Donald Campaign Contacted Russians Leading Up To Election

That is huge. Wow.

But is it just talk?
 
To be fair, Issa has to make a hard left. He's going to lose in 2018 if he doesn't and he probably will lose regardless. It's still important that a GOP attack dog is calling for a special prosecutor though.

Issa: Trump-Russia probe requires a special prosecutor

You cannot have somebody, a friend of mine Jeff Sessions, who was on the campaign and who is an appointee," the California Republican said in response to a question from host Bill Maher. "You're going to need to use the special prosecutor's statute and office to take — not just to recuse. You can't just give it to your deputy. That's another political appointee."

Because

A) its POLITICO
B) it's really stupid
C) if there was a grand scheme to blackmail the most powerful country in the world it wouldn't be done via typos to someone's daughter
D) the "source" is an anonymous message board post

I would think at least Politico would require 50 posts before using them as a source

Manafort confirmed the authenticity of the texts.
 
just because you do not like the facts that are being stated does not make them fake......remember that Donald
 
I like how the phrase "fake news" has been repurposed. It's really impressive. There were legitimately fake news services HQed in like Tunisia or somewhere just churning out click bait throughout 2016. Now Donald got people using that phrase for the Grey Lady. The man is one hell of a promoter.

So then what's more likely in your mind?

1) these texts are legit and someone just so happened to hack Paul Manaforts daughter and found them

2). Someone who had already gotten access to her phone sent the text then posted anonymously on the web

Also, is this Sergei person still alive or is he someone who mysteriously died recently, because then it's just a bad fiction writer who knows how to hack an iPhone .

Huh? Manafort confirmed he got the same texts on his phone from the same person his daughter did.
