    Does it call for a dis-qualification?

    Is a Republican admitting there was meddling in our election? Great Googly-moogly!

    Wow, after a year plus, of claiming that there was NO interference in our elections, that it was just an excuse for Hillary losing. And in spite of BOTH Trump and Putin claiming there was no Russian interference.

    Now we get another six months of Lisa claiming there was NO collusion — until there are enough indictments where Trump Disciples will admit there was collusion.

    Meanwhile, the obstruction and illegal money laundering investigation grinds on.

    And the Ret-Conning of history continues. When Cadet Bone Spurs says “I never said they didn’t meddle” the servants must go forth and claim that was what they always said.

    Yes Lisa. The Russians did everything to get your hero elected. And Trump has nothing bad to say about his buddy Vlad. Trump still thinks his Emperor (Putin) still has his clothes on.

    Lisa, it looks like Gates is going to testify against Manafort. The next question: will Manafort flip? And what story would he have to tell?

    Indictment of Jared Kushner next. Kushner – a year of handling the highest classified intelligence in the entire American government – made more requests for classified intelligence than any other official – dozens of private meetings with Russian entities – and he has NO security clearance!!!

    ^ While it may be true that half the White House crew has no security clearance and all of them keep classified documents on their private computer servers, the fact remains that Hillary had THREE such documents on hers which made her a poor choice of a candidate.

    Special counsel Robert Mueller has filed a new charge against an attorney — the son-in-law of a Ukranian-Russian oligarch named in the controversial Donald Trump dossier — who is accused of lying to investigators in the Russia investigation.

    Alex Van Der Zwaan was charged with making false statements about his communications with former Trump campaign aide Rick Gates, according to a court document obtained by NBC News. He is expected to plead guilty Tuesday afternoon.

    We don’t need the Russians to organize anti-Trump rallies, the majority will do it by themselves led by the kids.

    The Republican president acts like a child so the children have to be the adults.

    And a little child shall lead them.

    This has to be stirring up some stuff in Russia. Can you imagine what the oligarchs are saying to Putin? Their money has been frozen in foreign countries, they have been denied access to the international banking system, they have “red warrants” which keep them from traveling to the south of France with their Mistress, and now their kids are going to the slammer. You would almost think Mueller is trying to get Putin killed.

    Just so that you are following:

    Betsy deVos is the Secretary of Education

    Sister of Eric Prince of Blackwater Family

    Major owners of Spectrum Health

    Spectrum Health Servers connected to Alfa Bank servers

    Alfa Bank partially owned by Russian Oligarch

    Whose son in law just got charged by Mueller!

    Mueller is taking them all down.

    The Russian’s pants are down – his meddling has been exposed. Now over to the US team – let us just see whose pants are not on fire about helping them meddle.

    Gates must be squealing like a pig. He hasn’t even entered his plea yet and he has already given Mueller 1) Extra bank fraud charge for Paul Manafort. 2) Today’s indictment of Alex van der Zwaan. Trump must be terrified.

    There goes Dag, obscuring the truth again.

    Documents that are not marked with any classification may be exchanged.

    Documents classified as confidential are the lowest classification. My first job, I got a Confidential clearance by showing ID and birth certificate.

    But on to the scurrilous claims of Dag. First Neocon is correct.

    James Comey testified before the House Oversight Committee on July 7, and State Department spokesman John Kirby, who addressed these emails at press briefings on July 6 and 7:

    Comey said three emails had “portion markings” on them indicating that they were classified, but they were not properly marked and therefore could have been missed by Clinton. He said the emails were marked as classified with the letter “C” in the body of the email.Kirby said the State Department believes that at least two of the emails were mistakenly marked as confidential. He could not speak to the third email, saying ​the department didn’t have​ “all of the records and documents that the FBI used in their investigation.”Comey told the committee he is “highly confident” that FBI investigators consulted with the State Department about the marked emails. But he said he did not know that the department believes that any of them were marked in error.

    If the rest of the emails have no classification markings, it becomes subjective as to whether they contain classified information. Origin also matters.

    Comey was correct to lambast Clinton (as head of the State Department) for the sloppiness exhibited by those in the State Department who should done classification. However, he found no evidence to support the fright wing claims of criminal negligence by anyone. This is usually the case with security problems. Deliberate evasion of security regulations will get you in very hot water, but Security people know they are dealing with fallible humans. They may hammer you, but it is to make you pay attention and not make dumb mistakes.

    We must be getting very close to the 2018 midterm elections. I haven’t seen this many alt right trolls since the 2016 elections. They are trying very hard to be as divisive as they can be and trying to drive this room into becoming a verbal dueling area by throwing out ridiculous premises of about how politics Works in this country. I would say ostracism would be a good method of dealing with them. Especially since no matter how hard you argue you cannot convince a stupid man or woman to change their beliefs while they argue divisively and earn a paycheck by doing so. If we are not responding to them will they still get paid?????

    Perhaps, with these trolling posts, we are dealing with the St. Petersburg Troll Farm (and their bots), so it really isn’t worth our time to try to “change their minds” since they are not posting here with honest intent of real discussion. I think I will forego answering such posts and restrict my comments to points of relevance for the subject at hand that may be of interest to honest participants on Gocomics.
