    Yes and let's not forget how Trump has always denied any sort of relationship with Putin and that was a lie. He played down any sort of relations with Russia and to this day I still wonder why. Why not admitting to it? 

    The only reason to deny it is because he has something to hide.

    Donald Trump Jr. said "we see a lot of money pouring in from Russia", Ivanka vacationed with Putin's girlfriend and Trump himself admitted to knowing him. There's just too many links for it to be a coincidence.

    Oh, but nobody should report on it :lmao:

    I never said that. I said the details shouldn't have been published until they had something concrete. Now everyone can think it's fake when it actually comes from a legitimate source.

    CNN did it the right way. Buzzfeed bit the bullet and caused more harm than good.

  3. Christopher Steele, the MI6 officer who gathered the information in the dossier, has gone into hiding in fear of his life. He has a big successful business and a family. Would he risk losing all that and his reputation if he didn't think the information was true? :think:

    Apparently he had worked with the FBI before because he was also the guy that was hired to uncover the corruption at FIFA during that whole scandal. He had conducted espionage before in Russia on behalf of MI6.

    He was hired by Jeb Bush to dig up oppo research on Trump. After Trump won the nomination, the info he dug up was given to the Democratic party. He gave it to the FBI too, but grew impatient with their investigation (he thought they were covering it up, the FBI said that they didn't want to influence the election), so he handed it over to the media where it circulated for months, but since no one was able to corroborate the claims it was never published only alluded to. Other people in the government had seen it too, which is why back in October Harry Reid accused the FBI of holding back information that would be damaging to Trump, and everyone said Reid was just being a hack trying to make Hillary look better.

    I honestly think there might be some truth to the stuff in the dossier. :think:

    The fact that they released it allowed the world decide for itself that it was basically a fake.

    And therein lies the problem.

    All I'm saying is that they should have waited until they had something truly concrete. The rumors had already been around forever, we were talking about them in the election thread months ago!

    Oh Goodness, why does everyone get distracted by shit ALL THE TIME. Who the fuck cares if it's real or not. He just had a press conference and everyone's just worried about whether some prostitute pissed on him or not. 

    And why in the world would Buzzfeed NOT release an article that basically says "hey, here's the 35 page unverified document that everyone's talking about and that was even sent to the U.S. intelligence team and Trump's team." Why would they NOT report on that? 

    I wouldn't say everyone is just worried about the piss. It's just that it's such an easy thing to joke about so it's everywhere. The real worry is the other stuff that the report claimed.

    They wouldn't release it because it's unsubstantiated. They could have said that the report existed without publishing details before anything is properly vetted. But like I said, I think they have to believe at least some of it can be verified.

    So the Russians started collecting dirt on Trump knowing IN FIVE YEARS he would enter the presidential race, win the primary against all odds, AND have a shot at the presidency against even greater odds, so they could blackmail him into doing what they want. Also in exchange for not leaking the ''piss party'' dirt they also hacked the DNC to help Trump win.

    That's not exactly what the memo says. The Russians didn't put all their eggs in one basket with Trump.

  7. The memos had been circulating with news agencies for a long time but sources and claims were still being investigated so nobody wanted to publish them. I wish Buzzfeed would have waited, but I can't help but feel they have enough to believe that at least some of the things in the memos can substantiated, otherwise they risk their entire reputation like you guys said.

    Trump called CNN fake news and then took a question from Breitbart. What a nightmare :blink:

  8. Carl Bernstein who broke the story (same guy who broke Watergate btw) said that the MI6 investigator brought it to the attention of the FBI in August, way before any of those posts. When McCain gave them the memos the FBI already had part of them.

    CNN has also learned that on December 9, Senator John McCain gave a full copy of the memos -- dated from June through December, 2016 -- to FBI Director James Comey. McCain became aware of the memos from a former British diplomat who had been posted in Moscow. But the FBI had already been given a set of the memos compiled up to August 2016, when the former MI6 agent presented them to an FBI official in Rome, according to national security officials.

    I can believe that 4chan would try something like this, but for them to be able to fool the FBI, CIA, NSA and DNI just by sending a single document is laughable. You're brainwashed.

    I don't know if any of what's in the dossier can be verified conclusively, but I'm going to wait and see.

    Some of the memos were circulating as far back as last summer. What has changed since then is that US intelligence agencies have now checked out the former British intelligence operative and his vast network throughout Europe and find him and his sources to be credible enough to include some of the information in the presentations to the President and President-elect a few days ago.

    I've felt for a long time now that the hackers and leakers that released all that shit on Clinton withheld all the shit they found on Trump until after the elections. Like, it was their plan all along to watch the U.S. implode :lmao:

    It's actually worse than that. The hackers were WORKING for Trump and he had DNC moles! 

    Read the reports. They're insane. Trump is LIVID

     

  10. Are you guys reading the new info that just came out? Hooooly shit

    According to Source D where s/he had been present, Trump’s (perverted) conduct in Moscow included hiring the presidential suite of the Ritz Carlton Hotel, here he knew President and Mrs Obama (whom he hated) had stayed on one of their official trips to Russia, and defiling the bed where they had slept by employ a number of prostitutes to perform a ‘golden showers’ (urination) show in front of him. The hotel was known to be under FSB control with microphones and concealed cameras in all the main rooms to record anything they wanted to.

    So there is a sex tape after all I'm dead :lmao:

    gays ALWAYS asking for acceptance and NEVER giving it.  always JUDGING - doing exactly what they fear.  the victim becomes the victimizer. 

    ive said it a million and one times - to deaf ears.  even the people we believe to be our 'enemy', we must accept - the evangelists, the catholics, the right wing.  until that day comes, there will ALWAYS be conflict.

    You say it's bad to judge but you sound pretty judgmental to me.

    And, no, there are some views that should never be accepted when they begin to influence the law. If we accept them we allow them to proliferate. Just because someone thinks climate change is a 'hoax' doesn't mean we should be tolerant of their views when it's a threat to our whole planet.

    So according to you, during the civil rights movement, black people should just have accepted that there was a huge chunk of the population that wanted them to be second class citizens? Where would we be then?

    I believe that there are many issues where I can compromise with conservative/right wing America, but I'm not going to accept their views that dehumanize and oppress others when they start to influence the government. Gays may hate evangelicals, but when have we ever tried to pass a law to stop them from worshipping, from marrying, from having free speech?

    I'm not saying everyone who voted for Trump is racist, but trying to act like white Christians are a persecuted minority is laughable.
