[President Trump's trip – is he doing it well, or is his direct and undiplomatic manner going to make things worse for the US when he returns. And it looks like the Ugly Fat Kid needs another nudge. gjr]

WASHINGTON, D.C.—After being summoned to a meeting with President Trump in a secret chamber twelve floors beneath the White House, Senator Ben Sasse optimistically assumed the president simply wanted to hear some of his concerns and see whether they could cooperate on common political goals.
“When you hear the Christian hymn ‘Make America Great Again,’ bow before the statue,” one of the Republican goons growled in Sasse’s ear. “Almost everyone else in the Party has bowed. What’s the harm? Everyone’s doing it. I would hate for that nice suit to get… extra crispy.”

Not to mention arming ISIS in Libya. Talk about blackmail material. Putin got her teats in a wringer and has everything he needs to get her on all fours and bark like a dog.
We sure dodged a bullet with that one. Wasn’t Meuller on the Uranium One Deal as well as dropping the 6 year investigation into Hezbollah dealing all those drugs and laundering money through Friends of Bill and Foundation partners and connected banks? Or was that ISIS and Comey? I get them all confused. Oh, it was Iran.
Anyway, Punchy is taking it all in stride. Oh please, call me a Putin Cuddler again and again. Want to talk about how sad you feel.

The United States “absolutely” has carried out such election influence operations historically, he said, “and I hope we keep doing it.”

Really really good question. Assuming that Trump runs the 17 intelligence agencies and the DOJ (not clear really), I’ll propose a three-way trade.
Based on this:

(remember when the crack KVMR news crew covered something besides Trump? me neither)
I’m thinking…..
. The US gets the 12 Russian military officers doing their duty.
. The Russians get a military base
. The Libyans get the Hillary Clinton state department officials who saw to it that the Libyan head of state was sodomized to death with a broom handle. God knows how many deaths resulted from that.
See? Everyone gets something. The Art of the Deal.

Punchy, we have no extradition treaties with Russia, countries that have extradition treaties with Russia can’t use them to extradite Russian citizens and it’s a good bet all 12 of the Russian military intelligence officers are Russian citizens with hefty security clearances.
Under international law, what can Trump do, Punch?
We’d better hope none of the 12 call our justice department’s bluff and call for a speedy trial (in absentia?)… and the first thing we’d have to do is turn over all the evidence against them.

Well, certainly not to the same extent as the Mexican, Israeli, and Arab governments do. They just don’t have the skin in the game to the same extent.
Given all the money both the Russian oligarchs and .gov shoved into that insatiable Clinton grifter maw, it’s surprising that they would have tried to help Trump.
I guess if nothing else that avoiding a Clinton-led invasion of Syria (which is pretty much next door to the Russkies) might have been enough reason to dump a few 10’s of thousands of bucks into Facebook and send a few marching order to RT/Sputnik.
The fact that we got to learn about awesome evil-doings by the DNC, etc. was just icing on the cake. For all I know, ending up with a President who isn’t a war-monger might have saved the world.

Just imagine how much research has been done by The Resistance in the last three years. The amount of money spent on researchers, detectives, paying off friends, inventing stuff from whole cloth, just to get anything at all on Trump has to be breathtaking. It’s probably a couple of orders of magnitude more than the Russians bother to spend.
I’m absolutely serious here. Trump is probably the most highly vetted politician in US history.
