    Careful how you answer those questions Donny. There's going to be a number of folks dotting your Is and crossing your Ts, just to be sure. Hoepfully, you'll be under oath this time.

    Between the lines: Mueller, whose investigation did not find a conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia, did not indict Trump Jr., despite speculation that he would.

    • Unlike many congressional investigations in the Trump era, the Senate Intelligence probe — led by Republican chairman Richard Burr and Democratic vice chair Mark Warner — has been largely bipartisan.
    • The fact that they're subpoenaing Trump Jr. is a strong signal that he declined a request to appear before the committee again.

    The backstory: Trump Jr. testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee in September 2017 that he was only "peripherally aware" of proposed plans for the Moscow project. His testimony was released. He testified for a total of more than 25 hours with three different committees, per a source familiar with the situation.

    • In an interview with Fox News’ Laura Ingraham in January 2019, Trump Jr. downplayed his knowledge of the discussions about a possible Trump Tower in Moscow, saying that the project was a creation of President Trump's former attorney Michael Cohen: "We don't know anything about it. Ultimately, it was Michael Cohen essentially trying to get a deal done."

    What we know: Cohen claimed in his testimony before the House Oversight Committee in February that Trump Jr. was more aware of the project than that. During the 2016 presidential campaign, Cohen testified, he briefed Trump Jr. and Ivanka Trump about the proposed Trump Tower Moscow project about 10 times.

    Worth noting: Cohen pleaded guilty in November to lying to Congress. He reported to prison on Monday to serve out his three-year prison sentence.

    The truth rarely comes out in a torrent  or a flood but rather in dribs and drabs. The repub establishment loathes Team Trump Treason and his Klan. It’s just a matter of time despite Mitchy Baby’s attempts to obfuscate and cover up.

    I doubt they’re trying to be heroes by abandoning Team Trump Treason as some of them are in deep red Team Trump Treason states. However, it will become a campaign issue where they’ll be portrayed as more loyal to Team Trump Treason rather than the American institution, ideals and values they have the pleasure and privilege of serving, particularly in Senate races. Establishment repubs are fed up and it’s tough to be “law and order” when 400 + AGs say Team Trump Treason would be arrested if not for being POTUS. Oh, I can’t wait to hear how the evangelicals defend Liberty U’s porn star wannabe.

    Right from the get-go, the relationship between Trump and the GOP has seemed a convenient alliance for both, and it makes sense that when that relationship became one-sided, it’d be severed and the more powerful of the two would exploit the situation for their own benefit. You could be right that this is the start.

    I don't agree.  I think being in the majority is more important to them.  If they damage Trump, it suppresses turnout which affects the majority.  Power is always the catalyst and they have it now in the Senate.

    There was a time when the GOP needed trump more than he needed them.

    GOP thinks this is their opportunity to regain control of their party.

    I’m sure Team Trump Treason will stand shoulder to shoulder with Putin on the ritz as he addresses the nation on the 4th of July from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. What a week that’ll be!!!

    Get ready for the bodies to start piling up. Team Trump Treason will have blood on his hands. What do you think he and Putin on the ritz discussed when no one else was present?

    Russia's manipulation of Twitter was far vaster than believed

    By TIM STARKS

     

    06/05/2019 06:00 AM EDT

    Russia's infamous troll farm conducted a campaign on Twitter before the 2016 elections that was larger, more coordinated and more effective than previously known, research from cybersecurity firm Symantec out Wednesday concluded.

    The Internet Research Agency campaign may not only have had more sway — reaching large numbers of real users — than previously thought, it also demonstrated ample patience and might have generated income for some of the phony accounts, Symantec found.

    How does twitter/Facebook keep people from voting if they really want to? 

    Sure they manipulated. It’s kinda sad so many are so easily manipulated. But im not buying the excuse that Russia let me from voting. 

    Now - because they tried to manipulate our election, the US needs to actually take action. Failure to do so is failure to protect the constitution and the people of the USA.

    It kept some from voting and influenced how some voted. Look no further than posts on this forum as to how easily people can be duped or believe something to be when in fact, it’s a far cry from reality. Putin on the ritz may not have prevented you from voting but he may have prevented others and I agree, it’s sad some are so easily influenced but then again, Team Trump Treason, “loves the uneducated,” and there’s a reason why and it’s not benevolence or charity.
