McConnell, Ryan, Gov. Walker up to their eyeballs in Russian money

the election on many levels.

So he knew he could stop Garland's nomination.

They are all taritors.

And we need serious action to deal with them.

McConnell. His stench is getting more pronounced as we read and type.

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=8922931

There are reminders all over DU that it took two years to bring Nixon down. We don't have two years. Trump is taking a sledge hammer to our government. Also, if we don't get the entire upper echelon of republican leadership, this cancer will grow back.

McConnell is even more of a crook than I thought! And I am a Kentuckian!!!!! My God, I'm ashamed of myself.

.... Mitch McConnell know if he waited until after the election he would
have a different choice for SCOTUS?


Treason and a coup.

His wife's job in the cabinet.

liberal. This was another thing that bothered me at the time.

It's why he told Obama he would politicize any announcement Obama Administration made re: Russian interference...He had to keep a lid on his own treason until results could be 'certified'.

McConnell is hateful to the core. If he were a normal kind of asshole, he would honestly believe he were doing it for country, but he's not. He's doing this for himself and his own power and he knows it and he doesn't give a fuck if WE know it or not. He's a rascist, misogynistic insecure fuckhead for whom all the money and personal power available to him will NEVER be enough to fill whatever void exists in his hateful black soul.

I'm not in favor of the death penalty. But I want him tried for treason and then HANGED.

Elaine Chao, who somehow gets a job after being a miserable failure as Bewsh's Labor Secretary: "Thanks, 'hubby'! (wink)"



. . . . is it pitchfork and torch time yet?

Thanx US Supreme Court.

In Ohio in 2016 unending TV spots that were funded w/dark money
blamed Ted Strickland for outsourcing jobs something Rob Portman
was helping to get done when he was working for w bush.

Yours will go down as the most corrupt SCOTUS in history with Citizen's United being the worst, most damaging ruling EVER by a SCOTUS!!!!

What was your payoff John?

was just as bad or worse.

Although this court's roll back on civil rights/voting rights protections
were all over last year's elections.

the Presidency going to the highest bidder whenever a foreign government doesn't interfere. It is quickly becoming the exception rather than the rule to have our President elected by the people!

.... on the Court.

I think he must be filthy dirty with Russian money.

Roy Blunt...anyone seeing that name anywhere?

I thought it may be bullshit, but apparently it's Treason...

I have a feeling our governor is using some of Walker's tricks to rule Iowa. Sure sounds like Walker.

Ping May.

He doesn't have a blog/platform where he lays it all out? I found this article on buzzfeed:

https://www.buzzfeed.com/charliewarzel/blue-detectives

I also see where he has a gofundme: Trump-Russia + Transition Coverage by Adam Khan - GoFundMe

The problem with the twitter is that it doesn't lock down - all in one place - the theory, the background, the data, the evidence.

If I have time tonight (Gubernatorial Candidate Forum so late late late night) I'll try to capture them and push them to Rachel Maddow. The things I see here from twitter I email over - condensed into one email - once or twice a week.

This way the real journalists can pull them into a format that reaches the masses.

I don't have a Twitter account. I haven't even been on Facebook since last August. I was so disgusted with the primary election and apparently now the trolls and how it affected my long-time friends and family. So, I'm glad that I found DU.

and even then, we might have that "look forward, not back" bullshit that we've had before. More and more beginning to think this country is irreparably fucked....

He is just as guilty as the rest of the traitors.

Where is the special prosecutor, not an investigation, but an outside investigation team to compile their crimes?

We KNOW Russia was interfering with the election process.
That is an undisputed fact.
No one in either political party (outside of the Fairy Tale White House) believes nothing happened.
The real issue is the extent of the corruption and the extent of the reach of Putin into American politics.

Where is the GOP outrage machine? Why is it utterly silent?
This is the party of Reagan...MR. "Tear-Down-This-Wall" himself? Mr. "I-Won-The-Cold-War"?
They spent MILLIONS of tax payer dollars on Benghazi because they had nothing on Obama so the next logical target was the likely nominee to run in 2016. It was nakedly obvious and transparent to all except the dumb-ass low/no information voters...
They spent HUNDREDS of hours in open committee sessions, generating sound bites and video clips.
They were incensed about it as "the worst scandal in American history"...

And now?
When we ARE discussing the worst scandal in American electoral history?
Crickets...tumbleweeds....a forlorn whistling wind, blowing through their empty heads and creating a sound like something out of a Roger Corman horror film!

This was NOT only an attack with money and propaganda...the voting machines in Michigan and Pennsylvania and Ohio and Wisconsin should have been 100% investigated and the results made public after 3 separate, independent teams would have been given full access to them and the reported results.

I was sick to my stomach watching the election returns. I still don't believe this result was on the level. I KNOW it was not achieved legally (illegal foreign funding and contacts with the campaign and transition teams are irrefutable at this point). This should be the lead story EVERY DAY and EVERY NIGHT until it is 100% resolved. The government should be totally shut down on policy and agendas frozen until the air is cleared and the report of a non-partisan, independent commission or prosecutor is delivered on ALL of the events surrounding the election of 2016.

We are living in an occupied nation at the moment, under an installed but not freely elected (or winning) administration. That fake government is actively dismantling the programs and departments that exist to improve the health and welfare of the people at the behest of a fool and his merry band of criminals.

Russia paid GOP off.
Russia paid for hackers and bots to flood idiot America with propaganda they were too stupid and gullible (or just flat out misogynistic) to see through.
Russia was able to influence some people to vote against their own health, wealth and self-interest because of e-mail or "stamina" or "relatability".
Russia bought Trump through loans when no one else would keep his charade afloat.
Putin owns his boy in DC and the Syria kerfuffle is further proof of this...a real crisis has never looked so pre-canned and fabricated in hindsight than that entire incident.

The election was proven to be influenced - and I believe stolen - by foreign agents who have no allegiance to the USA , yet the party of hyper-partisan, overt and disgusting "patriotism" (really just jingoism with barely any camouflage), is utterly OK with this because their team "won"?

Trump is an illegitimate president on every conceivable level. His cabinet is a historical laughing stock and we're only 90+ days into this mess. His policies are incoherent and un-tethered to reality, as are his daily proclamations on Twitter. This coup d'etat has happened and nothing is being done to stop it. Protests are easily ignored - see "War, Iraq" as a depressing exhibit why. The fact that the largest political scandal in US electoral history is seeing answered demanded above all other government business is a damning indictment of just how sick this society is become...

Guess we're all too enamored of those $425 pre-mudded jeans...

The real question is - how deep does this go? Who is responsible? And who allowed it to happen? Was it the billionaires? Was it the FBI? Was it the NRA? Was it the whole GOP? Was it Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan? Was it Trump himself? Was it all of the above?

Why is this taking so long? So much damage can be done in so little time...the more time these people stay in power the more damage they will try to inflict.

They are not "useless", people need to know, but at the government level, at the FBI/CIA level, unless something happens, and I don't see anything happen, at that level they are useless so far.

In other words, they have the proofs, but if these proofs remain in a file cabinet then they are useless.

with Citizens United. Foreign powers deciding our elections. We can thank the evil supreme court for another appointed fascist.

These apparent Russia connections. A brief web search seems to indicate KB were once supporting Walker and later not.

The billionaires are the real criminals in all of this - the Kochs, the Mercers, the Waltons, Erik Prince, Exxon Mobil, - Trump is their puppet. But not a single one wi'll serve jail time.

Disgusting, revolting, sickening and infuriating. I wonder if the few Republicans who are NOT on the traitor train are patriotic or jealous.

is guilty of collusion with Russia, im so old I remember when repukes were against Russia, not sucking the teat.

here:

...has brought us. Don't have to disclose sources.

It has and will keep scooping out the heart and soul of Democracy.

I am guessing. When Trump took hits from the market, he probably started to realize that his Russian connections were, in fact, the answer to getting him elected... through the numerous oligarchs billions and mob ties.

The Russian fertilizer king dude owns a big stake in a company that got tax incentives, but the jobs never appeared. Governor McCrory privatized the department that deals with economic development and they take private donations. It's could be coincidental...

But weird things are happening, and they always seem to involve Russians and the GOP.

would help us ascertain the truth of their traitorous activities?

All The President's Men and All In The Family. How do you spell c-o-l-l-u-s-i-o-n?
