It's the Contras all over again. Executive level treason, passed off on a lower level crony who will "accidentally" destroy the evidence. Someone's going to hang, and they may have to be dragged onto the national mall by an angry mob to do it.

Really seriously! This one has be *really* upset - if there *is* a connection, then Russia's gotten *way* too far down into the US government.

Right now, I think the GOP has three factions: one run by the obscenely wealthy, one run by the sociopathic obscenely wealth, and one pwnd by Russia.

Sadly, not in the US. The prez is the prez until impeached or declared unfit under ART 25.

You make a good point -- the lowest level public servants are relieved of duty until such matters are resolved, but the highest level are left in office until...

Vladimir Putin is known as a ruthless leader and master manipulator.

I thought conspiracies and cover-ups, by their nature, were secret--or at least until things got to unwieldy and then everything went to shit, like in Watergate. There were a lot of people involved--CREEP, Mitchell, Haldeman, Ehrlichman Colson, Dean, Mitchell, etc. etc. et fucking cetera.

Trump/Putin scandal is an odd one. He is obviously guilty as sin but it's a real "who cares?" attitude among those who should care.

Numbnuts Nunes is soooooo out of his league facing Adam Schiff...well facing anything that doesn't have a plow attached to the back of it. It's so nice to see Schiff put the "intelligence" in House Intelligence Committee.

Donald Trump went on national television & asked Russia to hack Hillary Clinton. Should that not be case closed right the fuck there? Obviously it's meant to be a distraction. I'd speculate someone has some blackmail on Nunes (is Pizzagate is more projection?) or he's getting paid off somehow. Those are the only possible reasons for him to be doing this.
