What a spider web this is. One of Devin Nunes's 2 WH leaker/contacts is married to a woman

who worked for the Russians!

Thanks to E. Randol Schoenberg (the attorney who became famous for his work helping a woman get family artwork back from the Nazis) for doing the detective work that unearthed this link.

In the rush to connect the dots between the Trump Administration and Russian President Vladimir Putin, a Jewish wedding provided the latest purported link.

Specifically, it’s the Jewish wedding of Ezra Cohen-Watnick, the White House aide whom the New York Times identified as having leaked sensitive intelligence to a high-ranking Republican congressman in March. New information suggests Cohen-Watnick’s wife worked on behalf of the Russian government as a Washington D.C-based public relations specialist before they married.

In November, the 30-year-old Trump aide celebrated his upcoming wedding with Rebecca Miller, a content executive at the multinational public-relations firm Ketchum, which was retained until 2015 by the Russian government. While at Ketchum, Miller reportedly worked to “make Russia look better.”


The information comes from an oral history interview of Miller’s mother, Vicki Fraser, by the State Historical Society of Missouri in August 2014 (Fraser was born in St. Louis).

I have to admit I find myself more surprised these days when someone involved with Trump isn't connected to Russia, then when it comes out they are.

scurrying around.

Into everything. Burrowed in our favorite chair, inside our robe's pocket. Hiding inside the walls. Buried deep and tunneling below the surface, and crawling up our leg.

Good night Mary!

We need D-Con, Raid, and Ant Baits.

All kidding aside, I'm fucking scared.

Are we paying enough attention to the changes they're quickly and quietly making?

knew something was amiss. If anyone who ever had a acquaintance that worked the Hill,they well tell you that there is a Grape Vine of insider Info from Hell. Lots and lots of gamesmanship going on.

Except there's just one degree and everyone in the Trump administration is somehow connected to Russia.
