I won't be watching 'my' Team without a Name. (I rarely did, tho daughter has season tickets.)

AND, gotta watch it LATER, as favorite Lewis is on PBS now, and NOT rerunning.

I'd say in the current climate that makes what he has to say worth listening to.

It's not like he's Omarosa.

And why he acts in Russia’s interest and not our country’s

If you can get a video, that would be great. What's the PBS Mystery Favorite? I think I might start watching more of those and paying less attention to politics. I am kind of losing my mind lately.

I will have to check it out. That is exactly the kind of thing I am in the mood for. I am a huge fan of British Mysteries. They are so transporting and completely make me feel like I am living in a different world. Of course, I am a little bit of an Anglophile, so I go for that kind of thing.

Thank you for the recommendation!

with his comments about Manafort.

He was probably one of the top counter-intelligence officers in the FBI.

bias, but that he has always worked to protect the interests of the US. I believe him and the book he wrote. We knew from the getgo when this Conman came down those escalators, that this was no ordinary candidate. Remember Felix Sater's words?

“Our boy can become president of the USA and we can engineer it,” Mr. Sater wrote in an email. “I will get all of Putins team to buy in on this, I will manage this process.”

I believe Strzok is telling the truth, and for that he is a patriot. Everything that has happened from 2015 when he announced his candidacy to now - the Con's relationship with Putin, all the secrecy surrounding his meetings with Russians, the way he invited Russian meddling, etc. - it all adds up.

Oh look another book telling us how bad Trump is and what he got away with that no one stops him.

I feel like we are all out in the arena with the lions and Trump is riding his chariot around us laughing as we are being torn by the lions.

How they originally signed off on the investigation into tRUMP & Associates and nobody objected then. Seemed like there was something more to the story when he pointed out specific people to ask, regarding Republicans.

Was he telegraphing a breadcrumb trail to follow that he cannot publicly comment about?

thought it was a great interview overall,

However, I thought Rachel missed something when Strzok said that he felt that the compromise was financial. However, on Tuesday, Cohen said that the financial interests wouldn't have occurred until a site was set and that no sites were set for a Trump Moscow projects.

Was Strzok inferring that there are other financial ties or was Cohen out of the loop?
