Special counsel Robert Mueller has reportedly begun to question Republican National Committee staffers
about the party's digital work with the Trump campaign last year.

The report indicates that Mueller may be homing in on yet another facet of Russia's election interference —
its social media influence campaign and targeted political advertising.

Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner managed the Trump campaign's data operation and recently hired a crisis
public relations firm to handle all press inquiries.

Special counsel Robert Mueller has begun to question Republican National Committee staffers about the party's 2016 campaign data operation, which helped President Donald Trump's campaign team target voters in critical swing states.

This Florida Republican directly benefitted from Russian hacks — and now he’s trying to shut down Mueller

Three Florida Republicans are helping President Donald Trump to discredit or end the special counsel probe into Russian election interference — which directly benefitted at least one of the lawmakers.

“The N.R.C.C.’s use of documents stolen by the Russians plays right into the hands of one of the United States’ most dangerous adversaries,” Luján’ warned. “Put simply, if this action continues, the N.R.C.C. will be complicit in aiding the Russian government in its effort to influence American elections.”

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi sent a similar letter to Ryan in early September, but the GOP leader never replied to either complaint.

The following month, October 2016, another super PAC tied to Ryan — the Congressional Leadership Fund — used stolen material in another advertisement, attacking Florida Democrat Joe Garcia, who eventually lost to incumbent Rep. Carlos Curbelo (R-FL).

I came home early because of the buzz about the big news @ 8:00 PM tonight.

In the timbers to Fennario, the wolves are running round,
The winter was so hard and cold, froze ten feet 'neath the ground.
Don't murder me, I beg of you, don't murder me. Please, don't murder me.

I sat down to my supper, 'twas a bottle of red whisky,
I said my prayers and went to bed, that's the last they saw of me.
Don't murder me, I beg of you, don't murder me. Please, don't murder me.

When I awoke, the Dire Wolf, six hundred pounds of sin,
Was grinning at my window, all I said was "Come on in".
Don't murder me, I beg of you, don't murder me. Please, don't murder me.

The Wolf came in, I got my cards, we sat down for a game.
I cut my deck to the Queen of Spades, but the cards were all the same.
Don't murder me, I beg of you, don't murder me. Please, don't murder me.

In the backwash of Fennario, the black and bloody mire,
The Dire Wolf collects his dues, while the boys sing 'round the fire.
Don't murder me, I beg of you, don't murder me. Please, don't murder me.
No, no, no don't murder me. I beg of you,
Don't murder me. Please, don't murder me.

Steve Ecklund, who hosts the outdoor show The Edge, bragged about killing the large Alberta mountain cat online.

Photos of him next to the dead animal have sparked outrage, including some harsh words from Laureen Harper,
the wife of Canada's former prime minister."

Must be compensating for something," she tweeted.

Russia does not now or never has needed to get their uranium from America. Feel free to
