McConnell knew about this in October, kept his mouth shut long enough for his wife to secure a cabinet position, and now suddenly is concerned. Better late than never?
Has it occurred to anyone here that the real long term conflict now appears to be with China, and therefore having better relations with Russia, who also have their potential problems with China, is one way to strengthen our position with China.
Because Trump is causing problems with China and it 100000% in Putin's Pocket.
Trump's SOS choice has been given the HIGHEST CIVILIAN AWARD form Russia and Putin. It's an official STATE AWARD.

Can we stop fantasizing about Trump not being president? It's so silly. Even if the electors decide to fuck with our entire system of government and send the election to the House, the House is going to vote for Trump. Why wouldn't they? Their constituents voted for Trump and they want to get reelected.
Ten members of the Electoral College have signed a letter urging the Director of National Intelligence James Clapper to provide them with classified briefings on Russia’s hacking and cyber involvement in the U.S. elections.
....
"We further emphasize Alexander Hamilton’s assertion in Federalist Paper #68 that a core purpose of the Electoral College was to prevent a 'desire in foreign powers to gain an improper ascendant in our councils.' The United States intelligence community has now concluded with 'high confidence' that a foreign power, namely Russia, acted covertly to interfere in the presidential campaign with the intent of promoting Donald Trump’s candidacy," the letter states.
"The Electors require to know from the intelligence community whether there are ongoing investigations into ties between Donald Trump, his campaign or associates, and Russian government interference in the election, the scope of those investigations, how far those investigations may have reached, and who was involved in those investigations," it reads.

He's not wrong you just seem not to care. Must hate America, I guess
The US national anthem under Trump
Trump has only increased his involvement with people with Russian ties. He's publicly opposing even investigating the possibility of Russian involvement in the hacks. I think it's possible there was some partnership.
This is next level right here folks. I really only expected one of our posters to be on this trade. Didn't expect you to be a co-conductor.

OBLIGATORY DISCLAIMER- Trump won the election. He is our President. Hopefully, he will do a good job.
That being said, it is funny to watch fans of the umpteen million investigations into a private email server, the same people who loved to refer to the Clinton Foundation as a "slush fund," get outraged at the possibility of investigations into Russia's influence on this election. Those same people, who were certain countries purchased access to the US Government through the CGI, see no possibility that PEOTUS Trump hiring numerous staff with ties to Russia could be anything negative.
Its also sad to watch Wrangor's descent from Obama voter to enthusiastic Chris Christie supporter to principled (lol) Gary Johnson supporter to what I can only assume will be full throated support of Trump within the next 6 months.
