I posted this video link so that anyone can see Graham's reaction for themselves. How can it be a "false story"?

I just called the video as I saw it, and said that Graham looked shocked.

Yes Tom. That's what Russian fake news is all about. Your aim is to put the CIA in the worst light through internet forums by manipulating the truth. You were even more blatant with your loaded question about James Clapper.Tom Palven wrote:Straight from Moscow?

2) "Apparatchik" : James Clapper was not a male bureaucrat in the Soviet "apparatus" but an American.
3) "all the secret police" : You forgot on purpose that the FBI, who you claim are "secret police" had nothing to do with Clapper.
4) Clapper was not charged and you forgot to mention why.
What is a loaded question Tom?

Trump himself may very well be bankrupt and both the Russians and the CIA may know it, which would explain a lot of things.
Maybe Edward Snowden can help us out with an answer. I love a mystery.

Re: "I see no evidens"
Well I don't think Trump is bankrupt, but rather not as rich as he pretends. I think the Germans know something about Russian proxy underwriting (security guarantees) for Kushner's borrowing that Kushner could not get elsewhere. Trump may be part of a similar Russian lure, through Germany, but I don't know. I think the Germans are being careful as anything they feed to the USA may open up a can of worms to other areas of research the Germans are working on, for Germany's benefit.Tom Palven wrote:Trump himself may very well be bankrupt and both the Russians and the CIA may know it, which would explain a lot of things.

There will have to be a special place in Hell for these asswads who stand there and look us straight in the face and say that tax cuts for the rich will bring more jobs.
So stupid on 15 different levels.............and yet it sells. I guess: just say the word "jobs" and the gullible go into a coma.
We could try it out: "Hey America..........hitting yourself in the head with a hammer this next round of voting will create 100's of thousands of good new jobs for America." What are the odds?

Around 20% of the Oz population are descended from transported convicts, my great x3 grandmother (Irish, I hasten to add) amongst them.

I would translate "Привет, как дела?" more as "Hi, how are things?".
What Moore said in this clip is "Здравствуйте, как вы поживаете сегодня?" which translates to "Hello, how are you doing today?".

Senatorz Grassley and Graham are a big part uv the GoP project to cover up Trumps treezon. They apparently went too far last week wen they sent a recommendation to the Justis Department to charj Cristofer Steele with a crime for creating The Dossier expozing the Russian election interferens and Trumps involvment. (I dont no how they expected that to work, kuz Mr. Steele iz not an American sitizen) Diane Fienstien, the ranking Dem on the Senate Judical committee had enuff and released the transcript to the media.

Re: "I see no evidens"
This is just interesting, but not significant. Sergey Naryshkin, the director of the Russian Foreign Intelligence agency, the SVR, has been in the USA meeting with Mike Pompeo, director of the CIA.
http://tass.com/politics/987568
Sergey Naryshkin knows how to control media from when he ran Russia One television network. He is the person who directed the Russian intervention in the USA elections in co-ordination with Russian GRU signals intelligence.
I actually do believe they are only discussing terrorism, although it must be very tempting for the USA to simply say to Naryshkin, concerning political interference, "Can you please stop doing that".
In the 1960s, the Russians tried to outweigh British Mi5 surveillance, in London by sending hundreds of Russian diplomats to London. The director of Mi5 telephoned the Russian ambassador and said "Can you please stop doing that" and the Russians complied. Truth is stranger than fiction.
(Matter of Trust: MI5, 1945-72 (1982) / Nigel West / Littlehampton Book Services Ltd)
At some point the Russian economy is going to be large enough to require the re opening of stable international markets, without sanctions. The Russians will suddenly become nice and actually stop doing this.

Re: "I see no evidens"
This is a bit complex. When the USSR was dissolving some senior public servants, undervalued state assets and then bought them as capitalists and made enormous profits which they took overseas. (The football club oligarchs). Other public servants, did the same but kept the businesses going in Russia, although they were extremely rich. (Putin's oligarch group). Others simply stole money and laundered it through smaller countries like Fiji, Monaco and places where the old KGB had small money laundering facilities.JO 753 wrote:I hope that at sum point Russia gets the money back from Putin and hiz gang uv oligarks. Keeping that from happening iz wut this iz all about.
Putin's policy has been to regain all the assets taken overseas and punish those overseas oligarchs. This is very popular in Russia.
To be frank, destabilising the USA elections is a minor concern to the Russian Federation's SVR/FSB. compared to the resources they apply to hunting down overseas oligarchs.
I'm not saying this is a good or bad thing. I'm just trying to explain Russian mentality. The Russians really really really hate traitors. They don't care if you are a good or bad Russian if you remain Russian.
