Which doesn't mean there is no evidence. Schiff already said he's seen more than circumstantial evidence.

As usual, the OP and Trump cult are misrepresenting what Schiff has said. Funny how they take Schiff's supposed word if it somehow vindicates their messiah, but ignore him when he says there is more than circumstantial evidence.

She was never declared innocent.


Have yet to see one shred of evidence about Trump and Russia.

This is much more complicated with all the Russian connections.
Can you please list all of those connections?

Selling influence: the Chicago way.
Did you not read Schiff's direct quote?

Stop with the nonsense with the uranium deal. Eight other agencies signed of on it and there is no license to export uranium from US mines.

Of course:


All of Donald Trump’s Ties to Russia and Putin, in 7 Charts - POLITICO Magazine


If you don't feel like reading the article, some highlight connections are Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, former Secretary of Defense Mike Flynn, Attorney General Jeff Sessions, former Campaign Manager Paul Manafort, Trump Political Advisor Carter Page, son in law Jared Kushner, and son Donald Trump Jr.


No, not a lot of close connections at all.

How many Benghazi investigations were there? Did they span more than 8 months? I don't remember you in here saying it had been long enough and the GOP should hang it up. Maybe I missed it?





2nd are you talking about the FBI investigation or the Congressional investigation?

Not one of you seem to understand the difference.

Connection: a relationship in which a person, thing, or idea is linked or associated with something else.

Collusion:
secret or illegal cooperation or conspiracy, especially in order to cheat or deceive others.



The investigations going are to determine whether there was collusion going on between Russia and the Trump campaign.

If you think there is no connection and no evidence that there are any connections between Russia and the Trump campaign, you must be going around with your eyes closed and your fingers in your ears.

Whether there is collusion or not is still undetermined but the list of connections is as long as your arm.

This is a good point. There are absolutely connections between the Trump team & Russia. There are connections between team Hillary & Russia. Between Sanders, Stein, Obama, W, Bill, George HW, and on and on. Obviously, every major politician since the fall of the USSR has connections to Russia, that's not crime, nor is it unique.

It's the question of collusion that is the issue. We're now eight months into an investigation that has every alphabet agency headed by an Obama appointee, every spy, paid foreign spies, the mainstream media & foreign backed political opposition activists all turning over every rock & tapping every phone they can find, yet so far there's nothing. What's becoming clear is that the point of this investigation has always been about trying to discredit Trump & stage a coup d'etat. There is no finish line. There will never come a day when the D's say "Well, we were wrong.". There will only be extensions of "We still don't know everything" & "Of what we know so far". Time to sh*t of get off the pot, on this investigation so our POTUS can get to the business of running the country.

Well said!
At this point the ONLY new information about the collusion accusations is floating around on places such as this and on "opinion" shows. In other words there is NO new information on this subject.

Where there IS new information is the "spying" story which at this moment is eclipsing the collusion story.
Now, we can regurgitate the collusion story adding in more random thoughts or random opinions but what's the point?

THERE IS NO NEW INFORMATION.
