Politics : Trump's Russian Connection - Timeline - The reason Trump dropped Flynn

It's damning. Normally Trump will let anything his team does slide, no matter how ridiculous and ethically questionable, but here he's being uncharacteristically careful.

---

July 8, 2016 - Trump associate Carter Page visits Moscow and receives an offer of equity from Russia in a massive Russian oil deal if Trump will lift US/EU sanctions. These sanctions have crippled the Russian economy and hamstrung their oligarchy.

---

---

July 18, 2016 - Trump's team makes one tweak to the RNC platform: a pro-Russia softening of our stance on their invasion of Ukraine/Crimea.

---

---

July 22, 2016 - Wikileaks dumps the DNC emails on the eve of the Democratic National Convention, helping hold down Clinton's favorability among an incensed left and boosting Trump's RNC bump while holding Clinton to her lowest polling of the cycle.

---

---

July 27, 2016 - Trump tells the press that he would consider lifting sanctions on Russia and "jokingly" instructs Russia to continue to hack Clinton "if they're listening." It would be his last press conference of the election.

---

---

Now, of course, we know that:
The hacking was directed by Russia to help Trump win the election.

Wikileaks timed their dumps to hurt Clinton's campaign.

---

What has the Trump team been up to since then?

---

Trump advisor Carter Page is under investigation for his ties to Russia. He's continued to visit Moscow in spite of that investigation.
The man who most likely offered Page the deal to offer to Trump was found dead from gun shot wounds in the back of his car in Moscow in December. The Russian state press has called his death a heart attack since the initial report (in the back of his car, in an alley).

---

---

Trump advisor Paul Manafort, who left his official role as campaign chair last summer, is under investigation for his ties to Russia. Manafort reemerged after the election to advise Trump on cabinet positions

---

---

Rex Tillerson, former Exxon CEO, emerged as a dark horse candidate for Secretary of State shortly thereafter. Tillerson has extensive business ties to Russian oil and lobbied for a reduction in sanctions while at Exxon. He has deep ties to the company that offered Carter Page the equity deal, may be hiding oil assets in offshore tax shelters as he has in the past, and has been awarded the Russian Order of Friendship honor by Putin.

---

---

Former military intelligence officer, and Trump's National Security Advisor, Gen. Michael Flynn is under investigation for his communications with Russia following a December increase in sanctions by Pres. Obama. The Trump team have defended those calls with various conflicting explanations. After getting kicked out of the Obama DIA for his insubordination and islamaphobia, Flynn - the veteran intelligence office, cozied up to Putin.

---

---

Finally there is Trump advisor Roger Stone - a former business partner to Paul Manafort who cut his teeth in politics as one of Nixon's dirty trixsters. Stone outed himself as a back-channel communicator between Wikileaks's Assagne and the Trump campaign back in November. In his spare time before the election, Stone led the charge to cement the election as rigged in case of a Clinton victory. He is also under investigation by US intelligence.

---

---

During the campaign many described Trump as a useful idiot of Russia. His actions since then may determine that an underestimation.
Trump is speaking with Putin soon regarding the lifting of sanctions.
Leaks, unsubstantiated though given the above hardly far fetched, have identified Trump as a Russian asset cultivated over at least the last five years.
Allegations have emerged that Russia has both the carrot of the oil money and the stick of kompromat - incriminating evidence used as blackmail - to encourage Trump's pro-Putin action.

---

---

Russia has arrested two high ranking Russian cyber intelligence officials for treason - potentially because of their role as US spies.
A third Russian hacker is currently in a US-Russian tug of war while in jail in Prague, with a potential connection to the Huma Abedin emails that were discovered in October and which may have tipped the election to Trump.

---

---

Russian officials are celebrating the election of Trump and are joyous over their efforts to elect him.

---

---

John McCain laments that we have no unified response to Russian cyber-intrusion, which he likened to an act of war.

---

Let's revisit Rex W Tillerson, the ex CEO of ExxonMobil who has been appointed to Secretary of State? Well we know that

---

Tillerson was given around 2 million Exxon shares valued at $181 million at current prices - to be vested over next 10 years. Exxon agreed to cancel the shares and just put the cash value into a blind investment trust (with no oil shares). He has apparently also sold his current 600,000 shares.
However, we don't know if Tillerson has connections to Exxon through undisclosed offshore companies. For example it was reported in Dec that leaked files showed he was a Director of a Russian subsidiary of Exxon called Exxon Neftegas, which had never been publicly reported. Exxon has said he is no longer a Director. But Exxon has created more than 67 offshore companies in the Bahamas alone.

---

---

We also know that Tillerson personally negotiated with Sechin a massive oil deal between Rosneft & ExxonMobil that was put on hold due to sanctions. It's estimated the deal could be worth upward of $500 billion.

Yup. all fake news.

What did Trump do today?

April 2016..I know someone who has a birthday that month.

I was being sarcastic, I believe every word of what you posted. And what difference does April 16 have to do with anything? Or what group I post in?

What did Trump do today?

Oh okay, you can't never tell.

bump*

What did Trump do today?

Bump.

The big question is was he directly involved in the Russian hacking per the Steele dossier that has been partly substantiated.





The word idiot was invented for Trump.

Well we know that the U.S. Intel community has substantiated some of the dossier, basically times of certain meetings, etc.

But the salacious stuff (Russian pee hookers) has not been substantiated, and probably never will be. Proof of that lies in Kremlin hands and it will remain there. Those guys know it's value. It is perfect blackmail material against Trump and it can only remain so so long as it does not become public. Once it's public, it is worthless too them.

Interesting.

YOU WIN


Dumbest thing posted so far today




You don't have to stand tall, but you do have to stand up!

I win because it's stupid? Trump voters have very different standards. ROFL!!

How so?

That's how Trump won, by being an idiot, resonates with all of his voters.

Do you think he'll be impeached for his Russian dealings?








The word idiot was invented for Trump.

The economic warfare on Russia from the US is totally uncalled for and a dick move clearly orchestrated by the ultra elite of this country.

The US citizens of this country DO NOT want continued aggressive towards Russia in the name of ideology, which is a masquerade for the US trying to have a monopoly on the global economy.

We want to be friends with them. WE'RE NOT AT WAR WITH THEM. The only people who still think there is a Cold War are FEAR MONGERS.

Everything Trump has done has been in the interest of diplomacy with one the world's most successful nations. There is no reason whatsoever to complain about it except because of an irrational hate for Trump.

As far as hacking goes, GOOD! Don't give hackers something to expose you with, and them become powerless. If you have a bunch of secrets of crimes you commit, they will come out eventually. I don't care WHO exposes them. Just because Russia did it and wants some gratitude for it, there is ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with that.

Wow, stupidity on a whole new level. ROFL!

Awww look. Parrot's feelings are hurt for being called stupid and now projects it on everyone else. What a classic case of butthurt.

Did you even read what you wrote. If you can't see the problems you're not only stupid but completely unhinged and detached from reality. It'd funny if it wasn't so sad.

What you wrote was all conspiracy theory bull.

This post needs to be bumped.

Now go home and get your *beep* shine box.

Democrats and their media friends are certainly trying hard to come up with an excuse for losing to Trump, aren't they?

Too bad the Dems also lost at every level of the election including Congress, State offices, and Governors.

I guess the Russians were behind all that too, eh?

If you guys want to win some elections, you might want to stop making excuses and start looking at the douchebag behavior that turned off so many voters all over the country. People agree with Dems on a lot of issuesmaybe start talking about them instead of attacking cops, pushing the SJW agenda, and claiming global warming is going to doom everyone?

Almost all this stuff is made up. Jesus, this is it?

No, there is plenty more. Just wait for it, it'll be around shortly.




Farewell Transmission

Source? Debunk each one you think is wrong. Didn't think so. Loser.

Interesting.
