Donald Trump Jr.'s Russia email scandal shakes the presidency, v4: Cover of TIME

[Thunderflash500]

Addresses the scandal how?
Credit to the NYT for forcing this information out; you can damned well know this meeting would've stayed a secret otherwise.

Not even six months into this administration, and they've essentially admitted to colluding with foreign agents to swing an American election.

I know you don't care because you have no integrity, but step out and let patriots discuss this shit if you're gonna be a retarded dope about it.

You claim to be an independent yet all of your ideas are so straight forward and easy to predict. You're a Democrat and you always will be. This is just hilarious to read. Swinging an election with what? Truth? The outrage!

We have so many problems, and yet Twitter has all of you completely blinded. Enjoy the circus Trump has thrown for all of you.

Something that just occurred to me...
If there were other meetings... and how unlikely do any of us think THAT is...

This is something the Russians can hold over WH heads, putting some people in peril of coercion.

Mueller is gonna take a few months and investigate this thoroughly

@Madmick hasn't this thread reached the 1000 post limit?

This thread is sad because of posts like these.

I haven't been participating in this discussion as I have been away on vacation and I really haven't had time, but I have checked in periodically as this whole thing has unfolded.

To address this poster- Trump Jr. met with a team of Russians representing Russian government in the hopes of getting intel (dirt, most likely obtained illegally through espionage) on Clinton. During the meeting the team of Russians provided a folder with intel and asked about having sanctions the Mginstsky sanctions being removed.

This is a classic conspiracy. All of this information is available to the public, and Trump Jr. himself published the e-mails where this meeting/arrangement was discussed.

I don't know if you or the others still saying there was nothing to this meeting are playing devil's advocate, trolling, uninformed or really just that dumb. It's just SAD SAD SAD

I don't read into all this Russia stuff because it's been a huge waste of my time in the past. I ask questions to better Inform myself.

"During the meeting the team of Russians provided a folder with intel and asked about having sanctions the Mginstsky sanctions being removed"

can you source this for my own
edification? This came up in the emails or meeting? Did Trump Jr follow thru with the exchange?

 

[oleDirtyBast4rd]

Dude, do you really think it's okay to hop in twenty pages into the discussion and demand everybody catch you up on it?

No, im asking you to be more specific. Make a claim. Tell me what happened. For gods sake just stop speculating and acting like it's gospel. Did Trump jr. Break the law regarding the Magnitsky act? If yes, how so?

Speculate more? Keep digging SOMEBODY must have broken the law right?

"It's disgusting, it's so phony, I can't think of bigger lies."

"So as far as this incident as far as you know, this is everything?"

"This is everything this is everything."

Junior, lying because once again, it wasn't everything

NYT didn't force anything out. This information was handed to them by leakers with access to classified NSA data on private citizens. NYT did what it always does, it recycled deep state leaks. The email itself is innocent compared to the violation of privacy that has taken place.

Donald Trump is a patriot and is fighting for America on both domestic and international stages. The only patriots I see here are the ones defending their President against a deep state coup.

When you get Mitch McConnell and Elizabeth Warren, and John McCain and Kamala Harris, and Tom Cotton and Chuck Schumer, to all agree on something (that Trump's powers to reduce sanctions on Russia need to be limited), you know you are dealing with some shady shit from the POTUS.

"Hey guys, I just now thought of this thing that has been speculated on about the dangers of collusion, since the very beginning of all this stuff."

Seriously, if you're just coming to that realization now, what were you bitching about before? That's literally the entire reason why your side is shitting their pants over possible collusion. For Christ's sake, at least know what you're mad about.

As somebody that is pretty centered on the whole situation it's the same old BS.

Whine
Point figures
Complain
Nothing happens
Rinse
Repeat

LOL at deep state, it was either Steve Bannon again (he is the one who leaked the dirt on Kushner and Russia in the past), or more likely, it was Kushner's team trying to make Don Jr. the fall guy as he isn't in the administration. Kushner's lawyers found this stuff while trying to amend Kushner's disclosure form, yet again, to incorporate all the Russian meetings he didn't report the first two times.

I wonder if Twitter is the weapon that will finally bring down liberals. It seems to totally paralyze them. It's all they care about. They obsess over stories that can't even be remembered a few days after it happens. It's like a light attracting insects. We get these massive threads that never go anywhere, and yet are filled with tweets.

 

[oleDirtyBast4rd]

"Educate me about the basics because I'm fucking lazy."

I thought the emails were much longer. Just read the whole thing, and the Magnitsky act wasn't mentioned at all. I'm assuming then that they brought it up in the meeting. What exactly did Trump Jr do wrong?

You're using logic to create evidence instead of using it to ponder evidence. Thank God our courts don't work like that.

No problem! You just allow yourself to be coerced and fire anyone in the DOJ who figures out something is wrong, accusing them of being the ones with the ulterior motives.

Or someone like Comey, who has access to NSA data on Trumps campaign, and has a history of leaking shit to NYT through his professor friend.

Nope. Comey released his memos ("leakers" do it anonymously) to get a special counsel, which he got. He can rest easy now knowing Mueller is on the case (like Steve Young handing the ball off to Joe Montana in the 4th quarter for the game winning drive), write his book which is going to be yuge, and put his freakishly long legs and feet up on the coffee table for the rest of his life as a very rich man.
