https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/12/11/michael-flynns-guilty-plea-sends-donald-trumps-lawyers-scrambling

Shortly after the news broke, Comey, referring to the Biblical Book of Amos, tweeted, “But justice roll down like waters and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.”

actually it was on instagram FAKE NEWS

also that's totally a piss tape reference right

he cross-posted to twitter /factcheckingcuz

It’s a pretty corny and self-aggrandizing tweetagram wherever it was posted.

That deal [Trump Tower Moscow] never came to fruition, but the intent expressed on both sides is deeply troubling.

vlad is maybe waiting on don to deliver rosneft from sanctions, jeff

picture yourself at the great gates of kiev, an exhibition of baba yaga huts

rolling trump-russian collusion

let's hear it for the "something" voters

pretty sure even I did not vote "nothing"

i bleeve everyone knew about his money laundering dating back to the '80s

he's still president last time i checked

Also note - unlike the NYT reporters, who tweeted their correction - @joshtpm never bothered to note the central claim of his viral tweet about Manafort & Deripaska was retracted. It wouldn't have mattered - retrations are ignored - but it's good to pretend to care about accuracy pic.twitter.com/Wr7T9lPwCj

Just a reminder that Greenwald himself took information from Russian intelligence to spread no-stories about Hillary.

get adopted by the Clintons, boy

Pathetic stuff from GG, thanks for sharing, Morbz.

i'm sure that factual error was not reported here, so i was compelled

The original story was hardly reported here...

no collusion! build the wall!!

Weird how Glenn clings to every minor correction to the story he’s been insanely wrong about for two years.

Well, yeah. The underlying point is that The Intercept got the story catastrophically wrong in 2016, and instead of admitting to having fucked up they've ever so slowly moved the goalposts, while Glenn claims to be a voice of moderation on the issue.

Weird how you guys have what my late papa would call an eternal "hard-on" for GG.

Jealous

Weird how you guys have what my late papa would call an eternal "hard-on" for GG.

given you shared the GG tweet that started this revive even you must know this is ridiculous

at least benghazi had bodies

SB, your posts seem to be based in a senseless contrarianism and knee-jerk cynicism, backed by no discernable position. whyzatso?

lol

sorry *conforms to ilx poster mentality* trump met with six russians while he was shitting and peeing all over himself!!!!!! tax returns !!!

sb is the non-awaited return of libtriggering mra renegade and general edgebore esleeping byag? If so this more clownish iteration is an improvement

stevie, to make it clear, the meaning of "hard-on" there is animus

xp when live cod were shipped to Asia from North America, their flesh ended up gross and mushy from inactivity. In order to keep the cod active, the fisherman started putting catfish in with the cod to nip at their tails and keep them active.

That’s what I’m saying, Bumblebee Guy but dressed as a gadfly

but SB, you post only to the most active threads

anyway sorry please continue to discuss dr morbius retweet from glenn greenwald about trump russia

You are literally the Tubgirl of ILX

Emptywheel seems to think this does a good job of summing up her own suspicions:

Morning epiphany: @emptywheel was right and the whole Carter Page - Man of Mystery - was an elaborate distraction, an illusion used by the magician to make us look for fake conspiracy instead of at the real one. The Russians were clearly onto Steele and fed...(1/14)

tldr It was always about money

this has been more or less what I've always thought.

That seems really plausible. Also it doesn’t require any more evidence than what we know already.

What are Trump’s finances like since becoming president?

That's a pretty good read, and it boils down to "Trump's job was to unlock the house for the thieves."

Who the f knows regarding his finances, but I have a strong suspicion Mueller does.

"And then something unexpected happened. The USIC/USLE made public that Russia had hacked the DNC. Suddenly, team Trump realized the "how" of the help. They panicked... deals were being called off, a frenzy of meetings and discussions were had... (7/14)"

but Trump was publicly asking Russia to get Her Emails

Joeks...

He didn’t understand the significance of that, then. It had to be explained to him.

Life is just a joke for Trump.
