowflakes libtards safe spaces President Trump accept it sore losers Hillary emails Obama wiretapping fake news FAKE NEWS Snowflakes libtards safe spaces President Trump accept it sore losers Hillary emails Obama wiretapping fake news FAKE NEWS." Because of course all they do is trot around sneering the same nonsense.

They are FRANTIC however. This isn't going away. This isn't media-manufactured hysteria. This isn't fake news. Their sheer desperation oozes with every insult they snivel.

4. I just wonder who gets to play the role of Scooter Libby in this play

Sure as shit 45* was coordinating efforts with the Russians, he's too much of a control freak not to have been. 45* will find a couple of his underlings to lay the blame on, just like Cheney did when a CIA agent was outed. Whether or not 45* gets away with treason remains to be seen.

5. Carter Page is my pick.

He looks ripe for playing the tethered goat.

6. Agreed! After catching his act on Chris Hayes (was it just last week? I have no idea!), he appears

to be a shaky, strange, hanger-on/would be playa...not as well connected/protected/monied as Manafort or Flynn, Stone or Sater, etc.

Utterly disposable.

Don't get me wrong, I know nothing! - but, again, I agree!

8. my vote, too.

not really a washington player.

rachel did a show on where some of these people came from, as they were pretty unknown here. but they were well known in moscow.

page really was a powerless bit player. sent by pootie.
he has more to fear than a us prison cell.

12. Jared tRump

may be used as the patsy, to get him out of the way of Donald and Ivanka love affair?? I STILL think Maleria's father (who lives at tRump Tower) is in this mess up to his neck. Did he organize the Russian mafia gambling parties at the Tower? Was he the go-between for tRump and Russian mobsters plus Putin?

9. Why is it only Dems coming out with that specific info?

This: "more than circumstantial". No Reps speaking up?

10. Their loyalties are to thei party before their country

For all of the republican talk of being patriots and loving our country, it all goes out the window when their political party does something wrong and is under attack for it.
