101 Russian Contacts

From Trumpski's mantra--No Collusion, No Collusion, No Collusion to 101 Russian contacts between Trump's 2016 campaign and administration members is a mind-boggling leap. It's difficult to keep the numerous events, people and timelines involved straight. Fortunately The Moscow Project has been doing just that assembling an overview of the disaster we've been watching/hearing/reading. In order to get a sense of the size and overlapping relationships, the Moscow Project offers an interactive map showing the contacts and the players. Lots of good information at the site and an easy way to familiarize or review the history of a portion of the conspiracy.

Interesting, too, that the major portion of these contacts were made by Don Jr. and Jared Kushner. The 'boys' are in deep, deep trouble.

And people are starting to 'wake up.' I was listening to a round table discussion the other day and the Republican strategist (can't recall the woman's name) who normally defends the Administration on everything was 'oddly' circumspect and sedate in her comments. Republicans know what's coming and what's spending across the table. None of it's good.

Lots of heads are going to roll.

But you have to wonder how many other campaigns, Administrations have had this kind of direct contact with Russian players and oligarchs, made excuses for Putin's excesses or accepted Russian funds and assistance through various channels?

None that I'm aware of and with good reason. It's illegal and compromises the security of the United States.

Coincidence my ass!
