Fortunately -- just this week -- there was a CBS 60 Minutes interview with Reality Winner, an NSA employee, who explained why she leaked to the media proof that Russia interfered with the 2016 election in support of Trump -- exposing the White House cover-up. She did this because Trump was denying this occurred despite obvious proof in the intercepts and other information. We should never allow foreign countries to interfere with our elections.

gwb-trading, is that true? Or did you see it on CNN ? Those corrupt media corporations just pay, bribe, and even blackmail these folks to say what they want to hear so that they can use it in their smear campaigns, ordered & paid by an opponent... like the DNC... Are you really so naive not to understand this?
Feel free to watch the entire CBS 60 Minutes interview or read the transcript at the link -- it might be an educational experience for you.
No, thx, not today, am too busy with more important stuff... But don't you see the double-standard used here by these libtards? What about Assange?...
Actually what I stated at the time -- was that Michael Flynn or other new administration officials meeting with the Russian ambassador (or other officials from foreign nations) during the transition period between the election and the inauguration day is in no way unusual and has been done throughout U.S. history. These type of meetings in no way violated the law -- unlike what others contended. What Flynn got in trouble for was lying to the FBI about the meetings - although the law enforcement actions in this case were very questionable IMO. Trump eventually pardoned Flynn. The pardon brings an end to a long-running legal odyssey for Flynn, who was the only member of the Trump administration to be charged as part of special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation. Flynn pleaded guilty in 2017 to lying to the FBI about his contacts with the Russian ambassador and then cooperated extensively with prosecutors. But he ultimately reversed course and accused the government of trying to frame him. Flynn went so far as to withdraw his first plea of guilty and substitute a second plea of not guilty, even though he'd acknowledged the underlying conduct that was against the law and been close to receiving a sentence. Once the full Mueller report came out -- I did not question the indictments against Manafort, Stone, etc. I still however still think the indictment of Flynn was very questionable. I will note that Flynn's activities since being released including his refusal to support peacefully transition of power and the recent news of his recent citation for taking unauthorized foreign payments -- make it clear he is not fit to serve in a leadership position. However the entire "Trump Russian" narrative early in his administration was built up around that Flynn met with Russian officials prior to the inauguration and therefore the narrative stated that Trump was colluding with the Russians. Until the Mueller report came out there was little evidence of an connection between Trump associates and Russia. And when the Mueller report came out -- none of the indicted were Trump administration officials (note Flynn cooperated prior the report).
Nice revisionism; The influence warning were made by Obama and Clinton way before any of this. Hell, Obama went to McConnell to do something about it but he's Moscow Mitch so that went nowhere. You're omitting the Popodopalous disclosures that triggered much of this, but yes, Sally Yates pointing to impropriety had more than enough merit.
