WaPo: Kushner wanted secret communications channel with Kremlin
- Thread starter B-Dubs
- Start date
And meanwhile...WaPo is gloating on Reddit, going hard on the memes.
What's the name of this meme? I saw one using Nash from SF5 awhile ago, lol.

so what you're saying is, trump will be on twitter soon confirming everything.
The senate committee has already escalated its interest into Trump's campaign documentation.
Bannon is and always has been a very misguided, perverted "patriot".
My read was that that was not in response to this revelation.
Reuters just taking piss on Kush's grave now.
Reuters Exclusive: Trump son-in-law had undisclosed contacts with Russian envoy - sources
To sum both WaPo stories and Reuters up:

Does everyone in that damn family have and/or want Russia connections? I need evidence to prove someone doesn't at this point.

Who sent the anon letter to the WaPo in December?
That HAS to be keeping trump up at night.
Look for bruises on the upper arms of Melania.
The list of people who could have done it are small. His bodyguard. His daughter. His wife.
Who sent the killer tax return page from the late 90s pre-election?

The tax return was almost certainly his ex wife. I forget the details now but to me that ones not a mystery anymore.
Can't wake up
I think the answer is obvious.
he needed to finish what he started when he locked up Kushner sr
So I know it won't happen.
It's too movie-like and would likely have been caught by now
But holy shit would it be satisfying if it turned out somebody in his inner circle had flipped informant after seeing some of this shit, and is helping try to pin Trump.
But it was probably just Bannon trying to oust Kushner

Lewandowski? but he was gone.
Manafort? but he was gone.
Bannon? he would have loathed Kushner.
THINK OF THE IMPLICATIONS. If someone on the transition team knew, then trump would have known for sure, it was _strategy_. This couldn't be a Kushner loose-cannon project.

Plot Twist: Bannon is an informant and all the terrible things he's done is just a cover.

Eh, don't really care if anything actually happens or not at this point. I mean, even if Trump and company were to be completely kicked to the curb, impeached, the whole works, per the precedent that was established with Nixon, whoever comes next (Pence, a Democratic President, whatever) will just pardon them anyway. I don't really expect any of them to be behind bars, particularly not for any significant amount of time.
At this point, I'm just satisfied if this continues to completely tank Trump's approval ratings (and Congress's in the process) and ensures he'll be nothing more than a one term President. As long as I can get that, I'm good.
There's literally no chance

I thought briefly of the Pence thing but then would he feel so alone he'd contact the press? wouldn't he want to talk to Ryan and the I.C directly?

They're all shitbirds.
Now we just have to make them do 8 counts until their hearts explode.
Kushner's attorney on Reuter's article, via CNN live:
"Mr Kushner participated in thousands of calls in this time period. He has no recollection of the calls as described. We have asked (Reuters) for the dates of such alleged calls so we may look into it and respond, but we have not received such information."

What about Reince Preibus?
Woolsey.
Ex-CIA, publicly left the transition team in January but had actually left way back in December. Very unhappy with what he saw was happening during the transition and Trump's plans for the IC post-inauguration.

Hope it's comfy under that bus, Kushner. You were always meant to be the fall man.
What ever Trump has and has destroyed his brain functions must be contagious...
I like how they asked it as a question instead of presenting it as a statement, lol
"doesn't that mean he's not in trouble?"
How are they all so dumb
How has America lasted this long
Are we all going to find out that South Park episode is true, earth is a TV show, and the people running the America plot all went on strike and have been replaced with whoever they could pull in off the street?

You have to wonder what people who supported Trump at the CIA and FBI think about all of this. Does their professional experience outweigh their partisan inklings?
He didn't recall that one billion dollar loan he floated that he's personal guarantor of $300m of, either, eh? Remembering things: it's harder than anyone thought it would be.
