It never ends. This administration cannot find a single person to hire not entangled with Russia is one way or another. I had no idea that 100% of lawyers, law enforcement, businessmen, and administrators were all involved in Russia. Such bullshit, I know 1 person in my life whose involved with Russia in anyway in that he did a study abroad in Russia years ago and visits there every few years to catch up with friends. How is it 100% of the people Trump knows are heavily involved with Russian business?

4. So strange

And this one was weird in that he defended someone against the Russians. Removed it from his bio in January, and now states he couldn't have known he'd be nominated from something by Trump. Give me a break, he was contacted by the Administration and told to scrub his bio. This was terrifyingly probably done for 2 reasons, 1. Simply bad optics for the public to see Russia in a guys bio now. 2. Have to let Russia know this guy isn't their adversary. The 2nd one of those is scary, we don't want to give Russia the impression that our FBI director isn't totally working for Russia.

Here's the scary thing, in another year this admin will get much better at covering their tracks.

Prediction, we have seen nothing yet. They are at about a 3 on a scale of 1-10 of how depraved and corrupt they will get. This is going to get a lot bumpier and American Democracy might not survive.

2. This is "our" fault

our being the people.

This guy was SO CLEARLY in bed with Russia, hell, he looked into a camera and asked them to hack his opposition.

And, 1/3 of voters gladly voted for him and 1/3 of potential voters didn't bother to show up.

5. Yup

And him looking at the camera and asking them to hack for him is rarely even discussed anymore, it's the freaking smoking gun of collusion. We know Donald colluded with Russia because we 100% have video evidence of it.

3. Does ANYONE in this administration not have ties to Russia?

6. I really doubt it

This is one of those criminal situations where in order to assure loyalty you have to be a criminal too so you have something to lose. Kind of like when police are accepting bribes they insist all the police involved take money so they are all in it together. Every single person they hire is going to be beholden to Russia. It's sickening. And Russia has stuff on most of the GOP Congress members.

How did Russia take over the Republican Party? It's just insane, but Russia is in full control of 1 of our major political parties.
