"Five days ago, the Tennessee Democratic Party stated emphatically that in 2012 Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) met with Alexander Torshin, a now-sanctioned Russian official at the heart of Russia’s efforts to infiltrate the National Rifle Association (NRA).

Blackburn, who is currently running for Tennessee’s open Senate seat, has dodged questions about such a meeting since — but has not yet issued a denial on the topic.

Blackburn’s alleged role in the efforts of both Torshin and accused Russian agent Maria Butina to access high-ranking officials within the NRA — and the Republican Party more broadly — may not have simply ended with a meeting in 2012. After all, Kline Preston, a Nashville-based lawyer who ThinkProgress reported was Blackburn’s former campaign finance chairman and the former head of Marsha Blackburn for Congress, Inc., was the one who first introduced Torshin to NRA leadership. (Torshin has been accused by Spanish authorities of massive money laundering and mafia ties.)

Preston began working with Blackburn as early as 2003 and, according to his website, continued working for Marsha Blackburn for Congress, Inc. through at least 2014, two years after her alleged meeting with Torshin took place."...(more)

It's funny hearing Republicans call anyone elitist, when the Republican Party is, by definition, exactly that. How's come nobody calls them up on this Himalaya of Horseshit?

6. The FBI is "elitist "?

Well no fucking shit! It’s the preeminent investigative body in the world! Of course it’s elitist.

What a nimrod.

Why is it that so many use that word as if it’s an insult? What the fuck is wrong with being elite?

[Dirty Socialist]

7. Elite and elitist are not the same thing n/m

9. it appears the republicans are dead-set on destroying the Department of Justice.

They are accusing the Obama administration of politicizing the DOJ and going after trump.

A page directly out trump's playbook. Accuse your opponent of the very thing you are doing.
