The video is absolutely brutal. The best is that Sessions's spokesman confirmed the meetings. Not COMPLETELY out of the ordinary for a Senator on his committee to meet with an Ambassador, but WaPo checked with all of the members on that specific committee and NO OTHER MEMBERS contacted the Russian Ambassador. Then he lied about it. https://twitter.com/BraddJaffy/status/837131623124647940 Chris Cillizza had a good quote: "Where there's smoke and smoke and smoke and smoke and smoke and smoke, there's usually fire"

They ran a botnet that was dedicated to retweeting anti-Clinton news stories, including fake news. Might seem trivial, but how many "That's Awful!" shares did you see on Facebook from 60 year old aunts and uncles who voted red.

Zeris posted:Not playing devil's advocate - actually wondering - what are the list of ways Russia interfered, with an outcome useful to Trump, in the election? Pretty strong suspicion that Trump is funded almost entirely with Russian money by now. He bankrupted a god drat casino. He's a loving terrible businessman and has been under water for so long no western banks would touch anything he does with a twenty foot pole for decades. Yet somehow mysteriously he's still doing his thing and the most fickle, two-faced, disingenuous person to ever walk the face of this planet that has been on both sides of every issue in the same conversation has only ever been rock-solid and completely unchanging about two things; not releasing his tax returns and praising Putin.

Doesn't matter if he's a russian spy so much as he's got a few hundred million in loans from Russian banks and i'm starting to believe that the 19% Rosneft sale really was him benefiting.

Russia undermining Clinton and Russia colluding with Trump staff are not the same thing. I'm not talking about objective reality, I'm talking about what's provable. They could have done everything in that IC report and not said a word to Trump or his cronies. Unless they were spelling it out to the GOP campaign and demanding favors in return -- unless that's what was in those conversations -- or whatever, then I don't get it. It looks stupid -- Sessions lied, obviously, but until it's clear what he lied about, there's no saying whether this will last or snowball to something worth resigning over.

Here's Sessions's statement: https://twitter.com/chrisgeidner/status/837158913334251522 WaPo says the meeting was in Sessions's office. WSJ says it was a phone call. If it was a phone call to the Russian Ambassador, you bet your rear end that line is tapped and recorded.
