Report: Trump Admin Secretly Pressured State Dept To Lift Russia Sanctions JUNE 2, 2017 9:51 AM
This campaign to pressure the State Department is one of several efforts by Trump associates to relieve economic pressure on Russia. Ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn spoke to Russia’s ambassador to the U.S. about lifting new sanctions the day the Obama administration announced them in late December. Trump’s personal attorney also reportedly hand-delivered to Flynn’s office a Ukrainian lawmaker’s “peace plan” that called for ending U.S. sanctions against Russia.

Senate passes Russia sanctions bill, pushing back against Trump Thu June 15, 2017
The Senate was nearly unanimous on Thursday passing a bill that would slap Russia with new sanctions and give Congress the power to review any White House attempts to roll them back.
The Senate approved the bill 98-2, with Republican Rand Paul of Kentucky and Independent Bernie Sanders of Vermont voting against the measure. The bill, which includes both Russian and Iranian sanctions, now heads to the House, which still needs to pass it before it goes to President Donald Trump's desk.

Greg Palast: How Racist Voter Suppression Could Cost Jon Ossoff the Georgia Election
The race for the 6th District in Georgia is the most expensive congressional race in U.S. history. On Tuesday, voters will head to the polls to fill the seat left vacant after Tom Price resigned to become secretary of health and human services. Polls show Democrat Jon Ossoff and Republican Karen Handel in a virtual tie. But civil rights leaders fear that racist voter suppression tactics could cost Ossoff the election. For more, we speak with investigative reporter Greg Palast and air a report he produced in Georgia.

The GOP’s Attack on Voting Rights Was the Most Under-Covered Story of 2016
there were 25 debates during the presidential primaries and general election and not a single question about the attack on voting rights, even though this was the first presidential election in 50 years without the full protections of the Voting Rights Act. Fourteen states had new voting restrictions in place for the first time in 2016—including crucial swing states like Wisconsin and Virginia—yet we heard nary a peep about it on Election Day except from outlets like The Nation. This was the biggest under-covered scandal of the 2016 campaign.

Did Trump let loose Russia/Hackers using Flynn/Kushner/WikiLeaks during Election? Trump told Kushne
Did Trump let loose Russia/Hackers using Flynn/Kushner/WikiLeaks during Election?
Trump told Kushner to tell Flynn to Let Loose The Dogs! Meaning Let Loose Russian Hackers and all means necessary, at the same time Trump said on TV to Hack Hillary's Emails, so we even had the head of the FBI also give information he knew was false to downgrade Hillary. Nobody thought Trump would win but they never gave up thinking it would hurt Hillary no matter what, even if it takes Russian and hired hackers with WikiLeaks.
Give Flynn, a US General immunity and it will break loose the whole story. I think Flynn was under incredible stress to even having a nervous breakdown.
This is the only thing that makes any sense.
Israeli intelligence source: We must reassess what info we share with US report
Israeli intelligence is reassessing what information they choose to share with the country’s “greatest ally,” the United States, according to a Wednesday report in the Hebrew-language daily Yedioth Ahronoth.
“We can’t hand over our crown jewels,” an intelligence source warned following Monday’s bombshell Washington Post story revealing that US President Donald Trump had disclosed highly classified intelligence to Russians officials in the White House last week.
The country supplying the intelligence to the US was identified in the Post story only as “an ally that has access to the inner workings of the Islamic State.” Sources told The New York Times on Tuesday that Israel was that country.
The Yedioth source assessed that the “highly sensitive” information disclosed by Trump to Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and its US ambassador Sergey Kislyak was handed over recently in several meetings with US officials on the situation in Syria. The intelligence officials speculate that Trump presented this information as a reprimand to the Russians.
