Most, if not all, of these anti-Trumper's are just morons. Some are paid protesters, others are OFA volunteers (Obama's organization). All are to be disregarded. No matter how much truth emerges on the lack of evidence of "collusion" by the Trump team, and the ties the Democrats have to this "Russian lawyer" and the Soros funded Fusion GPS, they continue to ignore it, and return to beating the same drum. They are digging their own grave. Let them do it.
Yep. The REAL question is why did Loretta Lynch and the Obama DOJ let a Russian operative into the US without a visa to lobby Congress, the State Department and Trump Jr for the repeal of the Magnitsky Act, which imposed sanctions on Russia?
Quote:
"Just five days after meeting in June 2016 at Trump Tower with Trump Jr., Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner and then-Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, Moscow attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya showed up in Washington in the front row of a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing on Russia policy, video footage of the hearing shows.
She also engaged in a pro-Russia lobbying campaign and attended an event at the Newseum in Washington, D.C., where Russian supporters showed a movie that challenged the underpinnings of the U.S. human rights law known as the Magnitsky Act, which Russian President Vladimir Putin has reviled and tried to reverse.
The Magnitsky Act imposed financial and other sanctions on Russia for alleged human rights violations connected to the death of a Russian lawyer who claimed to uncover fraud during Putin's reign. Russia retaliated after the law was passed in 2012 by suspending Americans' ability to adopt Russian children.
At least five congressional staffers and State Department officials attended that movie showing, according to a Foreign Agent Registration Act complaint filed with the Justice Department about Veselnitskaya’s efforts.
...in an interview with NBC News earlier this week, Veselnitskaya acknowledged her contacts with Trump Jr. and in Washington were part of a lobbying campaign to get members of Congress and American political figures to see "the real circumstances behind the Magnitsky Act.”
This is going to get very ugly for Obama, Lynch, and the left, and they have no one but themselves to blame for trying to push a narrative to smear the Trumps, when THEY themselves are actually the ones who committed crimes.
In all likelihood, yes. The Magnitsky act is what is keeping Russia from completing a half-trillion-dollar oil deal that they desparately need to hold their economy together. That is why Tillerson was brought on board as SOS. It is not in the least uncommon to grant a visa to a lobbyist from any country. The U.S. is a country of laws, and foreign lawyers are often used as lobbyists because they are able to understand the legal system better.
Does this answer your question?
No. She was turned down for a visa and Loretta Lynch and the Obama DOJ admitted her to the US without a visa, anyway.
Additionally, a Foreign Agent Registration Act complaint was filed with the Justice Department about Veselnitskaya’s lobbying efforts.
"All that right-wing media needs to do is just throw out some things that appear to be substantive that have some stray facts that the cult will hang on to, and the cult will do everything else themselves,"
Anything to try and convince themselves their 'dear leader' wasn't caught lying 'bigly'.
Lol. The alt right propaganda machine. Goebbels would be so proud.
All part of a nefarious plot to make sure, well I'm not sure what their end game was. But it was genius! And very effective too! I think...
It was "very effective" for Obama and Lynch to get caught at being complicit in violating US FARA Law? They let a Russian operative into the US without a visa, as she had been denied one, to lobby for the repeal of the Magnitsky Act on behalf of Putin, Russia, and Russian investors.
That the Russians do not providecampaign intelligence for free may or may not be true, but it is irrelevant in either case since no campaign intelligence was provided.
The meeting, agreed to by Trump Jr. because he hoped to receive intelligence on the Hillary campaign, was a bait and switch.
The lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, was really here to lobby for repeal of the Magnitsky Act.
How she got here is a story with a lot of unanswered questions.
In late 2015, she was refused a visa to enter the United States, but then issued a special waiver to enter the US by, then, AG Lynch.
"All of this without a visa! Not to mention Veselnitskaya didn’t file a FARA (Foreign Agents Registration Act) document before acting as a lobbyist for a foreign entity, as required by law. Neither, apparently, did Dellums. Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) wrote a fascinating letter Tuesday to Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson asking them to please find out what in the hell Veselnitskaya was doing in this country last June.

The Hillary revelations were damning. She cheated in the debates and colluded with the DNC to steal the nomination. You guys keep screaming about interference but I have yet to hear a liberal say anything negative about what was uncovered. You talk about the Trump cultists and koolaid drinkers but you're the same.
There are posts here that despise the Trump supporters for defending anything he does. I get it. You can't defend him at every turn. But you refuse to acknowledge that Hillary did anything wrong. You're the same as the die hard Trump people.
I am progressive and a lifelong Democrat who ended his affiliation last election and I and many, many others, especially Sander supporters, who recognize that both parties are totally corrupt, have been very vocal about how the Billionaire Oligarchy had taken over the two parties, the government, the Fed Reserve (most important), and national media.
My own feeling is that those frustrated with the loss of sovereignty should acknowledge the situation as it exists in both parties and form new parties at the grass roots. Elections will still be stolen, but it is time to stop helping the Billionaires and to start helping ourselves.

That's just it, The Cult act as if biased reporting is specific to left leaning media. They act as if fake news never comes from conservative sources and that's nonsense.
