Will Republicans Sanction Russia or Prove Their Treason with Inaction

Oh, and not to mention SYRIA. Russia's ally Syria, where Russian troops are actively deployed, received more than 60 precision guided US Tomahawk cruise missiles in retaliation for a sarin gas attack.

I'm sure Putin was thrilled to hear Trump had decided to deliver major ordnance to his ally, in direct violation of his warning about doing just that. Trump trumped Putin, because Putin did nothing in retaliation. It showed Obama's cowardice to be just that - cowardice. Exactly why Obama never confronted Russia on one single issue. Opting instead to engage in sneaky espionage/sabotage activities and quietly foment coups they laughingly called "regime change"

Victoria Nuland, for instance, under Obama's direct is directly responsible for the coup in Ukraine that led to Poroshenko's installation as President of Ukraine (Nuland and a US ambassador picked him)

But keep pretending Trump hasn't already retaliated against Russia. This isn't the type of incident you use military force over, or something you continue to attack another nation over. It's over and done with. We won't be responding with the force of the US government at this point because the left has turned it erroneously into a criminal matter instead of an intelligence/political matter Therefore, left the courts handle it (isn't that what you wanted? With a special counsel?)

You aren't getting buyers remorse with Robert Mueller are you? Since he cleared Trump of conspiracy and all.....

When a leftist's faux outrage backfires...it is the tastiest form of tears.

the only rage around here is from you.

FOR THE LAST TIME...The Russians were ALREADY sanctioned for their role in the election.

posting lies,,,


Trump administration holds off on new Russia sanctions, despite law

The Trump administration said on Monday it would not immediately impose additional sanctions on Russia, despite a new law designed to punish Moscow’s alleged meddling in the 2016 U.S. election, insisting the measure was already hitting Russian companies.

www.reuters.com...

The sanctions were voted on & approved last year but the derp fuhrer wont initiate them for fear of angering his banker in the Kremlin.

Now we have again been shown how Russia has attacked us & the coward still wont implement them.

This little song effectively summarizes what the OP and the majority of those pushing the "assault Russia" narrative are pushing us towards.

In 2016 you had a bad day, don't crap down our necks and call it "patriotism..." tantrums aren't patriotic.

Creepy video... Catchy, but creepy. Kinda like Hed pe with a deeper guitar.

ADDITIONAL!!!! Do you not read.

www.nytimes.com...

Here is a NYT article....

The US, with Biden stating it, also said there would be covert actions.

Meanwhile, several states reported the “scanning” of their voter databases — which American intelligence agencies also attributed to Russian hackers. But there is no evidence, American officials said, that Russia sought to manipulate votes or voter rolls on Nov. 8. Mr. Obama decided not to issue sanctions earlier for fear of Russian retaliation ahead of Election Day. Some of his aides now believe that was a mistake. But the president made clear before leaving for Hawaii that he planned to respond.

republicans only love rich Americans

My experience is rich people pretend to be poor when they are around poor people.

Like jumping in front of everyone - to show how common you are - to ride the subway?

More like, their offer to help is to 'call someone', or pray for you, kind of thing.

Rich people don't get that way by being generous.

Your responses almost always involve some utterly petty childish retort that serves nothing but their (Russia's) objective...

I'm at the point that regardless the Russian influence, these people in their quest to believe they can remake America into some christofascist authoritarian paradise for their "kin" are just as dangerous as an any Spetsnaz squad.

so finally we get the truth
only took a year

you just hate them anyway

So basically, these indictments are mail and wire fraud ,and various other minimal charges. What does it have to do with Trump collusion? Absolutely nothing but let them keep their fake narrative going.

Just out of curiosity were the 13 individuals and 3 companies indicted shown to have ties to the Russian government? I haven't read the indictments so not really sure and would love some clarity on that.

Fox News anchor Shepard Smith called out President Donald Trump’s “Twitter rampage” during a gripping examination of the commander in chief’s latest meltdown.

“First from the Fox News deck this Monday afternoon, the president spent the weekend defending himself, misrepresenting the truth and attacking others — from his phone in Florida,” Smith observed.

“The president attacked the Justice Department, FBI and his National Security Adviser, H.R. McMaster. He attacked Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA), Democrats and the DNC. He attacked Hillary Clinton, President Obama, the previous Congress and the news media before going after Oprah Winfrey,” Smith listed.

“He did not attack Vladimir Putin or Russia,” Smith reminded. “Nor did he express concerns that the Russians attacked the United States.” “Nor did he pledge in any way to measures in place to stop future attacks,” he continued.

Well I'm glad people are beginning to notice Trumps fear of Putin & all things Russian.

You seem to be unclear as to how our governmental agencies operate. Your question would be best answered by the US Department of Justice (not Republicans) who is responsible for investigating foreign agents conspiring against the United States.

Mueller's indictment is an absolute joke.

Mueller has absolutely zero power to do anything with regards to the Russians which should be your first indicator this is nothing but a red herring. Stop being willfully ignorant and place aside your ego and learn how our government functions.

Laughable.

Ready to admit I was right about the Mueller probe?

www.msn.com...

Van Der Zwaan allegedly lied about his last communications with Gates and deleted emails requested by the special counsel's office, according to the indictment.
The new charges come as Gates is reportedly nearing a plea deal with Mueller, and will testify against former Trump campaign head Paul Manafort.

NOTE HOW THESE INDICTMENTS DO NOT EVEN MENTION TRUMP, unlike the 16 Russian/companies. He's not being charged. He won't be impeached. He will serve the next 3-7 years as YOUR and my PRESIDENT. Get used to it.

a reply to: aethertek


Smith is a beta male. What he says doesn't hold any water.

Type-Alpha's are running the party again. Establishment stooges like Shep. Smith (who should lose their job at Fox in 3, 2, 1...) don't deserve to even speak about this POTUS, let alone serve in a position to feed the public news.

No more establishment influence. No more foreign influence.

Oh, and have a look at this link... Remember when I told you Trump was walking away from the Russia/conspiracy allegations? He did exactly that.

Van Der Zwaan allegedly lied about his last communications with Gates and deleted emails requested by the special counsel's office, according to the indictment.
The new charges come as Gates is reportedly nearing a plea deal with Mueller, and will testify against former Trump campaign head Paul Manafort.

Still holding out for some secret/unexpected indictment, eh? When your enemy makes a mistake, never correct him. But hey, I suppose Mueller just decided to take a break from Trump and go after Manafort for the 11th time (good for him). I bet this is eating you and silly up though.

She'd rather make a bunch of ignorant and patently false statements to disrupt/distract/deceive/degrade.

She refuses to accept that her delusion about Trump/Russia was all a Democrat lie. How much do you want to bet they still vote for Schiff-hole and Skeletor Pelosi though. The ones who lied to them. While maintaining their cult-like support for that [DNC party logo] face hillary.

another Mueller indictment.

Alex Van Der Zwaan he lied to the FBI and covered up evidence.

He's the son-in-law of a Russian Oligarch and close to manafort.

Well jokes on you then tovarish, because we're enjoying watching Mueller professionally roll up all the low hanging scum, as he works his way up the rotten food chain.

I just love how those without the required intellect to think & extrapolate are running about the net shouting "see it's not about tRump".

These indictments even the Russian ones are very much about tRump.

Since the Russian indictments none of the scared weak republican scum who took that dirty money can call for the end of the investigation or the firing of Mueller now.
HA HA!!

That & the level of detail he released in the indictments lets all the scum sucking pukes in the republican hierarchy know what level of conspiracy & corruption evidence Mueller has against them.

Have you noticed all the republicans who either retired or have announced their retirement this year & last?

a reply to: aethertek


Perhaps

We will see though.

It doesn't really matter, you're forgetting the President has full power to pardon any person for "crimes" against the United States. If this appears to be encroaching on "witch hunt" territory, Trump can unilaterally without warning pardon any/all involved.

Gotta love Executive authority, eh? At least Trump isn't pardoning a bunch of dopers and criminals, like Obama: www.justice.gov...

Since the Russian indictments none of the scared weak republican scum who took that dirty money can call for the end of the investigation or the firing of Mueller now.

As opposed to Clinton's "clean" money....? Since the indictments, no one has had a REASON to call for the end of the investigation. Now that Trump is free and clear, I couldn't care less if he keeps investigating for the next decade (minus the waste of tax dollars). But we waste tax dollars all day-every day, so who cares?

So much for the rule of law in America, now much like Russia & any other ####hole country the rules & laws don't apply to those who would be king or his secret selling son in law.

People are beginning to question?
Eventually more & more will come to realize the derp fuhrer wears no clothes.

ABC News’ Jon Karl Hammers Sanders Over Trump’s Weekend Tweets: ‘He Hasn’t Even Called Out Putin!’

Sanders attempted to note that the interference began under the Obama administration and said that there will be consequences under the Trump administration, Karl appeared to have enough.

“He hasn’t even called out Putin!” Karl exclaimed.

“He criticized Obama, the FBI and didn’t even criticize Vladimir Putin.”

www.mediaite.com...

LOL!!! "but but Obama"

Seriously how pathetic & ignorant her comments are, does she really think people will believe this BS.

"Consequences" like what not enacting the sanctions already approved by bi-partisan vote.

These people have NO shame they will blatantly repeat a lie right to Americas face.

Hang on, 'some dude' by virtue of being Donald's son in law, is on a free rein ?

.. Kushner has been operating under a temporary clearance for the past year while the Federal Bureau of Investigation conducts a background investigation.

Under an order issued on Friday by White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, Kushner will lose the temporary clearance in less than a week.

U.S. President Donald Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, can continue in his role as a senior White House adviser even if he does not obtain a security clearance, the White House said on Tuesday.

White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders told reporters that Kushner will continue the work he has been doing the past year whether he gets a full security clearance or not. He has been trying to get the Israelis and Palestinians back to the negotiating table.

Jeeebus, little wonder that the isreali/palestinian agreement is dead in the water
What with a US light-weight, deatbeat, numbnuts at the helm

Probably little to no scope for real estate investment
with little, to none (no), money coming in for Kushner Corp...
Which explains everything

Thoroughly inept, clueless and venal
perfectly sums up the Trump administration
