Everyone here should find this PREPOSTEROUS! Too bad it isn't. PUTIN asked TRUMP last year in Helsinki for the ex-Ambassador to Russia under Obama--Michael McFaul be given access to RUSSIA to be interviewed. I have no idea what the parameters were. Trump told him he thought it was a good idea. Anyone and everyone who knows anything about foreign policy and RUSSIA WENT THROUGH THE ROOF! It was undoubtedly one of the most bizarre moments TRUMP HAS HAD and he has had MORE bizarre moments than any human in a lifetime.
I've worried about McFaul ever since. I don't think it about as much until I see him on camera being interviewed as an SME on Russia. (I had a very real fear that he and his family's normal routine was CURTAILED ever since Helsinki). I'm a peon news junkie and as soon as I read the headline tonight, McFaul popped into my head--BEFORE I got to his name and to see who was speculating about it.
I have no idea WHY this particular American, an Ambassador, is on PUTIN'S hitlist and why PUTIN asked TRUMP FOR HIM last year.
Former four-star general speculates whistleblower scandal could involve Trump giving Putin an American

It remains unclear exactly what were the issues cited by the whistleblower who expressed concern at actions of President Donald Trump as a threat to national security, at least one of which involved a promise the president allegedly made in a phone call with a foreign leader.
But former Gen. Barry McCaffrey had a chilling thought about what it could possibly be — and posted his speculation on Twitter:

SHEER SPECULATION. Is it possible that the WHISTLEBLOWER issue was Trump discussing with Putin handing over our former US Ambassador to Moscow Mike McFaul to Russian authorities? https://twitter.com/mcfaul/status/1174776804487204865 …

I stand proud of MY TDS if I share it with a RETIRED SEC of State and a 4 star General. Who knew I'd be sharing the same critical thinking skills with such accomplished men?
Outrage erupts over Trump-Putin ‘conversation’ about letting Russia interrogate ex-U.S. diplomat Michael McFaul
Both President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke about Russian interference in U.S. elections at a news conference on July 16 in Helsinki. (The Washington Post)

Follow Thursday’s updates here: White House: Trump opposes Putin’s request to interview current and former American officials
At this week’s summit in Helsinki, Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed what President Trump described as an “incredible offer” — the Kremlin would give special counsel Robert S. Mueller III access to interviews with Russians who were indicted after they allegedly hacked Democrats in 2016. In return, Russia would be allowed to question certain U.S. officials it suspects of interfering in Russian affairs.
One of those U.S. officials is a former U.S. ambassador to Moscow, Michael McFaul, a nemesis of the Kremlin because of his criticisms of Russia’s human rights record.
On Wednesday, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders declined to rule out the Kremlin’s request to question McFaul and other Americans. Asked during the daily press briefing whether Trump is open to the idea of having McFaul questioned by Russia, Sanders said President Trump is “going to meet with his team” to discuss the offer.
“There was some conversation about it” between Trump and Putin, Sanders said, “but there wasn’t a commitment made on behalf of the United States. And the president will work with his team, and we’ll let you know if there’s an announcement on that front.”
The willingness of the White House to contemplate handing over a former U.S. ambassador for interrogation by the Kremlin drew ire and astonishment from current and former U.S. officials. Such a proposition is unheard of. So is the notion that the president may think he has the legal authority to turn anyone over to a foreign power on his own.
Former secretary of state John F. Kerry
that the offer was “not something that should require a half second of consultation. Dangerous.”
“The administration needs to make it unequivocally clear that in a million years this wouldn’t be under consideration, period. Full stop,” Kerry tweeted.

Another "Seinfeld" thread....about nothing, left wing gossip...from a year ago. This is like the "hypothetical" obstruction charges.....attempting to prosecute a situation that has never happened.....the little Hitler want a be...NALDER is finding out you cannot prosecute NOTHING.
FYI: The leaked memo obtained through a supposed leak? What's the problem.....WHITE SUPERMACISTS have always been on the left. The KKK, Jim Crow, Slavery....and most recently look at the liberal in Canada....guilty of painting his face black. I see no problem whatsoever in calling a black kettle...….a black kettle. The Big Lie...white supremacists are right wing....yeah like Hitler wasn't a social fascist.

HERE.. educate yourself FOR ONCE beyond Raw Sewage..if this even happened
Trump i allowed to talk to foreign leaders any damn thing he wants.
Looks like it's in part about Ukraine (if even real) ,but Ukraine has a lot of moving piece.
1. Biden corruption
2 Donbass
3. military aid
4. NATO expansion
But since you are stuck in the sewage -at least get a clue https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/19/u...core-ios-share
How much of a dumb asshole does one have to be not to be able to comprehend an analogical comparison? Cleary the context of the post made it clear this thread was a SEINFELD..... A SHOW ABOUT NOTHING. And.....your retort just proves how correct the analogy was. Another crow egg found in an eagles nest? A scavenger pretending to be a predator.
You better flesh it out better than that, man. Or are you reading some BS talking points from some BS source? Your link to the NYT is what I posted last night. Putin is as good a TARGET as any other as an educated guess since TRUMP is still 'trying to suck his dick'! And we don't why!!
NADLER has a long way to go.

Grand juries, high level INTEL OFFICIALS going to their OWN IGs, subpoenas flying and mountains of 'INK' and it is about NOTHING? Really?
You can bet your ass Seinfeld and all his ex-writers think it is something.
PS Has Seinfeld driven to THIS WH for a coffee klatch? I doubt it!

Yeah....its Trump that is the socialist, not the democrats who attempted to use RUSSIAN MISINFORMATION to entrap our President....the Steele dossier paid for by the DNC. Looks like it was Hillary that left lipstick on Putin's tiddy whiteys. I wonder where this queen bitch is right now.....no one has heard much from her ever since Barr and Durham arrived on the scene.
