This a.m..I posted the fact that the N.Y. Times piece..

I posted this a.m.and it has drawn little attention... This NY Times piece highlighted the fact that the F.B.I notified Trump right before his Inauguration and was explicitly told by U.S. Intelligence that Putin directly gave the direct orders to hack our 2016 Election..

It was reported last night by Lawrence O' Donnell and he and his guests went batshit crazy, stating that this was a huge story.. They talked about it for close to 25 minutes.. I was so excited.

Not a word about this a.m. I was really depressed. Called everyone I knew after the show and said "wait for tomorrow" Wow was I wrong.

I guess the snip below from the article might be considered Important... No?

"There is overwhelming evidence that our president, for the first time in our history, is deliberately or through gross negligence or because of his own twisted personality engaged in treasonous behavior — behavior that violates his oath of office to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

But they have also been covering the even more shocking news that the Pestilent of the United States was also considering turning a former ambassador and other Americans over to the Russians.

It establishes the time line and provides proof that Trump has been lying ever since, which we all KNOW, of course, but the investigation has to deal in facts, and this is factual.
