Dear MSM, Stop Parroting The Bulls#!t About Trump's 'Adoption' Meeting. [View all]
If I ever hear the word 'adoption' used in association with Trump Jr.'s meeting with Veselnitskaya again I'm going to puke. I know the Trump shills repeat the word every time the meeting is mentioned, but you should be calling them on it. It wasn't about adoption, it was about reversing the Magnitsky Act.
Look, it's very simple:
1. Putin runs a criminal enterprise, stealing hundreds of billions from the Russian economy, and then giving it to his associates to launder by investing things like New York real estate.
2. The Magnitsky Act allows the U.S. to freeze these assets, thus kicking Putin's criminal enterprise right in the balls. (He froze American adoptions of Russian orphans as retaliation for it.)
3. Vaselnitskaya was offering to help Trump win the election (using Russian spy material on Clinton) IN EXCHANGE for Trump reversing the Magnitsky Act if he won. Quid pro quo.
If adoption was mentioned at the meeting, it was only mentioned as a plausible cover story for the meeting...which Trump and Kushner obviously paid attention to, and USED.
Fareed Zakaria (best journalist on CNN, IMHO) does an excellent interview with Bill Browder, who was the man behind the Magnitsky Act. Too bad all the other reporters obviously never watch his show.
